4 Page 2 - The Michigan Daily - Monday, December 9, 1985 Hanukkah candles set Aice Lloyd room fire i By AMY MINDELL A fire started by holiday candles caused an hour-long evacuation of the Alice Lloyd residence hall last night, according to Ann Arbor Fire Depar- tment Battallion Chief Ronald Hieber. The fire, which broke out around 7:30 p.m., was confined to room 5529 in the dorm's Angell House. Hieber said there was no structural damage to the building. Room resident Ron Emanuel lit candles to celebrate Hanukkah and left them burning while he went to study, according to Dan Silmore, an LSA freshman who lives across the hall. Silmore said he assumed that a false fire alarm was being sounded until he opened his door and found the hall filled with smoke. He said there was considerable damage to the contents of the room, which is occupied by Emanuel and his roommate, Craig Haase. "The walls and ceiling are black and the desks are charred," Silmore said. "All Ron's notes and books are gone.,, Judge decries segregation (Continued from Page 1)_ dual system of higher education; that in certain aspects, the dual system yet exists; and that in other respects, the 'root and branches' of the system have not been destroyed," Clemon said. THE RULING resulted from a lawsuit filed 21!> years ago by the U.S. Justice Department. Clemon heard more than a month of testimony during a trial this summer and received yard-high mounds of documents from most universities. The judge gave Wallace, the Alabama Commission on Higher Education and the state Public School and College Authority until Feb. 14 to submit a plan based on U.S. Office of Education criteria for desegregating the state's system of higher education. If the state fails to propose a plan that satisfies him, then Clemon will hold a second trial to determine remedies. THE STATE could bypass a second trial if the predominantly white universities and the governor reach a settlement with the Justice Depar- tment and the traditionally black universities. Talks aimed at settling the case before Clemon ruled broke down last month. John Knight, an Alabama State administrator who led a group of students, faculty and alumni who intervened in the federal court case, said he did not expect a second round to prove successful. Auburn President James Martin declined comment yesterday. "I haven't seen the ruling yet," Martin said. "I think it would be inap- propriate to comment." The same position was taken by Bill O'Connor, spokesman for the Univer- sity of Alabama System; Leon Howard, president of Alabama State; and Troy Massey, vice chairman of the Alabama A&M trustees, all of whom said they were caught off guard by Clemon's surprise release of the ruling on a weekend. Associated Press' Strawberry fields forever Fans gather around a mosaic in Central Park's Strawberry Fields, which was dedicated yesterday by Yoko Ono to commemorate the fifth anniver- sary of former Beatle John Lennon's death. Ono and Lennon's sons left a note in Strawberry Fields for fans who came to pay homage to the ex- Beatle saying, "Thank you for thinking of John." Student to march for peace in Central America (Continued from Page 1) Los Angeles on Friday. Other public figures lending their support to the 'project include novelist Graham Greene, actress Julie Christie, andthe Rev. Jesse Jackson. Although this isn't Weinsteins's first peace march, it is his longest. he has been walking to prepare for the trip, but he said buses will be available for most of the route. "(The coor- dinators) didn't want the focus to be on how physically fit the people are. They wanted the focus to be on the issues themselves." Last year, Weinstein and four others walked to Detroit "in solidarity with the people of Nicaragua" to mark the fifth anniversary of the Nicaraguan revolution. Weinstein heard about the inter- national peace march last summer and decided to participate last month. The march will cost him $1,000, which includes airfare and $500 in spending money. Weinstein is covering the ex- penses himself with the help of donations from friends. He added that he is taking ad- ditional money to give to Central American refugees "because they need the money and I don't." Journeying into war zones will be dangerous and unpleasant, but Wein- stein is prepared. "It's not going to be comfortable in places where there's fighting, but that's a reality. We're giving very little compared to what these people have to give to live," he said. IN BRIEF COMPILEDFROM ASSOCIATED PRESS AND UNITED PRESS INTERNATIONAL.REPORTS Opposition to Marcos splits MANILA, Philippines - A unity bid between Corazon Aquino and Salvador Laurel fell apart yesterday, dimming opposition prospects for defeating President Ferdinand Marcos in a Feb. 7 special election. While Laurel's supporters cheered and fireworks exploded at his family compound, the former senator blamed Mrs. Aquino