State ©Copyright, State Press, 1991 Tampa, Arizona Arizona State University’s Morning Daily Voi. 74 No. 19 Friday, February 8,1991 Athletes get preregistration priority By KEVIN SWEH Stats Press A S U P r e s id e n t L a t t ie C oor a p p r o v e d p r io r it y preregistration for student-athletes Wednesday — a move that drew sharp criticism from student leaders. “ It ’s unfair,” said Associated Students of ASU President Matt Ortega. “ I don’t think that’s a good decision.” Many full-time students who are not athletes must schedule classes around jobs and families, he said, adding that these groups also should be considered for priority. Student-athletes join two other groups — disabled students and Honors College students — that enjoy priority preregistration privileges. Coor said he approved the proposal, which was developed by die Intercollegiate Athletic Board, because of an NCAA stipulation requiring the 500 student-athletes who preregister to filé a program of study upon admission. The other 24,000 students participating in preregistration are not required to submit a program o f study until their 87th credit hour. He said he recognized the plight,of these students, but the decision was based on academics. “ I defined it and made the decision soley on the basis that there w ere academic requirements made o f these students,” he said. “ It’s not the work schedule of athletes or the work schedule of others that w e’re bringing up here.” “ I f there w ere other groups o f students-which had that program of study requirement, I would treat them the same way,” Coor said. “ I f others have sim ilar requirements in the future, I w ill actively entertain including them in the priority.” : •Ortega disagreed with the distinction between work and academics. “ It doesn’t make a lot of sense,” he said. “ I ’m not happy.” T u rn to A th le te , p age 10. Baghdad, bridges rocked; USS W isconsin joins raid DHAHRAN, Saudi Arabia (A P ) — In endless hours o f air strikes, U.S. and allied pilots rocked Baghdad, key bridges and the bunkers of front-line troops Thursday, and blew two m ore Iraqi “ getaway jets” out of the sky. A second veteran U.S. battleship joined in the bombardment of Iraqi-held Kuwait. The pounding was having an impact. Returning pilots told of a devastated landscape in Kuwait, and journalists near the border found first-hand evidence — four Iraqi soldiers who turned themselves in m u tterin g ov6r and o v e r about the “ bombing . . . bombing . . . bombing.” But Desert Storm losses mounted, too. A U.S. N avy FA-18 Hornet fighter went down in the northern Persian Gulf, apparently not from hostile fire, and an A rm y helicopter crashed in Saudi Arabia. The N avy pilot was missing; one soldier was killed and four w ere wounded in the helicopter accident. President Bush’s two top w ar advisers — Defense Secretary Dick Cheney and joint chiefs chairman Gen. Colin Pow ell — flew to the gulf to confer over the weekend with local commanders on the countdown to a ground offensive, a momentous clash between a half-million or more men on each side. “ Our hope is that w e can wrap it up as soon as possible, to minimize the loss of life on all sides,” file defense secretary-said before he left. Ill The commander o f British forces in Operation Desert Storm, Lt. Gen. Peter de la Billiere, told reporters he believes “ the land w ar is inevitable.” A U.S. command spokesman disputed the use o f “ inevitable.” But up on the northern desert line, U.S. troops had little doubt.

That view found high-level support in France, where P r e s id e n t F ra n c o is M itte rra n d told reporters: “ The ground battle promises to take place . . . this month.” Miles from the wind-whipped front, some clung to hopes for peace.

B ut S ad d am sh ow ed no sign s o f surrender. Iraq launched one of its largely ineffective SCUD missiles ea rly Friday at Riyadh. Like an estimated 17 others fired previously at the Saudi capital, it was intercepted by a U.S. Patriot missile. The wreckage landed in a parking lot and caused no injuries or m ajor damage, witnesses said. Allied warplanes battered Baghdad for 12 hours from Wednesday night to Thursday morning, Associated Press correspondent Salah Nasrawi reported from -.the Iraqi capital. He said at least 10 homes w ere destroyed or heavily damaged, and Iraqi authorities said 22 civilians w ere killed. Ram sey Clark, the form er U.S. attorney general and peace activist who is in Baghdad this week, told reporters that residential damage showed the U.S. a ir w ar exceeded the mandate o f U.N.

A suspect sought by Tem pe police for several area car thefts has been arrested in Payson on unrelated charges, police officials said Thursday. The 2l-year-old suspect is connected directly to at least four car thefts, possibly nine, Tem pe Detective Larry Baggs said. Since Feb. 1, three cars w ere stolen from the parking lot at Valley National Bank, 1780 E. Southern Ave., when people The younger brother o f the suspect was arrested Tuesday after police set up a surveillance at Valley National Bank, and approached the 15-year-old boy as he allegedly tried to steal a car. The juvenile, who was released to his parents, blamed his older brother— an ex-convict— for the other car thefts, police said. A t the tim e of his arrest, the juvenile was allegedly in S.M’s Movie: By Any Other Name: P ete Rose, the baseball Hall o f Fame, and sports in-general are discussed in a column by Michael LaMantia.

