The Michigan Daily-Thursday, March 29, 1978-Page 3 MSA committee to monitor'U' Cellar talks ] I 77. r !1 .! f ' 5DN .Y ' F YOU SEE W OPEN C/11.i. By RON GIFFORD In an effort to increase discussion between the University Cellar Board of Directors and the Cellar employees, the Michigan Student Assembly (MSA) passed a resolution Tuesday night directing its Cellar ad hoc committee to oversee the talks between the two sides. In its resolution, MSA said it believed the board should have discussions with the employees' union, "carried out soon in good faith." The in- tent of the resolution was "to force the board to have full-blown discussions with the employees just short of negotiations," according to MSA and ad hoc committee member Jim Sullivan. . THE BOARD has wanted to im- plement a new managerial structure at the store and employees objected to the new plan. They felt it would destroy their input into the store decision- making process, and believed that the structure was an issue to be negotiated during their current contract talks. Both the board and the management of the store have so far refused to include that issue into the negotiations. MSA, which apppoints the six student members of the board, had established a committee to consider the possibility of forcing the appointed students to in- clude the structure into the contract talks. The committee's resolution, according' to Sullivan, did not give the board a mandate but rather set a policy statement the board should follow. He said the committee would pressure each side, especially the board, to seriously discuss the issue in good faith. "The union is ready to carry out discussions on the managerial struc- ture, and we want the board to discuss it, rather than just accept input on this issue," he said. THE ASSEMBLY is taking this ac- tion because "there had been concern that the board was playing delaying games until school was out," Sullivan added. "Then, there would be no MSA, just a steering committee, and the board could not be mandated to take any action," he said. The communications between the board, management, and the em- ployees have been "pathetic," Sullivan said, and the committee would monitor the talks to make sure the discussion took place. "If they (the board mem- bers) don't talk with the employees, then we will step in and force them to," he added. Sullivan was not really pleased with MSA's action. "This is a place where the students can control the situation, but we're backing away from it. The Assembly is not responding to the issue," he said. MSA is also considering placing Cellar employees on the board, in an ex- officio position. This proposal will be discussed at next week's meeting, Sullivan said. Currently the board is composed of six student appointees, three faculty members, and a Univer- sity administrator. New Honors director Philosophy Prof. Jack Meiland is the new LSA Honors Program director. Meiland, chairman -of his department's Committee on Graduate Studies, succeeds Prof. Otto Graf, who is retiring after 18 years as Honors director. Part of the plan When DAn Fogelberg concert tickets went on sale yesterday morning at the Union box office, sophomore nursing students Lori Lane and Jan Kromer were antsier than most. The dedicated fans had waited in line for 25 hours and even rented a Union hotel room to avoid being removed from the lobby for loitering. A Union desk clerk was unsure of how many Fogelberg fanatics rented rooms because "we don't ask people why they happen to rent rooms."

The Soviet statement proposed that officials of both powers should "resume in the nearest consultations that were started in Peking in 1964." Three clashes earlier that month had led observers to fear larger conflicts. Happenings FILMS A-V Services-The Curb Between Us, Aud., 12:10p.m., SPH II. Ann Arbor Film Co-op-The Fury, 7, 9p.m., Aud.

California dream in' Although state courts foiled their previous attemps. to scrap marijuana laws, the good citizens of Berkeley, Cal. think they have devised a foolproof method of nullifying the laws' effect, according to the Daily Californian. An initiative on next month's election ballot calls for withholding payment from police officers who enforce marijuana laws. "To the xtent that Berkeley police are enforcing the laws against marijuana, the people of Berkeley have less protection from major crimes such as rape and murder," explained campaign leader Steven Bloom. Initiative backers have also retained a mascot, dubbed "Mescalito," to fill their campaign coffers. Mescalito dresses up as a peyote button and sells raffle tickets to benefit the drive. In selecting a prize for the raffle, the campaigners apparently decided to cater to the interests of their likely supporters. First prize is a kilogram of a "lealfy green subsance of Colombian origin."

The seven-mancabinet instructed the Foreign Ministrey to prepare a report for parliament formally recommending that Switzerland enter the world body, and setting out the implications and procedures involved. A government spokesman said the report was expected to be ready some time next year. A date for a national referendum on the issue, obligatory un- der the Swiss constitution, would be fixed after both houses of the federal parliament had considered the report, he added. Concern for its traditional neutrality has been a major reason in the past why Switzerland has stayed out of the U.N.
