Med students aid C. America
By JOHN DUNNING
A national drive to send 40 new
;and used stethoscopes to Nicaragua
;and El Salvador is currently under
way at the University's Medical
;C4mpus.
The University's chapter of the
American Medical Student As-
sociation (AMSA) created the plan
last year and made it a national
Icampaign. The drive is mainly
motivated by humanitarian con-
cerns, but political reasons also
splay a role, according to medical
.student Jim Kerwin, the project's
co-director.
"We support progress and health
,care in Central America," said
,Kerwin. "We support the changes
,being made in Nicaragua that help
;provide health care to everyone,
,especially the poor. We also
rsupport the University of El
'Salvador, because we think they are
trying to provide health care to their
;pooixand needy as well.";
KERWIN SAID AMSA
supports any health care regardless
of the politics behind the advance.
;He noted that AMSA has no
.opinion on the military or military
;activity of either country. "We re
not sending them (the stethoscopes)
rto the Sandinistas or the Contras,"
she said.
Kerwin praised the Nicaraguan
,government, however, for making
more progress in health care than
the Salvadoran government. The
,Sandinistas support the National
.University of Nicaragua's medical
1school in Managua and Leon.

extinguished six fires-including
several trash can fires and one blaze
'that damaged a warehouse-in a
four-hour period yesterday morning,
?according to Fire Marshall Wesley
;Prater. Officials believe the fires
were deliberately set, probably with
a cigarette lighter or match, Prater
said.
"At one time, every front line
piece of equipment was committed
to an alarm," Prater said.
Firefighters responded to the first
call at 3:47 a.m. at an alley
)Ibetween the 200 block of Liberty

lack of progress leaves most of the
responsibility for improving health
care upon the University of El
Salvador in San Salvador, he added.
THE LOCAL AMSA chapter
hopes to collect and send at least 40
stethoscopes to medical students in
Nicaragua and El Salvador. The
recent earthquake in El Salvador and
continuing war in Nicaragua only
make the need for stethoscopes
greater, according to AMSA co-
director Joan Filler, a University
medical student.
"Stethoscopes are one of the best
primary tools for anyone working
with any problems," she said.
Most of the stethoscopes going
to Nicaragua and El Salvador are
donated by University medical
students. "All first year medical
students are given a stethoscope
gratis by a pharmaceutical com-
pany," said internal medicine Prof.
Andrew Zweifler. Because most
students opt to buy a better quality
stethoscope early on, they end up
with the free stethoscope laying
around and getting no use.
AMSA sent 30 stethoscopes to
Nicaragua last year and had no
problem with U.S. Customs
sending the supplies.
The University of El Salvador
and the National University of
Nicaragua's medical school will be
the recipients of AMSA's
stethoscope campaign.
An AMSA member will take the
$45 stethoscopes slated for
Nicaragua along with a delegation
from the Ann Arbor Managua

At 4:35 a.m., firefighters put
out the third trash can fire at Fifth
and Liberty streets. About half an
hour later, a blaze at the Law
Montessori day care school at 416
S. Ashley St. caused minor damage
to the porch. The fifth fire, set
around 5:30 a.m., caused $2,500
worth of damage to a laundry room

A malfunction in the furnace of

damage in the warehouse.
Firefighters responded to the blaze

from the University of El Salvador
in New York early next year.
