0 Page 2 -The Michigan Daily -Thursday, October 12,1989 Station t irfo Union by Daniel Poux Today, as you stroll through the Union on the way to class or the Mug, look around for some impor- tant looking people talking into mi- crophones, with the absence of any speakers or guitars in the back- ground. WXYT-AM 1270 will be broad- casting live their format of inter- views and sportstalk all day from the Michigan Union Grill. Station officials hope to solicit student feedback about Saturday's Michigan-Michigan State football game, and will travel to East Lansing to do tomorrow's broadcast. "The college atmosphere is a wonderful atmosphere, and what bet- ter time to highlight Michigan's col- leges," said WXYT Executive Producer Joan Cherry Isabella. Isabella said the station will be broadcasting from the Union from 6 Detroit-based WXYT to talk with 'U' students, stars a.m. to 7 p.m. and will talk to many well-known Michigan sports figures. An hour with Jerry Lockhardt, Director of the Michigan Marching Band, and Bo's Boosters, a men's glee club affiliated with the football program, will start the day. Following that, morning personality John McCulloch will be talking to students about the football game and other sporting events. McCulloch will go on later in the show to interview basketball coach Steve Fischer and senior guard Rumeal Robinson about last year's national championship and the up- coming Wolverine basketball sea- son. The programming will also deal with several women's issues at the University. From 7 a.m. to 8 a.m., McCulloch's show, titled "Women at U of M," will highlight several female standouts at the University, including women's cross country runner Mindy Rowland and will also feature several female speakers from the United Coalition Against Racism. McCulloch's final interview be- fore David Newman takes over is Peer Counseling Center's Doreen Murasky, who will discuss social and academic pressures on campus. Newman will conclude the morn- ing by interviewing Joel Kamisir, a professor from the Law School. Kamisir is scheduled to discuss the upcoming legal battle over abortion. Former Detroit Tiger baseball pitcher and afternoon radio host Denny McLain will start at 4:00 p.m. and will talk with Wolverine baseball coach Bill Freehan, who used to catch for McLain on the Tigers.McLain will close the Union roadcast with Athletic Director and football coach Bo Schembechler. "We're looking for a lot of stu- dent input, on all of the topics," said WXYT Public Relations Manager Tracy Zambeck. "We want students to come by and talk to us, and tell us how they feel about football games, issues on campus, and aca- demic pressures." IN BRIEF Compiled from Associated Press and staff reports Great Lakes toxic build up continues over cleanup efforts CHICAGO - Despite an intensive Great Lakes cleanup effort that began in the early 1970s, toxic substances continue to build up and may pose an even greater health threat today, said U.S. and Canadian experts yesterday. The accumulations are poisoning wildlife and may reach up the food chain to 35 million people who live in the region, according "Great Lakes, Great Legacy?," a report released at a joint news conference held simultaneously in Chicago and Toronto. The report said the Great Lakes cleanup that began in the early 1970s has reduced the amount of human waste and toxic industrial garbage dumped into the lakes, but has not prevented continued buildups of some dangerous chemicals, including cancer-causing polychlorinated biphenyls, or PCBs, as well as pesticides that leach into the lakes. The Great Lakes - Erie, Huron, Michigan, Ontario and Superior - border seven states and Canada, and hold 20 percent of the world's fresh surface water. Govs. accept nuclear waste WASHINGTON - The Bush administration pressed governors of seven states yesterday to help avert a possible forced shutdown of the Rocky Flats nuclear arms plant by agreeing to temporarily store part of its radioactive waste next year. Most of the seven - Idaho, Colorado, New Mexico, Nevada, South Carolina, Tennessee and Washington - had indicated earlier this week they would not accept any of the waste, which contains plutonium that remains radioactive for 240,000 years. Washington Gov. Booth Gardner refused to budge after receiving a telephone call yesterday from White House Chief of Staff John Sununu. The administration says closing Rocky Flats would amount to unilateral nuclear disarmament since it is the sole maker of plutonium triggers for warheads. The seven were singled out because they have Energy