Vol. XCV, No. 92 Copyright 1985, The Michigan Daily Ann Arbor Michigan - Tuesday, January 22, 1985 Fifteen Cents Ten Pages Group protests'U' rape policy Johnson meets with students By STACEY SHONK yVy YThirty students and Ann Arbor residents staged a sit-in at University Vice President for Student Services Henry Johnson's office yesterday to U protest remarks he made about rape in this month's issue of Metropolitan Detroit Magazine. . In an article entitled "Silent Crime," Johnson said the University downplays reports of rape on campus because it could hurt freshman enrollment. "WE'RE NOT here to blame you for the problem of rape on campus," said LSA junior Maureen Fitzsimmons to Johnson. "We're here because we want to help ourselves, and we need your cooperation." The group entered Johnson's office at 9 a.m. yesterday morning and stayed until 5 p.m. Once inside, the protesters met with '. aJohnson and presented their demands for dealing with sexual assaults on campus. "I WAS raped twice on campus, and I had nowhere to go," said one woman as she stared at Johnson,. s "Sometimes I feel like a neurotic, paranoid woman who goes around talking about things people don't want to hear," said Anne Ryan, a graduate Daily Photo by STU WEIDENBACH student, "but I know hundreds of other women ... who are afraid to walk on Henry Johnson meets with students concerned with rape on campus to discuss the University's role in rape prevention,. amps".wh r fadt ako .................................:.:: .............................. ... .................................. ............ ...... Johnson defended his remarks saying they were taken out of context. He called the story "deplorable jour- nalism," but said talking about it wouldn't solve the problem. Johnson handed out copies of a letter he sent to the magazine. "WE TAKE strong exception to the very biased 'Silent Crime' article in your January issue," the letter read. "To say that U-M administrators are lax in dealing with sex offenses is sim- ply not true." One of the problems in implementing rape prevention programs, Johnson said, is that two-thirds of students live in off-campus housing which is outside University security jurisdiction. One protester suggested that the reason the administration does not perceive the magnitude of the rape issue is because they lack accurate statistics. ONLY TWO first-degree rapes were reported directly to University security last year. Only rapes committed again- st students on campus are reported ac- cording to Walt Stevens, director of security. . One of the protester's demands focused on the lack of adequate security patrols on campus. A large security staff protects University buildings, but only four guards patrol outside, accor- ding to Stevens. Other demands included better lighting of residential areas, more rapid repair of existing lighting fix- tures, and an outdoor emergy phone system. WHILE the group talked about the problem with Johnson, one member made a list of his promises on a chalk- board in the conference room. The list said, "Vice President Henry Johnson'will: " make a comprehensive list of ser- vices within the University. " look at Michigan State University, Ohio State University, and Cornell University as possible models to im- jrove Michigan's programs. " find a dedicated phone line for women to share experiences and in- cidences common to women. " explore possibility of free self- defense courses in dorms and other locations. " access to Computing Centers for women. " review all literature in Student Ser- vices to insure that it treats violence against women as a community problem and nota problem restricted to women. The long-term goals of the organization include a crisis center which deals with sexual harassment of all types. Local pro-life groups to protest on Diag By JACKIE YOUNG Members of local anti-abortion groups will rally on the Diag at noon today and march to the University's women's hospital to protest on the 12th anniversary of the Supreme Court decision legalizing most abortions. Pro-life activists will also mark the occasion by placing candles outside their homes to remind people of the 17 million babies aborted, according to Teri Rohde, chairman of Washtenaw County Right to Life. "ONCE PEOPLE are educated and find out the real facts behind (abortion), they will become more vocal," Rohde ssaid. She said that members of groups opposed to abortion have been lighting candles on the anniversary of the decision for the past three years and that 2,000 candles were ordered this year, compared with only 100 the first year. The Ann Arbor Chapter of the National Organization for Women (NOW) does not have any events planned to celebrate the 1973 Supreme Court decision, though NOW af- filiates across the nation are holding vigils in abortion clinics threatened by bomb and arson attacks. THERE HAVE been 30 bomb and arson attacks against abortion clinics nationwide since 1982 and 25 have occurred in the past year, according to government reports. Local abortion clinics say they are prepared to handle violence but have not added extra security for the anniver- sary. "WE ARE being cautious," said a spokeswoman from the local Planned Parenthood, adding that a security guard stationed in the building's lobby is ready to deal with poten- tial anti-abortion pickets. Last fall, Planned Parenthood was picketed frequently on football Saturdays, but staff members say that this ended when they moved from their North Main address to their current location on Professional Drive. Madeline Hansen, president of NOW's Ann Arbor- Washtenaw County chapter,said that the local Planned See PROTEST, Page 5 }-r {v:^:{r"}:":{";C4:}}:"i}} }}}i}\'{<"}ii:i"}?:< i}: i}}:ii:}:i}i:vvi}:-v.:::;: ?$:i{{ }:::j":{v}}i:"}:{ }:{":$}::4?::"iX{{?{"?:"}^:3}:::::'ii}i:y5": ;i: {.:.?_'-i?: }v.yv. vi}i}?}ii'"}?:-i>}:::":-}i:"i:.isti;-ii::"i?:i?>:a::{::?":;"::::i}:":ii}i:}:: i:i:v: is4i::?J:4i}i?:}'ii}:?i"}?>Yi:-i:??:L:"}}: }}:":{4}: : i:;}}}: }: }}:-.::"%::":":5:: "i}:"}:"}}::"}:{3 :": ".vw: tvx";; ...i '\:9Ti"v'::".::":ti": ,:::.v::::::.v::.::"v.":::::.vr::::: :v:.v:: v:". ::: r::::. .. ........ ..r .. r ...... ....... ...... {..........:.... .. .. ..

