A date for the election of of ficers has not been established. The Executive brought forth two requests for the IFC. The first focused a conference to be held in Coeur d'Alene, Idaho, sponsored by the Northwest Coalition against Malicious Harrassmnnt The coalition formed recently to eliminate the white supremist power base in Nor thern Idaho and the Northwest, according to ASUO Finance Coordinator Mike Sauerwein. The $1,13ti request covers ex penses for two ASUO represen tatives and seven ASUO pro gram representatives The conference will provide a “real opportunity to learn about minority issues" and raise awareness about racist and anti Semitic attitudes that still prevail even though many peo ple see the Northwest as free of those sentiments. Sauerwein said. The committee approved the allocation 3-0-2 with ).B. Leahy and Sandra Thompson abstaining. The second request was for the purchase and installation of four infant-care referral bulletin boards. The boards would give students a place to go to find in fant child care and would be placed at the Child Care and IJevelopment Center. Amazon Child Care, Westmoreland Child tlare and the EMU. I-eahv and Thompson ex pressed their opposition to the request. Leahy suggested keep ing names and numbers for reference on index cards at the child care center desks, while Thompson supported only pur chasing one board for place ment in the EMU. "It's not that I'm against hav ing a board in each location," but it seems sensible to just in stall one to monitor its use and effectiveness, she said. Member Steve Hoyt said that each child care location had its own unique needs and problems. Thompson moved to allocate $142 for one board, but the mo tion was defeated 2-3 with Baldwin, Hoyt and Kristin Teigen voting against. Teigen made a second motion for the full amount requested, and that was approved in a 3-2 vote. Anonymous tip line helps catch crooks By Fiona Chan Emerald Contributor People who have information vital to Springfield police in vestigations and yet are not willing to be personally involv ed can find the perfect avenue through the "Anonymous Tip Line' at 726-3773. Clapt. jerry Smith of the Spr ingfield Police Department en courages the public to use the tip line more frequently if they have information that they think would help the police solve crimes "Police are not magicians and they need information to focus their efforts at particular people and locations." Smith said. "If the police have no information, they can't function in criminal investigations so the tip line is one source that the\ may be able to use." The line is a 24-hour non emergency lire for people with information about unsolved crimes, suspicious activities and situations that merit investigation “This is an avenue that they can provide the police a direc tion to focus attention and ef forts.” Smith said "It is a valuable tool that the Spr ingfield police certainly have no plans of getting rid of,” he added. Tip-line callers will hear a taped message and then lie given time to leave their infor mation on an answering machine. Callers are not re quired to identify themselves or leave a contact. Police officers check out the answering machines every mor ning for new tips that came in the day before Police, however, do not investigate every tip comes in due to either lack of resources, vague messages or commonly known information. Smith said. “The number of calls that comes in through the tip line depends on what goes on in the community." Smith said "It ranges from a couple of calls a night to nothing for several days.” The tip line receives an estimated 10 to 15 calls a week although the police may receive a host of calls after the media released a suspect's description in a homicide case, Smith said. According to Smith, the anonymous caller program has helped police clear several cases — "probably mure than they can attribute to the line.” Smith said he would like to see the tip line used inure fre quently because he believes there are people out there who tend to let the information pass, thinking the police already know what they have to offer Although the tip line is a generic program used throughout the United States and police departments throughout the country have benefited from it, the Spr ingfield tip line was started by the community.
