Officials laud
Fleming at
testimonial

BY BRIAN BLANCHARD
A storm kept away two scheduled
speakers and two regents, and an unex-
pected meeting with the Pope in Santo
Domingo absented the governor.
But that didn't stop the final tribute
last night to 11-year University
President Robben Fleming and his
wife, Sally, from producing the fit-to-
be-carved-in-granite praise called for
by the occasion.
With constant reference to Fleming's
cool handling of "the turbulent sixties"
as well as his careful budgeting and eye
for quality during current financial
problems, the speakers at the banquet
in the League Ballroom told a group of
close to 400 what they thought best
about Fleming's approach to Univer-
sity management.
THE EX-WRESIDENT and his wife
returned to Ann Arbor for the banquet
from their new Washington, D.C. home.
Fleming is now president of the Cor-
poration for Public Broadcasting in
Washington.
Regent Deane Baker (R-Ann Arbor)
read a prepared speech from Gov.
William Milliken praising Fleming's
ability to lead calm debate and en-
courage quality in education.
"The excellence of the University is a
reflection of the quality of your leader-
ship," the governor had written.

A tiny group of students gathered
last night to conduct a wide-ranging
discussion of the University's needs as
partlof the selection process of the next
University president.
The 11 people who attended the
student presdiential search commit-
tee's open forum barely outnumbered
the seven committee members present.
Among the few who turned up were City
Councilman Ken Latta (D-First Ward),
Political Science professor David
Singer, and Michigan Student Assem-

bly (MSA) member Joseph Pelava.
THE THREE dominated discussion
before a largely passive student
audience which sought more infor-
mation than it offered.
Presidential search committee
members said they were disappointed
at the small turnout. Committee mem-
ber Carolyn Rosenberg noted that bad
weather and little publicity may have
kept students away, but acknowledged
student apathy towards the selection
process.
"Face it, the assignment that's due

tomorrow is more important than a
president who may not be a president
until they've graduated," Rosenberg
said.
'Committee member Bridget Scholl
stressed the search panel had received
private suggestions from a number of
people. She said, the group would also
send letters to student organizations
requesting more advice on the Univer-
sity's needs.

Fed cuts won't hurt A2

By ELISA ISAACSON
Despite President Carter's proposed 1980 budget, which
trims funds for social services, jobs, and other urban
assistance programs, Ann Arbor officials say they are not
greatly concerned with the local impact of the proposal.
Carter's plan includes a cutback nationwide of some 7,000
jobs in the Comprehensive Employment and Training Act
(CETA) program.
Mayor Louis Belcher said the president's budget cuts
"probably won't have a large effect on the city at all, since
Ann Arbor traditionally hasn't used federal programs to a
great extent." He added, however, that under the new
guidelines, the city would not be able to supplement the

salaries of CETA employees to the extent it has previously.
BELCHER, CITY ADMINISTRATOR Sylvester Murray,
and local CETA coordinators will be meeting during the next
few weeks to determine the exact effect of the cuts on the
city's programs. Yesterday, Murray pointed out what he said
were three drawbacks in the new CETA regulations. With the
reduction in the amount of money the city is allowed to give
an employee, Ann Arbor will no longer be able to hire CETA
workers for such positions as police officer.
Another factor reducing the pool of potential CETA em-
ployees wpuld be the proposed rule that workers must be both
on welfare and unemployed. The proposed guidelines also

recommend as permanent successor to
Robben Fleming.
Singer offered a strategy of deter-
mining the type of president the com-
mittee would not want, in order to
"head off some potential
catastrophes."
Singer said the student advisory
group should reject a president who
would be only "a business manager"
and one "who wants to make the
University even more of a service
station for American industry."

Exiled Khomeini will
delay return to Iran

TEHRAN, Iran (AP)-Self-exiled
religious leader Ayatullah Ruhollah
Khomeini has agreed to delay his
return to Iran for three weeks at the
request of Prime Minister Shahpour
Bakhtiar, a high government source
said early today.
Khameini had planned to end his 14-
year exile and return to Tehran from
Paris tomorrow to begin efforts to
replace the Bakhtiar government with
an Islamic republic, his aides in France
said Wednesday.
THE GOVERNMENT source, who
asked not to be identified, said the need
for special security for Khomeini's
arrival and protection here led
Bakhtiar to suggest that he delay his
arrival for at least three weeks.
The source said several million
Iranians could be expected to greet
Khomeini, who led the uprising that
drove Shah Mohammad Reva Pahlavi
from the country, upon his arrival in
Tehran. "The crowd alone would have
been too dangerous and too difficult to
handle," he said.
It was early morning in Paris and

miliary order.

Observers saw the move as an effort
to bar Khomeini's return. However,
Gen. Mehdi Rhimi, Tehran's military
governor, made no mention of
Khomeini in his announcement shutting
down the airports, according to a
Tehran Radio broadcast monitored in
London.
RHIMI SAID the closures were or-
dered because of strikes by flight con-
trol workers, according to Tehran
Radio. Rhimi also was quoted as saying
the three-day closure was ordered
because of the "failure" of certain
companies to operate flights.
Companies named in the broadcast
were the German and French airlines,
Lufthansa and'Air France.
ONE POSSIBLE explanation for the
short-lived airport closure was that
