The Michigan Daily - Thursday, March 29, 1984 - Page 7 Senate considers Salvadoran aid From AP and UPI WASHINGTON - A Democratic leader predicted yesterday Senate approval of a compromise $61.7 million military aid package for El Salvador, but Secretary of State George Shultz said he would resist any move to cut off the aid if the government now being chosen is overthrown in a military coup. "I think it is not necessary and is inappropriate to seem to be predicting that nossibility," Shultz said. "The military in El Salvador has gone to great lengths to depoliticize themselves. I don't see any evidence of anything to the contrary." Shultz made his remarks to the Senate Appropriations subcommittee that oversees the State Department budget. SEN. DALE BUMPERS (D-Ark.), said he had heard speculation about a possible coup if centrist presidential candidate Jose Napoleon Duarte, who led in Sunday's first round of voting in El Salvador, is elected in a runoff expected to be held in May. He asked Shultz if he would support an amendment RSG supports to cut off aid in that event. "No, sir," Shultz said. "I think it would be counterproductive to seem to be predicting that possibility by adding something" to the measure. THE SENATE IS expected to vote this week on a bill that would provide $61.7 million in emergency military aid to El Salvador in the current fiscal year. The Appropriations Committee approved $93 million in aid by a close vote earlier this month, but the Reagan administration compromised on the lower figure after Senate Democrats threatened to delay action. Congress has already approved $64.8 million in military aid for the Central American nation in this fiscal year, but ordered that $20 million of it could not be spent until there is a trial and verdict in the case of four American churchwomen murdered in El Salvador in December 1980. Sen. Daniel Inouye, (D-Hawaii), sponsor of the compromise measure, told reporters, "It's going to pass." Inouye is chairman of a Democratic task force on Central America and senior Democrat on the appropriations subcommittee that handles foreign spending. INOUYE SAID SEN. Edward Kennedy (D-Mass.) indicated in a meeting of the task force that he plans to offer an amendment to provide only enough money to last through May, withholding further installments until after the runoff when the makeup of the new government is known. Harry Shlaudeman, whose appointment as peace envoy to Central America was confirmed by the Senate Tuesday, met with Reagan at the White House on the eve of his departure for Honduras, El Salvador, Guatemala, Costa Rica, and Nicaragua. A SENIOR administration official s'aid" Shlaudgman will depart on the trip today and try "to" get the momentum going" and reinvigorate diplomatic efforts that have lagged since his predecessor, Richard Stone, resigned. "It's a slow process," the official said. "I don't think anybody expects him to work miracles." some form of student code AP Photo Lawyer Mary Evans arrives at Anderson County Courthouse yesterday morning where she was sentenced to three years for helping convicted killer William Kirk escape at gunpoint in March of 1983. Lawyer convicted for ai in prison escape CLINTON, Tenn. (AP) - A mentally disturbed lawyer who helped a prisoner escape was sentenced to the maximum three years in prison yesterday, after refusing to repent or testify about their 4'% months on the run together. Mary Evans, 27, who had originally pleaded guilty to an escape charge in return for probation, showed no emotion as she was sentenced by Criminal Court Judge James Scott. SCOTT REFUSED to release her on bond pending appeal. He said Evans, described by doctors as a suicidal schizophrenic, could be better protected from herself in prison. "I'm not surprised, nor is Mary sur- prised. However, we do not feel justice was done," said defense attorney Robert Ritchie, who immediately ap- pealed the denial of probation and bond to the state Court of Criminal Appeals. Evans was a court-appointed at- torney defending William Timothy Kirk, 37, on prison murder charges when she arranged for him to be taken from Brushy Mountain Penitentiary to the Oak Ridge office of Dr. Gary Salk for psychological tests on March 31, 1983. She admitted to slipping Kirk a small pistol, which he used to disarm three guards. The couple took the. guards' pistols and $25 from Salk's wallet and fled in Evans' car, driving through North Carolina and Florida, living in motels and gambling at dog tracks. FBI agents arrested them Aug. 17 outside a Daytona Beach, Fla., telegraph office where they had gone to pick up money wired from Tennessee. By JOHN ARNTZ The Rackham student government which will hold its presidential election today, said yesterday it is in favor of some sort of a code to regulate student behavior outside of the classroom, but did not wholly agree with the non- academic code which the University has propsoed. Members of the group also said they did not completely agree with all of the Michigan Student Assembly's criticisms of the proposed code. HILLERY MURT, RSG's vice president, said that RSG is planning to issue a formal statement on the code but is waiting for more information. "We are in the process of making a statement and we wish to have an ex- plication of the code." To get that ,explication, members decided to ask University Affirmative Action Director Virginia Nordby, who has been very involved with the code, to attend one of their upcoming meetings. THE GROUP also decided to draft a press release at its next meeting to ex- plain its position on the proposed code. Kodi Abili, an RSG representative, said that RSG "is not against the MSA statement, but just wants an indepen- dent statement" that represents the opinion of graduate students. Another matter of concern to graduate students, although not discussed at the meeting, is the tax which the federal government has begun to assess on graduate assistants' tuition. .ANGELA GANTNER, an RSG coun- cil member who recently returned from a trip to Washington D.C. where she met with local congressmen and their staffs, said that she thought the taxes would eventually be returned to studen- ts, but not before Congress deals with next year's budget and the controver- sial items on the tax bill, Ganter said. She said the tax waiver was not a con- troversial part of the bill. COMPUTERS FOR THE FUTURE?

