The new policy comes in response to pressure from the National Center for Disease Control and state and local health departments that hope to avoid outbreaks of the disease on college campuses, said Judith Daniels, assistant director of clinic operations and program development. IN THE past three years, outbreaks of measles have prom- pted Health Services to coordinate voluntary vaccination clinics set up at various locations around campus. But because few students took advantage of this service, the University's Board of Regents decided over the summer to make the im- munizations mandatory to guard against measles epidemics, Daniels said. About 10,000 incoming freshmen, transfers, and graduate students were sent letters in late July informing them of the new requirement, but so far only 3,000 have sent their records to Health Services, said Daniels. University records for Sep- tember show that about 7,000 students still need to respond by Tose who do Will be penaLi Oct. 15 or risk receiving a holdcredit on their reco UNIVERSITY officials hope the new polic measles epidemics like the one that broke ou University in 1983.

After the first musical selection, Jonathan Ellis of Canterbury House asked the audience to observe a moment of silence to think about how they could serve humanity through their education. Canterbury House sponsored the event along with other campus groups concerned with ethics and religion. ONE WOMAN sat between two other women, with her arms draped around. them. During the period of silence, she started to smile and tears-began streaming down her face.

Nuclear engineering Prof. Ronald Gilgenbach will receive $180,512 to research laser and electron beam technology. Electrical engineering Prof. John Meyer has been granted $75,000 to work on advanced computer systems. EACH OF the grants - which were made over the summer - will be ef- fective for exactly one year after their approval. In addition, four other University proposals, totalling nearly six million dollars, are still being evaluated by the Reagan administration's Strategic Defense Initiative Organization. The proposals originated in the political science and chemistry departments within LSA and the aerospace and nuclear engineering .departments within the College of Engineering. UNIVERSITY professors involved in Star Wars research emphasized its non-military applications. "This is basic research and basic research should be applicable to many, many areas," Meyer said. His efforts to improve the speed and reliability of computer systems could also be applied to automobiles, he ad- ded. Meyer said future automobiles may See PROFESSORS, Page 3 Daily Photo by DAN HABIB A crowd of students and Ann Arbor residents watch the Galliard Brass Ensemble's concert yesterday.

The problem with kegs is that,"you have to drink them down or they'll go flat," said Jerrell Jackson, explaining why he is instructing residence staff in his building to crack down on keg parties. "I'M ENFORCING what's written. . that's given," he said. "I will do the job." Jackson declined to specify what penalties would be doled out to those found in violation of the dorm's alcohol plolicy. He said he felt uneasy about giving students information about penalties in case the rules change in the next two weeks. Jackson added that the punishment would probably depend on the situation, with such factors as student cooperation, the number of people in- volved, and the destruction of dorm property involved taken into con- sideration. COUZENS residents reacted with anger to Jackson's news. "It's just not fair that we're the only dorm on cam- pus that this policy has been instituted on," said engineering sophomore Jack Van Tiem.

Pizza king ignores rules and gains fame The art o rushing Selecting a sorority isn't all simple talk By STACEY SHONK Rushing a sorority may seem like a light-hearted af- fair during which hundreds of young women meet other young women and chat about majors and hometowns - and mutual friends - but that's oversimplifying it. 0//? f 1 1( r-~ 42e' /ou This tradition, by which college women choose the Rosy?9w/ 'O'A3f 17/A? sororities they want to join and ,the houses decide 5?/y//4' -ssEs 4RCy, whether they're welcomed, is actually a meticulously p ? g yau'g p gp organized process that began on campus last April. - ' "9 WHEN MORE than 1,200 students arrive at the 17 6A ' 9/IN ) R Ya' R ..... sorority houses tonight and tomorrow evening, for in- &ooZ, (,-oo 6,oP 7' VdA?. stance, the door will most likely be opened by someone A1K 5 whose sole task is to greet them. ' -/E'L S After saying hello, that person will introduce the new arrivals to a predetermined sorority member who then will escort her charges to a specific room of the just- cleaned house. After three or four minutes of conver- sation, she will rotate the rushees to another member for more introductions. Just about every house has mapped out the process, and many have even held dry runs to insure it moves smoothly. "YOU GET PAIRED up and circulated in rush," ad- mitted Carol Muth, an LSA senior who belongs to Alpha Chi Omega. "There's no way you can get around the small talk. Everyone talks about the same things." But the trick to spicing up the conversation - and of- ten to winning an offer of membership - is to rise above the chitchat. "The key is to be interested and interesting," she said. "Those people who get past the small talk are the ones you feel strongly about."

"I broke every rule in the book," the pizza king during a speech spon- sored by the University Christian Outreach and held in the Natural Science Auditorium. "The only thing I knew was that I liked pizza." MONAGHAN said he drifted from a one-year stint in a seminary to the Marine Corps. When he returned in 1960, he decided to enroll in the University's architecture school, but was short on cash. To raise money for tuition, Monaghan joined his brother in purchasing the Dominick's pizza store in Ypsilanti for $500 in 1960. He enrolled in the University twice, but had to drop out both times because of financial problems. He went to work at the pizza store, which he said later "became the busiest store in the U.S." The Ann Arbor-born man later bought out his brother's share - by giving him the store's Volkswagen delivery car - then went on to tran- sform Dominick's into Domino's and See MONEY, Page 2 Monaghan ...speaks about success TODAY Happy hour at sea Sumatra.
