Wage Eight THE MICHIGAN DAILY Tuesday, September 30, 1969 Page Eight THE MICHIGAN DAILY Tuesday, September 30, 1969 Strike claims limited URGES COMMUNICATION: (Continued from Page 1) students just smiled and brushed by the pickets. There were no re- ported incidents of strikers forci- bly preventing students to enter any building. Although there were some stu- dents who entered 8 a.m. classes to explain the strike issue, t h e "rapping" in classes did not start until 9 a.m. and continued from then throughout the day. During these "raps," strikers asked the professor before class for permission to explain the is- sues behind the strike. Profes- sors generally agreed and in many instances these 5 minute explana- tions branched out into half hour and sometimes hour-long discus- sions of the student power drive. One exception was Prof. K. L. Jones of Botany 103 who refused to allow striker Bernard Elbaum to speak before the class as the class, he said, was just about to begin. During the discussions, the strikers told students they had very little power in the University decision-making process and urg- ed them to strike to show the ad- ministration their dissatisfaction with their impotence in policy- making. There were no reported in- stances however, of students leav- ing class after the strikers speech. Following the talk, a profesor of- ten gave his position and the class voted, generally, to remain in class. An urban studies class in the Residential College, however, vot- ed 14-2 not to hold class. There were also some instances of professors offering to dismiss class if the students were willing. Prof. Conrad Kottak who teach- es Anthropology 101 told students that they did not have to attend class if they did not desire and added that the material he was covering would not appear on the support pled, Reaske's had about 90 per cent of the students there. Prof. Alfred Meyer's Political Science 407 class also spent the hour discussing the decision-mak- ing issues. Prof. Dariel Fusfeld spent the hour explaining to the class why the bookstore was not economically, feasible, though he admitted sym- pathies to the student power movement. He allowed a student organizer to speak for the remain- ing 10 minutes of the hour. History 561 Prof. Sidney Fine-- who estimated about 150 students of 180 usually there-explainedr that he would not support the strike because he wanted to pre- serve the separation of politics and the classroom. Former Student Government' Council member Mark Rosenbaum spoke for about three minutes and then left. Although the attendances of these humanity-oriented classes was in many cases 20 per cent down, classes in mathematics and natural sciences continued nor- mally and without student-profes- sor discussions. a Introductory chemistry students, faced hourlies yesterday and did not, consequently, strike, many students explained. Attendance figures approached 90 per cent, in the zoology, geology, astronomy and physics classes sampled. Language students in introduc- tory Spanish and French classes agreed that the class was near full attendance. e yes- The same high attendance figure is dis- applied to the Law School.

Faculty backs Fleming Specia I Rate IContinued from Page 1) In support of the administra- tion, classics Prof. Howard Cam- eron said he was surprised at how "eccommodating" the Regents and Fleming have been. "The issue has nothing to do with the bookstore," Cameron said. "Every noon I see a rally with the same people casting about for an issue and, as a credit to Ari'aityn LSA prlotesters Continued from Page 1 This includes the use or threat of force or violence. Many of the defendants yester- day told the judges they did not understand the nature of the charges against them and insist- ed that the statute be read. Many also asked for individual jury trials. The request for individual jury trials was granted for the time being by Thomassen but was re- jected by Elden. Those defendants in Elden's court who requested in- dividual jury trials did not press the issue when denied. But, when Peter Denton, an or- ganizer of yesterday's class strike, asked the judge what he could do to appeal Elden's consolidation of trials, Elden reportedly told him to speak with his lawyer. Thomassen, however, ruled le would not consider consolidating his trials until a motion was made to that effect by either the prose- cuting attorney or the defense.. City officials and local attor- neys said yesterday that although the question of granting an indi- vidual or consolidated jury trial is at the discretion of the court, they believed it is possible to appeal the decision. Assistant C o u n t y Prosecutor Thomas Shea said he does not know at this time if the prosecu- tion will ask for consolidated trials. The commuter bus will discon- tinue its Church St. stop as of Oct. 1, stopping instead at the north end of the Washtenaw Ave. bus shelter. Other commuter stops will not be changed. On the same day the North Campus buses will stop at a new shelter on Bishop St. This stop will replace the present Bishop St. stop and the Northwood IV stop on Beal at Bishop. their pei severance, they've finally found one." The faculty meibers generally praised Fleming for the handling of the sit-in. Some o1 those pres- ent expressed the view that to de- feat the proposed motion would, in effect., force his resignation. Dissenting. philosophy , P r o f. Frithjof Bergmann offered an amendment deleting a sentence' concerning Fleming's handling of the sit-in crisis. "As a matter of principle, police should be brought on campus only as a last resort," he said. But the amendment was defeated, despite some support. Near the close of the meeting discussions on faculty participa- tion in the Oct. 15 strike against the war in Vietnam were brought up. A resolution allowing students and faculty to cancel classes, to hold teach-ins and other activi- ties will be voted on at a special Assembly meeting next Monday at 2:15 pam.
