SHAPIR O PLEDGES 'U' S UPPOR T:
i
'Year of Child' programs start
By CAROL KOLETSKY
The University's major initiative this
year will be its commitment to the
rights of children and the intentions of
the International Year of the
Child(IYC), President-designate
Harold Shapiro said last night.
Shapiro spoke to an enthusiastic
audience in Rackham Auditorium as
part of a technically sophisticated
multi-media presentation. Dr.
Estafania Aldaba-Lim, assistant
secretary general of the United Nations
(UN) and world chairperson of the IYC,
and thirty Ann Arbor public junior high
school students arrayed in brightly
colored IYC T-shirts joined the two on
stage.
THE PROGRAM began as the
children, accompanied by a five-piece
band, sang a song in celebration of the
year. Shapiro followed by saying that
there should not actually be a year to
honor children, but that every minute
should honor them.
He then listed the rights of children
outlined in the UN charter, including
the rights to love, understanding, affec-
tion, quality health care, education, and
recreation.
Shapiro said the University's role this
year will be to develop and conduct
programs and .research that will
safeguard and encourage these rights.
A SPECIAL SLIDE presentation
backed up Shapiro's description of the
numerous services available to
children at the University. At Univer-
sity Hospital, for example, a "Child
Protection Team" evaluates cases of
child abuse and neglect. Another
University team works to keep families
together.
Additional services include in-
tramural sports for families, programs
for handicapped children, and special
dental treatment at the University Den-
tal School. A special segment of the
program included a tape and slides of a
linguist who teaches English to foreign
children using his guitar and songs he
writes that "reinforce natural English
intonation patterns."
Shapiro discussed new proposals for
the coming year, including an early
childhood center which will provide
medical treatment to youngsters. The
center will be located in old St. Joseph's
Hospital and will be operating by Sep-
tember 1980.
Regent Sarah Power (D-Ann Arbor),
introduced Dr. Lim, a University
alumnus. Dr. Lim described some of
her experiences in the 65 countries she
has visited this year.
"As a result of IYC, the global
response has been an overwhelming
tidal wave. One hundred sixty-six coun-
tries have established IYC com-
missions. They are banning the sale of
war toys in Sweden; in Japan, kids are
helping out with kids' problems. In the
USSR, the IYC theme is 'Children are
the only privileged class in this coun-
try' "
LIM SAID that if American children
were given the same share of the
national budget as armaments, their
basic needs could be met. "The
statistics are appalling; a distortion of
human priorities," Lim said.
Lim said the emphasis of the year is
on helping poorer, third-world nations,
in which 0-5-year-olds are the most
vulnerable to malnutrition, poor health
care and education, and disease. The
infant mortality rate in Africa and
Latin America are as much as ten
times the U.S. rate, Lim said.
Industrialized, affluent countries
have different problems, of which
television violence, juvenile delinquen-
cy, drugs, prostitution and pregnancy
are only a few, Lim claimed.
She also cited children's problems in
"the fourth world" of urban ghettos.
UNICEF, which has been the back-
bone of IYC, will inherit the work of
IYC once the year officially ends in
June 1980. Lim stressed that action for
children must be lasting.

UNIVERSITY PRESIDENT-DESIGNATE Harold Shapiro emphasized the
University's support of the International Year of the Child last night in
Rackham Auditorium.
Iacocca named Chrysler chairman
DETROIT (UPI) - Chrysler Corp's
Board of Directors yesterday named
Lee Iacocca chairman and chief
executive of the troubled company and
elevated two other Ford Motor Co.
alumni to top management positions.
The board granted former chairman
John Riccardo's request for early
retirement, ending his 20-year
association with the crisis-prone No. 3
automaker.
IT HAD LONG been anticipated
Iacocca would succeed Riccardo. The
mystery had centered on whodwould be
named No. 2 man in the company,
replacing Iacocca as president and
chief operating officer.
Elected to that spot was J. Paul
Bergmoser, 63, a specialist in the
logistics of automobile manufacturing
and a 30-year Ford veteran.
Bergmoser joined Chrysler in June of
this year as executive vice president for
procurement and supply after serving
in a similar role at Ford.
GERALD GREENWALD, 44, a 22-
year Ford veteran, was named
executive vice president for finance.
Both Bergmoser and Greenwald were
given seats on the Chrysler Board of
Directors.
Iacocca, who was fired as Ford
president last year by Henry Ford II af-
ter =32: years ' with the company, has
given several top executive positions at
Chrysler to former colleagues at Ford.
The company's highest management
echelon now is free of any stigma at-
tached to allegations of past
management mistakes - one of the
reasons for Riccardo's early
retirement.
RICCARDO, 55, said earlier he is
stepping down to make certain his ide
tification with past management woul<
not hamper the company's request fo
government financial help.
Riccardo and Iacocca have spent
months tiimming Chrysler's expenses
and developing a plan to return it t
profitability.
The plan seeks $1.2 billion in federa
loan guarantees - $700 million of tha
on a contingency basis - and calls fo
Chrysler to remain a full-line car an
truck producer.
Chrysler has said it expects to lose
$1.5 billion this year and in 1980. But ii
predicts it will turn a profit in 1981 with
the introduction of a new lineof fron
wheel drive compacts and increase
capacity to build engines for its sub
compact lines.
