By ROBERT JOHNSTON Michigan's economic growth in' the next decade will largely depend on the use of state uni- versity resources to infuse new technologies into the state's in- dustrial base, a report released today by the Industrial Devel- opment Division (IDD) of the Institute of Science and Tech- nology states. The study, "A Comparison of the Research Patterns of Michigan Universities w i t h State and National Research and Industrial Trends," was written by Frank R. Bacon and Kenneth E. Bayer of IDD. In analyzing the state uni- versities' research emphases, the report finds large imbal- ances between these and the present emphases in Michigan industry. However, the report explains that the universities' emphases correspond to the areas national growth in. in- dustry. Diversified "In light of the state's need for more diversified industrial growth,the national character of university research in Mich- igan represents a positive po- tential. The existence of strong research capibilities in the sci- ence and technology associated with the nation's major growth industries can provide the new technologies which can further vitalize the state's already strong machinery and metal working base.

BIOLOGY, ENGINEERING: Adopt Master's Bioengine( By SUSAN COLLINS This time two years ago, a bioengineering program aimed at the engineer, the qualified student in science and the medical student was adopted by the University's Rackham School of Graduate Studies. According to Prof. Glenn V. Edmonson, dean of the engi- neering college and one of the main coordinators of the program, it was designed to cause "an in- teraction between two equally strong, equally capable practicing professions, both of which have the objective of serving society, but in different ways." In a speech delivered to the National Electronics Conference, Bdmonson stated that three rea- sons might be cited for recent decisions of American universities to study this interdisciplinary ef- fort and to train students for careers in bioengineering. First "it must be recognized that the engineer has evolved in the last fifteen to twenty years from a person capable of dealing with essentially steady-state phe- nomena to a person capable of understanding and dealing with complex, nonlinear systems that are always in a state of transient behavior. Complex The engineer finds that he be- haves in many ways similar to the complex, nonliving systems with which he deals. He finds that his methods of analysis are applicable to biological systems. "Secondly, the rapid techno- logical advances that have been made in instrumentation, largely electrically oriented, have en- couraged the biologist to acceler- ate his research." Under this sec- ond' point, Edmonson mentioned the electron-microscope as being a particularly important develop- ment. Third, said Edmonson, comes the "immediate pressure of our man-in-space projects" which "have stimulated a very close col- laboration between the engineer, the medical doctor, the physiolo- bist, and the psychologist that few other projects in the past have fostered." Expansion There is, he added, "no doubt that the opportunities :or pai ici- pation by competent bioengineers are expanding." By way of illustration of the possibilities of the program, Ed- monson cited a civil engineer at the University who is engaged in cardiovascular research, although his particular engineering field is hydraulics. Edmonson also de- scribed chemical engineers busy with research connected with chemical processes in tae psysio- logical system, and also with bac- teriological problems associated with drug manufacturing and food processing. Going further on the same sub- ject, Edmonson maintained that the faculty of the department of electrical engineering have been establishing a world-wide reputa- tion in signal detection, of which one facet is sensory intelligence. apathy on campus, out empi-as zea I that this would not necessarily deal a fatal blow to the prospects for successful student convoca- bring D egree tions.

The grant is for $100,000 per year for at least the next three See ADD, Page 2 convocation. The first convocation was held on a Thursday night. The report stated that the attendence at a future one might be increased if it was held on a Friday night or late in the afternoon on a week day. The former would allow the convocation to become a "date- type" affair, and a late afternoon scheduling would draw students who stay on campus after their classes before returning home for dinner.

The four-month controversy be- gan last September when Berke- ley's student government and at least 20 student political groups protested an official decision bar- ring the distribution of political material at the entrance to the campus. Both liberal and conserv- ative organizations participated in the initial picketing. The new restrictions, which in- cluded a ban on recruiting of members and solicitation of funds for political organizations had their roots in a California state law which prohibits such activi- ties on a university campus. Leaders Arrested timatum was ignorea on i.ecem ver 1, more than 1000 students began an all-night protest sit-in at Sproul Hall on December 2. Violence resulted from this new protest. On orders of Gov. Ed- mund Brown, police were sent in and arrested 814 students. There were charges of police brutality. The FSM promptly called for a student strike which was generally effective. Faculty support of the students grew as many professors protested the intervention of police. Faculty members provided bail for the ar- rested students and many teach- ing fellows supported the student strike. Senate Action By MARK KILLINGSWORTH (1 "Unless the philosophy of the meek is soon adhered to, then there will be no earth to inherit," Bayard Rustin said yesterday at the semester's first Office of Re- ligious Affairs lecture. Rustin, the well-known civil rights leader and organizer of the 1963 March on Washington with A. Philip Randolph, stressed that the Bible "has the lessons about what we must face in today's age of revolution, for the Scriptures abound with revolution-with justice and how to obtain it." "There's no idea that made ne more furious when I was young," Rustin declared,. "than 'the meek shal inherit the earth'." The Meek "'Ro.+twhr Pa m. maek 9 T'hp dangerous ways, Rustin maintain- ed.
