Yeltsin takes
fight to people
MOSCOW ? President Boris
Yeltsin on Saturday declared
emergency rule until he can conduct
a referendum on April 25 to
learn whetiter the Russian people
truct him
Yeltsin announced the decree
in a nationally televised speech
in which he accused the
Congress of People's Deputies of
trying to reiinpose Communist
Party rule.
The Congress, Russia's highest
legislative body, is dominated by
Communists elected before the
fail of the Soviet Union and has
blocked many of Yeltsin's
attempts at economic reform. In
addition, the tension between the
Congress and Yeltsin has raised
fears of a return to dictatorship.
Yeltsin's move came a week
after the Congress thwarted his
efforts to hold a referendum on
how power should be divided
between the executive and legislative
branches.
The referendum, he said,
would a?;k' rhe Ruccian npnnlp
whether they trusted him and
Vice President Alexander
Rutskoi, and also seek their
approval of a new constitution
and a law to elect a legislature to
renlace the Communist-dominat
ed Congress.

She believes a majority of students
have been educated through
the perspective of the "white man"
and studying minorities dramatically
alters the way we see and think
about men.
"Traditional curriculum has
made gender, race, class and sexuality
invisible. We see ourselves
and each other through the eyes of
a fairly small group of people."
"We can analyze men's roles in
history, and men can see themselves,

WASHINGTON ? The Reagan
administration knew more about
some of the human rights abuses
in El Salvador's civil war than it
publicly disclosed, declassifieu
cables and interviews with former
government officials indicate.
The release of a report last
week documented widespread

U.S.-backed Salvadoran military.
It also revealed that the Reagan
administration, and to a lesser
extent those of Carter and Bush,
may have covered up evidence
and lied to Congress to secure
approval of about $6 billion in
aid to El Salvador.
Plans are underway in
Congress to investigate the testimony
of dozens of U.S. officials
during the past decade to determine
whether they misled lawmakers
about what they knew in
their zeal to save Central
America from Soviet influence.
For example, declassified State
Department documents show that

CHARLESTON ? The
Charleston Naval Shipyard
reportedly received a much better
evaluation after an inspection last
week dian did the naval shipyard
in Portsmouth, N.H., after its
similar review in September.

and Courier outlined 14 serious
violations at the Portsmouth
Naval Shipyard, including delays
in the disposal of nuclear waste
and radioactive water.
The report describes an inspection
conducted at Portsmouth
Sept. 14-18 by Adm. Bruce
DeMars, head of the Navy's
nuclear propulsion program and a
team of evaluators from
Washington, D.C. A similar team
headed by Demars evaluated the
Charleston Naval Shipyard
March 8-11 and reportedly left a
draft report that discovered only
four serious violations. That
report is unavailable.
The shipyards at Charleston
and Portsmouth had been
rumored to be on the list for the
next round of base closings.
However, Charleston's facilities
are scheduled to close, while
Portsmouth avoided the axe.

[ Mortar Boar
By MATT HANLEY
Staff Writer
USC's chapter of the Mortar
Board, a national honor society for
seniors, inducted 40 members
Sunday at Rutledge Chapel.
South Carolina Honors College
Dean William Mould praised the
new members for their achievement,
then warned them not to look
down on outsiders.
"We have every reason to feel
exalted. Membership is recognition
of achievement, like passing the
bar or having a seat on Wall
Sueet," Mould, an honorary member,
said.
Mould said one con of membership
is a tendency to develop an
"old-boy network" and to become
satisfied and exclusive. "Now that
you have been included, do not
exclude," he said.
Mould's speech was followed by
a history of the Mortar Board by
Vice President Angie Hewitt, who
uaced the society from a regional
fraternity for woman to a national
organization that has included
males since 1975.
Hewitt said past members
include former U.S. President
Jimmy Carter and Supreme Court
Justice Sandra Day O'Connor.
Reading the preamble of the
Mortar Board's constitution,
President Kim Lovelace listed the
society's goals as "self-awareness
of members, equal opportunity,
raising the status of women, scholarship,
leadership and service."
As dictated by a national conference,
the Mortar Board's main goal
at the moment is to increase literacy.
