1- The Michigan Daily - Tuesday, January 21, 1997 NATION/WORLD CLINTON C antmd from Page IA "There is work to do that government alone cannot do," Clinton said. The system should be changed, Clinton said, "so that the voice of the people will always speak louder than the din of narrow interest.' ,Clinton will come forth with specific proposals today when he is scheduled to Cddress the Democratic National Committee as it installs a new chair, Colorado Gov. Roy Romer. Clinton also is expected to open his battle against a balanced budget amendment to the Constitution. Clinton promised a cleaner environ- ment and more educational opportuni- ties so that "the doors of higher educa- tion will be open to all." Republicans generally praised Clinton's speech, though some ques- tioned his sincerity. Rep. Bob Livingston (R-La.), chair of the House Appropriations Committee, was measured in his reac- tion. "I think he certainly gave a Republican-oriented speech, but time will tell whether or not he means it or it was rhetoric;',he said. The carefully executed formalities on the steps of the Capitol contrasted the confused but determined citizens who huddled on the surrounding grounds, some of whom had been there as early as the pre-dawn hours. They traded tick- ets for a better view of the ceremonies, fought for seats and scrambled for last- minute commemorative buttons. Although the weather had warmed considerably since the weekend's festiv- ities began Friday, the cold was more than California-native Tim Rezendes was used to. The three-hour wait with his children was worth the chill, Rezendes said. "It doesn't happen every day. And even though it does happen every four years, not everyone gets to participate," he said. Americans gathered across town for public and private parties before yester- day's events. "All you have to do is look up at the Capitol at night - for some reason it was even shinier than usual," said U.S. Rep. Sander Levin (D-West Bloomfield). While some have speculated that Clinton's $44-million second inaugural isn't as grand as his first, others insist the enthusiasm is just more focused this time. "(This time) I know what the heck's going on," said U.S. Rep. Bart Stupak (D-Menominee). Many spectators said they appreciat- ed Clinton's message of hope and responsibility. Clinton paid special trib- ute to Martin Luther King Jr. in his speech, calling the activist's dream the "American dream." The inauguration festivities coincided with the national holiday commemorating King. "I thought it was phat," said Megan Geary, a junior at Catholic University in Washington, D.C., who attended the swearing-in ceremony. "I liked the part about Martin Luther King, too." , Kristina Nielson, another Catholic University junior, said she enjoyed "being a part of history." Spectators expressed skepticism NATIONAL f /S Gm"gnch scheduled for re riinmd WASHINGTON - Rep. Newt Gingrich (R-Ga.), a historian who has boasted that he is a "transformational figure," is poised to make history today by becoming the first House speaker disciplined by a voie of the House. Shortly after the House goes into session at noon, Rep. Nancy Johnson (K Conn.), chair of the House ethics committee, is to call up a resolution that woul adopt the ethics panel's recommendation that the House reprimand Gingrich anp,1 order him to pay $300,000 toward the costs of the committee's investigation ofhim'. Gingrich agreed to the penalty in December as part of a deal in which he admit- ted his guilt to modified charges of breaking House rules -- essentially a plea-bar - gain agreement. Under House rules, there will be an hour of debate, 30 minutes each for the Republicans and Democrats. Johnson will manage the GOP's time and the Democrats' time will be controlled by Rep. Benjamin Cardin (Md.), his party's top ethics panel member. The speaker does not plan to address the House, according to spokesperson Lauren Maddox. He is to speak to House Republicans at a closed-door meeting this morning., Gingrich need not be present in the chamber to be reprimanded. A simple major's ity vote is required to impose the punishment. Under the chambers rules, law- makers may try to change the penalty to make it either more or less severe. r SARA STILIMAN/Daily The Metaphorical Bridge to the 21st Century was erected as part of the day's cel- ebrations. People were encouraged to attach their dreams and wishes to the wall. about the displayed comradery of Democrats and Republicans, as mem- bers of both parties came together for the ceremony. "I think it was a show tactic," Geary said. Nielson said she found the biparti- sanship pretentious. "It's irritating because you know they're going to bat- tle for the next four years." Hundreds of thousands of people lined Pennsylvania and Constitution avenues to catch a glimpse of the presi- dential motorcade and to cheer those marching in the 116-band parade. The 87-member Carthage High School Band of Smith County, Tenn., marched yesterday, at the invitation of Vice President Gore's wife, Tipper Gore. Carthage is the vice president's hometown. Family members of the band staked out their seats six hours before the parade started. "We've been excited for months," said Liz Schafer, mother of the band's drum major. "We even got invited to Al Gore's home here and he and Tipper were right there shaking hands." Not everyone in the crowd came to enjoy the view - some came to spread a message of their own. About 75 anti- abortion protesters secured spots along the parade route and hoisted large signs bearing graphic photographs of aborted fetuses. Judy Dick, a protestor and a resident of Pittsburgh, Pa., said the venue was ideal to spread her group's message. She said the president has to be made aware of important issues, even on days of celebration. - The Associated Press contributed to this report. Schizophrenia linked to nicotine WASHINGTON -Scientists have located a gene that may increase the risk of inheriting schizophrenia - a finding that could also explain why many schizophrenics chain smoke. Essentially, nicotine appears to over- ride briefly a brain defect characteristic of the devastating mental illness, pro- viding frenzied patients a few minutes of calm, researchers report in today's edition of Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences. "Schizophrenics are the most heavy smokers of any psychotic patients," said Dr. Robert Freedman of the Denver Veterans Affairs Medical Center. "They had discovered this (effect) before we had, and it had been overlooked as a clue to the biology of schizophrenia." At issue is the inability of many schizophrenics to filter out unneces- sary sights, sounds and other stimuli - that tapping tree branch or the refriger- ator hum that healthy people can ignore - so they essentially suffer informa- tion overload. Freedman and colleagues at the University of Colorado discovered thA this trait is inherited. And they linked a gene that appears responsible for that to a brain receptor that helps filter inf6p mation, a receptor that can be stimulates" ed by nicotine. Some 4 million Americans suffer from schizophrenia Trial for du Pont to t begin today 4 MEDIA, Pa. - One of the richest murder defendants in U.S. history goes on trial today in a case that will deter- mine not whether John du Pont sh* wrestler David Schultz, but whether he was sane when he did it. But legal insanity goes much further than proving du Pont suffered from delusions of being the Dalai Lama and Jesus Christ. The defense must con- vince the jury that his mental illness -- paranoid schizophrenia - made du Pont unable to recognize that pulling the trig- ger was wrong.