A fter Tem pe police had put out an alert on the older suspect, authorities in Payson took him into custody on an unrelated charge, Baggs said. Payson police would not give the exact time o f the arrest. The suspect allegedly would steal one car and drop the same car o ff when he returned to take another.

Hull denied seeking illegal contributions but acknowledged having spoken with the lawmaker. She said she did not believe the accusations w ere serious enough to warrant stepping aside temporarily as speaker. The allegations are found in transcripts and videotapes released Thursday of an undercover investigation that resulted in bribery-conspiracy indictments against 15 other lawmakers, lobbyists and activists. Mrs. Hull has already relieved the five inctéd House m epbers of leadership posts and urged them to resign their seats: Meanwhile, a form er state lawmaker, Pim a County Supervisor Greg Lunn, said he had sought in vestigation in 1978 of apparently illegal cash contributions but had been told by senior lawmakers to keep quiet because the probe could jeopardize other Republicans. Lunn declined to identify the lawmakers involved but said he had reported what he knew to authorities. The 15th defendant, private investigator and form er magistrate Gary Bartlett, was indicted on Tuesday along with the other 14, but his name was not released until Thursday because he had not been served with papers. Another o f the defendants, Tolleson ju stice of the P eace Donald Stump, said he would take a leave o f absence from the bench. Officials at the Commission on Judicial Conduct said they had begun reviewing investigation documents for allegations against other JPs mentioned but uncharged. And Senate President Pete Rios, DHayden, appointed Phoenix attorney Ed Hendricks as a special counsel to the Senate in the case. Other lawmakers have begun preparing possible ethics or impeachment hearings. Hull, R-Phoenix, who is not among those indicted in the sting, said lobbyist Ernie H offm an ’s c la im that she requested contributions was “ totally ridiculous.” She acknowledged that she had warned Rep. Bill English, R-Sierra Vista, about the probe but said that was because Attorney General Bob Corbin’s office hadn’ t told her it was secret. Corbin, reached a t home, said that he did not recall details of his conversation with Hull but that such briefings are always confidential. Hoffman m ade his claim s in a videotaped meeting with a police informer who he and others knew as “ J. Anthony Vincent” and who was posing as a backer o f legislation to legalize casino gambling. Hoffman said Hull had asked him to raise thousands of dollars and give it to other lawmakers on her behalf so she could count on their support for another term as the House’s presiding officer. “ She -wants deperately to be Speaker again,” Hoffman said in a transcript examined by The Associated Press. There was no independent corroboration in the transcript of those allegations, and Hull said Hoffman was “ a drunk” who was m erely trying to impress Vincent with tales of influence. “ Before I ’d stoop to that kind of crap, the state would do without m e very w ell,” Hull said. “ M y husband and m y fam ily are more important to m e than that.” News organizations that had made requests under Arizona’s public records law w ere given about an hour each to sample the more than 200 reels of videotapes and 18,000 pages of transcripts in the case. Senate M ajority Leader Carolyn Walker, D-Phoenix, is seen on one video tape accepting a stack of money from Vincent, who actually is Joseph Stadino, an ex­ convict and paid police informer, and listening to him tell her it totaled $15,000 in $100 bills.

W o r ld / N a t io n State Press Page 3 Friday, February 8,1991 Officials refuse to face ‘body bag w ar R IY A D H , Saudi Arabia (A P ) — Facing an edict from their commander that there will be no Vietnam-style “ body count” in a gulf ground war, U. S. officers will use wrecked tanks, guns and helicopters to measure the course of battle against the Iraqis. Nevertheless, some officers question privately whether this impersonal approach, set forth in a new statement of policy, is appropriate. In any case, they believe the counting of enemy dead will unavoidably become common practice by units doing the actual fighting. “ It’s all very well to talk about ‘killing tanks’ and ‘killing A P C s,’ but if1you’re going to do that you might as well try to figure out how many people were also killed,” said a headquarters officer, speaking on condition of anonymity. The question o f how to report casualties on the allied side is also troubling m ilitary officials, who are deeply concerned about the so-called “ body bag” issue — the spectacle of la rge numbers of dead Americans arriving in the United States. A recent query to the U. S. Central Command seeking a definition of “ light, moderate and heavy” casualties elicited the response that this method of reporting losses, used in Vietnam, is no longer accepted by the military. U. S. officers said Thursday they were still waiting for the Pentagon to say how U. S. battle casualties would be reported on a daily basis, by numbers or by some far less precise method, such as the effect of personnel losses on the unit involved. The ban on a “ body count” 1of enemy dead has been spelled out in unmistakeable terms by Gen. Norman Schwarzkopf, commander of the 500,000-strong U. S. forces preparing for a possible invasion of Kuwait. On several recent occasions, the 56-year-old general has recalled his experience in Vietnam, where he saw U S, commanders pressured into showing results by inflating or falsifying the numbers of enemy dead. Schwarzkopf first raised the body count issue in a Jan. 18 news briefing, saying he had “ no idea” what Iraq’s battlefield casualties were, and adding: “ I f I have anything to say about