Budget cuts Out o f this w orld place research in jeopardy B y N a t a l ie Y o u n g S t a t e P ress ' Slow ed pay increases fpr ASU faculty and a lack o f funding to pay graduate assistan ts may affect the U niversity’s ability to com pete for n ationally ranked p ro fesso rs and solidify federal funding for research. . . “Many times we are forced to turn down good research opportunities with brilliant graduate students because we have no way of paying them,” said Aditi Chattopadhyay, an assistant engineering professor at ASU. "Because I have been here for only two years, I haven't felt the immediate effects of the budget problem, but there is dissatisfaction among my peers.” Two years ago. the state recognized that ASU professors were being paid significantly less than their peers at other universities, said Senior Vice President Milton Glick. The state was supposed to provide funds over a three- to four-year period to bring faculty salaries up to market levels, he said. But the state failed to come through with the funding and, T urn to R esearch , page 15.

University officials said members of the campus community must work to increase the public’s understanding of ASU’s importance to the state’s overall well-being. At the first meeting of the year of the Academic Senate early Tuesday morning in the MU, ASU President Lattie Coor and Academic Senate President Dickinson McGaw each outlined issues they feel are important to the quality of the ASU community. "The future looks best for those organizations that are lean and agile,” said Coor to the audience of about 300.” Coor said he wants to use the budget cuts from the state to make the campus more efficient. “We have already taken a major step in that direction,” he said. “We are already ahead of the rest of the public because of the cuts that we have had to make.” The budget cuts have forced 155 layoffs and more than 300 positions to be eliminated from the payroll, figures Coor said were a conservative estimate. ’ McGaw said the budget cuts and layoffs had plunged morale “to the lowest I have experienced in my 25 years at ASU.” v “W hile the faculty and academ ic p ro fessio nals are demoralized, the classified staff are nearly traumatized in anticipating the next round of layoffs,” he added. McGaw said he wanted the Academic Senate to focus on the issues of health insurance, salaries, balance of teaching, research, service and public awareness. He said he felt problems in these areas were deteriorating University life for the faculty. “Even in the good times we did not get funding sufficient to m atch the cost of living, let alone to fund our m erit program,” he said of faculty salary increases. “Why do we have salary adjustments that never match real increases in the cost of living?” Coor said that four years ago the University documented that pay at ASU is behind the rest of the nation’s universities. “it is unconscionable to me that we see every year go by without any significant increase in salary for faculty and staff of this University,” he said. iS TnA TSE iPdR EeS S State Press photo ASU P resident Lattie Coor, who a d d re sse d the faculty yesterday morning, outlined several controversial proposals to deal with continued budgetary woes at the University. McGaw said he supports research and recognizes the achievements it brings the University, but said he thought the faculty should examine the balance between research and teaching at the University. “Are we placing sufficient emphasis on teaching in our reward structure?” he asked. “We need to ask whether the institution’s resources and incentive system support teaching as a top priority.” Coor said the administration protected academic budgets as much as it could, limiting the cuts to just 4 percent, but, “We W illiam s A ir Force Base, designated as a “superfund” site because of toxic contamination, has been proposed as the location for a possible third ASU campus, but Valley environmentalists doubt the base can be sufficiently cleaned up for such use. “I’d be real concerned about building a campus out there,” said Steve Brittle, coordinator for Don’t Waste Arizona, a statewide environmental group involved with toxic waste issues. “I wouldn’t let my kids go there.” ASU President Lattie Coor, meanwhile,' said that while the process of obtaining the property has not approached the stage where much detail has been worked out, it is his assumption that the state would “ensure that it (the part of Williams to be used as a campus) is safe and habitable.” . He added that ASU would also ensure the safety of the location. The Arizona Board of Regents decided at its annual retreat in July to authorize ASU to pursue an option to buy a section of the base with the intent of developing a third campus. The U.S. government has scheduled to close the base by September of 1993. Mike Banfleteren, a spokesman for the Arizona Department of Environmental Quality (DEQ), said Williams is designated as a “superfund sight” by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency principally because of four contamination areas: • A one million gallon spill of JP4 jet fuel, which took place in a fuel storage area over a number of years and has now seeped into a "pearched aquifer” (an underground water table above die main water table). • An area contaminated with World War II vintage radioactive gauges and dials removed from airplanes and encased in a concrete block. • A firefighter training facility contaminated with petroleum products that were used to set airplanes on T u r n t o S u p e r f u n d , p a g e 19 .

Students living in Manzanita, PV West, PV East and PV Main residence halls are finding few places to park after half the lot designated for diem, Lot 51, was converted to a visitor lot this summer. “I think this school is money hungry,” said Tanya Poliak, a PV East resident. “They need to do something because there is not enough spaces according to the amount of students who own cars. They have been giving out too many decals for the amount of parking spaces that are available.” Linda Riegel, assistant director of Parking and Transit Services, said 383. parking decals have been sold for the 335 parking spaces available in Lot 51. In addition, of the 400 spaces in Parking Structure 5 that Parking Services has made available for dorm resident overflow, 253 decals have been sold. Riegel said the relocation of the visitor parking lot happened when McClintock Hall residents lo st their parking privileges at Tem pe C enter. Parking Services' then designated the former visitor lot as a parking area for McClintock Hall residents. She said they also decided to move the visitor lot because v isitors w ere getting lost and receiving citations because they did not know where to park. “In losing the visitor lot we had nothing to serve the campus on the north side,” Riegel said. Lot 51 seemed to be a good location for the v isito r p arking lot because it is easily identifiable for direction and because of nearby crosswalks, Riegel said. “In doing lot checks, we found that Lot 51 was 50 percent vacant during the night,” she said. “That gives us the best indication on how residents are using that lot;” ASU Parking Services coordinated with Residence Life to designate part of Structure 5 as residence hall parking because of the reopening of PV West. Dorm residents were sold a parking decal for Structure 5 at a reduced rate of $45, instead of the usual $105 charged to park in the structure. Students living in the four dorms said that even with the additional space made available in Structure 5, there are still not enough spaces to accommodate all of them. Jennifer Como, a PV East resident, said she does not leave campus with her car because she fears she will lose her parking space. “I have people come and pick me up and I also have my parents com e out from Scottsdale to get me,” Como said. Poliak said because Lot 51 is almost always full, she has been forced to park her car in the more distant stadium parking lot (Lot 59). She said she fears for her safety on the longer walk back to her dorm. “As a female, 1 don’t think it is safe to walk from the stadium parking lot to my dorm at nine or 10 at night,” Poliak said. Poliak said many of the dorm residents are having to park in Lot 59 because the additional parking in Structure s is filled. Como said she may start a petition drive with her friends at PV East in hopes of getting ASU to listen to their complaints. Riegel said she is aware of the Students’ complaints and that the parking problem exists because of the unexpected reopening of PV West, an opening they did not anticipate until next year. To alleviate some of the parking problem, Riegel said, ASU Parking Services is citing vehicles that have no resident decal and are parked illegally in the area designated in Structure 5 for resident parking. She said she hopes this will create the necessary Space for residents to park. “At the end of the week we will re-look at the situation and see if there is adequate space or not,” Riegel said. If there still appears to be a parking problem, Riegel said, they would move to a plan that would expand the are? set aside in Structure 5 for resident parking.

