purr By ROBERT KRAFTOWITZ Finding it hard to classify himself a "builder of universities," Stephen Spurr prefers to accept the lesser role of "foreman." With expansion and development of the University's Flint and Dearborn campuses high on the Regents' pri- ority list, the new' vice president and dean of graduate studies has been *ven the blueprints for the task, with instructions to "catalyze" their im- plementation. A member of the University's faculty for 20 years, Spurr expresses reserva- tions about becoming an administra- tor. "I think that any faculty man who takes on a vice presidency sees that there are two considerations which will determine whether or not it was a good move," he says. Ca talyzing Flint, Dearborn "On the pro side, it provides a bet- ter platform from which to argue. On the con side, there is a potential loss of credibility," Spurr adds. "You be- come part of the mystical group called the administration which is instinc- tively looked upon by many faculty and students as being in an adversary rather than in a supportive role." At Dearborn, Spurr's role is to over- see the transition of the upper-divis- ional campus to a viable four-year program, a job which the vice presi- dent says will take at least five years to complete. At Flint, Spurr is coordinating the expansion which will be required to accommodate the increasing enroll- ment now projected for the next ten years. Meanwhile, Spurr remains dean of the graduate school, a position he has held since 1964. He has also taken over some offices formerly under the direction of other vice presidents, in- cluding admissions, financial aids, reg- istration, and records. Although he says he is "over- whelmed" by the extent of his assign- ment, Spurr admits to being accus- tomed to dealing with such tasks. "I'm not doing anything substan- tially different than I have been since 1961," he says. That year, Spurr, who was dean of the natural resources school, was named an assistant to Roger Heyns, then vice president for academic af- fairs. Under Heyns, and later under the current vice president, Allan Smith, Spurr handled special assign- ments in the areas of development and admissions. Not coincidentally, these are his major responsibilities as vice president. Early last year, President Robben Fleming and Vice President Smith ap- proached Spurr and discussed the possibility of his taking on a more formal role in these areas. Meanwhile, in late spring, two spec- ial committees submitted to the Rs- gents reports calling for expansion and development of Flint and Dear- born. By November, regental approval had been given to the major recom- mendations of the reports, and Spurr was appointed vice president with a mandate to carry them out. The Dearborn campus was estab- lished as a senior division college in 1956 on a grant from the Ford Motor Company. One of the few juniors-and- seniors-only schools in the country, Dearborn was intended to serve as an upper-divisional college to Henry Ford Community College. Therein lay its main problem, how- ever. As Spurr notes, "There are not enough students who want to go through that particular program." And with a critically low rate of en- rollment growth, the campus has been unable to secure the funds to upgrade its academic prorgams, hire more fac- ulty, and establish viable programs above the undergraduate level. The problem facing the Flint cam- pus is quite opposite. "We're close to the saturation point at Flint, and de- mands for enrollment are increasing," Spurr says.

I s, professors in deadlck TF appropriations dispute Trial in Chicago closng Final statements given; Hoffman to charge jury By JENNY STILLER Special To The Daily CHICAGO - "The hang- man's rope never solves a sin- gle problem," Chicago 7 De- fense Atty. William Kunstler told the jury as he urged them in his final argument to "make the right decision" and acquit the seven activists accused of inciting riots at the 1 9 6 8 Democratic Convention. Kunstler's summation was fol- lobed by that of U. S. Atty. Thomas Foran, who called the de- fendants "evil men" who "cor- rupt innocent kids for their ow purposes." Judge Julius Hoffman will in- struct the jury this morning' by 9:30. Deliberations are expected to be lengthy. Kunstler told the jury, "We're living in extremely troubled times," but warned them that the "enormous problems" of the Viet- nam war, racism, poverty and the generation gap "don't go away by destroying their critics." He told the jury that "we are in a moment of history in which the courtroom becomes a prov- ing ground of whether we will live free and die free," and added that the outcome rested with them. In particular, he emphasized the defendents' association w i t h such acknowledged heroes as Martin Luther King' and Robert Kennedy. Foran, in his summation, argued that such men would never have supported the "evil schemes" of the defendants. When he mentioned King, de- fendant David Dellenger's 16-year- old daughter Tasha said quietly, "You're wrong, Mr. Foran. He did support them." Then she stood up and began the leave the courtroom. When a marshall laid his hand on her arm, Tasha shrugged it off and stalked out proudly unescorted. Dellinger stood and said, "That's my daughter, and I thank her." Michelle Dellinger, 13, raised her hand in a fist and shouted "Right on!" As she was expelled from the courtroom her father said "and that's my other daugh- ter."

The graduate students, for the past three weeks have cited two key issues as crucial to the dis- pute, namely, that the reduction in fellowships will not be adequately compensated for and that the ori- ginal decision was made without the knowledge or consent of most of the departments nearly 200, graduate students. The money needed to hire four new assistant professors will come from three sources. $18,000 taken from the teaching fellowship bud- get will be added to a $20,000 fund originally designated for last year's abortive attempt to recruit one additional professor. Most of the $20,000 is presently being used to support four senior graduate stu- -dents as lecturers. In addition $8,000 has been promised by Rackham, bringing the fund for recruiting faculty to a required total of $46,000.. In compensation for the loss of $18,000 in fellowships, the depart- ment will receive a promised $9,000 increase in the department's Rackham block grant fellowship fund. This amount, according to P r o f e s s o r Samuel Eldersveld, chairman of the department, was originally thought of as support for incoming graduate students. Its use by the present students, he said, "can be discussed." The contention centers largely over the question of whether or not some graduate students would find themselves without the finan- cial support they had expected to 'receive next year. While the faculty has promised teedof' by AA parking By BOB SCHREINER "Switch" parking may soon be switched-off in Ann Arbor. If City Councilmen Nicho- las Kazarinoff (D-Third Ward) and John Kirscht (D-First Ward) get their way, motorists parking on residential streets will no longer be forced to play automotive hop-scotch six days a week. "Switch" parking refers to the method utilized by the city in which designated sides of streets are alternately available and unavailable for parking. For example, one one side of South Forest St. a sign reads streets are 8 a.m.-8 p.m. and 2 a.m.-5 am. Some persons must move their cars twice as much as others, depending on which schedule their street is on. The councilmen's proposal - to be introduced at a Coun- cile meeting Tuesday - points to a number of discrepancies in the present system. Residential streets are swept once weekly, they say, but the switch laws are in effect six days of the week. If bad weather prevents sweeping, the area to have been covered misses its turn. Also, at present, only o n e Parking MWF 2-5 AM" (other side) to "No Parking Mondays 2-6 AM" (both sides). The proposal also criticizes current snow removal tech- niques and encourages the de- velopment of an ordinance to re- solve the problem.

A city ordinance is not re- quired to modify the switch parking regulations. All that is needed is an administrative or- f
