Seeking greater representation for graduate students, the Associated Students of ASU Senate approved a plan to establish a new vice president to deal specifically with graduate-student issues. __ The constitutional referendum, which would establish the graduate affairs vice president, must be approved by students in a special election before implementation. The proposal stipulates that the election must be held before the second week of February. Graduate College Sen. Daren Wastchak said the push to establish the new vice president is needed to increase the representation of graduate-student issues. ‘Twenty-five percent of the ASU population are gradu­ ate students,” he said. “They are a large sector that doesn’t have any special representation on campus.” Wastchak said the current undergraduate-dominated ASASU is incapable of representing issues that affect gradT urn to ASASU, page 2.

Standridge also commended the students’ efforts in protecting the “A.” “It is important to guard the colors,” he said. “It is a point of school pride.” K ro stu re said the S tu d e n t A lum ni A s s o c ia tio n u su a lly repaints the “A” within 48 hours after its occasional m odifications. The m ountainous m oniker m onu­ ment needs to be repainted between 20 and 30 times per year. The symbol of ASU was repainted on Friday, and has been under the pro­ tectors’ watchful eyes since. “When it is daylight, it will be gold — that is our goal,” Krosture said. A ccording to the U niversity Archives, the tradition of white-wash­ ing the “A” began in the 1930s as part o f orientation-w eek activ ities. H ow ever, the trad itio n began to decline in 1965. Historical documents say “mis­ chievous students from the University of Arizona trek to Tempe Butte to paint the ‘A’ blue and red.” However, an exact date that UofA students first customized the “A” is unknown. The current “A” was built in 1955 after the original “A” was destroyed by a bomb blast in 1953. It is con­ structed out of reinforced steel and poured concrete and m easures 60 feet tall.

A ccording to a senate bill from the G overnm ent Operations and University Affairs Committees, “ASASU currently does not have adequate means by which to for­ ward ... issues on behalf of graduate students.” However, Activities Vice President Marc Wendell said a separate executive office for graduate students is unneces­ sary and would only add to the bureaucracy of ASASU. Wendell was the sole vote against the proposal when it went before the senate. He said if graduate students want greater representation, they should run for more executive offices and senate seats. “All 24 senate seats could be occupied by graduate stu­ dents," he said. "They could easily turn it around.” Wastchak said the quest for increased graduate-student representation has been an uphill battle. A similar proposal to form an executive office for gradu­ ate-student affairs in 1992 and a plan in the fall of 1994 to establish a separate government devoted to graduate issues both failed. “We looked to a vice-president position,” Wastchak said. “There will be less animosity than there would be with a separate government.” Although the purpose of the graduate affairs vice presi­ dent would be to lobby for graduate issues, Wastchak said undergraduate students will benefit as well. “ A SU ’s ability to attract graduate students will increase,” he said. “The difficult part will be to show the undergraduate population that this is good for them.” Wastchak also said the position would improve the grad­ uate-student base, create a pool of better teaching assistants and add to the prestige of ASU. “The key to making this pass is helping the undergradu­ ates understand that this has benefits for the whole University population,” he said. However, Wendell said there should not be a vice- prési­ dent position for such a small population on campus. “I will stick to my guns and vote against this," he said. “People would not appreciate the ramifications.’’ California Casualty Rated #1 Auto Insurer in Nationwide Customer Survey “Service, service and service” emerged as the three m ost im portant factors to customers in the 1995 Dalbar Ratings, a nationwide customer satisfaction survey.

The sta te 's seasonally adjusted jobless rate dipped from 5.4 percent in Septem ber to 4.7 percent last month, when 14.500 unemployed people found work. For the first time in nearly five years, unemployment was lower in the Phoenix metropolitan area than in the Tucson area. The jobless rate in the Phoenix metro area was 3.5 per­ cent. while it was 3.6 percent in the Tucson area. The drop in unemployment was reflected in the state’s labor force — a total of 2.05 million people had jobs in October, said Ron Simon, a DES econom ist.

