NATION/WORLD The Michigan Daily - Thursday, March 27, 1997 - 5A i Palestine prote Sts peace eforts RAMALLAH, West Bank (AP) - Palestinians threw stones and burned American flags in the streets of the West Bank yesterday,. rejecting a new U.S. attempt to salvage the disintegrat- , Mideast peace process. "resident Clinton sent envoy Dennis Ross to try to stop the rioting and bloodshed that started after Israel broke ground for construction of a Jewish neighborhood in disputed east Jerusalem. But Palestinians have grown suspi- cious of America's motives in peacemak- ing, because it blocked U.N. Security Council censure of the housing project. upporters of Yasser Arafat led tests here and in the West Bank city of Bethlehem, hurling stones and bot- tles at Israeli soldiers. Soldiers respond- ed with tear gas and rubber bullets, injuring 20 Palestinians. Israel demanded Ross tell Arafat to rein in the violence - both the daily rioting in the West Bank and terror attacks, such as a suicide bombing that killed three Israeli women at a Tel Aviv cafe Friday. OTerrorists will always have a griev- ance, (but) terrorism cannot exist in a vacuum, it needs a sponsoring govern- ment,' Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said at a conference on ter- roism. "They have chosen to use terror- ism as a weapon of political coercion." Israel also offered an incentive to the Palestinians, with Netanyahu aide David Bar-Illan suggesting in an inter- elmw with The Associated Press that ea might ease its closure of the West WALLENBERG Continued from Page IA said. "Unfortunately, this doesn't address the conceptual problem itself." Although the lecture received rave reviews from the audience, some stu- dents doubted the scale by which *kin's ideas might be implemented in cities. "I'd say that the scale he's talking about is a bit larger than what we're working with," Berry said, "but the underlying ideas are very functional." The Raoul Wallenberg Lecture series, an ongoing tradition of lectures involving "Architecture as a Humane Social Art," was founded in 1972 through contributions in Wallenberg's *mory., Wallenberg, who graduated from the University in 1935 with a degree in architecture, became a Swedish diplo- mat during World War 11 and saved thousands of Hungarian Jews from the terrors of Auschwitz. After his tragic death at a Soviet prison camp, a schol- arship fund and the lecture series in his name were established to promote the ideals he lived by. STUDY Continued from Page 1A cent of those surveyed plan to get a part-time job. LSA first-year student Katie Darner said she needed to work in the summer to help reduce her college costs. "I work two jobs in the summer," Damer said. "It's definitely always a con- cern." The University was more successful than other public universities in admitting community-service-minded students. More than 85 percent of respondents had participated in volun- teer work in the past year, while 76.8 percent of students at other public uni- versities did community service. Darner said volunteering was' a helpful experience. "It made me thankful for what I have," Darner said. "It gave me a new perspective on things." In alcohol statistics, more University incoming first-year students reported having drunk hard liquor and wine, 59.8 percent, than beer, 53 percent. However, Mary Lou Antieau, assis- tant to the vice-president for student affairs, said students only had to drink once in the previous year to answer yes. Also, Antieau said many students drink very lightly to celebrate gradua- tion. "How many students had a glass of champagne after graduation?" Antieau said. These alcohol statistics fall in line with other public universities that par- ticipated in the study. These institutions reported that slightly more students, 56.1 percent of respondents, reported drinking beer while 58 percent had drank liquor or wine. LSA first-year student Nikki Gunter was slightly surprised by the findings. "I would expect the beer to be higher than the liquor. It just seems more com- mon," Gunter said. Fitness also was important to this first-year class, with only 2.6 percent reporting that they did not exercise. More than half the class, 51.8 percent, said they spend greater than six hours per week exercising and playing sports. In addition to keeping fit, only 8.6 First-year students . 53 percent drank beer in the last year * 59.8 percent drank liquor or wine 8.6 percent smoke 51.8 percent spend more than .. six hours exercising or doing sports a week 87.8 percent participated in vol- unteer work percent reported smoking cigarettes. One of the more surprising statis- tics, according to Cherry Danielson, the graduate student research assistant who compiled the University data, was that 67 percent of the class report- ed they had spent no time playing video games last year. "This says these students don't have a lot of time,' Danielson said. Danielson was impressed overall with the responses overall. "The University really attracts quality students," Danielson said. "We were just a step ahead of other public Institu- tions."

Bank if Palestinian security officials resume cooperative efforts to block ter- rorist attacks on Israelis. Israel imposed the closure, which keeps tens of thou- sands of workers from jobs in Israel, after the bombing. The gap between Israelis and Palestinians appeared far more difficult to bridge than the last time Ross visited the region, when he brokered Israel's military withdrawal in January from most of the West Bank town of Hebron. "The tensions between the Palestinians and Israelis have reached a very, very serious level, said Edward Abington, the U.S. counsel-general in Jerusalem and unofficial ambassador to Arafat's self.-rule government In an AP interview, Abington said President Clinton sent Ross because communication between the Israelis and Palestinians was faltering and the "level of trust has gone down." "Everybody in the world who's worked for peace in the Middle East is concerned about this," Clinton said. 28 MEN'S SWIMMING & DIVINGN NCAA CHAMPIONSHIPS MINNEAPOLIS, MN, NOON-7:00 PM WOMEN'S TENNISN AT MIAMI, 100 PM MEN'S GOLFN TANGLEWOOD INTERCOLLEGIATE DALLAS, TX MEN'S BASEBALLN VS.
