2 - The Michigan Daily - Friday, March 28, 1997 NATION/WORLD Cultists, programmers die CULT Continued from Page 1 he had been "chosen" to deliver the news of the group's mass suicide to the world to draw attention to their spiritu- al beliefs. D'Angelo, who intends to talk to the media but has so far declined on Matzorkis's advice, has not repudiated any of the group's tenets, Matzorkis said, but rather told the software execu- tive he was sad that he could not join his fellow cultists on their journey to a bet- ter existence. After Matzorkis and D'Angelo drove down to Rancho Santa Fe Wednesday, D'Angelo entered the mansion and soon emerged looking "white as a sheet," Matzorkis recalled. It was Matzorkis who then placed the anonymous call to law enforcement officials advising them that they should check on the man- sion. At a news conference late yester- day afternoon, county authorities played an eerie videotape that showed the quiet scene of mass death as captured by a cameraman follow- ing sheriff's deputies through the mansion. The bodies were reposed on cots and white and blue metal bunkbeds. Their hair shorn in buzz cuts, the suicide vic- tims were dressed in untucked black long-sleeve shirts, loose black pants and black tennis shoes with a white stripe. Three-foot triangular purple cloth shrouds covered their faces and chests. The rooms appeared sterile and anti- septic, with few personal belongings visible except for the suitcases, neatly packed and in many instances placed at the foot of the bed or mattress. Officials said the suitcases contained mostly clothes. For some reason, the cultists were all found to have a five- dollar bill and some quarters in their pockets.

"Admissions needs to have more contact with other organizations on campus before admitting all of the people that they do.' Should a large first-year class materi- alize, Housing officials may permit some students to drop their leases with- out penalty, but may still be forced to use overflow triples. This practice generated significant student protest when it was implemented last year but is less contro- versial now. "At the beginning of the year, there were a lot of complaints' said Rochelle Woods, the resident director at West Quad. "But now people are used to it or have had a chance to move." While several students said they chose to live in a triple this year simply for its lower cost, LSA first-year student Joshua Mintz said the experience was a valuable part of his University education. "It's not so bad," he said."In fact, it sort of helped me manage everything better. I learned to manage space and live with people." While the University has not con- structed new residence halls since 1968, its housing office has managed to add residential space to the inventory over the past two years by recovering rooms in West Quad, Levy said. Lloyd- Winchell Hall had been on indefinite loan to academic departments, but is now again under the jurisdiction of University Housing. There is no definite plan for new resi- dence hall construction, though Housing has explored the idea of construction within the next decade, Levy said. "Whether you have a good or bad experience in the dorms, you get exposed to a lot of things. It's definitely impor- tant"said LSA first-year Rishi Moudgil.

Pastor Ed Krauss 663-5560 Ofical: nuclear reduction a danger WASHINGTON - The United States could wind up shifting the tar- gets of its nuclear weapons from mili- tary installations to huge civilian popu- lations if the nation continues to cut its strategic nuclear force, a chief steward of the U.S. stockpile warned yesterday. With a large nuclear force, the United States in the past has been confident it could deter aggression by aiming its thousands of warheads at noncivilian tar- gets -- bases, missile silos and military headquarters, said C. Paul Robinson, president of the Sandia National Laboratories, which are responsible for maintaining the U.S. arsenal. But if its strategic nuclear arsenal shrinks much further, the United States may begin to take the view of nations with smaller arsenals - that threaten- ing civilian targets is a surer way to frighten an opponent out of attacking, he said. In this way, a smaller nuclear force might paradoxically set the stage for a nuclear war with greater loss of human life. "To move lower would cause, first of all, a major change in your overall nuclear policy," Robinson told reporters in a breakfast meeting. James Earl Ray maintins innocence ATLANTA - Twenty-nine years after the death of the Rev. Martin Luther King Jr., the civil rights leader's son son met yesterday with a dying James Earl Ray. The two men shook hands,discussed Ray's health and touched on the los- ago excesses of former FBI director. Edgar Hoover. Then King, looking Ray in the eye, slid ever so gently toward the heart of the matter. He asked ,"Did you kill my father?" "No, no;' a frail Ray said. "I didn't." Ray said more, some of it rambling, some not comprehensible. "Sometimes these questions are difficult to answer and you have to make a personal evalu- ation and ... maybe come to a con sion, he said. P AROUND THE NATI Cancer institute reverses decision WASHINGTON - The National Cancer Institute reversed itself and recom- mended that women in their 40s undergo routine mammogram screening yestcr- day, a decision it hopes will lay to rest one of the most fractious national debates in recent medical history. The institute, part of the federal government's National Institutes of Health, s women of average risk should by screened every one to two years beginning at age 40, and women whose risk is higher - such as those with a family history of the disease or a genetic predisposition for it - should consider having mammograms even earlier. President Clinton, whose mother died of breast cancer, said the recommenda- tions "give clear, concise guidance to women in our national fight against breast cancer." He announced a series of steps aimed at making mammograms more read- ily available to the targeted age group. The institute's announcement followed a Sunday announcement by the American Cancer Society urging women in their 40s to have the procedure annu- ally, a change from its previous recommendation of one-to-two years. The insti and the cancer society - regarded as the nation's two most influential cancer p51- icymaking groups - issued a joint statement yesterday saying their advice should be regarded as compatible. AROUND THE WORLD Gingrich visits China, minus gloves BEIJING - And now for the main event. As Vice President Al Gore pre- pared to leave China after a polite visit reflecting the Clinton adminis- tration's policy of "constructive engagement" with the world's most populous country, House Speaker Newt Gingrich entered the ring with his gloves off. Gingrich, who arrived here yesterday night, set the tone for his three-day sor- tie into China with a speech delivered earlier in the day in Hong Kong, vow- ing that he will not "remain silent about the lack of basic freedom - speech, religion, assembly, the press - in China" Although his visit promises to be much more contentious than Gore's, for many in the Chinese leadership it is more important. It was the Republican Party sweep of Congress in 1994 and Gingrich's elevation to the speaker's post that most upset China's conventional wisdom about American politics. The downward spiral of Sino-U.S. relations tVt began then culminated in the mility standoff in the Taiwan Strait last spring. India, Pakistan to resume lks NEW DELHI - India and Pakistan, archenemies capable of making nuclear weapons, are about to sit down and c for the first time in three years. The resumption of bilateral talks between the South Asian nations, which begin today with a meeting of foreign-ministry officials here in India's capital, has raised hopes of reducing the hostility that has resulted in three wars since British-ruled India was partitioned in 1947. The unremitting tensions have prompted two of the world's bigger and poorer countries to maintain large, co* armed forces, slowing development. - Compiledfrom Daily wire reports. t .-}.. r n' } . 2 re WASHINGTON DC The Graduate School of Political Management GW is an equal opportunity/affirmative action institution 11114111INI Iliii' ACOUSTIC JUNCTION "Add it Up" "Blister in the Sun" "Gone Daddy Gone" VIOLENT FEMM~ES with Phil Cody .Pf fEL 1sdI .7 IHILL~ AUD A U of M Office of Major Events Produiction The Michigan Daily (ISSN 0745.967) is published Monday through Friday during the fall and winter terms by students at the University of Michigan.
