Confrontation on South University Ave. was narrowly averted last night as Mayor Robert Harris ordered police to stay away. By 1:28 a.m. there were only 75 people left on South University, most on the block between South Forest and Church. Traffic was flowing freely on South University and neighboring streets. At 2 a'm. only about 30 people remained on the entire length of South University. But at various times during the evening the crowd of up to 600 swelled into the streets. Traffic was not completely closed off, however. There were scattered incidents of bottle throwing and one fight broke out. No uniformed police were on the street at any time, although 120 Ann Arbor and 30 state police were alerted a.d stationed nearby on Tappan. Mayor Harris came to South University twice last night, both times urging people to get off the streets and go home.. In addition, Harris said Ann Arbor Police Chief Walter Krasny would not bring in police without word from him. He also said Washtenaw County Sheriff Douglas Harvey had agreed not to come in, but noted the sheriff had the right to come in whenever he chose to do so under the state constitution. "We're very grateful. Everyone's been very cooperative," Harris said late last night. Harris explained to a group of people on the sidewalk that "we want to keep Sheriff Harvey out of operation." At least two county deputy patrol cars were seen cruising the area last night. Skip Taube and other members of the White Panther Party were also helping to clear the street. Taube warned the crowd that the police "would either arrest everyone or bust our heads in" unless' they left. Several University professors heli ed direct traffic, including his- tory professors Arthur Medel, Shaw Livermore and Gerhard Wein- berg; Dr. Albert Wheeler of the Medical School; and James O'Neill, chairman of the Romance languages department. The tensest moment of the night miay have been at about 11 p.m. when many of the crowd who had been gathering all night moved into the streets. Two members of the God's Children motorcycle gang moved into the street and yelled to the crowd to join them. The street was mo- mentarily closed by a large group of people who moved in: However, cars which came down the street five minutes later were able to get through slowly. Harris then arrived and began walking the street trying to get people to leave. City Administrator Guy Larcom, Jr. and Assistant City Admin- istrator Don Borut were also on the street with Harris. During the night rumors that the police were about to clear the street contiiued to circulate. At 11:30 a.m. Diana Farmer, who said she was entering the University in the fall, stood up on a can in the street and told people the police were on the way and "had the right to shoot if they want to."She later said she obtained the information from a police band Sradio. The crowd began to diminish slightly after she spoke. At 11:45 Taube was also, teHing people to leave. Shortly after people began to leave, and by midnight the street cleared more nQtice- ably. People on the sidewalks were drinking wine, smoking pot and lyi milling around. About 400 remained. A large group was playing catch id with beer cans in the street, closing off one lane. ay One unidentified person argued that one lane should be closed r- and urged people to move into one lane and close it to traffic. He was unsuccessful. ap Earlier in the evening, people were milling around the block lp between Church and S. Forest.

The IM board report claims there is "apparent general student support" for a funding of new fa- cilities through a tuition hike bas- ed on the findings of the "Kirscht Study." The study says that 57 per cent of the students surveyed approve of the use of student fees to fi- nance new facilities. However, student leaders were quick to point out that the "Kir- scht Study" was conducted by a - physical education class as a method _of teaching students to: take surveys. Student leaders also cited the; fact that the questionnaire used for the study made no mention of a possible tuition increase.
