Fontana, a Junior, is still serving probation from the credit Card scandal that stung Coach Bill Frieder’s team last year. ^ Dwayne Fontana, an ASU junior on the men’s basketball team, was arrested and charged with sexual assault after he allegedly raped a woman at his Tempe apartment early Wednesday morning. / Sgt. A1 Taylor, spokesman for the Tempe police, said Fontana was arrested at his apartment at 2030 E. Broadway Road at approximately 4 a.m. Wednesday after police received a call from the alleged victim, who said Fontana had sexually assaulted her earlier that morning. The two were in the bedroom at Fontana's apartment Wednesday morning when he allegedly went to the bathroom and returned wearing nothing but a condom. It was then that he allegedly raped the victim. “He was booked into our jail on charges of sexual assault,” Taylor said. “He was later released pending a complaint.” Fontana and the victim have apparently known each other for more than a year, but no sexual relations were involved. Taylor said. Taylor said the police department will send a report to the attorney general’s office. It will then review the case and determine if it meets the criteria for charges to be filed. Fontana, 19, a starting forward on the 1991-92 Sun Devil basketball team, was suspended from the squad pending litigation. “What the Athletic Department has done is suspended him immediately and indefinitely from the team,” said'Scott Dupree, assistant Sports Information director for Sun Devil athletics. " Dupree said that Fontana will remain suspended until the legal process is finished, at which time a réévaluation will take place regarding his status with the Athletic Department. ASU basketball coach Bill Frieder could not be reached for comment. However, Dupree said the decision to suspend Fontana came “jointly from ASU Director of Athletics Charles S. Harris and Coach Frieder.” Taylor said he doesn’t know whether the alleged victim is an ASU student but said she is older than Fontana. He said she was bom in 1969. Fontana’s arrest continues a trend that dates back to early last summer.

Evan Mecham announced Wednesday in a rally at Mesa Centennial Hall that he is entering the race for Republican John McCain’s U.S. Senate seat. "I am more concerned for the people of this nation than 1 ever have been before,” Mecham told the crowd of approximately 350 supporters, members of the media and curious citizens. “I made this decision because it’s the only chance we have to solve the government’s problems and forge a new agenda.” Mecham was soliciting money and signatures, two neccessities to his getting on the ballot as an independent, following the rally. He will have to collect more than 10,500 signatures from registered voters in the 10 days following the Sept. 8 primary. Mecham said although he was “reluctant” to accept the Draft Mecham Committee’s offer to back him as a candidate for the Senate, he could not pass up an opportunity to “return thé power to the people.” However, M echam 's campaign slogan. "Mecham for the People." did not sit well late Wednesday with members of the black community w h o ' say Mecham is an “embarrassment” to the people of the state. “As a black woman, l definitely do not see that he is for all the people,” said Erica Wade, a junior ASU student who is a member of the ASU chapter of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People and the African American Coalition. “He has shown us before that he has nothing to offer black people. I do think it would be an embarrassment for us to put him back in an office.” Mecham told the rally audience that McCain has “done us a lot of damage,” and that Arizonans can’t afford to keep him in office anymore. He said numerous times that McCain is a senator because he loves Washington, D.C:, while Mecham said he is running because he loves Arizona. He also condemned McCain’s policies in dealing with American prisoners of war. Although McCain is a former POW, Mecham said he looks the other way when told of American soldiers left behind after the end of a war. Turn to M echam, page 13.

