Tempe considers changes in teen-night ordinance

By Angela Mull
State Press
	A public hearing to consider Club 411's 
request to 
continue as a bar and night club with summer 
teen nights may 
be postponed a second time, a club 
representative said 
Tuesday. 
	Club 411 will probably request a 
continuance until 
December because of the absence of two Tempe 
City Council 
members at the scheduled Nov. 16 hearing, 
said Vincent 
Johnson, a Club 411 partner. The hearing was 
already moved 
once from Oct. 19 to Nov. 16.
	Councilman Ben Arredondo said one 
advantage to a 
continuation is the council may revamp the 
teen-night 
ordinance on Nov. 16. Possible teen-night age 
limits could be 
set at 18 years and older or 16 years and 
older and would help 
with a decision about Club 411, he said. 
	"Where we define teen night will be a 
critical issue," 
he said. 
	Club 411 is seeking a two-year extension 
of a use 
permit allowing it to offer a bar, night club 
and teen-night 
activities. However, Tempe representatives 
from Community 
Development, the City Attorney's Office and 
Tempe police are 
recommending no teen nights and a use-permit 
renewal of 
only six months. They also recommend that 
Club 411 be 
required to get a license for such events if 
the council grants 
the request. 
	Debra Fink, a planner with Community 
Development, said their recommendation could 
change, 
however.
	Johnson said he does not agree with the 
current 
recommendation. 
	"The only problems are associated with 
hip-hop 
nights, which we discontinued, and teen 
nights, which we 
rectified," he said. "Teen night is very 
controllable as long as 
you implement preventative measures."
	But representatives are concerned about 
security at 
the club and teen night related problems 
outside of the club 
like crowd control and the discharge of 
firearms. In 
September, a gun was fired in the club's 
parking lot following 
a hip-hop night, although no one was hurt.
	Johnson said the establishment has since 
upgraded 
security measures with the addition of four 
sheriff's deputies in 
the parking lot. 
	In addition, Johnson said revenues from 
summer teen 
nights are necessary because half of Club 
411's usual ASU 
crowd is out of town.
	"We have to have (teen nights) to 
survive as a 
business," he said.
	But Tempe Councilman Joe Spracale 
disagreed.
	"Bars don't need to be making money on 
kids," he 
said, referring to teen-agers admitted into 
establishments 
serving liquor.
	Arredondo said teenagers should be 
involved in other 
activities.
	"When you're dealing with (younger 
teens) during the 
week, their place is with school activities," 
he said. 
	But Johnson said eliminating teen nights 
will not 
keep teenagers out of trouble.
	"You're always going to have teenagers 
on Mill 
Avenue," he said, adding that shooting 
incidents near the club 
along Mill Avenue cannot necessarily be 
blamed on the club.
	"There's going to be idiots at any time, 
at any place," 
he said.

Man barely avoids watery grave after truck roll-over

By Greg Zemeida
State Press
	A constuction worker came within two 
inches of 
death Tuesday after his truck rolled off a 
20-foot embankment 
and landed upside down in a small stream 
under the Red 
Mountain Freeway bridge at McClintock Drive.
	Neil Stephens was trapped inside his 
truck for about 
20 minutes, with only the top of his head 
above the 3-foot 
deep water, witnesses said.
	"The only thing he had above water was 
his nose," 
said Kevin Johnson, one of the men who pulled 
Stephens out 
of his truck. "He was in a very tough 
position."
	Stephens, a driver for Gila Recycling, 
was taken by 
ambulance to Scottsdale Memorial Hospital 
after inhaling 
water and is listed in serious condition. He 
had no other visible 
injuries, said Tempe Fire Department 
officials on the scene.
	Stephens was driving along a narrow 
stretch of dirt 
road under the bridge at about 3 p.m. when 
his truck slipped 
off the right side, Johnson said. He was 
hauling a full load of 
soil cement, used for the Rio Salado Project 
work being done 
under the bridge.
	Johnson said it took so long to get 
Stephens out 
because he and another man had trouble 
getting the driver's 
side door open. After that, they had to rip 
the front seat out to 
get to Stephens.
	During the incident, Stephens was 
conscious and 
talking to emergency workers, witnesses said. 
He had 
swallowed some water, but managed to keep his 
head above 
water most of the time.
	"He's lucky the water wasn't any 
deeper," said Officer 
Howard Glaberson of Tempe police.

