'Bomb' at airport blamed on police dog DETROIT (UPI)-The main ter- minal at Detroit Metropolitan Airport was evacuated for about a half hour yesterday by a bomb that wasn't a bomb, just a small bottle of men's cologne. If all that sounds a little confusing, blame it on a bomb-sniffing dog who apparently had an off day or perhaps a head cold that affected his olfactory powers. THE WHOLE episode began around mid-morning when an employee at the Eastern Airlines ticket counter in the South Terminal got a little concerned about a briefcase or small suitcase sit- ting unattended nearby. "After a period of time, I'd say an hour or so, one of the counter people called the sheriff's deputy and said, 'That bag has been there for a long period of time. Would you kindly remove it or look at it,"' said airport Spokesman Lou Sugo. "At this point, the sheriff's deputy followed normal procedure and that's 'Better safe than sorry' and called in a bomb dog," Sugo said. THAT'S WHEN things got exciting. The way the specially trained dog reac- ted convinced authorities that there Was a bomb in the bag-or a good chan- ce there was one, Sugo said. "At this point you have to assume that the dog knows what it is," Sugo said. Airport officials immediately evacuated about 200 people from the r South Terminal, the largest of three terminals at the airport, while police gingerly toted the suspicious bag to an open field nearby. Police actually detonated the bag, leading many to believe initially that there was indeed a bomb inside. And that was the word that got around until police examined what was left of the bag and its contents. "A small bottle of men's cologne," Sugo said later when the dust had set- , tled. Sugo said the method used to explode a suspicious package led many obser- vers to believe-erroneously, as it tur- ned out-that there was a bomb inside. Bomb experts fired a shot at the bag, causing it to explode, he said. Even though it was a false alarm, Sugo had nothing but praise for the way police handled the crisis. "The alternative of not believing the dog is a little chancey," he said. Uruguayan The Michigan Daily - Tuesday, November 27, 1984 - Page 7 president-elect appeals for cooperation MONTEVIDEO, Uruguay (AP) -President-elect Julio Sanguinetti of the centrist Colorado Party appealed for unity yesterday after his party won a decisive election victory to replace the military regime that has ruled since 1973. The jubilant Sanguinetti made his plea as exhausted celebrants straggled home after a huge street party marred by confrontations between rightist and leftist youths following Sunday's balloting. "THE COUNTRY NEEDS five years of combined effort to reinforce its deomocratic institutions," the 48-year-old lawyer and political journalist said in a speech to supporters. "If the new government does not get the backing of all par- ties, we have failed to learn the lessons of the past 11 years," he said. Under an accord approved by the government of Gregorio Alvarez, the general serving as president in the current military regime, the elected civilian government will take of- fice March 1. Sanguinetti is to serve a five-year term. THE COLORADO PARTY had 744,999 votes for 38.4 per- cent of the total in official returns from all but 75 of the coun- try's 7,873 polling stations. The Colorados' traditional opposition, the National Party, had 634,166 votes for 32.8 percent. A coalition of leftist parties called the Broad Front had 393,949 votes for 20.4 percent. Votes cast for smaller parties or challenged by election of- ficials made up the remaining 8.4 percent. THE COLORADOS captured 13 of the 30 senate seats while National party members won 11 seats and the Broad Front 6. Precise figures were not available for the 99-member. House of Representatives, but, since cross-party voting is not allowed, the percentage of seats won by each party will not vary greatly from the percentage in the presidential race. The Colorado Party won 12 of the chief administrative posts for the country's 19 provinces, including that of Mon- tevideo, where about half of Uruguay's 2.8 million people live. The National Party won the top elected jobs in the seven other departments. ALBERTO ZUMARAN, the National Party presidential candidate, went to Sanguinetti's headquarters to concede defeat. He embraced the victors as onlookers chanted, "A people united will never be vanquished." African hijackers extend deadline Embassy bombing Associated Press This is all that remains of a compact car under which a bomb exploded yesterday afternoon near the U.S. Embassy in Bogota, Columbia. The at- tack, which killed one Colombian woman and injured five others, came days after U.S. diplomats left Colombia under threats from cocaine smugglers who are angry about plans to extradite Colombians to the U.S. for prosec- ution. Course evaluation suffers postponement ADDIS ABABA, Ethiopia (AP) - Five hijackers, led by a Somali army captain, postponed until this morning a threat to blow up a Somali Airlines Boeing 707 with themselves and 103 hostages aboard. An Ethiopian official said negotiations had reached at "a ielicate and extremely difficult stage." It was the fourth time the hijackers had put off the ultimatum since they seized the plane Saturday on a flight from the Somali capital of Mogadishu and forced it to fly to neighboring Ethiopia. The jetliner had been bound for Jidda, Saudi Arabia. ONE AMERICAN, whose name has not been disclosed by the U.S. Embassy here, is on the plane, as are two Italians and an Egyptian. No further break- down of the nationalities of the passengers was given. An American diplomat, keeping an airport vigil, remarked: "The longer these things go on, usually the better they turn out." The air pirates oppose the gover- nment of Somali President Mohamed Siad Barre. Somalia and Ethiopia have been bitter foes in the Horn of Africa for centuries and have no diplomatic relations, but the Ethiopian Foreign Ministry has acted as an intermediary between the hijackers and the Somali government. The hijackers demanded that Somalia release to neighboring Djibouti seven Somali youths sentenced to death for subversive activities, and 14 prominent political prisoners. *@0**s s " " 0@@.O C 1.75 TUESDfAY ALL DfAY (Continued from Page 1) "FRANKLY, I can't babysit a thousand professors," said Layman. He added that his committee suffers from a lack of totally committed. par- ticipants. In addition to Layman, 12 other students serve on the committee. But at least two say they cannot devote as much time to the booklet as is needed. Several LSA seniors interviewed waiting in line for CRISP said they had never made an active effort to obtain ADVICE in the past. And although many students have referred to it in previous terms some said there have been a number of noticeable problems with the booklet. Rich Wiedis has found the course evaluations "generally accurate," but is bothered because he thinks "students HAIRSTYLISTS For Men, Women and Children at Dascola Stylists Liberty off State - 668-9329 Maple Village - 761-2733 who really have something to bitch about won't stay in the class until the end." Most students say they are adjusting to registration without ADVICE. "In the past it has been a pretty ac- curate gauge of classes, said Larry Rottinick, an LSA senior who had to adapt this term by "learning about my classes purely by word-of-mouth." LSA senior Eric Girdler thought the booklet was helpful both times he used it, but noted that he "canusually find the blow-off classes without it."