Textile department faces elimination by fall of 1993 B y Shaun Rachau S tate P ress ' Despite efforts to avoid slashing academic programs, ASU adminstrators have targeted the entire department of textiles and clothing for elimination, indicating that academics are not immune to the University-wide budget cuts. Approximately 150 textile and clothing majors will be forced to finish their academic work in three semesters if the proposed cut is approved by A SU ’s A cadem ic Senate. Additionally, the move would result in two of the program’s instructor positions being elim inated after the 1993 fall semester. Additional cuts could be made in the broadcasting and engineering departments in what ASU President Lattie Coor iS TnA TSE id e P R E S S calls reductions in small programs. “We have chosen a path that has not led to m ajor reductions of large programs,” Coor said. “Whether there will be additional cuts in subsequent years is part of what the University Planning and Budget Committee will face.” Before any cuts are made they must be approved by the Academic Senate. “Although it has not gone through the (Academic) Senate, the probability is high that (the textile program) will be cut,” said Kathleen Church, assistant vice president of Academic Programs. In April, the textiles and clothing department was asked to plan a phase-out period for the program, according to Julie Zylla, an instructor in the department who will be let go next year if the cuts go through. “It’s a good question what I will be doing without a job,” Zylla said. “There are openings in textiles and clothing across the country, but I’m not really in a position where I would like to move.” The demand for teaching in textiles and clothing is not strong at the community college level, Zylla said. She also is considering retraining in the profession or taking a different approach toward textiles and clothing in the private sector. The phase-out program will allow students currently enrolled to complete their textiles and clothing course work. The program is currently not accepting new students. “If the students still have academic work to complète, we i» MR H S p o rts C ity N ew s Two ASU women narrowly survived a harrowing experience after the GN’R concert Tuesday.

The president met with evacuees at a sports arena in I^afayette. Andrew was downgraded to a tropical storm early Wednesday afternoon after its w inds dropped below the hurricane threshhold of 74 mph. It continued to drench, Louisiana with heavy rain, but it appeared that its worst was done. By evening the storm was centered near Natchez, Miss. The hurricane’s 54-hour U.S. rampage, the most expensive natural disaster ever in the country, left an estimated 180.000 homeless in Florida — a refugee population greater than the city of Orlando. About 600.000 hom es and businesses rem ained without electricity late Wednesday . D rinkable w ater, unspoiled food and medical relief remained critical priorities in ravaged neighborhoods south o f M iami. Search teams continued to explore wreckage for bodies. One death was reported in Louisiana, a 63year-old tornado victim from LaPIace found in rubble W ednesday. Another death was reported in the Bahamas, where three other people died when the storm hit Sunday. That raised the overall toll to 20 dead. Preliminary estimates in Florida’s Dade County alone put the damage at SI5 billion to. $20 billion, although it will likely take time for those figures to be verified. T here : w ere no com parable figures available for Louisiana. But as widespread as the damage appeared there, authorities noted that it could have been worse. The storm had spun itself out a bit and weakened before crossing the coastline. And it spared the state’s largest city. New Orleans. All around the low-lying south-central part of the state, houses were ravaged, trailer homes were turned upside down, majestic oak trees in front of antebellum m ansions were toppled and several gas leaks were reported.

Czechoslovakian federation to dissolve B y O n d rej H ejma A s s o c ia t e d P ress BRNO, Czechoslovakia — The leaders of the Czech and Slovak republics agreed late Wednesday to dissolve the Czechoslovak federation on Jan. 1. The announcement was made after eight hours of talks betw een C zech P rem ier V aclav K laus and his Slovak counterpart Vladimir Meciar. , "O n January 1, there will be two republics, two states,” said Meciar. “ I am sure we shall be able to form better relations with Slovakia than we have now,” said Klaus. The two leaders, who agreed in principle to break up the 74-year-old federation in June, said they had agreed on the timetable but that much further consultation was needed to complete the country’s peaceful dissolution. The split must be approved by three-fifths of the 300member federal parliament in Prague. Opposition is likely from the strong left-wing faction, but Klaus has said he is sure the agreement will pass. Czechoslovakia was founded in the ashes of the AustroHungarian empire after World War I. Irreconcilable disputes have developed over the pace and scope of economic reforms since the ouster of the Communists in 1989. Five million of Czechoslovakia’s 15 million people live in Slovakia, the country’s smaller eastern third. Unemployment has soared in Slovakia, while most residents of the wealthier Czech republic are anxious to complete the switch to a market economy. The talks in Brno, capital of the