By Johanna Munoz
StajfWriter
In an effort to contribute to the community
through fund-raising events. Delta Sigma Pi will
sponsor and hold their annual silent auction
tonight.
The fraternity plans to donate 60 percent of the
proceeds to Valley Children's Hospital. The event Is
open to the public.
Delta Sigma Pi. the country's largest business
fraternity, will hold the auction In the Valley
Business Center's foyer from 7 to 9 p.m. The bids
will then be collected and the items will be given to
the highest bidder.
Those attending will be able to walk around the
merchandise set up on tables so as to decide what
they want to bid on. Wine and cheese will also be
served.
"Our initial plan was to raise funds for
ourselves." said EVan Llm, president of Delta Sigma
Pi. "But fraternity officers decided Instead to turn it
into acommunfly event."
He added that no profit will be made by the
fraternity and that any money they do make will go
to the costs of putting on the event.
The fraternity's adviser feels it is an event that
will help give fraternities a better image and at the
same time help members with business skills.
"There is a niisconception that there Is not
enough professinallsm in fraternities," said
Tbmasz Wielicki, a professor and adviser to the
fraternity. This is the kind of event that will help
rebuildthereputation offratemitiestngeneral."
It will also help students understand their role
and function in the community," he said.
Wielicki added that the fraternity would be doing
-all the work.
"As a business fraternity this will be helpful to
them in the sense that it constitutes exercise in
their organizational skills," Wielicki said.

Abortion issue comes to campus
Following Missouri decision, volatile issue heats up across nation
College Press Service
Much like their off-campus
counterparts, pro- and anti-abortion
students have tried to turn up the
political heat in recent' weeks, staging
rallies, debates and marches to try to
sway legislators
Than)**, to a summer U.S. Supreme
Court decision, state legislators now
have the power to restrict abortions.
As a result, many of this Call's
legislative and gubernatorial
campaigns for the November
elections have crane to focus on
candidates' abortion views.
Students at the universities of
Kansas, North Dakota. Vermont,
Pennsylvania and Maryland, among
others, have stepped up their efforts to
Influence those campaigns.
Collegians at Purdue and Harvard
universities, as well as at Loyola
University of New Orleans, also have
held teach-ins. set up campus booths
and organized lobbying efforts.
The National Organization for
Women (NOW), moreover, hopes to
draw thousands of students to
Washington for a pro-choice march in
November.
1 think both sides have been
rejuvenated by the {Supreme Court)
decision." said Sharon Ftaser of
American Collegians for Life's
Princeton University chanter.
At the groups
headquarters at Grove City College in
Pennsylvania, student Mike Coulter
agreed The [Jury) decision has
spurred us on more." he said.
By a 5-4 vote, the Supreme Court on
Jury 3 upheld a Missouri law that
limited bow public money, facilities
and employees could be used to
perform abortion procedures. *
Pro-life and pro-choice students
predicted that this fall Congress and
many states would try to adopt laws
like Missouri's. The National
Abortion Rights Action League
(NARAL) predicts at least 24 states
will try.
States could, for example, stop
campus health clinics from making
abortion referrals, even If
want them. Campuses could also be
barred from mentioning abortion as
an option when counseling college
women.
The prospect has prodded students
to start lobbying for and against such���plans.
The first results came in mid-
October. ' The U.S. House of
Representatives, reversing eight years
of anti-abortion votes, approved a bill
to allow federal Medicaid money to be
used to fund abortions for poor
women who have become pregnant
through incest or rape.
