f ter heart tranesplant
Gerald K. Rector; the world's third person to have had
wo heart transplant operations, died yesterday morning at
niversity Hospital.
Rector had received his third heart in an eight-and-a-
alf hour operation at the Hospital on Jan. 16. University
octors said he was in "very critical condition prior to the
peration as a result of his body's rejection of the first trans-
lanted heart, and kidney and liver .failure.
"If we had been able to find a donor 24 hours before we
id, in all likelihood we would have been able to save Mr.

Pass-fal
effect
(Continued from Page 1)
and with pass-fail it doesn't make
any difference..
Pass-fail grading seems to pose'
the greatest danger for students
who do only marginally well in
languages. LSA Assistant D e a n
George Anderson cited the exam-
ple of a student who failed to
graduate last month because he
received a D in German, was given
a fail and consequently did not'
have the required number of cre-
dits.
It is also unclear what impact
pass-fail grading has had on stu-
dents' study habits.
"I don't think it really makes
that much 'difference," claimed
one teaching . fellow. "Students
work hard if they want to learn."
While some students agreed,
others said the fact that one only
needed a C to pass resulted in les
studying. "It takes some of the
pressure off," added another.
Some confusion has also devel-
oped whether students who receive
a D should continue the language
sequence. Under traditional grad-
ing, a student with a D or above
can take the higher level courses.
Originally, the language depart-
ments believed those students with
a fail would not be allowed to ;o
on to the next course, said Prof.
Clarence Pott, chairman of t h e
Germanic Languages department.
But. the latest decision lets the
individual language department
determine whether students with
a fail can continue, according to
LSA Assistant Dean Dean Baker.
There is also some doubt as to
the effectiveness of the language
departments' policy of keeping se-
cret from teachers which students
are taking their courses pass-fail.
"In .the past there were no
qualms about giving a D," said one
instructor. "If the teacher knows
the student is on pass-fail he pro-
bably would give the student the
benefit of the doubt.
Rector. The general deteriora-
tion of his kidneys and liver
prior to the second transplant"
on Jan. 16 led to problems we
were not able to correct," they
said in a prepared statement.
"In addition to the kidney and
liver failures, Mr. Rector devel-
oped a chest infection which he
was not able to overcome. His
heart continued to beat well up
until the very end," they added.
Rector had been moved this last
weekend from the Hospital's car.-
diac recovery room into the clini-
cal research unit as he began to
improve after the Jan. 16 trans-
plant. However, he developed the
lung infection early Monday.
Rector, who was from the Kala-
mazoo area, had become Mich-
igan's third heart transplant re-
cipient last March 17, after a
seven-hour operation at the Hos-
pital.
At that time,. University doctors
said "it was the hardest one we've
done," because of the difference
in size between the diseased heart}
and the donor heart. That opera-
tion took about two hours longer
than Michigan's two previous
heart transplants, both done at
University Hospital.

WHEREAS : The University has stated
that "the proposed Observatory exten-

Defeated: That SGC demands that
President Fleming only consider to be
valid candidates for the vice-presidency
those chosen by the Search Committee;
and: That SGS suggests that if Presi-
dent Fleming feels he is unable to make
a decision to the Regents by their
February meeting that he find some
more expedient agency to handle that'
responsibility.
Approved: WHEREAS: The Regents in
their recent redraft of Bylaws 7.03 to
7.09 have indicated that they do not
feel that student should have author-
.ity over their own personal conduct,
or major responsibility for setting pol-
icy in the University office established
specifically to serve them, or any pol-
icy making influence in academic af-
fairs; WHEREAS: There is no demo-
cratic decision-making mechanism by
which the student body can overrule
this arbitrary and irresponsible attack
on them; WHEREAS: The only choices
for action left open are submission to
the "good will" f authority or resist-
ance in ways utside the normal chan-
nels of decision-making; WHEREAS:
Submission to authority will only sup-
press conflict to the disadvantage of
students, and not resolve it; RESOLV-
ED: 1) SGC holds the Board of Re-
gents responsible for any use of extra-
ordinary means in reversing their de-
cision; 2) SGC urges all students and
groups who wish to exercise and self-
determination over their lives in the
University to attend the next Regents'
meeting and indicate in a peaceful but
unmistakable way their demand that
the Regents pass a set of bylaws which
protect students' rights; 3) If the Re-
gents persist in ignoring the legitimate
complaints of students, SGC urges that
the student body make known its will
in a way that cannot be ignored, by
making it impossible for the Regents
to meet in public; 4) If the Regents
succeed in passing bylaws, which dele-
gate authority over student conduct
to anyone but students as a whole or
their elected representatives, SGC com-
mits itself to organize a campaign or
deliberate and systematice non-com-
pliance with all regulations under that
illegitimate delegation of authority, in-
cluding but not limited to the continu-

Bush said he withdrew the
charges because he was unsure
how effective they could be at this
time.
"The other complainants and I
decided it was pretty futile since
SGC probably couldn't punish
Fleming anyway," he said.
"It would be a good idea to get
everyone in the University under
the student courts, but with peo-
ple getting offed and students
going to jail there are more im-
portant things to do than playing
with the student courts" Bush
concluded.

'U' struck by second
electrical blackout
(Continued from Page 1)
the University Hospital carries the
University power facilities and was
not affected by the blackout.
Many students, it seems, used
the half hour loss as an excuse
to skip class.. "When I woke up at
what I thought was 8:30 and found
out it was really 9, I figured I
couldn't possibly make my 9
o'clock class, anyway," comment-
ed one freshman woman. "So I
just went back to sleep.'
"I really enjoyed the other
blackouts, too," she added. "It
gave me a chance to use my
candles."
However, the power blackout did
cause, a few problems, at least for
one student, who was on his way
to a trial for the LSA sit-in. "I'd
left my room at what I thought
was 8:10, 20 minutes before my
trial," he explained. "But when I
passed the clock at the bank, it
said 8:40, and I really panicked.
I got to my trial late, but the
Judge had slept late, anyway."