International educational path available for interested students

By David J. Kovacs
State Press 
	Kim Horton's love affair with France 
started at an 
early age.
	"When I was in third grade, I had a 
teacher who was a 
travel agent," said the ASU graduate. "In the 
summer, she 
always traveled. She always talked about it 
and we did a lot of 
cultural inquiries (in class)."
	During high school, Horton traveled to 
Grenoble, 
France, for three weeks on her school's 
exchange program. 
She returned during her first two years of 
college, taking part 
in a work-study program.
	Before graduating from ASU in the spring 
of 1995 
with a degree in French, Horton spent her 
last semester 
attending University of Paris-Sorbonne as one 
of the 126 
University students studying abroad last 
spring.
	Keith Yazmir, campus relations 
coordinator, will give 
a seminar on working and traveling abroad 
today in the La Paz 
Room at the Memorial Union from noon to 1 
p.m. The 
seminars are designed for students interested 
in traveling to 
exotic locales.
	Qualified students can enroll in either 
an exchange or 
study-abroad program.
	Majchrowisz said the study-abroad 
program is 
specifically designed for American students 
and includes a 
semester-long intensive language course.
	The exchange program, however, allows 
students to 
take regular classes designed for foreign 
students, she said.
	In either program, she said students 
have a real 
incentive to learn their new language.
	"There's a different motivation to learn 
the language - 
survival, basically," she said.
	Students interested in working abroad 
can also take 
part in a work-abroad program sponsored by 
the International 
Study Program and the Council on 
International Education 
Exchange.
	The CIEE is a not-for-profit private 
organization 
promoting student travel.
	Students interested in the International 
Study 
Program can get information at the Moeur 
Building, Room 
124.

I like ike Interactive information center opens in MU today

By Angela Mull
State Press
	If you need information about ASU, news 
or current 
music, all you have to do is stroll over to 
the Memorial Union 
and touch IKE. 
	IKE, an Interactive Kiosk Experience 
developed by 
Campus Interaction, is a 24-hour information 
center opening at 
10 a.m. today in the south corridor of the 
MU's main level. 
Located across from the elevators, IKE will 
operate daily and 
uses interactive touch screens to provide 
information about 
campus events, class schedules, national 
news, sports scores 
and music. A Warner music screen features 45-
second music 
videos with coupons for discounted or free 
CDs. 
	"Students nowadays are very 
technologically savvy 
and information access 24 hours a day is what 
it comes down 
to," said Michael Burnstine, a member of 
Campus Interaction's 
collegiate marketing division. 
	The kiosk has three sections. Each 
section has a 
monitor, a touch screen and a printer. The 
middle section 
provides campus information only, including a 
campus 
directory and telephone.
	IKE users can also apply on line for 
American 
Express cards and receive discount vouchers 
for Continental 
Airlines and Timberland boots. 
	Entertainment information will change 
periodically, 
Burnstine said.
	ASU is the sixth university to install 
the kiosk. By 
spring of 1996, 135 universities will have 
IKE units. Each 
kiosk and its hardware costs about $30,000, 
but sponsors cover 
the entire cost. Sponsors are national and 
local, although local 
sponsors have not been selected yet, said 
Randy Johnson, 
associate director of the MU. 
	He said the kiosk will put value and 
convenience into 
students' hands.
	"What we're looking at doing is bringing 
the campus 
into the modern day with technology," he 
said. 
	In addition, Johnson said IKE should 
decrease the 
burden on staff at the MU's information desk. 
	Information desk manager Kim Demarchi 
agreed.
	"It probably will take the weight off of 
routine 
inquiries that don't require personal 
attention and allow us to 
have time to give directions to people who 
are lost or look 
through the lost and found," she said. 
	Jim Bailey, a graduate history student, 
said the kiosk 
should benefit users.
	"As long as it's free, it's cool by me," 
he said. 
	But John Waslif, also a graduate history 
student, said 
the kiosk is an example of the decreasing 
amount of personal 
communication among people.
	"I'm against increasing the automated 
world," he said.

