NORML

because the University asked him to
view a videotape of last year's Hash
Bash before ruling on the case.
"The videotape did not show any
violent activity or personal injuries,"
he said.
He also criticized the
University's statement that a forum
on drug use last night served as an
appropriate substitute for the Diag
rally.
"It is obvious that such a forum is
not an 'adequate alternative' that
would justify the University's
denying the Diag permit," he said.
Shelton asserted that he thinks
the University denied the permit in a
conscious effort to silence
NORML's voice.
"It is apparent to the Court that

the University refused to issue the
sound permit to NORML because
the University did not want to be
seen as aiding the presentation of the
NORML marijuana legalization
'I expected it to turn
out this way.'

rally, or the 'Hash Bash' in any
way," he said. "This is precisely the
sort of content based prior restraint
of speech and assembly which our
Constitution prohibits."
NORML Secretary Adam Brook
said he is pleased with the decision,
but not surprised by it.
"I expected it to turn out this
way," he said. "I was happy to see
that the judge agreed with us."
Brook added that he finds it

ironic that Judge Shelton issued his
decision on April 1, which was the
traditional date of Hash Bash. The
rally was moved to the first Saturday
in April last year.
Shelton also said that he decided
this case on the same basis as the
one in 1990 when the University
also refused NORML a permit.
"The University still fails to un-
derstand the basic premise of consti-
tutional law that a peaceable person
exercising his or her rights to free
speech may not be restricted because
of the fear of how others may react
to the exercise of those rights," he
said.
"I think that Judge Shelton's
decision is 100% correct and that the
appeals court will uphold it," said
Michael Warren, chair of the
Michigan Student Assembly's
Student Rights Commission.

"We want to look at what we can
do to stabilize tuition by either
freezing it, which would be ideal, or
tying it to inflation," he said
Fox and VanValkenburgh said
they think the change of leadership
from CC to the Progressive Party
will change the atmosphere of MSA.
"I think with Ede and myself
running meetings, the civility of the
discourse will increase,"
VanValkenburgh said. "We're
shooting to be more active and rep-
resent student interests to the admin-
istration as well as possible and keep
the infighting to a minimum."
"The agenda of MSA is going to
change to a more progressive one,
more pro-active," Fox said.
MSA Election Director Carrie
Pittman estimated Tuesday that all
ballot results would be available by
6 a.m. yesterday, but a lack of tal-
Hers made this impossible.
Those involved with these elec-
tions said scantron ballots are a good
possibility for next fall's elections to
make the tabulation process quicker
and more efficient.
"It would make things easier be-
cause we wouldn't have to pay peo-
ple to count ballots. It would be
much easier and it would definitely
save MSA money," Rules and
Elections Chair Brian Kight said.
Kight said scantron ballots would
make results available at 8 a.m. the
morning following elections.
.Official results for the remaining
school repre-entatives, oversight
board members and resolution ques-
tions will be available today.

COUNCIL
Continued from page 1
Planning Commission; Peter Nico-
las, a Democratic University grad-
uate student who stresses biparti-
sanship and independent thinking;
and Nick Contaxes, a Libertarian
and current landlord who contends
that "government isn't part of the
solution, it's part of the problem."
Mogdis, whose campaign has
focused on faults and weaknesses
of the current Democrat 8-3 major-
ity on the council, has been chal-
lenged by Nicolas to address the is-
sues.
"He's not taking this race very
seriously in my opinion," Nicolas
said. "I think he decided that just
because he has a little 'R' next to
his name, all he has to do is put his
name on the ballot. I think he is
sadly mistaken, he is taking the
voters for granted."
Nicolas urged Mogdis to address
4th Ward issues as well as the other
candidates in this year's race, rather
than the current council. "All he
says is that things are out of control
in City Hall," Nicolas said.
Mogdis defended himself
against Nicolas' charge. "The is-
sues of the city - the future of
parking, the future of downtown,
solid waste, taxes, micro-manage-
ment of city hall - are not specifi-
cally issues of the 4th Ward,"
Mogdis said.
"Secondly, he doesn't have any
record to run against. In fact, what I
Ann Arbor voting wards

legitimately have to run against is
the performance of the majority on
council which is the party he is
running on. So those are the issues.
Those are the issues that are impor-
tant to the 4th Ward," Mogdis
added.
Contaxes said if elected to the
Council he would work toward pri-
vatizing many government services,
such as trash collecting and down-
town parking.
"The more of this stuff that gets
outside of the sphere of govern-
ment, the better off we will be,"
Contaxes said.
While no Libertarian candidate
has ever received more than 200
votes in a city election, Contaxes
said this is changing.
"In this area, third party candi-
dates are grabbing more and more
of a share of the electorate," Con-
taxes said. "I like to think that I
could win."
Nicolas, who is 21, will receive
his master's degree in public policy
from the University this May. His
academic concentration is primarily
economic forecasting. He has been
attending City Council meetings
and Democrat caucuses regularly
for the past eight months.
Both Nicolas and Mogdis said
students should pay more attention
to Ann Arbor city government.
Mogdis said he has voted in fa-
vor of allowing special exception
use permits for Greek houses and
co-ops as a member of the Planning
Commission.
