The department began work shops Monday designed to provid open discussion on seven major topics: The current situation at the school, communication within the school, educational theories and teaching strategies, relation of the school to the community output of the school and evalua tion of courses, resource identifi cation, and the relation of the school to the professions. . The much-discussed "'issue o grading came up at the sessions At a mass meeting yesterday con cluding the program, a straw vote was taken on how students felt about grades. Only one student in the audience favored the reten tion of letter grades. However, the vote was strictly advisory. Another controversial issue dis cussed was that of open admis sions for the school. The workshop Proposed a stu dent-faculty committee to investi gate open admissions, listing points for its consideration. However n committee has yet been forme t for this purpose.. Yesterday the workshops con- tinued their discussions in an at= tempt to get down to some defi- nite proposals, and at the mass meeting yesterday afternoon the workshops reported on their pro- gress and presented specific pro- A posals. Generating some of the mosi heated discussion Tuesdaywas the report by the workshop on evalu- ation systems. The workshop proposed that each student submit a list of what he feels should be the criteria b3 which he is evaluated, according to what he wants to get out of the course, and that the grading system be replaced by a credit/no record system based on his list of criteria and the minimum ob- jectives of the course.

POSSIBLE GERRYMANDER: ward dispute flu re-us with By CHRIS PARKS Daily News Analysis A Republican proposal to re-I draw the city's ward boundaries has stirred further controversy in a long smoldering battle between the GOP and the Democrats. According to state law, the city must redraw its ward boundaries after each federal census. What irks city Democrats - they say - is that the Republi- cans devised and submitted their plan to the city council without reference to the city's ward and boundary commission. ew GOP plan CHICAGO (1-Sen. Edmund Muskie rolled past Eugene Mc- Carthy last night to win the Illinois presidential popularity contest, and led Sen. George McGovern in a twin primary battle for Democratic nation- al convention delegates. Meanwhile, Chicago M a y o r Richard Daley was taking a beat- ing as two candidates he had en- dorsed had lost or were losing early this morning. Muskie. the one-time Democrat- ic front-runner, bent on a 'come- back after an also-ran showing in the Florida primary a week ago, polled about 63 per cent of the presidential preference vote over McCarthy in an expected victory. The stakes in that race were mainly psychological, with Muskie seeking to regain political momen- tum for the crowded, crucial Wis- consin primary April 4. where all the Democratic contenders will be running. With 70 per cent of the 10.858 precincts reporting, the race stood this way: Muskie - 540,384 votes, or 63 per cent. McCarthy - 320,591 votes, or 37 ner cent. The count was slower in the complex delegate selection con- test, where the stakes were more tangible - 160 votes for the Dem- ocratic nomination for President. At least half of them were ex- pected to go to uncommitted dele- gates led by Daley With 31 per cent of the precincts c o u n t e d, delegates committed to Muskie were in the lead for 47 convention posts, McGovern dele- I ates led for 19, and uncommit- ted entries for 54. Edward Hanrahan won the Democratic nomination for an- other term as Cook County state's attorney, decisively defeating two candidates, one of whom was en- dorsed by Daley. H a n r a h a n, who had been dumped by party leaders because of his indictment stemming from a police raid on a Black Panther apartment, now stands as a ma- jor rival of the 70-year-old Daley for the leadership of the state's powerful Democratic organization. And in the major state-level contest, party insurgent Daniel Walker held a narrow lead over Lt. Gov. Paul Simon - Daley's choice for the Democratic nomin- ation for governor as results came in early this morning. Muskie's preferential primary victory was a landslide by any standard, but it came over a less- than-f ormidable rival.. Nonetheless, he staged an in- tensive and costly campaign in Illinois, spending about $250,000, invested heavily in television ad- vertising. Furthermore, since McGovern wasn't entered in the preference poll, Democrats who supported his, delegate slate likely voted for Mc- Carthy in the popularity poll. On a rainy election day, Repub- licans crossed over in droves to cast ballots in the Democratic primary. Statewide, the switches appear- ed to help the Muskie cause and spelled trouble for Daley and his Democratic organization. While Illinois voted, Muskie flew to Milwaukee for quick swing of campaigning for the upcoming pri- mary there, then flew to Cleve- land for a private fund-raising din- ner. At a news conference there, he was asked whether there is any See MUSKIE, Page 10 What is really as stake, how-I ever, is the balance of political power in the city with the Re- publicans standing to district themselves into being a majority party if their plan is accepted. Specifically, t h e Republican proposal would: -Move s t u d e n t dominated areas of the First Ward into the Second Ward; -Move Republican dominatedI areas of the Second Ward into the Third Ward; -Move parts of the student! dominated Hill street area out ofI Sheriff Harvey denies charges of negligence in prison assault l the Third Ward; andj -Move black sections of the Fifth Ward into the First Ward. The results of these changesj would be to maintain andI strengthen Republican power in the Fourth and Fifth Wards, and by subtracting students and add- ing a Second Ward Republicans, place the Third Ward - at pres- ent a swing ward - solidly into the Republican camp. Councilman James Stephenson (R-Fourth Ward) does not deny that the plan would favor Re- publican interests in the city. Comparing the city to a wheel and ward boundaries to spokes he said yesterday "to redistrict you rotate four spokes so as to divide the wards and make them equal population wise. You have to ro- tate them one way or another. We rotated them to the left. We find the Republican Party coming out kbetter when we rotate to the left." Stephenson, however, denied that the party plan was a gerry- mander. The plan has come under vio- lent attack from both Democrats and Human Right Party (HRP) members. Councilman John Kirscht (D- First Ward) called the plan "ill- conceived" Monday while HRP first ward candidate Jerry De- Grieck yesterday labeled it "ab- surd." Under the plan, De Grieck said, "the voting power of the students will be totally thrown into the Second Ward leaving their repre- sentation to two council mem- bers." Lost in the shuffle is the Ward and Boundary Commission, set up last January to prevent fighting See WARD, Page 10 By JIM FRISINGER Sheriff Douglas Harvey denied charges yesterday that he was negligent in allowing an alleged rape to take place in the Wash- tenaw County Jail last month. Six inmates are scheduled to appear today to finish preliminary exam- ination on charges of Gross Inde- cency arising from the incident. However, Harvey did admit that sometimes regular patrols of the cell areas, which could have pre- vented the alleged incident, are not always carried out.