EDITORIAL/COLUMNS/LETTERS TO THE EDITOR

Editorial: Regroup for recall

	In the past, this newspaper's editorials 
and columns 
have constantly derided the Associated 
Students of ASU's 
continuous calls to "get involved."
	We are breaking with that tradition - at 
least for now.
	Without hesitation, we urge you now: Get 
involved 
with ASASU.
	Get involved for long enough to eject 
ASASU 
President Chris Weber from office.
	Many of Weber's supporters have stated 
quite 
adamantly that no action should be taken 
unless Weber is 
convicted of the crimes he has been charged 
with.
	But guilt or innocence is not the issue 
here. Proper 
judgment is.
	Getting arrested once after a fracas in 
a local bar was 
bad enough.
	But we are willing to grant that Weber 
is only human, 
and is bound to make mistakes - even mistakes 
of this 
magnitude. Putting oneself in a situation 
where one can be 
arrested shows bad judgment, but it was a 
mistake. The only 
unforgivable mistakes are the ones you 
repeat.
	Weber repeated his.
	The second arrest - for disorderly 
conduct - showed 
not only disastrously poor judgment, it also 
showed a blatant 
disregard for the rules of this University.
	When Weber picked up his second arrest, 
he 
demonstrated quite clearly that he had not 
learned anything 
from his first brush with the law.
	This incident clearly shows that Weber 
likely does 
not possess the level of judgment that is 
vital for a man in his 
position.
	A significant portion of the student 
body believes 
now that Weber does not deserve to keep his 
position as 
ASASU president. A majority of the senate 
agrees.
	ASASU, like any democratically-elected 
body, runs 
on the consent of the people. And it is 
obvious that many 
students do not consent to representation by 
Weber.
	The time has come for a confidence vote. 
The time 
has come to recall Chris Weber.
	The Weber affair has divided campus 
opinions 
deeply. About the only way this tension and 
divisiveness will 
be resolved is by bringing it to a vote of 
the students.
	Enough has happened over the past month 
to warrant 
giving students a chance to choose whether or 
not to allow the 
Weber administration to continue.
	If, in a recall election, the majority 
of students vote to 
retain Weber, so be it. It can truly be said, 
then, that Weber 
represents his constituency.
	But his constituents deserve to be asked 
if they want 
to keep him in office or not.
	A recall petition is currently 
circulating around 
campus. To force a recall, more than 2,100 
signatures are 
required. As of Tuesday, 940 signatures have 
been collected.
	If you are dissatisfied with Weber's 
performance, and 
just plain tired of ASASU's indifference to 
your concerns, we 
urge you to sign this petition.
	Beginning tomorrow, whenever space 
permits, this 
newspaper will post a running count of the 
number of 
signatures collected for recall. This 
statistic will demonstrate, 
more clearly than any editorial than we can 
write, that students 
are just plain pissed off.
	Get involved. Help bring this issue to a 
vote of the 
students.
	Let's end this damn thing, once and for 
all.