Moravia region of the Czech republic, 110 miles east of Prague, were the sixth in the series held by the leaders. Klaus and Meciar said that during September they will submit to parliament two constitutional laws, one dissolving the federation and the other dividing its powers and goods. Under the timetable set Wednesday, the two sides will work out a package of treaties in October, leaving November and December to iron out any remaining problems. W orld leaders condemn Serbia during peace talks B y D u s a n S t o ja n o v ic A s s o c ia t e d P ress "LONDON — World leaders condemned Serbia on Wednesday for the war in BosniaHerzegovina and warned at an international peace conference that the aggressors face economic isolation and prosecution for war crimes. Despite the harsh words that dominated the opening day of the conference, a senior U.S. State Department official said he saw progress. One positive sign, he said, was the stated willingness of Serbian President Slobodan M ilo sev ic apd B osnian P resident A lija Izetbegovic to allow U.N. observers along the border between Serbia and Bosnia. Serbs are reported to have run arms across the frontier. As his forces unleashed heavy attacks against Sarajevo and other parts of Bosnia, the leader of Bosnian Serbs defiantly declared that the former Yugoslav republic “ doesn’t exist anymore.” But Radovan Karadzic, who briefly walked out of the talks, offered to give up some Serb-held territory to win a peace settlement. A cting Secretary o f State Law rence Eagleburger warned of a “ spectacularly bleak future” for Serbs if they did not end their sieges of Sarajevo and other cities held by Bosnia’s Muslim-led government. D obrica C osic, the federal Y ugoslav president, promised to press the Bosnian Serbs to give up some of the land they hold, but charged that the international media has "satanized” the Serbs in order to make them the “ scapegoats of the projected new world order.” ~ O pening the larg est in ternational conference so far on the Balkan crisis, British Prim e M inister John M ajor called for guarantees for the delivery of humanitarian ‘ aid to Bosnia, a halt to human rights abuses and respect for existing borders. “ In this room are the people who can stop this war, end the bloodshed, reach a lasting settlement. I don’t believe that world opinion will readily forgive anyone who impedes that work over the next couple o f days and beyond,” Major said. Frustration with the Serbs for a war that has claimed more than 8,000 lives and created 1.2 m illion refugees dom inated the first session o f the co nference, w hich drew officials from the United Nations, two dozen countries, the six former Yugoslav republics and humanitarian and defense organizations. Opinion Page 4 r State P ress E d itorial Add Fontana to the list It’s getting old. ASU athletes seem to be spending more time getting fingerprinted than running laps. Aggravated assault, burglary, fraudulent use of a credit card, sexual abuse and alleged sexual a ssa u lt — all co m m itted by 10 a th le te s collectively over the past year. Stadium hawkers should start peddling their programs in front of police stations — “Get your program s! You c a n ’t tell, your felons without a program!” ASU’s athletes seem to live at a different level of reality.Free tuition. Free books. Free room and board. Free meals. Free money. In return, athletes are asked to perform well academ ically w hile m aintaining a grueling training, conditioning and competing Schedule. On top of that, they are also expected to carry themselves with some manner of decorum. Director o f ASU Athletics Charles Harris said, “We have to do a better job of helping all our athletes understand that they are held to a higher standard.” No kidding. Tempe police said Dwayne Fontana early W ednesday morning asked a woman he had know n fo r about a year to com e up to his apartment to talk, then “ while they were talking he got up, went to the bathroom and returned wearing nothing but a condom.” T he 19 -y ea r-o ld b a sk e tb a ll p la y e r was released a fter being booked on the felony charge. , This is Fontana’s second felony charge, Last summer he m issed six games on suspension a fter being charged w ith fraud for putting $13,474 w orth o f unauthorized calls on an Athletic Department credit card. Fontana got out of a felony conviction by pleading guilty, paying a fine and being placed on two-year probation. If found guilty this time, he won’t be treated with kid gloves. Raythan Smith goes on trial a week from Monday on his aggravated assault charge. B esid es S m ith and F o n ta n a, each ASU athlete arrested and charged with a crime has been let back on his team. Needless to say, none of them have Served any time for their actions. Judges are obviously looking at the crimes for what they are: stupid, young kids doing , stupid, young things. ~ A shopping spree at Superstition Springs, stealing roses from a flower shop on Valentine’s Day and c h a tty lo n g -d istan ce calls do not qualify for “America’s Most Wanted.” But shootings and rapes do. The criminal justice system will prove, with Smith and Fontana, that all are treated equally under the law. With his power to rem ove the individuals from the Athletic Department, it’s up to Harris to prove that he really wants his athletes to have respect for the law. s State P ress Thursday, August 2 7 ,1 9 9 2 y o u 'v e C A LL B o t o n é F O N T A N A .