Residents, roused by scenes of destruction the day before in southern Florida, had boarded up and fled. The storm, blamed for the deaths of at least 17 people in Florida and the Bahamas, was estimated to have caused $15 billion to $20 billion in damages in south Florida. If those preliminary figures hold up. it would be by far the most expensive natural disaster ever in the United States. Andrew began lad in g coastal parishes by nightfall. Bob Sheets, director of the National Hurricane Center, said the doughnut-shaped wall of the storm around the eye had struck the marshy coastland. with 140 mph winds, shortly before 10 p.m. Grand Isle, Louisiana’s only inhabited barrier island, was completely under water, officials said. ■?:.

Earlier, hurricane-force winds over 74 m ph prev en ted s h e riff’s d ep u ties from, responding to rescue calls from a stranded 60foot boat and stalled cars in Terrebonne Parish south of New Orleans, even though the storm’s eye was still about 40 miles offshore, civil defense coordinator Morris Duplantis said. Lockport, east of Terrebonne Parish, lost power at 7:15 p.m. amid reports of 100 mph wind gusts. “ W e’ve got trees in the road and power outages all over the place. We’ve got 2,700 people in shelters and more out looking for shelters,” Lafourche Parish sh eriffs Maj. Sonny Hanson said, A turn to the north late Tuesday meant New Orleans could expect 100 mph winds and more hurricane than previously forecast, according to the National Hurricane Center, But the city still was expected to be spared a direct hit as the storm moved farther west toward low-lying Cajun country, The eye, moving just off the coast, was headed for Morgan City, an oil town virtually deserted during the day. “ This swath o f damage is going to be somewhere around 40 to 50 miles wide,” Sheets said Flooding was feared as the storm began moving parallel to the coast, pummeling a wide swath with heavy rain. The storm ’s forward motion also slowed to 13 mph from 16 mph earlier in the day. Gov. Edwin Edwards declared a state of emergency for all of Louisiana and wrote to the W hite House requesting a d isaster declaration before the hurricane hit. More than 2 m illion people in M ississippi, Louisiana and Texas were asked or told to leave their coastal homes, Earlier, traffic heading north from the Cajun coastland was bumper to bumper for as far as the eye could see on U.S. 90 — more :than 3bal/2ea miles at one bend. Traffic was also tied up on Interstate 49. The evacuation orders carried added weight because most people had seen pictures of the destruction in Florida, where parts of soutHem Dade County, below Miami, were left in ruins. “ We saw the destruction in Miami, and w hile we love our hom e, safe is more important,” Marti Long, of the New Orleans suburb of Kenner, said as her husband, Bart, walked their dogs outside a Waffle House in Hattiesburg, Miss.

STATE PRESS s TAFF TT V M R M ttN — HE HIS AM IDEA FOR A MOVIE / W ives see hubbies for w hat they aren’t A fter listening to B arbara Bush talk about her husband, l asked the blonde: “What would you say about me?” r “W hat do you m ean?” she said. “W ell, B arbara Bush ju st publicly stated that her husband is, and I quote: ‘The strongest, the most decent, the most caring, the wisest and yes, the healthiest man I know.’” “I heard her,” said the blonde. “So, those are very nice things for a w ife to say about her husband. And I’m just curious about what you’d say about me.” She thought for a While and said: “I guess I would say you are reasonable clean.” After a long silence, I said: “Is that all?” Her brow furrowed and she said: “Oh, I forgot. I ’m always surprised at how well you cook when you have to.” “That’s it? What about my other qualities?” She said, “Do you want anything from the kitchen?“ and left the room. I suppose that wasn't bad: I’m clean, nudge-friendly and handy in the kitchen. But her response aroused my curiosity. What do other women say about their husbands? Are they the wisest, the most decent, the most caring, the strongest and the healthiest men they have ever known, as Barbara said of George? So this morning I took a brief, informal poll of some married women, here were their comments. (I have omitted their names for the sake of maintaining Family Values.) “He ought to quit smoking.” “He doesn’t beat me. He’s a good provider. He doesn’t drink or gamble. He showers once a day and keeps his toenails clipped. He^s kind of a boring guy, but he’s a good egg with a good heart and he puts up with my crap.” “I haven’t seem him drunk in a month. Another month and it’s an all-time record. “He’s really cute, but he takes the covers and I hate that. I can’t stand that. And when he’s really crabby, he makes the dog get off the bed.” “There’s this male trait. He says he’s going to do the dishes and you assume that' means washing the dishes, maybe drying them and putting them away and cleaning the countertops and stove. But, no, he just washes the dishes and the kitchen still looks awful. But he mixes a great drink.” “What I would say about my husband would depend on whether it was before a national audience or at a tavern. It would also depend on whether he yelled at me. Then I’d say all kinds of mean stuff. But, in general, he’s smart and a hard worker, but he’s got a bad temper.” .'■> “He’s a good golfer. I don’t play the game myself, but I assume he must be good because he spends half of his life practicing or playing. If he put in that kind of energy at his work, he wouldn’t have been stuck in the same job all these years.” . » “I think his finest quality is that he doesn’t waste his mind watching a lot of trash on TV. Actually, he sits down every night and turns the set on, but in 10 minutes he falls asleep and that’s it for the evening. He’s not the most exciting guy in the world but at least he doesn’t hang out in bars. It’s hard to sleep on a bar stool, I guess.” “He’s faithful. I’m sure he has never even looked at another woman. Maybe that’s because when we got married, I told him that if he ever did, I would wait until he was sleeping, the I would slip an ice pick between his ribs. And he dresses well because I buy all of his clothes, or else he’d look like a bum on the street.” “He’s good at yard work.” “Yes, I heard Barbara Bush's speech. And my husband is the most caring man I know, too. He cares about the Cubs, the Bears, the Bulls, and every other stupid sports show on TV. Even bass fishing. He’s big but I can ’t say that he’s the strongest man I know because I ’ve never seen him lift anything heavier than a beer can and the channel switcher.” “He is nice to my cat. I don’t think he likes the cat, but he pretends that he does to please me. That shows that he is a decent, caring person. So I wonder why the cat doesn’t like him. Maybe he’s mean to the cat when I’m not around, that’s the thing about marriage. Do you really know someone?” This made me feel better about being a mere clean, nudgefriendly cook. And it appears to confirm what I suspected. If you want to hear your wife say you are the strongest, most decent, most caring, wisest and healthiest man she knows, here’s how you do itrRun for president. And get yourself about 20 points behind in the polls. KRIS MAYES, Editor KEN BROWN, Managing Editor D J.

T his Ju ly , a concert featuring th e rap group N aughty by N atu re was canceled because P hoenix city officials: feared violence. Eric Jones, who books events for Phoenix Municipal Stadium where the event was to take place, said,“Any event that brings out th at type of crow d has the potential for violence.” He said that a Naughty by Nature concert w ould draw a crow d that would consist largely of gang members, and on that basis the concert was canceled. Because o f the fact that earlier in the summer, gunshots were fired at a concert featuring another rap group, 2nd If None, th ey fe lt that they had a reason to fear violence at this concert. because gang members liked them? There must be another reason that the concert was canceled. A rap concert took place last weekend featuring the rap groups DAS EFX arid Nice and Sm ooth. There were no reports of violence related to the music, and, as I recall, there were a large number of people in the audience-who looked very white and very preppy — and looked nothing lik e the dreaded gang member crowd that is always feared. So what is the type of crowd that a rap concert draws? . Ju st because there are a few gang members at a rap concert, does that make it a “gang member crowd,” therefore making rap "gang member music?” Is it hard to believe that anyone other than gang members likes rap? Were all those white boys and girls I saw at that rap concert really gang members in disguise? If they weren’t, maybe they all secretly wished they were gang members, or maybe they all secretly wished they were black. I don’t know. I heard that drunks and drug addicts can be very violent, so does that m ean a Guns N’Roses concert should be canceled because there is the possibility of violent behavior?

