Dorm residents get cold showers The Njichigan Daily - Saturday, February 11, 1984 - Page 3 Clark says lawyers By SUE BARTO What a bummer. Friday night and no hot water. That's what some Betsy Barbour and Helen Newberry residents were thinking for a few hours yesterday while University maintenance workers shut off the hot water to repair a leak in the underground steam tunnels. THE HOT water for a number of University buildings in the Maynard Street area was turned off at 4:20 p.m. in response to a report earlier in the day that water was rusty and pressure was low, said Susan Matthews, custodial supervisor at University Building Services. Signs posted at Barbour and Newberry stated that there would be no hot water in the dorms until "sometime later in the evening." And by 7:30 p.m. when the hot water was once again flowing to the area, some women from Barbour and Newberry had already -trekked over to West Quad or the Central Campus Recreation Building to shower and shampoo - and some suffered the agony of ice cold water in frenzied preparation for a Friday night on the town. "IT WASN'T just cold, it was, like very, very cold," said freshwoman Laurie Finch, who said she washed her hair in the bathroom sink at Newberry during the hot water shut-off. Others, like Betsy Barbour resident Karen Mysliwiec, went to greater lengths to clean up. Mysliwiec, a junior in LSA, "resigned (herself) to taking a sponge bath." Using a coffee maker which holds ten cups of water, Mysliwiec filled the bathroom sink with hot water so she could clean up before going out. Jesse Johnson at University security said the leak in the steam tunnels had been temporarily repaired at ap- proxkiately 7:30 p.m. and that it would be permanently fixed on Monday. He said he did not know whether per- manent repair would require another hot water cut-off. University utility officials, who are responsible for the repairs, were unavailableor comment. The director of Plant Operations, Russ Reister, said the problem couldn't have been too serious because he wasn't even aware of it. should help By MARK SMALLWOOD Aspiring lawyers should abandon their drive to secure a high-paying job and instead help the great number of low-income people who cannot afford attorneys, former attorney general and civil rights activist Ramsey Clark told a 400-member audience yesterday. "There are 40 million Americans who cannot afford a lawyer. President Reagan believes that money will trickle down. (But) the capacity of charity to fulfill the right of others to have legal service is miniscule," Clark said. SPEAKING TO a crowded auditorium in Hutchins Hall Clark told the audience, largely made up of law students, that too many lawyers today practice corporate law because it is more prestigious than public interest law. But the most demand for lawyers is by people who cannot pay high legal fees, he said. "People like to make money and are impregsed by it," Ramsey said. "(Students) are learning corporate law and hear that's where the big money is. Daily Photo by CAROL L. FRANCAVILLA Ramsey Clark, former U.S. attorney general, tells a group of students gath- ered in Hutchins Hall last night that future lawyers should steer away from high-paying jobs and help the poor instead. the poor But did you know that over two-thirds of the adults in this country have never consulted a lawyer?" THE one-third of people who do use Legal Counsel are in the top percentage of the nation's income bracket, Ramsey ; said. Ramsey blamed the social pressures to gain status for such discrimination againstslow-income groups and minorities. Too many lawyers are concerned with social status and making money and as a result ignore people who need help, he said. A disproportionate number of blacks, are on Death Row, said Clark, adding that an even higher number of convic- ted criminals did not receive adequate legal counsel. But lawyers who choose to practice public interest law make the sacrifice of earning less money than colleagues in corporate law. "We are social creatures, (and) it's hard to defy social norms. If you are dominated by these values you will not enjoy public interest law," he said. Kilwils, Chocolates Give the giff of good taste KILWIN'S CHOCOLATES 107 E.

More than 85 American and other foreign civilians evacuated the war-scarred city in helicopters. Lebanese sources said President Amin Gemayel was moving to'cancel the May 17 troop-withdrawal agreement with Israel in an effort to satisfy his Syrian-backed opponents and end an eighty-day old civil war flareup that police say has killed more than 400 people. Israeli officials said yesterday if Lebanese President Amin Gemayel cancels the May 17 Lebanon-Israeli agreement, it would be tantamount to surrender to Syria. "If Gemayel gives in to Syria on this matter, he surrenders rather completely to the Syrians," one official said. "This agreement is to a large extent the symbol of some freedom of . action for Lebanon." A Western diplomatic source said the attack was aimed at rebel reinforcements streaming toward west Beirut through the corridor that links the rebels in the south of the capital with the rebel-held mountains. The attack was a signal to Syria and the rebels that Israel would not accept a return to the Palestinian and Syrian presence in Beirut that preceded the 1982 Israeli invasion, Lebanese targets although it would probably go along with a military stalemate in the capital, the diplomat said. The Israeli jets struck near Bhamdoun, 14 miles east of Beirut. Military sources in Israel said the targets were bases of Syrian-backed Palestinian guerrillas, and that two buildings and several pieces of artillery were destroyed. The Israeli air raids were mounted a day after three Katyusha rockets were fired into nrothern Israel from southern Lebanon. the "Voice of the Mountain" radio station of leftist Druse leader Walid Jumblatt said Druse insurgents fired ground-to- air missiles at the attacking aircraft. Israel said all its planes returned safely. Israel radio said Israeli tanks and armored personnel carriers moved to within about eight miles of Beirut, the closest Israeli forces have come to the capital since they pulled back to the Awali River in south Lebanon Sept. 4. Sniping and rocket exchanges continued along the "green line" dividing Christian east and predominantly Moslem west Beirut, which Moslem militias captured from the Lebanese army early in the week. The fighting, along with shelling attacks south of the city, continued to isolate west Beirut. U.S. helicopters evacuated Americans from west Beirut as fighting continued in the heart of the divided city. 2 School purchases computers engineering students now pay to suo- &continued from Page 1 port the college's new network. ability to run software designed for "The engineering .college has set a other machines such as - the Apple precedent that we might like to follow," Macintosh and the IBM PC. he said.

He supposedly paid a $175,000 settlement in order to ensure that Perles would come to MSU instead of signing a contract with the Philadelphia Stars, a USFL team. ' Although Mackey has not had a smooth career at MSU, Dade said that "every president at a major public. university will have many people satisfied and dissatisfied with his work." Dade would not speculate on Mackey's future at MSU but he said that trustees "are always evaluating his performance - it's our job." "It's literally impossible to say what will happen," Dade said. "I believe it is a topic of concern, bit it's a misunder- stood story." Trustee Blanche Martin, however, said he hopes there will be a decision about Mackey's $92,700-a-year job within two weeks. The Detroit Free Press yesterday reported that at least three of the four who attended the December meeting confirmed they would probably vote to oust the embattled president if the issue came before the whole board. Five votes would be needed to fire Mackey. .. _ _ - Lu /////N//1/f/1/ / /lI/I/I// 1/,!! /HI/! Another year at the laundromat? Stop!
