that had been burning all year in their
hearths, and then light a new fire with
the flame from the giant bonfire.
Fagan p iests also sacrificed
animals-ar sometimes criminals
and people believed to practice sor-
c ery-to appease the spirits. They
tossed the sacrificial bodies into the
hilltop blazes, giving them their
literal names "bonfires."
Hoping to relace the pagan practice
with Christianity, Pope Gregory IV
set All Saints Day on Nov. 1 during the
eighth century. But it took hundreds
of years more before the pagan rites
declined and many of the super-
stitions continued, including the
execution of suspected witches.
New.superstitions even sprung up.
One was the legend of a craftsman
named Jack, who supposedly made a
pact with the devil to become a
master blacksmith in exchange for
his soul. A sign he hung above his shop
door reading ,"Master of Masters of
Trade" sparked concern in Christ and
Saint Peter. According to the story,
the religious figures said they would
give Jack three wishes to forfeit his
mastery.
Since Jack feared he'd lose his soul
to the devil, he agreed, placing these
requests: to keep someone up a tree,
in a chair or in a purse.
Christ granted the wishes, but told
Jack he should have asked to be
allowed to enter heaven. When the
devil came to collect Jack's soul, the
craftsmaneused his wishes to ward off
the devil. The gates to both heaven and
hell were locked against Jack's soul.
While his lost soul was wandering
about, he stuffed red hot coals from a
fire into a large turnip so that the glow
would light his way.
Later thekstorytellers called the
lamp a "Jack-O-Lantern."

Second liver transplant succeeds

By DAVID ROTH
University Medical Center's second
liver transplant recipient, a 38 year-
old Marysville woman, is in serious
condition in intensive care after a 16-
hour operation, according to Medical
Center spokesman David Friedo.
The operation, which began early
yesterday morning, was performed
by doctors Jeremiah Turcotte, chief
of surgery and head of the liver tran-
plant program, Darryl Campbell, and
Donald Dafoe.
THE LIVER donor was identified
only as a 27-year-old Michigan man.

The woman's vital signs were stable
and the liver was functioning yester-
day afternoon after the surgery. The
surgeons reported that the surgery
had gone well, Friedo said.
The transplant was part of the
University Hospitals' two-year-old
Multi-Organ Transplant program.
Fourteen heart transplants, several
pancreas transplants, and "hundreds
of kidney transplants," have been
performed under the program, said
Friedo.
The Unviersity Medical Center is
the only center in Michigan currently
transplanting livers, ,he said. To

qualify for the liver transplant
program, a patient must be diagnosed
as critically ill with a liver disease.
Information was unavailable
regarding the woman's exact liver
disease or how she entred the
program. Hdwever, potential tran-
splant patients are referred to the
program either by physicians at the
University Medical Center or by other
area physicians.
A 22-year-old Detroit man received
a donor liver Aug. 2 in the Medical
Center's first liver transplant. Friedo
said that the man died approximately
six weeks later from a lung infection.,

Asbestos removal Posed
no threat to pedestrians

By NANCY DRISCOLL
Michigan Student Assembly officers yesterday
challenged the impartiality of an ad hoc committee ap-
pointed by President Harold Shapiro on Monday to review
University guidelines on classified research.
In a written statement, MSA President Paul Josephson
and Vice President Phillip Cole criticized the committee
appointment procedure and called for the resignation of
committee member James Leach. The officers said Lesch
should be removed "due to his direct conflict of interest as
Director of the (Division of Research, Development, and
Administration) and partiality on the issues under
discussion."
Josephson and Cole claim that standard appointment

procedures were ignored by Vice President for Research
Linda Wilson, who organized the selection process.
"For University-wide committees the MSA normally
appoints or nominates all those students who will serve
on such a committee," said Eric Schnaufer, MSA's vice
president for personnel. "The administration has
bypassed MSA in order to pick those students it wants to
serve on the committee."
Only one of two students named to the council - law
student Sean Laane - was nominated by MSA. The other
- engineering graduate student Thomas Battle - was
nominated by the Engineering Council. Shapiro solicited
recommendations not only from MSA and the
Engineering Council, but also from LSA Student Gover-
nment, and Rackham Student Assembly.

Credit card companies seek students

By MARY CHRIS JAKLEVIC
Asbestos removed yesterday from
an underground tunnel in front of
Tappan Hall posed no health threat to
pedestrians who walked by the work
area or to employees in nearby
buildings, according to a University
safety official.
Maintenance workers cleaned up
asbestos that had fallen off of pipes in
the tunnel so that a crew repairing the
tunnel's ceiling would. not risk
breathing in the carcinogenic subst-
nance, said Gary Monroe, manager of
the Occupational Safety and En-
vironmental Health Department.
The remaining asbestos on the pipes
was not removed because that could

disperse more asbestos particles into
the air, Monroe said.
Although the tunnel transfers steam
to campus buildings from the Univer-
sity's heating system, the air inside
the tunnel does not enter the
buildings, according to Gregory Metz,
an engineer in charge of heating. and
utilities for the plant department.
Therefore, employees inside ad-
joining buildings need not worry
about exposure, he said.
Last November, employees in Lor-
ch Hall complained about exposure to
carcinogens in theasbestos that was
removed during renovation of that
building.

The tide is turning in the credit card
market.
Students, who used to be considered
a bad risk by credit card companies,
are now being actively pursued by
card issuers.
"STATISTICS prove that students
are just as good at handling credit
cards as the general public," said Joe
McAninch, regional manager of the
College Credit Card Corporation, a
Philadelphia-based firm which
distributes credit card applications at
universities.
McAninch said that though students
don't have a lot of money, they do

have the highest percent of disposable
income of any group, so the money.
they do have gets spent.
And perhaps more importantly,
students have promising financial
futures. "Students are very likely to1
graduate and get high-paying jobs.
They are an extremely valuable
market to these companies. Thet
average credit card (account) has a
life of 12 years, but students could
have that card until they die."
McAninch said students have a
much better chance of receiving
credit while in school, rather than af-
ter graduation, since companies
require little in the way of past credit1

experience or steady employmen
from student applicants. McAninch
said students are rarely denied credit
cards.
The College Credit Card Cor-
poration acts as a middleman bet-
ween the credit card companies and
student organizations, which they pay
to distribute credit card applications
designed especially for students.
Women in Communications, Inc. is
sponsoring a credit card drive in the
Fishbowl today. Applications for
Zales, Sears, Hudson's, Amoco, and
Citibank, Visa, and Mastercard are
available to all juniors, seniors and
graduate students.
