Southfield
bars rabbi
'speech
under Nazi
threats
K DETROIT (UPI)- A subuiban
Detroit judge ruled yesterday the foun-
der of the militant Jewish Defense
-League may not speak at the Southfield
Civic Center because of a potential for
violence if Nazis showed up.
An Oakland County Circuit Court
judge said the presence of Rabbi Meir
Kahane could spark violence if Nazis
showed up, as promised, to protest the
speech. The judge ordered the speech
barred on the grounds the lives of 150
other individuals participating in
*unrelated activities at the civic center
would be endangered.
"RABBI MEIR Kahane, no matter
what the court decision, will in fact
speak at the Southfield Civic Center," a
spokesman for the JDL said after the
ruling just hours before the 8 p.m.
speech was to take place.
A speech by Kahane in Ann Arbor
Monday night was also cancelled but a
small Jewish organization on the
University of Michigan campus took
over sponsorship and found another
location where the rabbi was able to
speak.
Uniformed city and campus police, as
well as an undercover city detective,
showed up at the speech because of
death threats Kahane and his suppor-
ters allegedly received.
THERE WERE no incidents of
violence, officials said, but members of
the audience heckled the JDL leader,
calling him a "fascist."
Kahane had filed suit Monday to for-
ce Southfield to provide a room for the
speech. The rabbi said the city,
pressured by mainline Jewish groups,
broke a contract for his appearance on
grounds he had "a reputation for
violence."
Kahane said he has been in the United
States 21/ weeks on an eight-week

MOSCOW (AP) - Communist Party
chief Yuri Andropov won a seat on the
leadership council of the national
Parliament yesterday in what was con-
sidered a step toward becoming
president of the Soviet Union and
thereby consolidating his new power.
Andropov, who took over as party
general secretary following the death of
Leonid Brezhnev on Nov. 10, was elec-
ted to the Presidium of the Supreme
Soviet during the opening day of a two-
day session in the ornate grand palace
of the Kremlin.
THE 1,500 delegates were expected to
vote for president today. The body is
empowered by the constitution to fill
the post from among the Presidium's 48
members, but the real decision is
believed made by party leaders.
"None of the other people being men-
tioned as candidates for president is on
that board," commented a Western
diplomat who closely follows Kremlin
politics. "I'm willing to bet that we'll
find ourselves with one choice - An-
dropov."
Other candidates touted in the days
following Breshnev's death included
long-time Brezhnev aide Konstantin
Chernenko, 71, and Foreign Minister
Andrei Gromyko, 73. Neither was elec-
ted to the Presidium yesterday, apparen-
tly cutting them out of the running.
THE PRESIDENCY is largely a
ceremonial post in a nation where the
Parliament rubber stamps party
decisions, and primarily involves
protocol meetings with visiting heads of
state.
But Western analysts believe that if
Andropov assumes the job it would in-
dicate the strength of his power in the
ruling Politburo, as well as continuing a
tradition set by Brezhnev.

By KRISTIN STAPLETON
The Ann Arbor City Council took two
more steps toward helping those hurt
by federal budget cuts Monday night,
allocating more than $30,000 for two
human services programs.
The measures, approved
unanimously, will provide up to $17,750
to SAFE House, a refuge for battered
women, and $15,000 for two senior

citizen transportation programs.
QUESTIONS were raised at council
as to whether the city of Ann Arbor
should be responsible for funding SAFE
Houe, because only 30 percent of the
people helped at the facility are city
residents of Ann Arbor.
Gerald Jernigan (R-Fourth Ward said
although he was not opposed to giving
SAFE House some support, he didn't

consider it a "basic city service."
Joyce Chesbrough (R-Fifth Ward)
replied that SAFE House provides a
very valuable service to the city
because it helps to solve domestic
problems which might o4herwise
become police problems. "I think this
is money very well spent," she said.

Brezhnev, who became Communist
Party general secretary following the
ouster of Nikita Krushchev in 1964,
assumed the presideny in 1977. Before
then, however, he received a head-of-
state's welcome in trips abroad and
signed the SALT treaty with then-
President Nixon in1972.
KHRUSHCHEV held the post of
premier in addition to heading the par-
ty.

other Politburo members hold seats in

Ohioan becomes local hero as
bank error gives him $750,000

WARREN, Ohio (AP) - A man who
disappeared after a bank error put
three-quarters of a million dollars in his
account has become something of a folk
hero in this northeastern Ohio city.
"He was made a hero locally
because he's beaten the establishment
out of all this money," said Doug
Neuman, Niles city law director, who
was hired as a local attorney for a bank
trying to recover the money. "But to

me, he's no hero. He's more in the
nature of a bandit."
GUS DELINIKOS, 48, asked earlier
this year that $774.75 be transferred
from an account in Greece to the
Second National Bank in Warren.
Delinikos wanted the money to send
family members on a vacation.
But a misplaced decimal intervened,
and Second National received a wire
telling it that $774,750 had been credited

to Delinikos' account.
Second National called Delinikos on
June 21 to tell him the money had
arrived. Delinikos came in, looked at
the account, and said nothing, bank of-
ficials said. The teller suggested that
since it was such a large amount,
perhaps Delinikos should wait a day or
two before withdrawing it . Delinikos

TODAY
Rats really know how to eat
F YOU'RE worried about overstuffing yourself this
Thanksgiving you should turn your thoughts from turkey
and trimmings to rats. That's the opinion of Neil Rowland,
a University of Florida psychology professor who says rats
set a good example by always eating in moderation and
leaving room for dessert. "It's difficult to get a rat to eat a
very large amount of food unless he's been deprived," said
Rowland, an expert on the brain mechanisms that control
food intr a t nie "n d"toa t tinvamunts of this and that
