Is It Correct? That’s Debatable By LOURDES FERNANDEZ News Writer Is the Moral Majority correct? It all depends on who's answering the question That question and others were debated Thursday night by Birch Bayh, former liberal Indiana senator, and Howard Phillips, president of the Conservative Caucus. The debate was held in the UM School of Law; the moderator was Professor Dennis Lynch of prelaw studies Bayh lost his Senate seat in 1980 after being declared an unsuitable candidate by the Moral Majority. The debaters discussed various topics, some of which have been covered below. mother Miami Hurricane/STtJ BAYER As part of in-service shack bites the dust: P,n9 exercises, Coral Cables firemen Saturday rrned down the 35-year-old Temporary Building one of the "temporary" frame buildings that are | uolly being eliminated. Last year, firemen dt I 'shed three of the wooden buildings. Six of the 1 0c/(s" still stand — sort of. * Whether involvement of religious groups in politics violates separa tion of church and state: "The Moral Majority is a lobbying organization,” said Phillips. “Members of it are politically involved, just like member of liberal organizations are politically involved. "Unfortunately," he continued, "our freedom of belief is being endangered, just like in the Soviet Union. States are seeking to control activities of religious organizations. "It’s important to know that the Moral Majority is not a religious organization. It includes people of different faiths or of no particular faith, but who share the same view-on political policies." Commented Bayh on Phillips’ last statement: "I don’t care how they’re organized. I spend enough time just dodging those Christian tightning bolts. "The Moral Majority," Bayh said, "takes a narrowly defined view of the scriptures and thinks that if others don’t see things their way they won’t go to Heaven, much less the Senate.” Phillips interjected; “Some people think it’s the same thing." Continued Bayh, "I don’t want it to be ’us’ and ’them.’ I want ’we.’ America has done well so far with ’we.’ I think that there is room enough for everybody in our tent.” Bayh then said he was a born-again Christian and proceeded to quote from the Bible, Matthew 6:5-7 “ ‘And when ye pray, ye shall not be like the hypocrites; for they love to stand at prayer in the synagogues. Enter thy chamber and shut thy door and pray.’ ” That, said Bayh, was the kind of relationship he had with God Prayer in the schools: “A country where religious beliefs depend on five minutes of prayer in the school is in deep trouble,” said Bayh. “The right to pray is so personal it belongs to individual students. I’ve sinned and asked for forgiveness; who knows — I may even sin again.” The problem, according to Phillips, is that the federal government is getting too much control of the material taught in schools. “The real answer is to encourage decentralization of schools,"Phillips said. “We must free more and more of America from the monopoly of the schools.” Abortion: Phillips: "The question is — what do we value more highly? The mother’s right or the sanctity of a child’s life? I believe in the child’s right to live." Bayh countered that it should be the mother’s choice. "I can’t think of a greater imposition than to have a predominantly male Congress take away that right," he said. “I respect the Right-to-Life group," he added. “I just think they're wrong." Affirmative Action “The work ethic is important,” Bayh said. “You can’t tell a person standing in an unemployment line that he’s lazy. When the govern- I ment won’t let him into the system to get a job. "We’re trying to make opportunities available to everybody according to capability, not just sex or race.” Phillips objected to a mandatory affirmative action policy, since, he said, it would "discriminate against people of appearance, and people will receive special treatment because they are of a certain race.” Increased spending/arms control Bayh stated that the United States is still ahead of the U.S.S.R. in the arms race; Phillips countered that Russia has passed the U.S. "Arms control is a threat to See page 2/MORAL? By JEAN CLAUDE de la FRANCE Head News Writer While the VOICE party was celebrating its 8-for-13 sweep of last week’s USBG Senate elections, student leaders were warning that campus student organizations will have to tighten their belts come next spring. The Student Activity Fee Allocations Fee Committee (SAFAC) had gotten USBG approval to place a referendum on the ballot asking the students if they would support a $10 hike in the fee to support the various student organizations. The students didn't support SA-FAC's proposal — not enough, anyway. The proposal was voted down 379 to 354. According to SAFAC chairman Andrew Furgatch, the possible ramifications are all negative. Furgatch said the referendum was put up to the students for the following reasons. • The Student Activity Fee has been $53.10 for the past three years, while the number