"If a permanent facility is not secured by April, we'll have the same problem." In September, the day shelter for the homeless on Division Street closed when Great Lakes Federal Savings refused to renew the Shelter Association's lease. Most councilmembers agreed that there was a definite need for some sort of day shelter in the winter. "The city does not have enough funds to build a permanent shelter," said Mayor Gerald Jernigan, adding that this is just a temporary solution. Food airlifts needed to save Ethiopians ADDIS ABABA, Ethiopia (AP) - Emergency airlifts of food are the only hope for tens of thousands of drought victims in northern Ethiopia whose relief pipeline has been disrupted by rebel attacks, the chief of U.N. relief efforts said yesterday. "We had hoped to avoid the colossal expense of an airlift, but most relief agencies agree that an immediate airlift is needed," Michael Priestly said in an interview. He is in charge of the United Nation's relief program in Ethiopia. Priestly said he hoped airlifts could begin in the next couple o f weeks to Tigray province, where 75 percent of the crop has failed and 1 million people face starvation. In neighboring Eritrea, there is a total crop loss and another 1 million people are at risk. Attacks on truck convoys by rebels in Eritrea have prompted the government to close intermittenly the main road to Tigray, choking off supplies. Eritrea still is able to get food from the province's Red Sea port of Massawa. Trucks, already scarce in the north, were destroyed by the dozens in the attacks, including 23 U.N.- flagged trucks. Normally this would be the height of the harvest in Ethiopia. But fields stand plowed and unplanted in some areas because the rains failed in June. In other areas, too little rain produced stunted crops of wheat and sorghum. Livestock now graze on food intended for people. Farmers and relief officials say the drought and food situation is worse than a 1984 drought which was followed the next year by a famine that killed 1 million Ethiopians. Marxist Ethiopia is Africa's most mountainous country. Getting food to the mostly rural population is tough under the best conditions, and the convoy attacks make it tougher. IN BRIEF Compiled from Associated Press reports officials work to cut deficit WASHINGTON - White House and congressional negotiators began a final push for a deficit-reduction agreement by Friday's dead- line, yesterday, while groups started mobilizing against any cuts in Social Security. "We're about a week and $2 billion short, give or take," said Sen. Bob Packwood of Oregon, senior Republican on the Senate Finance Committee. The negotiators, seeking to find the spending cuts and tax increases to satisfy the requirements of the Gramm-Rudman law, continued to discuss delaying or limiting cost-of-living increases in benefits includ- ing Social Security to close their gap. Some lawmakers said privately those costs had to be controlled if their plan to reduce deficits by $75 billion to $80 billion over the next two years was to have credibility. Summit hinges on agreement WASHINGTON - The United States and the Soviet Union will be faced with a "series of choices" including postponement of the sched- uled summit meeting if a treaty to ban intermediate-range nuclear mis- siles is not ready to be signed by the end of the month, a State Depart- ment official said yesterday. With Soviet leader Mikhail Gorbachev due to arrive here Dec. 7, four treaty issues are not settled. These include safeguards against So- viet cheating as well as a Soviet proposal to follow the accord with ne- gotiations apparently designed to impose restrictions on U.S. jet planes in Europe. Chief U.S. negotiator Max Kampelman is discussing these sticking points in Geneva with Soviet Deputy Foreign Minister Yuli Vorontsov. If the remaining issues are resolved, it will take the U.S. and Soviet negotiators about another week to prepare and agree on treaty language. Denver crash black boxes found DENVER - Flight recorders pulled from the twisted remains of a Continental Airlines DC-9 were flown to Washington yesterday to de- termine what caused the jet to crash during a snowstorm killing 26 people and injuring 56. The twin-engine plane was taken off at Stapleton International Air- port Sunday afternoon when it flipped upside down.and broke into three pieces as it slid down the runway three-quarters of a mile. At least 10 survivors remained hospitalized in critical condition yesterday. It could be months before the cause of the crash is determined, au- thorities said. It was the deadliest crash in the 58-year history of the airport. Air disaster hearings begin ROMULUS - Wing flaps on a Northwest Airlines plane that crashed, killing 156 people, were in the proper takeoff position, but the jet took longer to get off the ground than expected, a witness testified yesterday as hearings into the crash opened. A federal investigator, however, said evidence compiled in the na- tion's second-deadliest air disaster indicates the flaps were not extended in preparation for takeoff. - The conflicting testimony came on the first day of hearings by the National Transportation Safety Board into the Aug. 16 crash of Flight 255. The only survivor was Cecilia Cichan, whose parents and brother were among those killed. The hearing is scheduled to continue through the week, but the NTSB isn't expected to issue a report for months. EXTRAS Workshop teaches d (Continued from Page 1) with a weapon.

