INFO (764-0450) Carter puts freeze on Iranian assets in U.S. TO START WORK IN JANUARY: Sprenkel accepts city position k (Continued from Page 1) employees as hostages showed no sign o easing their stand-that the captives will not be freed until Shah Mohammad Reza Pahlavi is returned to Iran to stand trial for his life. The shah is un- dergoing treatment for cancer in a New York hospital. They declared that any attempt to compromise on their "great divine move" directed by Ayatollah Ruhollah Khomeini "is strongly denounced by us and would be deemed treason," Tehran Radio reported. THIS MAY HAVE been aimed at of- ficial Iranian statements Tuesday in- dicating the hostages might be freed before the return of the shah, if certain other conditions were met. The United States rebuffed the offer, saying there' would be no negotiations while the hostages were held. State Department officials said last night they were recalling special en- voys Ramsey Clark, former attorney general, and Senate aide William Miller, who were stalled in Istanbul for a week because Iranian leaders would not see them. President Carter's action to 'impose the freeze also marked another big step toward what one Treasury Department official called "economic and political warfa. e" instigated by the Iranians. WHILE IRAN said its assets in the United States totalled about $12 billion, Treasury Secretary G. William Miller said the actual total is less than $6 billion. Freezing the assets means the Iranian government can't spend it without U.S. government permission. For example, U.S. banks have out- standing loans totalling $2.5 billion to Iran, according to Georgel Salem, a Wall Street banking analyst with Bach Halsey Stuart Shields. He said the loans are concentrated among the 10 largest U.S. banks, led by Bank of America, Citibank, and Chase Manhattan. The freeze also means that the 50,000 Iranian students currently in the United States might be unable to receive mon- thly stipends from the Iranian gover- nment. (Continued from Page 1) solid waste shredding facility-similar to the shredder proposed for Ann Arbor. BECAUSE OF his experience with solid waste and resource recovery systems, one of Sprenkel's first priorities' will be to develop with Council a solid waste management program for Ann Arbor, Belcher said. A shredder, a refuse-derived fuel system, and a recycling program will be considered. Before he became Ames' city manager four years ago, Sprenkel was city manager of South Windsor, Connecticut for 14 years. He also supervised Belfast, Maine between 1958.and 1962. Council interviewed Sprenkel and five other candidates on Saturday. The finalists were selected from more than 60 applicants by Korn- Ferry Internationl, a Los Angeles- based executive search firm. COUNCILMAN David Fisher (R- Fourth Ward). said yesterday he went to Ames Monday without the mayor's knowledge to investigate the Ames shredder and find out "what kind of town Ames was." Fisher said he also went to Iowa City and Wheaton, Illinois, the towns of two other candidates. Upon his return, he told the mayor about his trip, Fisher said. Fisher said he posed as a prospec- tive resident of Ames while talking to people there because he "didn't want to endanger his (Sprenkel's) employment position." 'I thoughit it was sone- do1 for iie citv. -Darid Fisher, Fourth Ward Con icili memiber "I thought it was something I could and should do for the city," Fisher said. He said he didn't think Council should choose a candidate for the city's top administrative job on the basis of one 50-minute inter- view. "I WAS SURPRISED and very pleased" to see Fisher on Monday, Sprenkel said. They chatted for a few minutes and discussed the shredder, he added. Ann Arbor's City Administrator is the connection between the mayor and Council and 17 city departmen- ts, including Utilities, Solid Waste, Police and Fire. The administrator also supervises the city clerk, assessor, treasurer, controller and two assistant administrators. According to a job profile com- piled by Council, the administrator is supposed to suggest goals and programs to Council in addition to following up on Council questions and orders. ONE OF THE administrator's biggest responsibilities is for- mulating the city's budget. Belcher said he expects Sprenkel to continue the plan to convert tht city budget to a "zero base budgeting" system, a concept Sprenkel worked with in Ames. Sprenkel said he "had a budget to put together" in Ames before moving to Ann Arbor in January. While he was concerned about the fate of Iowa State in the match on Saturday against Nebraska, Sprenkel declined to predict the winner of the Michigan-Ohio State game. 4i he Ann Arbfor Fil C00opertie Presents at Aud.

In this distinguished psychodrama, an American (ELLIOT GOULD) strains the marriage of a Swedish couple (BIBI ANDERSSON, MAX VON SYDOW). Andersson gives an exquisite performance as the wife and makes this one of Bergman's most complex and unsettling works. "The Touch is the best about love he has ever made. The film is full of acting moments that are physically miraculous, like a brilliant fish drawn up on a line."=Penelorp Gilliatt.

