Page 2 - The Michigan Daily - Saturday, September 24, 1983 Ohio bathtub pushers mugged Six Ohio fraternity brothers received an unpleasant welcome to New York City last week, when they were mugged after wheeling a bathtub there from Cleveland in a fundraising effort last wpek. To add insult to injury, police towed away the illegally-parked van and trailer where the students had stored the bathtub. The saga began when six members of Tau Kappa Epsilon fraternity at Cleveland State University wheeled the COLLEGES" bathtub 600 miles to raise $4,000 in con- tributions for St. Jude's Children's Research Hospital in Memphis, Tenn. They arrived at the Empire State Building last Saturday night, and were on their way to a Manhattan bar to celebrate when a pack of theives tried to steal their wallets, striking one of them with a bottle. Unfortunately, New York had more surprises in store - on Monday, the students discovered their van, trailer, and bathtub had been towed away. A sympathetic police department of- ficial arranged to have the vehicles returned without a fine, said Tom Kelly, a spokesman for the mayor's of- fice. "New York is a great place - it has been an education," said fraternity member Ed Buchner, after receiving stitches over his left eye following the mugging. - Associated Press lorida rejects gay scholarship The president of the University of Florida has rejected an offer of a $500 scholarship for a gay male medical student.

President Robert Marson returned the check with a note asking Ragland to "consider other ways to support the College of Medicine," but gave no fur- ther explanation of the schools rejec- tion of the scholarship. Ragland said he was not surprised byt he refusal, but said he had expected Marston to discuss the offer with him. Ragland has made similar offers to Stanford and Duke universities, but was rejected both times. Officials at Stanford said that the process of determining whether or not a student was gay would be discriminatory. - The Independent Florida New Mexico nudists approved Students at the University of New Mexico can now. become nudists with the University's blessing - a group hoping to promote better mental and physical health through nudism was recognized as an official student organization last week. The University of New Mexico Nudist Alliance's first objective is to clear up misconceptions non-nudist students may have about the group, spokesman Eric Brookshire said. "Most non-nudists think of nudists as wierdos who are into swinging, but they couldn't be further from the truth. Nudism is an ethical movement that promotes a family philosophy toward better health and a wholesome .w socialization through a complete awareness of their own bodies," Brookshire said. The group already has nearly a dozen members and uses a private club for their meetings. Brookshire said, the group hopes eventually to release New Mexico students of their materialistic view of society. "Once everyone's clothes are removed, all vestiges of social status and sexual competition are removed so that a person can be accepted on face value rather than the type of clothes he or she wears. What remains is a true person-to-person relationship that non- nudists cannot understand," said Brookshire. - The Daily Lobo, Colleges appears every Saturday.

