Dorm residents sign up for fast

By MARC CARREL
Dorm residents are signing up this
week to participate in a meal fast
which is being held in conjunction
with Oxfam America's 12th Annual
Fast for a World Harvest.
Students will forgo their evening
meal on Nov. 21, contributing the
money to charity.
THE WORLD Hunger Education
Action Committee, which is spon-
soring the. event locally, is expecting
to exceed last year's total of $6,000.
The money from the fast will be
donated to charities like the Soup Kit-
chen of Detroit, the Ann Arbor Hunger
Coalition, and Oxfam America, which
is an international agency that funds
self-help projects in Third World
nations.
Gita Pillai, a co-coordinator of the
program for the residence halls, said
that the fast is "not only to raise
proceeds, but to also raise awareness
on issues of world hunger in the
United States as well as worldwide."
THE FAST has been held on cam-
pus for several years now, but it has
never been done all on the same day,
said Pillai, a resident director in East
Quad.

The hunger committee decided to
hold the fast on the same day
throughout the University to increase
its effectiveness, addbd Pillai.
To qualify for the fast, a dorm must
have at least 30 percent of its residen-
ts sign up. Couzens Hall last year had
the highest rate of participation with
86 percent.
AT COUZENS this year, Resident
Advisor Sherif Emil, who was
working at a sign-up table said "after
forty minutes we have about 100
people signed up, so we're doing
well."
Explaining why he signed up,
engineering sophomore Azlan Yaacob
said "I like to do it to help people."

"Every little bit helps," said Vince
Henry, also an engineering
sophomore.
FOR EACH person participating in
the fast, the housing's food service
will donate a certain amount of money
equaling the raw food cost of the
meal.
This money will be given in a lump
sum to the hunger committee which
will distribute it according to where
residents requested whey they first
signed up.
FRATERNITIES, sororities, co-ops,
and even individual households will
participate in the fast, according to
Audrey Haberman, co-coordinator of
the event for non-residence halls.

Former U.S. president Gerald Ford talks yesterday with Bob Nederlander, a former University regent who is
now chairman of the Campaign for Michigan. The committee, which hopes to raise $160 million for the Univer-

propriation "has a fighting chance -
'but only a fighting chance."
"There s a realization in the
legislature that the University of
Michigan got short-changed last
time," Pollack said. "Will this tran-
slate into votes? I don't know."
"The very same politics that said
'why give more money to the research
universities' last summer will be
'there again," Pollack said.

engineering college has attempted to
secure money from private industry
and from various government agen-
cies - including the National Science
Foundation and the Department of
Defense.
He said the laboratories' research
in micro-electronics could be applied
to DOD weapons systems but also to
"anything from electronic games to
computers."

reached for comment yesterday, but
he has stated in the past that several
million dollars worth of free equip-
ment has already been provided by
industrial equipment suppliers.
Vest said the rest of the money
already granted from the Research
Excellence Fund will probably go
towards staffing and equipping the
University's Center for Machine In-

telligence and Center for Research in
Integrated Manufacturing.
Although "the details aren't ironed
out yet, "he said the money is
"essential for getting these things
going at full speed."
Kennedy called this week's ap-
propriation "very significant
because it funds a set of programs
that are vital to the interests of the
state of Michigan in terms of its
economic development."

LSA junior Christine Burns says she
tries to come to the Monday night;
dances every week for the "pure en-
joyment involving something outside
of classes and sorority."
Most of the students have had little
if any experience square dancing.
That doesn't matter, says caller Jim
Baker, because he teaches the
modern Western style of square dan-
cing. Unlike the old style taught in
grade school gym classes, the modern
style doesn't involve the memorized
patterns of dance steps. Instead,
Baker simply shouts steps at random.
That means his dancer have to pay
close heed.
"So many people think they're clut-
zes," he says, adding with a wave of
his hands, "But when they actually
start dancing..."
Baker has volunteered his services
to the group since its inception. He
says he enjoys it so much that he
doesn't mind the strain it places on his

cers meet afterward until 10 p.m.