State P ress etters to the editor It’s starting again ' Ed ito r: School starts and once again we start up where we left off. At the end of the spring semester, articles were flying back and forth in the State Press regarding race relations and how they are perceived within the respective black as well as white camps. Ashahad Triche wrote an article on how HE saw the Los Angeles riots. Then, low and behold, out of the woodwork comes Mr. Max Linderman, a history major who should revise his major because, obviously* he does not know , let alone understand, A fricans in Amerikkka and their collective history. When a people has exhausted all other means of peaceful protest to achieve their ends and the legal system fails to establish and deliver equal punishment to all, then you have a loss of hope as well as trust, thus leading to events like the Los Angeles riots. Perhaps, Mr. Linderman, you have read, these lines before: “That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends (life, lib erty , and the p u rsu it of happiness) it is the Right of the People to alter or abolish it, and to in stitu te a new Government, laying its foundation on such principles in organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness.” A nytim e you w ant to broaden y our historical perspective, Mr. Linderman, come find me and we can talk. G eoff B arrett Sophomore, Political Science H eadline hoseheads Ed ito r: We w ould lik e to p o int out a m ajor oversight in the Aug. 25 issue of the State Press. The headline proclaimed that a recent British study had suggested that gymnasts were developing lifelong injuries. However, upon reading the article, we discovered that the research was conducted at a university in Vancouver, British Columbia. Since British Columbia is a province in Canada, we felt the need to make you aware o f the fact that Canada has been a separate country for 125 years. In fact, in 1867 the B ritish North America Act was signed declaring Canada independent from Great Britain. Therefore, it would only be logical that a research project conducted in C anada would be called a C anadian study, eh?! Thank you for correcting this oversight and acknowledging this research as a product of Canada, P atrid a Law ton C arolyn M uller G rad u ate Students, Speech and H earing Science Skewed priorities close com puter site Ed ito r: I was on my way to the Hayden Library computer site to write a comment concerning Republican code word usage, the language which the current administration is using to delineate the “haves” from the “have-nots.” U nfortunately, that site has been closed. Possibly the most popular facility on the entire campus closed so that a group which goes by the nam e, “C onsortium for Instructional Innovation” could have the space. I am not one to draw imaginaty parallels, but ... clearly, A rizona State U niversity con sid ers research more valuable than students, and I am furious. Money talks at higher educational facilities and similarly in the mind of our leading politician. The “Education President” (Mr. Read My Lips) has not follow ed through on his commitment to education and the cutbacks have been passed along. Now the students who most need the services will not be able to have a valuable facility available for their use. Will ASU soon require students to purchase their own computers to attend classes here? Admittedly, smaller budgets require tough decision-making. I hope I am not alone in my call for a look at priorities! President Coor, I must ask, are students more important or is research more important? Jo n ath an Scaggs Ju n io r, Political Science ‘I w ish I had a dollar’ Ed ito r: partially helped it grow — not to simply excuse i t I wish I had a dollar for every time I have heard a self-appointed spokesman for the black community turn every issue that comes up into one of race relations. Not everything is traceable to a black-white issue. Finally, I wish I had a dollar for every time I have heard a young black man refer to a young Caucasian man as a “white boy.” I suspect that if the reverse were true, it would be offensive to all sensitive ears and would not be tolerated. So, I pose the question to you, Mr. Triche: Why the double standard? Teague von Bohlen Graduate Student, Creative W riting All concerts not created equal Ed ito r: I thank you for questioning the Phoenix City Council’s decision to cancel the rap concert and not the GN’R concert. However, you forgot to explore other aspects. First, the GN’R concert was moved from Sun Devil Stadium to Phoenix International Raceway for better crow d and noise control. Phoenix M unicipal Stadium is in the m iddle o f a residential area and not a 30-minute drive from the m iddle c ap ital. S o, th ere is a difference. Maybe the City Council should h av e m oved, not can celled , th e concert instead. Mr Triche, next time you think the Phoenix City Council makes a hypocritical decision, you should consider all aspects and not just a few of them. Thank you. Like Ashahed Triche in his column o f Aug. 2 6 ,1, too, have a few “I wish I had a dollar” comments. I wish I had a dollar for every time I have heard a commentator’s justification for gangs and the violence they support and commit. Most o f us understand the sociological and political circumstances that have contributed to the unrest nationwide and particularly in C alifo rn ia. H ow ever, it needs to be remembered that these gangs are far from political activists or even effective leaders in the movement for much needed social reform. They are dangerous, angry men with better w eaponry than the police.