IN BRIEF Compiled from Associated Press and United Press International reports Riots injury 15 n Manila MANILA, Philippines - Rioting students swarmed into the streets and fought pitched battles with police yesterday, demanding President Fer- dinand Marcos resign and President Reagan cancel his planned November. visit. At least 15 people were injured and 52 arrested, most of them near the presidential palace where between 500 and 1,000 rock-throwing youths clashed with 500 riot police and troops guarding Marcos' residence. The security forces fired bullets into the air and charged, scattering the protesters. Army checkpoints were thrown up along roads throughout the city and cars were searched as the military set up a dragnet for suspected demon- strators. Government television repeatedly interrupted programming to broadcast a military warning to parents to keep their children off the streets and away from "illegal demonstrations." The renewed violence came two days after 11 people died in rioting near the palace and a day after Marcos threatened use of increased force to quell protests against his 18-year rule. Physician sentenced for rapes AKRON, Ohio - Dr. Edward Jackson, who admitted in court that "oc- casionally I lose my battle with the angel of death," was sentenced yester- day to at least 191 years in prison for committing dozens of rapes and sexual assaults. Jackson, a 39-year-old physician, was convicted Thursday of 60 felonies - including 21 rapes - by a seven-man, five-woman jury that rejected his plea that he was legally insane and driven for seven years to repeatedly attack and rape women. An innocent man who resembled Jackson had spent five years in prison for crimes committed by the Columbus doctor - who will be eligible for parole in 91/2 years under Ohio law. Jackson - who had sat expressionless during the 21-day trial when 30 of his victims and his grieving wife took the stand - had his say yesterday. When asked if he had any statement, he tried to muster an apology for the packed Summit County Common Pleas courtroom. Following Jackson's statements, Judge Frederick Williams, a visiting Columbus judge who heard the case in Akron on a change of venue, then read a four-page sentence that also included $131.250 in fines plus court costs. Reagan's flying command post to be moved to safer location WASHINGTON -President Reagan's "Doomsday" flying command post for use in national emergencies will be moved from an Air Force base in Maryland to a secret location less vulnerable to surprise nuclear attack, it was revealed yesterday. According to a censored version of testimony at a secret House Ap- propriations subcommittee hearing held in May, the sophisticated E-48 air- craft will be transferred from Andrews Air Force Base only 10 miles from the White House to a more remote area. The new basing, probably somewhere in the Middle West, would make the plane less vulnerable to Soviet submarines prowling off the Atlantic coast within a few minutes missile-striking time of Andrews. The E-48, a modified Boeing 747 jumbo jet with ultra-sophisticated com- munications and computers, is kept on a 24-hour-a-day readiness status for possible use. The report did not say how the president would reach the new base in the event of an emergency. Marine helicopters now regularly fly the president between the White House and Andrews, where Air Force One, his usual tran- sport, also is based. Prices rise .4% in August WAS4IN'GkTO N --Consumer prices rose04.percent in August as. the sum- mer drought helped boost food prices for the first time in three months, the goveirfmehit said yesterday. The White House said "inflation remains under control," but some private economists weren't so sure. Prices advanced at an annual rate of only 3.4 percent in the first eight months of 1938, prompting economists to predict that rate for the full year will match - or actually fall below - the 3.9 percent of last year. Over the past 12 months, prices have gone up only 2.6 percent, the Labor Department said in releasing its latest report on the Consumer Price Index. The department said prices have exactly tripled since 1967. The index stood at 300.3 last month, meaning that goods which cost consumers $10 in 1967 now carry a collective price tag of $30.03. Rebels damage radio stations SAN SALVADOR - A Salvadoran rightist death squad bombed two radio stations that refused to broadcast a communique that claimed the group was putting a kidnapped Foreign Ministry official on trial for treason, station employees said yesterday. The Salvadoran Congress immediatelyi called for an "exhaustive" in- vestigation of death squad activity, which human rights groups blame for nearly 80 percent of the 40,000 political assassinations recorded in El Salvador over the past four years. The Maximiliano Hernandez Martinez Anti-Communist Brigade said it had put a bomb in the shared studios of Cadena Central and Cadena Mil- Ochenta radio stations in San Salvador late Thursday, the employees said. There were no injuries, but the blast destroyed the facade of the building f and wrecked furniture and telephone lines.

Gas shoots BOSTON (AP) - Malfunctioning equipment sent a surge of super- pressurized natural gas through 4,000 East Boston homes and businesses early yesterday, causing a restaurant to explode and gas stoves to erupt. Two houses suffered heavy fire damage and firefighters were called to some""20 other homes for minor fires before dawn as hundreds of people - many in nightclothes - were routed in- to the streets by authorities. There were no injuries. "If you were cooking, the flames would have come shooting up from the stove," said Boston Gas spokesman Richard Hull the pressure light, causinj situation."

Presen- tly, between 60 and 100 students are being hired daily. Under program guidelines, the positions can be filled only by students who have received work-study awards. Despite the abundance of unfilled jobs, financial aid officials said they aren't concerned that the positions will remain unfilled. OFTEN students who receive their financial aid packages later in the year are awarded work-study grants. According to University Financial Aid Director Harvey Grotrian, some students wait until later in the year to exercise their work study option. Some of the open jobs will remain available throughout the year, Hoey said. A department can fill a position with a non-work study employee, but must pay the student's entire salary. 4 A Editor-in-chief ...... Managing Editor ..,.. . News Editor ........