Budget woes not over yet GOP, Clinton brace for more talks Republicans gain WASHINGTON (AP) — With a budget to protect social programs, as the White but fight not over truce revving the government back to life, House insisted. It was approved Sunday by the W hite House and congressional R epublicans pledged M onday to use December talks to champion divergent spending priorities that have so far been irreconcilable. The GOP signaled possible give on its prized tax cut. D em ocrats and R epublicans alike seemed relieved that the longest-ever par­ tial federal shutdown was ending, a six-day ordeal that had both parties fearing retribu­ tion by disgusted voters. But there was doggedness, too, and W hite House spokesman Mike McCurry warned, “We’ll be right back where we were” unless the two sides strike a budget deal by midDecember. A day after bipartisan leaders shook hands on a pact reopening government through Dec. 15, the House overwhelming­ ly approved the measure 421-4 and shipped it to President Clinton for his signature. The legislation commits both sides to seeking a balanced budget in seven years using con­ gressional economic calculations, which Republicans had demanded for months, and the Senate. Before recessing for Thanksgiving, the House also gave final congressional bless­ ing to the GOP plan for balancing the budget by 2002 on a mostly party-line 235-192 vote. It w ould o verhaul Medicare, slice scores o f programs and trim taxes for millions. Clinton’s long-promised veto of that measure will serve as the starter’s flag for bargaining that Republican leaders said they hoped would begin next Monday. With those sessions in mind, the GOP pre­ pared to send a letter to Clinton asking that he provide them with a detailed, sevenyear budget-balancing plan of his own next week. The president had long said that the G O P’s seven-year, budget-balancing timetable would force overly harsh spend­ ing cuts; Democrats said Monday that to meet that schedule, the key in upcoming negotiations would be to force Republicans to shrink their planned $245 billion tax break for families and businesses. AP news analysis By DAVID ESPO , Associated Press Writer WASHINGTON — Benefiting from brinksmanship, the Republicans gained substantial ground from the partial govern­ ment shutdown when President Clinton and the Democrats agreed to negotiate a sevenyear balanced budget. The W hite House and its allies in Congress came away with important, lastm inute language protecting M edicare, Medicaid and other programs they have been defending all year. But even as both sides rushed to claim victory on Monday, they looked ahead to the difficult talks ahead. “In this time of euphoria, we must remember we’ve agreed to a temporary cease-fire and not a perma­ nent settlement,” said Rep. Bill Richardson, D-N.M. Translation: Pass the ammunition. That’s not surprising on an issue that m ore than any other has divided Republicans from Democrats this year and will have momentous impact on the lives of Turn to Fight, page 9. Bosnia talks leave many issues unresolved DAYTON, Ohio (AP) — Balkan nego­ tiators worked past a U.S.-imposed deadline and into the night M onday to settle E urope’s bloodiest conflict since W orld War II. But they sug­ gested a new round of talks might be needed to resolve the con­ tentious issue of how to divide Bosnia. As the talks teetered on the verge of collapse, President C linton intervened from Washington with a last-ditch telephone cgll to C roatia’s President Franjo Tudjman. Senior members of both the Bosnian and the Serbian delegations confirmed that the talks had run into trouble over territorial issues but stressed that negotiations were continuing into the night. “They are still going on,” State Department spokesman Nicholas Bum s said of the talks Monday evening. “They haven’t broken down.” “I think the people here are determined to continue these negotiations,” he said. “We are in extra innings,” said a senior U.S. official as Secretary of State Warren Christopher rejoined the talks Monday m orning with only tw o h o u rs' sleep. “Maybe at the end of the day we’ll take stock of where we are. We’ll take it one step at a time, hour by hour.” Christopher met several times with all three Balkan leaders. “We’re still talking, and that’s a positive sign,” another UTS. official said late Monday afternoon. Workers began loading baggage onto a Yugoslav airliner after they were checked by bomb-sniffing dogs. The second offi­ cial, speaking on condition of anonymity, said Christopher and all three Balkan presi­ dents were leaving Monday night — agree­ ment or not. Clinton, however, called Tudjman to urge him to help resolve territorial problems and he received “an encouraging reply,” said a senior Clinton administration official, speaking by telephone form Washington. The Serbs and Muslims Sunday night vir­ tually settled their territorial differences, but Croatia balked at going along, the official said, speaking on condition of anonymity. Another administration official said a comprehensive pact looked less likely as the day wore on. The parties may put in writing “the progress to date, which has been significant” but which falls short of a full agreement, the official said.

But we had confidence that a new, presiden­ tial-type Bill Clinton had arrived. But t h e n y o u blinked. You had everything on the line here. Your past rhetoric on this issue really left you with hobtherchoice but to stand tq> to the GOP on such things as Medicare or the environment. And, during the course of last week’s shutdown, we finally began to believe in you. Until you caved in, that is.

Gingrich kicked your butt on this one, and you know i t What happened to your bluster about not agreeing to a commitment to balance the budget in seven years?