Reagan and Vice President George Bush, sworn in privately in the White House Sunday, repeated the oath publicly in the Rotunda of the Capitol - out of sight of tens of thousands of loyal Republicans who came to Washington to celebrate four more years in control of the White House. THE PRESIDENT had expected to repeat the performance yesterday on the steps of the west front of the Capitol the dramatic setting of his first inaugural overlooking Washington's Jiistoric monuments. But the sub-zero temperatures forced him to curtail the inaugural celebration 1y cancelling the traditional parade mown Pennsylvania Avenue from the .Capitol to the White House. - Reagan's speech was an anthem of d-the conservative principles that shaped the policies of his first term. The second four years will be more of the same, he said. REAGAN, America's oldest president at 73, called on the nation to use the progress of his first term to "build an American opportunity society, in which all of us - white and black, rich and poor, young and old - will go forward together, arm in arm." "The time has come for a new American emancipation - a great national drive to tear down economic barriers and liberate the spirit of en- terprise in the most distressed areas of our country," Reagan said. "A dynamic economy, with more citizens working and paying taxes, will be our strongest tool to bring down budget dificits." Leaving the specifics to his State of the Union address early next month, Reagan - the nation's 40th chief executive - called for a freeze on government spending, lower deficits, tax reform, a strong national defense and arms reduction. REAGAN reserved three paragraphs to his controversial proposal for a defense against space-borne weapons. "There is only one way safely and legitimately to reduce the cost of national security, and that is to reduce the need for it. This we are tyring to do in negotiations with the Soviet Union," he said. "We are not just discussing limits on any further increase of nuclear weapons. We seek, instead, to reduce them. For the sake of each child in every corner of the globe, we seek, one day, the total elimination of nuclear weapons from the face of the Earth." INSTEAD OF the threat of mutual assured destruction - the so-called MAD deterrent against nuclear war - Reagan said he seeks a security shield to destroy missiles before they reach their target. 'It wouldn't militarize space, it would helpl demilitarize the arsenals of Ear- th," he said. "At the heart of our efforts," he said, "is one idea vindicated by 25 straight months of economic growth: Freedom and incentives unleash the drive and entrepreneurial genius that are the core of human progress." THE PRESIDENT said that by lowering taxes and inflation and in- creasing the number of working Americans, he has proved that too much government can only slow economic growth and discourage initiative. "We must never again abuse the trust of working men and women by sending their earnings on a futile chase after the spiraling demands of a bloated federal establishment," the president said. "You elected us in 1980 to end thi prescription for disaster," Reagan said. "I do not believe you re-elected us in 1984 to reverse course." "With heart and hand, let us stand as one today," Reagan said. "Our people under God determined that our future shall be worthy of our past." By VIBEKE LAROI Students trudging through subzero weather may not just be seeking the haven of classrooms for educational reasons but also as an alternative to a cold apartment or house. John Kahl, a graduate student in Rackham, said the temperature hasn't been above 60 degrees in his apartment since Sunday. Maureen Patzer, an LSA senior said she felt uncomfortable to live downstairs in her house. The upstairs occupants get warm before she and her roommates do, she said. Luckily, though, it was the upstairs pipes that froze, she ad- ded. AS TEMPERATURES hit 18 below zero in the Ann Arbor area, not only the students were complaining, but also the. landlords who have been making quite a few "house calls." "Most (of the problems) are small problems and we're taking care of them," said Elaine Bott, a rental agent of Baker Management. Christopher Barnes of University Towers reported only one breakage of pipes, although he said a lot of people have been complaining about the cold. The maintenance supervisor of Dahlman Apartments, John Meissner, said there have been "600 percent more calls." He said he checked 18 apartments after hours yesterday.