Brodsky said that his preconception of America differed somewhat from the reality he discovered upon arriving here in 1972. "I imagined mostly what I read in Robert Frost poems...the spotlight was very reserved and reticent - prudent souls. I was wrong. It took me a while to find the existen- tialism of the Robert Frost poems." Sokolov said "When I came to New York, Carl Proffer met me at the air- port and we came here to Ann Arbor. It became my first hometown.Irk mediately I realized the image of the United States was familiar to me. I was back home (spiritually)." THE FORUM, WHICH was planned as a tribute to University Prof. Carl Proffer, is hoped to be the forerunner to a larger conference next year. Proffer, who teaches Slavic languages and literature, was instrumental in helping Brodsky, leave Russia. Hle owns Ann Arbor's Ardis Publishing, the premiere publishing firm for emigre Russian literature. Baryshnikov considered America as notes Valium stolen Less than $10 worth of Valium was stolen from the University's Clinical Pharmacology Building sometime Monday night or early Tuesday mor- ning, according to Ann Arbor police. The thief forced open the rear door to gain entry to the building. There are- curently no suspects. - Randi Harris THE UNIVERSITY OF MICHIGAN MEN'S GLEE CLUB Patrick Gardner, Director the land of "JFK, Marilyn Monroe, Kirk Douglas...and there were two par- ties - strange!" Dovlatov, who now writes for the New Yorker magazine, said that the U.S. is "paradise. When I arrived here the most striking thing was that it was real." ALESHKOVSKY, WHO alternated between humor and seriousness, said that he could sum up his feelings about America in one word: freedom. "You (Americans) don't share my sentiment about that word," he said. "I was released from prison twice; the second time I landed in Vienna. Thoseesen- sations of freedom are extremely sen- sitive and profound." All of the artists scoffed at questions about their disappointments of living in America. "I'm very disappointed, let me tell you," Baryshnikov joked. "In America you can dance with many dif- ferent companies - I end up missing all the books, films, are - things you dream of doing in America. I just don't have the time, it's that simple." The language barrier didn't seem to be a problem for the emigres, all but two of whom spoke fluent English. "I'M A SUCKER for the English language," Brodsky said. He has recen- tly begun writing some of his poems in English. Sokolov said "It's better just to be lemocracy born again here and start all over" with the language. Each of the panelists (except Baryshnikov).served time in Russian prisons before emigrating to the United States. ALESHKOVSKY SAID he was grateful to his years in prison, "They helped me become a mature person." In Russia, as in the U.S., Baryshnikov said the life of a premier ballet star is one of privelege. "I did have all the privileges and all the artistic freedom. I had the highest salary, a car, an apartment, I always got the best tables in restaurants.. .but I realized it didn't matter. Everything was so provincial and so meaningless - I had to go out and meet people and read this guy's poetry (pointing to Brodsky). That's why we're all here." Members of the audience who veered away from cultural questions were usually met with short responses by Proffer or the panelists. Brodsky was asked in which country he found more hospitality and warmth, the U.S. or Russia? "THAT QUESTION is pure gar- bage," Brodsky said. "In either coun- try there shouldn't be'developed a sense of heirarchy between the people." None of the Russian exiles expects to return to his native land, although Sokolov chuckled that he expects a coup d'etat any day now. Pnrb4!Wn Phone 764-0558 STEPHEN T.
