Page 2 - The Michigan Daily - Saturday, November 12, 1983 Inkblots mar Minnesota Playboys Don't stand near the Playboy and Penthouse magazine racks near the University of Minnesota's campus - it could be dangerous. Three unknown women dumped black ink last week on the magazines in the Minnesota Student Association store for the second time this term, ruining about 100 magazines and splashing a woman on her way to a job COLLE GE S interview. The store has received a few com- plaints this year from students on cam- pus for selling the magazines, and one formal complaint was lodged last mon- th by student Trina Porte. Porte filed a letter of complaint with the student association, which runs the store located in the university's student union. "How can a woman feel safe given the presence of pornographic magazines on campus? Forte wrote in her letter. "The magazines objectify women, are pro-rape...sexist, and racist, and un- dermine a woman's ability to feel safe." But the student association's cor- poration board refused her request to stop selling the magazines. Board members said that removing the publications would be censorship in som'estudents' view. "There has been an outpouring of support for the board's position," said corporation president Gary Klouda. "Censorship has started to become an issue with some of our supporters." Klouda added that "if the incidents continue, we will be forced to increase security around the store. We are still standing by our decision." The store sells an average of 105 Pen- thouse, 60 Playboy, and 21 Playgirl magazines per month, compared to about 90 Newsweek and People magazines monthly. - The Minnesota Daily CMU students hoaxed Students at Central Michigan Univer- sity have been collecting tabs from pop cans this term, believing their efforts would give a Chicago girl vital kidney dialysis. But members of the school's Residence Hall Association found out Monday that they were the victims of a hoax - the girl doesn't really exist. According to Keith Miner, director of Barnes residence hall, a dormitory resident proposed the tab collection drive. The student said she was told by a co-worker that for every 1,000 tabs returned to an aluminum company, the girl would receive ten minutes of free dialysis. The project drew support from various campus groups, and collection .r of boxes popped up at locations around campus, including the library and residence halls. But Miner suspected something was wrong where he couldn't get further in- formation on the drive by calling alum- inum companies. He got his answer, however, when he reached ALCOA of- ficials. Miner said a company spokesperson told him "that he's been at the company for fourteen years and thatethe rumors had been around ever since he'd been there. He told me he could trace (the rumor) back at least twenty years," Miner said. Student groups will continue to collect pop cans for recycling, but won't be stocking up on the tabs, Miner said. - The CMU Life Harvard considers phone discounts Harvard students may be able to reach out and touch someone at a 40 percent discount next year. University officials are considering a proposal to hook student telephones into the school administration's long distan- ce system, which allows Harvard to make calls at rates much below stan- dard charges. Administrators say that if they find that the proposal is cost effective, it could be implemented as early as next SAID wants bigger student voice in LSA By CAROLINE MULLER Students need to become more aware and involved in the University, accor- ding to LSA Student Government Presidential candidate Eric Berman. "Too many people go to college for a credential-filling their requirements. There's more to it than that," said Berman, an LSA junior, whose Students for Academic and Institutional Development (SAID) party will try next week to hold on to control of the topSA-SG position for another year. BERMAN AND vice presidential candidate Jean Wyman, also an LSA junior, are running with 11 candidates for at-large seats in the LSA-SG elec- tions held next Monday and Tuesday. Because student awareness is Ber- man's primary concern, one of his first LSA-SG- ELECTIONS goals is to put a student member on the LSA Executive Committee, the school's most powerful group of administrators and faculty members. LSA-SG pushed for a student committee member last year, but was unsuccessful. While he would prefer to have a student vote on the committee, Berman said he would settle for a non-voting member if it is the only way an LSA student will be able to participate in executive committee meetings and discussions. "THIS YEAR we plan to do it, whether the student gets the vote or not," he said. Traning for teaching assistants is also a major SAID concern. Instead of testing only foreign TA' for their speaking abilities, and leaving training for a1llTAs up to the departments, SAID wants to institute stricter college-wide training requirements., SAID also considers the 4.9 percent minority enrollment figure to be an LSA-SG concern. Their proposed solution calls for the formation of a committee of