Pi demand From AP and Reuter Iranian leaders yesterday dropped their demand that the exiled Shah of Iran be handed over to them im- mediately and set new conditions for freeing the U.S. Embassy hostages inw Tehran. But the Moslem militants holding the hostages rejected any com- promise. Iran also accused the United States of stirring a "climate of war" in the world, called for a meeting of the U.N. Security Council, and hinted it mightk seek an OPEC oil embargo against America. THE APPARENT split in Tehran came after 11 days of public solidarity f. between the hundreds of students who seized the embassy Nov. 4, - holding 98 Jhostages - and the regime of Ayatollah :Ruhollah Khomeini. Iranian foreign affairs chief Abolhas- san Bani-Sadr, in what he called "sim- ple and very practical" proposals, said the United States should agree to an in- . . 7ternational investigation of Shah Mohammad Reza Pahlavi's alleged R erimes and turn his U.S. money and property over.to Iran.

EL, Page 2 MSA funding move riles MIR C By TOM MIRGA The president of the Michigan Republicans Club (MIRC) last night said he is angered by a Michigan Student Assembly (MSA) decision not to finance an upcoming MIRC event and promised to ask the Regents this week to suspend the Assembly's fune-ing capacities once again. "It's pretty obvious if you don't meet their ideological qualifications, you don't get their money," , MIRC president Lawrence Lichtman said during last night's MSA meeting when the decision was made. The Republican student group asked MSA for $1,400 in order to sponsor an open house scheduled for tomorrow, and a visit by Michigan Lt. Governor James Brickley scheduled for Novem- ber 27. MSA agreed to allocate $82 for the Brickley visit, but declined to fund the other event. "BASICALLY, we do not feel we should be- funding a strictly social event, said MSA Budget Priorities Committee (BPC) Coordinator Alan Abrahams. "MIRC listed its two biggest expenses as refreshments and a disc jockey." Lichtman said Abrahams "distor- ted" what his group said in defense of the event at a BPC hearing last week. "At the hearing we did not emphasize that this will be merely a social event. We felt the mixer could be a mechanism by which we could provide members and guests with information about MIRC and the Republican Party presidential candidates. "Our main focus is to provide infor- mation and BPC knew that based on the information we gave them," said Lichtman.f The MIRC president said his disap- pointment was based not only on his group's "solid record" but the fact that MSA has allocated much larger sums to, other student organizations, many of which are not recognized by the Assembly. "[F THEY decide to give us this pit- tance," Lichtman said, "we will go to the Regents and recommend that all funding capabilities be taken out of the hands of MSA." In other action, the Assembly pledged to give campus radi o -station WCBN $4000 with the provision that the University's Office of Student Services match that amount. The radio station requested the funds in order to buy equipment to boost its wattage from 10 to 200 watts. A recent Federal Communications Commission ruling eliminated a ban on encroachment by larger wattage radio stdtions on its weaker competitors. WCBN general managr Ann Rebentisch said the station faces elimination from the airwaves in the future unless the equipment is purchased. IN LATE ACTION, MSA passed a resolution urging the United States government to treat Iranian students in the country with fairness and requested that thesIranian students holding the American embassy in Tehran recon- sider their recent tactics and release the 98 hostages they have held since last, week. Assembly member Kathy Machle said the resolution would be forwarded to the U.S. State Department and the American Embassy in Iran. U.S. Attorney General Benjamin Civiletti yesterday formally ordered Iranian students in the United States to give proof within 30 days that they are full-time students as required by law or face-possible deportation. Preparing to respond to Civiletti's order, the director of the University's International Center Jon Heise met with the Detroit office of Immigration and Naturalization Service (INS) yesterday. The University has more Iranian students than any other college or university in the state. ACCORDING TO Heise, INS will send four to five officers to the University before mid-December to interview each of the approximately 250 degree- seeking Iranian students on campus. Also yesterday, Acting , Vice- President for Academic Affairs Alfred Sussman requested that everyone at the University "exercise patience and restraint" in response to the current situation in Iran. "First of all, I'm proud of the cam- pus," Sussman said. "What has hap- pened elsewhere has not happened here. I think that suggests the sophistication of the University in seeing that we conduct ourselves in a fashion which is not xenophobic." HE SAID he was concerned that there "might be some undercurrents of strong feeling that might be hurtful." He said he will speak to University deans today about the situation. The deans will inform faculty and students of the University's concern to avoid trouble.

Ronald Reagan, saying the nation "hungers for a spiritual revival," yesterday declared his can- didacy for the 1980 Republican presidential nomination. Reagan, in his third bid for the presidency, entered the crowded GOP race as the acknowledged front-runner IN A TAPED and televised speech in which he. declared' his candidacy, Reagan repated his controversial 1976 proposal to shift some functions of government away from Washington to state and local authorities. ". I shall regard my 'election as proof that the people of the United States have decided to set a new agenda and have recognized that the human spirit thrives best when goals are set and progress can be measured in their achievement," he said. Reagan, a 68-year-old former movie star, was the 10th man to declare his candidacy for the 1980 GOP nomination. HIS 30 MINUTE announcement speech was taped on Monday and broadcast last night to millions. Simultaneously, Reagan took the podium to deliver the same speech in person to a $500 a ticket Republican rund-raiser at the New York Hilton. In his speech, Reagan articulated a number of often-heard Republican themes, and he repeated his 1976 proposal for a transfer of some gover- nment functions. "We must review the functions of the federal government to determine which of those are closer to the people. The, federal government has taken on fun- ctions it never was intended to perform and which it does not perform well," Reagan said. By CHARLES THOMSON In a move which one Washtenaw County Coalition Against Apartheid .(WCCAA) member termed a shift in the group's publicity tactics, WCCAA is running four candidates for election to the Literature, Science and Arts Student Government (LSA-SG) Executive Council. Noted for its disruption of a Regents meeting last spring, the WCCAA has opposed University investments in companies which do business in South Africa through many demonstrations a'nd protests. TTHE PURPOSE of WCCAA's un- precedented election involvement is to "use the election to publicize the WC- CAA and its goals," according to one of the party's candidates, Barbara Lacker. "I'm really running for the party," Lacker said. "If I win, I'll probably stay on. but that's not what I'm running for. I'm running for the good of the coalition." Other coalition candidates for LSA- SG are Matt Frumin, Phillip Harper, and Phillip Kwik. ACCORDING TO Heidi Gottfried, a member of the WCCAA steering com- LSA-SG elections mittee and organizer of the group's election participation, the WCCAA -in- volvement does not mean the organization is resigning from its ac- tivist role. "It just means you'll see the coalition on many fronts," she said. "You'll see us on the streets again when it gets warmer." Kwik said the reason he's running is See WCCAA, Page 10 Daily Photo by PAUL ENGSTROM No, it's not Sari Francisco during an earthquake.

Dorner said Ann Arbor Bank and Trust pays for the space used in the University buildings, but would be willing to share. Spokespersons for National Bank and Trust and Huron Valley National Bank said their institutions do not intend to change over to allow customers to use the three money machines.
