URBANA, Ill. (AP) — University of
Illinois students, shaken by a series of
rapes, are taking steps to protect them
selves and to fight the sexism many
blame for the attacks, student leaders and
school officials say.
The attacks around the campus
stopped when police identified a suspect,
but students are labeling sexism a factor
— a message underscored with a candle
light march and rally Wednesday night.
Detective Gerald Schweighart said
Thursday.He was identified just before
the series of rapes stopped — around
Sept. 10.
Police are awaiting results of tests on
the suspect’s blood and have made no ar
rest, Schweighart said.
“The message at the rally was that
sexism is in our society and it is the
cause of a lot of things that go wrong —
rape, discrimination and women feeling
low self-esteem,’’ Jane Brouwer, presi
dent of the Panhellenic Council, said
Thursday.
The council represents about 3,500 so
rority members on the 35,000-student
Investigators believe about nine rapes
have been committed by the same man
since spring, Schweighart said.
The rally Wednesday united groups as
diverse as the Panhellenic Council, the
campus chapter of the NAACP and a po
litical coalition. United Progressives.
“We’re not asking for pity . . . we’re
demanding respect ... for the strength it
takes to go through this experience.”
Keller said. “The vast majority of
women are raped by friends, relatives,
and people who live in their dormito
ries.’’
Petitions were circulated urging pay
equity at the university, more education
on the problems of sexism, and more
emphasis on ensuring campus safety.
Participants also condemned campus
traditions such as panty raids.

The aim was to stress the role of sex

About 500 students demonstrated
Wednesday, carrying candles to draw at
tention to the role of sexism in the series
of assaults that police attribute to a serial
rapist.

and women for each other,” Brouwer
said.“If we are serious, we can make a

U.S. offers relief
for Sudan famine
WASHINGTON (AP) — The Sudan
has agreed to let the United States pro
vide relief to its famine-ravaged southern
region, and food and medical supplies
began moving Thursday to thousands of
sick and starving people, the State De
partment said.
But there were no assurances that re
bels fighting a guerrilla war with the
government would allow the assistance
to get through. They have attacked civil
ian planes and truck convoys, and inter
fered with the International Red Cross in
its effort to work out relief schemes,
spokesman Charles E. Redman said.
lations between our people and the peo
ple of the United States.”
The Sudanese government, which has
fought an intermittent war with Chris
tians and Animists in the south who op
posed the imposition of Islamic law, had
resisted delivery of food supplies into re
bel areas.
Lately, however, the rebel Sudanese
People’s Liberation Army, commanded
by U.S.-educated Col. John Garang, has
fired on relief planes and convoys, mak
ing assistance difficult. The rebels are
backed by the Marxist government in
Ethiopia.
The airlift was begun after Sudanese
Prime Minister Sadek el-Mahdi met in
Khartoum with U.S. Ambassador G.
Norman Anderson and Walter Bollinger,
an official of the U.S. Agency for Inter
national Development.
The agreement breaks a deadlock be
tween the government and foreign aid
donors.
The relief plan was drawn up by a
team from the State Department’s Office
of Foreign Disaster Assistance, the Suda
nese government and other donors, in
cluding private groups, according to a
cable from the U.S. ambassador in Khar-
Redman said “there can never be any
assurance” the rebels would hold their
fire and let the aid reach the hungry and
homeless. He called the rebels “a se
rious obstacle to getting relief to war vic
tims in the South. ”
The United States has good relations
with Sudan, which received $100 million
in American aid last year. In Africa, only
Egypt gets more U.S. economic assis
tance .

“We show children at all levels

them that peer pressure can work the

ciated F’ress.
A total of 90 tons of food will be
flown into Abyei, where an estimated
25,000 refugees have gathered and more
are expected as the rainy season ends.
The plan also calls for 1,500 metric tons
of food to be trucked from Kadugli to A1
Muglad and Babanusa to the West for
the assistance of displaced Sudanese
from the South.
To date, the United States has contrib
uted $26 million to famine and flood re
lief in Sudan.
Aid officials here were unable to say
how much more the stepped-up effort
would cost.
WASHINGTON (AP) — The House
took a landmark step Thursday when it
voted to funnel millions of dollars in
grants to colonias — impoverished com
munities lining the U.S.-Mexico border
— that frequently lack even running wa
ter.
The cable quoted the Sudanese prime
minister as saying;
“I have followed the work of the team
which is helping us deal with some of
our problems. We appreciate that good
work and feel it enhances the friendly re-
“This is the first time in its history
that the U.S. House of Representatives
has passed any legislation to specifically
assist the colonias,” said the bill’s spon
sor, Rep. Ron Coleman, an El Paso
Democrat.
The measure was the first to pass the
House out of a package of proposed im
provements for the border region, which
the Reagan adminstration has now gone
on record to oppose.
Coleman’s U.S.-Mexico Border Re
gional Commission legislation, how
ever, has bipartisan support in the
House, including the backing of Speaker
Jim Wright, and has a powerful friend in
the Senate — Lloyd Bentsen, D-Texas.
The proposed commission would de
velop plans to provide grants and loans
for a broad range of economic devel
opment facilities and projects along the
border.
The Reagan administration, however,
contends that six major Cabinet agencies
are already working to encourage eco
nomic development on the border and
that any worthy proposals for projects in
the border region can be amply funded
through existing programs.
The administration said another bu
reaucracy would be created and it “could
complicate and duplicate these ongoing
efforts, and would create pressure for the
establishment of additional bureaucra
cies to promote the development of other
distressed regions.”
Coleman said he’s not surprised by the
administration’s position.
“It’s the same old stuff they give you
anytime someone comes up with a way
the bureaucracy can deal with prob
lems,” Coleman said.
