2A - The Michigan Daily - Tuesday, September 3, 1996 NATION/WORLD MOVE-IN Continued from Page 1A (before school started)," Levy said. Rooms unclaimed by today will be legally available for re-assignment, which should help alleviate the space sgnieze. Those who have not been givdn rooms will get first priority when th two-week housing freeze on vacan- ciesends, Levy said. 1kommunication troubles have also plagued the lounge lizards. Lounges are notequipped with telephones, so the stidents can't call home without going toa pay phone and have had to walk to many offices for information they could have easily gotten by phone. "I ordered a fridge and I can't give the vendor a phone number so he can arrange to deliver it," said Lindsay Williams, a School of Music first-year student. "We can't even order pizza eas- ily." The majority of students moving in spent their time racing to find lofts and plugging in stereos. They faced only minor problems, officials said. Move-in for residents of the Hill dorms was staggered between two days, but traffic was still heavy, Levy said. "At some point, you just run out of road space." The situation at Mary Markley Hall, with 94 percent of its residents in the entering class, was chaotic when resi- dents tried to park. "People were parked everywhere - in the handicapped spots, on the grass, and on the sidewalk," said Jason Perla, an LSA first-year student. Sheryl Stevenson, East Quad's stu- dent coordinator, said residents moved in with a minimum of fuss. "We had the usual number of stu- dents not knowing their way around," she said. ;Ann Arbor Art Center °KChris Triola "Galerie Jacques Institute for Humanities - Kempf House Kerrytown Concert House Made By Hand Gallery Pierpont Commons Washtenaw Council for the Arts Wooden Bird Rec Sports Sports p4 Recycle Ann Arbor Persp. p3 SOS Crisis Center Persp. p3 Arts p8 Student Activities and Leadership News p5 Arts p8 Students With Disabilities Persp. p2 Arts p8 UM Navy ROTC Sports p2 Arts p8 University Club Arts p9 Arts p8 University Musical Society Arts p6, Persp. p6 Arts p8 U-M School of Music Arts p7 Arts p8 U-M Waste Management Univ. plO Arts p8 Arts p8 Arts p8 Michigan Book & Supply Michigan Union Bookstore North Campus Commons Bookstore Ulrich's Sports p2; Arts p2; Univ. pl1; Persp. p2,4; News p21 Ann Arbor p12; Univ. p6,12; Persp. p8; News p22 News p24 Sports plO; Ann Arbor p7; Arts p7; Univ. p3; Persp. p3; News p6,14 David Brownell Violins Grooveyard Herb David Guitar Overture Audio PJ's Records Rit Drums Tower Records Wazoo Records Arts p8 Persp. p8 Persp. p8 Persp. p8 News p8 Univ. pl2 Ann Arbor p7; News p7 Ann Arbor p6; Arts p9 Adrian's T-shirts Fantasy Attic First Position Dancewear Footprints Jnk,inc.

"We consider this the minimum budget we can accept for quality commitment at this University." Michigan Student Assembly President Fiona Rose endorsed Machen's recommendation. She said she supported the allocation of funds in a way that allows for the maintenance of the current quality of University programs, while preventing degradation of services. "It makes sense educationally and fiscally," Rose said. Machen said this year's low increase reflects lower inflation rates and the increase in state funding. He said there is no proposed increase for any of the academic fees. Machen said tuition fees must be raised each year to accommodate the costs that also rise each year. He said higher operating costs and building construction costs contribute to the need for higher tuition. In addition to the small tuition increase, the allocation to financial aid programs for students increased by 9 percent in the general fund budget. Machen said the increased financial aid allocation will be distributed as a total student support program, aiding both undergraduate and graduate stu- dents, and going to both merit- and need-based aid programs. "The increase in financial aid is a recognition of the problems students are having in funding education," Machen said. "We want to ensure all Michigan residents have adequate financial aid."' IRAQ Continued from Page IA action." Clinton and other administration officials spent the day in intense tele- phone and personal conversations with U.S. allies. But the results of their labors were mixed, according to reports from the Middle East and Europe. British and Saudi officials were reported to have given a green light for U.S. military action. The Saudi acquies- cence was seen as particularly important, since a U.S.-European air wing enforc- ing the "no-fly" zone over southern Iraq territory is based on Saudi soil and could play a role in a retaliatory attack. The aircraft carrier USS Carl Vinson also has taken position in the northern Persian Gulf along with several cruisers and destroyers armed with Tomahawk cruise missiles. On the other side of Iraq, U.S. planes are based at Incirlik, Turkey. A second carrier, the USS Enterprise, is standing by in the eastern Mediterranean, U.S. officials said. Over the weekend the Air Force also moved four B-52 bombers to Guam. But Jordan's King Hussein told Gen. John Shalikashvili, chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, in Aqaba that out- siders should not meddle in raqgs busi- ness, according to Jordan's state-run Petra news agency. Officials in France and Russia, both traditional defenders of Iraqi sovereignty, also were reported to be reluctant to join any allied mili- tary action on Iraq.

