leen training the people perpetrating those atroc-
ities against them," LSA senior Deepak Kulkarni
said. He added "that set otf a bomb in my head."
The protest is an annual event organized by the
group School of Americas Watch. It is held on or
around the anniversary of the Nov. 16, 1989
killings of six Jesuit priests in El Salvador, which
he United Nations has attributed to 19 Salvado-
an officers.
.Father Ray Bourgeois, a Catholic priest, found-
ed the organization. He blames the schools for
atrocities committed by its graduates.
Maj. Gen. John LeMoyne, the commanding
general at Fort Benning responded to the criti-
cism. "I'd characterize it as false and as propa-
ganda. Roy's thesis is based on emotion and
falsehood.''
The Department of Defense plans to close the
school on Dec. 15, replacing it with the Western
emisphere Institute for Security Cooperation,
hich is to be jointly run by the Department of
Defense and the Organization of American
States.

Bourgeouis has claimed the closing is essen-
tially only a name change for the school.
When she heard about the closing, LSA junior
Haruna Madono said she "was in shock ... I'm
not very surprised by what the U.S. government
is doing." She added that she was "very aware
that the U.S. government and our system has
some flaws ... I think there's hope. You've got to
keep working for peace"
The students who were arrested were issued
"ban and bar" letters that state they can not
step onto the fort for five years. If they do so,
they face five months in jail and/or a S 15,000
fine.
As to whether she would participate in the
protest again, Madono responded, "I would like
to," but added that she would likely protest out-
side of the fort, fearing the consequences men-
tioned in the letter.
Some of the other University students arrested
were Rackham student Gary Brouhard, LSA
juniors Lara Zador and Caricia Catalani, RC
junior Ann Ellingson, LSA junior Jay Sosa and
LSA and engineering senior Bob Murillo.

Ohio State clinches

battle by

BATTLE
Continued from Page 1
she said. "The Wolverines are great and
need to be great across the board arid
show their spirit and support not just in
football but also in things like this."
Columbus Red Cross spokesman
Jim Tinker said he agreed that the
underlying theme of the battle goes far
deeper than the intense campus rivalry.
"These campuses are made up of a
lot of people who are willing to give
an hour out of their life and a pint out
of their body to help someone," Tinker
said.
Tinker said 19 percent-of the blood
that the Red Cross collects comes
from the those between the ages of 17
and 22. Collegiate blood competitions
like the Michigan-Ohio State battle
bring out many first-time donors.
"Of the 60 percent of those eligible
to donate blood, only 5 percent actual-
ly do. That means 95 percent of the
people who could donate blood never

pints
do. And there's no substitute for
blood," he said. -
Tinker joked that the blood at'tle
was going better for Ohio State than
the football game.
Alpha Phi Omega program co-chair
Sean Meyers, an Engineering sopho-
more, said he was impressed by the
donor turnout and felt the ability to
make appointments on-line was key to
the event's success.
"The day after the e-mail telling,
people they could sign up on-line, the-
Website almost crashed. It played a
large role in getting us as many pints
as we did," Meyers said.
Raising awareness and accessi-
bility were important to the battle
as well. "But it's hard to say tq
someone what it feels like to know
you could save three lives just by
giving a pint of blood," Meyers
said. "People don't know because
they're afraid to try, but once you
try, I can't think of a better way to
spend that time."

RECOUNT
Cattinued from Page 1
The hearing dealt only glancingly with major
issues that both sides have been fighting about so
hard in other courts and in public statements.
But oral arguments in an appeals court are
rarely a comprehensive guide to justices' think-
ing. In this case the court is being asked to rule
whether the manual recounts requested by
Democrats should continue, how the counts
spould be done and whether those results should
be included in the final state tally.
After the hearing, (Sore advisers said privately
they were pleased by the tone of the justices'
questions and the fact that recounts could contin-
ue at least for now.
When surrounded by reporters outside the
urt building. Gore spokesman Doug Hattawav
was circumspect.
. We're not attempting to (ivine the outcome
based on the questions," he said. "Like everyone
else, we'll have to wait to see what they say."
The Republican legal tearn cxprssvd private

concerns about what they perceived as tough
questioning and pondered options that could
include an emergency appeal to the U.S.
Supreme Court if necessary.
Carvin, buffeted by questions from Justice
Barbara Pariente, appeared to suggest a GOP
fallback position if the court rules against Bush.
The law, he said in the hearing, "makes it clear
that the federal courts - federal law will not
allow this court or the Florida Legislature to
change the rules of the election after the election
has taken place."
The justices were vigorous questioners from
the outset, none more so than Wells, the 61-year-
old Democrat who presided.
Over and over, he asked at what point the state
would risk missing the chance to cast its 25 elec-
toral votes. Sometimes, he punctuated the ques-
tion with outstretched arms.
Both Bush and Gore need those 25 votes to
win the White House.
Wells' questions at one point sketched a sce-
nario in which recounts would continue,. perhaps
into December.

ALEX WULK, Daily
University Athletic director Bill Martin speaks to reporters
yesterday at Weber's Inn where the Michigan football
team's Citrus Bowl bid was announced.
Continued from Page 1
"We'll know by next Sunday or Monday who the
opponent will be," Carr said. "With Thanksgiving com-
ing up by the time we come back next week we'll know
who we will play."