Estimated loss is $500. •A men’s red bicycle was stolen from the ASU grounds office where it was secured with a U-iock. Estimated loss is $25. •A man unaffiliated with the University was reported standing in the lobby of the Aquatic Center asking to be let in to swim. Police advised him of trespassing and ordered him to leave the area. Tempe police reported the following incidents Wednesday: •A man was arrested for sexually assaulting a woman in the parking lot of Studebakers at 725 S. Rural Road. The victim said the assault occurred in the front seat o f the suspect’s truck after she agreed to follow him to his truck. The woman managed to run inside and call the police, who arrived on the scene before the suspect could gather his companions and leave the bar. •An ASU student was arrested for trespassing when he was found crouched beneath a woman’s bedroom window peering in through a crooked slat in the blinds at 1201 S. McClintock C I 1IC 4 6 I E S Drive. •A Phoenix man was arrested for shoplifting a 12-pack of beer at the Circle K at 2115 S. McClintock Drive earlier this summer. When the clerk advised him that he was being videotaped, the suspect replied, “I guess the cops will have to find me.” They did. -•The Exxon service station at 3303 S. Rural Road was robbed of approximately $1,400 by thieves who gained access by stacking old tires and climbing through an evaporative cooler duct on the roof. Once inside, the intruders had to pry off a metal panel leading to the business office. •A juvenile was arrested at the Tower Records at 821 S. Mill Ave. when security guards observed him attempting to conceal two cassette tapes in his pants. While security guards detained the suspect, the boy’s companion, who was hot carrying a weapon, threatened to shoot die security guard. •In two separate incidents, two men reported that their clothing had been stolen from a laundry room located in the Quadrangles apartment complex located at 1255 E.

Southern ART Anniversary o f w om ens vote celebrated B y Kate D e Ely S tate P ress Seventy-two years ago yesterday, the 19th Amendment o f the U.S. C onstitution was ratified, giving every female American citizen over 18 the right to vote. In,celebration of the anniversary, Aug. 26 was declared Women’s Equality Day across the nation, and ASU had its own remembrance ceremony. State politicians, University professors and students, both male and female, gathered on the Student Services Building lawn Wednesday afternoon to commemorate women’s rights. D espite the program ’s em phasis on active political involvement, only a small crowd showed up to listen. “Voting is the one act that has spearheaded the way for many other rights,” said Kate Lehman, an ASU political science instructor and Democratic candidate for the state House of Representatives in District 16. Lehman said it is very important for people, especially women, to realize that these rights should not be taken for granted. She added that it is a contradiction that so many people don’t vote but at the same time hold strong opinions on issues and want change. State Sen. Karan English, D-Flagstaff, presented a speech that was delivered all over the nation yesterday at other campuses and organizations. The speech, titled “We Can Do It!” highlighted the history of women’s suffrage and the women who played a part in women’s rights issues, English is one of the few Arizona women candidates running for the U.S. Congress. She is competing in the newly created District 6, which includes parts of northeast and central east Arizona. “We were given the tools by some veiy prominent women in the last ISO years and we should use these tools,” English said. One of the women English was referring to is Arizona Rep. Polly Rosenbaum, who was a special guest at yesterday’s celebration. “I have voted in every election except one when I was out of the state, and I felt like I created a mortal sin,” Rosenbaum said. Rosenbaum has been in the Arizona Legislature since 1949, and according to Rita Mae Kelly, chairwoman of the justice studies department, “was a feminist before we ever had the word.” Betsy George, a junior biomedical engineering major who attended the rally, said she “thought it was an important celebration of the day.” She said it is inspiring to see women such as Rosenbaum get involved and become accomplished within the political arena. But Camille Cordero, a senior political science major, said she was disappointed by the small turnout at the event because many people are not aware of women’s history. Upon closing the ceremony, Lehman advised everyone to “attem pt to match your voting record to that o f Polly Rosenbaum’s.” have a box. Do you! Y e s! I a-m a-bobs Add Spio* to Your Parsonala!