Column: Farrakhan's anti-Semitism threat to Jews

Delia Maldonado
Columnist
	In the last week many good things have 
been written 
about the Million Man March. In this paper 
you read about the 
positive message behind the march. 
	What you did not read about was the 
anguish felt by 
other minority groups that were not included 
in the Day of 
Atonement.
	Louis Farrakhan alienated several 
African-American 
groups who wanted to attend the march, 
including women and 
gay Black men. 
	He also aliented other minority groups 
that would 
have supported his rhetoric. One particular 
group that could 
have related to the discrimination faced by 
Blacks is the 
Jewish community.
	Blacks saw the march as an answer to a 
national 
crisis caused by an increasingly perilous 
racial divide that is 
being widened still by today's diversion from 
the economic 
and social policies of the last 50 years. 
	So did the Jews.
	The Jewish community supported the need 
for this 
rally. But they were opposed to the 
glorification of Farrakhan's 
intense anti-Semitism. Jewish leaders could 
not begin to 
fathom what motivated responsible Black 
ministers and 
leaders, like Jesse Jackson, to lend precious 
legitimacy to this 
man and his theology of hate. As far as they 
were concerned, 
Blacks and Jews had long been allies in the 
Civil Rights 
Movement.
	It is true that Farrakhan is almost 
alone among Black 
leaders in addressing those issues in 
uncompromising terms. 
He, alone, is telling the Black community 
what many feel it 
needs to hear. His message of cultural 
revolution, of 
responsibility to self and community is what 
inspired so many 
Black men who attended the march.
	Jewish groups say the rally confirms the 
concerns 
they have had all along - that the march and 
events 
surrounding it will create a dangerous 
environment that 
promotes the anti-Semitic views of Farrakhan 
and moves him 
toward mainstream acceptance.
	The rally "underscores the danger and 
concerns we 
have about aspects of the march, particularly 
as it relates to 
who's organizing it and who's behind it." 
said Jess Hordes, 
director of the Anti-Defamation League's 
Washington office.
	Everyone knows Farrakhan is a dangerous 
man - a 
man who advocates bigotry. It is not simply 
the media playing 
it up. He said what he said and he does not 
deny it. When 
asked about his views by television 
interviewers, most Black 
men at the March said his quotes were taken 
out of context. 
But his statements against Jews are 
inflamatory in any context. 
	Jews, he has said, are "bloodsuckers" 
who have 
become rich on the sweat and toil of Blacks; 
Judaism is a 
"gutter religion"; the Holocaust was nothing 
compared to the 
historical oppression of American Blacks. 
	In a speech back in March he said: 
"Little Jews died 
while big Jews made money. Little Jews were 
being turned 
into soap, while big Jews washed themselves 
in it." He also 
said a few years back that Hitler was 
"great," and though he 
said later he meant "wickedly great" the idea 
has taken hold 
that he had borrowed Hitler's stategy of 
using ethnic 
scapegoats to build up his own political 
power.
	Farrakhan may not have resorted to name-
calling on 
the particular day of the March (except 
against President 
Clinton) but the sentiment of anger and hate 
toward the Jewish 
community is very real and cannot be 
forgotten or 
downplayed.
	Farrakhan is filling a vacumm in the 
Black 
community with this march. He saw an 
opportunity and a need 
for Black leadership and organization. It's 
ironic that a man 
who helped to create that vacuum by speaking 
out against 
Whites and for segregation is all of the 
sudden changing his 
tune and being called a hero for it.
	Farrakhan's popularity is deeply 
disturbing to the 
Jewish community, and with good reason. But 
he will become 
far more dangerous if this plunge into urban 
anarchy and 
despair is allowed to continue.
	It is easy to compare Farrakhan to David 
Duke and 
Mark Furhman - but what you heard last week 
were more 
comparisons to Martin Luther King than either 
of these men.
	This is ludicrous. There are tremendous 
differences 
between the two men. Most important is King's 
belief in 
peaceful resistance and his desire to bring 
together all minority 
groups to support each other and work 
together toward racial 
harmony and equality.
	We should in no way dishonor the memory 
of Dr. 
King by comparing him to a bigot and a 
racist. It is important 
to emphasize the message of last week's 
March, but it is just as 
important to remember who Farrakhan is and 
what he stands 
for. We can not ignore this man or his role 
in The Million 
March. His work here has just begun.

Letters to the Editor

Letter: Truth still left to be told

	There are several things I would like to 
say in regards 
to the recall and impeachment process of 
Associated Students 
of ASU President Chris Weber.
	* I thought it was interesting that 
prior to the 
impeachment process, an unnamed senator was 
concerned 
about Greek loyalty. He was worried that they 
wouldn't do 
what is best for the students. I felt this 
statement and the article 
implied that: fraternity members should keep 
an open mind 
and do what's right; but it's OK if I have 
already decided prior 
to hearing the evidence that Chris Weber 
should be 
impeached.
	* In that same article it is noted that 
Weber decided 
not to resign because he was told by many 
students that they 
supported him. I am wondering why I haven't 
read anything in 
the State Press from these students. Are 
supporters not being 
sought out to hear the other side or are you 
suggesting they are 
non-existent?
	* Did Gresser and Bielfelt (leaders of 
the recall 
movement) attend the impeachment hearing? If 
not, how can 
they understand the reasons why some senators 
chose not to 
impeach Weber? In Tuesday's article there was 
some mention 
of the programs that Weber has started. I 
would like to hear 
about some of the positive things Weber has 
done.
	* Concerning his arrest, was Weber ever 
actually 
convicted of the assault charge?
	* I think it would be really sad if more 
people vote in 
Weber's recall than actually voted in the 
election.
	What I am trying to suggest is, as a 
student, I believe 
that I am lacking the necessary information 
to make an 
objective choice over whether Weber should be 
recalled. My 
wish is that students would please consider 
if they actually 
have all the facts of the arrests and ASASU 
bylaws to know if 
recalling Weber is warranted. Have you 
honestly looked at 
both sides of the coin? Have you attempted to 
look past what 
the State Press tells you? It may not be the 
complete truth.

