■ The Force Five Convenience Store, the Bookstore and the Law School snack bar are the latest victims of counterfeit bills at the University of Miami.
By LOUIS FLORES
Assistant News Editor
More counterfeit money was found to have been accepted at the Force Five convenience store, the Bookstore and the snack bar at the UM School of Law, thus increasing the number of victims, which also include the Cashier’s Office, the Rathskeller and two UM students.
According to Charles Canfield, director of Bookstores, the Bookstore did receive * "unterfeit money.
“About three weeks ago, we got a counterfeit $20 [bill]” Canfield said. “We caught it here before it went to the bank.”
Canfield said the Bookstore is equipped to detect counterfeit bills.
‘Here in the store, we’ve always used die electric detector,” Canfield said. “It has to make a sound and a light appears if it is good.”
Canfield also said the Bookstore staff is now aware of the possibility of more counterfeit money infiltrating their scanning system.
“Our people were alerted as soon as we heard about it,” Canfield said. “Our policy
was to check $50’s and $ 100’s. Now, we’ve told our cashiers to check any bill that looks funny.”
According to Julio Arailana, general manager for the convenience store and the various snack bars on campus for Daka, cashiers at the store are now using special markers to detect if money tendered for payment is counterfeit or valid.
“On Thursday, I took action by going to Office Depot and buying counterfeit bill detectors” Arailana said. “If your mark it and it turns amber, it means it’s good. If it turns brown or black, it’s suspect to being counterfeit.”
Barnett Bank notified Daka in its monthly bank statement, Arailana said, that some of the cash it had deposited was counterfeit.
“At last count, I believe it was seven [counterfeit $20 bills we received],” Arailana said.
The snack bars located at the Law School and the Ibis, now operating on the UC Rock, have also accepted counterfeit bills, Arailana said.
Meanwhile, at the on-campus Pizza Hut, Kevin Ferroli, general manager, said the pizzeria has not been the recipient of counterfeit money.
“Fortunately, we have not found anything [in our registers],” said Ferroli.
Cashiers at Pizza Hut are using counterfeit detector pens, Ferroli said, to catch the imitation currency before it is accepted.
Stan Klein, a partner in Mark-Ruben, Inc., a Miami rare coins, precious metals and foreign exchange firm, said the strict uniformity of currency design makes US currency simple to copy.
“US money is the easiest to counterfeit,” Klein said. “Most counterfeit bills that I’ve seen in Miami are photocopies.”
According to Klein, counterfeiters sometimes are able to circumvent popular coun-
terfeit detector pens by bleaching lower denomination bills and then photocopy higher denomination bills on the authentic paper.
“I have seen bleached $1 bills printed
into $100 bills,” Klein said.
If the pen is then used on the counterfeit bill, Klein said, the bill may then be accepted due to the markers’ results.
“It’s not a very good test,” Klein said.

Macintosh computer stolen from Gusman
By SARA FREDERICK
Assistant News Editor
On March 21, a Macintosh CPU and a Digidesign interface valued at $5,500 used in recording music were stolen from a recording studio in Gusman Concert Hall, according to an incident report from UM Department of Public Safety.
In tbe report filed by Sgt. Abraham Fernandez, Erinn Thorp, a maintenance engineer work study at Gusman, came into the studio at 6:45 p.m.to work on the Macintosh when he discovered it was missing.
No signs of forced entry
The incident report said that here were no signs of forced entry into Room 300, where the property was located. Thorp added that there was nothing else taken and the room was otherwise undisturbed.
“It appears they were looking for it [the CPU and interface],” Thorp said.
Thorp, a senior at UM, said that he believes that the equipment was not stolen by someone on the Gusman staff.
“We believe it’s a music student of some sort,” Thorp said.
Thorp also said that after he realized the
computer and interface were gone, he called John Monforte, director of Recording Services, and Clyde Hagler, a professor in the School of Music and called the police.
According to the police report, Hagler was tire last person to use the computer and interface before Thorp arrived.
Thorp said that he is one of two students who has a key to the studio. Some School of Music professors also have keys to the recording studios, he said.
40-50 people with access
Between 40-50 people have access to the studio on a regular basis, but they must sign a log sheet to obtain a key, Monforte said.
“We have to have a very fine balancing act,” Monforte said. “Students have to have easy and efficient access to the equipment, but we have to make sure everything stays there.”
Students who use the studio must take a test on policy procedures, such as locking the door, as well as technical tests on the equipment, Thorp said. Students majoring in music engineering and media writing and production are eligible to use the studio.
According to Monforte, an investigation is still underway, and recovery of the stolen property is expected.
“What's somewhat amazing, is that over the years, there have been very few thefts where we haven't recovered the items," Monforte said.
UM donor Eaton dies at 83
His donation helped fund Eaton building
By SARA FREDERICK and LOUIS FLORES
Of the Staff
James Wyman Eaton, a local banker and watercolor artist whose donation to the University funded Eaton Residential College and an athletic scholarship, died Friday of cancer at the age of 83.
The Miami Herald reported Sunday that Eaton donated 300 acres of land that is now Gables-by-lhe-Sea to the University in 1953 to pay tribute to his father, Julian S. Eaton, who had served on the UM Board of Trustees. At the time, it was the second-largest donation the University had ever received.
According to President Edward T. Foote II, the proceeds from the sale of that property were used by the University to build Eaton Residential College and to fund Lhe Julian S. Eaton Foundation.
“He was a very generous man from a very generous family," Foote said. “The [Eaton] family was active in and supportive of the University during its growth.”
Foote was appreciative of Eaton's involvement in 1JM.
“The Eaton family's activities is symbolic of the community’s support this University has enjoyed.,” Foote said.
Eaton taught commercial art and illustrating at UM for 10 years.
According to Eugene Massin, a professor of art and art history at UM from 1956 -1985, Eaton taught classes part time during the time that Massin was at QM.
"He seemed to be well-liked with everyone,” Massin said.
The Miami Herald also reported that Eaton was a founder of the Miami Watercolor Society, and that his paintings are in private collections in the United States and Europe.
A funeral mass was held yesterday at Hie Epiphany Church in South Miami. Eaton's family has requested that in lieu of flowers, donations be made to the School of Epiphany at the Church.
Monsignor Jude O’Doherty said that Eaton had been involved with the Epiphany Church for several years.
“He was a faith-filled man. He and his wife came to church every week,” O’Doherty said.
