Page 2 • The BATTALION Monday - November27, House Majority Whip Tom DeLay aims to raise funds, support for county Republican □ Tonight's discussion on the budget crisis is offered at a reduced rate to A&M students. By Heather Pace The Battalion It happens when your advertise in The Battalion Call 845-2696 Students can gain first-hand knowledge of the recent federal budget crisis from House Majority Whip Tom DeLay tonight. The event, a GOP fund-raiser for the up coming elections, begins at 6:30 p.m. Keith Kouba, DeLay’s campaign man ager, said the representative wants to garner support for county-level Republi can candidates. Republicans will be fund raising for four offices that have been targeted for the 1996 election: sheriff, tax-assessor and collector, district judge and district attorney. “He is coming down primarily to support the county’s primary efforts,” Kouba said, “especially as the county is increasingly Republican because the elections cost a lot to run.” Kouba said DeLay often helps with simi lar fund-raising efforts. “He likes to come down as much as he can to support the GOP effort,” he said, “not only in his district but statewide.” DeLay’s visit to College Station shows his endorsement of A&M’s conservative campus and the strong College Republi cans organization, Kouba said. David Brown, College Republicans presi dent and a junior political science major, said DeLay’s visit is completely separate from his organization. “It really doesn’t have anything to do with us,” Brown said. “Most of us can’t even afford it anyway.” Rodger Lewis, Republican Party of Bra zos County chairman, said DeLay’s high- profile position in Congress has enabled him to take an important part in the plan ning of the federal budget. “The exciting thing is that Tom has been at the heart of the battle that has been going on in Washington,” Lewiss: “He has two key roles — he is on the propriations Committee, which will it the budget bill, and is the majority« which gives him the responsibility mustering votes.” Kouba said the temporary stop funding measure that will last thro Dec. 15 has given DeL^ay the timetoct to College Station before the battle the budget is renewed. “Even though an agreement has just t made, it is just short-term,” he said. are going to enter into an intensive del Lewis said DeLay will provide an in esting insight into current politics. “It should be interesting because doesn’t mince words,” he said. “Itisimy tant that at such a crucial time wege first hand report from him.” Dinner tickets are $25 for non-stude and $10 for A&M students. Tickets available at Republican Headquarters,loi ed on 907-A Harvey Road and additional formation is available by calling 764-4765 Health Tips Beutel official suggests keeping body fit for final By Holly Rippa A.P. Beutel Health Center Some students experience a great deal of stress due to the demands of finals. These guide lines can keep students on track while studying during hectic schedules. First, pulling “all-nighters” is used by many students as a method of studying. Consuming endless amounts of caffeine and accumulating sleep deprivation is a good description of pulling an “all-nighter,” which is not a good method for studying for fi nal exams. Over-consumption of caffeine may cause central nervous sys tem malfunctions which include nervousness, insomnia, irritabili ty, anxiety, headaches and mus cle twitching. In addition to this, your body needs some rest so you can do your best during exams. Another health guideline to keep in mind is snacking. While you may find yourself poring over your books, be careful about what you are pouring into your body at the same time. Choose snack foods that are lower in fat and sugar, which will benefit you more in the long run. Foods such as chips, nachos, ice cream and pizza may leave you feeling tired af ter consumption, especially if you eat too much. Healthier snack choices that will give you more energy include bagels, graham crackers, low-fat pop corn, pretzels, raw vegetables and low fat dip, fresh fruit, yo gurt and sugar-free pudding. A last health technique that will help you survive finals is to relieve stress. Take a break from studying and try one of these therapeutic ways to relieve stress: take a walk, call your parents, hug someone you love, loi iveir take a long hot bubble bath,g a quick massage, watch ale cartoons, do a crossword puzzl take a quick nap, go fora ride or make a daily “to do’ and check it off as you amj plish each task. Overall, keep these heall guidelines in mind duringy finals and you will be onyoi way to a 4.0 semester grai-r) point ratio.

Police question rabbis about Rabin assassination A inn □ The extremists are suspected of telling Amir he would be justified in killing the prime minister because his policies led to terror attacks against Israelis. JERUSALEM (AP) — Police interrogated two rabbis suspected of giving an assassin religious sanction to kill Prime Minister Yitzhak Rabin as a threat to the Israeli people, police sources said Sunday. The rabbis allegedly reassured confessed gunman Yigal Amir Ihat he would be justified in killing Rabin as a “rodef” — or perse- putor — on the grounds that Rabin’s peacemaking with Palestini ans put Israeli lives in danger, said the police sources, who spoke pn condition of anonymity. Under Jewish religious law, a “rodef” may be killed to prevent Jiim from causing the deaths of his victims. Suspicion against the rabbis reflects the tension between Is rael’s secular majority and the extreme nationalist religious groups, which peaked in Rabin’s Nov. 4 assassination after a Tel Aviv peace rally. Amir and the other suspects under arrest for alleged involve ment in the killing all are religious Jews who oppose the govern ment’s peace efforts with the Palestinians. Rabbi Yehuda Amital, a moderate religious leader who was appointed by Rabin’s successor, Shimon Peres, to the Cabinet last week to make amends with religious Israelis, told army ra dio that rabbis who had advocated violence against Rabin should be prosecuted. “If they carried out incitement and encouragement of rebellion, they must be brought to justice, no doubt,” Amital said of the two rabbis under interrogation. Amital, who heads a Jewish seminary in the West Bank, said that he taught one of the rabbis, Shmuel Dvir from the Karmei mpu ’si; Wh Kune Tsur settlement, and remembered him as markedly extremistii^ f e his views. _ b ;en j Dvir and another rabbi, identified by Israel Radio asDavij^g „ Kav, arrived at police headquarters in Petah Tikva near Telf\v r.r.mP, after being summoned. |g ‘7t’ c Kav taught at the Kerem seminary in the Israeli tomoi Yavneh, where Amir also studied several years ago, the armyra dio said. Joh Ioust< The two are currently being investigated on suspicion ofk 36 citement to murder. “My Police sources said interrogators also suspect they knewoL 0llt plan to shoot Rabin. Dror Adani, a friend of Amir who also has been arrested ini: assassination, has said that Amir asked him to get rabbinicalf mission for the killing several months before the slaying was lik The son str Jam Adani’s attorney said that the rabbi approached by At G. Roll “I hi Ags be Edd or, sa taassiv “The But Sine agreed that Rabin was a “rodef,” but did not give his blessing kill Rabin for fear it might lead to civil war. The rabbi was not publicly identified. Also in Petah Tikva, a magistrate prolonged by six days thed tention of Margalit Har-Shefi, a friend of Amir. Har-Shefi is being held on suspicion that she knew abouttfe planned assassination — which her lawyer and family denj Channel 2 TV said Har-Shefi, 20, called Amir’s house on the nigl 1 of the killing to ask if “the mission had been accomplished.” . In another development, senior Tel Aviv police official Yaatof * Shoval was to testify Sunday before a state-appointed commissio: J men: about allegations that police failed to keep civilians out of td area around Rabin’s car and that detectives assigned to guardth' prime minister were missing on the night of the murder, securif sources said A Shin Bet officer in charge of monitoring subversive group was to testify about intelligence work in advance of the assassins tion, including a tip to the agency from a reserve officer who tol authorities about the plot but did not supply Amir’s name.
