ites of spi By DEBRA THAL People, people, everywhere and sunshine, lollipops, ice cream, Lt. Staudenmaier and the brown-green-grass welcomed back spring yesterday. As the temperature reached 73 degrees, impromptu picnics, football games, and sunbathing became, as one sun worshipper put it, the "only thing you can do in weather like this. After all finals are more than a week away." In the Arb, the White Panthers Youth International Party sponsored a "Yippie Be-in" where several hundred people con- gregated throughout the sunny afternoon. As the season's first kites flew overhead, guitars, harmon- icas, and dogs accompanied the walks along the river and games people played. Half a dozen frisbees flew through the air as both dogs and humans played the game. A purple frisbee became a special target of canine participation as two-and four-legged sun worshippers cheered on the Dogs while the Humans vainly attempted to secure the frisbee. A radical game of Capture the Flag was organized by the day's "revolutionary vanguard," and after a futile struggle both sides lost when each captured each other's flag. A ball mysteriously appeared and a soccer game began. But it was interrupted when eight bandits liberated the ball for a rugby tournament. That's the way the day was-a little bit of this, a little bit of that-all in the fun-sun. ring in Ann Arbor -Daily-Thomas R.

Allen stated that the charge was filed with him and the school's Administiative Committee. The accusation will . be reviewed by a "university investigator," 'Allen added. The investigator will make a report "and then we will make a decision on what to do next," he explained. Declining to be more specific, Allen did not say whether those who made the accusations and those accused were stu- dents or faculty members.

Graduate Assembly last night passed a motion asserting that Central Student Judiciary has jurisdiction over cases of students involved in the Black Action Movement strike. T he motion was made after Peter Den ton, Grad, who was charged with disrupting classes "during the strike, spoke before the group. Denton and Marc Van Der Hout, '71, were charged with disrupting the computer science class of mathematics Prof. Bernard Gal- ler. Both Denton and Van DerHout have said they will appear only before CSJ. The group that deals with aca- demic offenses in the graduate school is a board of iruiry con- sisting of three faculty members and two students. GA said last night'that if they were asked to send students to sit on the board of inquiry in the Denton case, they would refuse and would explain their position.' The Rackham Board of Execu- tives. composed ofl faculty and ad- ministrators, met yesterday to dis- cuss the Denton issue.

According to Allen, he and the Administrative Committee decided yesterday not to press charges themselves butto leave that deci- sion up to "law school members." They ordered that charges were to be filed against' specific strik- ers and that all accusations were to have been made by 5 p.m. yes- terday. During the strike, the law school retained Robert Grace, formerly a U.S. Attorney and now practicing law in Ann Arbor, to investigate "strike-related conduct" and re- port to the Dean and the Admin- istrative Committee. Edwin Fabre,. a leader of BAM and a law school student, s a i d yesterday that he had heard that Grace had uncovered enough evi- dence for the Administrative Com- mittee to press charges against two first-year law students., However, Fabre pointed out that the committee had declined to do so because "due to an oversight, the law school did not issue t h e rules of conduct of the, school" to A raibunctious evening Students move into the street near South Quad as approximately 200 people gathered between South and West quads last night after an unidentified person provoked dorm residents by shouting from the sf reet. Dozens of balloons and firecrackers were dropped from dorm windows and a group of students later surrounded the provacateur.
