ASSEMBLY PROPOSAL
New plan will restrict research at 'U'
(Continued from Page 1)
added to allow research that vas
clearly non-military - and yet
involved the use of a few classi-
fied facts-to continue at the
University. Such numbers have
included items such as the reso-
lutions of instruments, dial set-
tings, and the dates of military
rocket launchings.
"There has been an implica-
tion that the proposal substan-
tially waters down what we
passed before, but I don't see
where they drew that conclu-
sion," he adds. "The stipula-
tions were changes to carry out
the legislative intent of the as-
sembly."
Others, however, are not so
sure. They believe that the loop-
hole might prove larger than
Norman and the Assembly's Re-
search Policies Committee might
suspect.
To a large degree, the extent
of this loophole will be deter-
mined by the interpretation of
the provision by Classified Re-
search Committee. "I hope the
debate made it clear that this
was to be fairly narrowly inter-
preted," says assembly member
economics Prof. Frederic Scher-
er after yesterday's meeting.
While Scherer and others ex-
press reservations about possi-
ble loopholes, the general con-
census seems to be that the as-
sembly has produced a resolu-
tion that will cripple most war-
related research on nampus.
Their view stems from the
second section of the policy
stating that the University will
not enter into any research con-
tract "the clearly forseeable re-
sult or any specific purpose of
which is to destroy human life
or to incapacitate human be-
ings."
This restriction would elimi-
nate many present military re-
search projects on campus in-
volving target location with
sensors or radars where the rel-
atively direct consequences are
killing people.
While the exact interpretation
of this policy will also be left
to the Classified Research Com-
mittee, this wording will prob-
ably prevent any secret mili-
tary research that might be pos-
sible under loopholes in the
first section of the policy.
Further protections are con-
tained in the third and fourth
sections of policy which require
that the University be able to
disclose the identity of the spon-
sor of all research projects and
the purpose and scope of the
proposed research.
Several years ago the Univer-
sity was involved in a research
project in Southeast Asia that
was so sensitive that no infor-
mation about who was paying
for it or the work involved
could be released. These pro-
visions prevent such a situation.
Looking to the future, the plan
will go to the Regents at their
February meeting. They are
considered more likely to pass
the policy approved yesterday
than the assembly's earlier pro-
posal because it now covers all
University research.

"My students," Warner said,
"are doing reading and research.
The lectures (by Thomas and Bry-
ant) are just part of what they
are doing.''
Robinson, was less certain.
"The course," he said, has not
yet been mapped out in a per-
manent way. It's hard to say
whether it would violate the guide-
lines."
PESC members contacted last
night declined to comment on the
guidelines' overall implications.
saying the matter would require
further study before a statement
could be made.
PESC members did, however,
complain that they were not be-
ing adequately informed, by
Rhodes, of action being planned
by the college in regard to the
program.
The topic of Rhodes' statement,
according to one PESC member
will be a likely subject of debate
at the regularmPESC meeting to-
night, at S p.m. at the PESC of-
fice at 332 South State St.

A major factor in their delib-
erations will be the future of
Willow Run Laboratories, the
site of much of the University's
classified research.
The administration has been
attempting to separate Willow
Run from the University by
either establishing a non-profit
research corporation or by sell-
ing it.
Since the assembly policy
would prevent much of the
present research at Willow Run,
the progress of negotiations on
divesting the labs from the Uni-
versity will be a major factor in
determining when the Regents
will approve the research policy
and put it into effect.
If Willow Run does leave the
University, much of its war-re-
lated research will continue out-
side of the University's juris-
diction.

search issue until some statement
was completed on proprietary re-
search.
Supporters of the original reso-
lution opposed waiting for the
proprietary report, feeling that the
two types of research should be
dealt with as two separate issues.
They feared that because of over-
riding sentiment against a n y
strong limitations on proprietary
research, and because of the large
amount of such research done at
the University, any joint state-
ment covering both types of re-
search would have the net effect of
weakening restrictions on federal
classified research-the main tar-
get of opposition.
It now appears that they were
wrong, as even the most staunch
opponents of classified research
seem amenable to the newly-en-
dorsed report.
The report was passed only after
long discussion by assembly mem-
bers, but they made no major
changes in the content of the reso-
lution. Norman confided after the
meeting that he had expected the
measure to be changed far more
than it eventually was.
Numerous amendments w e r e
proposed to the report, but the
only one passed involved the se-
mantics of one provision of the
report.
Assembly member economics
Prof. Frederic Scherer succeeded
in passing an amendment which
clarified a provision in the report
which forbade the University from
entering any research contract
which might lead to the destruc-
tion of human life.
Scherer indicated later that he
felt the report left several "loop-
holes" by means of which research
might continue unhindered, not-
ably the clause permitting classi-
fication of numerical constants.
Others, however, seemed gener-
ally pleased with the report as
finally passed. 'Norman breathed,
a sigh of relief after the meeting,
and indicated he was happy with
the report.
CRC member William Gamson,
long considered a staunch foe of
classified research, said he thought
the report would not weaken the
assembly's prior position on re-
search.
"I see this proposal as simply
extending the Schuman resolution
to proprietary research," he said.
"It should allow most federal re-
search to be stopped and allow
most proprietary r e s e a r c h to
continue."

It all began in the first grade.
But don't blame your first-grade teacher. It wasn't
her fault. It was the system she had to teach.
The old "run, Spot, run" method.
You had to read it out loud. Word by Word. And
that's the way it vwas until you became a second
grader. Where your teacher asked you to read silently.
But you couldn't do it.
You probably stopped reading out loud. But you
still said every word to yourself.
If you're an average reader, you're probably
reading that way now.
Which means you read only as fast as you talk.
About 250 to 300 words a minute.
And that's not fast enough any more.
Not when the average student has approximately
'8 hours of required reading for every day of classes.
And since the amount of time in a day isn't about
to increase, your reading speed will have to.
In order to handle it all.
The Evelyn Wood Reading Dynamics course can
help.
With training, you'll be able to see groups of
words. To read between 1,000 and 3,000 words per
minute. Depending on how difficult the material is.
At any rate, we guarantee to at least triple your
reading speed, or we'll refund your entire tuition.
(98.4% of everyone who takes the course accom-
plishes this.)
So don't waste time thinking about whom to
blame. -Come take a free introductory speed reading
lesson. We'll increase your reading speed on the spot.
It takes about an hour to find out how you can reduce
your study time by 50% or more.
And it ought to be worth an hour of your time.
To save thousands.
