Bullwinkle, where's Rocky?
This 500 lb. bull-moose tried to pay a visit to the home of Maine Gov. Joseph Brennan yesterday, bumping into houses
and cutting through yards near the state capitol for several hours before policemen and wardens could track it down for
tranquilization.

The Jewish condition and the human
condition are one and the same and
cannot be viewed separately, noted
Jewish author Elie Wiesel told an Ann
Arbor audience Sunday.
Wiesel, who was introduced as "the
voice of the Jews," stressed the univer-
sality of mankind in his address to
about 950 people in Rackham
auditorium. He presented his topic, "A
Jew Today: The Jewish and Human
Condition," to a predominantly older
crowd.
"OUR responsibility must always be
a universal one - the more universal,
the more Jewish, and the more Jewish,
the more universal," Wiesel said.
A survivor of Auschwitz and
Buchen'wald, Wiesel only referred to his
past briefly and spoke more on today's
world situation.
Describing himself as a student, he
recounted his experience at the Sor-
bonne in Paris after the war when he
said he believed he would never again
have to fight racism, hunger, torture,
or anti-Semitism.
When hearing of these concerns
today, Wiesel said he speaks as a Jew,
but that he does not exclude non-Jewish
concerns. "As Jews, we should be con-
cerned with all that concerns human
society or we lose too," he said.
IN THE world today, there are 40
wars going on, he said, noting that all
people face the same dangers of
"dehumanization, indifference, and in-
tolerance."
Speaking specifically to the Jewish
population Wiesel said that Jews can
help prevent the world from further
tragedies by reminding the world what
it has done to the Jewish people.
Students who attended voiced both
positive and negative feelings about the
speech. "I've read his work and I came
looking as a non-Jew to hear about the
Jewish perspective," said Jan Mueller,
a junior. "His style moves you, he is
beyond academics."
ON THE other hand, sophomore Eric
Gould said, "I was expecting something
a little bit more in depth, but the
audience was diverse, so it had to be
