Students will have a chance to
get involved with 20 community
service projects this week as Project
SERVE honors student volunteers
with its third annual SERVE Week,
which began yesterday.
The service projects will be con-
ducted by 12 different campus
groups, not all of which are service-
oriented.
"It's neat that it's not just com-
munity service groups that are in-
volved," Project SERVE Director
Anita Bohn said. "We also have
groups such as the Hindu Student
Council and the Minority Nurses
Student Association, and other
groups who aren't traditionally in-
volved in community service."
Bohn said SERVE Week is an
attempt to focus the attention of the
campus on volunteer work for one
week.
She said this objective would be
accomplished in three ways: by di-
rect service actions, fundraising and
recognition of those students already
involved in volunteer work.
Jen Bastress, Internal vice-chair
of the Project SERVE board, said
SERVE Week is a great way to uti-
lize the service network on campus.
"It's a time when all the service
groups on campus can come to-
gether, and that's not something they
many students and faculty do not re-
alize the amount of service work
students are actually doing on cam-
pus.
"You hear so many negative
things about college students, but
there are a lot of amazing things go-
ing on in the Ann Arbor-Ypsilanti
area that we should really be proud
of," she said.
The week started with a clean-up

The Silver Wings Society will
also sponsor a clean-up of the Huron

Bohn said volunteers were able
to pull "a tremendous amount of
junk" out of the river last year, in-
cluding a few shopping carts.
Other projects include a canned

Project SERVE is sponsoring a
recognition reception at the Union
on Tuesday for any students in-

kind, regardless of whether or not
they participated in SERVE Week,
Bohn said.
Bohn said she expects between
800-1000 people to participate in the
activities this year and hopes that
many more will get involved.

the detail commander.
Both the police and the Univer-
sity community made preparations
throughout the day for Saturday
night. Police advised shop owners
to stop selling alcohol two hours
before the game, and they took
down the traffic light at the inter-
section of South University and
Church Street early in the afternoon
to prevent injury in the event that
people started hanging from the
wires.
The University arranged several
viewing areas to provide students
with an alternative to fraternity
parties and bars, but few actually
used them.
While 150 people showed up to
cheer on the Wolverines at the Uni-
versity Club in the Union, which
had room for 300, only a handful of
students took advantage of the ac-
commodations in the Tennis and
Track Building. This facility was
set up to hold 1,000.
"I'd like it better if there were
more people here, said University
student Patrick Lee at the Tennis
and Track Building. "Maybe it's
just too far away."
Police said they will be prepared
to handle crowds again Monday
night following a Michigan victory
over Duke.

through increased economic reforms
MOSCOW (AP) - President demanding that Yeltsin relinquish the bloc included a majority of
Boris Yeltsin said yesterday he will some powers and ease the hardship lawmakers, but that could not be
fight efforts in Russia's parliament
to trim his powers and will use his
full authority to press ahead with
painful economic reforms.
"Only one way can exist today -
the continuation of radical reforms,"
he told a gathering of supporters.
His comments came on the eve of
a crucial session of the Congress of
People's Deputies that will debate a
new constitution to replace the
political system left by the
Communists. Parliament leaders are
caused by his market reforms.
Barely four months after
presiding over the death of the
Soviet Union, Yeltsin could face a
political firestorm during the session
of the 1,048-member body, which
convenes today in the Grand
Kremlin Palace.
But a key. Yeltsin aide, State
Secretary Gennady Burbulis, said
pro-reform groups agreed tentatively
yesterday to form a parliamentary
bloc to defend the presidenit. He said
confirmed independently.
In return, Yeltsin agreed to
consult with the bloc in making
government appointments and
formulating policy. That is the
closest he has come to joining a
political organization since quitting
the Communist Party in 1990.
Acknowledging criticism from
lawmakers, Yeltsin said he would
continue to shuffle his Cabinet and
to make "partial corrections" in his
reforms, which sent prices soaring.
