ten guarantee of "close student in-
volvement somewhere down the line, in
the presidential selection process."
' Some MSA members, however, are
wary of the current bargaining between
students and the Regents.
t' "The meeting last night (Monday)
proves bad bargaining strategy
abecause the Regents' verbal assuran-
ces are designed to appease us. It would
be a tremendous mistake to change our
strategy because it's clear the Regents
'only respond to threats such as. the

boycott," said MSA member Kate
Rubin. She also said she was against
any interviewing until a satisfactory
agreement is reached.
She stressed the need for the assem-
bly to determine specific demands to
propose to the Regents.
MSA President Eric Arnson said,
"We want to get into specifics before we
give approval to actual intent instead of
verbal assurances. This strengthens
our position so we know what we're get-
ting into."
Arnson added MSA would continue to
proceed in the process as long as both
the Regents and MSA could come to
"acceptable agreement."

Ms. Levi'n
took stand
on issues
By BRIAN BLANCHARD
Daniel Fusfeld, a University
Economics professor, paused before
deciding how best to introduce the
last person on a list of speakers
during a Democratic rally in Angell
Hall yesterday.
As he looked across stage to the
small, fine-featured woman who sat
with papers and bumper stickers
hanging out of the notebook on her
lap, he announced, "Barbara Levin
will speak on behalf of Carl Levin,
the U.S. Senate candidate."
SHE BROKE into a wide smile,
looked out at the small audience,
and asked, "Can't I speak on my
own behalf?"
The group in Auditorium A
laughed along with her and seemed
to enjoy the joke she had made on
herself, the campaigning wife.
For unlike Marge Griffin, wife of
Levin's opponent, Barbara Levin, a
University graduate in Math ('59)
and an attorney for the prestigious
Dykema-Gossett Detroit law firm,
doesn't seem entirely comfortable
playing the traditional role of
second-to-the-candidate. She sounds
more like a press secretary with a
very complete knowledge of her
man.
ON BEHALF of Carl Levin, but
using her own tight phrases, Mrs.
Levin launched into a three-minute
speech yesterday beginning with an
attack on Griffin's pro-nuclear
power stand, listing some of Carl
Levin's accomplishments as president
of Detroit's City Council, and win-
ding up with a shot at what she con-
siders an overly-broad approach to
tax-cutting by Griffin.

Few turn
out to see
Riegle
By MARK PARRENT
U.S. Senator Donald Riegle stumped
vigorously for state Democrats in
Auditorium A of Angell Hall yesterday,
but candidates and campaign aides
almost outnumbered spectators at the
rally.
Riegle, whose term does not expire
until 1982, joined state senate candidate
Edward Pierce, incumbent state
representative Perry Bullard (D-Ann
Arbor) and Barbara Levin, wife of U.S.
Senate candidate Carl Levin in the one
o'clock rally.
THE U.S. SENATOR blamed the
sparse attendance on political apathy in
today's society. He said a similar
meeting during the Vietnam War era
"would have been in a much bigger
room."
"We're lucky anybody was there,"
said State Rep. Perry Bullard (D-Ann
Arbor). "If we'd had a drinking age
spokesman there they would have
probably filled the place."
Michigan's junior Senator said many
of the issues confronting the nation and
state today are just as "life and death"
as the issues ten years ago, but many
people see them as less of an immediate
threat.
He cited such controversial subjects as
toxic substance control and arms race
negotiations.
Riegle said citizens can "takesawalk
on these issues" and leave them to the
special interests, who would make
"non-people" decisions, "or we can
decide on the other hand that we will be
as involved as before."
The candidates and Riegle each
spoke for a short time before the floor
was opened to a number of questions
from the audience.
Riegle called this year's Democratic
candidates a "strong slate." He said 16
years of a Republican state ad-
ministration is "long enough."

