Placement Service GENERAL DIVISION 3200 S.A.B. ANNOUNCEMENTS: } Law students' work at a legal aid clinic could become more than an extracurricular activity, a Uni- versity experiment suggests. If properly done, many unique educational benefits may be foundt in a course that offers academic credit for work at a legal clinic,1 reports Prof. James J. White who. conducted such an experimental course last summer. t However, he adds, the experi- ment would require further evalu-' ation by "observers more objective than I." Although some 100 law students work at the Washtenaw County Legal Aid Clinic each semester, their work is under the supervision of staff attorneys and is com- pletely voluntary. In the experimental course, however, students worked under Prof. White's direction and for academic credit. Ten students, chosen randomly from 25 appli- cants, put in a combined total of 1,73 hours of work on behalf of, 97 clients. White,who has long been active in the local clinic's work, notes that "clinical law, and especially clinical law practiced on behalf of the poor, promises to be the darling not only of our students but also of the foundations and the federal government. And the latter two will doubtless entice all of us into a mindless and unbe- coming scramble to spend their money." But, he cautions, "it will take more careful planning and more thoughtful analysis than anyone has yet offered to insure that suchf money is spent in an efficient' and effective way." White says that in his course students learned "very little sub- stantive law." Although individual students learned a great deal from intensive research on specific cases, "I am not sure that the clinic setting is an efficient one for teaching substantice legal prin- ciples." Nor, White adds, was there much evidence that the clinical experi- ence taught students "social awareness" Some people argue that 'the skin-flinted conservative car be made into a compassionate lib- eral by an eight-week or ten-week exposure to legal aid practice," he says. "I saw nothing in my stu-. dents nor have I seen anything in our volunteer students of past' years which supports that thesis."' "It is my impression that the' quality of legal work is quite un- related to the student's political philosophy, and that exposure to legal aid clients is just as likely to i einforce a student's negative views of the poor as it is to alter those views," White says.- New coffeehouse opens in Union M1'UG (Continued from Page 1) week, and the crowd was still larger the next week, the man- agers say. Student patrons especially seem to like the informal atmosphere at the coffeehouse. Performers donate their time and talent, and Ludner, claims they are just as enthusiastic as the patrons. The coffeehouse tries to have at least two acts arranged for each Friday evening. Performers from the audience are welcome to come up to the stage between regularly scheduled sets. "The way to keep this thing going, is to keep it relatively un- structured," says Ludner. UAC will secure any equipmentI a performer needs. All talent is welcome, although the bulk so far HEW bill veto may cut' U' research, ed funds (Continued from Page 1) would be felt in research and spe- :ialized training pr'ograms for graduate students. HEW is the largest sponsor of these programs, he explained. Meanwhile, one section of the bill touched the sensitive area of sanctions for participants in dis- ruptions at universities. The provision would have cut off federal loans or grants to stu- Ribjcoff talks (Continued from Page 3) his own admission - and the ma- jor point of his prepared speech -- that there has been a failure of leadership in the country, a fail- ure to lead an attack on the prob- lems that face the nation. *Nixon was one main target. In a press conference before speak- ing at Hill Auditorium, Ribicoff said the President's apparently " successful courting of the "silent majority" was a hollow political victory. "The silent majority agrees with President Nixon and that helps politically, but that does not solve any problems," he said. "Educa- tion, health, pollution are n o t eliminated as problems by Nix- on's speeches.. Picking up on a major theme- Democrats have used since Nix- on's State of the Union message, Ribicoff complained that "specif-' ics are lacking. There are no plans to solve the problems." Ribicoff managed to be biparti- san in his attack. "The DemocratsI have not shown much leadership either," he s a i d. "It is lacking from both parties." Asked about the prospects of leadership in the '70s, Rubicoff s a i d he saw Nixon and Agnew continuing to lead the GOP, while many Democratic senators - Mc- Govern, Muskie, Hughes, Nelson and Phil Hart - appeared to be contenders for leadership. -ents, faculty members, or univer- sity employes convicted of taking part in university disruptions in which there was force, the threat of force or seizure of property. It is expected that this section would be included in a redrafted