LSA Sophomore Jesse Walker founded the Abolitionist Party last year, and is running again this year, with ten other students interested only in abolishing the assembly. "We formed the Abolitionist party last year in response to what we saw as a growing autocratic atti- tude on MSA," Walker explained. "We think the assembly is becoming a mirror image of much of what we dislike in the University's adminis- tration." However, some students had less ambitious reasons for seeking elec- tion. LSA Sophomore Ranjan Bagchi said he is running for MSA because "it beats studying." DIRECTORS Continued from page 1 tion between past and present elec- tion directors.

MSA President Aaron Williams said he did not think most students would oppose such a course. How- ever, he questioned if students would want to learn if they are "forced". Minority Affairs Commission member Delro Harris said, "If you have a selection (of courses) then you have a choice." He said a diver- sity requirement is not much differ- ent than current distribution and con- centration requirements. "I think that some of these courses would educate people, and I'm all in support of that." Harris also said the course could improve campus race relations. 1 B..OD I EAP, PMA &N .

' l ' ,,,,,, r IN BRIEF Compiled from Associated Press and staff reports Gorbachev warns Lithuania MOSCOW -The Kremlin sternly warned the breakaway republic of Lithuania, yesterday, not to put up its own customs posts, introduce its own currency or take over Moscow-run factories without permission. The nationally televised announcement was Mikhail Gorbachev's first concrete step to counter Lithuania's March 13 declaration of independence. The announcement did not say what would happen if Lithuania ignored the orders. Earlier yesterday, a Lithuanian delegation delivered a letter to the Kremlin that promised Soviet interests in the republic would be given "careful consideration." Lithuanian activist Eduardas Potashinskas said he thought most Lithuanians would take the government warning calmly. Gorbachev and the Congress of People's deputies - the national par- liament - declared the declaration of independence invalid last week, but Kremlin leaders have ruled out the use of troops in Lithuania. S&L funding falls short WASHINGTON - President Bush's savings and loan bailout will fall at least $30 billion and possibly as much as $162 billion short of the amount needed to clean up the industry, a congressional report said yester- day. Legislation enacted in August provided $50 billion to close or sell failed thrift associations through 1992. However, $48 billion of that will be needed to cover losses at the 383 institutions seized by the government through March 5, concluded a report submitted by Rep. Bruce Vento (D- Minnesota). Regulators expect the failure of an additional 225 to 295 S&Ls with losses of a least $32 billion to $40 billion, according to the report. Bailout officials, however, say there is enough money to last into next year. If there's a shortfall after that, money intended to cover S&L losses after 1992 could be reallocated to cover earlier failures, they say. Senators accept PAC money WASHINGTON - Political action committees (PACs) aligned with financial institutions donated $344,133 to Sen. Donald Riegle's political coffers from 1983 to 1988, the public affairs organization Common Cause reported yesterday. Meanwhile, organized labor and pro-Israel groups were Sen. Carl Levin's top PAC contributors during the six-year period. Labor PACs gave $281,995 and pro-Israel groups gave $177,688 to the Detroit Demo- crat. The study, based on financial reports that candidates are required to submit periodically to the Federal Election Commission, covers the peri- ods in which Levin and Riegle last sought re-election as well as years when they were not campaigning. Riegle took in $1,529,901 from PACs during the six-year period, Common Cause said, including $1.2 million for his 1988 campaign. PACs gave Levin $724,634 from 1983 through 1988 including $707,766 for the 1984 campaign. New prison boot camp will be developed in Chelsea LANSING - A new prison boot camp will be developed at Chelsea because it is cheaper to renovate the Cassidy Lake Technical Training School than to build a new facility, officials say. The new boot camp for about 360 young, first-time male felons will be developed at Cassidy Lake by this fall, officials said Friday. Jackson had been discussed as one site for the camp, which is expected to employ about 100 people. Donald Hengesh, director of Camp Sauble, the state's only existing boot camp, said Cassidy Lake was chosen because it needs only minor renovations. The camp will open as soon as the staff is trained and the residents are moved out. The 400 minimum-security inmates lodged at Cassidy Lake will be moved this summer into other camps, including Michigan Parole Camp near the State Prison of Southern Michigan at Jackson. Ultrasound probes take first 3-D photos of heart arteries NEW ORLEANS - Miniature ultrasound probes inserted into the body are taking the first 3-D pictures of the heart's arteries, providing highly detailed images of clogged and damaged vessels to help doctors fix them, researchers report. The pictures clearly show cracks and breaks in the artery wall, bulges of fatty deposits and the layers of tissue that surround the blood vessel. The development of three-dimensional images appears to be a signifi- cant improvement on the still-experimental use of inside-the-body ultra- sound probes to take pictures of ailing arteries. That technique, which is only about 2 years old, has been used to make two-dimensional pictures of cross sections of blood vessels. Even with its limitations, doctors often describe this approach as "a fantastic voyage" for its ability to give the illusion that they are traveling inside blood vessels.