When he came to Arizona to attend ASU as a criminal justice freshman, he wanted to rem ain fit, so he said he was ready' and willing to join a “wellness program” that debuted this semester on the 12th floor of Manzanita residence hall. “It’s going to help me a lot,” said Hyde, as he showed off the new exercise equipment' M anzanita’s 12th floor got as part of the agreement to be the first group on campus in the new program, “I thought it would get me going with the right foot forward.” Tammy Summers, assistant director of the S tudent R ecreation C enter in charge of program m ing and m arketing, said the Manzanita wellness program was initiated by Residence Life with the participation o f the SR C ’s W ellness C enter and the Student Health Center. The students sign an agreement not to have drugs, alcohol or tobacco on the floor, Summers said. The program aims at achieving all-around health, Hyde said. “ I t’s a culm ination o f eating better, exercise, taking care of the body and mind,” he added. “It’s taking care o f your whole self.” One of the resident assistants on the 12th flo o r ‘o f M anzanita, Tracy D udm an, a geography senior, said the idea is not hew, although it is new at ASU. The University of Wisconsin was the first school to try the concept and now many others are beginning similar efforts. She said the entire population of the 12th flo o r — 56 students — has signed the agreement. "Most students on the floor work out at least three times a week or they play in some organized sport,” Dudman said. The residents have the option of working Photo by Carl York Manzanita Hall residente take advantage o f the convenience of their 12th-floor exercise room. out at the SRC or in Manzanita’s 12th-floor exercise room, which is equipped with stair­ stepping machines, stationary cycles and a rowing machine. “The purpose is not to say you can’t go out and have a drink with friends,” Dudman said of the no drug, alcohol and tobacco pledge, “but to make this a substance-free floor.” Summers said she would assume that a student would have to move from the floor if the agreement were broken. There are many benefits to students who jo in , Summers said. There is a w ellness resource library on their floor with books, pamphlets and videos on health and exercise, as well as a VCR. Each student on the floor has a key to the exercise room. Incoming students will be given a health assessment by the SRC.

T albo tt S m it h S tate P ress Voter 2000 organizers and volunteers have registered about 1,000 ASU students to vote in November’s general election and expect to have 2,000 registered to vote by Friday. On the average, Voter 2000 has registered about 375 people daily at its booth on Cady Mail since Monday. Caesar Tima, a sophomore majoring in in ternational relatio n s, organized the successful registration drive with financial support from Regent Eddie Basha and two Tem pe businesses. Tim a is receiving volunteer help in manning and setting up the booth from the Sigm a K appa sorority, College Republicans, Associated Students of ASU, Z eta Beta Tau fratern ity and the Arizona League of Women Voters. Tima said he is affiliated with, the College Republicans, but he added that the Voter 2000 registration drive is non-partisan. “This is a non-partisan, non-profit effort” to get students to register, he said. Tima organized Voter 2000 to help erase ASU’s “apathetic image.” He said his efforts are statew ide and will include Northern Arizona University and the University of Arizona in the next few weeks. He hopes to register 2,000 voters at the other universities as well. ' The A rizona Student A ssociation, a statewide student government asscociation, is also participating in Tima’s drive to register students to vote. ASA has its own registration drive every year, called Students Are Voting Everywhere, or SAVE ‘92, but for the time being the group has joined Tima under the Voter 2000 name. “Little by little, our efforts became one,” Tim a said. “We have a pretty solid relationship (with ASA).” - We'll need to receive it before noon today!

