*1 Page 14-Friday, September 15, 1978-The Michigan Daily Smith a University veteran (Continued from Page 1) Hastings, but decided he would most ef- fectively serve the University in that capacity. He said he was very surprised when the Regents asked him to replace Fleming._ "WHEN THE REGENTS contacted me on Monday, I thought they wanted my assistance in finding a new president. They told me they wanted a response by Tuesday morning so that Fleming's decision to leave and an- nouncement of a new acting president could be announced simultaneously," said Smith. Hastings Law School Dean Marvin Anderson commended the Regents decision and said the school would "sorely miss" Smith. "The University of Michigan is to be congratulated for its wisdom and per- ception in persuading Professor Smith to become president," said Dean An- derson. ANDERSON SAID the students were greatly impressed by Smith when he taught there in the fall of 1976 and were eagerly awaiting his arrival on cam- pus. Smith refused to speculate on the major issues facing the University next year, explaining he had not had time to meet with Fleming or other administrators to discuss the agenda. Smith was born on December 19, 1911 in Belgrade, Nebraska. After com- pleting his undergraduate studies at Nebraska State Teachers College a the University of Nebraska, he earne Master of Law degree at the Univers in 1941. AFTER A TWO YEAR stint in Military Intelligence Service du World War II, he returned to Ann Ar in 1946 to lecture in law and work a research associate. In 1947, he was appointed an assists professor offlaw at the University a was promoted to associate professor 1950 and to professor in 1952. He became dean of the Law School 1960 and vice-president for acaden affairs in 1965. He resigned that post 1974 to return to teaching law. He se he will continue his teaching duties the remainder of the semester. THE U.

These new hours have created problems for employed parents who leave for work before their children leave for school in the mor- ning. The board has suggested implemen- tation of a child supervision program to eleviate the situation, but the idea has not been greeted enthusiastically. The program would feature low-key activities such as movies, arts and craf- ts, beginning at 8 a.m., until school starts. Parents would have to provide transportation and pay a fee of $1 per day for one child, and .75 for each ad- ditional child.. President of the Ann Arbor Education Assocition Larry Stewart, objects to the charge. "We created this situation," he said. "It's unfair to charge parents who pay taxes for this service." HOWEVER, DOUGLAS Walker, Ann Arbor Schools Recreation Director, said, "In most cases, for working parents, they are already paying for a sgruntled. baby sitting service 4nd this would hopefully be more educational. It would be our hope that as the program matures the supervisors will have some feedback ,from teachers to set up programs to' help benefit the child's regulaf school." The program could be harmful to the children's development and education, according to Thurston Elementary School principal Burton Lamkin. "Our concern is that the total school day is being made longer," he noted. "The llonger the school day, the more energy used up, the less learning will take place. Any child who attends that program will be in school seven hours and 20 minutes which is absurd for that age group." As an alternative to the program, en- ding the school day later was suggested, but decided against. Accor- ding to Harry Howard, Schools Superin- tendent, this plan "couldn't be done without inconveniencing many, many others." He noted that children par- ticipating in intermediate intermural sports programs and other after school activities would be unable to return home before dark. ..
