4 Page 2 - The Michigan Daily - Friday, October 11, 1985 Inquiring Photographer By Dean Randazzo "How do you feel about the mandatory $100 per term computer fee recen- tly passed by the regents?" I Diane Dalton, Alumna: It's not quite fair for students who have no use of com- puters to have to pay the fee. The only advantage I can see is that if a student was ac- tually forced to use com- puters, it would be good because they are probably going to have to know something about them in the working world. John Arent, Alumnus: My opinion is that the computer fee is good because it will pay for computers and it will make the University more competitive and productive academically. Since U of M has to compete with other universities in the job market we have to keep up in the new technology. Mark Weisbrot, Graduate student: I am against it. I think that some people use computers a lot more than others and at the very least the students should be able to vote on something like this, rather than just have the regents decide. Patty Olsen, LSA Junior: I don't think that the fee is fair. That's quite a bit to ask of students for using com- puters. Jong Ho Kim, Graduate student: I think it is unfair to make all students pay a computer fee. If the students use the computers then they should pay the fee. If they don't use them they shouldn't have to pay. Blackouts plague central campus (Continued from Page 1) contractors for Centel Business Ser- vices, the company in charge of in- stalling new telephone lines around campus, may have accidentally damaged underground cables, triggering the blackouts. Douglas Dunlap, project manager at Centel, confirmed that contractors are working around campus, but he said that they have not worked around South University Avenue since the summer. Mason said Detroit Edison workers were told by the University to make fixing the Diag lights their number one priority. And those lights were restored within a few days. Workers were "lucky" to spot the problem for the Diag lights and repair them so quickly, he said. AS FOR THE other streetlights, STUDENTS THE ADMISSIONS OFFICE NEEDS VOLUNTEERS for MINORITY RECRUITMENT * Campus Visits * Phone Contacts * High School Visits * Special Projects SIGN UP BY NOVEMBER 1 AT: Mason said he would like to have them restored within 48 hours. But he qualified this, saying that the magnitude of the problem would make it unlikely for that to happen. A work crew has been assigned to the repairs and will be working on "100 percent time," Mason said. "They're going to be working on Saturday . . . They're working until dark . . . We're trying to get them to work as many hours as they can."~ Detroit Edison has been receiving complaints from numerous students who are afraid for the safety of the campus, said Mason. MICHIGAN Student Assembly member Rick Frenkel said he called Henry Johnson, vice president for student services, Tuesday afternoon and "expressed lighting concerns on behalf of the students." According to Frenkel, Johnson agreed there was a problem, and said he would take it to the executive officers. Johnson could not be reached for comment last night. "THERE'S NO other form of back-, up lighting provided, and it's almost. pitch black," Kohnstamm said. "If there's not some type of provision in their (the University's) contract with Detroit Edison for backup lighting, then they need to have their contract updated." Daily reporter Francie Allen filed a report for this story.

But U.S. officials said they were not sure where the hijackers were. Two Reagan administration officials said they believed the four hijackers, who were accused of killing an elderly American passenger aboard the Italian cruise ship Achille Lauro, had been sent to an airport outside Cairo in early afternoon EDT and that Egyptian authorities were preparing to fly them to an unknown destination. Egyptian President Hosni Mubarak said the hijackers had become the Palestine Liberation Organization's responsibility, but a PLO spokesman in Tunisia said the pirates had not been turned over. Earlier, President Reagan said that if the PLO had custody of the hijackers, it should turn them over to "a sovereign state" to prosecute them for the murder of an American passenger, 69-year-old Leon Klinghoffer. Klinghoffer, a retired New Yorker who was confined to a wheel chair, was killed and thrown overboard by the hijackers who were demanding that Israel release Palestinian terrorists. Moslems hold Soviet officials BEIRUT, Lebanon - Moslem extremists said in a statement published yesterday they will not free three kidnapped Soviet Embassy officials even though their main demand - a halt to fighting in Tripoli - has been met. "Now that Syrian guns and missiles have stopped bombarding Tripoli, we must explain the real reasons which prompted us to do what we have done," the extremists' statement said. The extremists kidnapped four soviets on Sept. 30 from the streets of Moslem West Beirut, killed one two days later, and said it would not free the others until Moscow persuaded its closest ally in the Middle East, Syria, to stop a Syrian-backed assault on the northern port of Tripoli. A cease-fire was declared Oct. 3 between leftist militias assaulting Tripoli and Moslem fundamentalists in control of the city center, following 15 days of fierce battles in which at least 500 people were killed and more than half the 500,000 population fled. P.R. considers mass grave PONCE, Puerto Rico - The National Guard ordered everyone out of Mameyes shantytown yesterday after Puerto Rico said it was considering making a common grave of the mudslide that was believed to have buried up to 500 people this week. Gov. Rafael Hernandez Colon said a decision will be made soon whether to seal off the disaster site outside Ponce to avoid an outbreak of disease. "We don't have much time," Hernandez Colon said. The governor's office said the action could be taken by this weekend. A 30-hour tropical deluge triggered the avalanche Monday morning that toppled some 400 wood and tin shacks in the hillside shantytown out- side Ponce. Dr. Giodano San Antonio, the Ponce region's health department direc- tor, said decomposing bodies, covered by mud, rocks and splintered homes, were creating a threat of water contamination, typhoid fever, mosquito-borne diseases, tetanus and diphtheria. Shultz backs Jordan arms sale WASHINGTON - Secretary of State George Shultz told skeptical senators yesterday that approval of the Reagan adminstration's $1.9 billion arms sale to Jordan is an "absolute necessity" for ultimate suc- cess in the search for peace in the Middle East. Testifying before the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, Shultz said Jordan's King Hussein has taken "courageous moves" toward opening negotiations with Israel, and added that from the king's point of view, "You like to feel that peace has friends, and the friends of peace will stand with you." But several members of the committee challenged Shultz description of events in the Middle East. "I disagree that the king of Jordan has made meaningful moves," said Sen. Rudy Boschwitz, R-Minn. "... He puts a number of obstacles in the way of peace." Shultz' 90-minute appearance before the committee represented the beginning of what is expected to be a hard sell for the adminstration to win approval for its proposed sale of sophisticated aircraft and air defen- se missiles to Jordan. Guerrillas attack army base LA UNION, El Salvador - Up to 400 leftist guerrillas attacked the ar- my's main training center yesterday, killing dozens of soldiers and wounding 68, the army said. It was the rebels' biggest operation in over a year. But the insurgents failed in their apparent objective of blasting the rows of barracks where about 2,000 trainees slept. Soldiers recovered several home-made bombs, which they placed in a large pile near the bodies of 10 rebels in a make-shift morgue at this sprawling base 113 miles east of the capital. Lt. Col. Joaquin Cerna Flores, commander of the Military Training Center of the Armed Forces, said 40 soldiers died in the attack. An em- ployee at nearby La Union hospital said it had received the bodies of 58 soldiers. The guerrillas' clandestine Radio Venceremos claimed gover- nment casualties were near 200, but did not give a breakdown of dead and wounded. Thedconflicting reports could not be verified. It was the worst blow to the army since last Dec. 3 when rebels killed 43 soldiers, wounded 20 and captured 40 in an ambush at El Saslto, 35 miles southwest of the capital.
