Mike Gardner, R-Tempe, discusses proposition 200 at the Mémorial Union. “If Marijuana is proven to work better for medici­ nal use than prescription THC, then I would go ahead with it,” he said Though Rep. Mike Gardner, R-Tempe, killed his own bill banning Ebonics in Arizona classrooms, he indicated Wednesday the bill might resurface next session. “Next year is another story,” he said, speaking to a crowd of students at the Memorial Union about legislative issues, Ebonics is á term used to define black English dialect. G ardner has taken a strong stance against Ebonics', which he said is currently being taught in the Kyrene School District. D istrict officials, how ever, said that Ebonics is not approved by the school board for use in classrooms. “It is absolutely not a part of the curriculum,” said Mary Padilla, assistant to the district’s superintendent. Gardner was the primary sponsor of the anti-Ebonics b ill,'b u t said he killed it because o f concerns from the minority house leader. “All the Ebonics that I have ever heard —- it’s not proper English,” Gardner said. “It is not anything 1 want my kids learning and it’s probably not something you want your kids learning. You can’t get ahead in our society if you speak Ebonics.” In discussing current legislative topics, Gardner also probed students for their thoughts on Proposition 200. Part o f the proposition allows doctors to prescribe mari­ juana, LSD, PCP and all other Schedule O ne drugs for medical reasons. “Do we really want doctors being able to prescribe these drugs? And, should we have these doctors prescribe these drugs without FDA (Food and Drug Administration) test­ ing?,” Gardner asked. “I am not willing to say that I want doctors prescribing these drugs,” he said.

Classified staffi overtim e benefits need more work B y D ea n n a D arr Sta te P ress A classified staff survey revealed that nearly 60 percent of staffers feel benefits for overtim e could be improved, but few officials realized the issue was a concern. T he su rv e y w as c o n d u c te d by the C lassified Staff Council in Septem ber in order to gain a clearer picture of the issues concerning classified staffers, including salary and jo b satisfaction, said Jacque Gutierrez, president of the Classified Staff Council. The results were released earlier this semester. Current University overtime policy cor­ responds with the U.S. Fair Labor Standard Amendments of 1985, but is customized by different departments. Overtime can be compensated in one of two ways. The employee can either be paid time and a half for each hour worked over 40 hours a week, or they can be given time off from work equivalent to time and a half for each hour of overtime. U n iv ersity p o licy states th at fo r all em ployees hired on or before A pril 15, 1986, compensation for overtime should be made in the form of time off. Those hired after this date may choose time off in lieu of overtime pay. Gutierrez said she was unaware staffers were concerned with overtim e and com ­ pensation before the results of the survey were released. She said she was unsure what suggestions the staff might have to improve the system. “It’s not an issue for the near future,” Gutierrez said. “We don’t know how many people are affected.” Ted Cary, associate director of Facilities Management, said that during the years he has worked at ASU, most employees pre­ ferred to be paid for their overtime hours. Cary.added that his department prefers to pay overtim e w henever possible. “We don’t have enough staff to lose people to compensatory time,” he said. D ave B rix en , a sso c ia te d ire c to r o f F a c ilitie s M an ag em en t, said he also believes most employees prefer to be paid for their overtime. Brixen said within his departm ent are specific regulations as to when employees receive time off or overtime pay. If some­ one works past the normal end of their shift in order to finish a project, they receive compensatory time off, but if an employee is called in because o f an emergency he or she is paid overtime wages.

Students give free tax help B y A ly son Y o u n g S pecia l t o t h e S ta te P ress Thanks to ASU law students, local tax­ payers can get help with their paperwork for Uncle Sam. ASU students and the Tempe community can take advantage o f the free tax help in Room 119 o f Armstrong Hall every Tuesday through Thursday from 5 p.m. to 8 p.m. T he se rv ic e s , p ro v id e d th ro u g h Volunteer Income Tax Assistance (VITA), are sponsored by A SU ’s law school, the 1RS and the American Bar Association. Over 50 law students volunteered to par­ ticipate in the program and were certified by the 1RS to complete almost any tax form. Denise Gooding, a second-year law stu­ dent and the program ’s director, said the focus o f the service is on the elderly, foreign students and those with financial difficulties, although anyone can take advantage of it. Volunteer and second-year law student Cheryl Koch said she enjoyed participating in the program last year for many reasons. “I’m using something that I’ve learned to help others,” Koch said. “I think commu­ nity service is very important.” Those wishing to receive tax help should bring this year’s tax package — W-2 or 1099 forms, a copy of last year’s tax return and any additional income or deduction information. Foreign students can work with specially trained volunteers on Thursdays. “We don’t have this kind o f system in my country,” said Yu Deng, an ASU stu­ dent from China who completed his taxes with VITA’S help this week. “I definitely couldn’t figure it out by myself.” A nother recipient o f the services has been taking advantage of the program since it began at ASU in 1989 and she said it has been both rewarding and efficient.

