"We can manage without the loan guarantees. But without peace, we cannot." Baker earlier said "I am not dis- couraged at all" by the U.S.-Israeli rift. "We have always known there would be bumps along the way." Shortly before Baker's arrival, Shamir's top political aide said that a delay in U.S. loan guarantees was "casting a shadow" on the peace ef- fort. The aide, Yossi Ben-Aharon, told army radio that "whoever thinks they can achieve anything by pres- suring Israel is mistaken."

(AP) - A former Kalamazoo resident was among six people killed when a U.S. Navy helicopter crashed in the Persian Gulf last weekend, mili- tary sources said yesterday. U.S. Navy Lt. j.g. Craig Valentine, 26, was killed when the MH-53 Sea Dragon helicopter crashed into the Arabian Gulf after takeoff from an amphibious assault ship, said his mother, Karen Valentine. She said Navy officials contacted her Sunday. Valentine wanted to follow his grandfather's footsteps as a Navy pilot, his mother said. "He was absolutely perfect, he really was. He never was a prob- lem," Mrs. Valentine told the Kalamazoo Gazette. "He was bright, an honor student, and well- liked by all his classmates." Craig Valentine was born in Des Moines, Iowa, and moved to the Kalamazoo area in 1976. He graduated from Gull Lake High School and was a 1987 University graduate. He met his wife, Tracey, from Bloomfield Hills, while at the University, his mother said. Tracey Valentine now lives in San Francisco. Valentine entered the Navy flight program in Pensacola, Fla., and completed it in 1987, Karen Valentine said. He was stationed at the Alameda Naval Air Station in California before shipping out for Saudi Arabia in July. Navy Lt. Robert Ross said yes- terday the helicopter was used for hauling cargo and hunting mines. Lt. Cmdr. Tim O'Leary, a spokesperson for the U.S. Naval Command, said the aircraft crashed at 9:05 p.m. Saturday, minutes after taking off from the amphibious as- sault ship USS Peleliu 40 miles north of Bahrain. The bodies were not recovered until yesterday, he said. by Ben Deci Five of the alleged participants in Saturday's South University street melee were arraigned yester- day. Valentine The bodies were taken to the military hospital in Dhahran, Saudi Arabia, and will be flown back to the United States later, he said. The U.S. Navy has maintained a strong force in the Persian Gulf re- gion since the end of the war in February, during which time more than 70 American service members have died. District Court Judge S.J. Elden presided over the formal reading of charges in a packed courtroom. The charges ranged from inciting a riot, to felonious assault, to malicious destruction of police property. Of the five defendants, Shane Holbrook is the only defendant cur- rently in custody. The Ann Arbor resident is charged with inciting a riot and felonious assault. If con- victed, the 17-year-old could face up to 10 years imprisonment. At the time of his arrest, Holbrook was awaiting trial for an unrelated incident. He entered no plea at his arraignment and re- quested a public defender. The other four defendants - Notre Dame junior Michael Hartmann, LSA sophomore Michael Van Scoy, and Engineering juniors Anthony Harris and Lance Peterson - have been released on a $1,000 bond. Van Scoy and Hartman were charged with felonious assault and face a maximum penalty of four years imprisonment. "We entered a plea of not guilty today," said Basil Baker, the attor- ney for Van Scoy and Hartmann. "To comment any further on the case would be inappropriate." Harris, is charged with mali- cious destruction of police property and will be defended by a public de- fender. Due to the nature of the charge, Harris' case will be heard in circuit court instead of district court. I FRATS Continued from page 1 The police asked that they clear the people from their front lawn and turn down their music. Spokespersons from Phi Delta Theta and Phi Gamma Delta would 764-0552 not comment on the police crack- down last night. Levy said he feels that while po- lice say they are trying to foster better relationships with Univer- sity students, "they act hypocriti- cally when they do things like break up parties and tear gas football fans." "If they call how they are acting making a better relationship with students, if cracking down on us and not telling us why making a better relationship with students, I don't want to see what they think makes a bad relationship," he said. Matt Commers, president of the Interfraternity Council (IFC), said, "I think that a good working rela- tionship between students and po- lice assumes that students are obey- ing the law. If a fraternity is serving alcohol to a vast number of people, it causes things to happen outside of the house that are detrimental to ev- eryone." Commers added that the goal of the police crackdown is to curb inci- dents of this civil disobedience. Peterson, whose case will be held in a circuit court, is charged with felonious assault of a police officer. He also requested a public defender. Preliminary examinations for Van Scoy and Hartman will begin Oct. 2. The rest of the defendants will begin preliminary examina- tions Sept. 25.