It was hot — 113 degrees to be exact — it was crowded and it was completely full of energy, new energy that made me very excited. The heat put me in one of those kind of trance-like moods — you know, the kind where you stand looking on what seems like a moving picture that you’re not a part of. *■ I wandered through the crowd feeling the warmth that came from the idealistic smiles, young and old. I shook hands and met people who were enthused, almost hopeful, for a change. Yes, for CHANGE. I ventured to the rear of the headquarters building to see if there was possibly a gap in the crowd where I could stand and breathe and maybe even cool off. A phone, the only phone hooked up, rang. Curiosity overwhelmed me and I picked it up. The man said he was a new citizen to Arizona Coming from California. He was watching the Republican Convention and told me he was, and I quote, “nauseated.” He w anted to know where he could register to be a Democrat in Arizona. “A new Democrat in Arizona,” I thought to myself. “How wonderful.” George Bush all week long was trying to instill some kind o f amnesia in Americans young and old. I hope like me, Arizonans realize that the energy and enthusiasm required for change is something that old George just doesn’t have in him. You can’t pull the curtain over our eyes, George.

Of course, he did also include some of the usual liberal rhetoric. He claim s that the “revolution” has gotten its message across to the police “gang“ and that we are seeing too much of the “innocent“ white trucker being beaten. O f course, the ju stic e system is responsible for all of. this, and those like the guy who tried to “take out a few cops” and got shot in return are the real victims. V However, the main point seems to be Mr. T riche’sa p p a re n t satisfaction at seeing a Korean store owner treating him with respect, According to him, this shows that an “attitude adjustment” has taken place. Well, an attitude adjustment has taken place. Most people are now m aintaining a veneer o f respect and helpfulness for those in the riot areas, as shown by the new attitudes and by the support for new inner-city programs. But behind the scenes, citizen s and businessmen are preparing for the next round o f the race riots. C alifornians are* arming themselves at record rates, and store owners are improving their security and community support networks. Needless to say, the outcome of the next riots will be very different indeed. It should soon prove that Mr. T riche’s gloating is premature, since below the friendly face of every inner-city store owner is an itchy finger on the trigger of a 12-gauge under the counter. M ark E* Sullivan Vice Chairman Campus Republicans Wednesday, August 26, 1992 Page 6 St a t e P ress Students denied class overrides B y C a r o l A n n H ansen S t a t e P r ess Repercussions of University budget cuts reared their ugly heads once again Tuesday when hundreds o f students requesting overrides were turned away from overcrowded classes. “It’s like this University doesn’t want us to graduate,” Beth McKieman, a senior math major, said. “If I don’t get this class I'm gonna end up spending another semester at this school.” M cK iernan said she spent Tuesday trying to get an override into an upper division religion class she had unsuccessfully tried to preregister for. “I have been trying to get this class for two and a half years,” she said. “I am starting to really get down on this school,” Leonard Gordon, associate dean of the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences, said this year’s classroom overcrowding is a direct result of the severe budget cuts the University has suffered. “I wish we could fully address the problem, but our department is caught in a terrible dilemma,” he said. Gordon said cuts in funding have left his college with “practical problem s” th at ■do not allow for the fu rth er expansion of classes. Carol Cesaretti. a senior political science major, said She “had no major problems" getting an override into a crowded philosophy class. “But if I wasn’t a graduating senior, I wouldn’t have gotten ■it,” she said. G ordon said when instructors attem pt to give more overrides into their classes than the capacity of the room, they violate codes set by the fire marshal. Although overcrowding is a problem that has affected the en tire U niversity, G ordon said the E nglish and math departments have been impacted the most. “Every student is required to take courses in English and M ath 117, so the pressure on those departm ents is extraordinary,” he said. Christine Everhart Heifers, a faculty associate who teaches five 200-level classes for the English department, said she has had an “enormous” number of override requests this year. “l am dealing with more override requests than I ever have before,” she said,, “It is a really frustrating position. I could easily fill two more sections with all of the students requesting overrides,” Heifers said she has had at least six students in each of her classes, which seat only 25, try to get overrides. “There is a feeling of upset,” she said. “Some people are going to have to play the Waiting game and catch courses in the spring.” Gordon said the English department has expanded Ba­ dasses as much as it can, “and there is a point at which (the department) can’t give any more overrides.’’. Wendy Wilkins, chairwoman of the English department, said she has not noticed an increase in override requests or classroom overcrowding this year. “It’s been bad for a long time,” she said. “We have been having this problem for many years.” •W ilkins ¿aid m ost professors in her departm ent are generous about giving overrides, but, “We can’t have people standing in the halls taking a class.” IK D $500OFF P T T T rr U K ;.

McHugh said Smith was “yery fatigued and disoriented” and also had mild heat exhaustion when he was found lying on his back in a brushy wash about 10:40 a.m. Smith was reported missing about 3:30 p.m. Monday after a friend went to check on him, according to McHugh. Friends said Smith suffered a stroke a few years ago and sometimes becomes disoriented while walking and he may have gotten lost after wandering from his home. Smith developed the yellow fever vaccine in the 1930s along with Dr. Max T heiler at the laboratories of the Rockefeller Foundation in New York City. Smith did field trials in Brazil and Colombia for the vaccine, which is credited with saving thousands of lives in such areas as South America and Africa and was heavily used during World War II. Smith moved to Tucson in 1984 and joined the University of Arizona faculty in 1958 as a professor of microbiology. He retired in 1966.

But while image-improving will be one of the purposes of the Downtown Tempe Management Group Advisory Steering Committee when it first convenes on Sept. 1, most of those involved feel that implementing more effective management techniques will be its main goal. “I think the issue is how we. manage the downtown area to the likings of the folks who are down there,” Tempe Vice Mayor Neil Giuliano said. “We’re at the point now where (city officials) are going to turn it over to this group and have them tell us what they think will work.” The 25-member committee, which plans to meet at least once a month, hopes to compile a series of recommendations to present to the Tempe City Council within the next year. The council has set aside $50,000 to fund the committee, with the money to be spent how the members see fit. It most likely could be used to hire a staff member to begin the process of coordinating committee efforts. The group is convening in the shadow of negative accounts from the Mill Avenue area, ranging from traffic congestion to gang-related activity. Also, downtown Tempe businesses are facing increasing competition from places such as the Arizona Center in downtown Phoenix and the Scottsdale Pavilions. Tempe Deputy Community Development Director Dave Fackler, who is the city’s representative on the committee, said he hopes the efforts will result in more effective ways to convince prospective shoppers and clubgoers that they should frequent downtown. “Right now, I think that people (downtown) are doing well in promoting their individual businesses,” Fackler said. “But there’s no promotion of the area as a whole to attract people from around the Valley.” $NEED SOME FAST CASH$ Í We Pay Up to i * t « . .

