4 Page 2 -The Michigan Dily - Friday, October 18, 1985 PI Lams may form 'U' chapter By TIM DALY Pi Lambda Phi, the nation's first fraternity to be founded on a non- sectarian basis, may soon have a chapter at the University. Currently, 16 undergraduates are members of a Pi Lambda Phi colony. "We are hoping to be recognized as a chapter by the spring of 1986," said Esteban Cabello, treasurer of the Pi Lambda Phi colony. pI LAMBDA PHI was established in 1895 at Yale University to protest the discriminatory practices of other fraternities, colony officers said. "The goals of Pi Lambda Phi will be to maintain diversity," said Edgar Vasquez, president of the colony. "We don't want everyone to dress the same or act the same." The 16 students in the colony are pledges of the national fraternity. On- ce the colony is recognized as a chap- ter by the national fraternity, the pledges become brothers. "WE TURNED in a proposal to the University's Interfraternity Council on Oct. 15 so that we could be recognized by the Council," said Edgar Cano, vice president of the colony. Colony officers are not sure if the Council will recognize the Pi Lambda Phi colony. "There are already too many fraternities, and there has been a bias against Pi Lambda Phi in the past since it's the firstbnon-sectarian fraternity," Cano said. There are other fraternities on campus which have been recognized by a national fraternity, but not by the Interfraternity Council, colony of- ficers said. "THERE WAS a U-M chapter of Pi Lambda Phi from 1913 to 1968," said colony secretary Rich Dreist. However, movement chapter to ficers said. the anti-establishment caused the University close in 1968, colony of- The colony has visited the Michigan State chapter of Pi Lambda Phi, and plans to visit the chapter at Siena Heights College in Adrian. "Our first big party will be the homecoming party to meet U-M alumni of Pi Lambda Phi," Cano said. "This is a unique experience because we're writing our own con- stitution and not following anyone else's standards," Cabello said. School Board approves seven closings By FRANCIE ALLEN The Ann Arbor school board ap- proved a plan early yesterday mor- ning that will close seven elementary schools, forcing many children of University student living on North Campus to transfer school beginning next year. Board members said the 7-2 decision will result in better racial distribution through the district and will also facilitate improvements within the schools remaining open. ACCORDING to parents, many North Campus children - a high proportion of which do not speak English - attend Logan School, where they receive quality instruction in English. Come September, those students will be reassigned to Northside School, which, parents complain, does not have a comparable English-as-a- second-language program, nor the samenquality of overall instruction as Logan. But school board trustee Robert Wallin said the changes should greatly improve the quality of in- struction at Northside. One important factor that he points out, is that this past year Northside has hired four new teachers and a new principal. ADDS SCHOOL board president Eunice Royster: "They're (the North Campus parents) talking about Nor- thside as they know it now. In fact, the quality of education will be better than what they are currently ex- periencing." She said that parents and faculty together will be deciding the curriculum, based on the special needs of the students. COOKIES T..

Under the ad- ministration's proposal, students subject to expulsion or suspension for more then one term would have the right to a jury of their peers, but all other accussed students would be judged by a hearing officer. Yesterday's meeting was largely an organizational meeting to review the council's work up to this point. After 11 months of deliberation, the council is now close to finishing its recommendations on how to deal with life threatening situations. The panel has also agreed, in principle, on how to handle most other crimes. In the event of a life threatening situation, the crime would be reported to a central coordinator, who would decide on what action to take. The coordinator, according to the coun- cil's discussions, would be able to ban the accused from campus, but only until the civil courts could take over. THIS STRAYS from the ad- ministration's stance that the Univer- sity should be able to punish, in ad- dition to, or instead of action taken by the civil authorities. IN BRIEF COMPILED FROM ASSOCIATED PRESS AND UNITED PRESS INTERNATIONAL REPORTS Prime Minister Draxi resigns Prime Minister Bettion Draxi resigned with his government and in an address to Parliament expressed "bitterness" over U.S. protests against his decision to let Palestine Liberation Organization official Mohammed Abbas leave Italy. Draxi allowed Abbas to fly to Yugoslavia despite U.S. assertions it had proof he was the leader of the four Palestinians who seized the Italian luxury liner Oct. 7 and killed Leon Klinghoffer, 69, of New York, during a two-day voyage of terror