Department nuclear weapons facilities that already hold vast amounts of radioactive and toxic wastes. High court hears state plea WASHINGTON - A Michigan appeals court correctly threw out a 1986 sexual-conduct conviction because the prosecution used an illegally obtained confession to challenge the defendant's testimony, an attorney told the Supreme Court yesterday. Robert Morgan argued an attorney should be present at all interrogations of someone charged with a crime. Representing the state of Michigan, Timothy Baughman, chief of research, training and appeals in the Wayne County prosecutor's office, argued that use of the disputed evidence did not deprive Tyris Harvey of a fair trial. Harvey, accused of beating and sexually assaulting a woman in July 1986, made two statements to police without a lawyer present. Harvey volunteered the second but said he might want to confer with his lawyer. Police told him that was not necessary because the attorney would get a copy of the statement. The court gave no indication of when it would rule. Doctors limit care for fear of malpractice lawsuits study says WASHINGTON - Frequent malpractice lawsuits and sharply rising insurance premiums are causing some doctors to stop delivering babies, leaving poor women with only limited obstetrical care, an Institute of Medicine study said yesterday. A two-year study by a panel that included doctors, lawyers and educators found that "significant numbers" of obstetricians, other physicians and nurse-midwives are limiting the types of care they provide because of concern over being sued. "The result is a serious shortage of obstetrical care in many rural and inner city areas," said Roger Bulger, chair of the Institute of Medicine study committee and president of the Association of Academic Health Centers. EXTRAS MSU protects Sparty from paint EAST LANSING (AP) - Kickoff for the football game between Michigan State and Michigan is 3:35 p.m. Saturday, but some MSU students already are playing defense. Students have been staging all-night vigils around Sparta since Sunday in order to protect the Spartan warrior from a sneak attack by Michigan fans, said Mary Platt, spokeswoman for the Michigan State marching band. The 9-foot-7-inch ceramic statue has frequently received unwanted paint jobs of maize and blue prior to the intrastate football clash she said, but students wanted to protect the statue this year because it has just undergone a $75,000 restoration. Marching band members conducted the nightly vigil Sunday through Tuesday and the Varsity S Club planned to join last night, she said. "They bring their sleeping bags and coffee pots with them and sit in shifts." she said. S 6 6 Linda Kurtz (center) leads cheers for LaGROC in front of the Graduate Library during yesterday's rally. LAGROC Continued from Page 1 rally was very, very successful, at least as successful as last year's rally and much more successful than past years," said LaGROC member Brian Durrance. "Spirit was high, the mu- sic was fun and everyone was happy." There was some conflict with preacher Mike Caulk, a member of the Cornerstone Christian Fellowship who frequently speaks on the Diag. Caulk voiced opposite opinions during the rally, and was engaged in a verbal banter with the protesters. After the rally, LaGROC mem- bers and other supporters marched to the Fleming Administration Building to present their demands. f::"(I :~ w .::::::h"....: I kinko'vs the copy center HOURS OPEN 7 DAYS OPEN 24 niversity Michigan Union 540 E.

Offer regular courses in Lesbian and gay Men's studies at the university. Ultimately, establish a Lesbian and Gay Men's culture department which would serve the needs of not only the L/GM communuty, but the University as a whole. Establish a mandatory class on racism and sexism which includes a section on 'heterosexism'. Expose Frosh to the concepts of anti-Lesbian and Gay Men's bigotry. Improve the Lesbian and Gay Men's literature collections in the university library. Consolidate and create a 'union list' of L/GM's serials available in the Labadie collection. Establish a 'lounge' or 'community center' on campus for Lesbians and Gay Men for meetings, films, poetry read- ings and current literature. This would benefit not only the: Lesbian and Gay Men's community, but the university as a whole because it would serve as a resource 'center' on campus. Reform university housing policies. Include Lesbian and gay Men's couples in your policies. Include 'sexual orientation' in the Michigan Mandate. Include an openly Gay member on the AIDS Task Force.