The patient receives only an X-ray strength dose of radiation. THE DEVICE, called a computerized tomographic scanner, or CT scanner for short, is currently used by Univer- sity Hospital physicians to diagnose heart disease. In principle it is similar to a device the hospital will soon build and use for research, thanks to a $7.87 million federal grant - one of the largest ever received for a University project - recently awarded to three University medical researchers. Computerized scanning techniques have been hailed as a medical breakthrough similar in importance to the development of the X-ray. The scanning techniques are products of the' mid-seventies. THE RESEARCHERS won the Nobel Prize for medicine this year for developing the computer techniques ENDS "LIFE OF BRIAN" TONITE 63,820 01 ANN ARBOR - Formerly Fifth Forum Theater STARTS TOMORROW! Guess Who's Back? and a radioactive tracer suitable for use in the human brain was not developed until 1977. Interin University President Allan Smith and Hospital officials yesterday announced the award of the grant at t press conference at the hospital., THE $7.87 million grant, with $2.5 million added by the University, will buy a more sensitive, advanced scan- ner than the one described above and a medicalcyclotron. The advanced equipment will measure energy given off by radioac- tive tracers as they are processed in the brain, 'providing researchers with a means to observe the brain as it works. University researchers hope the new scanner will help them gain insights in- to the abnormal brain activity that lies behind diseases such as epilepsy, stroke, multiple sclerosis, cerebral palsy and Huntington's disease. BUT THE SCANNER is a research tool, not a device to treat patients. Hospital officials and doctors said yesterday it may be ten, years before the technique can be used routinely to diagnose disease. The federal grant was awarded to three University nuclear medicine researchers: Drs. William Bieirwaltes, Bernard Agranoff and Sid Gilman. U.S. Rep. Carl Pursell (R- Plymouth), from his seat on the house Health, Education and Welfare sub- committee, is helping to usher the grant money through Congress. The University is one of seven in the nation receiving a grant for advanced computer scanning study from the National Institute of Neurological and Communicative Disorders and Stroke, one of the several National Institutes of Health (NIH). THE NEW scanner will use a technique called Positron Emission Tomography (PET). As opposed to the CT scanner shown off yesterday at University Hospital, the PET scanner measures radioac- tivity from forms of some of the major organic molecules, such as carbon, ammonia, or oxygen. The molecules have half lives of less than an hour and a half. "The problem with our conventional molecules (used in research) today, is that you have to take that conventional molecule and add a foreign (radioac- tive) molecule to that," explained Dr. John Keyes, a University specialist in internal medicine and radiology who will manage the operation of the new scanner. KEYES SAID that the brain would not absorb the molecules used at present, and so the scanning technique could not be used in the small capillaries of the brain. The PET scanner that the University will acquire will be used in five separate research projects. One project, for example, will study the "very intense neural activity of the brain" during an epileptic seizure, ac- cording to researcher Dr. Kenneth Kooi. Kooi said the PET scanner will show the amount and type of chemicals processed in the brain during an epilep- tic seizure and allow the researcher to see a 'map' of neural activity. f . A i 7 ,y.

"This rivalry," said his son, "is just a fun thing for this town to bicker over. You have your Michigan fanatics here, and your Ohio State fanatics." THIS IS A red-hot rivalry that boils over every year at this time," said. Sharon Taylor, who owns the Archbold Buckeye with her husband. ".But there's never been this organized con- fusion before." Last night at the Wauseon Motor Co., nine miles north-of Go Bucks, Go Blue, celebrants kicked off the activities by welcoming Miss Michigan to Ohio. She was joined by Miss Ohio and the two gave short speeches to an audience of over 100. The Michigan cheerleaders and pom-pom girls performed, along with the 25-member Wauseon High School Pep Band. In addition, the mayors of Wauseon and Archbold both spoke, expressing enthusiasm for what they hope will be an annual tradition. To conclude the ceremony, Lovejoy made the offijial proclamation to "" JOH N BEL HI ity 668-64-16 J N..z NATIONAL LAMP@@rS ,THUR 7 & 9 -3-5-7-9_M W AL Fri6:00,8:00, 10:00 Fri-Adults $1.50 til id 6:30 (or capacity) 3ItioCw 434-1782 Sat-Sun 1:50.3:50, 6:00, 8:00,10:00 /Sat-Sun Adults $1 .50 3 WEDNESDAYl (or capacity) THAT-A-WAY 1-4:15-7:30 HOBO 2:40-5:55-9:10 'MIDNITE SHOWS1 THIS FRI & SAT ONLY! change the city's name to Go Bucks, Go Blue. NINE MILES away, at the newly- named village of Go Bucks, Go Blue, about 200 people lined the main street for a parade. At the ceremony which followed, Mayor Lovejoy presented village keys to Miss Ohio and Miss Michigan. The Michigan cheerleaders and pom-pom girls led cheers for the local residents, and the Wauseon High School Pep Band played several num- bers. The crowd was composed mostly of youngsters and their parents. "It's all really a big promotion put on by the local radio station," said Jack Stover, one of five owners of the Wauseon Motor Company. The station, WHFD, is sponsoring the activities. Manager Max Smith said that it was the "spirit" in Go Bucks, Go Blue that brought on the changing of its name. "YOU SEE the spirit everywhere," he said. "It's a real special thing." Jack Stover explained that this idea had been considered before, but "This is the first time Max Smith ever gotthe merchants behind him." Some of the town's merchants said that business has not improved yet, but they expected an influx of customers later in the week. "This celebration is a good idea," said Tom Mafziger, owner of the True Value hardware store. "I'm looking forward to having more business." But some of the people in Archbold, were unaware of the town activities. "A PARADE?" asked one puzzled passerby. "When's that supposed to be?" The town celebration began about six years ago, according to Taylor. She said a local physician used to fly his U- M flag over his back porch the day of the big game. Several other Michigan alumni joined him. Soon, the OSU fans demonstrated their affections for their team by flying their flags. "Soon," explained Taylor, "the flags 'came" out earlier and were left out later." ICKEY'S TAVERN is the village cen- ter for the friendly U of M-OSU rivalry. An eight-foot-long Ohio State banner graces the wall above the counter, while pictures of former Ohio State and Michigan players hang from the walls. "This is all a lot of fun," said owner "Bummer" Dominique, the 1971 graduate of Ohio State. The festivities at Ickey's started in 1975 when, the day of the OSU-U-M, game, a coffin with a picture of Archie, Griffin in it appeared atop the bar coun- ter. "That night, the people piled in, dan- ced on the tables, and had a real good- time," he said. Dominque said the spirited com- petition between the two groups of fans goes on "52 weeks a year.