EMU officials confirmed that four of those arrested are EMU students. The three arrested foot- ball players involved in the incident will not receive preferential treat- ment, Coach Jim Hankema said. "We're conducting an investiga- tion, and, as usual, we'll handle this situation as an internal family mat- ter," Hankema said. The Field House was cleared out around 1:30 a.m., Tinney said. How- ever, as officers were returning to the police station, they received a call to investigate a fight outside of Sellers Residence Hall. As they approached the scene, the officers heard a gunshot and found a first-year EMU student with a gun- shot wound, Tinney said. The victim had been on his way home from the dispersed fraternity party. Three suspects fled on foot and are believed to have escaped in a black Ford Escort. The victim, whose name is not being released, remains in stable condition. The two men apparently knew each other from high school and had a confrontation earlier that evening. WASHINGTON (AP) - A federal judge dismissed all charges against Oliver North, the central figure in the Iran-Contra affair, yes- terday after the special prosecutor gave up tryingto reinstate North's felony convictions. An exultant North declared himself "totally exonerated... I've had my last hearing forever, I hope." North hugged his attorney, fam- ily and friends in the courtroom af- ter U.S. District Court Judge Gerhard A. Gesell dismissed the charges. Independent counsel Lawrence Walsh said he had decided it was un- likely he could win reinstatement of North's three convictions - for destroying documents, accepting an illegal gratuity and aiding in ob- LEGISLATORS Continued from page 1 maintain the 4 percent increase. Many people have tried to take the money away, but we hope the com- mittee will stand by Engler and maintain the funding," she said. The issue of state funding for new University buildings will also be on the agenda. Recently, Engler recommended that the state remove all funding for new University buildings, while the House recom- mended the state pay up to 20 per- cent of the cost and the Senate rec- ommended up to 40 percent. In the past two years, when uni- versities opened new buildings, the state paid for 20 to 60 percent of the total cost of the building. Opponents of the funding say the cost of these buildings takes away from funding for universities which have no new buildings at the time the money is allotted. Keith Molin, associate vice pres- struction of Congress - which were set aside by a federal appeals court in July 1990. The appeals court had ordered Gesell to determine whether testi- mony at North's trial was tainted by use of the defendant's own forced testimony before Congress, given under immunity in 1987. President Bush, who has referred to North as a hero for his Vietnam exploits, called yesterday's action "a good decision." "It sounds like the system worked very well," Bush said. However, Walsh said the dis- missal should be taken as "a very se- rious warning that immunity is not to be granted lightly." ident for government relations and secretary to the University, said he didn't want to predict the outcome of today's meeting. "It is risky to predict these things. You never really know what all the factors are that come into play," Molin said. "But I wouldn't be surprised or disappointed if the report is finalized. Four of the committee members are probably seeing it for the first time." Molin said the issue of new building funding is of primary con- cern for the University. "I expect facility funding to be a big issue. Naturally we would like the state to fund as much as possi- ble, but given the budgetary prob- lems, we support the Senate's rec- ommendation to fund 40 percent of the total cost," Molin said. Molin agreed with Campbell about the importance of maintaining the 4 percent increase to higher edu- cation.
