first time yesterday. Ellmann, ap-
pointed Wednesday by the Michi-
gan Employment Relations Com-
mission (MERC) used the session
to get a "general idea of the is-
sues involved in the dispute."
Ellmann scheduled the next ses-
sion with the two parties for 10
a.m. Monday. The time lapse will
be used by ,the union and the Uni-
versity to compile information to
present to the fact-finder.
Ellmann has indicated it should

take approximately two weeks for
him to hear the positions of the
union and the University, and an-
other week for the preparation of
his recommendations for settle-
ment.
The results of the fact-finder's
report will only be binding in the
sense that the union negotiators
and the University negotiators
have agreed to recommend accept-
ance of the fact-finder's decision
to their respective consituencies-

Groups protest arrests
in local drug raids

ck at jobs
the union membership and the Re-
gents.
McCracken reported yesterday
that there were four issues with
which the fact-finder would deal.
These included:
-Wages. McCracken said that
the present union offer was $2.70
an hour for pay grade one through
$5.50 an hour for pay grade 12-
a 50 cent increase over the current
wages;
-Cost of living. The union
wants a cost-of-living provision
added to the contract;
-Health insurance. The Uni-
versity has agreed to contribute
$26 a month for family coverage
for each employe and to cover
70 per cent of possible rate in-
creases. The union, however,
wants the University to agree to
cover 100 per cent of future rate
increases; and
-Fringe benefits for union of-
ficers. Currently, any union of-
ficer 'spending more than four or
five hours daily on union business
loses his sick-time and vacation
pay.
When asked about wages, Mc-
Cracken said, "I guarantee that
when you go back to work there
will not be a person in this bar-
gaining unit making less than
$2.50 an hour."
Clair Otis, staff coordinator for
Council 7, the regional AFSCME
organization, said that by today,
"the presidents of all AFSCME
locals at Michigan colleges will be
here to help Local 1583 present
their information to the fact-
finder."

"the relationship between our or-
ganizations and the youth com-
munity on one hand and the po-
lice and city administration on
the other."
The Tribal Council has been
working with city authorities to
fight the "hard drug" problem in
Ann Arbor.
Tuesday's arrests were not for

drugs," although the council
charges that police language "con-
fuses the issue to divert attention
from the heroin, amphetamine
and barbiturates problems."
Police Chief Walter Krasny was
unavailable for comment yester-
day.
However, Wednesday Krasny
had said that "there will be more
raids. You could say that the
heat is on."
Steve Schwartz of Drug Help
said yesterday that Drug Help
supporters have been "very dis-
turbed by Krasny's statement."
Representatives of the Tribal
Council are meeting with Mayor
Harris this morning in an attempt
to "develop a rational approach to
drug problems," Schwartz added.

Regents discuss pass-fail

(Continued from Page 1)
The RC utilizes the pass-fail
system in most of its courses,
Sklar explained. But, she added,
accompanying the pass or fail de-
signation is a written evaluation
of the student's performance in
class.
She said that the written eval-
uation made the RC pass-fail sys-
tem "an altogether different ex-
perience" from that of the literary
college, which only designates
whether a student passes or fails a
course in pass-fail courses.
Brown asked whether a pos-
sible solution to the pass-fail
question might lie in permitting a
student to elect on a pass-fail
basis any courses outscide his dis-
tribution and his concentration re-
quirements.
"Such a solution would be going
in the right direction, but it is not
idea," Bass said.
BusAd students
blast Harvey
The business school's Student
Council passed a resolution last
night condemning Sheriff Doug-
las Harvey's proposed "Intelli-
gence Squad," charging it would
pose a threat to academic free-
dom.
"We feel that if any money is
to be spent by the government to
improve the campus area it should
be spent on faculty salary sup-
ports and scholarships, not in set-
ting up special units that pose a
threat of reducing the atmosphere
of free-thought necessary for valid
and quality academic pursuit c
knowledge," the resolution stated.
A member of the council said
last night that copies of the reso-
lution had been sent to Senators
Philip Hart and Robert Griffin,
President Fleming and the Justice
Department.

.._va____________________.__________! , ,

Philosophy Prof. Carl Cohen, an
RC associate director and a mem-
ber of the LSA curriculum com-
mittee, informed the Regents that
the committee had placed a "flat
moratorium" on any new pass-
fail courses, and would wait until
the question had been resolved
further before taking any action.
The literary college presently

offers a handful of introductory
courses on a pass-fail basis, in-
cluding psychology 171, economics
201 and 202, and foreign language.
In addition, upper-classmen are
permitted to elect one pass-fail
course outside their concentration
or distribution requirements dur-
ing each of their last four terms
in the college.

School board backs
anti-racism program

Poll indicates
many students
accept violence
The Gallup Poll has estimated
that 40 per cent of American col-
lege students believe that change
in the United States is more likely
through revolution than through
peaceful means, the Detroit Free
Press reported yesterday.
In addition, 4 per cent of the
students surveyed feel that vio-
lence to bring about change is
sometimes justified.
Eight in ten of the students be-
lieve that the American political
system does not respond quickly
enough to meet the needs of the
people.
But few of the students reject
all patriotic feelings. Eighty per-
cent of the student sample say
they "take pride in being an

used for securing consultant serv-
ices to help implement some parts
of the program. It is unclear
which parts of the program will
be implemented first.
Larger expenditures for imple-
menting many of the costlier pro-
posals such as one calling for a
reduction of the pupil-counselor
ratio, and another which would
provide tutors for slower learners
will be considered when the 1971-
72 budget is drawn up in six to
eight weeks.
The approved program was
drafted by city school superintend-
ent W. Scott Westerman, and con-
stituted a response to a report pre-
sented to the board last week by

Dr. Robert Potts, human relations
ombudsman for the Ann Arbor
school system.
Westerman's r e p o r t generally
supported Potts' recommendations
and called for the implementation
of most of Potts' suggestions.
However, a number of the pro-
posals included in Potts' report
were rejected by Westerman, or
labelled as requiring "further
study."
Proposals in the Potts' plan
which were not approved called
for a free summer school pro-
gram, a reduction in the student-
teacher ratio, and a suspension of
sections of the school disciplinary
code which deal with suspensions
and expulsions.
