Canopy to aid W.
By DAVID JACOBS
Some residents of West Quadrangle's Williams House may
no longer have to wake up to the aroma of garbage and the
noise of delivery trucks because of renovations in the dor-
mitory, Building Director Alan Levy said.
According to Levy, a canopy will be installed over the
dorm's loading dock to "aid in sound absorption and help
eliminate the smell of garbage going to the room areas of
Williams House."
THE NEW canopy, which will not be completed until after
fall classes begin, is part of a summer renovation project in
the 45-year-old residence hall.
Although the initial impetus for the construction was to im-
prove the building's loading dock, "a nice side benefit of the
renovation is a completely renovated and improved laundry
area," Levy said. Dowels for hanging clothes and a study
area will be added during the construction, and the laundry
area will have improved lighting and ventilation.
In addition to the laundry area improvements, Levy said
renovation of the loading dock area was necessary because
uad residents
it was too small for trucks to turn around and trash compac-
tors occupied too much of the dock area.
THE REBUILT dock area will provide storage space near
the dock and should reduce the time employees spend finding
and moving materials on the loading dock. The driveway has
been repaired and an improved drainage system will be in-
stalled soon, Levy said.
The $99,000 improvement project is being done during the
summer when the dorm has its smallest number of residents,
but it means taking laundry elsewhere and putting up with
the noise for the students and others living in the dorm during
the summer.
The project will cut the size of the dorm's mail room in
half, but Levy said students will not notice the difference.
The project is "a major improvement as it is," Levy said,
although he would like to have been able to install additional
laundry machines and study areas. The building director
said students returningin the fall will have a nicer laundry
room, new study areas, and a reduction in the noise and smell
from the loading dock.
Hijacking
ends in .
Iran with,
none hurt
From The Associated Press
Three hijackers of an Air France jet
surrendered yesterday at Tehran air-
port after freeing 46 hostages and
blowing up the cockpit of the empty
Boeing 737.
The 44 passengers and two crewmen
were unhurt after the two-day ordeal of
terror and the hijackers, as yet uniden-
tified, were "taken away" according to
officials at the Iranian airport who
would not give their names.
THE THREE gunmen comman-
deered the plane Tuesday during a
Frankfurt to Paris flight and stopped at
Geneva, Beirut, and Cyprus before
reaching Tehran, where the hijackers
demanded France release five Iranian
prisoners.
The gunmen first said they would
shoot one French hostage per hour,
then threatened to blow the plane and
passengers by 4:30 p.m. Tehran time if
their demands were not met. At least
one American was among the
passengers.
Iranian officials reached by
telephone from Beirut said the
hijackers surrendered soon after the
deadline.
THE IRANIAN officials were not
clear on what happened in the final few
moments. One spokesman for Iranian
radio and television said by telephone
that some shots were fired.
"They (the hijackers) started to
shoot out (of the plane) and keep the
guards around the airplane...(away).
They took all the passengers out from
the airplane, the passengers and crew,
and they exploded the cabin of the air-
plane," he said.
American businessman John Scott
said later, "We ran about 500 meters
across the dusty runway and then they
told us to get down, so we were all scat-
tered out...and they kept us lying down
waiting for the aircraft to blow."
Scott, formerly of Connecticut but
presently based in Sharjah, Dubai, said
he was "very elated-very good to be
alive."
British nurse Jane Wallington, freed
earlier with the rest of the women and
children, called the ordeal
"horrifying."
The Iranian news agency IRNA said
the cockpit explosion took place at 5:10
p.m.
PSN seeks
stay in
trespassing
trial
Washtenaw County) Circuit Court
Judge Patrick Colin decided not to rule
on a motion yesterday in the
trespassing case of 11 members of the
Progressive Student Network. Colin
said he would make a ruling sometime
next week.
Defense attorney Donald Koster, who
filed a motion for a stay of proceeding,
said Conlin should approve the motion
in order to allow the activists time to
appeal District Court Judge S.J.
Elden's ruling on a motion of discovery.
The 11 PSN members were arrested
last March for trespassing on
University property during a protest
against military research being
conducted in engineering Prof. George
Haddad's East Engineering laboratory.
Haddad's research, which is funded by
the Department of Defense, involves
solid state diodes and transistors.
The trial dates for the defendants are
August 23 and September 6 and 13.
