I Y 5O SEE N_ 6HM N CLLG:IL L ' Leading the blind They're singing the First-Day-of-School Blues in section 11 of Sociology 100. Early yesterday morning, an unidentified Literary College senior hijacked the discussion group by removing a sign an- nouncing the class has been cancelled and setting himself up as the teaching assistant. As a stunned group of 25 students, mostly fresh- persons, looked on, the bearded senior announced that his section of sociology was going to focus on the natural sciences. "We shall see how protons spinning around and around point directly to the meaninglessness of the world as seen by Kafka and Sartre," he in- toned. "The cultural explosion of the Renaissance was very much like the Big Bang theory of the creation of the universe." He then assigned a host of supplementary reading including advanced physics texts, ob- scure Lati philosophers, Moby Dick, and Cocktail Party ("con- sidered by many to be the worst of T.S. Eliot's works"). Pre-Med students were assured they would have an easier grading scale since "they are not sociologically minded, and this material is harder for them." Other students were told not to worry about the calculus in- tegral on the board, or the short paper due Monday. The studen- ts sat passively and copied each bit of misinformation as it was written on the board, apparently resigned to the fact that this is college and the world of academics works in strange and wonderful ways. After 15 minutes of perverse ramblings, the class, none the wise, was dismissed. The Odd Couple In a city that thrives on political confrontation, at least two Univer- sity students, from opposite ends of the political spectrum, were able to peacefully coexist in a Georgetown University dorm room during their stint with the University's Washington Internship Program this summer. Yvonne McClenney, who ran unsuccessfully for Michigan student Assembly (MSA), president under the People's Action Coalition (PAC) banner last April was somehow paired with Jane Moore, an MSA representative, and Student Alliance for Better Representation (SABRA) party member. In the wake of April's trou led MSA elections, there was little love lost between the opposing parties. Further complicating the summer, McClenney's internship was with the Democratic National Committee, while Moore worked for the Republican National Committee. But other than a few conten- tious conflicts over Sen. Edward Kennedy, Moore said the two got along very well. "It was really a fun summer," she said, "she (Mc- Clenney) was really an enjoyable roommmate." He asked for it Literary College Dean Billy Frye has rolled out the welcome mat for students who wish to discuss problems, or suggestions, regarding LSA, or the University in general. On Wednesdays, from 1:30 to 3 p.m. Frye will conduct office hours at 2522 LSA Bldg. Appointments are not necessary. Correction A story in Thursday's Daily (the Special Fall Edition) reported that 100 students were enrolled in the Residential College (RC) during the 1978-79 academic year. Actually, more than 630 students were enrolled in the RC last year. We apologize for the error. Happenings FILMS Ann Arbor Film Co-op-A Shot in the Dark, 7 p.m., MLB Aud. 3.

Longer lines and some confusion are expected to mark the first attempt today at weekend consolidation of food service in University residence halls, according to campus housing officials. Beginning today, West Quad, Betsy Barbour and Helen Newberry residents will eat Saturday lunches and dinners and Sunday dinners at South Quad ac- cording to the plan approved in an economy move by the University's Board of Regents last winter. STUDENTS LIVING in Mosher- Jordan will join the 1200 residents of Markley for weekend meals and Alice Lloyd residents will eas at Couzens. A limited number of Hill-area residents can get meal transfers to Stockwell, said Housing Food Service Coordinator Because of the home football game scheduled for this afternoon, Housing officials predicted that implementing the new plan for the first time will be even more complicated than on a typical weekend. "We are adjusting meal hours," Tub- bs said, in order to accommodate students who plan to attend the 1:30 game. TUBBS SAID he hopes extended ser- ving hours and increased ,staffs will make the first weekend of the plan go as smoothly as possible. Aesidents should note the serving times in each dorm. The new plan is being implemented in an effort to reduce board rates for students, saii Associate Director of Housing John Finn. With the food ser- vice consolidation, Finn estimated, there is a savings of $12 dollars per resient which has been figured in the rate schedule for this school year. "(Cafeteria) lines may be a little long," Finn said. But, "lines will be open longer" to serve the larger volume of students in each of the host halls. At Markley and South Quad, Satur- day lunch hours will be extended, but dinner hours on Saturday and Sunday will remain two hours long. On home Saturdays the Markley cafeteria will be open from 9:30 to 12:15 for lunch and 4:30 to 6:30 for dinner. Sunday dinner is scheduled for 11:00 until 1 p.m. A Markley cafeteria manager, Mary Hill, said the 1500 students expected to eat in the dorm this weekend should be served smoothly "unless they all come at once." UP TO 2,000 students, 700 more than usual, may eat in the South Quad dinign rooms this weekend, accprding to cafeteria manager Nathanfa 1 Jones. "We're geared for it," he said. Serving hours at South Quad are 10 to 12:30 for lunch on home football Satur- days and 4:30 to 6:30 for dinner, as usual. Sunday lunch lines are open from 11:30 to 1:30. Finn said he is interested in seeing how staff and students react to the first .try at consolidation. He said he expects some students to object to the incon- venience, but, "we hope things will go well." Following intense student protests, the Regents rejected a request by the Housing office to construct a separate central dining hall for the Hill-area dormitories last January.