in the eastern Mediterranean. Earlier yesterday a PLO official who declined to reveal his name told United Press International that Abbas was probably "already in Bagh- dad for a PLO meeting in the Iraqi capital with PLO leader Yasser Afafat" and other Palestinian officials. When asked if the incident could harm relations between the United States and Yugoslavia, which officials described as having been good for years, foreign ministry spokesman Zeljko Jeglic said, "We are not of that opinion (they would be harmed)." Rea an says 'Star Wars' won t violate ARM treaty WASHINGTON-President Reagan, glossing over an apparent policy conflict between two top advisors, said yesterday the objective of his "Star Wars' missile-defense plan can be achieved without violating the 1972 An- ti-Ballistic Missile Treaty. "Everything we're doing is within the context of the treaty," Reagan said while posing for picatures in the Oval Office with Israeli Prime MInister Shimon Peres. The declaration came amid apparent differences between national security advisor Robert McFarlane and Secretary of State George Shultz over what limits, if any, the United States will accept on its Strategic Defense Initiative, popularly known as 'Star Wars'. Jury convicts civilian spy BALTIMORE-A former civilian Navy intelligence analyst who gave three U.S. spy photographs to a British military journal was convicted by a federal jury yesterday of espionage and theft of government property. Samuel Loring Morison, 40, was convicted of two counts of espionage and two counts of theft of government property, each count carrying a possible 10-year term and $10,000 fine. Morison, who remains free on $100,000 bond, left the courthouse wihtout comment. U.S. District Judge Joseph Young set sentencing for Nov. 25. Morison's defense attorneys, including Mark Lynch of the American Civil Liberties Union, had argued that prosecution of Morison en- dangered the First Amendment rights of both government officials and the news media. With Morison's case as a precedent, high-level officials could unjustly control the flow of government information to the public, Lynch argued. He said low-level government officials would be threatened with espionage and theft prosecution if they leaked embarrassing information, so only in- formation favorable to the U.S. government would be released. San Antonio health department bans sex for AIDS victims SAN ANTONIO, Texas - The city health department has hand-delivered letters to 14 AIDS victims warning that sexual activity will result in felony charges against them, and the mayor says carriers of the disease should "transcend their individual rights" in deference to society. The letters dispatched this week also order the AIDS victims to avoid exposing others to the disease through sharing needles or donating blood or plasma, and to caution physicians and dentists with whom they come into contact. "I think most people are reasonable and that they wil follow the last paragraph in the letter to accept this letter in the spirit in which it was in- tended and help me in my effort to protect the public health," Dr. Courand Rothe, director of the health department, said yesterday, L.A. fires char 80,000 acres LOS ANGELES - Cool ocean breezes and a damp fog helped firefighter contain two more of the 19 wild fires that have charred more than 80,000 acres in Southern California. But they feared yesterday that flames might invade a wildlife refuge. The blazes were the first major brush fires in Southern California since July, when a series of fires blackened more than 300,000 acres, destroyed more than 65 homes and killed three people. The largest of the fires that have burned since Monday, resulting in the death of one man, creeped to within two miles of the Sespe Wildlife San- ctuary in the Los Padres National Forest of Ventura County. The protected area, a habitat for the endangered California condor, was in the direct path of the 42,500-acre fire, a Ventura County fire spokesman said. GNP grows by 3.3 percent WASHINGTON - The nation's gross national product grew at a healthy annual rate of 3.3 percent during the third quarter, the gover- nment reported yesterday and the administration said the figures were evidence of "sustained, steady growth" in the economy. Commerce Department economists said the GNP - the broad measure of the nation's goods and services - benefitted from substantial boosts in spending by consumers and government. The GNP for the July-September quarter was significantly ahead of the preliminary "flash" estimate of 2.8 percent growth issued last month by government economists. Department economists said military spending grew unexpectedly, accounting for most of the lower earlier estimate. But a privte economist was more skeptical about the possibility of con- tinued growth, saying he saw "very little prospect" for strong growth in the next several months. 0 hi sicht-gan tll VolIXCVI - No. 32 The Michigan Daily (ISSN 0745-967 X) is published Monday through Friday during the Fall and Winter terms.
