tions taken by Locke took on add-
ed significance yesterday amid
speculation that he was the front-
runner for the post.
At a meeting between Senate
Assembly's S t u d e n t Relations
Committee and Fleming yesterday,
history Prof. Arthur Mendel, an
SRC member, said Locke "seemed
close to the top as I sensed the
vibrations" at recent meetings on
the appointment.
At that meeting, SRC members
discussed the candidates with
Fleming, relating to him informa-
tion they themselves had gattiered
and attempting to evaluate, in an
informal manner, how the can-
didates would relate to students
and other members of the admin-
istration.
Much of this discussion cen-
tered on speculation that Locke
would assume a middle position
between students and the admin-
istration if he were appointed vice
president.
Prior to the meeting, SRC
chairman architecture Prof. Jos-
eph Wehrer said it would be open,
Part way through the meeting,
however, Fleming raised objections
to the presence of two reporters
from The Daily.
After a 10-minute discussion,
the meeting was closed, and the
reporters were asked to leave.
Student Government Council Pres-
ident Marty McLaughlin, an SRC
member, left the meeting with the
reporters in protest against clos-
ing the meeting.
Locke said last night he felt
his discussion with Wilson had
been frank, honest, and open. "Mr.
Wilson showed a sincere concern
for clarifying my position," he
said.
Locke attributed the confusion
to his lack of familiarity with the
issues and the praseology in Ann
Arbor. "The problem as I see it
at this point is that I was simply1
unaware of the nature of the pro-
posed policy committee."
