*I Page 2-The Michigan Daily- Friday, March 13, 1992 LABOR Continued from page 1 Democratic contenders are also in keen competition for the labor vote after the exit of Iowa Senator Tom Harkin from the race. Organized labor support for Tsongas has been cool because of his opposition to a ban on hiring re- placement workers for strikers. Rather than back away from that position, the former Massachusetts senator told, about 50 United Auto Workers members at Hermes Automotive Manufacturing Corp. in Detroit that he wants to do away with strikes. Requiring labor and management to arbitrate labor disputes would end antagonism between the two groups, he said. Some members of UAW Local 174 were unconvinced. "If you take away the power of the union, we have no bargaining power. We're at their mercy," said Ives Roper, of Detroit. The final answer, Tsongas said, is a growing economy brought about by his plans for a capital gains tax cut, increased capital for new busi- nesses and investment in scientific research. Tsongas also said a proposed free-trade agreement with Mexico, fought by labor, wouldn't mean a net loss of jobs if the United States invested in economic growth to re- place ones sent to Mexico. He declined to predict how well he'll do in Michigan, but conceded he is a stranger to Michigan voters, especially Blacks, because he has had less money than Clinton. Quayle, in Michigan a day before a campaign swing by President Bush, spoke to about 200 people at the Pontiac Rotary Club meeting at the Pontiac Silverdome. He told reporters that workers have little to fear from the free trade agreement. "I am convinced that exports will help lead the nation to eco- nomic recovery. If you think Mexico can make a better dieselen- gine that what I saw today, I dis- agree," he said. Quayle declined to criticize General Motors Corp. for its deci- sion to cut 9,000 jobs from Michigan. But Clinton told a crowd of at least 300 at a town meeting at Macomb Community College that automakers have contributed to their own problems with inefficien- cies and price increases. "Those are management prob- lems, not labor problems," he said. He said GM came to the govern- ment looking for tax cuts and pro- tection from imports, and regula- tory relief, and got them. "They went to the auto workers and asked for concessions and they got 'em and got em and got em.

DEARBORN - University of Michigan-Dearborn students ex- pressed concern about tuition in- creases during the public comments session of the University Board of Regents' monthly meeting held on the campus yesterday. Donald Knapp, a junior and rep- resentative of the student govern- ment's academic house, said, "I am deeply concerned about the thought of a double-digit tuition increase." Knapp said most students at the Dearborn campus have to work to pay for their education, and higher tuition will force them to work more and sacrifice time for classes and Knapp pointed out that the University's Dearborn campus re- ceives the least amount of state funding per student of any university in Michigan. University President James Duderstadt said, "We are very con- cerned about that, and have been working very hard to try to improve the situation. We agree with you and support you." Matthew Kappel, a Michigan Collegiate Coalition delegate, said he and his friends will have to quit school if tuition increases continue. "If we cannot afford an educa- We'd be more than happy to see all of you regents and high-level admin- istrators take pay cuts," he said. Regent Neal Nielsen Brighton) responded, "I don't one red cent for doing this. I time off from my work to do community service for University." (R- get take this the Kappel also suggested that the regents' visit the Dearborn campus more than once per year and com- municate more with students. "The only correspondance we have with you is the yearly letter an- nouncing the tuition hikes," he said. Calvin and Hobbes by Bill Watterson BILL Continued from page 1 MO PA AM DUES IN . E . air I.

The spokesperson said the Appropriations Committee will wait until after Sep. 30 - the end of the fiscal year - to determine whether to approve the increased financial aid outlined by the reauthorization act. State Sen. John Schwarz (R- Battle Creek), co-chair of the Michigan Higher Education Subcommittee, said the increased federal financial aid will have to compete with already-existing state loan programs, such as State Guarantee Loans. "It would be difficult to disman- tle state loans for a federal direct loan program," Schwarz said. Schwarz said the decision whether to implement the changes outlined in the reauthorization act currently is not a top legislative pri- ority. The reauthorization act simplifies the procedure of how need for fi- nancial aid is determined. The loan and grant systems have been com- bined into one, the forms have been shortened, and students, once ap- proved to receive federal aid, will not need to reapply to receive aid the following year. To lessen defaults on federal loans, schools with default rates ex- ceeding 25 percent will be dropped from financial aid eligibility. The previous threshold of the Higher Education Act was 25 percent. 0 s 113 ,ir I I Schoolkids Records WAMX Mix 107 and f(f Present 20TH ANNIVERSARY SHOWING CLINTON Continued from page 1 READ THE A .OKO FILM DIRECTED BY STEVE GEBHARDT JOHN LENNON AND YOKO ONO BOB SEGER " STEVIE WONDER COMMANDER CODY & HIS LOST PLANET AIRMEN ALLEN GINSBERG " BOBBY SEALE JERRY RUBIN " ED SANDERS " PHIL OCHS ARCHIE SHEPP & ROSWELL RUDD W/ CJQ TEAGARDEN & VANWINKLE " THE UP All Seats Speaking about the film: STEVE GEBHARDT, Director Reserved PETER ANDREWS, Event Producer JOHN SINCLAIR, Victim Tickets EXCLUSIVE ®ONE SHOW ONLY Michigan Theater *O EO L and all outlets Friday March 13.19928:00PM Charge by phone ABenefit for Michi an Theater .Ann Arbor Diverse Media Zone Duie *" frank M8 I RCM F E Gar - Gisa LEE Continued from page 1 group of people can be when they set aside the bullshit." Lee has written, produced, di- rected, and acted in five movies, in- cluding last year's Jungle Fever. Lee has also directed and appeared with Chicago Bull Michael Jordan in sev- eral Nike tennis shoe commercials. Due to Lee's $15,000 appearance fee, UAC was having difficulties finding money in the group's budget to fund the project. Bernstein said. To solve this problem, Lee's visit is being sponsored under a system called "percentage in, percentage out." "The groups get in, help run the program, and get out with their original money and maybe more," Bernstein said. "It's not for a profit, but to put the money back into their organiza- tions," Bernstein continued. "The groups provided capital for the pro- gram, giving them a stake in the pro- ject. Not only will they get back their investment plus some extra, they will be involved from the be- ginning to the end.

"No one knew what was going on." financing a program on this cam- pus," Bernstein said. "There has been a lot of ups and downs in this project. But we are gaining momen- tum as a group." Many of the visit sponsors said they look forward to the event. "It's a little confusing with so many groups working together," Interfraternity Council President Bruce Namerow said. "But I think it is very exciting to see all of the groups helping to run and fund Lee's visit." "This is such a major event with many diverse groups; sponsorship became very appealing," said Ann Kaufman, a member of the LSA Student Government. "It is also a good way for groups to make money because it is a secure contract. But that is secondary." Inter-Cooperative Council mem- ber Ali Johnson said Lee's visit cost "a very large amount of our budget." But he added, "We knew this project was very important. It's got a lot of different groups together." . "It is a wide variety of organiza- tions on campus who hadn't worked with each other before," Panhellenic Association member Meghan Cleary said. Robert Sullivan was also on duty at the library when the bomb threat was called in. "I worked up to seven and then I took my break. There was nothing wrong when I left," Sullivan said. "But when I returned from break all of the doors were locked," he continued. "The police told me to go home because there had been a bomb threat." "We are just going to go along with Public Safety and see what they find out," said Wendy Lougee, head of the Graduate Library. "They did a search of the building.
