"It happened to me and it was very frustrating," he said. On the first morning,rthe contes- tants filmed some promotional commercials for Jeopardy. "It was the dumbest experience I've ever been a part of," Miller said. Miller testified to Alex Trebek's pompous attitude. "Alex was very aloof," Miller said, "He didn't want to have anything to do with us." Miller said that during the taping of the commercials, Alex said, "Let's get this over with as soon as possi- ble." Still, Miller said he had a great time and that the experience was worthwhile. "Everybody should watch every night, all the games were very close," he said. Miller said watching the show will never be the same. "You can't yell at a guy for not knowing the an- swer to a question when you know how nervous he is," Miller said. One contestant said (to Miller) that he could never watch the show again, but Miller disagreed. "It's cer- tainly the best show on the televi- sion, but Alex is still a jerk." The winner of th(.

GREEKS Continued from page 1 cil) should have some sort of ac- countability to the University," said Sam Walker, a member of a campus fraternity. Josh Greenblatt, president of Sigma Alpha Epsilon, said Univer- sity participation in the governing of the Greek system "would infringe on individuals' rights." Greenblatt expressed concern about the kind of sanctions that could be imposed if the University participates in governing the Greek system, such as suspension from class or hold credit. "This is a non-school related thing, so it doesn't make sense to me," he said. Regent Deane Baker (R-Ann Ar- bor), said University intervention in Greek system affairs raises the ques- tion of free speech. "At some point there's a limita- tion on the matter of free speech," he said. "One person's free speech is another person's offense," Baker said. "By and large, the University's policy toward such groups... is to let them run their own affairs." IN BRIEF Compiled from Associated Press and staff reports Japan to extradite Chinese man facing hijacking charges TOKYO - Japan agreed to extradite a Chinese man to Beijing to face hijacking charges after receiving assurances he will receive no more than 10 years in prison, the Foreign Ministry spokesperson said yesterday. Spokesperson Taizo Watanabe said an order to surrender Zhang Zhen- hai, 36, to Chinese authorities was drawn up yesterday. The Chinese Em- bassy did not say when it planned to take custody of the accused hijacker. Human rights groups and Zhang's lawyers had urged Japan to grant Zhang political asylum or allow him to be tried in Japan. They said he had been politically active in China and faced execution. "We do not share the view that he was poitically involved." Watanabe said. "That is why we have decided that he should be tried in China." Zhang hijacked a Chinese jetliner with 223 people aboard on a Beijing- Shanghai flight on Dec. 16. He demanded to go to the United States. Telescope launches into space CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. - Seven years late, the Hubble Space Te- lescope is where it belongs, out of this world and in search of others so distant that they may have been formed at the beginning of time. Less than five hours after it rode into space aboard the shuttle Discov- ery yesterday, the $1.5 billion telescope sent its first test radio signal. At the sign of life, applause and cheers erupted in Mission Control in Hous- ton. The telescope was supposed to be launched in 1983, but technical problems and the Challenger accident delayed its deployment. It suffered a further delay two weeks ago when the countdown was stopped at the four- minutes-to-go point because of a faulty hydraulic unit on the shuttle. While it remained on Earth, the telescope cost $7 million a month to exercise and keep in readiness. In its first day in space, that checkout and testing continued remotely under control of the Goddard Space Flight Cen- ter in Maryland. Bush signs bill to record crimes against minorities WASHINGTON- President Bush on Monday signed a bill requiring the government to keep track of crimes against minorities, saying "hate crimes cannot be tolerated in a free society." At a White House ceremony attended by leaders of various minorities including gay-rights advocates, Bushcalled theameasure "a significant step to help guarantee civil rights for every American." Under the legislation, the Justice Department will keep statistics on offenses related to race, religion, sexual orientation and ethnicity as part of the FBI's annual uniform crime report. Approval of the so-called "hate crimes" bill followed complaints about a wave of such offenses on the part of neo-Nazi "skinheads" and others. "Bigotry and hate regrettably still exist in this country and hate breeds violence, threatening the security of our entire society," Bush said. Job costs cause inflation rise WASHINGTON - Americans' pay and benefits shot up 5.5 percent over the last 12 months, the largest jump in six years, the government said yesterday. Health insurance costs alone rose 12.1 percent. One economist called the continued surge in wages and medical care costs "a big negative on the inflation outlook." Others agreed, saying in- flationary problems can't be explained way by citing temporary factors, such as December's frigid temperatures. Consumer prices this year have been rising at an annual rate of 8.5 percent, the highest in eight years. The rising cost of wages and benefits may increase pressure on Federal Reserve policy makers to push interest rates higher in an effort to slow the economy and lower the inflation rate, analysts said. The 5.5 percent rise in overall employment costs was the largest 12- month advance since the 12 months ending with March 1984, the gov- ernment said. EXTRAS Daily marks two milestones This paper marks the end of two great eras. Today the Daily celebrates a the publication of the last issue in the 100th volume of the Michigan Daily, marking the completion of 100 years of editorial freedom. We also bid farewell to the great, but not late, Julian Nowak, the Daily's keyliner (that's lay out dude to you and me) for the past year. So at the present time, we don't know exactly how to feel, awed or empty. The 100 year anniversary has been looked forward to with such antici- pation that somewhere back in history, over anxious senior editors unwit- tingly put us a year ahead of ourselves. Hence the two years celebrating 99 years of editorial freedom. Julian, who has inspired much fear in deadline-weary editors with his huge chart of who is late and who is great, will be sorely missed. It just won't be the same without symphonic renditions of 'Eye of the Tiger.' Julian, the next 100 won't be the same without you. - Josh Mitnick able 0f tictgt Emig The Michigan Daily (ISSN 0745-967) is published Monday through Friday during the fall and winter terms by students at the University of Michigan.