of student organizations which recieve subsidies from the fee has increased tremendously. • Student enrollment has dropped, consequently reducing the actual number of dollars budgeted for SAFAC. • At the same time, inflation has taken its toll on the value of each dollar collected from the students. After reviewing SAF'AC’s budget last year, the outgoing members of the committee voted unanimously to pass a recommendation to have the fee increased. The matter reached then UM President Henry King Stanford, who issued a memorandum urging SAFAC to ask the students their permission to increase the fee. SAFAC Advisor Joe Pineda said he believes that the referendum failed due to a forced lack of time to inform students of the need for the money. “I am very proud of SAF’AC and the Undergraduate Student Body Government Senate for working diligently to put the matter on the ballot," Pineda said. The process, he said, was forcibly lengthy, and though SAF'AC members tried to beat the deadline for the spring elections, Pineda said, no one really had the time to campaign and petition the voters. This fall, SAFAC had the option of waiting until next spring's presidential elections next spring, thus giving members more time go out and explain to the students at large the need for the increase Pineda cited two main reasons SAFAC decided not to put the referendum on hold. • An almost certain tuition hike will probably turn off voters from people asking for more money. • The need for the money is immediate. Even if the referendum were to pass in the fall elections, it would have been too late to help the student organizations who will petition SAFAC for money in the spring. Furthermore, Pineda said, such issues as fee increases tend to be overshadowed by the elections of a new USBG president and other officers. Furgatch said he believes that the referendum was voted down partly because of ignorance on the part of the voters and partly because the people who would have benefited from the increase failed to go out and actively inform the students The SAFAC money allocation works in this manner: Each undergraduate student pays $53.10 to help support student organizations such as USCG, WVUM. The Miami Hurricane, UBS, the sky clubs and any other organization recognized by the University. SAFAC then budgets a predetermined number of dollars per student toward each organization or club, based on the organization's expected operating budget and the number of students it serves. A special account contains emergency funds for which organizations may petition SAFAC, provided they can show actual need. An example is the $1,400 allocated to Panhellenic for rush last summer. Furgatch warned that organizations receiving less than three cents per student may face across-the-board cuts which would force them to hold more fund raising activities to support themselves. Pineda warned that when student organizations which have received their predetermined allocations come to SAFAC for emergency funding, they may not find any Senior Defensive Back David Jefferson walks in triumph after the Hurricanes held off a late rally by Florida State to win 27-19 over the Sem-inoles Saturday in Tallahassee.

Miami Hurricane /RON NIE RAMOS Mahoney/Pearson Fights nine By TEQUESTA BRYANT News Writer The Mahoney/Pearson Complex last week began an intensive Crime Watch by providing residents with tips on personal safety and protection of property, choosing floor representatives, and posting flyers and notices on vandalism, theft and crime in general According to Complex Director Beth Levine, the crime rate is higher in the Mahoney/Pearson Com- plex than anywhere else on campus, mainly because of the complex's suite arrangement. This made a “Crime Watch Week" necessary to make complex residents aware of the high crime and of the actions they could take to begin erasing that crime. Monday, there was a demonstration of unarmed self defense at the 730 Cafeteria at 5 p.m., followed by a showing of the film How To Say No To A Rapist. Later that evening, in the Great Lounge, Terri Samuels Hurricane Positions Open Applications are available to students who wish to run for editor-in-chief or business manager of The Hurricane for the spring semester.

Each winner receive a full-tuition scholarship and a $350 stipend for the spring semester of Open Door replayed the film; that showing was followed by a discussion. Tuesday, details were given about the Mahoney/Pearson Dam-age/Theft Contest. This contest, to run through November, is to see which floor can keep its damage and theft record the lowest. The winner will receive money to hold a floor party. Also on Tuesday, Levine discussed crime on campus. Wednesday, Curtis Ivy, director of Campus Law Enforcement, gave a general discussion on basic considerations of personal safety. Thursday and Friday were Operation Identification Days, when residents could register personal possessions with a nationwide computer criminal informations system.