Violence against women has been getting a lot of press in our newspaper lately, and with good reason. With the number of rapes that have occurred since the beginning of the semester, this form of sexual assault is becom­ ing impossible to ignore. It’s time we treat violence against gays and lesbians in the same manner. In September. Mark Sauer, an ASU student and promi­ nent gay activist, died after he was forced off HIV treatments due to multiple gunshot wounds to his leg. The would-be assailant fired at Sauer because of his sexual orientation. Last year, an ASU student was beaten viciously simply because he and a friend, both gay, were leaving a bar after a night out. These are just two of numerous physical attacks against gays and lesbians. Just last week, new statistics about the number of hate crimes against these groups in the Phoenix metropolitan area was released. The results are indicative of a frightening and selfdestructive homophobic society. Not only are hate crimes on the rise, but most committed against Phoenix-area gays and lesbians involve physical attacks, which Mark Colledge, an activist with Valley of the Sun Gay and Lesbian Community, claims reflects a national trend. Furthermore, the crimes involve what is called “forensic overkill.” As Colledge stated in an Associated Press wire story reprinted in the Tempe Tribune last Tuesday: “That means the violence goes far beyond what’s needed to commit the crime. For instance, in a stabbing, they’ll stab the victim over and over and over again, even after they’re dead.” It sounds like there are still some people out there are dealing with misdirected, ignorant and malicious hostility. It’s horrible enough to physically abuse someone just because they don’t share your sexual orientation. But to beat them past the point of death is abominable behavior for anyone, especially considering that we live in the politieally-correct 90s. Unless you are completely ignorant, it should be clear that homosexuality is not simply a lifestyle “preference.” It is not evil. It is not a crime against God and nature. J I ’m «a « n nr> o tv i True homosexuality in a person is as inherent tot K them as the fact that human beings breathe air instead of water. A recent Time magazine article announced that further evidence linking genetic predisposition and homosexuality in men has been discovered. Scientists have found that twothirds of pairs of the homosexual brothers studied share dis­ tinctive patterns along a segment of the X chromosome they receive from their mothers. There is little possibility that this genetic pattern is a fluke. Though this evidence is not conclusive, and such genetic evidence has not yet been found in women, the results of this recent study are just another step in a direction that can lead to proof that homosexuality may be genetically influ­ enced rather than simply a result of a choice or of external and environmental influences. Despite all of this, state legislators, in efforts that passed in Colorado and failed in Maine, are still advocating anti­ gay legislation. Openly-gay men and lesbian women are heckled on the street. Gays and lesbians are attacked in press opinions and political cartoons. There are still people who believe that AIDS is a welcome plague to banish gays and lesbians from the face of the earth. And there are still certain sick individuals who find it perfectly reasonable to target gays and lesbians for extinc­ tion by inflicting violence upon them. Many heterosexual people cannot seem to grasp the con­ cept that there might possibly be more than one genetic code for sexuality. These are the people who fear a lifestyle that they do not understand, who find homosexual conduct “gross,” who promote homophobic attitudes and gay-bashing. One of my gay friends, who hid his sexual orientation for years, once confessed that he was so embarrassed and sick­ ened by society’s attitudes toward his lifestyle that he would give anything if he could change it and live a “normal” life* It’s a crime that our society could drive an intelligent, attractive and sound-minded individual to believe he’s a freak. Gays and lesbians should never have to change or hide their lifestyles just so heterosexuals will consider them “normal.” ~ And gays and lesbians should ever be forced to hide something that is so intrinsically a part of them because cer­ tain ignorant people are unwilling to deal with the truth. It’s not always easy to slog through the mess of life. Human beings are communal creatures, and it’s natural to seek out a life partner to support you on the journey. Choosing someone of the same sex to walk that road with you is never a legitimate reason for someone else to subject you to physical or emotional abuse.

