He described the bill as "strengthening the family." "Minors are required to have parental consent to get their ears perced," Crawford said. "If minors can get medical service without parental consent, it would be ab- srd." But Bill Candler, Gov. James Blanchard's assistant chief of staff, said the Governor opposes any fur- ther restrictions on abortion, includ- ing the parental consent bill. Blanchard has proposed new leg- islation to restore Medicaid funding fer abortion in case of rape or incest, or'to protect the mental or physical health of the mother. However, pro-choice activists, like Planned Parenthood Executive lDirector Menin, oppose parental consent for several reasons. Menin said 65 percent of teenagers who wish to get an abor- tidn already have parental consent, anfd those who do not usually have a good reason. . In addition, 'Menin said, "It puts judges in the strange position of say- idj, 'You are too young to have an abortion and therefore you must be- ccme a parent."' The second bill would require fe- tus viability testing after 20 weeks of pregnancy and prohibit public finds, facilities, and employees to be used to perform abortions. Another proposed bill would pro- hibit the use of public funds for abortion counseling. Finally, a pro- posed constitutional amendment would prohibit all public employees ffom using their health benefits for abortions. 0 Ann Arbor-Washtenaw County IOW president Jan Ben Dor criti- cized the pending bills for restricting women's abortion rights. She said there is "a worrisome chance" for t*ese new bills to pass because the m4ajority of the state House and Spnate favor further abortion restric- tions.

MSU Continued from Page 1 the University of Michigan does not require resident advisers to check the age of students seen with alcohol in the residence halls. "I am not there to tell (the hall residents) how to live their lives," said University of Michigan Resident Adviser Dean Meyer, an engineering junior. "I don't want to be a bouncer." The MSU move has upset many students on the East Lansing cam- pus, said Susan Steinkle, executive director of Associated Students of MSU. "By changing the Residence Life staff to policemen, now they are enforcing the state law," she said. "If the RAs are only seen as enforcers, the students will probably be less likely to talk to them. Doors will stay closed. There will be less of a community. Some RAs didn't come back as a result. Even after meet- ings, they weren't listened to." MSU's new policy is only a short addition to larger policies that have been developing over the past 15 years, said Mary Haas, director of University Housing Programs at MSU. The new regulation comes under General Student Regulations, and states, "No student shall possess, consume, furnish, manufacture, sell, exchange or'otherwise distribute any alcoholic beverage except as permit- ted by state law and university ordi- nances." This regulation was paired with implementation guidelines created by University Housing Programs and Judicial Affairs for the residence hall staff. However, Steinkle criticized the new guidelines, saying they were created with little student input. - The Associated Press con- tributed to this report. HUGO Continued from Page 1 to go and moving others to hospitals inland to make room for emergency patients, officials said. With Hugo menacing off the coast, the sound of power saws and hammers reverberated throughout the historic district of Charleston. "I'm wondering whether this house is going to be here when we get back," area resident Cadawallader Jones said. The Navy moved ships out of the coastal harbors to ride out the storm at sea. Army bases in coastal states moved helicopters inland or into shelters. Officials at Pope Air Force Base in Fayetteville, N.C. ordered 12 to 14 C-130 transport planes to Arkansas to wait out the storm. In North Carolina, evacuations were ordered or recommended for six coastal counties, including barrier is- lands and areas within a half-mile of the Intercoastal Waterway. CONFUSED??

Blount County Circuit Judge W. Dale Young, ruling in favor of Mary Sue David over her estranged husband, Junior Lewis Davis, declared that their embryos were children, not property. "I'm thrilled. It's definitely what I wanted," Mrs. Davis told a news conference in Titusville, Fla., where she now lives. Davis said he would appeal in the state court system, and potentially beyond. "They are going to force me to become a father against my wishes," he said. Mrs. Davis said she would not try to get pregnant before January. "I'm waiting to see about the appeal, then hopefully after that try to have a child," she said. Bus accident kills at least 18 ALTON, Texas - A school bus, hit from behind by a delivery truck, plunged into a watery gravel pit yesterday, killing at least 18 youngsters and injuring 49 people, authorities said. Divers pulled several bodies from the 12 feet of water nearly covering the bus, which was carrying students to junior and senior high schools in a nearby city when it tumbled into the 40- to 45-foot hole, authorities said. Michael Cox, spokesperson for the Department of Public Safety, said it was the worst school bus accident in Texas history. The number of people aboard the bus was not immediately known. The bus can hold 70, authorities said. The bus driver and truck driver were being treated at hospitals, authorities said. "We're going crazy here," said Firefighter Ruben Ortiz. He added that ambulances were sent to an information center set up for parents. The par- ents "are very hysterical. They have really lost control, some of them." Survey: Keep surrogacy legal DETROIT - The federal government shouldn't intervene in surrogate motherhood contracts, according to the 1,211 adults polled nationwide, a Detroit News survey published yesterday reported. The survey, conducted by Washington-based Gordan S. Black Corp., found that 56 percent of the sample believed that the government should not regulate surrogate arrangements; 27 percent said surrogacy should be banned; 11 percent said it should be permitted but subject to government regulation; 2 percent said it should be otherwise regulated; and 4 percent didn't answer. The margin of error was 3 percentage points. A majority of respondents said surrogacy should be available to married couples or couples over 45. A minority said that the option should be available to unmarried couples, homosexuals or fertile couples who want to avoid natural pregnancy, the poll found. Activist calls 1989 'worst year ever' for civil rights LANSING - Recent Supreme Court decisions have shattered the drive for equality and it's up to Congress, the states and President Bush to re- store it, a civil rights leader said yesterday. "This year, 1989, will be remembered as the worst year ever for women and minorities before the United States Supreme Court," said Eleanor Holmes Norton, former chair of the U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission. Norton said that it is ironic, considering this year marked the 25th an- niversary of the Civil Rights Act and that prior to this year the high court had interpreted it broadly to help promote equality. Norton, a law professor at Georgetown University, said the conserva- tives that President Reagan appointed to the court went out of their way to gut affirmative action programs. EXTRAS US, Soviets to meet in Mars MARS, Pa. - It's official. The U.S. and Soviet astronauts are going to Mars, and the Martians can't wait to greet them. That's Mars, Pa. 16046. U.S.A. Earth. Soviet Cosmonaut Sergei Krikalev arrives in Mars on Monday, by jet- liner and car, for an eight-day visit to this community of about 1,800 humanoids about 25 miles north of Pittsburgh. Krikalev, a flight engineer, will be joined Wednesday in Mars by Navy Lt. Cmdr. Mario Runco Jr., a NASA astronaut. The astronaut's mission is to teach Martian children about space and Soviet-American friendship at school lunches and assemblies. "It just seems natural when you live close to Mars. People here have a lot of pride that our town is named after a planet, " said Bonnie Solino, mother of the first Martian to invite spacemen to this sector of the solgr system. There are no plans for side trips to nearby Moon or Apollo townships. 6 6 t 6' W' y i1+ r' CANTERBURY HOUSE (Episcopal Church Chaplaincy) 218 N.