Mill Ave., said the committee will have to confront dilemmas that have been plaguing the downtown area for years. “I don’t think it’s just management and promotion. We also have to deal w ith parking problem s, security and maintenance,’’Shanks said. “It’s a duty of general problem­ solving, and all of the issues should receive attention from our businesses.” An issue that could turn into one of major discussion' is security. Tempe provides police to patrol the downtown area and also pays for private security during weekend nights. The city’s contract with VIP expires next year, and the city has hinted that the individual businesses might be responsible for paying for private security after that time. “The City Council made a decision to pay for that, but quite frankly, that’s something that should be handled by the private side,” Fackler said. “Come next year at budget time, the city might choose to no longer fund private security for downtown.” W ith this ad, Expires Septem ber 1 5 ,1 9 9 2 I n IISISlSISJSfSMSISiSISISISMSiSfSiSJSJSfSfSISISISfSISISISfSISrSlSlSIËUSISJSISlSlQlSlQJSISfSllIsll r— ------ — - Does your ree center have a wait problem Students join the prestigious Western Reserve Club for just $39.®® p er m onth, no in itiatio n fee*.

Along with other high school teen-agers, ASU students and a hip, adult crowd an estimated weekend evening gathering between 7,000 and 10,000 — Brown plants herself on the brick-paved sidewalks during weekend nights to hang out. The street is lined with bars and clubs she is too young to enter. So she spends most of her time in front of the popular coffee house on the comer of Mill Avenue and Sixth Street. Occasionally, a fun evening is interrupted by the annoying jeers of a sheet comer evangelist. Early this year, she had to endure the blare of Beethoven and Bach. Authorities thought t b i t pum ping classical music onto the overflowing Mili Avenue would mellow the crowd. Sometimes she sees one of her friends get a ticket for riding up the street more than once. Cruising is a no-no bn Mill, Or more seriously in the past she has had to retreat into the crowd to avoid getting caught in the middle of a fist fight. But, “It’s something to do," Brown said. “I just like to go and see who's there. I like seeing a bunch of different types of people hanging out and having fun.” The nurtu rin g hands o f com m unity leaders have transformed a mile stretch of Mill Avenue, which hosted headshops and biker bars less than five years ago, into Tempe’s jewel Of culture, class and charisma. Clothing shops, coffee houses and book stores welcome students and out-oftown visitors during the day, and band-playing bars and dancing clubs entice ASU students and other youth into coming downtown in the evening. Essentially, the street is coming along just as Tempe Mayor Harry Mitchell would like. Bike paths have replaced crowded parking lanes, the sidewalks are wider, artsy furniture is located on every block and a handful of colorful but tasteful businesses have set up shop. Until last weekend, things were relatively calm on Mill Avenue. There haven’t been any outbursts since October of 1991, when the windows of six Tempe businesses were smashed, people got trampled and police, using what they called restrained force. Maced some people and arrested 20 others. No one has been knifed recently, like the duel stabbing that Ôw occurred in November of 1990. Two men in their early 20s were treated for stab wounds in the back after being the unlucky “chosen” as a proving ground for wanna-be gang members. There wasn’t any gun fire ringing out too near the bustling street, although there was some two or three blocks away over the summer. There were no more m ajor skinhead rival rumbles and the gangs seemed to acknowledge that Mill was deemed neutral ground. Then early Sunday morning, Charles Stokes, 19, was shot dead in the parking lot of Bank of America. Apparently, he was getting ready to leave in a friend’s car when a group of men approached, an argument ensued, several shots were fired and Stokes later died at Scottsdale Memorial Hospital. Police said the shooting did not appear to be gang-related. Police and Mitchell sgid the shooting was an isolated incident, though grossly unfortunate, and the street is still safe. Mill Avenue will survive the shooting to become a shining example of what can happen when the city, the business community and ASU work together. “People may be nervous,” M itchell said, referring to merchants and citizens when they hear or encounter violence. “But it hasn’t stopped the football crowd from coming down, or any of the events like the merchant’s fair, Oktoberfest or the block party.” M itchell said he is content with the way the street is progressing. He pointed out that Tempe has taken many steps to combat violence. Curfews for the youngest of the crowd were imposed, a gun ordinance was passed, cruising was nixed, the street perform ers were booted for drawing too much negative attention and police patrols were beefed up. “I don’t think that what happened over the weekend will prevent people from enjoying Mill,” he said. Mitchell said Washington, D.C., has similar crowds in areas and similar activités and that city’s homicide rate is much higher.. “I think people feel comfortable. 1 go down there with my family. I think it helps people to look around and see security. They feel safer,” he said. During the summer, Tempe considered enacting a no-gangattire ordinance to prevent Mill Avenue from attracting an unsavory crowd. Public outcry snuffed the idea. The city also experimented with blocking off the street and later took the barriers down. The barriers proved only to condense an unruly crowd into a smaller area. “With any successful place where large numbers of people congregate, cities have had to learn from their experience,” Mitchell said. “And I don’t think there’s any city that’s going through what we’re going through.

Crime activity has decreased, agreed police and the city. In the coming months, football and other seasonal activities will likely replace the dependable draw to Mill Avenue, According to Tempe police Sgt. Al Taylor, officers Will have to devote more of their attention to the other events. “It takes a tremendous amount of manpower to control large crowds,” Taylor said. “Wè need those officers in other places. But we’ll continue to staff that area as best we can.” Frank McGuire, president of the Mill Avenue Merchants Association, said poljce presence has quelled most of the fears among merchants and their patrons. “I think the police and the city have done a good job in the past six months,” McGuire said. “They’ve been able to get the word out that things like cruising aren’t going to be tolerated.” McGuire does not anticipate any recurring riots, shootings or life-threatening fights. Any violent types have seen the police and left, he said. Futhermore, with the Chase credit-processing center on the Comer of Mill Avenue and University nearing completion, and a movie theatre in the works, a more diverse and older crowd is expected to converge on the street. Gayle Shanks, owner of Mill’s Changing Hands Bookstore since 1974, said she is hoping for “a more mixed-age crowd.” “Perhaps a new theatre will bring out people earlier in the evening. They could go to a movie and then follow it up with a cup of coffee.” .‘ Shanks said problems on Mill Avenue usually occur in the late evening after the bars close. “Before then, we get a lot of nice families and a good mix of people (agès) 20 to 70,” she said. In the next five years, Mitchell said his hopes for Mill Avenue are to see “more of the same.” “Mill is getting more manageable and it’s physically a much more attractive area,” he said. ‘T he sales tax figures have also increased every year since we started redevelopment.” * - “I hope there’s more retail places open at night, more restaurants and more of the old businesses rennovated,” he added. Brown said she hopes that in five years — somewhere around her junior year at ASU — Mill “is still there.” “I’m not sure it will be. Lately, when I go down there, there’s seems to be a lot mòte fighting,” she said. “I t’s pathetic. It seems like everyone used to go, have a good time and get along.

Estimated loss is $600. Tem pe p o lic e rep o rted the fo llo w in g in cid en ts on Tu esd a y: • An armed robbery was committed at the Walgreens at 925 W. Baseline Road when a man buying merchandise pulled out a revolver and demanded money from the register. The man grabbed a handful of cash from the open register drawer before he fled the store on foot. Witnesses described the suspect as a ' 5-foot-6 black male with a goatee, between the ages of 30 and 40, wearing a white button-down shirt and blue jeans. • Three ASU students reported that a man driving alongside their car on Hayden Road pointed a small chrome-plated semi­ automatic handgun at them. The suspect, who was wearing a blue bandana, is described as a white or Hispanic male with dark hair, between the ages of 20 and 25. The man was last seen driving southbound on McClintock Drive in a tan or beige late 1980s Chevrolet Monte Carlo. • A resident at 615 S. Hardy Drive reported that a male standing in the parking lot of his apartment complex screamed racial slurs about Hispanics and fired a gun in the air. The man, who was standing in the parking lot with a small group of men and women, fled the scene before police arrived. The suspect is described as a medium-build white male with long, stringy brown hair. • A man was arrested for shoplifting and misdemeanor assault when he punched a security guard in the mouth as he V. attempted to steal a 12-pack of Bud Light beer from the Circle K at 802 S. Hardy Drive. The suspect’s three companions, who were waiting in a white pickup truck in the parking lot, escaped down a back alley. • An ASU student involved in an accident at Apache Drive and Rural Road was arrested for driving under the influence of alcohol. • An ASU student was arrested at the 6000 block of S. McKemy Street when he failed a field sobriety test after he was stopped for a traffic violation. • The manager at Chuy’s at 410 S. Mill Ave. was issued a citation for allowing an underaged person to remain on the premises of an establishment selling alcoholic beverages after police discovered an underaged ASU student inside.