it, w e’re not going to get into the body count business. That’s nothing more than rough, wild estimates, and it’s ridiculous to do that.” In response to a query from The Associated Press, U. S. Central Command headquarters issued a statement explaining that Iraqi battle losses would be measured in An Am erican soldier with the 17th/13th A ir Refueling Wing walks past a homemade sign post show ing the direction to Kuwait and Baghdad on his way to a briefing-room at a U .S. m ilitary base in the Arabian Penninsula. terms o f diminished war-fighting capability, but not in the numbers of dead. “ Given the nature o f our technological advantage and superior mobility, the enemy strengths we are most concerned about are the ones that have the potential to counter our advantages,” the statement said. “ Given that unsupported infantry is not very effective against our arm or andair, keeping track of his arm or and air loses are important. Keeping track o f his personnel losses is much less so.” In the battle of Khafji a week ago, the Saudi forces who retook the port city reported capturing 93 Iraqi tanks, APCs and trucks and 500 prisoners, but finding only 30 dead. British forces, which w ere not involved, had volunteered an earlier count of 300 killed. That figure was later attributed to a typist’s error, but. some suspicions lingered that it may have been closer to the truth, and that the figure was cut by the Saudis to avoid the delicate issue of having killed other Arabs. Cheney claims Soviet arm s treaties in doubt W A S H IN G T O N ( A P ) — D e fe n s e Secretary Dick Cheney said today the prospects for arms control treaties with the Soviet Union are in doubt, and warned that Soviet unrest or even civil war could create a new threat to world peace. Cheney said there are difficulties both with the strategic arms treaty currently being negotiated and with the conventional forces pact already signed but not yet submitted for Senate ratification. “ The prospects for arms control are in doubt,” Cheney told the House Armed Services Committee. “ Until w e’re satisfied o f their good faith, there w ill continue to be problems.” Cheney testified one day after Secretary o f State Jamas Baker told another House com m ittee that he had recommended that President Bush delay submitting to the Senate the conventional forces treaty, which was signed by 22 nations last November. The defense secretary said the Soviet withdrawal from Eastern Europe was likely to continue, but cautioned that internal turmoil lead to new dangers. “ I have to believe there will be continued economic decline. That means increased unrest, and the possibility which the Soviets frankly discuss among themselves, perhaps even civil war inside the Soviet Union,” Cheney said. “ The greatest threat to the neighbors of the Soviet Union in the future may well come more from Soviet inability to control events inside the Soviet Union than from any conscious policy o f trying to expand their influence by m ilitary means,” he said. Cheney said Soviet progress toward economic reform looks to be stalled. “ The economic situation in the Soviet Union todaty is as bleak as it has been in the last 50 years,” he said. “ There is no doubt that the Soviet economy is collapsing, the only question is how fast it is shrinking.” Gen. Colin Powell, chairman of the Joint Chiefs o f Staff, told the committee that traditional Soviet m ilitary strength could not be overlooked. “ S o v ie t m ilit a r y p o w er is h a rd ly becoming irrelevant,” Pow ell said. “ The Soviet Union now and in the future will r e m a in . the one country capable of destroying the United States in less than 30 minutes.” In his comments Wednesday, Baker also criticized the Krem lin for expanding the authority o f the arm y and the KGB secret police and its tough response to rebellion in the Baltic republics. “ P e re s tro ik a (restru ctu rin g) cannot succeed at gunpoint,” Baker told the House Foreign A ffairs Committee. The White House, meanwhile, said a package o f medical aid w ill be sent to the breakaway Baltics “ in response to their request for assistance to alleviate medical shortages there and demonstrate U. S. concern for the situation.” Declaring that “ our hearts go out to the courageous people of the Baltic states,” Baker urged the Soviets to fulfill a pledge to hold peaceful dialogue with independence leaders in Latvia, Lithuania and Estonia. “ There is simply no justification for the use o f fo r c e a g a in s t p e a c e fu l and democratically elected governments,” he said. Baker said the Soviet reconstruction program, undertaken nearly six years ago by President Mikhail Gorbachev to foster political and economic reform, was in reverse with “ an apparent turn” toward a centralized economy. President Bush, speaking in New York on Wednesday night, defended his efforts to prod the Krem lin to ease its crackdown on the breakaway republics. “ W e’ve got to see that no more force will be lised against these Baltic states and that there can be peaceful resolution to thee questions,” Bush said. “ Otherwise, not only w ill our trade relations be set back . . . but the rest of our overall relationship could undergo a problem.” Prime minister blames IRA for London explosion LONDON (A P ) — mortar shell fired from a van exploded behind 10 Downing St. today, shattering glass and forcing P rim e Minister John M ajor to m ove a W ar Cabinet meeting to another room. Four people w ere injured. The Irish Republican Arm y claimed responsibility, the domestic news agency Press Association reported. Even before the claim, M ajor blamed the Irish Republican A rm y and said the attack was timed “ to kill the Cabinet and to do damage to our system of government.” Queen Elizabeth II, who rarely speaks on current events, sent a message to the attackers in a speech at the opening of a London