Cl~rotester s chagsdropped; trial continues By AMY MINDELL Trespassing charges were dropped last night against a second-year law student, who was among 26 demonstrators arrested during a protest of the CIA's recruitment on campus last October. The ten other defendants who were on trial with law student Dmitri Iglitzin, most of whom are University students, will have to return to 15th District Court today to hear the jury's verdict. Nine also face charges of trespassing while Ann Arbor resident Dave Buchen is accused of hindering and op- posing a police officer. JUDGE GEORGE Alexander accepted a 'directed verdict' from Molly Reno, attor- ney for law student Dmitri Iglitzin, which dropped charges against Iglitzin on the grounds of insufficient evidence of his presence while the trespass act was read. Reno refused to comment on the case. ] Others still facing charges for trespassing are Dean Baker, Rackham Student Gover- nment president, Hugh McGuinness, a biology teaching assisant, LSA seniors Carey Garlick and Tamara Smith, LSA juniors John Hartigan and Claudia Green, graduate student Steve Latta and LSA senior Chris Faber, who will be tried in absentia because he is in Nicaragua. THE defendant's attorneys Reno and Nancy Francis tried to tie the argument that the protesters as students had a right to be in the Student Activities Building where the demonstration took place, but Judge Alexander did not allow the argument. He said the issue was not whether the demonstrators have a right to be in the building, but whether they had the right to stay there, after the states trespass act was ready by Deborah Orr May, director of the Office of Career Planning and Placement. The trespass notice stated that protesters had to leave the building or they would be arrested. It also included a warning that future entry into any University-owned or leased building will subject them to arrest. DEFENSE attorneys questioned May's authority to read the act because she is not the owner, occupant or agent of the building as qualified by the law. But Alexander said she had proper authority to do so under past directives by former University President Roben Flem- ming. Prosecuting attorney Bob Levine; said in his opening statement that the defendants are guilty as charged," despite the reasons they were (in the SAB)." Levine declined to comment on the case. The first four of the 26 demonstrators were acquitted January 23. They were charged with disorderly conduct. The last trial in connection with the two- day protest will be this Thursday. Ten demonstrators are charged wit hindering and opposing arrest, a city charge. d3v' ,e iSEf ,"b'Ya" ~zo, 3{.. .:<; n. s; 1./.. ,T.,' :.¢ ..,,",., :.....,... ~ '_ Homeless combat despairs with hopes at Ann Arbor shelter (Continued from Page 1) here. And that's my right," he says. "They don't want yo to get out of this place," he says, jabbing a thum- btack into the table in front of him. Chris, who has remained silent until now, enters the conversation. "You can see the regulars here. Most people stay here. Some people come and go," Chris says. "YOU CAN gripe about it (staying at the shelter). But the real reason is you're not motivating yourself," he says. "If they wanted to help you, they wouldn't make it easy for you (by providing a day shelter). They make it easy for you to be a bum," he says. Pete has a full time job at the Cam- pus Inn. But he says the high cost of living keeps him homeless. "The clothes I buy, I like. I have to eat, I have to buy clothes. And by the time I do that my check is gone," he says. "WE DON'T have any pride, that's what they try to tell us," he says. He pulls clothes out from his bag. "This Guess Jacket cost $120. The pants cost $30. The coat costs $30. And the 501's cost another $30," he says. G INNIE Pyookowski, the program coordinator, argues with Pete about the probable success of the jobs program. She says the job club will teach the people how to interview, teach them about their skills and in- terests, and teach them how to write a resume.Pete says job skills aren't the problem, though. "You write these people off as stupid. All these people need is pressure for them to go out," says Pete. "You'll have one or two people in your jobs program," he says. Pypkowski thinks there will be a lot more in the program. "I know it works," she says. "Especially if people seeJoe 'Shmoe down the street making more than minimum wage. They'll say, 'Hey, I want that job.' " SOME don't want to participate in the program, she admits. "If people want to sit around downstairs, an ad- vocate (social worker) will come up to them and establish a rapport with them," she says. "We won't force anyone," she says. "Because if you tell someone they're I Chicago native who now has a home. and comes by the shelter to help people. Brooks says he and the others try to provide a model for some of the men- tally ill people at the shelter. "They see us and they try to follow us. Ginnie tries to help. This is a good place for the mentally ill to come and get out of the cold," he says. The shelter "is like a therapy," he says. "Outside of an institution, this is the best therapy," he says. "THIS IS a place where they feel wanted. Not like an outcast of society," says Patrick Patillo, who had previously identified himself as Michael Jackson. "We are poor,; but we can still love," says Patillo, a Detroit native. "You can't rush nothing. You got to take it one day at a time," says Brooks. "A lot of people come out of here getting jobs. That's very positive," he says. "We aren't street people," says Patillo. "You see him," he says, referring to the student at Washtenaw Community College. "He's a student. You could pass by him at school and not know the difference." SAYS William: "I got a three-piece suit I could put on and you wouldn't know me from anybody else walking down the street." "We are just stuck. I'm here and I'm making the best of it," says Patrillo. "I quit drinking." "I haven't done nothing in 7 mon- ths," says William. The visitor asks Patrillo why he was unwilling to talk earlier. "I can't explain my suffering to you in five minutes. Because you won't under- stand," he says. "SUFFERING ain't negative, homeboy," he says. "It brings about moral fiber. We're moral. We live together," he says. "We're all in this together - Chicago, New York, South Africa," says Eric, gesturing around the room. Just then the Temptations' song "My Girl" comes over the radio. "I got sunshine on a cloudy day," the song begins. Someone shouts out, "Write that down, man, we got sunshine." "We got sunshine," says another.

They've been on the system for a couple years. What would motivate people to get off it?" she says. "THE SYSTEM perpetuates not having a job," Pypkowski says. "If people take a job at $3.50 an hour, they .lose all their benefits, they get no foodstamps and no help with housing," she says. Jill, (not her real name), a woman sitting in the office, agrees. The pay for a minimum wage job amounts to less than the government benefits, says Jill. Pypkowski estimates the jobs program will initially place about 50 to 60 percent of the people at the shelter. "It will go up from there," she says. "PEOPLE are showing a willingness to work." Her sentiment is echoed down- stairs where some of the people are playing cards and talking. "I came to the shelter two years ago," says a man in his 20s. "I've been working off and on. And I had to make up my mind whether I wanted to live in the fast lane or get a place to live in," he said. "I JUST recently turned my life around. I am a student at Washtenaw Community College. And I was working at Olga's," he said. "The day shelter is cool. It beats running around the streets. I come here after school and do homework. I will move into an apartment in Mar- ch. I don't consider myself a street person. I've got too many things going for me," he says. "I've beaten the odds. Just because you come from the street doesn't mean you're beaten," he says.
