4 Page 2 - The Michigan Daily - Friday, October 7, 1988 Salvadoran speaks at 'U' BY PATRICK STAIGER The United States sends $2 mil- lion dollars every day to the gov- ,rnment of El Salvador. a' Much of that money is used to protect the government from its own .people, said Mercedes Selgado, a representative from the Farabundo -Marti National Liberation Front, El Salvador's guerilla army. The FMLN has been at war with the government for eight years. Selgado will be in Ann Arbor tonight to speak about the current situation in El Salvador and the role ,the U.S. plays in the country. Her talk is sponsored by the Latin ,American Solidarity Committee and i MSA welcomes controversial speaker is part of a tour of New England and the Midwest. The Michigan Student Assembly passed a resolution Tues- day welcoming Selgado. "The U.S. has spent more than $3 billion in my country, and much of that has gone towards killing civilians," Selgado said Wednesday in a phone interview from Boston. But many in the U.S., including the Reagan administration, consider the FMLN terrorists and condemn their use of violence against the government. Jeff Paige, a sociologist at the University who recently visited El Salvador, said the word 'terrorist' does not apply to the FMLN because they have the support of a large number of people in El Salvador, and could not exist without that support. "I think the FMLN very likely represents the majority opinion if there was a free election in El Sal- vador," Paige said. Selgado said it is difficult for North Americans to understand why the war exists in El Salvador because so little is explained in the U.S. press. "The FMLN does not want to use violence - we are forced to use use violence," Selgado said. "Our goal is self-determination for the Salvadoran people to have a real democratic government without intervention from foreign countries."' Selgado will speak tonight at 7:30 p.m. at 2413 Mason Hall. , Bars Continued from Page 1 CHARGES against the three bars were filed by city police, said Lt. Richard Cygan, head of the special investigation department of the Ann Arbor police. He added that charges most likely stemmed from undercover investigations conducted from January to May this year. In an undercover operation in May, 22 separate drinking estab- lishments in Ann Arbor were cited for violations of the liquor control laws, and 20 individuals were ar- "rested for serving to minors, Cygan said. Since only two MLCC officials hear all the cases in Michigan, Cy- gan said it is "not unusual" for charges to be brought before a MLCC judge five or six months af- ter the original incident. Cygan denied that officials were engaged in a crackdown of campus- area bars, and said he didn't know why all three bars were charged within a three-day period. The last drinking establishment to have its license suspended was Bennigan's near the Briarwood Mall, Cygan said. In that incident, during the spring of 1986, an employee was charged with selling drugs while working at the restaurant. THOUGH Bennigan's was the last bar to receive a suspension, about six liquor stores have been cited for liquor violations in the past two years, according to Cygan. He said undercover investigations are conducted by sending minors into bars and seeing if they can get served. The results of the investiga- tions are then sent to the Liquor Control Commission, and the cases are heard by hearing officers em- ployed by the commission. Individuals charged with serving alcohol to minors can be tried in criminal court, he said, but bars and other establishments must be tried in civil court through the MLCC. Event Continued from Page 1 expense, the lack of specifics in his "diversity plan," and that only peo- ple with invitations could enter the ceremony. IN FACT, Michigan Student Assembly President Michael Phillips, representing the student body, carried a "Duderstadt is illegal" poster onto the stage. Rackham Student Government President Tracy Ore carried a sign protesting the University's new protest policies. During his speech, Phillips asked Duderstadt for "no false promises" in dealing with racism, sexism, and homophobia - problems he said were institutionalized on campus. "We as students demand that you remove the walls of racism built in front of Black, Asian, and Native American students," Phillips said. "(Students) are dedicated to equality, and we ask that the 11th president of the University join us to build a multi-cultural University which is equal for all." But for the most part, it was all pomp and circumstance in Hill Auditorium, with the University's Symphony Band, Organist, and Men's Glee Club providing the mu- sic while the dignitaries filed in. RACKHAM DEAN John D'Arms, garbed in a red robe and black cap, ran the ceremonies, intro- ducing speakers Sudarkasa, Michigan State University President John DiBaggio, University History Prof. Sidney Fine, Phillips, and others. Several speakers, such as Engi- neering Dean Charles Vest, chided Duderstadt's reputation as a fast- paced worker. "Having gotten smallcr but better, are we now to get faster and faster?" Vest asked. "Are we to pace the floor, pace the race, or simply become pace makers? Will we arrive at the second millennium before the year 2000?" Spectators seemed to enjoy the invitation-only event. LSA