Hospital. “ I would like to take this opportunity to remind them that they w ill not succeed,” the monarch said. Three police officers and a civil servant suffered minor injuries. Police said two men w ere seen fleeing from.the van before the mortars fired. A w o c ia M P m p ho to Sm oke billow s from a burning van in London T h a i»day after a m ortar bom b attack. A spokesman fo r Scotland Yard, Stewart Goodwin, said the IR A was suspected because the group has carried out sim ilar attacks in Northern Ireland, where it seeks to end British rule and unite the province with the Republic of Ireland. The van was 100 yards from 10 Downing St., where the prime minister lives and works. Scotland Kara said the mortars apparently w ere fired through the roof o f the vehicle. No bodies w ere found in the van, Goodwin said. Press Association reported that three m ortar tubes could be seen bolted inside the van, and part of the roof had been crudely cut away above them. B aker, the C abinet o ffic ia l responsible fo r law enforcement, said the mortars apparently w ere fired either by remote control or by a timer. The van, which was parked o ff Whitehall, a busy thoroughfare lined with government offices, was engulfed by flames after the mortars fired. Goodwin said the mortar, which landed about 40-50 feet behind 10 Downing St., dug a shallow crater, and the explosion scorched a wall o f the building and broke windows, especially in the upper floor. In Commons, M erlyn Rees, a Labor P a rty lawmaker and form er home secretary, asked Baker “ whose head is going to roll” for what he called a lapse o f security. “ One cannot fault the police security,” Baker said. “ . . .

S L E T T E R Peace movement patriotic Editor; We, the Student Action Movement (SAM ) would like to respond to Michelle Roberts’ opinion column o f Jan. 30. First, w e would like to clarify a few points to the University community. W e know the w ar must end for a variety o f reasons. One is economic: the cost to the United States is too great. The w ar costs one billion dollars a day at a time when the nation’s debt has reached crisis proportions. The S&L scandal has spread to the banks. Various banks in N ew England have failed already. Our domestic front is in shambles. Mr. Bush’s lack of a domestic policy has allowed AIDS to become the second leading cause o f death for men 25-40. AIDS has spread t o the straight community. Those unfortunates that live on our streets have now reached numbers that riva l that of our Great Depression. In Maricopa County, 60 percent of em ergency food packs are given to our children. As students we know that our educational system, long teetering on the verge of collapse, is in fact collapsing. The plague of hard core drugs and the violence that always follows is turning the streets of our inner cities into battle fields rivaling any w ar zone. T h e h y p o c ris y o f this c o n flic t is overwhelming. Mr. Bush has demonized Hussein after making a career o f supporting him. The censorship imposed by the m ilitary far exceeds any national security concerns. This censorship has turned the m ed ia into border-line governm ental inform ation bureaus. This e ffe c tiv e ly emasculates our republic, an educated and informed citizenry expressing its views has been made impossible. The hypocrisy has spread to the very soul o f our coalition. Our allies, the Syrians, Egyptians, Germans and the Japanese, for different reasons, are unreliable. The Syrians do, and have, used terrorism. Iraq invaded Kuwait; Syria invaded Lebanon. Iraq killed Americans aboard the USS Stark and Syria was directly linked to the Berlin discotheque bombing and the Marine Corps b a r r ic k s b o m b in g in B e r u it . Out* government bought o ff the Egyptians by promising to forget about the seven billion dollars U S. taxpayers loaned to them. The Germans and the Japanese won’t even cover a fair percentage of the w ar to secure their oil supplies. W e support the troops, not the flawed foreign policy o f Mr. Bush. Anyone saying that in order to support the troops one must also blindly support foreign policy, is using the troops as shields to deflect criticism of that policy. This is the height of intellectual and moral cowardice. The people in our armed forces are tools of the state. They are without a doubt the finest fighting force ever assembled. The fact that they are involved in a flawed foreign policy in no way d im in is h e s t h e ir c o l l e c t i v e h on or, professionalism o f service rendered to our country. The peace movement has learned from the 1960s and from Mr. Reagan. We are putting the pro-war factions on notice. We will not allow you to define us as disloyal or seditious. W e w ill not abuse or defame the troops. You will not make us go through those men and women to get to you. We will not abuse or defame the flag. The flag is a symbol for liberty and justice for all. We w ill not allow it to become the exclusive property of the pro-war faction. It is ours forever, and w e w ill never g iv e it up! Ms. Roberts, you and all the other good Americans don’t understand that Bush’s New World Order w ill be underwritten by the blood o f thousands of Americans — our fa th e rs , m oth ers, b ro th ers, sis te rs , husbands, w ives, lovers, friends and classmates. Our response to Ms. Roberts and the pro­ w ar factions, our response to you, is that we are the good Americans, standing by the flag and our governing documents. We are saying loud and d e a r that this w ar must end, that the troops must come home, that we w ill not accept a draft, end that the bombing must stop before tens o f thousands more lose their lives. Those of you who are pro-war might think you can look our service people in the eye and say, “ Welcome home.” I w ill say not only “ Welcom e home” , but also, “ I worked to bring you home alive,” R.

