ago, brought him into the band
where he has continued to merge
musical traditions.
"It works to my advantage know-
ing a lot of American music and
knowing how to apply different
rhythmic and harmonic ideas," said
Wolfe. "I bring the ideas and they
decide if it's bastardizing the tradi-
tion - which usually it isn't. I def-
initely bring a touch of rock and roll
to Northern Spanish music."
Wolfe has continued to cover a
wide range of musical traditions.
Despite his success with Ubifia, he
continues to play the pubs with both
a folk trio, consisting of himself on
guitar, and Ubifia's accordian and
gaita (bagpipe) players, and a blues
duo with a female Venezualan
singer.
Nor has he abandoned ja
first musical love. While h
Pittsburgh for the Decembe
days, Wolfe performed withs
the city's finest jazz musicia

form; Wolfe played instead.

pressed with Wolfe's fam
with his guitar. "He knows t
aroundnhis instrument. He
know any of the tunes wi
playing but he just picked it

Wolfe has been actively se
in Spain
for American distribution of Ubifla's

ome in ping around a solo demo tape in

MSA committee chair
loses re-election bid
(hoted from Page 1)
versity Council - the committee
organized to draft a code.
The committee labored three
months before recommending a slate
of six names to Vice Provost
Charles Moody's office last term,
from which three students were se-
lected for the minority affairs com-
mittee in mid-December.
"Minority affairs are so important
and it really hurts when students are
not on these committees," said
Wendy Sharp, MSA vice president
and LSA senior. "I was upset that
people weren't named sooner."
Sharp said she was embarrassed
last term when Vice President for
Academic Affairs James Duderstadt
and former President Harold Shapiro
approached her following regents'
meetings and told her they were
anxious to have student representa-
tion on the minority committees.
Davis said the delay stemmed
from the need for a slate of six
names. In most cases, only individ-
ual nominations are required, he said.
But Sharp maintained that,
"there's so many people - there
must be six students who want to be
on those committees."
Corey Dolgan, graduate student in
American Studies, was elected gov-
ernance committee chair last week.
"The more people that apply (for
committees) the easier it is for stu-
dent representation," he said. "It's
hard to have student empowerment
when we're not filling positions.
And there's no reason why we
shouldn't be able to do it."
Davis said students were chosen
for the committees based on their
knowledge of the issues, commit-
ment, and willingness to advocate
"student positions."
Dolgan added, "People who get
involved have a tendency to be pro-
gressive, but its not a prerequisite."
He said committee candidates repre-
sent the student body in the same
way that the assembly represents the
student body, but acknowledged
problems in reflecting the attitudes
of all students - or in even know-
ing them.
IN BRIEF
Compiled from Associated Press reports
Court rejects North's bid to
block Iran-Contra inquiry
WASHINGTON - Marine Lt. Col. Oliver North failed yesterday in a
bid to have the Supreme Court block a criminal investigation into his
role in the Iran-Contra affair.
The justices, without comment, refused to disturb a ruling that Attor-
ney General Edwin Meese properly delegated authority to independent
counsel Lawrence Walsh to conduct the inquiry.
The high-court order clears the way for Walsh to seek indictments
against North and other key participants in a scheme to divert the proceeds
of secret U.S. arms sales to Iran to the Nicaraguan Contra rebels.
Indictments are possible in the coming weeks against North, former
national security adviser John Poindexter, retired Air Force Maj. Gen.
Richard Secord and Secord's business partner, Albert Hakim.
Israeli official speaks on riots
JERUSALEM - Defense Minister, Yitzhak Rabin confronted stone-
throwing Palestinians in a West Bank refugee camp yesterday and said the
army will use beatings rather than bullets to quell riots that began -six
weeks ago.
He also said Israel would bar foreign countries or private groups from
shipping food to Palestinian refugee camps in the occupied territories.
United Nations officials say some camps are short of food because of cur-
fews.
Talking to reporters and later to Israel Television, Rabin said troops
were under orders to use "force, power and blows" to put down violent
demonstrations.
Elaborating on the policy to an Israel TV reporter, he said soldiers
would "prevent them (demonstrations) wih force, not fire," and promised
the army would leave as soon as order was restored.
Colider hearings to start soon
WASHINGTON - Michigan and six other states will be considered as
hosts of the multi-billion-dollar superconducting super collider project and
hearings will be held at Michigan's Ingham County site, the Energy De-
partment said yesterday.
The agency accepted almost without change a selection of semi-final-
ists announced in December by a task force charged with pruning the list
of 35 candidates for the research center, which would study the high-speed
impact of sub-atomic particles in an effort to advance the knowledge of
physics.
Besides Michigan, the states were Arizona, Colorado, Illinois, North
Carolina, Tennessee and Texas. New York was withdrawn from the list
at the request of state political leaders.
Couple emigrates to Moscow
MOSCOW - An American couple who came to Moscow as tourists
have been granted political asylum after choosing life in the Soviet Union
as an "alternative to capitalism," an official said yesterday.
Foreign Ministry spokesperson Gennady Gerasimov identified the
Americans as Theodore Branch and Cheryl Branch and said they were
"experts in the field of mass communications" from Pennsylvania.
Branch's father said his son was "stupid" for -deciding to live in the
Soviet Union because "there are so many millions wanting to get out of
there. Why would he want to go over there?"
Branch said his son left for Moscow against his advice and the advice
of others.
He said his son had met a Soviet woman in the United States who
wanted to go back to her homeland.
EXTRAS
Couple caught in new jail,
cop can't find correct key
KALISPELL, Mont. - Northwest Montana Fair Manager Bob
Cartwright and his wife had the dubious and unexpected honor of being
the first people to be locked up in the new county jail.
And not just anywhere in the jail, but in its special padded cell.
As Cartwright and his wife, Marilyn toured the new Flathead County
Justice Center during the grand opening last week, they accidently got
locked in.
Cartwright estimated he and his wife spent about 15 minutes in the
small cell while Undersheriff Gary Franklin tried to unlock it.
"In that cell it may have seemed like 15 minutes," Franklin said,
suggesting it was probably less than five.
Franklin, still somewhat unfamiliar with the new jail, couldn't
immediately find the right key. In the meantime, Cartwright tried to keep
his wife entertained.
"I had to keep trying to be funny," said Cartwright. "That was hard for
even me to do."
