Several SACUA representatives also expressed dissatisfac- tion and disappointment with their informal dinner and annual meeting with the Regents last Thursday. SACUA selected the topics of faculty salaries, faculty grievance procedures, and the search for a vice president of academic affairs for discussion during their hour-and-a-half long meeting with the Regents. MORTON BROWN, a math professor and SACUA member said, "I thought the meeting wenty very poorly. To a large extent, it was just wasting time." Brown also said he thought the Regents acted con- descendingly toward the SACUA members. Regent David Laro (R-Flint), however, said last night that he felt the salary issue could have resulted ip more heated discussion, but blames the members of SACUA for the "bland" meeting. "They went out of their way to be nice, and they were so nice, they didn't really say what they meant," he said. Laro had encouraged the faculty representatives to be more vocal about their salary demands during the meeting, reminding them that they would not be able to maintain their standard of living with the current rate of inflation. Laro later said he would support tuition hikes to increase faculty salaries. No SACUA member, however, approached the Regents with this specific demand. ARCH NAYLOR, an engineering professor who chaired the meeting, said he vi wed the salary discussion as "a ritual that has to be gone through.'' He mentioned that it has been brought to the Regents' attention annually for the past three years. Some SACUA members said they didn't feel the meetng was useful because few new issues were See SACUA, Page 2 Brown ' .. . meeting a waste of time Iortriman ...

A Swiss airliner was waiting there to fly them to West Germany to join three others released yesterday. An ABC reporter in Tehran said the hostages-four women and six blacks-were driven out of the embassy gates in three cars. The students who had been holding them in the embassy since Nov. 4 put them on display at a news conference last night. THEY WERE LED before some 150 newspersons, mostly Western, surrounded by some 100 of the students who seized 62 Americans more than two weeks ago to demand the extradition of the ailing former shah back here for a revolutionary trial. The four women hugged and kissed the men after they were brought out of separate buildings, apparently because they had not seen each other since the students took over the embassy nov. 4. During the news conference at the embassy, the hostages sat under a ban- ner accusing President Carter of protecting "this national criminal," referring to the exiled shah, whom the militants want in exchange for the remaining 49 hostages. THE HOSTAGES appeared well and smiled as they answered questions. The men were clean shaven and all were neatly dressed. As in Sunday night's press conference with the first three freed hostages, the reporters, cameramen and photograhers were asked by the studen- ts to remain quiet and were given one question each, in turn. The student leaders first read a statement by revolutionary leader Ayatollah Ruhollah Khomeini, who supported the embassy occupation, ex- plaining why blacks and women were being freed. "Women are especially respected under Islam and blacks are being oppressed in the United States," the statement said. There are believed to be still around 50 Americans held hostage, including two women, and some 20 other foreigners. THE STATE Department released the names and hometowns of the 10 hostages whom Iranian authorities said may be released shortly. The women in the group were iden- tified as Elizabeth Montagne, Calumet City, Ill.; Terri Tedford, South San Francisco, Calif.; Joan Walsh, Ogden, Utah; and Lillian Johnson, Elmont, N.Y. The men were listed as David Walker, Waller, Texas; Lloyd Rollins, Alexandria, Va.; Wesley Williams, Albany, N.Y.; Neal Robinson, Houston; See MORE, Page 5 Carter:, Iran trial would break international law WASHINGTON (AP) - The Army said yesterday that 427 recruiters have been fired from their jobs in the worst recruiting scandal since the end of the draft six years ago. Reporting to Congress on a six-month investigation, officials said an estimated 12,700 soldiers had been enlisted , through fraud or other irregular procedures by recruiters sin- ce October 1977. THE ARMY is consulting with the commanding officers of the improperly enlisted soldiers to see if they want to keep them in the service, the officials told the Senate Armed Services man- power subcommittee. Sen. Sam Nunn (D-Ga.), chairman of the panel, said the Marines and the Navy apparently had a worse problem with recruiting malpractice than the Army, based on discrepancies in recruits' test results. Marine and Navy officials did not take part in yesterday's hearing. About 75 per cent of the Army cases involved false information about education records of potential recruits who had not graduated from high school, officials testified. Others in- volved illegal coaching for enlistment tests and concealment of police recor- ds, medical problems, and other infor- mation. BRIG. GEN. Donald Connelly, head of a 55-member investigative task for- ce, said there was a greater incidence of malpractice among seasoned recruiters than among newer ones. Three out of four recruiters relieved from their duties because of the in- vestigation had received a gold badge or other award for meeting enlistment goals, he testified. "The vast majority - over 90 per cent - of recruiters are not committing malpractice," Connelly said. Sen. Robert Morgan (D-N.C.) disputed Connelly, saying the "argument that most recruiters do not cheat is questionable. The fact is that many of them do, but the Army has only been able to catch part of them." MORGAN SAID recruiters "are being subjected to such enormous quota pressures from their superiors and threats to their career that they must resort to these tactics or be ruined for the rest of their Army careers.". 