Y et the oil-soaked cormorants of the Persian Gulf have become an early warning sign o f a massive assault on nature. Stiff before the camera, dying by the thousands, they are now the “ poster species” for a w ar being waged against the environment as w ell as the enemy. First the birds, the Persian Gulf watchers tell us, then perhaps the dugongs, the sperm whales, the sea turtles, the mugger crocodiles, the shrimp. Caught by the huge Saddammade oil slick oozing its w ay down the Persian Gulf, the sea life will provide proof of Gen. Schwarzkopf’s axiom: “ Everybody knows that w ar is a dirty business.” They w ill provide proof that the booty o f w ar oil -r- has now become a weapon o f war, proof that the “ dirty business” has become pollution and the target is not just the enemy; it’s an entire sea and its inhabitants. But they w ill not tell us if this is just the nature o f w ar or a matter o f environmental terrorism. Is there such a thing as a w ar crim e against nature? Should there be? The environment has suffered w ar wounds before. The Iraqi oil assault against the Saudi water supply has its precedents. In our own Civil War, Gen. Sherman waged his scorchedEarth policy against the soil o f the South as well as the people. In the Vietnam War, w e deliberately used Agent Orange to rem ove the green “ camouflage” o f that country, never mind the ecology. Again and again, enemies try to destroy not just each other, but each other’s turf. What is different now is, in part, the greening o f our consciousness. No one who watched the oil spill in Alaska, the clean-up o f the Exxon Valdez, can be affected by a deliberate, one-man assault on the sea. No one in the recycling, rain-forest-saving, conservation mind-set can fail to be appalled by such deliberate “ wasting.” We know nature is more fragile and see ourselves as more destructive. However terrible our capacity to kill each other, our capacity to kill nature itself is final. I f w e are not wholly self-destructive, apocalyptic, then even in w ar there are lines to be drawn, rules to be made. Such laws have existed and do still. During the biblical era, soldiers w ere not permitted to cut down the trees that bore fruit, even in enemy territory. In the Middle Ages it was against^the rules of w ar to poison wells. A t times, the idea that there are rules o f w ar sounds ludicrous. It is permissible to kill the enemy leader by bombs from 30,000 feet, but not a pistol from three feet. A Marine can shoot an enemy, but carries a card telling him not to harm the man mice he surrenders. We have, through conventions, codified some o f the do’s and don’ts of w ar as if it could be tamed, made rational. Nations have promised, among other things, not to torture prisoners, rape women, bomb hospitals, initiate the use of pojson gas. E very one of the Geneva Conventions has been broken by enemies, including the current enemy, Saddam Hussein. But they have served the purpose o f defining some minimal standard, establishing a rule of law and a definintion of outlaws. They are the way w e define that curious concept “ w ar m orality.” In 1977 there was an attempt to add a protocol to the Geneva Convention to protect the environment by prohibiting “ methods of warfare likely to cause such damage and thereby jeopardize the health or survival of the population. . . .’ ’ Neither w e nor the Iraqis signed this law. It’s true that an international body which cannot stop war cannot always enforce the conditions of war. The fear of Mutually Assured Destruction — M AD — m ay have, done m ore to prevent a nuclear holocaust than m oral qualms or codes. W ar by its nature kills. Before this is over, oil refineries m ay be set ablaze, spewing layers ofsootacrœ s the northern hemisphere. The desert ecology m ay be shattered by tanks. But even in the devastating business of killing each other, there m ay be enough sanity for a concensus, enough sense of preservation to at least have a rid e on the book and in our minds against waging w ar on the very environment w e must share when the w ar is over. This is whàt we know from counting the bodies of the cormorants. K illing a sea isn’t just an act o f w ar against the designated enemy. It’s a crim e against humanity and that innnocent bystander: nature. / Opinion State Press L E T Page 5 Friday, February 8,1991 T E R S Operation Desert Fog Freedom imagery Editor: I am writing is response to Elaine Mulligan’s letter which appeared in the F eb 5 issue of the State Press “ Allen doesn’t back m e.’ ’ I think it is strange for Ms. Mulligan to ask us to conserve oil and develop alternative fuels. A fter all, this war is supposed to.be about saving freedom and dem ocracy in Kuwait. I f you go off to die in the Persian Gulf for me, I hope you understand that you are dying to preserve an oppressive monarchy that did not have freedom of speech or freedom o f the press. E ven if you believe the w ar is about protecting Saudi Arabia, you still would not by dying for freedom. People in Saudi Arabia are anything but “ free.” Let’s face it, this w ar is about protecting m y right as a citizen of the world to own a Buick that gets 12 miles per gallon. Those who support the war are not ready for the horrors ahead of us. I f the so-called free press is allowed, you are going to see many, many dead Americans. You are going to see people with limbs blown off, and you will hear stories from soldiers who had b e s t b u d d ie s w h o s e b o d ie s w e r e disassembled by incoming artillery shells. You better be prepared to see a war that lasts a little longer than five days. The secretary of defense last said that it would . last at least two months, many experts are saying that it m ay last a year or more. Supporting w ar m ay actually be supporting the death o f our troops. , What is thoroughly un-American is those, people who think the news should be G o o d I tor restore the normal way of life after war? M ay I remind you that the nation of Israel, the Holy Land, has an unbelievable history of wars and invasions led by dictators like King Herod, Caesar, Titus, Antioch IV and Hitler. Y e t their strong faith enabled them to remain a nation and still be able to absorb the SCUD missle attacks from Iraq. I don’t know whether this National Day of P ra yer is an enhancement to the president’s propaganda. I don’t agree with a lot of things the president is doing and it is very difficult for m e to recognize him as a religious man. However, he at least attempted to enable the American people to be united and perform a good deed showing m oral support for the allies. Although I don’t understand your views that there is no God, I still respect them since you have the right to your own opinion. But thankfully there is a m ajority of us who do believe in God and w ill continue to pray, not because of the war or because President Bush says so, but because w e feel good about it and it does provide us with some “ hope” during this and other troubled times.

E l e c t r i c a l E n g in e e r in g Technology_______■ - ____________' Strong faith____ _ Editor: The letter by the Organization, Student Atheists o f ASU, that appeared in the State Press is a clear indication that there are some people who are so much into their own beliefs that they fail to see and understand the beliefs of others. In response to President Bush’s call fo r a “ National D ay of P ra y e r,” the organization quotes, “ it saddens us to see Bush spew his propaganda by creating excessive entanglement of church and state. ” Well it saddens m e even m ore that you accuse worshipers of wishful thinking and that there’s not hope in prayer. First of all, prayer isn’t used just for hope or asking fo r necessities; it enables the individual to internally express their deepest emotions to the One Great Supreme Being most of us believe w ill offer some sort o f salvation aw ay from these troubled times. If these beliefs are taken away from us who else can w e turn to? I understand your point that prayers didn’t stop both world wars, Korea, Vietnam and the current gulf war. I also understand your point that it takes human effort to both start and stop a war. But don’t you feel that prayer w ill enhance people’s willingness to actually go through, with w ar and eventually I haveno comment... censored and that protesters should not be p u b licly sta tin g th e ir w ell-in fo rm ed opinions. I keep hearing those people who are for this w ar shouting about how we are killing people in the gulf by protesting the war. Well, if this w ar continues, w e’ll be seeing just what is killing people over there. It w ill be artillery shells, missiles, planes, tanks, bullets, grenades, n erve gas, biological and possibly nuclear weapons. I f you support this war, you better be prepared to see the cost of protecting this imaginary “ freedom o f democracy” in the Middle East. I ’m not! Jason Newsom Graduate Student, Social Psychology > ft* World W ar H over again in the congervitive Midwest.: There is a fever of patriotism blazing Across the region. Old businesses that neglected their flagpoles in recent years ate how raising Old Glory in honor of our troqpis in the Persian Gulf. I f fla g sales are any barometer, more homes a re displaying the fam iliar red, white and blue than ever before. In many towns in this state, flags are on display along every main street. F or the past several days, this observer has been driving throughout Indiana, Illinois and Ohio, to listen to ordinary citizens. What has impressed me has been the noticeable public display of patriotic wares. A lot o f people are. sporting red, white and blue pins who normally wouldn’t because patriotism at a time like this has suddenly become important. Businesses, in particular, are falling in line, sponsoring enormotls flags in prominent locations, while instituting programs for employees to support our troops. Other popular items of interest in these parts, include toilet paper showing Saddam Hussein’s head and “ Beast of Baghdad” voodoo dolls. In m y discussion with random citizens, I ’ve found universal support for U S. m ilita ry personnel but no autom atic endorsement o f President Bush’s Persian Gulf policy. The feeling is that w e’re in this thing now, so w e’d better support our troops. But if casualties mount, who knows how long such support will last? There is great praise for the 30,000 women who are serving among our 500,000 troops. Women here