Page 2 -The Michigan Daily--Wednesday, January 20, 1988 The Wolfman howls L112~ITOI' (OO-MUdfrom Page 1) 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 small roadhouse. He went legendary guitarist Emily Re but she had an argument w club's manager and refused form; Wolfe played instead. "The kid can play," MCA ing artist Kenny Blake sai smooth pated saxophonist -o 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 he could hang." Wolfe has been actively se in Spain for American distribution of Ubifla's azz, his upcoming album, as well as shop- ome in ping around a solo demo tape in er holi- search of his own recording contract. some of His solo recording highlights his ans at a musical diversity, featuring Celtic to see jigs, traditional gospel blues, origi- ,mmler, nal jazz and country compositions, vith the and even a James Taylor song rear- to per- ranged to feature fife and drums. He has no plans to return to the United record- States until he has a "good reason d. The to." was im- "Hopefully, this summer will filiarity mean a lot of shows, so I'm playing his way it out through the summer at least didn't unless the demo tape really flies," ,e were Wolfe said. "A lot of people are up and banging on the front door (of the music business). I hope to slide in arching the back."

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."