Now the state pays the city $500,000 a year. Looking into Ann Arbor's future, Murray said subsidized housing is one method of counteracting the exclusion of lower income people from Ann Arbor due to escalating'housing costs. He said the city's growth is finally slowing down after years of rapid expansion, which cannot be repeated due to the physical limits imposed by outlying townships. Court refuses to reinstate ex-prof By JULIE ENGEBRECHT A former University professor will not return to the classroom this fall, a Detroit Federal District Court judge decided this week in a preliminary ruling. Jonathan Marwil, assistant professor in the humanities department of the College of Engineering until last May, filed a $1.1 million suit against the University Board of Regents and three staff members of the college last mon- th. The suit asked that Marwil be gran- ted preliminaryrelief,,which would have allowed him to resume his position pending trial. A PRETRIAL conference is scheduled for Tuesday. A date for the trial has not yet been set. Marwil alleges he was unfairly drop- ped from the faculty without a tenure review. In the suit he charges that his rights to due process of law and freedom of speech were violated in the administrative decision not to grant him a reappointment hearing. Jerold Lax, Marwil's attorney, said yesterday that Judge Philip Pratt's ruling was "not really a surprise or great disappointment." He added that . requests for preliminary relief are not granted as a matter of course. Lax said Pratt based his decision on the premise that if Mar- wil wins the case, he will be compen- THE MICHIGAN DAILY (USPS 344-900) Volume LXXXX, No. 3 Saturday, September 8, 1979 is edited and managed by students at the University of Michigan.

Supporters of Marwil approached the Regents in May, June, and July, asking for intervention in the former professor's alleged right to a tenure review. The Board took no action. "WHY DO THE HEATHEN RAGE?" Psalms 2:1 and Acts 4:25 "Ye that love the Lord hate evill...Take thou away from me the noise of thy songs; for I will not hear the melody of thy viols. But let judgment run down as waters, and righteousness as a mighty stream!" Psalm 7:10 and Amos 5:23and 24 One may love the great hymns and music of the Church, but If one does not "hate evil" it appears God does not ap- preciate the music, and it is unacceptable! "1 have thought of my life as an arrow shot out of a bow: For a moment it is seen as it takes its flight across the landscape, then drops Intorobscurity. Let me be a man of ONE BOOK, THE BIBLE, and let me walk in its light for my own safety and that of my fellow men, that when I drop out of sight into obscurity I may be "Safe in The Arms of Jesus." - This is not an accurate quote, but is based on a statement of John Wesley. In one respect it is suggested he was mistaken, for the light his life reflected of The One Book has shined not for a moment but through centuries and has been seen across a very limited landscape not at all, but across the landscape of most of the world. He, and "The people called Methodist". 'Loved The Lord, and hated evil" in obedience to the com- mand of God. They were especially noted, and offensive to many, for rebuking sin wherever they saw it - the sin of "any want of conformity unto or transgression of The Law of God." Often they suffered for it, but the reason they gave for "giving offense" was that they must "deliver their own souls" for if they did not warn men of God's wrath and curse to come upon the unrepentant, God would require the blood of lost souls at their hands. Read Ezekiel 3:17, etc., and chapters 18 and 33 "The heart in your bosom is a 'muffled drum' beating out a march to the cemetery for you!" When they take you and me to the cemetery for deposit, it is because our spirit has left this "home of clay" and gone to Its "long home," and back to GodgWho gave it. The Bible tells of two different kinds of 'long homes." One where "eye bath not seen, ear hath not heard, neither hath entered the mind of man the things God hath prepared for them that love Him." - a man's mind is not capable of thinking of or imagining the great good, joy and blessing of that home. We mouth much about "The love of God" but it would be well if we considered more "our love for God" and how and in what manner it is manifested. Jesus Christ said that in order that the world might know that He loved God, He obeyed Him and did as He was commanded: "Arise, and let us go hencel" He arose, andwenttomeetthemob, thecross, asmostof His disciples fled. The other "long home" is the "lake of fire" prepared for the devil and his angels, for raging and unrepentant men and nations, for "God is angry with the wicked every day' and "The wicked shall be turned into hell, and all the nations that forget God." Psalm 7:11 and Psalm 9:17. "it is appointed unto men once to die, but after this the judgement." Hebrew 9:27. The judgement, that appointment will tell the story, as the hand-writing on the wall did in the 5th chapter of Daniel, whether or not we are "weighed and found wanting." P.O.