Banks crack down on check fraud It might seem like fighting a tank with a pea shooter, but bankers across the country are trying to solve an $800 million problem with a $2.50 product. In Texas, Nevada, Arizona and more than a dozen other states, bankers are fighting check fraud by equipping tellers with ink pads so they can affix the thumbprint of customers who aren't regular patrons of the bank to the backs of checks they cash. The idea has drawn remarkable inter- est because banks are losing millions each year to organized crime and gang members who steal checks or duplicate payroll checks and then cash them. These crimes cost banks $815 mil- lion in 1993 alone, more than 12 times what they lost in robberies, according to the latest American Bankers Association statistics. "This is a war for us," said Jerome Evans, executive vice president with First National Bank of Maryland. Banks aren't the only ones who pay TWA crash probe losing steam WASHINGTON - Crash investigators' initial optimism is waning that wreck- age from TWA Flight 800 will yield definitive proof of what downed the Boeing 747, and law enforcement officials now believe that if a bomb or missile destroyed the plane a case may have to be built without any conclusive physical evidence of blast damage. After six weeks of tests, computer simulations and a partial reconstruction of t jumbo jetliner, probers have been able to reach just one definitive conclusion: location of the blast that knocked the plane out of the sky. About 70 percent of the aircraft has been recovered from the ocean floor off Long Island so far, mostly from a few debris mounds that investigators had hoped would yield the strongest clues. Those examining the wreckage have found two tiny traces of explosive material, but say they are inconclusive. What continues to elude them are signs of metal damage indicative of a bomb or missile blast, or actu al bomb parts. The case's chief law enforcement official said in an interview last week that criminal investigators may have to wait for the discovery of additional samples of explosive residue and rely on surveillance, interviews and other intelligence work before they can declare the July 17 downing of Flight 800, in which 230 peo4 died, a criminal act. for check fraud. Consumers do too - in the form of higher fees charged by banks, said William Gearin, head of Financial Institution Security Consulting Service, a Worcester, Mass.,r consulting company. "This is a serious problem, and it s going to get worse'" he said. "Wha really driving the statistics upward is counterfeit checks." New links made in Alzheimer's disease A close new look into blood chem istry, brain cells and the damage done by oxygen may help explain why heree - ity is so important in Alzheimer's d- ease, a research team in New yoa reported yesterday. In studies of a blood protein called "apoE" the Rockefeller University team found that in addition to its known role in moving cholesterol around, apoL plays an unexpected role in shielding cells from chemical damage. Different formsof apoE may explaia why some get Alzheimer's early in life , $.., .

Even more humiliating for the Communists, the defeat came in a place they counted as theirs. Saratov, a large- ly rural region straddling the Volga River 420 miles southeast of Moscow, had given big pluralities last December to Communists now in Parliament and to Communist Party leader Gennady Zyuganov in the race against Yeltsin. Presidential advisers hailed the result as a victory not only for an energetic, can-do reformer but for a master Kremlin strategy to be adapted for Yeltsin-backed incumbents in the rac s to come. "This election is a ... showc ..e ... of political cooperation between tie regions and the center," said Kreml strategist Vyacheslav Nikonov. steered clear of politics and concentr, - ed on solving real problems."
