I Page 2 - The Michigan Daily - Tuesday, March 17, 198' Courses taught by local (Continued from Page 1) Professor Peter Behers, who is teaching classes on international relations law, is replacing a professor on sabbatical. Behers, ;from the University of Hamburg, Germany, said he accepted the University's offer because of its "good research facilities and extremely good (law) library." The College of Pharmacy also uses both visiting and adjunct professors, according to Dean Ara, Paul. John Topliss is an adjunct professor from Ann Arbor's Warner Lambert Park Davis Pharmaceutical Division. Topliss has lectured on drug design for three years. He feels his lectures "create a bridge from what is taught in the classroom to how it all relates to practical applications." Most visiting professors work in the College of Literature, Science, and the Arts. Chris Miller, an associate professor of English from Pomona College in California, is one of LSA's 28 visiting professors this term. Miller will stay at the University one semester teaching both an undergraduate and graduate course. Often visiting professors are hired to cover temporary openings, said Jack Walker, LSA associate dean for academic affairs. Visiting professors are occasionally offered a full-time position at the University, but this applies to only two or three professor a year, Walker said. Salaries are comparable to those at home-schools. But the visiting professor program is not without difficulties, Walker said. If students have incomplete papers or miss a final, it can become a big hassle when the professors return to their universities because students must clear up problems long distance, he explained. Associated Press B eara troopers A platoon of "Bearatroopers" prepares for maneuvers in toy stores throughout the United State and Canada. The Bearatroopers come ready to jump out of bearaplanes with their own "bearachute." Militarism has never been this cute. Studets say late nightshepgrades (Continued from Page 1) stimulates the central nervous system, allows thoughts to flow more easily and readily, and decreases fatigue and drowsiness. In large doses, however, "caffeine can cause insomnia, irrita- bility, nervousness, tremors, extra heartbeats and headaches," according to a University Health Service pamphlet. To make up for the lack of sleep that most students experience after staying up late studying, some students resort to naps. Many take a nap as a daily habit. LSA sophomore Neil Bernstein said naps are "the greatest invention ever made." Others nap in class, especially large lectures. Still others choose to simply sleep straight through their classes, because "sleeping during class is like not going - little registers one way or the other," according to Lisa Pera an LSA freshman. Most students think they will still do adequately in the classes they sleep through. "It balances out," said one LSA senior. "If you stay up all night for a class, and then sleep through it the next day, then you're forced to make it up by staying up again another night." Only upcoming finals will tell if the early to bed and rise theory or the all-nighter one will win out. Students compete without party spot By PAMELA FRANKLIN Independent candidates in today's MSA election may have a tough time becoming known without help from a party to publicize their names. Some independents running opposed in this year's MSA election say the lack of party publicity will not affect their campaign. First-year law student Glen Smith said he is not worried about running independently because, "students do not vote straight ticket for MSA elections, they vote for who they know." Smith is running independently because he would like MSA to refund Law School students' MSA fee, by having MSA adopt the funding of the free services the Law School provides such as unemployment benefits and family law clinic. MOST independents decided to run independently because they did not support the platform of any of the parties. However, some do not have new ideas for MSA, and have only their ability to be an effective worker and representative of their school to offer MSA. LSA junior Michael Sherman he does not want to be restricted to adhering to a party's platform when he may not fully agree with it. Engineering sophomore Aldas Kriauciunas said, "Parties are all the same, I want to be different." Bill Ammerman, a sophomore candidate for LSA, said none of the parties impresssed him enough for him to show his undivided support by running on their ticket. "A PARTY cannot make a person a good representative," said Ammerman who is running on the confidence that voters will know that he is "aware of the issues, speaks intelligently, hard working, reasonable, responsible, and capable of representing the average student of the school of LSA." Steve Cintron, a sophomore running for Engineering rep., says that he is running, independently because he supports stroger action on minority recruitment and retention than