Gardner told students it is important to be informed of current bills and the legisla­ tors that represent them. “It is amazing the number of things that we do day in and day out that does affect what happens in your life,” Gardner said. Gardner added that he is supporting a bill (hat would help keep government out of c itiz e n s ’ bed ro o m s, the A rchaic Law s Repeal Bill. “(The bill) pertains to things that happen in your bedroom,” he said. “There is a law that says if you share an apartm ent with someone of the opposite sex, it is illegal in Arizona. It is never enforced, but neverthe­ less it is the law of the land.” Overtime C ontinued from page 1.

A ccording to U niversity policy, once any em ployee has accrued 120 hours of time off, they must be paid for overtime. Very few staffers have ever reach this level, Brixen said. ASU Provost Milton Glick said he was also unaware of any concern over this issue. He said while there is discussion in Congress about a possible change in the law to allow for different means of compensation, the University is still ruled by the current laws. “We don’t have many choices,” he said.

R o b e rt T o rric e lli announced opposition Wednesday to the Republican-drafted balanced bud­ get am endm ent to the Constitution. He said it co u ld h am strin g future generations Confronting a m ilitary crisis, recession or the need for feder­ al construction. T o r r ic e l l i “We write riot for our time but for all limes.” said Torricelli, D-N.J., who has supported simi­ lar measures in the past. When it comes to making ¿ change in the 208-year-old Constitution, he added,,“good is not good enough.” ; Elected to the Senate last November,' the New Jersey Democrat thus became the 34th Democrat to oppose the measure, enough to ensure its defeat His decision confronted Majority Leader Trent Lott with a choice between offering concessions in hopes of gaining the elusive 67th vote in support o f the m easure — or watching it go down to the narrowest of defeats next week and try to pin the blame on the Democrats. “We’ll just have to keep fighting,” said Sen. Orrin Hatch, R-Utah., one of the amendment’s leading supporters. The proposal, a cornerstone of the Republican congres­ sional agenda, would require a balanced budget by 2002, with a three-fifths vote of the House and Senate to run a deficit thereafter. It cleared the House two years ago, when the Republican revolution was in full flower, but fell one vote shy of passage in the Senate. This time, it bogged down in the House, where some Republicans flinched in the face o f Democratic charges th at it could th reaten Social S ecurity b en efits. T hat prompted the GOP leadership to try to push it through the Senate first; Republicans argued the measure was needed to instill fiscal discipline in a government that has run deficits for nearly three decades. To dramatize their point, they stacked budget books several feet high on desks in the front row of the Senate, one thick volume for each of the years the bud­ get has been unbalanced. Within the new Senate, where all 55 Republicans sup­ port the measure, it quickly became clear that the swing votes were held by four newly elected Democratic senators. Tw o o f them , M ax C leland o f G eorgia and M ary Landrieu of Louisiana, announced their reluctant support over thé past several days. Sen. Tim Johnson of South Dakota declared his opposi­ tion last week, even though he, like Torricelli, had support­ ed a similar amendment only two years ago. Landrieu’s announcem ent on Monday left Torricelli squarely in the spotlight — a position clearly welcomed by a newcomer who has moved forcefully to establish his presence within his party and the Senate. He conferred privately with senior Democratic col­ leagues on Tuesday, spoke by telephone with President Clinton, delivered a formal maiden speech in the Senate at dinner time and met with Hatch in a room behind a dark­ ened chamber immediately afterwards. . The New Jersey Democrat voted for sim ilar am end­ ments twice before, most recently in 1995 in the House when he was preparing for his Senate candidacy. He told rep o rters th at he had done so to get the atten tio n o f Presidents Bush and Clinton at a time when deficits were approaching $300 billion. In the interim, he said, the deficit is closer to $100 billion, and added, “I could no longer claim that I was using this to make a point.” G reenspan sends w arning as W all Street p lu m m ets B y M a r tin C rotsinger A sso ciated P ress W ASHINGTON -r- Federal Reserve C h airm an A lan G reen sp an took his sharpest aim yet at the raging bull market Wednesday, warning of “excessive opti­ m ism ” on W all S treet and rem inding investors the Fed could launch a p re­ emptive strike against inflation. The comments roiled financial mar­ k e ts, se n d in g sto ck and bond p rices plunging. The Dow Jones industrial aver­ age was off more than 120 points in after­ noon trading but trimmed those loses to close down 66 points. In delivering his semiannual report to Congress on monetary policy, Greenspan used blunter and more detailed language to describe the central bank’s w orries than he had in a Dec. 5 speech. At that time, he first raised concerns that investors might be in the grips of “irrational exuberance.” Markets plunged around the w orld, but the im pact was short-lived and the Dow soon began set­ ting new records, crossing the 7,000point level in recent weeks. In his new testimony, Greenspan point­ edly mentioned that the Fed was closely monitoring financial markets and the over­ all economy and stood ready to raise inter­ est rates to fight pending price pressures. “This is a rather blunt warning that if the stock market continues to roar ahead, it is threatening to become a source of economic instability,” said Lyle Gramley, econom ic consultant at the M ortgage Bankers Association and a former Fed board member. American investors, including those saving for retirement, have been pouring money into the stock market, helping to fuel the rapid increases in stock prices in recent years. Greenspan and officials in the Clinton administration have begun to worry about the im pact on these investors, many o f whom are investing for the first time, if there is a sharp and prolonged fall in stock prices. In his appearance before'the Senate Banking Committee, Greenspan warned that U S. investors may have grown com­ placent about the risks. “We have had 15 years of economic' expansion interrupted by only one reces­ sion — and th at was six years a g o ,” Greenspan said. “As the memory of such past events fades, it naturally seems less sensible to keep up one’s guard against an adverse event in the future.” G reenspan said that rapidly rising prices for stocks and bonds can contribute to overall inflationary pressures in an economy. He also Warned that speculative bubbles always burst and that when asset prices do fall it could trigger a recession. “H istory dem onstrates that p artic i­ pants in financial markets are susceptible to waves of optimism,” Greenspan said. “Excessive optimism sows the seeds of its own reversal in the form o f im bal­ ances that tend to grow over time.” Joe Marquette/Associated Press Federal Reserve Board Chairman Alan Greenspan testifies on Capitol Hill Wednesday before the Senate Banking Committee hearing on the economy. In a pointed warning that sent stock prices tumbling, Greenspan told the committee that “caution seems especially warranted” over the extraordinary runup in the market. Israel approves Jerusalem housing project despite criticism B y D afna L inzer A sso ciate d P ress JERUSALEM Braving Palestinian warnings of vio­ lence,. Israel’s Cabinet voted W ednesday to build a new Jewish neighborhood in disputed east Jerusalem. The move drew sharp and swift criticism from the United States, Britain and the Arab world. Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu had wavered for weeks on whether to approve the 6,500-home Har Homa project in the city’s eastern sector, which the Palestinians want as a future capital. He went ahead under pressure from right-wing coalition partners. In a rare rebuke, the United States said the decision would erode “trust and confidence” between Israelis and Palestinians. “Frankly, the United States would have preferred a dif­ ferent decision,” State Department spokesman Nicholas Bums said in Washington. A fte r I s r a e l’s 12 C a b in e t m in iste rs u n an im o u sly approved the plan Wednesday, Palestinian leader Yasser Arafat met with his top aides. Later, his spokesman Nabil Aburdeineh condemned the decision as being “against the law and against the (Israel-PLO) agreements.” Building Har Homa “will put the peace process in dan­ ger and it will isolate Israel,” Aburdeineh said. A rafat’s C abinet secretary, Ahm ed A bdel Rahman, warned that Jerusalem is “a ball of fire, and if (it) explodes it will bum all other things.” Netanyahu suggested that a violent Palestinian response might endanger plans for Israel to pull out of more West Bank territory by March 7. “The peace process will be delayed, and if there will be a lot of violence, the whole thing could collapse — some­ thing that needs to interest the other side no less than it does us,” he said. He added that Israel’s security services were prepared to respond “very firmly” to any violence. Israel’s police and army deployed mpre troops in Jerusalem and parts of the West Bank to prevent protests. Israel army radio said some 500 police had already entered Jerusalem. The Israeli government’s decision in September to open an archaeological tunnel entrance next to Muslim holy sites set off three days o f riots that killed 80 people, mostly Palestinians. At the time, peace talks were going nowhere, and the violence helped prod Netanyahu’s government into speedi­ er negotiations. This time, Palestinians have more to lose if they return to the streets. In addition to the planned West Bank pullback, Arafat meets with President Clinton in W ashington next week, and U S. officials have told him hé must not encourage riots over Har Homa. Marwan Kanafani, a top Arafat aide, said the Palestinian leader was “upset and worried about the future of the peace process” but “will do whatever he can to return the peace process to the track.” He said Arafat spoke Wednesday night with Jordan’s King Hussein and Egyptian President Hosni Mubarak and had sent a letter on the housing issue to Clinton. Israeli Cabinet Secretary Danny Naveh said no starting date had been set for the east Jerusalem construction, but he expected preparations to be completed in several days. The Israeli group Peace Now planned to appeal to the Supreme Court to block the project. Israeli President Ezer Weizman, on a visit to Britain, said the Israeli decision should not halt the peace process. “This should not be a stumbling block. W e’ll overcome it and see Jerusalem blooming and building both for Arabs and Jews,” Weizman told reporters in London.