SAVE ‘92 goals were set by each individual school’s ASA officers. “It was busy today,” ASA Task Force D irector Jennifer M eyer said o f student interest in the voter registration drive. “The people who are registering here are very happy that we have made it more convenient for them to register.” “That’s the whole point. Students can register here and it’s easy.” Tima is also working in cooperation with the Maricopa County recorder’s office in Voter 2000’s effort to get students registered. “I ’m pleased th e y ’ve given us the opportunity to participate, and that they came in and talked to us so that what they are doing will work in concert with us,” Maricopa County Recorder Helen Purcell said. Purcell added that the new absentee ballot rule, now called “early” balloting, will get more people to vote. Ballots will be mailed to voters 33 days before the election and can be turned in or mailed to the recorder’s office anytime up until the election. “A nytim e you put a roadblock in a person’s way for either registering or voting, they’re going to take the easy way out.” She cited the new Kids Voting program in recen t electio n s as an exam ple o f how incentives can get people to vote. She said that program increased turnout by 10 to 15 percent. Kids Voting gets children involved in the process by allowing them to place mock ballots at polling places, but they must bring a parent who is registered to vote. Recent changes to voting rules by the state now allow any registered voters to use the early balloting system. Formerly, a reason had to be given for voting with an absentee ballot, such as physical disability.

David Berman, a professor of political science at ASU, said he feels there is no chance Mecham will hurt incumbent McCain’s chances for re-election, “1 don’t think McCain’s very worried,” Berman said. ’’McCain seems to have a sizeable lead. (Mecham) probably will get 15, not more than 20, percent of the votes.” During his two-hour rally in Mesa, however, Mecham referred to himself as the relief this state needs to represent itself in the Senate. The 68-year-old former Glendale car dealer and newspaper publisher outlined his six major points of interest, claiming his top priority to be that of the $4 billion national debt. “The only thing that’s going to stop the federal government from going broke is to balance the budget real soon,” Mecham said. “We need to reduce the (debt) to $200 billion by next year and to zero by the year after that.” FINE ART, ARCHITECTURE, ENG INEERING & GRAPHIC DESIGN STUDENTS: He then offered a thinly detailed plan to balance that budget. He said the solution is to have every member of the federal government justify every dollar spent. The re-establishment of the United State’s Constitution — something he said has been ignored by “buck passers” in Congress ■ — as the governing control of the nation, Was his second major point of. interest, Mecham said. “In my calculations, at least 80 percent of the actions of the federal government are outside of the restrictions of the Constitution,” said the former state senator, who has been involved in local politics since the 1960s. Mecham pinpointed constitutional violations by governmental leaders dating as far back as the start of the century. The threat of America at war was Mecham’s third issue outlined Wednesday. He said the nation should only respond to a threat of national security and even then war 'should not be allowed until approved by Congress. “A United Nations declaration is no substitute and does not supercede the Constitution,” he said, citing five wars that have been illegally fought. Farther down Mecham’s agenda was the unemployment rate across'the United States. He said government should stop interfering in private enterprise and let the market create the jobs the country needs. Mecham’s fifth concern was that of American taxpayers having their tax money “shipped overseas and given to whomever, regardless of how the American people feel about it.” Lastly, Mecham said he is for a trade policy that treats imports the same Way exports are treated, keeping prices affordable on imports everywhere and “fostering a good will with all nations.” SHOP FOR YO UR ART SUPPLIES FROM THE VALLEY'S M O S T COMPLETE SELECTION TH R O U G H SEPTEMBER 30T H A N D RECEIVE A SUBSTANTIAL 3 0 % D IS C O U N T O N M O S T ITEMS T H R O U G H O U T THE STOREI FINE ART MATERIALS: C A N V A S , PAINTS, STRETCHER BARS, BRUSHES, FRAMES, PAPER, ETC.