parties are proposing, and as a minority student he is committed to make these changes. THE ISSUES which the independent candidates are most concerned with are racism and refocusing MSA on campus issues. There are also independent candidates who view MSA with less commitment. Paul Kominsky, a freshmen engineering candidate, said he does not know the issues, has never attended an MSA meeting. The Daily did not contact second-year law student Karen Taylor who is also running independently, along with LSA juniors Ken Cohen and Frank Johnson. Independents running unopposed are architecture student Peter Larson and pharmacy student Timothy Cunniff. Law student Joseph Girardot, said he has dropped out of the election, but MSA will not take his name off the ballot. IN BRIEF Compiled from Associated Press reports Quotas may cost U.S. jobs WASHINGTON - Limits on Japanese car sales in the United. States have cost thousands of U.S. jobs and motivated Japanese car - makers to set up shop on American soil where they can make additional competitive inroads, a private economist said yesterday. Clifford Winston, a senior fellow with the Brookings Institution, said his study documents the counterproductive effects of trade restrict - ions in the auto industry and should serve as a warning to the Congress as it considers trade legislation. Winston concluded that with Japanese car sales in the United States limited by voluntary quotas, American automakers found they could safely boost prices and limit production without fear of being undercu1,' by their main rival. Study: acid lakes to increase WASHINGTON - A long-awaited study of acid rain predicts that about 300 lakes in the northeastern United States will become acidic in the next 50 years unless the pollutants that cause the problem are reduced. The unreleased study by Environmental Protection Agency scientists predicts that lakes in the Southeast will start becoming acidic in that, period, but there is what one official called a "nil" chance that lakes in. the West will be hurt because of low emissions of the pollutants in. question. If the study's prediction is borne out, it would mean almost a doubling of the number of acidic lakes in the Northeast. The Reagan administration has resisted urgings from environ - mentalists, Northeastern states, and the Canadian government for furthe. emissions controls, arguing there is no evidence that any significan new damage is occurring. New trade law to be proposed DETROIT - U.S. Rep. John Dingell said yesterday he's confident Congress will approve legislation to stop unfair trading practices by foreign nations, with or without President Reagan's concurrence. "I think (prospects) are really very good," the Michigan Democrat said at a news conference before addressing the Economic Club of Detroit. "We anticipate the president, despite speeches or comments to the contrary, will either sign it or have his veto overridden." The proposed law would "level out the playing field" in international trade by forcing the Japanese and other trading partners to allow U.S. companies entry into their markets in return for export rights to the United States, Dingell said. Panel OKs anti-balding drug WASHINGTON - A government advisory panel yesterday recommended approval of the first drug shown to make hair grow on bald men, but with the provision that doctors be instructed to tell their patients not to expect miracles. The panel of outside experts also told the Food and Drug Administration it expects the agency to closely monitor advertising of the product to make sure the manufacturer, Upjohn Co., does not over - state what the hair grower can be expected to do. C. C. Evans, the physician who heads the FDA's dermatology sec - tions, said he expects the minoxidil drug to be approved in a few months. To be effective, the drug must be taken indefinitely. If discontinued, the hair it has stimulated to grow falls out. Minoxidil has been used in tablet form for about 20 years as a treatment for high blood pressure, and the side effect of hair growth was noted in'some patients. EXTRAS Eighth annual Slug Fest introduces wormy cuisine GUERNEVILLE, Calif (AP) - Participants in the eighth annual: Slug Fest don't need strong jaws so much as strong stomachs. The event Sunday included slug-eating contests, slug races and the; sampling of gourmet dishes prepared with the slimy creature, including Szechwan Slug and Strawberry Almond Slug Shortcake. To wash it all down, there were vodka martinis with a twist of slug. Sebastopol Councilwoman Anne Magnie drew loud chants of "Eat It!" when she hesitated on the "Slug-ka-bob," skewered slug with bits of fruit and vegetables. Municipal Court Judge Mark Tansil allowed that he actually likes slugs. "I'm into cruel and unusual punishment," he said. Michaelsen, one of the judges for the festival at the Guernewood; Lodge, said that no matter wat cooks do to them, slugs "are slimy creatures and they feel that way going down your throat."