Cherise (not her real JACOBS name), a new member, looked familiar. It drove me crazy try­ Columnist ing to rem em ber how I knew her. It was like hearing a famil­ iar tune on the radio and being unable to rem em ber the title. As C herise looked me in the ey e, we b o th e x p e rie n c e d instant recognition. Years earlier, I was an intake worker. She was a mother with young children, allegedly abus­ ing drugs, violent and the children had not been seen in days. A policeman accompanied me because of the possibility of violence. Cherise was “higher than a kite” and swore that no one was taking her kids, who were 6 months, 2- and 3years-old. The baby drank from a bottle of soured milk as he lay in his own feces in a crib. It was 15 degrees below zero outside, the windows were wide open and the children were dressed only in diapers and Coughing spasmodically. “le a n see that you really love your children,” I said. She agreed and relaxed as I reminisced about my children at that age. I convinced her that because she loved her children and because they were sick, they had to be seen at the hospital. They were examined and treated. The physician and I agreed on a social admission — hospitalization for protection of the children pending a placement order. Once the children were admitted, I confronted her about her drug abuse and need for treatment; the children couldn’t go home until she had treatment. Cherise was tearful, but resigned. Another worker took over after the placement order; I never saw Cherise again. She went into rehab three times before it worked and she got her children back after 4 years of placement. She obtained her high school equivalen­ cy and is now working on a diploma in social work. At the parent-teacher meeting, Cherise feared I would divulge her past. I reassured her fears, and one day she told H me that taking her kids away was the best thing that could have happened — it was a wake-up call. It is one o f the kinds of situations that child protection workers throughout North America encounter. Yes, there are the rare success stories in child protection work. Recently we read about 58 children who did not have success stories. They were killed by their parents or caretak­ ers. I read every horrific detail about every child, so I could visualize how each child lived and died — and not become complacent. The tragedy is that this is not an Arizona story — it is a North American phenomenon. Read the newspaper of any major city to see the numbers o f children who are being killed by family or caretakers. Child protection is difficult work, requiring skilled staff members who are quick to identify abused or neglected chil­ dren as well as children who are in immediate danger. It requires a knowledge of child development, of abuse, the ability to defuse explosive situations, the ability to make tough decisions, good judgment and the ability to deal with the court system. It is undervalued and underpaid work, often done by new social workers who get their training in protection work on the job; and are only, marking time until they get a more rewarding position. An 18 percent Child Protective Services turnover rate Was cited for last year by Gannett newspapers. * Salaries for CPS workers are ridiculously low, consider­ ing the life and death decisions they arc asked to make. It was therefore incomprehensible to me, in light of the reports o f these 58 children, that the chairm an o f the Seriate Appropriations Committee will not allow his panel to hear Senate Bill 1207. The bill would provide $1.3 million for salary increases for CPS workers. It was not heard because apparently because increases for all state workers should be considered together. Not being an American, I have no say in this matter, but it seems to me that there comes a time when we have to put our money where our mouth is, if we truly hold the welfare of children paramount.