Those bright young % Republican clones Of Newt had | | J seized Congress and launched their yappy-yuppie revolution. Sure, the Democrats still had the White House. But New t’s lads were almost laughing in the / i face of President Clinton, who' co u ld n ’t seem to get anything right. And when he happened to, he'd change his mind the next day and get it all wrong. v So the question Wasn’t whether Clinton could be re­ elected. That thought was laughable. The only question was who the Republicans would choose to evict Clinton and finally and mercifully put an end to the suffering of the Democratic Party. The pundits saw It that way. Newt’s lads did, too. So did all of those weary Democrats in Congress who decid­ ed the end of political life was near, and they didn’t want to run again. We were about to enter the greatest era in Republican history. By the new century, liberalDemocrats would be as rare as conservative war veterans. Except that we forgot that Republicans have as great a talent for goofing up as the Democrats. And boy, oh boy. did they do it. A few days ago. they had a potential candidate who would have peeled Clinton as easily as a tangerine. Yes, I'm talking about Colin Powell. Distinguished mili­ tary man, but hot a chest-thumping bully. Mature, yet still youthful. Articulate, but not a bull-shooter. An intellectual, but not dogmatic or superior. Quiet but not weak. Confident but not arrogant. Of humble origins, but Without -sullen resentments. Just about as perfect a candidate as either party could imagine. And to boot, he is of African-American ancestry sion. That gives her something in common with about 50 million other adult Americans. tilthough he doesn’t make a big deal out of it. It’s assumed that her depression is caused by an imbal­ You would think that every sensible Republican in the country would have said: “We haven’t had anyone like him ance'in body chemistry. Or maybe it has to do with her since Ike. Patriot, hero, statesman, charmer. He will not husband becoming a Republican and having to associate only get our votes, but he will bring us the young, since with klutzes. They should have been kissing his shoes, instead, one they are not saddled with our racial bigotry; he will bring us after another, the spokesmen for the rigid right made it the growing middle-class Black vote; he will bring us root­ d e a r that while they wouldn’t mind Powell becoming a less liberals and independents. And he has no soiled politi­ cal baggage. Poor Clinton — all he’ll get is the afternoon- Republican and helping them win elections, he wasn’t their idea of a presidential candidate. rate motel vote.” So he took the hint and got out and they were happy. Yes, the R epublicans could have grabbed it all. But they got up the next day and looked around, and Instead, they chose to assure us the survival o f the those who aren’t too stupid or dogmatic saw what they two-party system. Just when it appeared that Powell would declare his can­ had done. They left themselves with as motley a collection of didacy, the right wing lT o f : Morgan cartoon not based on hate — just different perspective In defense of Bryce Morgan, I think he should be com­ ended on his ability to get people to think about such conjversial issues. I’d also like to thank him for having the w age to speak (draw) from a point of view that is not ■litically correct. On the issue of the cartoon about homosexuals being ate” material, I disagree. Just because someone expresses i opinion that is based on different values from the norm >es not mean that they are hateful. I would also like to mention that the scientific evidence at homosexuals are “just bom that way” is theory, not law. hink that this might be part of what Morgan was trying to point out. In fact, there is just as much evidence of child­ hood abuse of many homosexuals as there is for the idea of a predetermined sexual orientation. And yes, this doesn’t apply to all homosexuals, but it is documented evidence. My intention in writing this letter is not to “point fin­ gers” or jump on the “bashing wagon,” but to encourage peaceful discussion of different points of view. If my com­ ments appear as hateful, I apologize. Steven S. Parks Junior Business Liz Montalbano said in her recent column on abor­ tion bans that no one knows when life begins. I hope her course of study requires biology because the facts of what defines life are spelled out; Living things are organized, they metabolize, they respond and they reproduce. This comes straight from a biology text­ book. Fetuses ate organized beings—they metabo­ lize, they respond and, if allowed to be bom and live a normal life, they reproduce. I ’m amazed that people have an easier time attributing life to a plant than to ahúman. If you need further evidence, consider the beating heart of a fetus. If a beating heart does not prove life, what does? Abortion does not support women’s rights bur ignores them and perpetuates the problems that women face. Abortion contributes to the myth that women must choose between careers arid families to be successful and puts aside important issues for women, such as balancing child care and a profes­ sion. It also confirms the mistaken notion that women are too emotional, unorganized or unpredictable to remember to use birth control effectively, M argaret Sanger, the orig in ato r o f Planned Parenthood who is often held up as the forerunner in the legalized abortion crusade, once wrote in a 1916 handbill: “Do you want any more children? If not, why do you have them? Do not kill, do not take life, but prevent.” It is Important that we all remember that many societies o f the past have justified brutality and killing by de-humanizing those for whom they had no use. Plantation owners believed that their Black slaves were not human and the Nazis convinced themselves that Jews were not human. Some would say to me, “Fine, you don’t believe in abortion, but don’t lim it my right to choose.” My answer? Abortion is wrong like slavery was: wrong. There is no room for acceptance. , Jennifer FroeUch junior Journalism Page 6 S t a t e P r e ss Tuesday, Novem ber 2 1 , 199S Police Report ASU police reported the following incidents Monday: • Employees at Staples in the Tempe Center set off the inmision alarm after going back into the store to look for a possible person hiding inside.

