Deliberation
Day Events
By STUART GANNES
Student Government Council
last night reorganized the March
20 "Day of Deliberation," reject-
ing the 'student boycott of classes
which was approved last week.
"Neither students nor faculty
should be forced to attend classes
Wednesday," the SGC statement
explains. "The intention of the
Day of Deliberation is to achieve
a break in the routine of everyday
events. The momentousness of the
question before us demands such
a break and makes a defense of
this routine for its own sake ludi-
crous.
" in no way do these events pro-
test the loss of student deferments
for graduate students," the state-
$ ment continues.
Graduate Assembly passed a
s i m i 1 a r resolution Wednesday
night.
The new plan for the Day of
Deliberation calls for activities 'to
begin March 18 with a mass
meeting to plan the following
Wednesday's activities.
A draft teach-in will begin on
Tuesday, March 19, YalebUniver-
sity's chaplain, the Rev. William
Sloane Coffin, will deliver the
keynote address. Workshops and
discussions on the draft will con-
tinue throughout the evening.
SGC member Sam Sherman, '68,
said the purpose of the resolution
was "to restate our firm support
of the draft teach-in activities and
to clarify misconceptions about:
the motivations behind the Day
of Deliberation."
The SGC resolution says "The
purpose is also to give individualsc
a day in which to consider theirt
personal moral plight and alter-
native courses of action."i
S Cmember Tom Westerdale,b
Grad, explained the SGC action
was not a reversal of its actionf
last week. "All the important is-t
sues have been merely clarified
and the important parts of ther
program remain unchanged," heb
said.c
"The presence of the Rev. Wil- l
iam Sloane Coffin as keynote
speaker will help avert any possi- Iu
ble misunderstanding as to the:
purpose of the teach-in and DayV
of Deliberation," he concluded.
SGC member Gayle Rubin, '70,
criticized Vice-President Allan F.
Smith for what she said is "blatant
hypocrisy."
"He finds it inadvisable to can-
cel classes for the Day of Deliber-
ation in the interests of education-
al continuity, but has urged the
faculty and graduate teaching staff
to cancel class and attend Presi-
dent Fleming's inauguration," she
concluded.

Low Budget
May Cause
Tuition Hike
Fleming Discusses
Possibility of Raise
If State Cuts Funds
By STEVE NISSEN
University President Robben
Fleming said yesterday that the
"University may have no alterna-
tive but to raise tuition" next year.
Rates for Michigan residents as
well as out-of-state students may
have to be increased, he said.
Unless the legislature restores
the cuts made previously in Gov.
Romney's higher education appro-
priation request, the tuition hike'
will be necessary to provide ade-
quate funds to meet the Univer-
sity's minimum needs, Fleming ex-'
plained.
The Senate appropriations com-
mittee last week trimmed $3.4 mil-
lion from Romney's recommenda-
tions, but suggested that a $3481
hike in out-of-state tuition could
compensate for the cut.
The Senate passed the bill two
days later and sent it on to the
House where the possibility of re-
storing part of the $3.4 million cut
is being considered.
However, a report by the state
auditor general has charged the
University with "overstatement of
expenditures and an understate-
ment of available cash."
The report is expected to hurt
the University's chances of per-"

Law Abuses
By DANIEL ZWERDLING
City councilman Robert Weeks,
(D-Third Ward) called yesterday
for an "investigation of alleged
irregularities" in the construction
and renting last year of Charter
Realty's student apartment com-
""plex, Albert Terrace.
(In a related development, SGC
voted last night to file suit in the
Sform of a' mandamus action
against city building officials. A
writ of mandamus, if issued by the
court, would force the Department
of Building and Safety Engineer-
: 2 ing to take action correcting viola-
tions at Albert Terrace.)
Weeks submitted a statement
to Mayor Wendell E. Hulcher and
the City Council requesting that
City Attorney Peter Forsythe com-
pile a complete report answering
questions in eight major areas of
concern in the Albert Terrace
case.
Weeks referred to the article
in Tuesday's Daily charging that
prominent realtor John Stege-
man, owner of Charter Realty,
repeatedly violated city building
codes in the construction of Al-
bert Terrace, located at 1700
Geddes. The Daily also claimed
the Ann Arbor Department of
Building and Safety Engineering
did not press charges against
Stegeman as specified by city law.

"I trust that the attorney as our

Forsythe said yesterday he will

CORRECTION
The Daily reported yesterday
that Graduate Assembly has
withdrawn support from the
March 19 Day of Deliberation.

other Day of Deliberation activ-
ities, including a teach-in.

The welfare board also an-
nounced it has recommended to the
board of supervisors a real estate

to look for alternative sites.
Ypsilanti Site
In addition, the welfare boarc
announced it has asked the boarc
of supervisors to begin a study of
the possibility of setting up a wel-

the board will not wait for the
. Ypsilanti study to be completec
before they make their decision or

fice.
The welfare board promised tc
furnish transportation for welfare
recipients to the new site if it is
adopted. It agreed. to allow FPF
and other organizations to attend
its future meetings.
Mrs. Shirley Haywood, a repre-
sentative for Aid to Dependent

claimed the proposed relocation "is
too far out of our reach. Most of
us have no transportation and
most of us have no money for

Beginning this spring a team of
scientists from the western prairie
states will begin an integrated re-
search program on grasslands in
northeastern Colorado.
This project is part of the 17
month old Program on Analysis
of Ecosystems, directed by Prof.:
Frederick Smith, chairman of the
natural resources school's depart-
ment of wildlife and fisheries.
The study is part of the United
States' contribution to the Inter-
national Biological Program.
John Kadelec, associate prof.
of wildlife management is as-
sisting Smith as coordinator of
the study. Results of the program
will be processed in part by the
University's computers.
Dual Objectives
The program has two main ob-
jectives, Smith explains, "to im-
prove man's ability to manage
renewable natural resources; and
to establish a scientific base for
programs to improve environmen-
tal quality."
The program is designed to es-
tablish a total of six experimen-
tal environments - coniferous,
deciduous and tropical forests,
and desert and arctic tundra -
in different regions of the United
States and tropics. Funds for the
projects will come primarily from

After initial study plots are
designated in a 15,000 acre grass-