Sadly; m ost of these people overlook the truth of this mat­ te r, not th ro u g h s tu p id ity , but m erely th ro u g h ig n o ra n c e o f the fa c ts. ; Unfortunately, this sort o f ignorance leads to re p re s s io n and p e rse c u tio n a g a in st hom osexuals, w hich is unacceptable to people with real standards of morality. There are a handful of passages from the Bible that are used to suggest that homo­ sexuality is morally wrong, but a closer, more educated reading of the Bible shows this is not necessarily the case. Because the study of the Bible is not my area of focus, 1 re fe r you to D aniel H e lm in ia k 's book, What the B ible R eally Says A bout Homosexuality. Hclminiak, a double Ph.D. in systematic theology and educational psychology as well as a 25-year Roman Catholic priest, studied the Bible from its original Hebrew, Greek and Latin roots. What he found is that, in its original content, there is little to no criticism of homosexuality. “The Bible isn’t really talking about the sam e thing we are talking about if you read it as it was meant when it was writ­ ten. From that point o f view, the Bible says alm ost nothing about hom osexuali­ ty,” says Hclminiak. Helminiak believes even such apparently damning Biblical quotes as Leviticus 20:13 are not. in fact, attacks against gay sexuali­ ty. Although that passage calls the male to male sexual act an “abomination,” the intent of the passage is “to keep Israel from taking part in Gentile practices.” The argument in Leviticus is religious, not ethical or moral. T h at is to say, no th o u g h t is g iv e n to whether the sex in itself is right or wrong.” To put this in perspective, the eating of pork is also considered an abomination. A nother im portant area o f discussion takes place in what some would call the scientific or natural realm . The critical point to be understood is that the homosex­ ual lifestyle is a natural occurrence. It is, in reality, consistent with the natural process­ es o f the universe. Put another way, man d id not c re a te h o m o se x u a lity . Homosexuality is a regular occurrence in anim als. G en eticists are try in g to lock down biological causes o f homosexuality and although they have not succeeded in finding the definitive answer, they have made significant breakthroughs. I would be willing to bet that most of those who attack homosexual behavior do not know any gay people. I have known two homosexuals well. One was an uncle, the other a close family friend. Both died from AIDS related diseases, contracted before the flood o f aw areness we have now. In other words, they both contracted the disease when it was still a “gay” dis­ ease and the “straight” community wasn’t that interested in AIDS prevention. The most important thing I learned from them is th at th e ir se x u a lity w as n o t a “choice.” Their desires were as natural to them as my heterosexual desires are to me. For their natural desires, they both received the wrath o f a society that did not under­ stand. The family friend, a concert pianist and hairdresser (talk about stereotypes!), had a crooked pinkie finger from his father slamming the door on it. It seems he was always attracted to men and his father fig­ ured it out early on. The physical abuse was his father’s way of trying to dissuade his son from that sort of behavior. My u n cle to ld a sto ry a b o u t b ein g pulled over by the police late one Saturday M o r a lit y in s o c ie t y f a d in g o u t as r e lig io n -p h o b ia sets in In ev ery th in g , th e re is a point o f beginning, a point of reference. It is important for there to be things which are s ta b le , s ta tio n a ry and unchanging. W h en w e n a v ig a te o n land, we use landm arks and a com pass to orient ourselves and find o a r w ay. M ariners trusted in th e ir sex tan t and the N orth S ta r to g e t them fro m p o in t to p o in t w i t h ^ accuracy. If these things were constantly changing position, they would he unreliable and useless in o u r navi­ gational efforts. Surveyors use a point o f beginning and a baseline (which is where Baseline Road got its name). They are carefu l to accurately place m onum ents (sm all brass plates, imbedded in the ground) and record their loca­ tio n s . It is a g a in s t th e law to rem o v e th em . T hey becom e im portant fo r all future m easurem ents. They become the standard. This may not seem important, but only those things which are unchanging can be used as a reference point. W ithout referen ce poin ts, C h risto p h er C olum bus would have been unable to return to the safety o f Spain. Those who followed would have bad to blindly guess where they were going. Without landmarks, Lewis and Clark would not have been able to map out the great western expanse o f this nation. S om ething as sim ple as a property boundary would be uncertain. Deuteronomy 27:17 says, “Cursed be he that removetb his neighbour’s landmark.” U n fo rtu n a te ly , o u r so ciety a p p ears h e ll-b e n t on removing anything that resem bles a landmark. Nowhere is this more evident than in Generation X. M arianne Jennings teaches ethics in die MBA pro­ gram. Two-third* o f h er students are on shaky ground when it conies to values. According to an article m the Chandler Tribune, m any o f these students have grown up with no moral code. I wonder w h y .: Almost 15 years ago, Kentucky sought to put copies of the Ten Commandments into every classroom. ’S i s , they felt, was appropriate, since o a r system o f laws is based on this document. They still had historical signifi­ cance and secular value. They also fell, even then, that there was an absence o f values in our youth. In denying their cause in the 1980 case. Stone v. Graham, the justices said, “If the posted copies o f the Ten Commandments are to have any effect at ail, it will be to induce the schoolchildren to read, meditate upon, perhaps to v enerate and obey, the C om m andm ents. However desirable this might be as a matter o f private devotion, it is not a permissible state objective... ” Imagine that! We have so tried to insulate ourselves from anything that smacks o f religion that we have removed even the most basic set of rules from our society. These are rules that have guided western civilizations for thousands of years. These are foundations to o u r entire system o f laws. They primarily deal with our relationships with one another, o f our responsibility to one another. In remov­ ing them, we have set an entire generation adrift without any moral bearings. This casts considerable light on the increased involvement o f our youth in crime. Rape, robbery and murder are at record levels in this country. The Center for Disease Control recently said that guns were mostly to blame for the violent deaths o f our youth. W e have always had guns, but we have also had a moral foundation to help people value life and m aintain self- control. Now this is gone. Im agine if som e o f these kids had reflected on “ thou shall not kill,” and obeyed. It is no shock that Jennings' students are m issing something. Since bur laws are based on this concept, it is no surprise that her students accuse her o f “preaching Judeo-Christian values." In my estimation, she is to be commended. Whether she knows it or not, she is rebuild­ ing the monuments and re-establishing the landmarks. The Constitution mentions freedom o f religion, not freedom from religion. It is difficult to have respect for an educational system that fails to inform students of reli­ gious thought that has shaped the world, a world for which they are being prepared. Though not all of her students embrace her teaching, Jennings is doing the right thing. A s a society, with responsibility to one another, we should aggressively pursue the re-establishment o f basic morals for future generations, or we’ll not have a future. Imagine that George D. Rose Sr. is a junior studying public relations and can be.reached at WnteSt907@aol.com. night. They found a gay Advocate maga­ zine in his car and making some associa­ tions, decided to use him as a pinball for awhile. Research shows that these stories are n o t u n ique in the gay co m m unity. Prejudice against gays is institutionalized in this country. Check the military. Check the churches. Check the Defense o f Family Act passed by the last congress. Is this prejudice reasonable? I d o n ’t think so. Being gay is n o ta Choice. Think about it. With the predominate attitude of our society, who would choose to be gay? You either are homosexual or you are not. I’ve had a significant exposure to gay peo­ ple and I’m still straight. It’s not catching. If God or genetics or whomever or whatev­ er created homosexuals naturally, then why sh o u ld h o m o se x u a ls be the o b je c t o f ridicule, violence or prejudice? In reference not only to those who prac­ tice an active prejudice, but to the ignorant who justify their-attitude toward homosexu­ als through insupportable moral posturing, I leave them with the words of one of my fel­ low columnists: “My hope is that those to whom this article refers will see this not as an attack on them, but as an appeal to turn away from a destructive lifestyle choice.” Rick Liljegren is a graduate student o f cre­ a tive w riting and can be reached at Rick.