P reient to cashier at tim e o f purchase u as a result, ASU professors have not received a significant pay increase in the past 11 years. “When the salaries are below the market, our faculty is ripe for raiding and many people are attractive to other universities,” Glick said. In spite of ASU’s research funding shortfalls, C. Diane Bishop, state superintendent for public instruction, said she feels that “ASU is chomping at the bit to climb in research.” A university’s research success is determined by the amount of federal grant monpy the university receives. Even though ASU receivés less funding than the University of Arizona, Bishop said she feels ASU is on the rise and will eventually close the gap. However, Ronald Barr, ASU associate vice president for research, said there are disparities in research funding between the two universities and that before ASU can pull even with UofA, it will have to receive additional fundings Currently, UofA receives three to four times more federal funding for research than ASU, Barr said. “If we continue to grow in the amount of funding we receive, then we know our faculty is getting better,” he said. “UofA ranks about 20 for research in the broad sciences and engineering and ASU ranks about 100.” Funding for research is a primary concern for faculty members and the administration because research is the only way professsors can be recognized nationally. The greater the recognition, the more attractive the university is to quality professors, and universities are judged by the caliber of their faculties, Barr added. “The budget situation becomes a problem in the context that our best faculty members are the ones that are most mobile and when they become disenchanted, they are likely to move,” Barr said. T here is a push fo r professors to bring in grants, C hattopadhyay said, but “if we ca n ’t a ttract the best (graduate) students to work on them, then we won’t get the necessary funding.” Chattopadhyay said staff morale decreases whën faculty members are pressured to do more research work without incentives. . “There must be other solutions,” she said. “Faculty are being asked to teach two or three courses a semester and then bring in grants on top of that.” Research and good teaching are inseparable, Bishop said, adding she is concerned that UofA’s former commitment, to research has now shifted to im proving undergraduate education. . . ‘ “Research is a long-term investment and shouldn’t be used to balance the books at the end of the fiscal year,” she said. In order to do effective research, people with extensive research experience must be hired, Bishop said, adding she is not sure that is the case at UofA. “UofA has promoted people with good management skills and not those who have achieved true distinction in the disciplines they are going to supervise,” she said. B ishop echoed the concern o f C hattopadhyay, and recognized the effect the budget crisis has had on the faculty. She said all three o f the state universities are battling significant budget shortfalls and in time ASU will stand out in research. “The state won’t be in this economic situation forever, and I am confident ASU will be able to achieve in spite of the budget,” Bishop said. ' P ag e 16 St a t e P ress W ednesday, A ugust 26, 1992 Low p ay leads to u n io n w h isp ers B y So n d r a R o b e r t o S t a t e P ress • In most occupations, new hires begin a job assuming the longer they stay, the more money they will make: Later down the road, they probably expect the newest employees to receive a starting pay that is significantly lower than their own current salary. But at ASU, and at other universities in dire financial; straits, faculty members have come to realize just the opposite - is true. It’s called salary compression and it has led some ASU faculty members to consider collective bargaining options, including unionization. “I think the faculty needs to decide whether they are better off standing alone or whether they are going to engage in collective action,” said Dickinson McGaw, president of ASU’s 152-member Academic Senate. “Our goal now is to collect facts about our salaries, how we are doing individually and collectively and then to examine how we could improve our prospects.” Salary compression stems mainly from a lack of adequate state funding needed to keep up with the competitive market costs of retaining qualified instructors. While faculty assistants and associates who have been at the University for a few years are enduring a tightened-budget Salary freeze, new assistants are hired at current competitive salaries. In the end, the quality o f education suffers because the more experienced professor becomes disgruntled or is recruited away by a higher-paying university. McGaw said using the Academic Senate as a bargaining liaison between the state and the facility is the primary consideration of the Senate at this time. But he said he has heard whispery calls for unionization among faculty members for the first time this year. ' If the faculty joined a union, members would join on a volunteer basis, McGaw said. The American Federation of T eachers Would p o ssib ly be selected as th e faculty representative, although no negotiations have begun, he said. McGaw added that hundreds of university faculties around the nation have joined unions, and their members’ yearly salaries are about $6,000 more than salaries of non-unionized faculty members. Two years ago, Arizona legislators recognized that university faculty salaries were about )5 percent below the national market and promised to bring them up to par within two to three years. That first year, they raised yearly instructor salaries 8 percent, 4 percent above an across-the-board state employee raise. But by the next fiscal year, the state budget crisis had hit a zenith and the plan was quietly dismissed. “We’ve got to make our case, Werve got to convince the state of the additional need for salary money,” said ASU Provost Milton Click. “By the same token, we’re going to look at balancing market and fairness. We must balance the two.” Department chairs throughout the University said salary inadequacies have had a negative impact on morale. “Something needs to be done,” said Retha Warnicke, history department chair, “It doesn’t matter to me how it’s done as long as some attempt is made to get every salary up to what it should be. "People do talk about it and it doesn’t make for good morale.” . Pier Baldini, foreign language chair, said of the 45 faculty associates in his department, approximately 10 to 15 percent are experiencing the inequities of salary compression, Baldini said the average salary of an incoming instructor is about $32,000 per year. But incumbent instructors three to four years their senior are making about $26,000. In addition, there are salary inequities between instructors who have equal amounts o f responsibility, but teach in different departments. McGaw estimates that salary differences in these cases are up to $20,000 for some departments. Although frustrations are running high, McGaw said there is not enough faculty support at this time for unionization. But the prospect will become “more valuable” if faculty members "continue to be denied adequate compensation and benefits.” FREE COPIES!