Voter turn- out was unusually heavy, possibly because of the spring-like weather. Turnout larger than usual' in ca-mpus, vote By SCOTT GORDON Perhaps enticed by the spring- like weather, students turned out in numbers that pollwatch- ers described as "heavier than usual" to vote in the first day of the all-campus elections yes- terday. Election chairman Dave Scha- per described the voter turnout as "greater than average" and added that, in general, he was pleased with most aspects of yesterday's balloting. However, at least one party was not completely pleased with the day's events, as GROUP presidential candidate Bill Ja- cobs filed a complaint against Bob Black, '73, charging the use of Jacob's name on unsign- ed literature. CORRECTION Due to space limitations in- yesterday's paper, The Daily was unable to print the entire list of candidates for the PIRGIM Board. Those deleted yesterday were: Bonnie Jean Fox, Jay Hack, Jamie Kaplan, Jack Quinn, Bill Schroeder, Garret Terberg, Steve Vagnozzi and David De Varti. Jacobs contends that leaflets urging students to write in his name for LSA council Vice Pres- ident and that of Randall Cas- well for Council President were produced and distributed by Black. Caswell is the University student charged with starting a fire in the General Library Feb. 3. When informed of these alle- gations, Black stated that he "disclaimed sole responsibility for producing and distributing the leaflets", but refused to ans- wer questions' concerning what role, if any, he played. Tom Bentley, Credentials and Rules committee chairman, said a hearing has not been sched- uled yet, in as much as he has not been able to reach Black. However, C&R is scheduled to hear two minor cases involving GROUP complaints against the Student Tenant's Union Coali- tion tomorrow night, although there is a possibility these com- plaints may be settled out of court. Most of the candidates seem- ed encouraged by the day's pro- ceedings, although many ad- mitted to the difficulty of mak- ing any predictions as to who would win. Greg Kateff, Presidential can- didate on the Responsible Alt- ernative ticket said that, al- though "it could go either way, today's voting went as well as we expected it to," adding that "a lot of our supporters haven't gone out to vote yet." SEE TURNOUT, Page 10 Gregorydescribes war fast By DAN BIDDLE Comedian/politician Dick Greg-: ory, looking gaunt and emaciated in the eleventh month of his anti-. war fast, told a standing-room- only crowd of Washtenaw Com- munity College students yesterday he will continue to starve himself "until the war in Vietnam is com- pletely over." In a strongly worded speech, characterized by Gregory's unique brand of humor,the 38 year old Chicagoan told an appreciate au- dience that young people "com- prise the strongest power in the world today." . ',* . Gregory's faith in young people was a recurrant theme in the one w and a half hour speech, though he also lashed out at the Nixon administration for its stands on school busing, the Vietnam war, the China visit and the ITT affair. In 1968 Gregory entered the presidential race with a bid under the jail.V "Any fighting, banging, jostling or normal conversation in the cell would have been extremely audible to anyone monitoring the cells," he said. "It is clear to me that no a hhppl to n nit n.nr hea imilin one oun ereu o o L om or u a system on the two nights that the young man was attacked." Seventeen-year-old Donald Nor- ris, the complainant in the case against the six inmates, told The Daily that a "Kangaroo court" and subsequent beatings and sex- ual assaults which were sentenced him by the court lasted for two solid hours and that at no time did he see or hear any patrolling guards. Harvey called "ridiculous" rharves that the cellblock was not regularly patrolled the night in, auestion. He admitted, however, that. at times, due to the large work load pressing on the four men who at night are responsible for the entire jail, regular period- ic patrols are not always carried out.

The only law student in the country to be awarded this honor in 1968, King keeps the plaque she received on her office wall - inscribed to Mrs. John C. King. King is one of many women who have be- come increasingly concerned over the fact that in many states, married women are re- quired to use their husbands' namies in all business transactions. "Obsession and concern with names is the time of marriage. The case was brought to the Court by an Alabama woman who wanted her maiden name on her driver's license. While the effect this ruling will have on future cases is unclear, many states have laws or backlogs of legal opinion prohibit- for office. This view is based on the right of all citizens to change their names informally by common law, as long as their intent is not fraudulent. State law also allows all citizens the right to change their names formally in probate Credit card companies are also ::C:under maiden names. I