Charity’s mission for the birds B y B r ia n A n d e r s o n S tate P ress Turkey Day has arrived a little earlier this year for the folks over at the Society of St. Vincent de Paul. The charitable organization has teamed up with KPNXTV (Channel 12) in a quest to flock together more than 5,000 turkeys to help feed the poor on Thanksgiving. “The food is going to help feed people who are definite­ ly in need,” said Doreen Gradin, assistant community rela­ tions administrator for St. Vincent de Paul. “I know that college students don’t have a lot of money either, but it’s a good distribution to be able to reach quite a few people with a single donation.” One bird will feed about 16 people. Gradin said, adding that they hope to serve turkey dinners on both Thanksgiving and Christmas and once every week for the next year. St. Vincent de Paul has 24 locations around the Valley to feed the hungry. Turkey donations can be dropped off at Bashas’ stores at 1761 E. Warner Road in Tempe, 8740 E. Shea Blvd. and 4727 E. Bell Road in Scottsdale, 1122 N. Higley Road in Mesa and 3220 N. 7th Ave. and 2806 W. Cactus Road in Phoenix. Gradin added that donations are desperately needed in order to successfully help the hungry. “We need the turkeys now because we can’t really do a turkey drive in June,” Gradin said. “People don’t-think about it and it’s harder to do then. When people think about their own holidays coming up, then they start think­ ing that some people may not have a holiday.” DPS catches suspected car stereo thieves % OFF ALL IN-LINE m ACCESSORIES W h c d s .

Dick Gephardt, D-Mo., his party’s leader,in the House. “It’s how we balance the budget.” In the dozens of votes that lawmakers have cast in this first year of the Republican revolution, the ones on balanc­ ing the budget have hewed most closely to party lines. When the latest version of the GOP balanced budget bill moved through the House last week, only five Democrats out of 199 voted for it, and only one Republican out of 233 voted against. And when it cleared the Senate, 52 of S3. Republicans voted in favor, while all 46 Democrats were opposed. That bill called for squeezing hundreds of billions of dollars from Medicare, Medicaid and welfare, while leav­ ing room for a large tax cut. Short-term, the surest winners of last week’s battle are the hundreds of thousands of federal employees, hostages in a game of power politics, who are free now to return to work. Count among the victors, too, the m illions of 31 Recipe amount 33 Hearty dish 34 Sonar user E V 35 Fury imum sales of $ 1.5 billion per year, Azano said. He said lottery revenue would be provided to the states according to a formula based on population. The tribe has pledged to devote 10 percent of gross lot­ tery receipts to the states’ revenue-sharing program and 5 percent to non-gaming tribes. If the game lived up to projections of making $1.5 bil­ lion nationally, that would give Arizona $1,47 million a year in revenue sharing and $42.5 million a year to Arizona tribes without gambling. The National Indian Lottery claims several state attor­ neys general -— the most vocal of whom are from Florida, Connecticut and Minnesota — have urged long-distance phone carriers to refuse service to the lottery. The tribe has initiated legal action to compel long­ distance phone carriers to provide the service, according to Azano. i— r Americans whose applications for government benefits were piling up, and whose vacations to the nation’s incom­ parable parks and museums were threatened. Longer-terin, the winner of the political wars won’t be know until next November’s elections. Republicans and Democrats both brought strengths and weaknesses to the table last week as they battled through a six-day shutdown that idled nearly 800,000 federal work­ ers, . Republicans soar ip the polls when voters are asked whether they favor balancing the budget. Democrats do well when the question is asked differently: Do you favor cuts in Medicare, Medicaid and other programs. Thus, when Clinton vetoed legislation that provided an increase in Medicare premiums as a price for keeping gov­ ernment open, that was a winner for him and a loser for the Republicans. In the end, the compromise was classic Washington, a phrase deleted here, a word added there..

The Coeur d’Alene Tribe in Idaho plans the national phone game, and says a revenue-sharing plan it has would return $2.29 million to Arizona in various forms. That would offset an estimated $816,000 the state Lottery would lose from the competition, tribal spokesman Chip Azano told the Tucson Citizen. The promise of shared revenue doesn’t shake Woods opposition to the game, said his spokeswoman, Katie Kloos. “1 don’t think any of the attorneys general around the country like it,” Kloos said. “Grant doesn’t like it, and we’re looking into the legalities. You will see'an objection from this office, but it will take some time to get it done.