The studies, involving almost 70,000 men and women, suggest about 20 percent of all cataract cases may be attributed to smoking, said a researcher who found a link between the eye disease and smoking in an earlier study. But more research is needed to determine precisely how smoking damages the lens, Sheila W est o f the Dana C enter for Preventive Ophthalmology at Johns Hopkins' Hospital said in an editorial accompanying the studies in Wednesday’s Journal of the American Medical Association. “For now, it appears that the litany of ills associated with smoking is growing, as we add to it cataracts, the world’s leading cause of blindness,” she wrote. More than a million Americans undergo cataract surgery each year at a total cost of billions of dollars. The latest studies involved 17,824 male U.S. physicians tracked from 1982 through 1987 and 30,828 female U.S. nurses tracked from 1980 through 1988. In the Physicians’ Health Study, subjects who smoked 20 cigarettes or more a day were 2.05 times more likely to be diagnosed with a cataract than subjects who had never smoked, the researchers said. Of the 17,824 men, 1,188 smoked 20 or m ore cigarettes d aily , and 59 cataracts developed among them, a rate of 2.5 cataracts per 100 eyes. Among the 9,045 men who had never smoked, 228 cataracts developed, a rate of about 1.3 cataracts per 100 eyes. Smokers of fewer than 20 cigarettes daily had no increased risk compared with non- smokers, the researchers said. Further study is needed to determ ine w hether there is a “dose-resp o n se” relationship — that is, if the more you smoke, the greater your risk of developing cataracts, as other studies have suggested, said the chief author, Dr. William G. Christen. Former smokers had 1.4 times the risk of non-smokers for one type of cataract, but no increased risk for another, wrote his team, at Brigham and W om en’s H ospital and the Massachusetts Eye and Ear Infirmary. “This is the strongest data to date that suggest cigarette smoking may be a cause of cataracts,” said Christen, also an instructor at Harvard University Medical School. Sm oking may reduce .the num ber o f nutrients in blood plasma that keep the lens clear, the researchers said. In the Nurses’ Health Study, women who smoked 35 cigarettes or more daily had 1.63 times the likelihood of ¡undergoing cataract surgery as non-smoking women. The number of nurses in each category were not given. Past smokers of more than 35 cigarettes a day had a similarly elevated risk, even 10 years after they had quit, the researchers found. They said dam aged cells are compressed toward the center of the lens rather than being replaced. Unlike the doctors’ study, the nurses’ study show ed a proportional increase in cataract risk with the amount of cigarettes smoked. The nurses’ study was led by Susan E. Hankinson, an epidemiologist at Brigham and W om en’s H ospital and a research associate at Harvard Medical School. ' D r. R obert S perduto, Chief o f epidemiology at the National Eye Institute, said tw o stu d ies in w hich his agency participated Contradicted the latest studies.

Meanwhile, an America West executive attending the C om m erce and Econom ic D evelopm ent C om m ission’s meeting said later the Company may not file its Bankruptcy Court reorganization plan until next year. The company’s president had said previously that the plan would be filed during this year’s fourth quarter. In addition to the state, contributors to the loan and financial aid package include the Cardinals and Suns sports franchises, Dial Corp and other prominent Phoenix companies. Members of the state commission approved the $1 million loan request unanimously after hearing endorsements from business owners and government officials from around the state. Commission members stressed that the money for the loan comes from Arizona Lottery revenue designated for projects that create or retain jobs in the state. “No tax money — not one tax dollar —- is involved,” said James Marsh, state commerce director and chairman of the commission. He and other members cited the airline’s 8,100 jobs in the state and its role in supporting economic development. “I say we roll the dice and bet heavily on the success of America West,” said member Carolyn Warner, a former state superintendent of public instruction. A1 Frei, America West’s chief financial officer, earlier told the commission that the state and other lenders putting up parts of the $50 million package would have priority over other creditors if America West folds. After the meeting, Frei said America West hoped to obtain the $50 million in so-called “bridge” financing in early September, He said it could be early next year before the company fdes its reorganization plan. President Michael Conway had earlier said the plan would be filed in the fourth quarter. Along with the $1 million state loan, the $50 million package includes $42 million in other loans: $35 million from GPA Leasing, the Irish company that leases America West many of its planes, and $7 million from various Arizona companies. Rounding out the package is $7 million in other assistance, including $5 million in ticket prepurchases by Salt River Project and three unidentified companies and $2 million in airport rent deferrals offered by the city of Phoenix. A U.S. Bankruptcy Court judge presiding over America W est’s Chapter 11 reorganization case has scheduled a hearing Wednesday to consider the airline’s request to be allowed to take on between $43 million and $60 million in additional debt. Besides the state and GPA Leasing, loans also would come from Dial Corp, and First Interstate and Valley National banks, at $1.3 million each, and Bank of America Arizona, $1 million. Phelps Dodge Corp., a Phoenix-based mining company, and Phoenix Newspapers Inc., publisher of The Phoenix Gazette, The Arizona Republic and Arizona Business Gazette, each agreed to loan $550,000. A greeing to loan $250,000 each w ere the Phoenix Cardinals football team, the Phoenix Suns basketball team, real estate developer DMB A ssociates and El D orado Investment Co. El Dorado is a venture capital subsidiary of Phoenix-based Pinnacle W est Capital Corp., the parent company of Arizona Public Service Co. M ed ian i to announce his political plans at rally PHOENIX (AP) — Evan M echam ’s p o litical plans rem ain a closely guarded secret, but a key supporter said Tuesday he expects the impeached governor to enter the race for Republican John M cC ain’s U.S. Senate seat. Mecham said he would announce his plans Wednesday at a rally in Mesa. “I think he’s going to announce that he’s running,” said David Eisenstein, chairman of the Draft Mecham Committee; “At least that’s what I hope his announcement will be.” Mecham said he has made a decision, although he won't say what it is until the 7 p.m. rally at Mesa’s Centennial Hall. If he runs, it will be as an independent. He would have to collect petition signatures from more than 10.500 registered voters in the 10 days following the Sept. 8 primary to qualify for the ballot, ‘ E isenstein said response to the D raft M echam Com m ittee has been '‘very encouraging.” “We’ve.raised some money,” he said. “I don’t have a dollar amount, but I think we have a very substantial start.” Eisenstein estimated the campaign would cost $250,000, which is more than Democratic Candidates Claire Sargent and Truman Spangrud have raised, but only a fraction o f the $ 1.5 m illion M cCain h a s amassed. M echam said m oney was a factor in deciding whether or not to get into the race, but not as big a factor as it is for other candidates. “1 dòn ’t have to spend that first $2 million to get my name out there,” he said. “I think I have pretty good name recognition.” Phoenix p o llster E arl de Berge Said Mecham probably would hurt McCain by drawing off the votes of very conservative Republicans who otherwise would vote for the incumbent. The question, de Berge said, is whether M echam can draw enough votes from mainstream Republicans and Democrats to win. “And in this political year, I’d be reticent to say he can’t,” de Berge said. A poll conducted earlier this month by A rizona State U niversity pollster Bruce Merrill showed Mecham running a distant third in a race against McCain and either of the Democratic candidates. But de Berge, research director for the nonpartisan Behavior Research Center, said M echam ’s num bers could im prove if he actually gets into the race, especially if he is able to take advantage of the anti-incumbent mood of voters. “My instincts tell me this is a year when almost anything could happen,” he said. Mecham, 68, was elected governor in his fifth try for the office in 1986 and was impeached and removed from office two years later. He was, convicted in a Senate trial of im properly loaning m oney from a state protocol fund to his automobile dealership and interfering with a police investigation into an alleged death threat made by one of his aides against another. Mecham attempted to regain the office in 1990 but finished second to Gov. Fife Sym ington in the R epublican Prim ary. Mecham received fewer than 88,000 votes to nearly 158,000 to Symington.