for the collap- se of talks that would have put her at the top of the opposition ticket against Marcos. Instead of accepting Mrs. Aquino's offer to run as her vice presidential candidate on a single ticket, Laurel said he would run on his own for president. Laurel, who heads the largest coalition of anti-Marcos forces, said he refused because Mrs. Aquino - "for undisclosed reasons" - was un- willing to run as a candidate for his United Nationalist Democratic Organization, or UNIDO. Mrs. Aquino said she hoped the opposition would unite behind her and Laurel and invited him to join in a "wrand coalition" ticket. But fragmenting of the opposition gives Marcos, at least for now, two rivals, each with distinct followings, strengthening his chances of keeping the presidency he has held since 1965. Guatemala elects president GUATEMALA CITY - Guatemalans voted yesterday for a civilian president after more than 30 years of virtually uninterrupted and often brutal military rule in this Central American country. By dawn, lines of voters, mostly men, formed in streets littered with the remains of bonfires and spent fireworks from a festival the night before, ready to cast their ballots when the polls opened at 7 a.m. (8 a.m. EST). The runoff election pitted Vinicio Cerezo, 42, a lawyer who is the slightly left-of-center candidate from the Christian Democratic Party, and Jorge Carpio, 53, a newspaper publisher viewed as a somewhat right- of-center candidate from the National Center Union. They were the top vote-getters in the first election, on Nov. 3, in which eight candidates ran. No candidate received a clear majority as required by law. Pre-election polls gave Cerezo a 2-to-i margin over Carpio, who foun- ded his own political party two years ago. In the November election, Cerezo received 28.6 percent of the vote, and Carpio got 20.2 percent. AMA may urge AIDS tests for couples getting married WASHINGTON - Couples should be tested for exposure to the deadly AIDS virus before being granted marriage licenses, says a resolution scheduled for consideration this week by American Medical Association policymakers. The resolution, one of several on the disease, was included in a thick book of proposals distributed yesterday to 361 members of the AMA's House of Delegates, who will be voting on them tomorrow and Wed- nesday. The AIDS resolution says, "Acquired immune deficiency syndrome has in the last few years become a hazard to our American society; the American public has become very aware of this hazardous physical illness and ... the disease of AIDS is rapidly becoming a threat to the health of all the American people." Most states already require some premarital tests before issuing marriage licenses. Pope closes Vatican synod VATICAN CITY - Pope John Paul II, declaring that the Roman Catholic Church "truly desires to be the church in the modern world," closed yesterday an extraordinary synod of bishops called to assess the Second Vatican Council. In a Mass he concelebrated with synod participants and other prelates in St. Peter's Basilica, the pontiff stressed that the church should also be like the early church of the Apostles. "At the end of the second millennium after Christ, the church earnestly desires only one thing: to be the same church that was born of the Holy Spirit," he said in his homily, delivered in Italian. The 65-year-old pope, who attended nearly every session of the two-week assembly of 165 bishops, appeared tired and his voice hoarse. He said the synod accomplished the goal it set out to achieve - "celebrate, verify, and promote the council." "As we come out of the synod, we wish to intensify our pastoral efforts to ensure that the Second Vatican Council is more widely and more thoroughly known," he said. OPEC moves toward price war GENEVA - OPEC oil ministers, unable to resolve their feud over fixed pricing and output controls, moved yesterday toward a full price war with non-member countries. Saudi Oil Minister Sheik Ahmed Zaki Yamani said the price of oil could fall to $20 a barrel from the present levels of $25 to $29, depending on quality, if OPEC members start an all-out price war. At the year-end meeting of the 13-member Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries, the ministers ruled out any agreement on a new pricing strategy. The conference, the seventh in 12 months, began Satur- day and was expected to end by today. The ministers met again in private yesterday night in the suite of Yamani. OPEC presently controls about one-third of the free world market, as opposed to a two-thirds share in its heyday in the late 1970s. Before the session, ministers told reporters the central issue under discussion was the protection of OPEC's remaining share of world markets. 01 he AMihigan 1Dtlg Vol XCVI-- No.66 The Michigan Daily (ISSN 0745-967 X) is published Monday through Friday during the Fall and Winter terms.
