However, it was a little blue about the green idea, pointing out that the downtown business community would probably not go along with it. Would this dampen our spirits, force us to resign our convictions, give up on the whole concept with only 19 days to go before the green floods our streets and the beer flows ceaselessly? Naaw. It's still going on, and you can get involved by calling Brian at 668-8031. Clarification Accompanying an article in last Thursday's Daily on the language proficiency of teaching assistants from non-English speaking coun- tres, we ran a photograph of Math TA Ali Ozluck from Turkey with a student. The picture was not intended to question Ozluck's ability to communicate with students. We apologize for any difficulties we may have caused him or for the Math Department. Take ten On Feb. 27, 1969, former California governor Ronald Reagan called for ia federal investigation into campus disorders. But other gover- nors, assembled for a national conference, declied to back his proposal to examine the possibility of a conspiracy in disruptive campus protests. Instead, the group passed a statement stating that "lawless acts by.a small segment of the student population must not be allowed to interfere with the vast numbers of students who are seeking to exer- cise their educational opportunities.

News comes from Cam- bridge that there's one more reason to be envious of our Eastern peers-Football strategy for credit. Twenty Harvard undergrads have enrolled in a half-credit course on the football team's "multi-flex" of- fensive system, taught by Lawrence Brown, the quarterback of the team. _"ten thousand out of the 40,000 people at the Harvard Yale game don't know what'd going on," Brown was quoted as saying in the Harvard Crigison. "I'm trying to teach people enough so that the next time they go to a game, or watch a game on T.V. at home, they'll un- derstand the fundamentals." How about an "Option Offense 101", Mr. Leach? Playboy at Penn Porn connoisseurs who were disappointed with the University's representatives in Playboy's "Girls of the Big Ten" spread should see what the University of Pennsylvania has to offer. Photographer David Chan was recruiting models for a spread on "The Girls of the Ivy League".when three Penn students came to his hotel headquarters to volunteer. Although they brought Chan a gift of a dozAh roses, Chan could.not be persuaded to put Henry Hamrock, Steve Schwartzberg, and Joe Fillip in the spread. "We're photographing 'Girls of the Ivy League'," heexplained, "not 'Animal House.'" Boon for booze Laws don't always have the effects they're intended to have. An example is a measure requiring Utah liquor outlets to post a warning against alcoholic beverages, which has boosted sales in booze. A message has to be posted: "Warning. The consumption of alcoholic beverages purghased in this establishment may be hazardous to your health and the safety of others." The signs went up, and so did liquor sales - seven per cent by case sales and 11.1 per cent by dollar volume. One theory holds that some persons buy liquor precisely because of the signs, not knowing other- wise that theestablishment sold it. .

Edmund Brown Jr., chief executive of the nation's most populous state and a leading advocate of a budget-balancing amendment, ran into strong opposition from other governors as well as from members of Congress. Gov. James Thompson of Illinois called the idea of a budget amendment "somewhat simplistic" and said he was more concerned about threats to cut revenue sharing. "Why are some in the administration and Congress singling out general revenue sharing as a target for cuts in spending," Thompson asked. ECHOING SIMILAR concern, Gov. Thomas Judge of Montana said, "A lot of people on the Hill feel they're going to retaliate against the governors." Judge and Thompson obviously were upset by statements from members of Congress - including the chairman of the Senate Budget Cnmittee, Sen. Edmund Muskie D-Maine) House Speaker Thomas O'Neill ,Jr. (D-Mass.), and Sen. Lloyd Bentsen ti-Texas) - who had suggested that the $2.3 billion in block grants sent to the states an- nually under revenue sharing might be the first area cut to achieve a balanced budget. "Revenue sharingf unds are the only federal monies states and cities can use as they see fit." said T'hompson. He urged Congress and the administration to reduce the nunher of federal aid programs targeted to spcific projects and to require strict adherence to federal guidel ines and regulations. THOMPSON SAI there now are 492 different federal aid programs -- "492 different spools of federal red tape and rigamarole." He said the number of such programs hasincreased by 50 the past three years. L Brown said a constitutional A L L requirement for a balanced federal budget would enable Congress and the executive branch to resist spending pressures from special interest groups. However, Thompson said an amen- dment would only reduce the money available and intensify the competition for it.