Baumgartner delivers As I was perusing through Tuesday’s State Press, I saw the word “bastard” on page five; as I looked further I came to find that I, in fact, was the “bastard.” Even more surprising than calling me a bastard was the most compli­ mentary description featured in the column or article of propaganda — take your pick. More offensive were the two words “empty promises,” referring to the platform I p itch ed to my “fellow Sun D ev ils” last S pring.

I pledged to provide representation for ASU students in Election ‘96. Aside from President Clinton visiting our campus, voter registration on campus broke ASU records, and T hosted the first Arizona Leadership Reception which allowed students to personally chat with local and federal politicians. I vowed to create a Spring Traditional Event; Mardi Gras is March 31 through April 4 — see you there. Lastly, I said I would improve ASU pride and tradi­ tions; Homecoming was a huge success and the Sun Devil Football Team obviously helped me out on this particular issue. Those were the four promises I made. Maybe you don’t like them, maybe you don’t like me, but my promis­ es were not empty. You do n ’t need to w orry about me “destroying the vision” Adrian Fontes has for our student government. I was nearly brought to tears as you described the revolu­ tion o f change that Fontes and his “rag-tag group o f stu­ dent activists” began. By the end of the article, I wanted to join the crusade against the “evil empire,” but when my emotions peaked and 1 wanted to take action, 1 realized the “evil empire” was me. As the visions of me marching down Palm Walk, light saber in hand, to save the helpless students of ASU from the “evil empire” faded from my head, I remembered that I graduate in May, so I will not be here to “dism iss or destroy” anyone’s vision, including Fontes’ o f creating the utopia o f student governments.

The council has been reviewing the issue for the past year! A public hearing will be held at 7:30 p m. tonight before the council votes. The codes would require that rental properties be retrofitted to meet die new sta n d a rd s. S om e o f th e s ta n d a rd s include minimum heat requirements for hot water and minimum space require­ ments for living areas. Almost half of Tempe residents live, in apartments, according to 1990census figiffes. C ity officials expert a 2,000-tenant co m p lain t in crease i f the co des are passed. Currently, file city gets about 3,400 complaints a year. Members of the Arizona Multibousing Association and die Arizona Association of Realtors have voiced complaints against the code. They charge that die retrofitting required to meet the standards wifi drive up rental prices and is unnecessary because adequate codes are already on the books. Tenant association officials who sup­ port the codes have expressed concern over a requirement that complaints can only be made by tenants and must first be made to the landlord.

His colleagues are just Pooling themselves if they think they’ve found a planet abotrtjialf the size o f Jupiter orbiting the distant star 51 Pegasi, Davi&Tjray charges in a paper to be published Thursday. When itsydiscovery was announced 16 months ago, the so-called pl/net was thought to be the first ever found orbiting a star other than the sun. W hat astronom ers really see when they look at 51 Pegasi, Gray concludes, are regular pulsations of a lone star that mimic the effect of an orbiting plahet. “Something else is going on, and it's no longer reason­ able to talk about a planet pulling the star around,” Gray, a p ro fesso r o f astronom y at the U niversity o f W estern Ontario in London, said in a telephone interview. Since the O ctober 1995 announcem ent, astronom ers have found evidence of planets orbiting about TO sunlike stars. The planet discoveries have ushered in a new astro­ nomical era, with researchers conjuring images of distant worlds similar to Earth’s own solar system, perhaps even capable o f supporting life. NASA A dm inistrator Dan Goldin has made it one of his agency’s primary goals to snap a picture of a planet light-years away and collect basic information about its composition. NEW YORK (AP) — Love was in — and on — the air when James Brown popped the question to Rolonda Watts during a taping o f her Rolonda talk show. W atts, who has dated the Godfather o f Soul casually since January, didn’t give Brown an answer after his sur­ prise proposal Tuesday. “Darling, we’ve been trying to keep this thing quiet, but I think it’s time we let people know. ... You know I’m crazy about you, so how about tying the knot?” Brown told Watts, according to show spokeswoman Daniella Cracknell. Watts responded: “W e’re going to continue this discus­ sion on the phone later. James.” • Cracknell said Watts had maintained that the 68-yearold Brown is an “uncle” figure and a mentor. The two met Gray’s research doesn’t threaten all of that — just some of it. Gray directly questions the existence of only one o f the new planets — the one thought to orbit 51 Pegasi — and casts suspicion on two or three like it. N evertheless, his suggestion that the planet that got things rolling really doesn’t exist has pulled planet hunters down from their mountaintop observatories and onto their favorite battleground — cyberspace. “The conclusion claimed by Dr. David Gray is extraor­ dinarily premature,” Swiss astronomers Michel Mayor and D idier Queloz, the discoverers o f the 51 Pegasi planet, wrote on a W eb page m aintained by the U niversity o f Geneva astronomy-department. The issue is so contentious partly because astronomers can’t really see planets orbiting distant stars. They use indi­ rect methods, carefully gauging changes in the star’s light, to suggest the presence of planets. Lots of things can cause starlight to change slightly, but what planet hunters look for is an oscillation caused by a star’s wobbling motion. A slight wobbling indicates that the gravitational pull of some invisible planet is tugging the star around. So far astronomers have detected light variations that look like such wobbling in many distant stars. They’ve con­ cluded there’s a planet responsible in a few cases. Not so fast, says Gray, at least in the case of 51 Pegasi. “Although at this stage, the cause of the ... variations in 51 Pegasi are not fully understood, the chance o f their being caused by a planet is vanishingly small”’ Gray writes in Thursday’s issue of the British journal Nature. He observed the 51 Pegasi 39 times between 1989 and 1996, noting each time how a very precise color of light was shifted away from its normal value. The pattern of shifts he collected, more detailed than any other observa­ tions o f the star, rules out a planet, Gray concludes. He argues that subtle features he detected could be caused only by light variations in the star itself. If that’s true, said Alan Boss of the Carnegie Institution in Washington then 51 Pegasi must behave very unusually for a star so similar to the sun. Which makes Boss and many other astronomers suspicious. “The effect he’s finding is just sort o f barely there,” Boss said. “I don’t think it’s quite time to declare 51 Pegasi dead as a planet.” T he d eb ate m ay be se ttle d in the fall, w hen tw o astronomers from the University of Texas at Austin plan to check on the observations of 51 Pegasi. The star can’t be observed until then, because it is in the sky during the day in spring and summer. “It really needs to be confirmed,” Texas scientist Artie Hatzes said o f G ray’s research. “It’s potentially a very important discovery.” when Brown appeared on Rolonda last month. “I had no idea that the time I have been spending with James would take such a serious turn,” Watts said. Enquirer were not returned Wednesday. SANTA MONICA, Calif. (AP) — Brooke Shields and Andre Agassi just wish the tabloids would leave them alone. The couple sued the Star and National Enquirer on Tuesday, claiming that several articles last year about their relationship were defamatory. They seek $2 million in dam­ ages. O ne a rtic le , “ B rooke W edding D isa ste r. A gassi explodes!” was based on nonexistent sources and therefore false, the two claim.

