Barnes and Noble, a New York firm, is scheduled to move into the ground floor of theMichigan Union by the time winter book rush rolls around, accor- ding to Frank Cianciola, Union direc- tor. It will occupty the same space one of it's rivals - the 'U' Cellar - onced leased before it moved out two years ago because high rent costs and a rule barring it from selling any memorabilia bearing the Universiy in- signia. THE STORMY parting of the Union and the student bookstore was brought . on by three factos, according to 'U' Cellar spokesman Bruce Weinberg. The increase in rent, $350,000 in renovation costs which the bookstore would have had to absorb, and the Union's refusal to give up the exclusive right to sell Michigan insignia items caused the store to move to its present location. The Union would not give up its ex- clusive right to sell insignia items within the building two years ago, but under a tentative agreement with Bar- nes and Nobel the Union will turn those rights over to the New York firm and close the Union-run retail outlets in the building. According to Weinberg, the decision to raise rents was made so the Union would make money.

See CANDIDATES, Page 3 WILMINGTON, N.C. (UPI) - Thousands of Hurricane Diana refugees, their spirits boosted by brilliant blue skies, jammed highways leading to stormed-ravaged coastal towns Friday to start rebuilding. Many weary families returned for their first looks at damage left by Diana, which assaulted a 30-mile stret- ch of, coast from Cape Fear to Wright- sville Beach for 18 hours before finally moving inland at dusk Thursday and weakening to a tropical storm. RAIN STOPPED Friday and the clouds parted, revealing sunshine and blue skies, and the pounding of ham- mers and the whine of power saws rang out along the coast. "People are out cleaning up and trying to restore their lives as best they can. There's blue skies above and that helps," said Hal Walker, a state emergency management official. "There's a very hearty breed of people down here. People are not saying, "Why did this happen to me?" but "Let's get on with it," Walker said. SOME 8,500 people huddled in storm shelters for the third night Thursday, eating sandwiches made and trucked in from state prisons, and glad to have even that meager fare. By daylight, traffic was heavy on roads leadings to the coast. The throng . of homeward bound refugees slogged over highways UAW s DETROIT (AP) - The United Auto Workers union said last night it had authorized 13 of its locals to strike General Motors Corp. at midnight over local issues and would continue to bargain on a national contract. UAW President Owen Bieber and chief bargainer Donald Ephlin said in a joint statement that "the failure to reach agreements at the local level at some locations has made local strikes unavoidable at 13 GM facilities." SAL MANCHACA, secretary- treasurer of UAW local 654 in Vany Nuys, Calif., where Chevrolet Camaro sports cars are made, said his plant was one of those picked for a possible strike. "We kinda got the official word Wed- nesday and that's when we speeded up elects GM strike targets 'They've decided to call selective strikes.' - Norm Accord UAW official how GM might respond to a selective strike, whether, for instance, it might lock out UAW workers at non-striking facilities. THE UNION had no immediate. comment on ,the reports regarding its strategy, UAW Spokeswoman Jessica Katz said. GM spokesman William Winter said the company couldn't comment on the "accuracy or inaccuracy" of the repor- ts. Radio station WWJ in Detroit quoted unidentified sources as saying the union had targeted eight plants so far - four in Michigan. "They've decided to call selective strikes," Norm Accord, shop chairman of UAW Local 292 in Kokomo, Ind., said irra telephone interview with The Associated Press. He said the strikes would be over local issues and the workers at his plant were told to report to work. preparations, "Menchaca said. UAW Local 160 President Len Wozny in Warren, Mich., said it was "my un- derstanding" that the plant he represents, the GM Technical Center in Warren, also was told to be prepared to strike. A UNION spokesman at a plant in Doraville, Ga., which employes 5,000 workers making Buick Century and Oldsmobile Ciera compact cars, said the plant also was on the strike target list. The spokesman at Local 10 asked not to be identified. But Charles McDonald, president of Local 2195 in Decatur, Ala., said the GM steering gear plant there and its parent plant in Saginaw, Mich., would not be struck immediately. Forming a strike strategy, of course, did not mean the UAW was committing itself to a walkout. It also was uncertain Ozone House- counsels more black youths By SHUBHA GHOSH In 1970, 2 percent of the runaway youths who sought help from Ann Arbor's Ozone House were black. In 1984, although the number of clients hadn't changed, 25 percent of the runaways were black. "VIRTUALLY all the (media) attention has focused on white youths," according to Peter Ways, training and volunteer coordinator for Ozone House. "Running away and homelessness are problems that concern the black community." Ozone House is a 16-year-old agency which offers counseling and shelter to runaway and homeless youths. The rise in the number of black runaways has led Ways to begin recruiting more black volunteers. Reasons for the increase in blacks seeking help from Ozone House include the facility's outreach programs, its well-established reputation in the community and a rise in the number of blacks living in the Ann Arbor-Ypsilanti area. WASHTENAW County's black population rose 58.9 percent from 1970 to 1980, and while Ann Arbor's population grew 8 percent the black population rose 50 percent. In Ypsilanti, which accounts for some 30 percent of the Ozone House clients, the black population rose 22.9 percent despite an 18.6 percent drop in the town's total population. These increases have been accompanied by a change in the socio-economic composition of blacks. According to the 1980 census, there are no longer any all-white neighborhoods in Ann Arbor. Only 74 black families in the county reported incomes over $25,000 in 1970, but over 1,000 black families inthe 1980 census reported incomes over $35,000. At the same time, the number of black families with incomes below the poverty level rose 26 percent. Although Ozone House does not compile economic information on its youth, Ways said people of all socio-economic levels use the facility. Despite the lack of data, Ways and information coordinator Cub- ba Reese blame the recent downswing in the economy for an increase in domestic problems which in turn leads to adolescent runaways. Blacks tend to be the hardest hit during rough economic times, and Cubba said blacks have recently reported more problems with "independent living, pregnancy, (and) siblings who physically abuse them" than whites. NATIONALLY, a Department of Health and Human Services study reported that the number of youths nationally seeking counselling at facilities like Ozone House rose 20 percent from 1978 to 1981. This rise consisted of a 4 percent drop in whites (from 74 to 70 percent) and a three percentage point rise in the See OZONE, Page 2 Magical fingers ,Michigan rugby team member Shareef Mahdavi gives LSA junior Geri Danenberg a back massage during Festifall held vesterday on theDiag.
