01 Page 2-The Michigan Daily- Thursday, April 9, 1992 MARCH Continued from page 1 I wanted to help women 'Take Back the Night,"' Ilg said. "But after dis- cussing it, I realized the march is a time for women to do it themselves. It is not men who have to worry about walking alone at night." Cass said, "This is not to say that men can't play a role. We're not a big male-bashing group. That is not what we are all about. We are about empowerment and carving out a space for women with men's help." Ilg said that he became involved with Take Back the Night because as a SAPAC volunteer, he was shocked by the magnitude of the problem of sexual assault. "I have only heard of four sexual assaults on campus this year, yet three in 10 women will be assaulted. It is just something you don't hear about," Ilg said. "I see the look in my closest friend's eyes when she wants to go somewhere, but can't because she has no one to walk her," Ilg said. "I want to make it alright for her to do whatever she wants." LSA senior Roseanne Wild said marching in last year's rally was an empowering experience. "Even though I went alone, there didn't seem to be any strangers." 01 Jennifer Silverberg/DAILY GRAPHIC A fistful of nickels Michigan Democratic Party Chairman Gary Corbin grabs a handful of nickels yesterday, saying that Gov.

Yeltsin's economic program has caused prices to soar and "pushed millions of people into poverty," Vorontsov said. At the start of the session in the Grand Kremlin Palace, Yeltsin left his chair, directly under a huge Russian flag that covers a Communist-era portrait of Lenin. Aides said he was attending an im- portant meeting of Russia's consti- tutional commission in another wing of the former czar's palace. But lawmakers voted 606-149 to ask him to come back to hear their criticism. With a slight frown, he sat for more than an hour as a parade of deputies denounced soaring prices, poor medical care, rising crime, re- liance on foreign aid and the Cabinet that Yeltsin appointed without leg- islative approval. "The last time the formation of a government was regulated by laws like ours was under Mussolini, when fascists came to power in Italy," lawmaker Sergei Polozkov said to rousing applause. That prompted Yeltsin to stalk off the platform, while Polozkov continued speaking to him. "Boris Nikolayevich, we ask you to leave the post of prime minister. You have enough to handle with the military and other matters," the irate deputy said. Yeltsin is prime minister and de- fense minister as well as president, but he is under mounting pressure to give up the extra posts. 0i University of Michigan B Men's Glee Club Jerry Blackstone, Director 132nd Annual Spring Concert with Bob McGrath of Sesame Street and the 1967 Around-the-World Glee Club.

Wahbeh said he received a cable from PLO headquarters in Tunis, capital of Tunisia, saying Arafat "has only minor bruises. ... He's in good shape." Saeed Kamal, the PLO represen- tative in Cairo, Egypt, said three of five crewmembers aboard Arafat's Soviet-built An-26 aircraft were killed when it went down near a PLO training camp at Sarra on Tuesday. Wahbeh said Arafat was accompanied by 13 bodyguards. Arafat was flying from Sudan to Tunis, where he was scheduled to preside at a meeting of the PLO's 80-member Central Council today. PLO officials said he was on his way to Tripoli, Libya's capital, yes- terday night and would still go to Tunis for today's meeting. Bassam Abu-Sharif, Arafat's chief adviser in Tunis, told AP Network News that the PLO asked former President Carter to intercede with the White House to get U.S. officials to provide satellite data to help search for Arafat. He would not say directly whether such help was received, but that the American "good will to- ward Arafat will definitely help the peace process." U.S. officials said they were still considering Carter's request when Arafat was found. "We were not in- volved in any effort to help locate the plane," said Margaret Tutwiler, spokesperson for the State Department. Any U.S. help for the PLO would stir controversy with Israel, which considers the PLO a terror group dedicated to the Jewish state's de- struction. The United States long banned official contacts with the PLO, but began a dialogue in late 1988 on grounds Arafat had accepted Israel's right to exist. Contacts were severed again after Arab terrorists attacked an Israeli beach in June 1990. Hanan Ashrawi, spokesperson for Palestinians during peace negotia- tions with Israel, also asked for U.S. help in a telephone call to Edward P. Djerejian, assistant secretary of state for the Near East, U.S. officials said. He asked the U.S. embassies in Cairo and Tunis to provide assis- tance, they said. Capt. Adnan Beleidy of the Palestine Liberation Army, the PLO's military arm, said in Tripoli that a Libyan air force plane found the survivors at dawn near Sarra, about 900 miles southeast of Libya's capital. Arab east Jerusalem exploded in celebration yesterday at news that Arafat was alive. Thousands of Palestinians hugged, shouted and clapped in the streets. One avenue was almost carpeted with candy thrown in jubilation. London$ * Paris $655* Madrid $715* Munich $655* Zurich $715* *Fares are roundtrip from Detroit. Fares start, April 1 thru June 15.
