A Nevada Judge later dismissed the charges against Shcolnlk. By K E R R Y F E H R State Press On the 36th anniversary of the first nuclear weapon test at the Nevada Test Site, peace activists urged a crowd of about 40 people on West Lawn to travel to Nevada and protest a Feb. 5 test. Deanna Kahn, a local peace activist who was arrested last year at the Nevada Test Site, spoke at noon Tuesday to a crowd which sat at a distance on the lawn. She urged people to protest because the Soviet Union has vowed to break an 18month nuclear testing moratorium if the United States proceeds w ith the February test, the first for 1987. Kahn said she and her son, Keith Peace activist Deanna Kahn urges people to protest nuclear weapons testing Feb. 5 at the Nevada test sight. Kahn spoke on the West Lawn Tuesday In recognition of the first nuclear weapons test. Shcolnik, a recent ASU graduate, were arrested last September along with other protesters, including scientist Carl Sagan, actor Martin Sheen and Nobel Peace Laureate Bernard Lown. Kahn and Shcolnik said they expect to be arrested for civil disobedience during the February protest. It will be Shcolnik’s fourth such arrest. The Arizona Center to Reverse the Arms Race is planning a bus trip to the Nevada site for $25. “You’ll only be m issing one day of school,” Shcolnik told the crowd. “And you don’t need to get arrested. ” Shcolnik said a U.S. moratorium on testing would increase national security and improve relations with the Soviet Union. Shcolnik, a full-time activist, said the crowd should be concerned about nuclear testing because it adversely affects the quality of life, the U.S. economy and people’s psychological well-being. Shcolnik said Gallup polls indicate most Americans want testing banned. “In a democracy, the majority should rule,” he said. Shcolnik said testin g v io la tes international laws established in articles 35 and 48 of the Geneva Convention. “(Testing) hurts our reputation in the world,” he said. Shcolnik said testing also inhibits arms control efforts. M echam ’s budget plan will cut A S U ’s request to $140.7 million By VICKIE C H A C H E R E State Press PHOENIX — ASU’s 1987-88 budget request w ill be cut by more than $45 m illion to $140.7 million under a state budget plan unveiled by Gov. Evan Mecham Tuesday. ASU requested $214,857,100, but Mecham’s. plan will reduce the amount to $178,666,800 for the main campus. The $36,190,300 reduction stem s from Mecham’s cutbacks in the money ASU can receive from the state’s general fund. The money requested for ASU West was cut by about 50 percent, from $12.9 million to $6.46 million. Mecham called his $3.06 billion plan a “steady state judget.” • Ta«r year, ASU’s main campus was allotted $134 million. V3U West was given more than $5 million. “We haven’t hurt anybody (with this budget),” Mecham said. “I am sure not everybody will agree with that.” But John Wettaw, R-Flagstaff and chairman of the House Appropriations Committee, said Mecham’s budget “won’t fly.” 1 Wettaw said he is unhappy with the amount allotted to the m iversities. He added that Mecham’s budget will be reviewed and changed by legislators because it is “way too .ow.” .. ' • ..... .. Mecham’s total appropriation plan for state education is more than $283 million less than requested by state agencies. UA’s budget request was cut by $48.5 million to nearly $234 miliinn NAU’s request was reduced by alm ost $12 million to $61,082,400. Mecham’s plan assum es an additional $60 tuition increase that the governor requested two weeks ago will be approved by the Arizona Board of Regents. That increase would bring resident tuition to $1,256 for next fall. The board approved one $60 increase in November. Mwham also called for reductions in the amount universities retain from tuition and fees. Those funds are used for financial aid programs, paying interest on University construction bonds and for instructors’ salaries. “There has been a process of gradually splitting the money (from tuition and fees) up without rhyme or reason,” Mecham said. “We would like a bigger part of that money to go into the treasury.” Rep. Jim Green, chairman of the House Education Committee, said lawmakers quietly have allowed the universities to retain larger portions of tuition and fees to help fund financial aid programs. Joseph Smith, Mecham’s budget director, said the additional $60 tuition increase was figured into the budget, although the regents have not discussed the request. The board will review the tuition increase at its Feb. 20 meeting in Tucson. “Tuition will be set by this budget,” Smith said. “If the regents don’t want to set tuition by this budget, then they won’t have the revenues.” The plan appropriates nearly $1.3 million in state-matching funds for the State Student Incentive Grant Program, which provides money to needy students. “Banning is the No. 1 step to ending the arms race.” Shcolnik said the Soviets agreed to allow the United States to set up monitoring stations to assure a bilateral test ban, but the United States ignored the offer. Kahn said the U.S. Department of Energy, which is responsible for the testing, vented radiation that traveled across seven states, causing health hazards. Kahn said she has a photograph from the department that she claim s shows the radiation leakage. She said the Department of Energy performs underground testing every three weeks at a cost between $30 million and $60 million per test. in s id e to d a y ASU W EATH ER Cloudy skies with an expected high of 69 degrees.

A BRIGHAM YOUNG UNIVERSITY PRODUCTION House saved; relocation replaces wrecking ball By b e n m c c o n n e l l State Press Once destined to be smashed and ground into dust to make way for the School of A rchitecture expansion, the historic Frankenberg house on University Drive will not m eet with the wrecking ball. ASU’s design project manager Jason Eslam ieh said the University is bowing to public outcry against demolishing the house and w ill give the 77-year-old landmark to whomever w ill take it off campus. He said about $15,000 — the University’s approximate destruction cost — will be given to a new owner to move the house. Eslam ieh said ASU is giving away the house because the University cannot afford to m ove it but wants to save it. The concrete block house at University Drive and Forest Avenue m ay be saved by a construction firm owner who read about its plight last year in the State Press. Gary Ruoho of Building Remodelers in Tempe is one of two people who said they w ill submit proposals to m ove the house somewhere else in Tempe. Eslam ieh said a Tempe real estate agent, who has moved three houses and restored another three, also is interested in the Frankenberg house. The deadline for proposals is Feb. 10. The ASU School of Architecture needs the land the house sits on for an $11.5 million, 100,000-square-foot expansion slated to begin in June. Ruoho said he hopes to move the Frankenberg house for $300,000. He said he must rem ove the roof or pay utility companies to unhitch power lines en route to the house’s new location. Admitting the process is “a little more expensive” than building offices from scratch, Ruoho said, “I hate to see something (destroyed) that’s been around so long and is so unique without trying to save it.” Ruoho said the house is strong and will not crumble during the trip. “We have no problem whatsoever with moving it,” he said. “We’ve had house m overs look at it. The primary problem is those power lines. ” Ruoho said he is considering a spot near the Arizona Public Service light station at University and McClintock drives. The Tempe City Council must approve the move. Although Ruoho said he wants the house for his company’s 10 em ployees, he added ASU should preserve the house’s heritage by moving it elsewhere on canfpus, preferably near Old Main. : A great-granddaughter of Jam es Woolf, one of the house’s builders, said the house should stay right where it is. Susan Harter said, “I don’t see why (ASU planners) can’t incorporate the house into their expansion plans. ” Harter has led the fight to save the house WORLD GYM & AEROBICS H O U RS: Mon.-Fri. 5a.m.-10p.m. Saturday 8 a.m.-8 p.m. Sunday 10 a.m.-6 p.m. Mon.-Fri. — & am .

(The area near) Old Main is B ^ green space we want to keep as a green space,” he said. Harter’s great-grandfather and Milton Meyer built the house in 1910.
