A resolution, which was introduced by the University A ffairs Committee and which also calls for the regents to pay their own legal fees, was unanimously passed by the Senate. “ I believe the regents shouldn’t operate as a secret society,” said College of Engineering and Applied Sciences Sen. P at Shirley, chairman of the committee. A court battle between the regents and The Arizona Republic and Tribune Newspapers began May 30, when the board filed suit seeking a judgment that state public records laws do not require the disclosure of unedited resumes of ASU presidential candidates. On Sept. 5, Maricopa County Superior Court Judge Elizabeth Stover ruled that the regents had to release the names of the 240 candidates for the ASU presidency and pay all the legal fees accumulated by the regents and the Erik Eldridge, a third-year music education major and the trombone line leader for the A SU {Marching Band, practice* outside the newspapers.

ASU must pay 50 percent of the legal costs, which have been estimated at -more than $200,000, under a proposal approved by the presidents of the three state universities. N AU and U of A must each pay 25 percent of the fees.

The ASU Student Health Center has been receiving about six calls a day from students curious about the thousands of white bugs in the air, a campus health official said Tuesday. “ We get calls from people who were running and biking and getting them down their throats,” said Chuck M cDuffie, University health education coordinator. “ T h e y a r e w o n d e r in g i f th e y a r e dangerous.” M cDuffie said the bugs do not pose a ASU English proG. Lynn Nelson discussed personal ex­ periences today as guest of the Lecture Series. 10 Bemisia tabaci, commonly known as white flies, have descended in hoards upon ASU and the Valley. Entomologists, who are zoologists that deal with insects, suspect that the bugs are searching for food after defoliating nearby cotton fields. ‘ T i n seeing more flies than usual — certainly more than the 11 years I have been here,” said Allen Boettcher, a horticulturist at the U of A Cooperative Extension Service in Phoenix. Most students said the gnat-like insects are annoying and difficult to avoid. “ Friday morning I was riding m y bike, and they w ere hitting me from all sides,” said Juan Tarango, a senior political science major. Jon Krause, a justice studies m ajor, said, “ I ’ve noticed them in the past week, and they are just annoying as hell.” In addition to the irritation the bugs are causing, Boettcher said they can pose Serious damage to vegetables and vine-type plants by sucking the juice out o f the plants. “ The gardening public is quite aw are of the little white flies,” he said. ASU ground maintenance crew members said no insecticide spraying has been done on campus to control the swarm of white flies. “ As far as I know, there is no pesticide available that w ill contain the white fly ,” said Bill Blaine, ASU supervisor of ground maintenance. To reduce the white fly onslaught, Valley residents can paint a piece of wood yellow and cover it with petroleum jelly. The bugs w ill be attracted to the brightly colored wood, stick to it and eventually die.
