Carter's
NEW YORK (AP) - Americans now
give President Carter the lowest job
rating of any president in nearly three
decades, as their unhappiness with his
handling of the economy and foreign af-
fairs has deepened, an Associated
Press-NBC News poll says.,
Despite Carter's midsummer efforts
to change the course and image of his
administration, he is now in serious
trouble with almost every segment of
the population - including politically
crucial ones like Democrats, Souther-
ners, small town, and rural residents,
and his 1976 supporters.
This weakness comes as Sen. Edward
Kennedy (D-Mass.), has revealed in
recent days that he is considering a
challenge to Carter for the party's
presidential nomination next year.
OVERALL, ONLY 19 per cent of
those interviewed nationwide Monday
rating reac
and Tuesday rated Carter's work ex-
cellent or good.
That is down six points from the AP-
NBC News July poll, which was his
previous low.
Forty-nine per cent said his efforts
are only fair and 30 per cent said they
were poor. Two per cent of the 1,600
adults interviewed nationwide by
telephone were not sure.
THE 19 PER cent mark is the lowest
ever received by an American
president since this rating question was
first asked in the 1950s.
Carter's key weaknesses in the
public's eyes are his handling of the
twin threats of inflation and recession
and his reaction to the presence of
Soviet combat troops in Cuba.
Here are some of the questions asked
on the AP-NBC News poll:
1. WHAT KIND of a job do you think
Jimmy Carter is doing as president? Do
you think he is doing an excellent job, a
good job, only a fair job, or do you think
he is doing a poor job?
2. What kind of a job do you think
Jimmy Carter is doing handling our
foreign affairs? Do you think he is doing
an excellent job, a good job, only a fair
job or do you think he is doing a poor
job?
3. What kind of a job do you think
Jimmy Carter is doing handling our
energy problems? Do you think he is
doing an excellent job, a good job, only
a fair job, or do you think he is doing a
poor job?
ON HIS ,HANDLING of economic
problems in general, only ten per cent
of the public gave Carter an excellent
or good rating for his work on the
nation's economic woes - the loviest
job rating ever for Carter in any area.
Forty-seven per cent said his work has
been poor and forty per cent called it as
hes record low point
only fair. Three per cent were not sure.
On foreign policy in general, 22 per,
cent of those interviewed gave him top,
marks - down 11 points from July.
Forty-two per, cent rated his inter-
national efforts only fair and 32 per cent
said they were fair. Four per cent were
not sure.
The recent revelation that 3,0001
Soviet combat troops are stationed in;
Cuba has not helped Carter with the-
public.
Fifty-six per cent of the public said:
Carter is not tough enough in his
dealings with the Soviets - even as the
Carter administration is holding talks.
with the Soviets about the troops. That-
finding is 12 points more negative than-
the results of the February 1979 AP--
NBC News survey.
Thirty-one per cent said this week:
that Carter has set the right tone it
negotiations with the Soviets.

WCCAA plans disruption

discussed by some of the 20 who atten-
ded Wednesday night's WCCAA
meeting. The group acknowledged
security at the Administration Building
was likely to be tight, making a sit-in
there difficult.
The group is requesting that it be in-
cluded in the Regents agendato present
its revisions to the SAACFA report and
to discuss theUniversity's policy with
the Regents. The group will also ask
that Friday morning's meeting be
moved to a larger room to accom-
modate a crowd.
Much of the group's plan depends on
the number of supporters it attracts to
the Regents meeting. It will hold a rally
at noon on the Diag Thursday to draw
students. Wednesday night, the WCCAA
set up a "contingency committee" of
six to make on-the-spot decisions for the
group.
THE ORGANIZATION plans not to
disrupt the meeting until a proposal for
total divestment is presented to the
Regents. The WCCAA hopes Regent
James Waters (D-Muskegon), who has
puonciy ravored University divest-
ment, will propose the action. The
group also hopes a Regent will in-
troduce its set of revisions to the
SAACFA report.

SCATTERED looting broke out with
the dawn, and Mayor A.J. Cooper of
Prichard, a suburb of 50,000, told police
to fire two warning shots at looters,
then "shoot to kill."
Police Maj. Winston Orr of the Mobile
police said six people were arrested on
looting charges. National Guardsmen
were sent into the streets to curtail thef-
ts.
Catherine Hawkins, a member of the
Mississippi National Guard, sat in the
smashed window of a musical in-
strument- store in Pascagoula with an
M-16 rifle in her lap, guarding against
looters.;
OFFICIALS SAID streets and roads
were nearly impassable because of
downed timbers and power lines.

study says

"In the 1950's and 60's, professoris
were paid a relatively high level cont-
pared to other professions. That's less
true now," explained Arthur Miller, an
associate research scientist at the In-
stitute for Social Research (ISR).
"People in academia have takeb
cuts. 'Funding and salaries haven't kejt
up with inflation," Miller said.,"The
strongest researchers are the first to
leave because they have the best oppor-
tunities in the private sector. It's really
a question of how much does it take
before a researcher thinks it's not wor-
th it anymore," he said.
Miller said universities will suffer
greatly from the loss of the top reseat-
chers. Academic administrators will
have to offer incentives to bring them
back. "It's a cyclical thing," he said.
"It will have to reverse itself, but the
70's simply aren't like the 60's were."
But until that time, universities will
suffer, Duderstadt agreed. "It used to
be the best place to do research was on
a campus. That's no longer true. Now
industry attracts research becauso
they don't have to put up with as man'
hassles and administrative burdens, '
he said.
