Project Continued from Page 1 themselves, such as painting and decorating the interior. The theme of the restaurant is New Orleans French Quarter, and the two partners meticulously planned the food and decor to give the restaurant the feel of a small Euro- pean cafe. Featured items on the menu include the Cafe Au Lait, which is chicory coffee cut with milk, and the Beignet, a kind of square French doughnut served hot and covered with powdered sugar. "We were looking to offer a ser- vice that no one else does," said Ivanko, "a way to compete with all the other restaurants in Ann Arbor." Ivanko's class partner supported the accomplishment: "It's fantastic. I wish him all the luck," said Salzberg, a senior in the Business School. She said she decided to try to work her way up the corporate ladder after graduation, instead of joining Ivanko and Kaplan in the I restaurant. "He is interested in be- coming an entrepreneur; I'm not at this point of my life," she said. If the first six months of opera- tion go well, Kaplan is thinking about expanding The French Market Cafe to another location closer to central campus. But for now he is going to concentrate his efforts on this one.

Students enjoy internships in the outdoors v v By ERIC LEMONT While many students had to wear suits and ties to their internships last summer, Monica Tomosey spent her summer roaming the forests of Western Oregon in search of spotted owls - by hooting for them. "The hooting sounds even better than a tape of } a spotted owl," said Tomosey, a graduate student in the School of Natural Resources. She helped the Bureau of Land Management collect data on the population size and reproductive success of the owls by finding and reporting on the condi- tion of their nests. TOMOSEY was one of more than 1,000 students selected by the Resource Assistant pro- gram last summer to help manage and conserve the nation's parks, public lands, and natural re- sources. The program is sponsored by the educa- tional, non-profit Student Conservation Associa- tion. The year-round internships, located in over 35 states, are strictly voluntary. "When you say the word 'voluntary,' people almost automatically turn themselves off," said Lara Hill, a natural resources junior and SCA's campus field recruiter. WHILE THE lack of money deters some people, Hill said, the program is "not a free vacation (and) needs really well-motivated people who can and like to work under minimal supervision." This sometimes entails sleeping in tents or having only sporadic contact with staff members. Although Tomosey said she occasionally felt the need to see someone her own age, she didn't find the distance from home depressing. "It was exciting being in the middle of nowhere," she said. But geographic and social isolation are not part of every student's experience. After a day of trapping snowshoe hares for the U.S Fish and Wildlife Department - in order to estimate their population size and to place regulations on hunt- ing - Hill joined students her own age in a newly-furnished bunkhouse. George Norris, a graduate in Natural Re- sources and Environmental Policy, chose Alaska because he has "always had a great deal of fasci- nation for regions that are environmentally intact with predators still there." ALASKA, because of its "far away mys- tique," has become the most popular destination among Resource Assistants, Hill said. As a park ranger, Norris said he found leading hikes and giving slide presentations rewarding because it was something he really cared about. Abortions Continued from Page 1 Right to Life, warring their own campaign, is raising money for ad- vertising and speakers and is also working on clarifying the wording of the ballot referendum, said Rae Ann 1 Houbeck, chair of the Washtenaw County Right to Life. Houbeck said she was disap- pointed with Kelley's decision, but said she is hopeful for the November vote. "Right to Life has strong sup- port in the state of Michigan," she said. Michigan is one of 14 states that uses taxpayer money to finance abortions for the poor. In 1986, the most recent year for which a final tally is available, Michigan paid about $5.8 million for 18,600 abor- tions. The measure to ban the state funding was put before the Legisla- ture last year by the anti-abortion drive. It easily passed both cham- bers, escaping a gubernatorial veto because it was initiated by the peo- ple. - The Associated Press con- tributed to this report.

"My understanding of the University is that the way they (administration) indicate their sup- port for different movements... is through financial allocations," Ed- wards said after the rally. But University Director of Coun- seling Services Harold Korn said yesterday that the office did receive a budget increase, although it was not as large as the advocates wanted. He said he was not at liberty to disclose the amount of the increase. FUNDING for the office is provided through the University Of- fice of Student Services. University Vice President for Student Services Henry Johnson was out of town yesterday and could not be reached for comment. Edwards also praised the students present for attending. "Those of you out here listening to me are taking the risk that you might be identified as a lesbian or gay male... that takes guts," she said. But speakers blamed yesterday's turnout, lower than that at gay rights rallies in previous years, on yester- day's rain and unseasonable cold. Jim Toy, the University's gay male advocate, said after the rally, "I'm glad as many as came as did, given the weather." But one unidentified participant called the crowd size "depressing." THE RALLY was part of Les- bian and Gay Awareness Week, sponsored by the Lesbian and Gay Rights Organizing Committee. LaGROC leader and LSA senior Carol Wayman also addressed the rally, and called for the defeat of Re- gent Deane Baker (R-Ann Arbor), if he runs for re-election next year. Baker, an outspoken opponent of the bylaw change, angered gay and les- bian activists earlier this year by calling for an investigation into al- leged homosexual activity in the Mason Hall men's room. Baker said yesterday he believes current University policies are suffi- cient to protect gays from harass- ment. HE ALSO denied Wayman's charge that he had referred to gays and lesbians as "child molesters."~ The accusations stem from state- ments he reportedly made at a March, 1984 regents' meeting, that "a homosexual should not be em- ployed in a summer camp dealing with small children." 'Those of you out here listening to me are taking the risk that you might be identified as a lesbian or gay male... that takes guts.' - Billie Edwards, coordi- nator of 'U' Lesbian and Gay Male Program Office. Toy, who also spoke at the rally, added that the gay rights movement has made progress in the past two decades - including the establish- ment of the advocate's office - but said the homosexual community must continue to pressure for change. "If you want a piece of the pie and they won't give it to you... you take it," said Toy, who then led the crowd in chanting, "We're going to take it" THE DAILY CLASSIFIEDS ARE A GREAT WAY TO GET FAST RESULTS CALL 764-0557 *.