Letter: No impeachment until proven guilty

	Chris Weber is innocent until proven 
guilty. If Weber 
is found guilty, then impeachment proceedings 
should be 
brought against him. Until then, he should 
remain in his 
elected office.

Freshman setter likely out for season with knee injury

By Dawn Wagner
State Press
	With two important losses haunting them 
from last 
weekend, the ASU volleyball team came home to 
find more 
bad news. The Sun Devils have probably lost 
their starting 
setter for the season.
	Freshman Jolynn Faatulu tore her 
anterior cruciate 
ligament two weeks ago in the first game 
against Southern 
Cal.
	Faatulu, who had been averaging almost 
13 assists 
per game, will be replaced by junior Tracy 
Heflin, who started 
last weekend against Washington and 
Washington State.
	Heflin averaged 11 assists in two games 
over the 
weekend but is averaging 5.4 assists per game 
this season. 
Heflin has also posted 129 digs this year.
	* Coach Patti Snyder-Park will be 
recognized Friday 
for breaking ASU's all-time winningest coach 
record during 
the Sun Devils' match against No. 4 Stanford. 
The game is at 7 
p.m. in the University Activity Center.
	* The Sun Devils, who are 12-5 (6-5 Pac-
10) overall, 
are ranked near the top of the Pac-10 in 
almost all of the 
possible individual statistics.
	Senior outside hitter Christine Garner 
leads the Sun 
Devils in kills and in service aces. She is 
also ranked second in 
the Pac-10 in kills average (4.60) and third 
in aces average 
(.37).  
	Senior middle blocker Holly Sones, an 
all-Pac-10 
candidate, is ranked fourth in aces average 
(.339) and hitting 
percentage (.317).
	Breaking into the Pac-10 rankings was 
sophomore all 
Pac-10 candidate Jenn Snyder, who was 10th 
last week for 
kills average (3.698).
	On the defensive end, two players are 
making the 
grade.
	Sophomore outside hitter Terri Cox is 
third in the 
Pac-10 in digs per game (3.613). She also 
leads the Sun Devils 
in digs and is third in kills average.
	Annette Monsen, a senior middle blocker 
from New 
Mexico State, is ranked seventh in the Pac-10 
in blocks-per-
game average (1.20).

Top-ranked golf team wins Alabama tourney Sun Devils come from behind on final day; junior Hanell uses 3rd-round 69 to take 2nd

By Lisa Eskey
State Press
	The top-ranked men's golf team won the 
Jerry Pate 
Intercollegiate tournament at the Shoal Creek 
Golf Course in 
Birmingham, Ala., Tuesday.
	The victory was the team's second of the 
season. The 
Sun Devils also triumphed in the Ping Preview 
in Cornelius, 
Ore., to open the season. 
	"It was good for us," Coach Randy Lein 
said. "We 
knew we had to win."
	The Sun Devils used combined rounds of 
299, 294 
and a 1-over-par, final-round score of 289 to 
give them a  
three-day total of 882,  five strokes ahead 
of the University of 
Nevada-Las Vegas, which finished second. 
 	Oklahoma State (888) finished third and 
UofA, which 
was in first place after two rounds, settled 
for fourth, one 
stroke behind the Cowboys.
	Individually, junior Chris Hanell placed 
second (73-
71-69-213), three strokes off North 
Carolina's Rod Bradley's 
pace. Hanell's final-round 69 was the low-
score for the day. 
Both men were the only players to finish the 
tournament with 
a combined score under par.
	Freshman Darren Angel finished tied for 
sixth place 
(74-72-75-221), marking his third top-10 
finish of the season.
	"He made some crucial putts for us down 
the stretch," 
Lein said of Angel.
	This weekend, all five team members 
played their 
rounds together, instead of with opposing 
team members. 
Under normal circumstances, threesomes from 
different teams 
play together.
	Lein said the different format was an 
advantage to the 
weaker teams because there is no intimidation 
factor from the 
higher-ranked players contributing to their 
play. One 
disadvantage for the Sun Devils was being 
unable to get 
updates on teamstandings.
	"It was different," Lein said. "We had 
no idea how 
the other teams were doing, but the team 
responded well. This 
win was a great confidence boost."
	Lein added that the team hasn't been 
playing to its 
potential and is still winning major 
tournaments.
	 "This just adds to the credibility to 
how good we 
really are," he said. 
	The Sun Devils will be in action again 
at the Golf 
World Invitational in Hilton Head, S.C., Nov. 
9-12.

