Sen. Carl Levin of Michigan carries a heavy load of
indignation after a week of hearings into the tangled
web of alleged influence peddling linking a Bronx
defense contractor, Wedtech Corp., and federal officials.
The style of the rumpled Democrat from Detroit,
who peers at the world over Ben Franklin glasses, has
been compared to that of a tough city prosecutor.
Levin at 53 revels in the tough-guy image, but
prefers to depict himself less militantly as the honest
city councilman come to Washington to purge the
bureaucracy of waste, shady dealing, misplaced purpose
and fuzzification.
That last word, a coinage of Levin's staff, is key to
understanding what makes Levin run.
In an interview, the Harvard law graduate condemned

The nine-member delegation will
stop in Costa Rica, Guatemala,
Honduras, and El Salvador, as well
as Nicaragua on a week-long trip in
November.
Koch is seeking a middle-ground
solution to what he called the "most
important political issue in the
Western Hemisphere."
"The Nicaragua question is vital
to America's future," he said. "The
Soviet Union is sending i n
substantial military assistance, but I
don't think war is the answer. Nei-
ther is acquiesence or surrender."
Koch parenthetically criticized
Reagan's recent denouncement of the
Arias plan as "unbelievable." In a
recent interview, Reagan said the
plan was fatally flawed.

packed house with his wit, Koch
responded to questions on anti-
semitism, the problems of Pales-
tinians on the West Bank in Israel,
and Israel's relations with apartheid
South Africa.
Koch also reasserted his "urban
agenda" for the upcoming presi-

dential election, which includes
fighting rampant drug use, dealing
with the AIDS crisis, and developing
"compassionate and common sense
solutions to the struggle of the
homeless."
The forum on Jewish political
issues continues today with a
colloquium on Jewish politics.

An Information Desk will be staffed
in the North Lobby of the
Graduate Library for the
first five days of classes
(Sept. 10-11, 14-16)
from 10:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m.
Tours of the Library will extend from
September 14-25 at 11:00 a.m., 1:00 p.m.,
and 3:00 p.m. each weekday.
Sign-up for all tours will be at the
Circulation Desk in the North Lobby

When it's three
o'clock in the
morning and
you're nearly
done with your term paper,
the last thing you want to
see on the screen is "fatal
disk error."
That's why so many
people insist on Sony.
One reason is that
Sony invented the 3.5F disk
drive as well as the 3.5"
floppy diskette.
Another reason Sony
floppies are so popular on
campus is their relentless

reliability. And that goes
for our 5.25" floppies, too.
After all, when it
comes to magnetic media,
nobody's ahead of Sony.
We're a world leader in

audio, video and computer
magnetic media.
The thing to remem-
ber about magnetic media
in computers is that almost
any input error can be
corrected, but lost data
is forever.
So, instead of learning
your lesson the hard way,
trust the diskettes that set
the standard for the others
to follow.
Use the Sony.
SONY
THE ONE AND ONLY.