(AP) — A 6-year-old boy sa y s a te e n -a g e b oy s e x u a lly a s s a u lte d hint w hen Northwest Airlines put them up in the same hotel room after they missed connecting flights. B loom ington P olice d etective Ross Sw anson said W ednesday that his department presented the results of its investigation Tuesday to the Hennepin County attor­ ney’s office, which he said was reviewing the case. “Our investigation is completed and it’s down there,” Swanson said. “I hope they make a decision this week, one way or the other.” Jennifer Fling, a spokeswoman for the county attor­ n e y ’s o ffic e , said to d ay th at p ro se c u to rs co u ld not release apy information on the case because of the age of the suspect. Northwest spokesman Jon Austin said today that the airline was declining comment on the case. The 14-year-old boy denied any wrongdoing, police said. The boys, both of whom were flying alone and did not know each other, missed connecting flights during a bliz­ zard Jan. 4 at Minneapolis-St. Paul International Airport. The 6-year-old was flying from Tucson, Ariz., and the 14-year-old was flying from Seattle. E agan-based N orthw est put them up at the H ilton Hotel in Bloomington, with a security guard outside the door. They were among several stranded children sent to the hotel that night, Swanson said. On the flight home the next day, the younger boy told fellow passengers he was assaulted. They told his moth­ er, who called Bloomington police, Swanson said. W CCO-TV o f M inneapolis said the older boy was returning home to Sioux Falls, S.D., and the younger boy was returning hom e to M ichigan’s U pper Peninsula. Swanson confirmed that the older boy was from South Dakota and that younger boy was from M ichigan, but would not be more specific. “ I think som ething happened here,” Swanson said. “The little boy was believable.” PR EM IER E G O O D W ILL OPENING THURSDAY MARCH 6 AT 9AM ev o » « NEW LOCATION SOUTHERN & MCCLINTOCK 3 1 2 2 S .

The fast-food giant will be taking a loss. The cost of the ingredients alone — two all-beef patties, special sauce, let­ tuce, cheese, pickles, onions and .a sesame seed bun — is about 40 cents. But McDonald’s hopes to make it up by drawing in more customers and requiring that the Big Mac be sold with a drink and fries. The Big Mac, introduced in 1972, normally sells for about $2. McDonald’s will put the ‘Campaign 55” promotion to a vote Thursday in a closed-circuit telecast to its 2,700 franchisees. M cDonald’s has “been showing declining same-store sales in the U.S. for six quarters in a row and this is a move to reverse that trend.” said Dick Adams, who represents hundreds of franchisees. McDonald’s recently began cutting prices of some products. including Chicken McNuggets, and offering two Big Macs'for $2. But the new cuts would significantly raise the stakes in the battle to win back customers from Burger King and Wendy’s. Fast-food stocks tumbled Wednesday on the possibility of a price war. McDonald’s stock fell $2.50 on the New York Stock Exchange to $44.75 a share. Wendy’s fell 1.62 112 to $20.62 1/2. Burger King’s parent fell $2.25 to $20. “If 55 cents ends up being the price point that sticks, then I can guarantee you the other fast-feeders will have an item at 55 cents,” said analyst Allan Hickok at Piper Jaffray in Minneapolis. '‘Otherwise, they will see a lot of their cus­ tomers in competitors’ parking lots.” Campaign 55 refers to the year McDonald’s was founded. The 55-cent package will rotate over the next year from die Big Mac to the Quarter Pounder to the McRib and the Arch Deluxe. M cDonald’s spokesman Jack Daly denied a report in The Wall Street Journal that the company will also make a 55-seconds-or-it’s-free guarantee.