D avid D annacher, a Phoenix attorney involved in a $1 billion suit against Motorola over toxic leaks into the water table, said that a fuel spill as large as a million gallons would probably take decades to clean up. Environmental activists also expressed concern over how much is really known about contamination problems at Williams. David Matusow, a Chandler resident who is also a member o f Don’t Waste Arizona, said, “ Y ou!ve got to rem em ber that information on what goes oh inside there is m ore d ificu lt to find out because i t ’s a Department of Defense facility.” At other superfund sights in the Valley* estim ates for cleanup tim e have been expanded from original estimates of a few years to decades as more is found out about them, Matusow said. “Look at Indian Bend W ash,” he said. ‘T hey add another 10 years to the estimate every time you tum around.” Indian Bend Wash is a superfund sight in Scottsdale contaminated with triclorethalene (TCE). M otorola is being blamed fo r the contamination in a class action law suit. Regents President Andy Hurwitz said he had taken a 'tour of the base before the July retreat. “W e’ve been led to believe th a t the contamination problems are not a concern for proposed areas of use at the base,” he said. ‘fi Air Force officials told him that the only p o tential problem w ould arise if the contaminated groundwater were to be used as drinking water. That would not be a problem because water for a possible future campus would be piped in from outside, he said. Matusow disagrees. W a n t a lin e r a d in th e “They would like you to believe that, like magic, the one million gallons of spilled jet fuel goes straight to the aquifer,” he said. “But that’s not the case.” Matusow said the spilled fuel leaves a residue in the ground between the, surface and the aquifer hundreds of feet below the ground that can cause health problems for people on the surface. Banfleteren said that the Air Force had agreed to clean up the first 25 feet below the ground level and the contaminated aquifer itself, but th at he was concerned about whether it would clean up deeper than that.

The district attorney’s office said race was not a factor, claiming thé prosecution used its right to challenge Superior C ourt Judge Roosevelt Dorn because he could not devote himself solely to the trial. Defense attorney James Gillen scoffed. “They didn’t want a black judge," Gillen said outside court. “They say it wasn’t a racial issue. We say it probably was.” Each side is allowed to remove one judge without explanation. The défense followed the prosecution move by challenging a second judge, who is white. A third, Superior Court Judge John Reid, also white, was left with the job. Like Dorn and unlike the second judge, Reid will have to handle other work while presiding over the trial. ■ i The defense said it was studying whether to push in court for three judicial challenges because-three men face trial together. The next schedule hearing is Sept. 14, Damian W illiam s, Antoine M iller and Henry Watson Were charged with attempted murder, aggravated mayhem, torture and related charges in the beating of trucker Reginald Denny. Gillen represents Miller. A TV news helicopter captured the beating at the South Central Los Angeles intersection considered the flashpoint of the three days of rioting in which 53 people were killed. The unrest broke out April 29 after four white policemen were acquitted Of nearly all charges in the beating of Rodney King, a black man stopped by police after a high­ speed chase. Police studied the news videotape to identify and arrest the defendants.

Bush spoke of his mHHaiy service in World War II. Clinton raised taxes, but not as mush as GOP claims B y R o n F o u r n ie r A s s o c ia t e d P ress LITTLE ROCK, Ark. — The latest Republican lines of attack on Democrat ; Bill Clinton fault the Arkansas governor for raising taxes and fées 128 times ând enjoying it. In fact, the real figure is much smaller. The Clinton campaign itself admits to 59 fax increases, including more than $260 million in tax increases for a $2 C l in t o n billion state budget in 1991. The Bush-Quayle campaign’s list of alleged C linton tax increases counts four tax boosts twice. And Clinton supporters say it also includes items the average voter would not consider a tax or an unreasonable fee. T w o o f th e 128 e n trie s on the B u sh -Q u ay le list are increases in the percentage of bets the state gets from dog- and h orse-racing tracks. A n o th er lengthened the d o g -racin g season, which is a tax hike only in the sense that a longer season increases the state’s, take from wagers. Most of the fees on the list raise little money or target a specific audience. For example, one fee is assessed on people convicted in Arkansas courts. President Bush, in his speech last week at the Republican National Convention, said Clinton had boosted faxes and fees 128 times and “ enjoyed it every tim e." Vice President D an Q u ay le to ss e d out the sam e fig u re on T u e sd a y as he campaigned in North Carolina, depicting Arkansas as a state of high taxes and low incomes. Overall. Arkansas ranked 13th among the states in a study of state tax bills, and it ranked 45th in local tax burden, according to the 1990 report o f the Advisory Commission on Intergovernmental Relations. "T he list is totally misleading.” Betsey Wright, a top aide in C lin to n 's cam paign said o f the B ush-Q uayle list. The campaign acknowledges 49 “ actual taxes” increased under Clinton, the biggest earmarked for education, health care and roads M s. W rig h t. C lin to n ’s fo rm e r c h ie f o f s ta ff, said Republicans also fail to mention that Clinton supported 48 tax-reduction measures. Trying to show that the GOP list is shoddy, the Clinton campaign said it found 10 tax increases not mentioned by the Republicans, for the total of 59. That accounts for every revenue-generating item, many of which are lumped together in single bills. Using the same accounting on Bush’s record, the 1990 tax bill that broke Bush’s “ no new taxes” pledge could be counted as 73 separate tax increases, Clinton officials say. Records kept by the Legislature’s staff show that fewer than 30 tax increases supported by Clinton generated more than $100,000 a year. Clinton did support more than $260 million in tax increases in 1991, the year of his most recent legislative session. A S150 million sales tax increase is paying for a host of education programs. About $80 million in new gasoline taxes are being levied to improve roads. Health-care professionals agreed to pay $30 million in taxes to keep the Medicaid program afloat and get higher reimbursement rates. , A 1991 increase in the corporate tax rate went to vocational education schools. Personal income taxes averaged $314 per person in Arkansas in 1990; the national average was $425. General sales taxes in the state averaged $413, compared with a national average of $488. Because of Arkansas’ low income, sales taxes claimed a relatively high 3.1 percent of personal income. The national average was 2.8 percent. Brownie Ledbetter, a. political activist who has criticized Clinton's tax policies, said the governor didn’t push hard enough to lift longstanding tax exemptions for big business and agriculture before raising sales taxes. “ Some of it could be hung on Bill, but most of the blame can be hung on the ... big agricultural corporations that have exploited the state since it was a territory,” she said. "M y criticism of Bill has been to not reverse that pattern more." "H e had to raise taxes to move this state forward.” Ms. Ledbetter said. "1 just didn’t always like the way he did it.” : Arkansans shoulder the 33rd-higheSt tax burden in the country, according to a recent Money magaz.ine study that included property taxes. Clinton aides disputed the study, saying it is based on a "typical family” earning of $73,000, a figure too high for Arkansas r it e r CHICAGO — Bill Clinton appealed to veterans Tuesday not to oppose his presidential candidacy just because he avoided serving in Vietnam. President Bush pointedly reminded them that when his time came to serve in World War II, " I was scared but I was willing.” The presidential rivals appeared two hours apart before an A m erican Legion convention, first Bush extolling his experience as a wartime fighter pilot and commander-in-chief, then Clinton trying to bury the controversy over his Vietnamera draft status. “ You know 1 never served in the military; you know I opposed the war in Vietnam,” the Arkansas governor said. “ But I want you to know this: I was never against the heroic men who served in the war.” “ If you choose to vote against me because o f what happened 23 years ago, that’s your right and I respect that,” Clinton said. “ But it is my hope you will cast your vote while looking toward the future with hope rather than remaining fixed to the problems of the past.” • The veterans applauded. In raising the matter before a veterans’ group, Clinton hoped to blunt it as a campaign issue. He compared his action to John Kennedy going before the G reater H ouston Ministerial Association in 1960 to face head-on the issue of people voting against a candidate because of his Catholic religion. “ If I should lose this election on the real issues, I shall be satisfied that I tried my best and was fairly judged,” Clinton said. Bush, too, used his appearance to defend himself — in the president’s case against accusations that he stopped the Gulf War too soon rather than sending troops into Baghdad to crush Saddam Hussein’s government. “ We are not in the slaughter business," Bush said, raising his voice. “ We were in the business of stopping aggression and I don’t like these historical revisions. We did the right thing.” ★ ★ ★ e l e c t io n ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ B R I E F S ★ ★ ★ B y T h e A s s o c ia t e d P ress H e re a re T u e s d a y ’ s d e v e lo p m e n ts on th e presidential campaign trail: — A L G O R E : A ccused Republicans of trying to m islead the Am erican public about which ticket h a s “ fa m ily values*’ a n d c a lle d B u s h ’s p o s t­ convention poll g ains tem porary.

