Same old story
By BOB MILLER
If Michigan had to lose the 1979 Rose Bowl, it might as
well have been to the number one team in the country. But
the questions after the game were, did Michigan really lose,
nd is Southern Cal really No. 1?
In the spirit of diplomacy, the answers are yes and no on
ath counts.
AS FAR AS THE final score, the records, and the results
concerned, it will forever stand at USC 17, Michigan 10.
1, there will be people who contend that Charles White
abled at the goal line and that this cost Michigan the
ime.
Bo Schembechler is one of those people. He said, after
wing the replay of the fumble-non-fumble touchdown, that
game plan changed to try to get the Wolverines back in
contest.
aAt that point the score was 14-3. Rick Leach opened up the
offense by passing and was intercepted. A pa

TEHRAN, Iran - Three of Shah
Mohammed Reza Pahlavi's top har-
dline generals have resigned on the eve
of Iran's transition to civilian rule, well
informed diplomats said yesterday.
The report came as troops fired on
anti-shah demonstrators in Tehran and
Shiraz and airliners carrying foreign
and Iranian evacuees took off without
radar assistance from -Tehran's airport
where military experts substituted for
striking civilian controllers.
THE CARTER administration,
meanwhile, upset by a bloody anti-shah
demonstration by Iranian students in
California, promised yesterday to
deport any foreign student who takes
part in illegal violence in the U.S.
The warning was made by Attorney
General Griffin Bell one day after he
was instructed by Carter to review
possible steps the government might
take.
The attorney general said he was
studying "our legal options" that could
lead to revocation of student visas for
the Iranians. "Any other visitor to our
country who is here to obtain an
education and resorts to violence con-
trary to the law should be on notice that
we will initiate appropriate legal
proceedings to see that their stay in the
United States is ended," he said.]
BELL'S STERN warning, Carter's
order, and complaints from Congress
members, were all prompted by an an-
ti-shah demonstration in Beverly Hills,
Calif., Tuesday, in which protestors
stormed the mansion where the shah's
sister and mothe are residing.
Diplomats ii Iran named the
resigning generals yesterday as Tehran
military commander Gen. Gholam Ali
Oveisi, army aviation commander Gen.
Manouchehr Khosrowdad,-and air force
commander Lt.-Gen. Amir Hossein
Rabii.
Reports that the three generals had
quit followed an official announcement
that the shah had appointed former
gendarmerie chief Gen. Abbas
Qrabaghi as chief of staff, by passing
Oveisi.
WESTERN DIPLOMATS said the
resignation of the three generals, if con-
firmed, would considerably improve
chances of avoiding a military coup.
Onediplomat described the three
generals as "the only ones who wanted
a real crackdown" pn anti-shah demon-
strators.

Heisted 'U' drugs found
A half-ton safe containing 52 vials of
& drugs used in experiments at the
University was found intact Dec. 28 at
the bottom of an 18-foot deep pit in the
Medical Science I building.
Stolen the previous weekend, the safe
was found by a University employee.
UNIVERSITY scientists had warned
that the drugs, including cocaine, mor-
phine, and some amphetamines, could
cause paralysis or death.
The experimental drugs had been
used in medical research projects with
monkeys who had been addicted to
morphine. The substances were being
tested to determine whether or not they
are addictive.

"We got everything we wanted and

the families of the four students killed.

It included a statement on behalf of
the defendants-Gov. James Rhodes

and saying that "the tragedy of May 4,

denying liability for the shootings.
The biggest part of the settlement,

Back home in Shaker Heights, just outside of
Cleveland, sophomore Beth Warren could liven up
her vacation with an occasional 3.2 beer. But upon
returning to Ann Arbor she found this state's new 21-
year-old drinking age law in force, having been
upheld in federal court.
Unable to legally consume even the mildest form of
alcohol here in Michigan, Warren announced, "I'm
going to turn to drugs."

Many students have devised strategies for eluding
the law, from drinking in the privacy of their rooms
or cars to manufacturing fake I.D.s. The incentive for
violating the law is even greater in this city, since if
caught consuming alcohol, 18-20-year-olds will be
subject only to a $5 fine, under an ordinance adopted
by City Council and effected December 27.
The city law, patterned after the $5 marijuana
penalty, is only slightly less stringent than a recently
enacted $25 state penalty which the governor signed

with alcohol will be issued a summons similar to a
parking ticket which can be paid through the mail.
Persons over 21 who buy liquor for their underaged
friends also will be given the $5 ticket.
The local ordinance specifically excludes 18-to-21-
year-old persons found with open cans or bottles int
cars, or with alcohol on high school grounds.
