E. Quad Women's Weekend begins by Diane Cook Daily Women's Issues Reporter Unlike other commemoratory weeks and months celebrated on campus, National Women's History Month has not enjoyed much public- ity. The only campus event celebrat- ing Women's History Month will be a series of workshops and lectures this weekend exploring women's is- sues. The East Quad Representative Assembly and the Residence Halls Association are sponsoring the 23rd annual Women's Weekend, "Mental and Physical Empowerment: Women in Health." "It's a celebration of women and issues that are pertinent to them and society," said RC sophomore Jaimie Hammerling, one of the event's or- ganizers. Event coordinator and RC senior Megan Barber said the workshops were important to her because they address all aspects of women: men- tal, physical and spiritual. "It embodies all of women and that was important to me," she said. "I like the idea of celebrating woman as a whole." 23rd annual WOMEN'S WEEKEND schedule of events THURSDAY: 7:30-8:30 p.m. EQ/RC Auditorium: Keynote address given by Nancy Hawley, founding member of the Boston Women's Health Book Collective, publisherof The New Bodies, Our Selves FRIDAY: 3-5 p.m. Room 126: Self Defense Workshop 10 p.m. -2 a.m. Greene Lounge: Movies SATURDAY: 12:30-2:30 p.m. Room 126: Women and Mental Health panel discussion: Kate Issari, MSW; Shelley Chiesa,- Nutritionist; Jani Hassinger, MSW; Nancy Hawley, MSW. 3:30-5:30 p.m. Benzinger Library: Women of Color: A Herstory of Health Concerns paneldiscussion: Deborah McGregor, Assistant Professor; Sylvia Mustonen, MD; Pam Motoike, University Counseling Services;Ramidios Solarte, RN; Christina Jose, Women's Studies; America Bracio, School of Public Health.

(AP) - Hundreds of Lithuanian youths vol- unteered yesterday to serve as the breakaway republic's customs and frontier guards despite a Kremlin warning not to change border secu- rity operations. Lithuanian President Vytautas Landsbergis said the warning from Moscow actually marked the begin- ning of negotiations on the Baltic republic's demand for independence. He said Lithuania agreed with much of the Kremlin statement, including the order to maintain trade tics. Lithuania declared itself indepen- dent on March 11, 50 years after it was occupied by the Red Army and annexed to the Soviet Union. The Soviet Parliament declared the decree invalid but did not say what steps it would take to stop the republic from seceding. In a stern warning to Lithuania on Monday, the Kremlin ordered its own ministries to ensure there were no interruptions in customs and frontier procedures and in trade, transport, and communications. "I served two years in the occu- pying army, and now I want to serve in my country's," said a young man as he rushed to turn in his applica- tion in a cramped office in the Lithuanian capital's center. Lithua- nian officials said there were no plans to arm the border force. The symbolic value of the force may help convince other govern- ments that Lithuania is controlling its territory and should be formally recognized as a full-fledged country, said Edward Tuskenis of the republic parliament's information center. The small Baltic republic was quiet yesterday, with none of the dis- turbing signs of Soviet troop movements that intimidated the population over the weekend. Offi- cials said there also were no signs of an economic blockade by Moscow. "We are still receiving gas and oil," Lithuania's two most critical imports from the Soviet Union, said Prime Minister Kazimera Prun- skiene. Telephone communications be- tween Lithuania and the West were restored on Monday after being cut off for two and a half days due to what Soviet officials said was main- tenance work. However, Lithuanian Deputy Prime Minister Kazimieras Motieka said Soviet military airfields in the republic "have an excessive number of helicopters and perhaps also mili- tary units." Lithuania, on the Soviet Union's Western front line, contains eight military bases and tens, if not hun- dreds of thousands of troops, accord- ing to emigre sources. Soviet President Mikhail Gorbachev has said he does not intend to use force against the rebellious republic. Foreign Minister Eduard Shevardnadze, speaking yesterday in Windhoek, Nambia, reiterated that position. "We are against the use of force in any region, and particularly against the use of force domestically," he said. The White House voiced concern about Soviet troop movements on Lithuania's borders, but spokesperson Marlin Fitzwater said Gorbachev had offered assurances the Kremlin would not resort to force. A Lithuanian activist said people still were worried that an attack might be staged on Soviet soldiers or their families to create an excuse for a military takeover. Barber stressed, however, that the weekend is not just for women. "A lot of men feel very intimi- dated by the concept," she said. "We actually want to express that every- one is included." The event's organizers hope the issues raised at the workshops and lectures - such as how sexism has affected women's psychology - will continue to be discussed after the weekend's events end. . "We're just bringing this to the forefront for the weekend, but these are ongoing issues," Barber said. "We've had years and years of oppression. We're going to create a new history," Barber added.