"Griffin is losing this election
because he doesn't have his ear on
the ground," she told the group in
reference to Griffin's nuclear power
position. "And I don't think anybody
is going to stand for it."
She stressed the role her husband,
three years her senior at 44, took in
opposition to federal "bungling" of
housing projects and Federal
Housing Administration mortgage
insurance in Detroit.
AND DURING an interview later
in the day, she defended candidate
Levin's support of the tax-limiting
Headlee amendment for largely
"psychological" reasons, claimed
Levin ads charging that Griffin has
missed a great many roll call votes
are "charitable" and once again
promoted her husband's record as a
bureaucracy fighter.
"He's speaking from his gut when
he talks about making federal
programs work," said Mrs. Levin.
"It was a big part of his experience

on council to deal with federal
programs, and he saw how many
failed miserably."
Because of his experience in ad-
dressing problems of "ar-
bitrariness, insensitivity, and in-
flexibility" on the part of the gover-
nment, the candidate would like to
be assigned to the Government
Operations Committee in the Senate
if elected.
Like Marge Griffin, Barbara
Levin, didn't devote the majority of
her time to the campaign until -the
last few months, but since the
primary, she first took a half-time
leave from her legal work and then
began campaigning full-time at the
beginning of October and has
worked some 14-hour days this mon-
th.
Mrs. Levin does "everything short
of TV debates and interviews with
editorial staffs" including shaking
hands at plants and talking at fund-
raisers.

Tanzania repels attack

DAR ES SALAAM, Tanzania (AP)-
Tanzania, which had been scoffing at
Ugandan claims that Tanzanian forces
had invaded Uganda, said yesterday it
has rushed troops to its northern border
to repel an invasion by the Ugandans.
There was no word about the fate of
16 Americans and 27 Canadians
believed living near the battle zone
along the western shore of Lake Vic-
toria. The 16 Americans, Western
diplomatic sources said, include 11
missionaries and five members of an
archeological team from Brown
University. Some other foreigners were
being evactated.
ONLY MONDAY Tanzania had scoffed
again at repeated claims by Uganda
that it was fighting an invasion of Tan-
zanians.
But Tanzanian sources said yester-
day "heavy fighting" between the two
East African countries was centered
around the Tanzanian town of Bukoba,
five miles south of the border and about
650 miles east of Dar Es Salaam,
following an invasion Monday.

Reports of the fighting could not be
confirmed independently.
Kenya called for a cease-fire and
withdrawal of troops from the border
area and offered to mediate in the
dispute.
SOURCES IN THE Ugandan exile
community of Nairobi, capital of
neighboring Kenya, said about 200
wounded Ugandan soldiers arrived at
the Makinde police barracks at Kam-
pala, the Ugandan capital, yesterday
morning aboard 10 helicopters.
The sources said the Ugandan air
force was launching air strikes in sup-
port of their troops, but further details
were not disclosed.
Ugandan President Idi Amin has
warned that Ugandan jets may bomb
strategic targets inside Tanzania in
retaliation.
Western diplomatic sources in Dar
Es Salaam said Western nationals
trapped in the reported battle area
were being evacuated to safety.

moving to North Campus and any space
on central campus that results from
that move could be considered for the
libraries," Shapiro added.
Frye agreed that such space could
best be used by the libraries.
"I have this wild idea that if West
Engineering would ever be vacated it
could be connected to the UGLI, and the
additional study space created would
relieve a lot of the pressure," Frye
said.

Iran
(Continued from Page 1)
said 35,000 persons participated in a
demonstration on the campus of Tehran
University, but that the crowd disperA
sed when it rained. About 30,000 demons
strators reportedly took part in 4
demonstration in Qum.
ANOTHER government source whd
did not want to be named said art
"emergency" plan was drawn up last
week to enable the country to maintain
60 per cent of its oil exports in the event
of a crisis in the oil industry. The source
declined to reveal details of the plan.
Prime Minister Jaafar Sharif-Emant
told Parliament the strike had created
a "dangerous situation" that could
seriously affect the country's economy.
"Those who provoke the oil company
workers to strike should know that the
halt in the export of oil will have
dangerous repercussions for the entire
nation," he told the deputies.
THE STRIKE further jolted the
government, already shaken by rioting
of conservative Moslems seeking an
end to the shah's Westernized reforms.
In New York, John Licthlau, director
of the Petroleum Industry Research
Foundation, said the Iranian strike
would have little effect unless it lasted
at least several weeks.
"If the fields stay closed for two or
three weeks and the other countries'
don't increase their production, there
would be a crunch," he said.

University Hospital (and in Michigan)
