Bomb teats cose tRnaw school
AUGUSTA TOWNSHIP (AP) - Officials with the Lin-
coin Consolidated School District canceled classes today
fdr all students after receiving at least four bomb threats.
The decision came after the latest threat was made
against Lincoln High School yesterday morning, Superin-
tendent Al Widner said in a message to parents posted on
the, district's website.
Vtudents were sent home early, as were students at the
middle school that shares a campus with the high school.
Sports events and practices also were canceled yesterday.
Today classes for all students in the eastern Washtenaw
County district were canceled, as were sports activities and
scheduled parent-teacher conferences, Widner said.
A lincoln High student was indefinitely suspended in
connection with the threats, Widner told Ann Arbor radio
staion WAAM. The unidentified student was suspended
before yesterday's incident and could also face criminal
prosecution, the superintendent said.
School officials were to review safety procedures at a
community meeting scheduled for 7:30 p.m. today.

Martin will not be alone in his search for Michigan's
next coach. The athletic director plans to put together a
screening committee of five to seven former and current
basketball players who will interview all of the candidates
and report back to Martin. The committee will not act as
a selection committee, but will merely offer suggestions.
Martin also plans to consult two "experts" who will aid
him in the selection of candidates for the job, Declining
to state their names, Martin instead described them as two
members of the Basketball Hall of Fame who had both
won as coaches "at the highest level."
Over the weekend, Martin met with associate head
coach Scott Trost and assistant coaches Kurt Townsend
and Terrence Greene and explained that they would be
retained pending a decision from the new coach. Sopho-
more guard Gavin Groninger said the players liked the
assistants and wanted them to remain with the program.
"Hopefully it will be a smooth transition," Groninger
said. "I think a lot of the players would like to see one of
the staff members stick around when we get a new
coach."

Task Force is high on the Michigan
Party Platform. Candidates said the
task force has "died during Hideki's
rise to power," and is a necessary
vehicle for the student voice.
Ain issue the party sees as unique is
t eir campaign for more lighting at
Palmer Field. They also seek improved
bussing, improved internship opportu-
nities and more parking.
"Everyone knows that parking at U
of M is atrocious," Tietz said. "We're
finally going to do something about
it."
LSA freshman and Michigan Party
candidate Kristen Klanow said stu-
dents are really supportive of the
notion of change in MSA.
"I was going door-to-door tonight
and I talked to student who had never
ever heard of MSA, who didn't even
know we had a student government,"
Klanow said. "We're going to change
that,"!
Tietz promised that all elected
members of the Michigan Party
would stand by their word of resign-
ing if they do not fulfill their plat-
form.
"Are you tired of people lying to
you?" Tietz said. "The issues are out
there, and if I don't work on them I'm
going to pack my bags and go home."
NAMES

matter what we tackle from year to
year we always remember the vic-
tims."
The theme of this year's confer-
ence, "Consequences of Intolerance
and Hatred," tries to "expose the
campus and different communities
on campus to aspects of the Holo-
caust that have traditionally been
overlooked in Holocaust education,"
Samek said.
The 10-day conference features
speakers and events to explore dif-
ferent facets of the theme.
The conference opened Monday
night with Harvard Prof. Cornell
West giving a keynote speech titled
"Genocide and its Consequences" to
a packed audience in Rackham
Auditorium.
"People living in the 21st century
don't think that the Holocaust can
happen again," Katz said. "We're
trying to show that even today ... we
need to constantly remind our-
selves." She said West's lecture
highlighted "many different acts of
injustice taking place all over the
world."
The event was co-sponsored by
the University's Center for Afro-
American and African Studies,
which Katz said illustrates the
diverse audience the conference
attracts.
The student groups that have vol-
unteered to read names also reflect
that.
"It's a very diverse list - every-
one from Jewish groups ... to
groups like the Army ROTC,"
Samek said.
Individuals are also drawn to the
podium under the white tent.
"It strikes me every year the
diversity of the people who stop and
ask to read names and take five or
ten minutes out of their day," Samek
said.
"Everyone who lost their lives is
important and this is the least we
can do to preserve their memory,"
said Katz.
GRANT

new initiative at the center.
"We need to be vigorous in our
support of patients' rights," he said,
adding that the grant will provide-
funds to have a full-time ombuds-.
man at the center to make sure that
it is following all federal and state:
regulations regarding patient confi-
dentiality.
Pointing out that the University
"has always been able to expand the
center," Wiley mentioned a parallel
$600,000 grant that the center will
receive from the NIH in conjunction
with another $600,000 from the
University that the Board of
Regents is expected to approve
tomorrow.
The parallel grant will go towards
expansion of the center. It current=
occupies all of wing 7A at the Uni-
versity Hospitals and half of wing:
7B.
Officials at NIH were unavailable
for comment yesterday.
CODE
Continued from Page 2.
The committee has worked since September with a draft
of the code designed by a previous committee, tweaking it
A eet University standards.
le Root said the committee considered introducing
the code to licensees as their contracts expired over the next
year, it chose to do the job all at once instead.
"We decided that it was easier to do it this way, with the
way things are arranged" Root said. "It puts the code into
effect faster, too."
The mailed letter, signed by University Vice President
and General Counsel Bruce Siegal, includes 2 1/2 pages
outlining the code.
Among other standards, it specifically requires all
instances of employees working more than 60 hours a week
be reported to the University "with a full explanation that
s was due to extraordinary circumstances and the nature
of such extraordinary circumstances."
a It also states "wages paid factory workers should meet at
least the basic needs."
The code goes on to describe standards for forced and
child labor, harassment and abuse, nondiscrimination,
health and safety, women's rights and freedom of associa-
tion and collective bargaining.
The code's enforcement occurs as the University nears
the two-year anniversary of the Students Organizing for
Labor and Economic Equality storming Bollinger's office to
demand high labor standards in all deals with outside com-
panies.
When Bollinger announced the University's acceptance
of the code, SOLE member Jackie Bray, an LSA freshman,
said, "SOLE is pleased that after two years we in the com-
munity at large could come to this compromise."
But LSA senior and SOLE member Peter Romer-Fried-
man emphasized how long it has taken for the University to
take these steps.
"Of course we're happy with this new code, but it's also
unbelievable how much time was wasted," he said.
He also criticized how Nike is held at a weaker code stan-
dard than the other companies.
