Vol. XCIII, No. 148 Copyright 1983, The Michigan Daily Ann Arbor, Michigan - Thursday, April 7, 1983 Ten Cents Eight Pages Ten Cents Eight Pages1 New Soviet missile threatens Europe WASHINGTON (AP) - The Soviet Union has developed a long-range land attack cruise missile which it may deploy on mobile launchers as a fresh threat to Western Europe, U.S. intelligence sources said yesterday. The missile, designated by intelligence officials as the SSCX-4, is said to have a range of nearly 1,900 miles, more than the American cruise, the GLCM, scheduled for deployment in Europe late this year. U.S. RECONNAISSANCE satellites recently detected what analysts believe is a possible mobile launcher for the SSCX-4 at a test center in the Soviet Union. It was described as a wheeled tractor-trailer vehicle big enough to launch four missiles. Intelligence analysts, speaking only on condition that they remain anonymous, said the Soviets might be able to move such missiles around quickly over long distances - and that they could bring most key targets in Western Europe within their range if they were deployed in Eastern European nations belonging to the Soviet-led Warsaw Pact.

Members of RHA and represen- tatives from the University's residence halls met at Mosher Jordan Dormitory last night to take nominations for secretary, treasurer, vice president, president, and national com- munications coordinator. No one, however, ran for the position for vice president. f OFFICERS SEEMED somewhat baf- fled at the reasons for the void in student-interest. President-elect Pam McCann said the tremendous turnover of students in dorms could be one reason for the lack of interest in last night's elections. Most of the present RHA members are sophomores, she explained, and are moving out of the dorms, thus making them ineligible to run.

About 5000 students cast their ballots during the two-day election, according to an unofficial tally and projection last night. The turnout was a 25 percent.in- crease from the past two elections, lagging behind the 1980 election by only 300 votes. MSA ELECTION Director Bruce Goldman attributed the boost in turnout to better publicity, heavy campaigning, and the fact that a doubling in the n~ni- ber of candidates this year garnered wider student support. The collection and verification of ballots continued late into the night. Today a computer will tabulate the votes to determine MSA president and vice president, the 37 seats on the assembly, and the results of the five ballot proposals. COMPUTER USE greatly expedites the tabulation process, Goldman said. Previously, the results were compiled See VOTER, Page 5 Daily Photo by JEFF SCHRIER Ready or not*... Here comes the pitch from Michigan hurler Dave Kopf. Kopf was more in- timidating than he appears as he held Western Michigan in check in yester- day's first game of a doubleheader sweep for the Wolverines which put their record at 17-1.

U-Cellar reports sales increase By JERRY ALIOTTA University Cellar Bookstore officials, who feared last June's move from the Michigan Union would cause a reduc- tion in sales, have reported a sales in- crease for the 1982-83 academic year. But the bookstore did not post a profit for last year because of-expenses associated with the move, the officials said. "BOOK RUSH is about exactly the same, but we are seeing more sales during the non-book rush months," said Bruce Weinburg, manager of the student-run U-Cellar. The Cellar's new location at 341 E. Liberty St. is three blocks from central campus, and managers were worried that the change would send customers to more conveniently located stores. But Ulrich's, a U-Cellar competitor, reported last week its sales haven't in- creased significantly over the previous year. "IT (THE U-Cellar move) has changed our clientele but we've had no drastic increase or decrease in our business;" said TonMusser, Ulrich's Manager. "We have lost old customers, but we've gained some new ones," he said. Weinburg agreed that the U-Cellar move has exchanged customers from one side of town for the other but he said it hasn't hurt business. "OUR SALES are up but our expen- ses are up too," Weinburg said. The Cellar accumulated large moving ex- penses last year, and sales were also impeded last summer due to a fire in- spection that was not completed until early August. Weinburg said he expects a fairly steady growth rate for the future. "We didn't expect any banner year (1982-83) but we do expect things to only get bet- ter, in terms of sales, from here for- ward." Officials at Follett's bookstore, another U-Cellar competitor, said they have been satisified with sales this past year, and that the U-Cellar move has not had any effect on their business located at State St., near Nickels Ar- cade. "IT'S BEEN pretty much the same as it has been for the last year or so,' said Lyle Leuk, manager of Folletts.

" Moot court competition challenges law students By GWENDY STANSBURY It's not every young lawyer who gets the chance to argue his or her case in front of a Supreme Court justice. But that's what six University law students did yesterday. The six prospective barristers each argued a hypothetical case before U.S. Supreme Court Justice John Stevens and four other judges in the Law School's 59th annual moot court com- petition. WINNING THE MOOT court com- petition is generally considered among the three highest honors in the Law School. Being valedictorian of the class and appointment to the Michigan Law Review are considered the other top honors. The team of third year law student Michael Kelly and second year student Stephen Marsh won over the team of third year students Lore Rogers and Judith Weisburgh in the competition's first case. Dwight Rabuse, a third year student, won the case he argued against James Guerra, a second year student. The winners were announced at a banquet last night at Campus Inn. ALL OF THE cases presented dealt with the fictitious story of Beverly and Charles Langdon. After having one child born with Down's Syndrome, the couple wanted a second child provided it would not also be afflicted. When the couple received assurances from Dr. Vogel that the chance of having another child with Down's Syn- drom was at most 1 percent, they con- ceived another child. Born on Jan. 15, 1983, their daughter Elsie also had Down's syndrome and a congenital heart malformation that would require two operations in the near future. In the first of the two cases presented, Kelly represented the Langdons, seeking damages on behalf of the family and Elsie. Weisburgh represen- ted Dr. Vogel. THE LANGDONS sought damages against Dr. Vogel for medical expenses and emotional stress. Their complaint on behalf of Elsie sought damages for her care and treatment and pain and suffering. Each of the two students was aided by a team member. Each finalist (or team) was given about 25 minutes to present his or her arguments and respond to questions or points made by the panel. Everything was conducted as if in a real courtroom.