D eer V alley U nified School D istrict officials put surveillance cameras in the office of Desert Winds Elementary; School Principal Freddy Craig, as well as in a nearby shower. The Arizona Republic on Tuesday quoted an unidentified source as saying Craig was being investigated after allegedly having sex w ith a fellow em ployee, giving nude photographs o f him self to a teacher and sexually harassing parents in his office. C raig denied any w ro n g d o in g .“ ! categorically deny all of those,” Craig told The Phoenix Gazette late Monday. " I ’m very outraged and hurt. This has been hard to put out of my mind." The discovery of the cam eras, found accidentally by workers, led Craig’s attorney, John Stewart, to file a $2.25 million invasion of privacy claim against the district.Craig, who has 25 years experience in the district, said he suspects som eone is feeding misinformation to district officials. Craig was suspended Aug. 11 with pay and placed on administrative leave. John Stewart said the district has never told him of any specific charges. :■ The d is tric t's governing board, meanwhile, voted Monday to hire Phoenix attorney Charles Herf as its special counsel to provide a “ public acco u n tin g ’’ of Superintendent Jim Chapman’s four-month investigation of Craig. That move was recom m ended by the district's other legal counsel, board President Sheryl Stewart said.' “ To the extent perm itted by law, Mr. H erf s report will answer questions about the nature of the allegations against Mr. Craig, why it was felt necessary to install camera equipment, how long the camera surveillance was in effect, and what was done with the tapes,” Stewart said. Cameras to eye bus behavior SPRINGFIELD, Mass. (AP) — Smile when you shove your classmate: A hidden video camera may be taking your picture on the school bus. School o fficials in two' w estern 'Massachusetts cities plan to put cameras on some buses this fall to deter roughhousing and protect drivers, and the cameras will be hidden so students won’t know which buses have them. ; > “It’s a shell game,” John M aloney, an assistan t to S p rin g fie ld ’s school superintendent, said Tuesday. The surveillance plan in Springfield and Chicopee comes as many schools across the country are turning to cam eras, m etal detectors and other high-tech devices to curb crime and violence among students. O fficials at national organ izatio n s expressed concern over hiding the cameras, which they say usually are placed in the open. “It seems like a shame to have hidden cam eras w atching our k id s,” said June M illion, spokesw om an for the N ational Association of Elementary School Principals. However, the parents are being notified about the cameras in Chicopee and each bus in Springfield will display a sticker warning in English and Spanish - that students may be videotaped, school officials said. John R oberts, d irecto r o f the C ivil Liberties Union of Massachusetts, said the cameras don’t violate privacy rights because a bus is a public place. Chicopee’s School Committee decided this summer to remove adult monitors and to install black boxes near the front of 20 buses. Only two boxes will contain Cameras, but students won’t know which two, said Carolyn Fitzgerald, assistant to the superintendent in Chicopee. Find it...FREE!

(Reg. $ 4 0 value) Human monitors on 48 buses cost the district about $100,000 last year, she said. The cameras will cost a total of $7,000. She said school officials recognize that a camera can’t duplicate all the functions of a monitor, like leading a child across the street or looking at homework. But they can curtail horseplay, which can be dangerous. Springfield will introduce cameras on Sept. 1, the first day of school. Officials plan to place only two cameras at first, but they’ll be hidden behind one-way mirrors near the driver and moved from bus to bus. The district also will buy a special {winter to make photograph-quality prints from videotapes to help identify troublemakers, Maloney said. A rtists’ Supply C en ter op LOSE YOUR PUPPY?

(AP) — AM General Corp. is assembling a network of dealerships in A rizona and elsew here to m arket the H um m er, a c iv ilia n version o f the multipurpose vehicle the company builds for the military, a corhpany official said Tuesday. “It’s a unique product,” said Tom Scolan, product manager for an Illinois dealer. “It’s something we feel there’ll be a market for.” Scolan said Naperville Jeep-Eagle in a suburb o f C h ic a g o w ill receive its first $40,000-plus Hummer in late September. AM General announced plans last year to sell the Hummer commercially, with the initial 1,000 customers buying directly from the factory. Even w ithout advertising, the word is getting around. “We. had an inquiry about 20 minutes ago - an individual who owns his own company,” Scolan said during a telephone interview from his office. “(He) pulls a boat and is looking for som ething to do fishing and hunting with.” The Hummer price tag puts it a “niche above” sport utility vehicles such as the Jeep Grand Cherokee and the Land Rover, Scolan said. An open-top pickup version will sell for about $40,500, AM General said. A two-door hardtop will list around $42,500 with a fourdoor model at $44,000. The basic model sold to the government costs $26,000. The vehicle distinguished itself during the P ersian G u lf war, where the nicknam e “humvee” came from its official Pentagon designation as the High M obility M ultiPurpose Wheeled Vehicle. Workers at AM General’s assembly plant in neighboring Mishawaka have long called it the Hummer, a named trademarked by the company. AM General James Armour has selected 16 dealers in the initial network and says a total of 50 will be established by the .end of the year. In additional to Illinois and Arizona, dealerships have been selected in Virginia, M assachusetts, D elaw are, O hio, W est Virginia, Georgia, Florida, Texas, Oklahoma, Colorado, New Mexico and Utah. The dealers will provide brief driving lessons because the H um m er has some “unique characteristics,” Scolan Said. 8 H Mt b h h 1:1 Learn WordPerfect V5.1 in 6 Leam 174 New AutoCAD R.12 hour dasses now - Moo-Sat Features in 6 hour classes for 8to2 & 3to9 - Costs-$95.00 $95.00 or 40 hr.

(AP) — Phil Meister was worried that not enough people would know he was running for the state House. But it turns out that everyone knows “ The Philmeister.’’ And everyone w ants:one o f the P h ilm eister’s campaign signs. At least everyone who has seen the ‘ ‘Saturday Night Live” television skit in which Rob Schneider, playing Randy the dweeb, adds a meister or an o-rama or some other twist to everyone’s name. “When I saw his signs the first words out of my mouth were, ‘The Philmeister!’ recalled liana Weiner, a Senior at Hall High School. “For anyone between 18 and 21, it’s just a natural thing to say.” Grabbing “Elect Phil Meister” campaign signs as souvenirs has also become a natural thing to do; about 30 have disappeared in recent weeks. At first the; Democratic party primary candidate thought some political skulduggery might be at work. But then the police caught a teen-ager taking a sign who explained the legend of the Philmeister. Meister, who didn’t press charges, is hoping the attention will boost his campaign against incumbent Miles S. Rapoport. “When you’re the challenge candidate, to get name recognition is by far the hardest thing,” said Meister, 37. “Now, people are coming up to me saying, ‘1 know you,”’ BY G AR RY TRUDEAU JOANIBT PIP YOUPROP OFF MY MINOXIPfl PRESCRIPTION AT THE PRU6 STORE US'S TURNING 40, MOM. up ««47«? fiB o jf IPOT / Hi Accept MiiterCirA A Hit* •« Delivery!