Peters has been teaching textiles and clothing at ASU for the past 25 yeafs and will switch to teaching family studies Classes nextyear after the program is cut. Both Z ylla and P eters are confused about why the University is cutting the program. “It is innappropriate to take the major out of the curriculum considering we have 150 majors and we are a self-sustaining program financially,” Peters said. She also said textiles and clothing is the predominant major in the College of Family Resources and Human Development and the department also has developed business internships in the community. Zylla said her impression is that the textile and clothing department is seen as a non-tfaditional area for the College of L iberal A rts.

Too absurd to be anything but real- PHOENIX (AP) — An expert on sex therapy told a state Senate panel Wednesday that a controversial device that measures arousal in boys and men gives valuable information, but should be used with caution. The hearing o f the ad-hoc Com m ittee oh C hildren’s Psychological Treatment was called following media reports on a program for sex offenders at Phoenix Memorial Hospital in which the device was used to measure arousal in boys as young as 10. The program, which was disbanded last week, also had teen-agers sniff ammonia while listening to their fantasies in a form of aversion therapy. Judith Becker, director of the University of Arizona sexualmedicine clinic in Tucson, said she was unfamiliar with the program at Phoenix Memorial, and testified only about sex therapy strategy in general. Becker said the device, called a penile plethysmograph, can aid treatment by helping therapists determine what arouses offenders. But since teen-agers can- suppress arousal, the device is only useful when the subject is a willing participant in the therapy, she said. In the case at the heart o f the controversy, the ring-like device that fits around the penis was used on a boy under the custody of Child Protective Services. “We don’t have a means of assessment that is 100 percent perfect, but these are the best that we have,” Becker said. The hearing was called by state Sen. Stan Furman, DPhoenix. In addition to Becker, there was testimony from state officials on how various agencies deal with teen-age sex offenders. Officials from Phoenix Memorial are scheduled to testify at a second hearing Sept. 2. The hospital canceled the program last week. Officials defended its methods but said the reports about the program had made it unlikely there would be enough referrals to keep it going. “The issue of juvenile sex offenders hasn’t gone away just because that particular program has ceased operation,” said Furm an. He said the com m ittee w ould study w hether “corrective legislation” is needed. Am erica W est gets additional financing PHOENIX (AP) — America West A irlines’ President Michael Conway said Wednesday an additional $10 million had been added to the interim financing package America West needs to keep flying while it reorganizes. The $10 million loan by A nsett W orldwide Aviation Services increases the financing package to $60 million, $53 million in loans. Australian-based Ansett leases 11 planes to America West and owns 17 perce'nt o f its stock, a spokesm an for the Phoenix-based carrier said. Conway disclosed the additional loan while testifying during a U S. Bankruptcy Court hearing on the company’s request for permission to take on up to $60 million in added debt , Judge Robert G. Mooreman, who is presiding over the company’s Chapter 11 reorganization case, took the request under advisement but promised to rule soon on whether to give it tentative approval. After several aircraft providers and other parties in the •C o v e r-U p s, T e e 's, a n d 5th & Mill • Tempe 921-7456 bankruptcy case objected to aspects of the company’s request, he scheduled a Sept. 9 hearing to hear additional arguments. Martin J. Whalen, America West general counsel, said later that the company would try to schedule closing o f the financing package for Sept. 10, the day after the next hearing. Besides the $53 million in loans, the package includes $7 million in ticket prepurchases and airport rent deferrals. T he: loans include $35 million from GPA Leasing, an Irish aircraft leasing company, $ 1 million from the state and $7 million from various Phoenix businesses, including $250,000 each from the Phoenix Suns and Phoenix C ardinals sports franchises. Conway testified that America West needs the money because of losses sustained during fare wars earlier this year. “Those cuts in concerts took a devastating toll on the industry,” he said. If the interim financing is not approved, he said, “the likely result would be that the company would be unable to operate in the near term.” /s g jg jt C ruise w ith the S tate Press Look Better.