He said the committee will reconvene after all of the members have reviewed the University's document and materials presented by the legislators. Committee members do not expect to resolve the conflict before the December deadline established by the state legislature. "We're probably going to look at extending that deadline," said Thomas Baldini, an education adviser to Gov. James Blanchard. Baldini, appointed to represent the state's Office of Management and Budget, said it is still "much too early" to predict whether the discussions will affect this year's budget process. Last year, state officials denounced the University for denying acceptance to qualified residents because admitting out-of-state students, who pay substantially higher tuition rates, would boost revenue. Sen. William Sederburg (R- East Lansing) proposed an amendment to the budget that would cap out-of-state enrollment in all state schools. The limit was dropped, but the University's budget allocation increase was the lowest among state schools.eThe committee - established to prevent future controversy - includes Baker, Roach, Baldini, Sederburg, Sen. Joseph Schwarz (R-Battle Creek), Rep. Morris Hood (D-Detroit), and Rep. Robert Emerson (D-Flint). Council bans passing up' (Continued from Page 1) The University's Michigan Student Assembly passed a resolution last week supporting the City Council's resolution.

MSA Vice President Wendy Sharp, speaking at last night's council public hearing, denounced the physical and psychological aspects of "200 hands touching" a person who is passed up. "Education is important," Sharp said, in supporting the ordinance, "but it is not the answer in itself," The council's first resolution received initial opposition from council Republicans, who asserted that co-writers DeVarti and Councilmembers Jeff Epton (D-Third Ward) and Ann Marie Coleman (D- First Ward) did not contact University officials before writing it. But since then, councilmembers have met with several University officials, including Vice President for Government Relations Richard Kennedy, Assistant Athletic Director Will Perry, Sharp, and MSA President Ken Weine. The resolution passed unanimously two weeks ago. Associate Athletic Director Donald Lund said, however, that there have been no complaints to the University's First Aid Department about passing up all year, and that the resolution was unnecessary. Welcome Students! " DISTINCTIVE COLLEGIATE HAIRSTYLING for Men & Women " 6 HAl RSTYLISTS DASCOLA STYLISTS Opposite Jacobson's Maple Village 868-9329 761-2733 Commercial spinoffs irk ROCK DETROIT - Advertisers are cheapening the baby boom generation's music by turning some classics into jingles and lifting other songs in their entirety, a self-described defender of rock'n'roll said Sunday. Support for ROCK (Rockers Opposing Cheap Knockoffs) is burgeoning among people in their 30's and 40's, Walt Sorg declared during a telephone interview from his home in Williamston. Commercial adaptations of popular music have been around for 40 years, Sorg said. But he said he was provoked into action only recently. "I think it was 'Big Mac Tonight' for McDonald's. That was the one that did it," Sorg said of the fast food chain's recent revamping of the Bobby Darin hit, "Mac the Knife." "Buddy Holly can't fight back when Buick turns 'Oh Boy!' into 'Oh Buick!' or Toyota changes his lyric from 'It's so easy to fall in love' to 'It's so easy to own Tercel,"' the ROCK manifesto said. "Marvin Gaye must turn in his grave every time animated f: tits use his 'I Heard it Through the Grapevine' to huckster their wrinkled offspring," he said. If you see news happen, call 76-DAILY.