have forgotten the heart­ rendering scene of mothers saying good-bye to young children. When I ’ve asked women about their reaction to seeing fem ale compatriots in gunnery support positions, few have been enthusiastic. Most seem to think that by sending fem ale soldiers into delicate support positions, our nation has betrayed one o f the most civilized ideas of Western culture — women should have preferential treatment and be protected by more brutish males. I suspect there is widespread support for the w ar in these parts because the Pentagon has learned several public relations lessons from Vietnam. Reporters have been forced to join Pentagon-approved correspondent pools and have agreed to m ilitary escorts in terview s, along w ith “ security f e y a s^r o a^ l lw ifffo m the battle no blood, no *~ J " ,:^ ^ e w : ^ ^ ^ m S ^ T O truction on âstory ofth e inevitable iücanbul-ujk A ware of th fd am aged d n elo morale from the dead | ring from Vietnam. the Pentagon has announced weeks ahead there w ill be no honor ce i o ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ f c lover Air Force Base in Dover, DeL/wmSfe remains are inspected, dressed and casketed before arrangements are made to ship them home. Cameras have been kept away from areas where re-usable m etal caskets are taken off m ilitary transport planes. The dead will only be saluted at their burial place of internment. With little bad news to impact the public, the Pentagon seems to be sitting pretty. U. S. deaths only seem to be reported after a dazzling list o f combat accomplishments. And where they a re released, the Pentagon instructs the press that they must be reported in perspective and not become the story. Of course, none of this seems to bother people here. While journalists have been c o m p la in in g v o c ife r o u s ly about the straitjacket placed upon them, the public doesn’t want to hear any naysaying. This is anotner battle the Pentagon is winning. Last week, the Los Angeles Times released a poll that showed 78 percent of Americans approve o f the Pentagon’s restrictions on the media. With so many U. S. troops in the gulf, or prepared to go sometime soon, everyone I ’ve met in. these parts seems to know someone who is involved in the conflict. This tempers our citizenry’s nature to question how we got involved in this w ar to begin with. While citizens are transfixed by events in the gulf, there is little attention to the killings that are happening in our midst. Since the Middle East offensive started, more that 75 N ew Yorkers have been shot dead or otherwise murdered, several times the American casualties reported killed in the gulf. And what about the post-traumatic stress disorders our troops are likely to encounter once they come home. Studies of previous conflicts suggest that the psychological problems triggered by w ar affect at least 20 and up to 40 percent of combat veterans. Citizens may be waving their Hags today, but w ill they rem em ber to offer swift counseling when our troops return? This is a question and potential cost few here want to address. Page 6 State Press Friday. February 8.1991 ASU W est to open on-campus daycare By DIANE SANTORICO State Press ASU West is in the process of developing an on-campus child care center for its students, faculty and staff, who are forced to use off-campus facilities. ASU West Provost Vernon Lattin said the University Center Building will house the day-care center, adding that it will be designed to hold 32 to 60 children, aged 2-years and older. The project is in the planning stages, and will not be completed until fall 1991, he said. Lattin, w hile adm itting the center would be rela tively sm all, said it w ill help m any students and working adults who are raising children and attending school. “ It is a very high priority for the faculty and m yself,” he said. Lattin said he is not sure how many children are eligible for child care at the west campus but that his office is compiling a survey to estimate the need. Lattin added that he is thankful for the help provided by off-campus day-care centers. Judy Knudson, ASU West’s vice provost for University Relations, said the key to the relationship between ASU West and the community day-care centers involves the centers’ willingness to keep track o f the demand for child care. In return, ASU West has helped the day-care facilities by advertising for them through campus flyers. Barbara Kraver, director of community education for the Washington School District in Phoenix — home to 16 local day-care facilities — said they are m ore than prepared to help the ASU West community solve their child-care problems. “ The Sweetwater location has deceived, in the last week, about 20 calls, 11 (callérs) of which want to put their children on a list for preschool in September,” she said, adding that there are three children of ASU West students currently at the Sweetwater location. The Sweetwater center, which is across the street from the west campus, cares for children 3-years and older, K raver said. K raver said the facility accommodates the needs of the ASU students by offering hourly rates, so parents can leave their children there for a few hours while attending classes.

