Final passage came on an 82-0 roll call vote moments after the Senate rejected a bid to reduce federal penalties for persons convicted on a second or subsequent charge of pos- sessing marijuana. Earlier attempts to place more stress on the scientific and medical aspects of drug addiction were beaten back by supporters of the police-oriented bill. The Senate defeated, on a 58-24 roll call vote, an amend- ment which would have cut in half the severity cf prison sen- tences for second .and subse- ----------- quent convictions for posses- 1 sion and distribution of mari- j uana. 4 As part of this drug control package, the Senate passed Tues- me day a cantroversia "no knock"-' illa U dayaeotsovutorizes fedec agents to break. into a home with-'; - U I compromise.

It rejected, on a 56-32 roll call vote, a bid to allow the secretary of health, education and welfare, not the attorney general, to have the prime role in naming mem- bers of a new marijuana research commission. And the Senate also turned back, 44-39, an attempt to give HEW scientists a stronger voice in determining which drugs should be classified as dangerous under schedules which outline control procedures and penalties for use and distribution. The amendments were framed by Sen. Harold E. Hughes (D- Iowa), who in two days of speeches has insisted that HEW should be given the major responsibility and authority for conducting drug-re- lated research and weighing the scientific and medical problems of drug abuse. Senators Thomas J. Dodd (D- Conn) and Roman Hruska (R- Neb), both members of the Judi- ciary Committee which wrote the 100-page .control .bill, contended that the bill gives both HEW and the Justice Department a voice in drug abuse control. Dodd contended that both law enforcement and medical science are adequately balanced by the bill and that placing all authority in one or the other would 'pre- clude objectivity and result in one- sided findings." The administration-backed bill already contains penalties for cer- tain drug abuses less severe than existing law. For the first time it would allow a judge the option of placing first and second offenders on proba- tion. Some Senate observers say this marks a realization that drugs are infiltrating middle class neighborhoods and suburbs where they are used by normally law abiding persons. But it sharply differentiates be- tween these relatively casual users' and the criminals who profit from the drug traffic. For these of- fenders prison sentences would be long, fines high, and probation' denied. "Generally it is a mild drug," Hughes said. "To equate its risk to either the individual or society to hard drugs has no basis at all." Dodd said the potency of the substance varies widely. By SUSAN LINDEN Approximately 200 students have occupied the administration build- ing at the University of Detroit since 11 a.m. Tuesday, to protest" what they call the university's violation of "the student's right to peaceful protest." No action has yet been taken to remove the students. But at a press conference yesterday, uni- versity President Father Malcolm Carron said, "This type of peace- ful protest is no longer accept- able." The statement followed a ear- lier one by Carron offering to ne- gotiate if the protesters would demonstrate only outside campus buildings as a sign of gQod faith. It is expected that police will be called in early today to remove the 200, after the campus closes down for the night. Yesterday's sit-in was staged to protest an incident that occurred last Thursday. On that day, 17 students sat-in at 11 a.m. in the administration building to protest the presence of a Navy recruiter on campus. At noon, a college official closed the building and threatened to have the students arrested on trespassing charges. When the students did not leave, the police were called in and arrested them. The main contention of the stu- dents who have rallied to support the 17 is over the legality of Car- ron's actions. According to Bill Pace, steering committee member of a concerned students organization, there is a section in the university's bylaws which states that in matters of civil disturbance, the administra- tion must consult with their stu- dent government and the advisory board of deans before taking any action. The students believe Carron violated their rights in having the students arrested, Pace said. Carron last night was unavail- able for comment. The concerned students have presented the administration with a list of seven demands including one that all criminal charges be withdrawn against the students arrested last Thursday.

For the last few months, Weiser has been conferring with his ten- ants privately. Weiser cited three apartments of tenants who have left the strike due to out-of-court settlements. These settlements resulted in rent reductions for the tenants through " the time they suffered their certain inconvenience, such as faulty heating or appliances.

Speaking to College Republi- cans he began with several "commendations" for the Dem- ocratic administration and then moved on to the "things I don't agree with." He reminded the--25 people present that the Democrats now control the council, hold- ing eight of the 11 votes. "It's been a frustrating year to the three Republicans on council." However, he claimed, people from outside, now involved in Model Cities, have not listened to the ward's representative. "The power center has shifted," he said. "It's not as representa- tive as perhaps it was back in the mid '60's." "In my opinion, morale in City Hall has never been low- er," added Balzhiser. He cited several departmental resigna- tions as evidence of this. He went on to say that "fi- nancial matters in the city are bleak." He accused the adminis- tration of "moving and shifting funds too early, expecting it was said, "especially college cities." Besides commenting on what has happened during the Harris administration, Balzhiser listed a "good many things that have. been shoved aside." He said he does not think the planning department is plan- t.ing long enough range services for a city that is growing "at a fantastic rate." The administra- ion has neglected parking prob- lems around the University as well. In addition Balzhiser accused the administration of trying to 'rush through a pollution or- dinance to deceive the public for me itlra..rn zne "
