Mail-or-bring-in-person-to-420- By KEVIN ROSEBOROUGH The Michigan State Senate approved its first bill of the legislative session yesterday granting the Michigan Em- ployment Relations Commission (MERC) jurisdiction to conduct a union representation election for state police troopers. The measure, passed by .a 25-9 margin,, was vetoed last year by Be a Part of the Big'U'- Join The Daily! Governor William Milliken. The bill is the legislative implementation of the new collective bargaining rights gran- ted state troopers with the passage of Proposal G last November.. Proposition G is a constitutional amendment giving state troopers the same bargaining rights as local police. The troopers add that the statute removes them from civil service jurisdiction, with the exception of promotions.I Milliken, however, claims that the legislature has no authority under the Mic r ofilm books at 'U By WILLIAM THOMPSON In the near future, anyone wishing to read a rare book from a University library will be forced to read a microfilm substitute instead. University libraries have begun using microfilm copies of rare or fragile works in order to offset the collections' deterioration, said Jim Craven, University book conservator. These books are published on a more acidic variety. of paper and deteriorate rapidly with heavy use. Some of these 9i elecetion state constitution to pass laws regulating any terms of civil service employment, including those of state police troopers. The governor says the state Civil Service Department should handle the union representation election, as well as any grievance proceedings or other union business. MIlliken is expected to veto the Senate bill again. Should this be the case, the full exercise of the state troopers' newly-won bargaining rights will be delayed indefinitely.

[ i° T' libraries books fall apart after only 25 years of use, Craven said. "WE ARE waiting for some kind of technical advance that will allow us to de-acidify a great quantity of books," Craven said. "Until it comes along, there are some things you can do with storage such as temperature and humidity control." Preserving' processes have been developed, but sipposedly they are too expensive, library officials said. "These processes are prohibitive when you become involved with tle number of books such as we have at the University," Craven said. ONE OF the major causes of book deterioration is exposure to humidity, dust and air pollution. To combat these forces, University library personnel are tryinlg to create favorable and con- sistent environments. "Some divisional libraries need new buildings," said library official Robprt Starring. "Some old buildings don't have air handling systems and the collection suffers more when you have fluctuation in temperlature." "We're fortunate that Ann Arbor is not highly industrialized," he added. "We don't have the problems (with pollution) that some urban research libraries have." HOWEVER, according to Craven, a Major threat to books are people. Despite environmental threats to books published on acidic paper, the publishing industry has yet to adapt more durable, acid-free paper, Starring -said. "Commercial publishers are still not persuaded to go to acid-free papet" he said. ."t would lie a. great boon, but they (the publishers) sayit would hav to be cost effective.'

Even when most people considered the struggle against polio hopeless, the people who worked in medical reseatch believed they would someday find the answer. The same was true for tuberculosis. And for smallpox. The same is true for cancer now. We know because we hear from people doing medical research in laboratories all over the country. They talk to us because they all need support. They are all excited because they all think they're on the right track. And that the work they're doing will unlock a secret and lead to a solution for cancer. And you know what?