But Matthew Betz, ASU vice provost, for planning, said that the University will address the concerns of ASU neighbors. “ The Master Plan itself cannot answer that question,” Betz said. The Master Plan w ill be a land-use planning document that w ill help guide the Master Plan accused o f over looking problems presented by fraternities future growth o f the U niversity-over the next 20 years, ASU officials said. In addition to excluding the communities near the campus, Wittenberg said the presentation did not address problems presented by fraternity houses on the south end of the campus. “ When (residents) have to call the police that often, it’s a problem,” he said, adding that he hopes the University w ill address the problem, even if not in the Master Plan. Wittenberg cited noise and inappropriate behavior as the problems most frequently cited in the neighborhood adjacent to the fraternity halls. Jennus Burton, associate vice president for business affairs, said the plans were meant to be flexible. “ W e strongly encourage input from any person who has an interest,” he said. Adrian Fontes, Associated Students of ASU College of Education senator, said bicycle traffic seemed to be a primary concern of the campus and community. “ We w ill definitely be working on the ideas presented by everybody at the meeting,” said Fontes, the sole student on the task force. One alternative that received positive feedback at the hearing was separating bike paths from pedestrian areas, Fontes said, adding that bicycle paths could be located behind buildings rather than on m all areas in front of them. Despite some criticism o f the initial planning alternatives, Wittenberg said he is glad he had the opportunity to comment to the task force, “ W e really give them credit for including and seeking our input in the planning,” he said. Displays of the plans are in Hayden L ib ra ry and the Tem pe Library for viewing. The task force w ill present a draft of the Master Plan to the public April 16.

By LORENZO SIERRA Jr. State Press I f hospitals took in wrestling squads, ASU would be first in line as the Sun Devils have fought injuries as much as they have battled other teams. This weekend’s matches are no different as the seventhranked Sun Devils travel to Iowa to take on No. 4 Iowa State and No. 2 Iowa. F or the second straight week, the team will not be able to field a complete squad. “ W e’re sending a skeleton crew again,” Coach Bobby Douglas said. “ It’s difficult to win when you have to forfeit.” Last week, ASU forfeited matches in the 126-, 134- and 177-pound weight classes at the Cowboy Classic in Stillwater, Okla. This week, the team will be giving both Iowa teams six free team points for forfeiting the 177-pound weight class. G. T. Taylor (167) is out for 10 days with a shoulder injury and will not compete this weekend. Rob Holland will take his place and leave 177 vacant. A t 118, Don Reyes is Still slightly out of condition after returning to the team last week. Shawn Charles (126) is craning off an ankle injury and is not yet 100 percent. Marco Sanchez (134) is also not at full strength because of rib problems. Andy McNaughton (142) has been hampered by his ribs too. Douglas said R ay M iller’s (158) knee injury puts him “ day to day” on the roster. A ll these nagging injuries are especially detrimental as Iow a’s first seven wrestlers are ranked higher than seventh. The Hawkeyes are anchored by twin brothers Terry (126) and Tom (134) Brands, who are both ranked No. 1 and have a combined record of 64-1. The one spot where the.Sun 'Devils have no problem is heavyweight Mike Anderson. “ He determines if we win or lose,” Douglas said. Although R ex Holman has also suffered through an injury, Douglas said he is progressing very well. Tonight, the Sun Devils face Iowa State (11-1), who also has seven wrestlers ranked in the top 10. ASU meets unbeaten Iowa (21-0-1) Sunday. Hawkeye coach Dan Gable looks to this weekend’s match as a stepping stone to greater achievements. “ The Arizona State dual will give us a chance to see where .we stand against tough competition,’ ’ Gable said. “ I f we plan on winning the NCAA title, it’s important for us to wrestle well this weekend.” Baseball C o n t ia iic t l fr o m p age 15. zone.

A fter a particularly sloppy stretch o f play by both teams, MacLean made a short bank shot with 5:55 left and Murray followed by stealing the inbounds pass for an easy layup and a foul. He converted the free throw for a 48-33 lead. MacLean, coming off a season-high, 39-point effort against Pittsburgh last Saturday, added 16 points. Shon Tarver had 10 points for the Bruins. UCLA opened in a man-to-man defense, but switched to . looping pitch now, where last year you couldn’t tell the difference between his fastball and curve.” As Rees hopes to regain his form, ASU’s offense looks to once again put up eye-catching numbers after scoring in double figures for the fifth time this season in a 10-7 win over St. M ary’s College Wednesday. Not unexpectedly, the Sun Devils have been led by the “ Million Dollar Outfield” of Jim Austin, Mike K elly and Adams, who have hit for a combined .407 with 8 home runs and 34 R B I this year. Adams was ASU’s hero Wednesday, as the junior was 3-for-5 with a homer and 4 RBI. FSU will try to counter by starting sophomore Roger Bailey on the mound today. Bailey allowed three hits and two home runs in two innings in a no-decision against Duke Friday. “ It ’s going to be a big series,” Adams said. “ We really were not too pumped up for our last two games (against SMC), but w e’re really psyched for this series. Now that we have a lot m ore experience on this team, I think w e could go in there and hopefully win two out of three.” The Bruins led 24-18 at halftime as the Sun Devils shot just 33.3 percent in the first 20 minutes. ASU also sunk to 3-of-14 from three-point range for the game. Faulkner led the Sun Devils with 11 points, while center Isaac Austin, averaging 16.3 points per game, was held to seven points on 2-of-7 shooting. . „ R u tta i 5 A p a cl? e * 'C € M p € Jostens announces W EAR N O W WPEZy" (small monthly payments) Use a credit card and get it fast.
