Cole- man said those present at the meet- ing favored the proposal. But such a law, if passed, has complications. City Attorney Bruce Laidlaw said any crowd member who participates in the process can be ar- rested immediately - including people who touch victims while they are passed over them. Iu w may Robert Conn, Ann Arbor police captain in charge of special services, said the enforcement procedure will be a matter of "who touched who first? By the time the police respond to it, it could be 70 rows away." He said the proposed law is "demeaning" to the University's "adult, responsible" student body but, "We enforce laws that are passed, and we're not going in there understaffed." Most officials agree that passing up is dangerous and should be stopped, but the the proposed ordi- nance, they feel, is not the right ap- proach. Regulating the activity by law runs the risk of having students defy the law, so the city should wait, J an 'passing up' for students to mobilize against the poster campaign in residence halls act, officials have said. and wrote editorials in The Daily Kennedy said the proposal was a until 1981, when passing up died "pretty good idea.

But during the pro- posal's public hearing a month ago, 38 people debated its merits, and 22 of them spoke against the proposed resolution. Tonight, DeVarti and Coun- cilmember Jerry Schleicher (R- Fourth Ward) will submit amended proposals. DeVarti's proposal, softer than his original, would restrict gun stores from residential neighbor- hoods and the downtown area. Schleicher's proposal would also restrict gun stores from residential areas, but it would allow them to function in a 15-block downtown area between Liberty, Catherine, Ashley, and the University campus. IN BRIEF Compiled from Associated Press reports Official foresees arms accord WASHINGTON - National security adviser Frank Carlucci said yesterday that a U.S.-Soviet accord on intermediate-range nuclear missiles is "98 percent of the way there" and predicted Senate ratification. However, a leading Senate Democrat warned that the superpower pact could be doomed if conservative Republicans tamper with it by attaching amendments on issues like the Soviet occupation of Afghanistan. "I do think that there could be problems," said Sen. Alan Cranston (D- Calif.), the Senate Democratic whip who is also a member of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee and the Select Committee on Intelligence. Sen. Richard Lugar, a leading Republican and member of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, also predicted some tough sailing in the Senate for an INF treaty. Trading sex for drugs causes gonorrhea increase in Detroit DETROIT - Health officials here are blaming the nation's worst outbreak of a penicillin-resistant strain of gonorrhea on the practice of women trading sex for drugs at "crack" cocaine houses. Detroit had 1,448 reported cases of penicillin-resistant gonorrhea this year through Sept. 20, up from only 122 in the same period of 1986, the Detroit Free Press reported in Sunday's editions. Among the nation's major cities, the newspaper said only New York had more cases of the disease in the first nine months of 1987 - 4,239. But, New York has 7.1 million residents, making its rate for the disease 42 percent of that for Detroit, with 1.1 million people. New York had 4,382 cases in the same peiod of 1986. French arms went to Iran PARIS - A scandal that some reporters are calling the French Irangate is brewing over the sale of munitions to Iran by a French arms manufacturer with the alleged complicity of high Defense Ministry officials. According to articles published over the weekend in the local press, an investigating magistrate in Paris is seeking to have a Defense Ministry report on the sales declassified so charges can be brought against several people. What is known as the "Luchaire Affair" involves the clandestine delivery of 450,000 artillery shells to Iran between 1983 and 1986 under the Socialist government of Premier Laurent Fabius. Reports in two weekly newsmagazines implicate high-ranking officials in the office of former Defense Minister Charles Hernu and say that even President Francois Mitterrand knew about the sales, which contravened a government embargo on shipments to Iran. Auditors examine the Blues DETROIT - Auditors, including the state Attorney General's office, are examining the books of Blue Cross and Blue Shield of Michigan, probing allegations of perks for executives and nepotism, officials said. The state's largest health insurer is being audited by its own board of directors, the office of Attorney General Frank Kelley, and Insurance Commissioner Herman Coleman, The Detroit News reported in yesterday's editions. State Sen. William Sederburg (R-Est Lansing) said the Legislature will want its own review of the insurer's books after the investigations end. The nonprofit company, which does $3.9 billion in business annually, is asking the state to approve a rate increase, claiming it lost $35.6 million in 1986. EXTRAS Daily Libels smash Review Elbel Field became a battleground yesterday as The Daily Libels football team defeated the Michigan Review gridders 14-0 on the strength of two touchdown receptions by Daily Opinion staffer Jeffrey Rutherford, an LSA junior. Daily columnist Fat Al spearheaded the Libel's 'iron curtain' defense by dropping several Review staffers into the mud. "We totally dominated, we kicked some conservative ass," added Daily Weekend Magazine Co-Editor and Linebacker Rebecca "Bubba" Blumenstein, an LSA junior. Fat Al added, "We had time to knock 'em down, spit on the ground, turn around twice, and then get the quarterback." Lineperson Mark Weisbrot, an Opinion staffer and Rackham graduate student, summed up the afternoon's significance, saying, "This one's for abject materialism." The Libels agreed they are now ready to take on the College Republicans. -Peter Mooney If you see news happen, call 76-DAILY.
