majority, he said.
ALLEN, SEEKING to pick up one of
only four seats Democrats have held on
Council since last year's election, said
the citizens of the First Ward "deserve
better representation" than they have
received from Latta. Allen claims that
Latta missed a total of 12 meetings
during his term in office.
Allen added if he is elected, his party
identification will be to his advantage.
"I'm sure that if we have a ReDublican

majority, I will have greater input on
behalf of the First Ward (than Latta).
The Council might be more receptive to
my suggestions."
Latta, 27, dismissed the charges of
absenteeism levelled against him as a
misrepresentation "thrown out because
it sounds good."
"I WASN'T always present at the
meetings precisely at 7:30. My op-
ponent merely looked at the front of the
minutes for the role call and never
looked into the body of the report."
Latta, a political science Ph.D. can-
didate at the University, raised the
conduct of the Republican majority as a
major concern for Ann Arbor residents.
"Mayor (Louis) Belcher and the
other Republicans are using an ad
campaign approach. They talk one way
to the students and another way to the
businessmen. They know that they
can't accomplish what they say they
will with reduced tax revenue. It's a lie
to claim that they can."
"It's clear that the administration
has failed in providing fairness, equity,
and legality," said Latta. "And they
want to add a Hood (Fourth Ward can-
didate E. Edward Hood) and a man
who uses a wanted poster (Allen) as his
campaign literature. Sometimes it's
almost too much to take."

Most also oppose mandatory funding,
saying a better alternative to a man-
datory fee would be a negative check-
off system. The candidates also are
against the internal funding ballot
question, which would provide salaries
for MSA officers.
On other issues, candidates said they
feel divestiture from South Africa
would be a tremendous financial bur-
den on students. "We think the majority
of blacks in South Africa would want us
to stay because of the loss of jobs if we
left," said Fantera,
THE CANDIDATES also oppose the
appointment of a student to the Univer-
sity Board of Regents unless he or she is
electedor appointed by Michigan's
governor. MIRC, along with the other
parties, favors a student lobbying
group in Lansing.
MIRC candidates said that no matter
how this year's elections turn out for
the new group, this won't be its last
year of involvement in student gover-
nment. However, MIRC president
Timothy Lee said, "We want to get
people elected (to MSA), but that's not
where the real interests of the club lie.
Our focal point is on politics -
Republican politics."

dicate the level of exposure ranges
from up to 20 millirems an hour at the
site to as much as seven millirems in
nearby towns. This is much less than
what a person gets in a chest X-ray.
"THERE IS NO danger to the
public," he said.
But nuclear critics attacked the com-
pany's no-danger posture. "Every dose
of radiation is an overdose,"'said Nobel
biologist George Wald, professor
emeritus at Harvard University, at an
anti-nuclear conference. "A little
radiation does a little harm and more of
it does more harm."
Sternglass said, "The reaction of the
community should be to stand up and
scream. Risk for pregnant women and
young children is significantly in-
creased.
"It's not a disaster here people are
going tofall down like flies. It's a creep-
ing thing."

than 100,000 gallons of radioactive
water. This melted about one per cent
of the metal cladding that protects the
uranium pellets and contaminated the
reactor building.
Walter Creitz, president of
Metropolitan Edison, said, "as long as
man makes equipment nothing is ab-
solutely safe."
Conflicting reports, from the com-
pany and from the Nuclear Regulatory
Commission which supervises safety
.and operation at America's 72 atomic
power plants, gave distorted pictures
over whether the radiation escape was
the result of equipment or human
malfunction.
"I WOULDN'T say that in operator
did shut down one of the core cooliqg
systems after the valve failure, or a
particular component and that in turn
caused the fuel element failure and the
fuel damage," Herbein said. "A com-
plex set of circumstances were in-
volved.
"I'm not ruling out human error.
That is a possibility."