Snyder says turnovers key for ASU to corral Ducks

By Dustin Krugel
State Press
	ASU's defense will need to take the ball 
away from 
Oregon's high-powered offense if the Sun 
Devils are going to 
win this Saturday, Head Coach Bruce Snyder 
said.
	"I think it's a key in this game and 
it's a key in every 
game," he said.
	The Sun Devil defense has had its 
problems forcing 
turnovers, with a total of nine in seven 
games, four of which 
came in ASU's last game against BYU. In 
comparison, 
Oregon's defense has forced 17 turnovers in 
seven games.
	"We had been in a drought taking the 
ball away," 
Snyder said. "The (win over) BYU directly was 
the result of 
taking the ball away."
	Snyder said the defense needs to force 
turnovers so 
the offense doesn't have to drive the length 
of the field to 
score.
	"It seems like every drive we've had 
this year has 
been for 70 or 80 yards except for this last 
game," he said. 
"That's hard on our offense."
	Taking the ball away from Oregon may be 
easier said 
than done, Snyder said.
	"Oregon doesn't turn the ball over very 
much," he 
said.
Players gaining respect for Oregon
	Snyder said his players remember last 
year's lopsided 
34-10 loss to the Ducks.
	"From what I've heard them say,  it's 
how physical 
Oregon is and how much respect they have for 
them."
	Snyder said his players last year might 
not have 
shown enough respect for the eventual Pac-10 
champion. 
	"I think we're going up there with a 
little bit of a 
different attitude and appreciation for how 
good they are," he 
said. "Nobody at that time believed they 
would go to the Rose 
Bowl."
The Recruiting Trail
	The recruiting trail heated up for the 
Sun Devils 
during their bye week. ASU sent each of its 
allotted seven 
coaches on recruiting trips.
	"We tried to divide it 50-50 between 
high schools and 
junior colleges," Snyder said.
	Snyder said he could be sending junior 
college 
scholarships out in the next couple of weeks.
	"It was really a good trip," he said. 
"We had a good 
response by the athletes and the high school 
and junior college 
coaches. I feel pretty good with how our 
recruiting is now."
Keeping a tight grip on the ball
	For the seventh straight game ASU didn't 
lose a 
fumble on a rushing play. The streak is now 
the longest in 
school history.
	"I'm pleased with the way we're taking 
control of the 
ball.  I'm really proud of the backs. That's 
really remarkable 
not to have any (fumbles) in the running 
game," Snyder said as 
he simultaneously knocked on wood for good 
luck.
	Senior running back Chris Hopkins 
fumbled on a 
pass reception against BYU, but that didn't 
halt the streak 
because it was on a passing play.
Ailing Poole
	Junior wide receiver Keith Poole has not 
recovered as 
quickly as was hoped from his left ankle 
sprain.
	"He's not even near what he was when he 
was 
healthy," Snyder said. "He's not running with 
nearly the same 
speed. That's a concern. He's kind of 
discouraged right now 
and down. He thought he would be well in 10 
days."
	Despite the injury, Snyder said Poole 
will travel to 
Oregon. 
	"He'll go and play, but he's not the 
same guy," he 
said. "He doesn't have the same balance and 
cuts he should be 
making now."
