The members of Alpha Gamma Delta sorority will
celebrate their return home tonight after a blaze last Sep-
tember caused extensive damage to the roof and the third
floor of the sorority house.
According to Ann Arbor Fire Marshall Wesley Prater, a
fan near a shower stall in the third floor bathroom probably
caused the blaze.
HOUSE MOTHER Joanne Disch said the cost of the repairs
could run as high as $300,000. "That includes everything -
house furnishings, labor and a new roof," added Disch.
The women were hoping to move back into the house three
weeks after the blaze, but the repairs kept them out for three
months.
"I don't think they realized (at first) how extensive the
damage was. They didn't know how long it would take...the
water damage had to dry," said art student Gayle Ver
Berkmoes. "But the three-month wait was worth it. It looks
great."
THE SORORITY leased the Kalmbach Center, a vacant
University building located at the corner of Washtenaw and
Cambridge, while repairs and restoration work were com-
pleted.
"It wasn't homey - cement walls just doesn't do it," said
AGD member Kelly Braken. "But under the circumstances
we were lucky to have it."
"This is home. Kalmbach Center was home because we
were together but the house wasn't part of us, it wasn't our,"
said Ver Berkmoes.
DURING A Christmas dance as the Kalmbach Center, the
sorority lit a fire in the fireplace to create a little atmosphere
but instead the room filled with smoke. The AGD women
said they laughed and joked that they were reliving the fire
again.
The majority of repair costs were covered by their in-
surance policy with Aetna Life and Causality. "The insuran-
ce company has been very cooperative and we are pleased
with the policy," said AGD alumna Bobbi Stoermer.
Personal insurance policies paid for individual losses.
Most of the AGD members had large dry cleaning bills. LSA
Senior Mary Pfund said her parents' insurance paid for the
dry cleaning and a replacement pair of contact lenses.
Another member, LSA senior Kelly Bracken, said her loss was
"stuff in the bathroom and dry cleaning." - cleaning."
The sorority will celebrate its return home tonight with a
specially catered dinner.

guidelines.
nks Birdsall's
project violates those guidelines.
SHE MADE a presentation to the
RPC claiming that Birdsall's research
would improve the Navy's ability to
locate and trace enemy submarines.
She said this would improve U.S.
nuclear first-strike capabilities and in
doing so increase the probability of a
nuclear war.
Members of the RPC questioned Bir-
dsall's publication record. They said his
lack of publication in the pastmy ahave
been due to restrictions placed on Bir-
dsall by the ONR and that this would
violate the research guidelines.
Williams, chairman of the RPC, said
the guidelines state that researchers
must be free to publish all findings if
the project is to be conducted at the
University.
ACCORDING to Williams, Birdsall
was questioned at the RPC meeting
about his freedom to publish.
"The committee was satisfied that
there were no restrictions on
publication," Williams said.
Many opponents of Birdsall's resear-
ch think the RPC is a front for the ad-
ministration to hide behind. They think
the committee is powerless since the
final decision on research proposals is
in Sussman's hands alone.
Members of the RPC do not agree.
Lewis, a student member, said the
strength of the committee has never
been tested because the recent split
vote marks the first time the committee
has ever opposed a project. He said the
first test will come when the committee
rejects a proposal by a vote of 7-5 or 8-4
and Sussman must make the final
decision. Lewis saidkhe thinks the
committee is valuable to the Univer-
sity. ,