representatives from campus organizations to discuss solutions to minority enrollment and retention. "WE NEED TO learn what the 4.9 percent feels about the 4.9 percent," Wyman said. Another SAID proposal would strengthen student peer counceling through the Student Counseling Office in Angell Hall. "There needs to be a place where students can go and talk to students," Wyman said. Currently, the office is hampered by low-visibility and insufficient funds ac- cording to Berman. Like his opponents Andrew Hartman of the Ignite party, Berman has specific plans for cutting crime on campus. His proposals includes not only preventing rape and other assaults, but also making dormitories safer. SAID HAS proposed instit'uting a campus-wide escort system and em- ploying more University security guar- ds to make the campus safer at night. Berman also said that the University dormitories should issue picture iden- tification cards to students, which Berman ... students need a voice year. The move would be just one of Harvard's attempt's to get the cheapest telephone service possible in the wake of the AT&T breakup. Despite the financial advantage to students, Harvard administrators have several reservations to switching student telephones to the money-saving service. If students numbers are added to the university system, Harvard would be responsible for tabulating and collecting student phone bills, said Robert Carroll, associate director of Harvard's Office of Information Technology. The university may also have to give students business lines instead of residential lines to integrate them into the system, Carroll said. Students would have to pay an additional two cents per local call on business telephones. Other administrators have warned against switching to a new telephone system unti it can be seen how the AT&T breakup is going to affect the market and telephone equipment. "This is the wrong time to be changing everything, while the in- dustry is in such turmoil, said Harvard Law School Assistant Dean Russell Simpson. -The Harvard Crimson Colleges appears every Saturday and was compiled by Rajnish Prasad. Israel cuts funds slated for West Bank settlements TEL AVIV, Israel (AP) - Economic problems are forcing the Israeli gover- nment to trim its plan for saturating the occupied West Bank with Jewish set- tlements to prevent its return to Arab rule. The Housing Ministry has postponed construction of four outposts, and says it will cut back public services to existing settlements as well as financial aid to prospective homebuyers. FINANCE Minister Yigal Cohen; Orgad is seeking a 10 percent cut of $2 billion from the government's budget in order to start closing the $21.5 billion foreign debt and tame the 130 percent annual inflation rate. The cuts will soon be felt in every field. Education and health services will cost more, welfare payments will get smaller and credit for businesses will shrink. Thus it is politically impor- tant for the government to show that the settlements also are being cut back, lest the poor of Israel - until now the ruling Likud bloc's strongest con- stituency - come to perceive the settlers as a pampered elite. The opposition Labor Party has sought to make political capital out of the spending on settlements, claiming the government is neglecting the poor while "squandering" more than $1 billion on putting Jews in the West Bank. HOUSING Ministry spokeswoman Aliza Goren said, "There will be a general slowdown in the pace of con- struction and the standards of the set- tlements. What was supposed to be built in a year will now take 18 months or two years. Where a clubhouse was planned, it won't be built. The same goes for roads, services, etc." The settlers reacted angrily. "We are willing to accept cuts in aid to in- dividuals,"said Israel Harel, spokesman for the council of West Bank settlements, in a telephone interview. But he was angry about the prospect of delaying work on four West Bank set- tlements, Dolev, Hermesh, Kochva and Otniel, which are military outposts and were soon to become civilian villages. "THE establishment of dozens of new settlements in the heartland is a basic political necessity," he said. Uri Uriel, of the nationalist Gush Emunim Bloc of the Faithful movement which spearheads West Bank settlement, believes potential settlers already have been deferred. "Very few Jews today are starting to build, compared with the numbers in the past," he said. IN BRIEF Compiled from Associated Press and United Press International reports Wealthy rapist may avoid prison by funding rape crisis center KALAMAZOO - A judge's contemplated rape sentence for an heir to the Upjohn fortune was described by a women's organization yesterday an "ap- palling" plan that would allow a rapist to "buy his way out of prison." Cheri Wilczek, vice president of the local National Organization for Women chapter, said she was "shocked" at reports Circuit Judge John Fit- zgerald was considering a proposal to allow Upjohn heir Roger Gauntlett avoid a lengthy prison sentence by donating from $1 million to $2 million to build a rae crisis center. Gauntlett