senior and protest leader. "I wonder
why they were deputized first and
then trained. If the University had
been concerned about the training,
they would've checked the officers'
'sensitivity' before deputizing
them."
"To distinguish between the
University rhetoric and what had ac-
tually been going on is difficult,"
said Mark Buchan, a member of the
Students' Rights Commission. "It's
deceitful, but I can't say I'm sur-
prised," said the second-year
Rackham student.
Students cite many incidents
which trace the University's refusal
to release information on the depu-
tized officers' status.
At an information session on
campus security October 11, atten-
dants attest that Associate Vice
President for Business Operations
Bill Krumm said the University had
not begun deputizing officers.
By this date, eight Department of
Public Safety and Security officers
had already been selected and depu-
tized.
However, yesterday Krumm de-
nied telling students the University
was not deputizing officers. "I did

not say that. We started deputizing
officers in August. We've deputized
eight officers at this point in time,"
Krumm said.
Buchan accused Krumm of lying
at the forum. "He said it was still in
the recruiting stage and they were
going to conduct a nationwide search
for the officers," said Buchan.
Sgt. Vernon Baisden of the
DPSS Crime Prevention .. and
Community Relations Department
did not deny in mid-October that
eight officers had been deputized, but
reserved comment on the issue. He
later acknowledged their authoriza-
tion.
The officers' training is another
issue of contention. The University
reported in the Oct. 22 issue of The
University Record that DPSS had
been training the officers since Oct.
1. Prior to the release, however,
Baisden told The Daily, "We've just
about completed the process. We're
now working on choosing people."
Baisden later said he had not been
authorized to report the information
on officers' training.
Phone calls to DPSS trainees
were not returned or were referred to
Baisden, who said it was not possi-
ble to interview them.
Associate Vice President for
Governmental Relations Virginia

Nordby said there is no public inter-
est, in the police officers' back-
grounds.
"(There) has been no specific in-
cident or event involving any of
these officers which might create a
public interest in knowing that offi-
cer's employment record, discipline
history, medical records or traini
experiences," she said in a lettw
denying a request for information
under the state's Freedom of
Information Act.
The eight officers were formerly
University security officers. They
have all received college degress and
have fulfilled the necessary police
academy training required by the
Michigan Law Enforcement Officers
Training Council, Baisden said.
DPSS has already received 115
applications, many from out of
state, for the next group of six offi-
cers, who will begin training in
January, he said. "The University of
Michigan has a fine reputation for
not only academics but also for em-
ployment." he added.
All security officers applying to
be deputized are subject to an inte,
view panel made up of a representa-
tive from University personnel, a
member of the DPSS command
staff, and a member of a minority
group or a female.

were eight dead."
Gibbons stressed that authorities
were not ruling out further changes
in the death toll. "This is probably
going to go up or down all
evening," he said shortly after 7
p.m.
The DC-9, Flight 1482 to
Pittsburgh, was carrying 39 passen-
gers and four crewmembers, accord-
ing to the airline. The 727, Flight
299 to Memphis, was carrying 146
passengers.
Both flights had originated in
Detroit, according to Patrick
McCann, a Northwest spokesperson
at its headquarters in Eagan, Minn.
"Apparently the right wing of the
727 hit the aft section, the engine,
of the DC-9, taking the engine off,"
said Alan Muncaster, another
Northwest spokesperson. "That re-
sulted in the fire. That, at this point,
is all we know."
At the time of the crash, visibility

was poor and the ground was wet
from a morning snow and sleet
storm that delayed flights at Detroit
Metropolitan Airport. Muncaster
said the airport had been closed to
inbound traffic but that planes were
being allowed to take off.
Tony Dresden, a spokesperson for
the National Air Traffic Controllers
Association, said there was about a
quarter-mile visibility in the air, but
only about 800 feet on the ground.
"We've had some discussions
with our people out there," Dresden
said. "The DC-9 pilot became lost
on the runways. The pilot gave the
ground controller erroneous informa-
tion about his position and turned
right onto the runway where the 727
was taxing.
"The DC-9 pilot discovered at the
very last moment where he was, and
so the ground controller told him to
immediately get off that runway, but
it was too late."
He stressed that his information
was preliminary. The Federal
Avintinn Adiministratin which su-

ticipates a budgetary short fall in the
parking system fund, and approved
the installation of the new parking
meters to help raise revenues. The
shortfall is due to repair and mainte@
nance costs and revenue shortfalls for
city parking structures.
Investigators from the National
Transportation Safety Board were be-
ing dispatched to begin a probe
aimed at determining the cause of the
accident, a safety board spokesperson
said.
The 727 did not appear to hav
been seriously damaged in th
collision.
At Annapolis Hospital in Wayne,
seven passengers were in stable con-
dition and one in critical condition,
spokesperson Pat O'Dowd said. TwQ
of the victims at that hospital were
transferred to the University of
Michigan Medical Center Burn
Center at Ann Arbor.
At least two of the people taken
to Annapolis were Northwest em-
ployees, O'Dowd said.
Four people were in stable condi-
tion at Heritage Hoospital in Taylor,
spokesperson Barbara Nicholson
said. None of their injuries were
burns.
Muncaster said surviving passen-
gers were taken to the airport
Marriot hotel.
A family center was opened at a
Ramada Inn about a mile from the
scene.
with earlier administration pro-
nouncements. As recently as Oct.
15, Cheney himself had said the
opposite.
He said yesterday that lengthy re-
liance on sanctions would cede tv
Saddam the ability to determine fu-
ture events. "Such a policy would
give Hussein breathing space" during
which he could augment his army,
Cheney contended.
"It is far better for us to deal with
him now ... than it will be for us to
deal with him five or 10 years from
now, when the members of the
coalition have gone their disparate
ways and when Saddam has become
an even better armed and more
threatening regional superpower than
he is at present," Cheney said.

we never will know whether they
would have worked," Nunn said.
Sen. John Glenn, (D-Ohio),
voiced misgivings about a "Chicken
Little approach to our policy. The
sky is falling and the only option is
war." .
Cheney spelled out in detail the
U.S. position that American and in-
ternational interests are in jeopardy
in the gulf crisis, contending that
Saddam might gain a stranglehold on
oil, that he is destroying Kuwait and
that his continued military buildup
could mean further aggression.
"It is not so clear that time is al-
together on our side," Cheney said, a