S t a t e P ress P a g e 13 Thursday, February 27,1997 Auditor recommending overhaul o f American Indian funds B y P h il ip B rasher A sso c ia te d P ress much money is in many of the accounts. Homan said the money is managed by hand. WASHINGTON — The Interior Department would be stripped o f its responsibility for more than $2 billion in American Indian money under a plan to overhaul the trust fund and bring it into the computer age. Paul Homan, appointed in 1995 to find a way to straighten out the funds, recommended today establishment o f a quasigovemmental agency to handle the money with an $80 million computerized accounting system. Auditors say Interior’s Bureau of Indian Affairs has been mismanaging the money for years and can’t even say how “ F m told that C ongress doubts the credibility o f the bureau to im plem ent these reform s and I do, too,” H om an said in an interview . “ T hey d o n o t have the com petence o r training or qualifications to run a m ortem trust system .” Even with the new accounting system, huge problems will remain, Homan acknowledged. Half the individual Indian accounts contain less than $10 each, and cost $40 to $60 a year to maintain. The accounts con­ tain payments from interests in land and minerals. Because of Indian inheritance patterns, some parcels of land have hun­ dreds o f owners. Another problem is that some 45,000 accounts have no addresses or names on them. One account with no name is worth $1 million, Homan said. The BIA also has a 2-year backlog in recording deaths of account holders, Homan said. The funds include $2 billion held in 2,000 tribal accounts and $450 million held in 300,000 accounts for individual Indians. The Interior Department is working on a plan to reconcile the tribal funds, and is the target of a class-action lawsuit over its handling of the individual Indian accounts.

I expect her to do well in the Pac-lOs.” Tang and Hill both agree that this has been her best year, not only in training and time improvement, but in overall per­ formance and enjoyment. “Individually. I had the best season of all four years put together." Tang said. “This year was the most consistent that I’ve been and it showed in (my) performances.” This season Tang has already qualified for the NCAA Bstandard in the 50-yard freestyle. The B-standard does not guarantee a spot in the NCAA Championships, but it is a con­ sideration cut. Tang said that if she takes off four-tenths of a second on her time in the 50 ffeesyle she will automatically qualify for the championships. Currently she is ranked 22nd nationally in the 50. Tang’s years of being on the ASU women’s swimmingteam have not always gone as well as this year. Actually, when Tang was in high school she had not planned to swim in col­ lege or attend ASU. “I didn’t bother asking any schools for scholarships. I was on my way to UofA when the housing didn’t work out,” Tang said. “But I decided not to go there, which was probably the best decision of my life.’’ Instead, Tang decided to go to ASU and walk-on and try out for the team. Tang said that she couldn’t finish (he first practice of tryouts, and thought that she wouldn’t be able to make it. “He (Hill) took a chance on me and let me stay on the team,” Tang said. “I kept working at it There was ho where else to go but up.” For most of Tang's freshman season she was bothered by inflammation of the intercostal in her ribs, but her times did improve and she was among the team leaders in the backstroke. Tang feels that her sophomore year was “the roughest year” . She was still struggling with her injury and contemplat­ ed quitting. She did continue to swim well, though and became one of only three Sun Devils to swim the 100 backstroke in under a minute. That year she took the summer off and debated about returning in the fall. “My junior year is when I really started improving.” Tang said. “My speed has gotten a lot faster, my technique has improved substantially. My whole attitude and outlook on Pat Shannahan/State Press ASU senior swim captain Dorra Tang has reason to smile. She recently surpassed her personal-best time in the 50-yard freestyle and qualified for nationals. swimming has turned around.” In Tang's junior year her progress was seen in her perfor­ mances. Last year she set a personal best in the 50 freestyle (23.92 seconds), which was the second best on the team. In the 100 backstroke, her time of 58.71 was third best on the team. Tang beat her personal best in the 50 free recently at the duel meet against the UofA with 23.75. Tang’s other personal bests are 52.50 in the 100 freestyle, 58.87 in the 100 back­ stroke and 2:06.90 in the 200 backstroke. As the captain of this year's team, Tang has numerous responsibilities. Both Hill and assistant coach Asher Green think that she is a great team captain because she is very teamoriented and so enthusiastic about swimming. “I feel like I’m the mother of the team,” Tang said. “I’ve got to make sure that everybody is getting along, and that when they come to practice it’s going to be all swimming.