senior Lloyd Sarrel said he was impressed by the "pomp and circumstance," and criticized the protesters outside. "It amazes me that something as presti- gious as this can't go on without interruption," he said. Re"d and We Vaiby CCa6Lied6 IN BRIEF Compiled from Associated Press and staff reports Gov. pushes super collider WASHINGTON - Gov. James Blanchard tried to convince Energy Secretary John Herrington yesterday the state has the top site for the 4.4 billion superconducting super collider. This week, delegations from the seven states contending for the super collider met with Herrington. The site will be chosen within 45 days. Michigan's proposed site for the physics research laboratory is in Stockbridge, a farm town midway between Lansing and Ann Arbor. Blanchard said the physicists' top priorities - extensive computer facilities, employment opportunities for spouses and high quality public education - were hallmarks of the Stockbridge site. Physicists plan to use the super collider to smash protons into each other, which will allow the testing of theories of matter and energy. Jury decides Brawley lied POUGHKEEPSIE, N.Y. - The grand jury in the Tawana Brawley case concluded in a report released yesterday that the black teenager apparently concocted her story of abduction and rape by a gang of white men. The jury also found nothing to suggest a cover-up by law enforcement officials. The report cited no evidence of sexual assault, and suggested that the girl herself was responsible for the feces-smeared condition in which she was found after a four day disappearance. The New York Times reported last month that the grand jury had overwhelming evidence the former Wappingers Falls resident fabricated her story of racial assault, perhaps to avoid punishment for late nights out. Miss Brawley refused to answer reporters questions about her claim. Officials slash SDI costs WASHINGTON - In what one official acknowledged was "a startling change," the Defense Department said yesterday it has slashed the cost of the first phase of a Star Wars defensive shield from $115 billion to $69 billion, and the system could be available within a decade. But Sen. Sam Nunn, D-Ga., chairperson of the Senate Armed Services Committee, said the figures should be viewed with "some skepticisim" because the cost of weapons programs often goes down while they are in the planning stages and then rises when production starts. The new figures arise from a restructuring of the Strategic Defense Initiative, the formal name of President Reagan's.5-year-old program to develop a high-tech shield against attack by Soviet nuclear missiles. Bill to fight medical waste dumping passes in Congress WASHINGTON - The House of Representatives, alarmed by used syringes and vials of AIDS-infected blood washing up on shorelines, joined the Senate yesterday in approving legislation to combat the dumping of medical waste. The bill requires the Environmental Protection Agency set up a system to track infectious or dangerous trash from hospitals, labs, and clinics to its disposal. In response to this summer's much-publicized washups of medical trash along the Atlantic Coast, Lake Erie, and Lake Michigan, the bill implements tracking in several states including Michigan. The new measure stipulates that medical waste such as blood, hypodermic needles, scalpels, and surgical and laboratory waste that has been in contact with infectious agents be segregated from other medical waste. The legislation does not set any standards for actual disposal. EXTRAS Minister weds ceremony with unconventionality NORTH MUSKEGON - The Rev. Ben Jansen loves weddings so much, he's performed them at bowling alleys, skateboard ramps, rodeos, construction sites, parking ramps - even on the ice at hockey arenas. "I started advertising for weddings out of necessity. I had a job driving a truck and realized I needed to spend more time with the church but I needed to initiate some income," Jansen said. It wasn't long before Jansen began getting requests from people who were turned down by other pastors in town beause the couple didn't want a church ceremony. He's only drawn the line once. "A couple called and asked if I would marry them in the buff," Jansen said. "I thought she said 'on the bus' and I said sure... I did the wedding, but we all had clothes on." 4 FANTASY ATTIC COSTUMES Your Complete Costume Shop OUTSTANDING RENTAL COSTUME COLLECTION A selection from our Halloween collection: 6 Chile Continued from Page 1 members handed in their resignations to allow Pinochet to appoint new ministers if he wanted.

An Equal Opportunity Employer With 99.6 percent of the votes counted, "no" votes against Pino- chet's continued rule totaled 54.7 percent, while "yes" votes totaled 43 percent, the Interior Ministry re- ported. The turnout was more than 7.2 million of the 7.4 million registered voters. In the business district , Pinchet's loss prompted a 16 percent average decline in stock values. "We expected this reaction, but I still have to say the percentage is considerable," said the market's public relations official, Fernando Concha. If Pinochet had won he would have assumed a new eight year term in March. He seized power from President Salvador Allende, a Marxist who won the country's last presi- dential election in 1970.