appropriations bill. University President Robben Ileming said last night that the University is currently discussing with 'attorneys the implications. f the proposed' law on students sonvicted of creating a contention in the sit-in at the LSA Bldg. last September. Among the programs thatbwould be affected by an HEW budget cut is the education school's ur- ban education program. Instituted last July 1, the program receives all of its operating funds-$500,000 -from the federal government, according to Dean Wilbur Cohen of the education school. Cohen, who served as Secretary of Health, Education and Welfare under the Johnson administration, said last night he has contacted ten members of Congress and urged them to override the Presi- dent's veto. Cohen criticized Nixon for turn- ing the HEW dispute into "an issue of financial integrity." "If he was so concerned about financial integrity, why did he recommend so much money for the ABM?" he asked. In addition to the urban educa- tion program, federal funding of the University's public health re- search and training programs re- mains uncertain. Dean Myron Wegman of the public health school expressed concern last night that a reduc- tion of the HEWV budget may im- pose restrictions on both the pres- ent and future operation of the school, which is currently receiv- ing $640,000 from the department. Even if Congress overrides the veto, Wegman explained, the Pres- ident's attitude indicates a prob- able cutback in the HEW budget request for the next fiscal year. Nixon's budget requests for the 1971 fiscal year, which starts June 30, are expected to be submitted to Congress shortly. have been folk singers, Miss Kelley adds. The coffeehouse offered five- cent Cokes this past weekend and Szpiech hopes it can serve sand- wiches in the near future. Cur- rently open from 9 p.m. to 2 a.m. on Friday nights, the coffeehouse may open on Saturday nights starting this week if its sponsors can get Union permission, he adds. iMiss Kelley and Szpiech say they may try to expand hours into the weekuights, and Ludner adds that the Union bowling alleys and bil- liard area may stay open longer to supplement the coffeehouse. In the spirit of last year's report on the Union by Douglas Osterheld of the University of Wisconsin, the Union now houses the Student Credit Union and the Student dis- count store. The Osterheld report recom- mended reordering and redirect- ing the Union's facilities to serve the needs of students to avoid greater financial losses. Pending the report of the Union Space Allocation Committee, the Union may also take on student organizations offices and use the' current MUG for the new student' bookstore. asks talks. a s on TF sudy Senate Assembly's Academic Af- fairs Committee yesterday request- ed Graduate Assembly to send a group of teaching fellows to dis- cuss with it the propriety of the committee's proposed investiga- tion into the employment condi- tions of University teaching fel- lows. The propriety of the committee's investigation has been brought in- to question by the announcement last Thursday that petitions would be filed this week with the State Employment Relations Commis- sion for the establishment of a teaching fellows union. Prof. Theodore Buttrey, com- mittee co-chairman, said that un- der state 'labor law, such an in- vestigation while a union is filing for recognition might be illegal. Students in groups of five or, six strolledacross campus, view- ing the extent of the failure and joking about the possible meaning of it all. "This is it, the revolution is here," said one participant buoy-c antly. One group attempted to rally students on the Diag in aI mass protest over the blackout. "This is repression," shouted one3 girl with an army jacket a n d braids. "No, this is fun," countered someone nearby. But the protest organizers wereE not easily put off. "Rally on the Diag," they shouted. "We demand' an administration answer to all this. The lights were turned off forj a reason." A passerby stopped to point out that President Robben Fleming was also affected -candles were seen in the windows of his South University Ave. home. The organ- . isers quickly turned to other tac- tics, pelting the intruder with a: barrage of icy cnowballs. "To North Hall," cried one, and off they went. Once there, however, they found they had company. Uniformed officers were standing in the windows on three sides, watching for possible inci- dents of "trashing." Women at Betsy Barbour and Helen Newberry residences dug, out candles for emergency light-j ing. "This is fun, this is a r e a l panic," said one woman guard-I ing the door. "Lots of the girls are upstairs telling ghost stories." In East Quad, students found other diversions. "East Quad was blacked out, so we all lit up" quip- ped one student. And in Helen Newberry lounge, a student sat in front of a useless picture tube with a very useful girlfriend snuggled up to him, hop- ing the blackout would last for- ever. Prof. Charles V.
