"I wondered where the First Amendment stopped working for the Ann Arbor Tenants' Union board members," Stern said. "I felt like I was in preschool or kindergarten and they were telling me what was right or wrong." 'Perhaps (Stern) finally realized the conflict of interest that he had. ... I think it was smart of him.' - Pattrice Maurer Ann Arbor Tenants' Union director White House 'Eggsr Lady' pre ps for roll. Stern also said being one of the key people who drafts the MSA bud- get for next year would make it a conflict of interest for him to serve on AATU's board.

"I think it was smart of him." She said during Tuesday's meet- ing that Stern abandoned his duties to the tenants' union by taking the money allocated to AATU for his committee. "If you are a board member of a corporation, then it's not OK to make public statements against the cor- poration that wouldn't be in the best interest of the corporation," Maurer said. Stern also said he resigned be- cause of claims made by Maurer against him and because he said he is frustrated by the unprofessional nature of the tenants' union. Maurer said she does not know where Stern's charges of unprofessionalism come from.

SPECIAL STUDENT FLIGHTS THE WASHINGTON POST WASHINGTON - Job Descrip- tion: White House Egg Lady. Official Duties: Wandering the White House carrying a basket of wooden eggs and a pen to thrust at celebrities like Johnny Carson and Janet Reno for autographs. Favorite Accessories: A pastel Swatch watch dripping with tiny eggs and a silver bunny pin that was a Christmas gift from Bill and Hillary Clinton. Robyn Dickey, a.k.a. the Egg Lady, is director of special tours at the White House Visitors Office. Her duties include masterminding the tra- ditional White House Easter Egg Roll and Hunt to be held Monday. She keeps tabs daily on who comes through the executive mansion in case she wants to add an autograph to the stash of celebrity eggs that will be hidden on the South Lawn. Only bona-fide celebrities, say Oksana Baiul or Tom Selleck, are stalked by the brown-haired woman with the lilting Arkansas accent. She finds them all, be they astro- nauts or Dallas Cowboys, the Grate- ful Dead or Warren Christopher, as they tour the Blue Room or wait to meet with the president. She has even been known to leave a basket of eggs with a note in the Lincoln Bedroom asking famous overnight visitors to autograph them. (Barbra Streisand complied.) "I tell the people that this tradition is over 100 years old," said Dickey, who planned the Clinton campaign's Little Rock election-night events and earlier served as administrator of t Arkansas Governor's Mansion. " one has ever turned me down." Last year's egg hunt crowd of 40,000 inspired Dickey to go all out this year. She has amassed 2,000 of the coveted celebrity eggs, signed by the likes of Ron Howard and Harrison Ford. Bill and Hillary Clinton and Al and Tipper Gore each have signed 10 eggs. They will be mixed in the hu* with some of the 30,000 speckled pastel "Official White House Easter 1994" wooden eggs stamped with a likeness of the White House and the Clintons' signatures. Dickey also oversees the dyeing of 7,200 real eggs by the White House chef for an egg roll on the lawn. And she organized an East Wing exhibit of 51 eggs decorated by artists from ea* state and the District of Columbia. The exhibit will be part of White House public tours through April 11. Don't expect to find a Peace Treaty Egg. Dickey says she doesn't ap- proach world leaders as a rule. "That would be inappropriate. They don't know the tradition." Dickey says she received calls from frenzied parents last year askin her to identify illegible signatures 9 their kids' finds. Fortunately, celebrity eggs are numbered and there is a master list. 11 INCLUDES ROUNDTRIP AIRFARE, RDOM & BOARD, KOSHER MEALS & TOURS NEW WORK DEPARTURE ...

"We are going to be urging a reso- lution there. One thing I would stress is that we're consulting very closely with all the parties, including the Chinese, about the best way to en- courage the North Koreans to take the steps that the international commu- nity wants them to take." Han lined up his government with the United States in trying to pry open suspect North Korean nuclear sites. He said there were "some differences in emphasis" with China. Reporting to Christopher on talks in Japan and China, he said, "the Chinese have been emphasizing the importance of dialogue." The goal, he said, should be adoption of an "effective and realistic" resolution by the Security Council. President Clinton was briefed by his national security assistant, An- thony Lake, en route to a golf club outside San Diego. Lake said U.N. Ambassad Madeleine Albright was meeting wi Chinese, British, French and Russian diplomats in New York "to work through a resolution can take care of some of the Chinese concerns and still come up with a very firm interna- tional position." Lake said that could lead to "broad talks" with North Korea about its fu- ture and the nuclear issue. "Korea is a very serious issue but it is very impo* tant that we not overreact to Norte Korean rhetoric," he said. In fact, he said, North Korean state- ments have been less bellicose re- cently. "We simply have to be very firm and very steady and not overre. act," Lake said. "That's the course we're on. UNDERAGE Continued from page 1 tion is now more clearly stated in our law than ever," Prosecutor John O'Hair said yesterday. Michigan briefly tested an 18- year-old drinking age in the 1970s. The age to buy or drink alcohol has been 21 since 1978. Despite that, drinking remains widespread among teenagers and young adults. And drinking-related accidents remain common. Of the 625 people who died in alcohol-related crashes in Michigan in 1991, state police say 79 were be- tween the ages of 15 and 19. As part of a broad crackdown on underage drinking, the state Legisla- ture stiffened the penalties for youn drinkers and those who help them. O'Hair said his office and Wayne County police agencies plan to make sure the laws are strictly enforced this graduation season. Adults who aid underage drinking also may face prosecution under Michigan's existing laws on contrib- uting to the delinquency of minors. "The goals of our legislators is a noble one: to stop the perennial spring time story of bright and hopeful young graduates who die in car crashes," O'Hair said. "I fully expect local po- lice agencies in Wayne county to be very vigilant this prom and gradua- tion season to be sure that the laws . on underage drinking are strictly en- forced."
