A nine-story commercial building
may be constructed on the corner of
Main and Huron if the plan presented to
City Council Monday night is approved
when it comes up for a vote in a few
weeks.
A model of the burnished brick and
- opaque glass complex was presented by
the architects of Hobbs and Black
Assoc. Architect Bill Hobbs said one of
the most attractive features of the of-
fice and shop complex is the urban park
planned for the lower level, which
would include benches and plants and
might resemble the Liberty Plaza
common area.
THE OWNER of the property, Ann
Arbor attorney Leo Angelos, is a par-
tner in the Fleetwood Realty Co. That
firm has built numerous high-rises in
the Chicago Loop area, according to
Hobbs.
Hobbs told Council parking could not
be incorporated into the plan for three
reasons:
Fhe parking provisions would eliminate
the open park space;

* such provisions would render the
project economically unfeasible;
" the lot size is too small to permit
parking space on it.
The cost of the complex is estimated
at approximately $5 million, and
backers hope construction can begin at
the start of the next building season in
the spring. Hobbs said bids could be
submitted beginning in January,
provided that Council approves the
plan.
Following the meeting, Mayor Louis
Belcher said that he knew of expressed
opposition to the project. He added that
the Downtown Advisory Committee,
and the downtown business
organizations are in favor of the plan.
A parking-exempt ordinance applies
to the district in which the building
would be located, and therefore people
using the facility would have to rely on
area surface lots and structures.
Dennis Serras was the only citizen
who spoke on the subject during the
publichearing devoted to the project.
He lauded the plan as a step toward
downtown revitalization and noted it as
a reversal of the shift of resources to
the Briarwood shopping mall area.
"I would hope people would like to see
Ann Arbor come back."

Feldkamp served as the University's
housing director for eleven years
before resigning his post in Sept. 1977.
He gave up his position to become the
general manager of services at Prin-
ceton University.-
ROBERT FORMAN, executive direc-
tor of the Alumni Association said,
"The interesting thing about the com-
mittee is its diversity, we wanted
women and were conscious of minority
needs."
Forman added that the association
was particularly interested in finding a
representative with a background in
the health sciences. He also noted the
range of ages on the committee.

WASHINGTON (AP) - Voluntary
sterilization, particularly in men, is in-
creasingly becoming a reversible
method of birth control as
microsurgical techniquesare improved
and standardized, according to a new
report on contraceptive technology.
The report, published Monday by the
Population Crisis Committee, says the
best surgical centers already have suc-
cess rates as high as 90 per cent in
reversing vasectomies in men who did
not suffer extensive tissue destruction
during the original sterilization.
"With standardization of sterilization

procedures to maximize the chances of
reversal, the success rate of reversal
procedures will increase," the commit
tee predicted.
THE COMMITTEE said severf
months ago that voluntary sterilization
is now the world's leading contracep-
tive method.
The nonprofit organization, which
promotes population control, also said
Monday that chemically treated
devices, including condoms that
dissolve and hormone-dispensing
vaginal rings, are likely to be the next
birth control methods on the market.

Although the Judiciary consists of
seven faculty and seven student mem-
bers, only three from each group serve
on each individual case. The faculty
members are appointed by the LSA
Executive Committee and serve two-
year terms, while the student members
are selected by the LSA Student Gover-
nment for one-year stints.
The judiciary is charged with con-
sidering circumstances surrounding
each cheating case a professor or
student brings before it, deciding the
guilt or innocence of the accused, and
setting penalties in cases where the ac-
cused is found guilty.
In the 1977-78 academic year, 38 cases
of student academic dishonesty were
tried, with 18 such cases tried the
preceding year, and 19 the year before
that.
LSA ASSISTANT Dean Eugene
Nissen said the case figures are low
because- professors often handle
questions of student dishonesty directly
with the individuals in question.
The judiciary gets the go-ahead to
deal with eheating cases after they are
determined to involve violations cited
under the Code of Academic Conduct.
The code, developed in 1973, contains
provisions for cases involving
plagiarism, cheating, and fabrication
of records and official documents.
Before accused students appear at a
hearing, they are given a "Manual of
Procedures," which explains the steps
their case will follow. The manual also
explains the appeals process, states the
legal rights of parties involved, and
lists the verdicts that could be taken.
BUT NISSEN said the manual isn't
always effective, and that he knows of
cases in which students had their
charges dismissed because of
technicalities within the manual.
"The procedure manual works
reasonably well," he said. "It was
never designed to be a legal document.
We don't pretend to imitate a court of
law. If that were the case, you could
punch a hole in every line, in every
thought of that document." The
manual, he added, is designed only to
provide students with "due process."
Actions ranging from a letter of
reprimand to permanent expulsion
from the University are among those
spelled out in the manual. But Nissen
said in the past year, the trend has been
towards stricter penalization.
"ONE OF THE complaints .lodged
against the judiciarya few years ago
was that the actions they took were too
light. I think there's a general shift
toward a more serious interpretation of
the code."
Bradwick agrees that, of late, the
judiciary has tightened up.
"I see the students in the appeal
procedure," he said, "and too often
they are surprised that they have
received a serious penalty - and that
makes us very uncomfortable."
WHEN AN appeal is requested, a
minimum of two students and two
faculty members sit on the board, with
Bardwick presiding. Students found
guilty after this step have no alter-
native but to face the consequences.
In addition to facing up to the penalty,
students have the violation recorded on
their transcript. In some instances, if
students have cleaned up their records,
they can have mention of the violation
erased from their transcript. But, as
Nissen explained, the students'troubles

Trautwein said a six-month criminal
penalty would be suspended. The judge
said that since the case had gone to the
jury, he would no longer keep Farber
imprisoned for withholding his notes as
evidence.
Farber had last been jailed Oct. 12 for
refusing to surrender notes in the case.
The newsman spent 27 days in jail in
August.
The Times, which was also convicted
of contempt, had paid $265,000 in fines,
including a $100,000 criminal penalty
and $5,000 daily, Times Attorney
Eugene Scheiman said Monday.
Rosenthal estimated the Farber case
has cost the New York Times $1 million.
He said the precedent set by the fines
and the power to fine may have a
chilling effect on other newspapers
around the country.
"Many newspapers throughout the
country may be worried about the
precedents set by. these fines," Rosen-
thal said.