entered a no contest plea to the first degree criminal sexual con- duct charge July 12. In return, prosecutors agreed to drop a second rape charge involving the girl's 12-year-old brother and three second-degree counts involving both children. The Kalamazoo Gazette earlier this week reported Fitzgerald, in a con- versation with an assistant prosecutor and Gauntlett's attorney, had suggested sentencing Gauntlett to one-year in the county jail and five years probation for raping a 14-year-old girl in 1981. In addition, the 41-year-old businessman would be required to make a donation of up to $2 million for the construction of a "first-class" rape center, : the judge reportedly said. Gauntlett, whose great-grandfather founded the Upjohn Co. in 1866, is to be sentenced Dec. 5. U.S. jets draw fire in Lebanon BEIRUT, Lebanon - Carrier-based U.S. jets flew over Lebanon yesterday and Christian radio stations reported that Syrian gunners fired at the planes. Beirut residents saw U.S. F-14 Tomcats swoop over the capital then back toward the carrier Dwight D: Eisenhower. The Voice of Lebanon and the Voice of Free Lebanon said Syrian gunners fired at the jets from the moun- tains overlooking the Marine base at Beirut airport. No hits were reported. Syria said its gunners on Thursday drove off four F-14 Tomcats that flew over Syrian-held central Lebanon. U.S. officials confirmed the planes were fired at Thursday, but Defense Secretary Caspar Weinberger said there was no evidence the Syrians did the shooting. The Voice of Lebanon also said mutineers battling Palestine Liberation Organization chief Yasser Arafat in Tripoli ordered him to surrender and leave the northern port by Sunday or face an all-out attack. New protests erupt in Manila MANILA, Philippines - Tens of thousands of Filipinos joined i peaceful protest rallies against President Ferdinand Marcos vesterday. At the same time, the man police claim killed Benigno Agnino was buried in the same cemetery as the popular opposition leader Some 10,000 professionals, white-collar workers, and relatives of political detainees demanded the resignation of President Ferdinand Marcos, 66, in the biggest protest yet in Manila's Makati financial district. "There is any ugly cancer eating away at the very foundations of our civilization," Dr. Francisco Arcellana, leader of a doctors delegation, told a rally after the "Professionals March." "We must do a radical surgery." About 300 students, watched by 100 riot police, protested at the American Embassy against U.S. support of the Marcos regime, burning an effigy of the American eagle and marching through the city's "red light" district. A smaller workers rally was held at the Labor Ministry. U.S. to replace ousted Marxist doctors and teachers in Grenada ST. GEORGE'S, Grenada - The Reagan administration is seeking to re- place Soviet bloc teachers and doctors expelled from Grenada after the U.S. invasion that toppled a Marxist regime, aid officials said yesterday. Congress has approved $3 million in assistance to Grenada, which was barred frozjiree yOng URS. aid duri g bae foar;yein power of pro-Cuban Prime Minister Maurice Bishop, slain Oct. 19 in a coup by more militant A U.S. aid official, Ted Morse; said the United States will "try to replace 32 East bloc teachers within 10 days" and will make efforts to bring in 16 doc- tors. "We hope that many will come from American private voluntary organizations," he said. Morse added that the U.S. aid would provide jobs for hundreds of Grenadians who lost jobs after the invasion. Those without work include air- port construction workers, soldiers and employees of Soviet bloc aid programs. Congress to act on cash crisis WASHINGTON - Senate-House Conferees resolved all their differences yesterday and adopted a compromise emergency measure to fund federal agencies that had run out of money. Congress is expected to give final ap- proval today. "I have every reason to believe we have a bill that will get signed," Senate Appropriations Committee Chairman Mark Hatfield (R-Ore.) said after the joint conference committee approved the compromise agreement by voice vote. The House, tired of waiting around all day on Veterans Day for the con- ference to resolve the differences between the Senate-and House-passed spending bills, announced it would return today to vote on the compromise. The Senate has to wait for the House to act. President Reagan had vowed to veto the legislation if the compromise measure contained a House-passed. provision providing $1 billion for education and social-welfare programs. The Senate version contained no such funds. Vol. XCIV-No. 58 Saturday, November 12, 1983 t(ISSN 0745-967x) 4 would be checked by security guards when students entered a dorm. All dorms would have only one open en- trance after a certain time, under Ber- man's plan. Berman was appointed to serve on LSA-SG last year, and has also par- ticipated in Michigan Student Assem- bly and Student Alumni Council ac- tivities. Wyman joined LSA-SG last month and now is a council member. LIBERAL ARTS MAJORS-.-- You're Needed All Over the Word.