The celebrations in Washington this week were for the volunteers and cam- paign workers as much as for the candi- dates, said U.S. Rep. Bart Stupak (D- Menominee). "This is more a celebration for them," Stupak said. "The entire Michigan delegation has pulled together unlike every other state," said Debbi Dingell, wife of U.S. U .3 1, - y , l Don't Panic!!

John Dingell (D-Dearborn) and chair of the unofficial Michigan Inaugural Ball. Michigan lawmakers and con- stituents put on their best clothes last night and headed for one of the 14 offi- cial inaugural balls. Michigan visitors joined with natives from Iowa, Indiana, Illinois, Minnesota and Wisconsin to party at a Midwest inaugural ball at the Air and Space Museum. On a whirlwind tour of the inaugural balls, the vice president, the president and the first lady made an appearance at the Midwest Ball just before 9 p.m. The first couple danced to Natalie Cole's "Unforgettable" and thanked Midwest patrons for their support dur- ing the campaign season.

While the president's visit at the ball was expected, some attendees had a few surprises. "We were kind of expecting to get more for our money," said Katie Grause, a student at Indiana University. Grause said she was surprised that food and drink weren't included with her $164 ticket. U.S. Rep. Lynn Rivers (D-Ann Arbor), recently elected to her second term in the House, said her husband enjoys the big social events more than she does. "I really enjoy the swearing-in," Rivers said. Newly elected U.S. Rep. Debbie Stabenow (D-Lansing) experienced the inauguration from a different side this year. "Before I was one of the crowd, now I'm hosting one of the events," Stabenow said. Stabenow said she was very excited about experiencing the fanfare of the swearing-in ceremony and the balls. Visitors met with representatives, senators and delegates from other states during the inaugural weekend. In addition, displays in heated tents were set up throughout the weekend along the Capitol Mall. Crossing a imock "Bridge to the 21st Century,", people pasted up messages of advice and hope for the next presidency. "These are not partisan events," said Levin, at a breakfast he co-hosted with brother U.S. Rep. Sander Levin (D- Bloomfield Hills). "They're celebrating a system that works." Michigan Republicans were harder to find on the Hill this weekend, but were by no means invisible. Some made the trip for events like "Planet Republican," hosted by U.S. Sen. Spencer Abraham (R-Mich.). Matt Potts, a member of the University's chapter of the College Republicans, said that although the GOP contingency was quieter this time, Republicans still managed to keep a sense of humor with events like the "Mourning" on the morning of Clinton's second inauguration. Members of the University's chapter of the College Democrats came to Washington to get in on any activities they could. Members said they enjoyed access to many of the events. HE AA Korean pres, to address apposition SEOUL, South Korea -- In a dra- matic turnabout, South Korean President Kim Young Sam agreed to meet opposition leaders today to seek a compromise on how to stem spiraling national protests and costly work stop- pages caused by his party's controver- sial labor law. But it remained unclear whether Kim's meeting with his erstwhile polit- ical rivals - Kim Dae Jung of the National Congress for New Politics and Kim Jong Pil of the United Liberal Democrats - would placate workers and resolve the month-long labor crisis. "This is a very important turning point;' said Choi Jang Jip, Korea University professor of political sci- ence. "President Kim took the wrong course in favor of big business, ignor- ing the needs of the majority of the people. He has finally realized how strong the criticism is of him:' The potential breakthrough came as union members returned to their jobs yesterday after three weeks of strikes ' ' :: that had shut down such mighty indus- trial machines as Hyundai Motor to. and Daewoo Shipbuilding --- costing the economy more than $3 billion. * tjo Kim had earlier refused to meet wi his political rivals or review revisions fo the measure, which his ruling New Korea Party rammed through in a National Assembly session on Dec. 26'. Belgrade court n hands vague ruling BELGRADE, Yugoslavia -A cou* ruling threw into doubt yesterday whether opponents of Serbian President Slobodan Milosevic will take over Belgrade's city government, car- rying out last Tuesday's ruling by an electoral commission upholding the results of November's voting. A municipal court in the Serbian capital refused to'render a quick deci- sion on two challenges to the commis- sion's ruling that the opposition coal tion had won control of the city count in elections held Nov 17. - Compiled from Daily wire reports.