1 The special investigation, which is continuing, resulted in the removal from their jobs of 324 recruiters and supervisors in 41 of the Army's 57 recruiting. commands. Only five of- ficers were involved. In addition, 103 recruiters have been relieved. because of malpractice discovered in routine checks. NUNN NOTED the Army's in- vestigation was being carried out by of- ficers from the recruiting command. He questioned whether a self- examination could "come up with a fin- ding that the problem is not at the bot- tom (among enlisted men); it's at the top." He said a finding of fault among high- ranking officers would be "unpreceden- ted in the annals of military history." "I am saying someone independent of the direct chain of command needs to look at the broader question of pressure from the top," Nunn added. ARMY SECRETARY Clifford Alexander said most recruiters "respond well to the pressures that are part of the job." Alexander acknowledged that the Army, along with the other services, failed to meet its recruiting goals last year. He said the chief problem was that "we have failed to commit the resources necessary to make military service attractive in today's economic environment." Alexander said he strongly opposed a return to the draft and said that a $15 monthly pay increase for recruits - as contained in an amendment that died in the Senate recently - "may give some help. I could say that and that alone would not be enough." WASHINGTON (AP) - The Carter administration insisted yesterday that all remaining American hostages in Iran "must be released" and warned that putting any of them on' trial as spies would violAte international law. In a statement issued at the White House and the State Department, the administration said forcing the American hostages to stand trial wouild be a "violation of elementary human rights" and would heighten "worldwide outrage" caused by the seizure of the U.S. Embassy in Tehran. DESPITE THE tone of the U.S. statement, administration officials did not rule out some discussion with Iran at the United Natiohs or elsewhere, providing all 62 Americans captured in the embassy takeover are released. Some Iranian officials have suggested they would settle for an in- ternational tribunal to consider ac- cusations against the deposed Shah Mohammad Reza Pahlavi rather than his extradition from the United States, which has been demanded by the students who seized the embassy Nov. 4. Last week, the United States blocked U.N. consideration of Iranian claims against the shah, who is undergoing cancer treatment in a New York hospital. But Secretary of State Cyrus Vance has said that once the hostages are freed, the united States will not op- pose debate in the U.N. Security Coun- cil. "TO THAT extent, there is something that can flow" from the release of the hostages, said State Department spokesman Hodding Carter. However, spokesman Carter said: "We are agreeing on no precondition See CARTER,. Page 5 Physics of Music' mixes mechanics and melodies By JULIE SELBST If you're a mathematics major and play the oboe, Prof. G. Weinreich of the Physics Department may have just the course for you. Even if you don't know how to add and can't tell an oboe from a bassoon, you still might be interested in what Weinreichteaches in a course called "The Physics of Music." The course, offered every winter term, is an inquiry into the physical production of sound by various instruments. WHEN THE class was started five years ago, it was directed primarily at music students. But since then, it's reputation has spread with students from virtually every discipline electing to take the course. "We get everybody in here," said Weinreich. "There are no prerequisites, and we get people with all different backgrounds - music students, engineering students, graduates, undergraduates, people who have had only a high school math background, and physics majors. It's amazing the different interests we assembly in one classroom." The course's subject matter includes such topics as forces on oscillating systems, resonance, and the vibrating string. After these components of sound have been investigated, the course focuses on the workings of specific in- struments - brass, woodwinds, the violin family, the piano, and high See CLASS, Page 10 , qr I . : / N :: p'1 4.- ;I ,b k 'C,.

Fans rolled the vehicle over several times, pelted it with cans and bottles, then, after failing to get it through the door of a tavern, set it on fire. Why does Shook get kicks out of 'painting maize and blue ensigna on a car and watching it burn? He thought it would be "a funny thing to do." Q] Bullard's decisions Although state Rep.
