The tentative settlement follow ed 11 days of sessions with state appointed fact-finder W i 1 i a m Ellmann. Both sides agreed to sub mit to fact-finding following t h University's unsuccessful attemp to secure an injunction agains the striking union. Settlement, however, was ach ieved not through fact-finding bu through negotiating sessions Mon day. Earlier in the week, Ellmann de scribed the settlement as "an equitable agreement for b o t] parties." ' However, some union members after reading the tentative settle ment expressed the belief that th union had "sold out." "The lack of a cost of living clause, no movement on longevity retirement and life insurance, an the failure to get a day care cente show negligence on the part o the leadership on implementin the demands of the rank and file, said one member. Two weeks after negotiations be gan, state mediator Richard Tere pin entered the negotiations an helped reduce the number of dis puted issues from 60 to approxi mately six. However, Terepin wa unable to stave off a University. wide strike when the second con tract extension ran out. Food and maintenance servic to the dorms was cut off durin the strike, while operations a University Hospital were curtaile I Anderson cited a failure by Hef- ner to see that all proposed teach- ers. were approved by the literary college executive committee and dean as the primary reason fos Snot granting approval to the six sections. Hefner then blasted the com- mittee for its "ambiguous" course rmart rules and its failure to in- form the course coordinators of the proper procedure to follow. Hefner called the curriculum committee's decision to delete the six sections after three weeks of the term had passed "An educa- tionally indefensible move" while a teacher of a section in labor re- lations, approved by the commit- tee, said the blanket guarantee of college credit for the course was "a high handed solution that theoretically dealt with the prob- lem, but did not salve the question of overcrowding" in the approved sections, after the displaced stu- dents entered. The committee members coun- y tered that the action was the only o possible solution in view of the lateness of the term. Several mem- d bers pointed out that even with the addition of the 80 students, s the nine approved sections would s still be less crowded than most LSA classes. e it oard backs d 3~ GLF rights - (Continued from Page 1) n : Although the statement explain- - ed at one point that the Univer- e sity is not obliged to take posi- t tions unnecessary to its own func- t tioning, it later concluded that "if the rules governing use of facili- - ties be reasonably framed in terms t of educational purpose, we think - i the proposed meeting of the Gay Liberation Front clearly qualifies." - The board called the denial of n University facilities to the confer- ence "an act of discrimination," , but did not see it as necessarily - deliberate. e The statement concluded that the "denial of the request of the g Gay Liberation Front for a mid- ;y western conference is a denial of d freedom of assembly."

He said the com- mittee has never before been so stringent in its requirements for teacher approval. "The teachers of every course approved for the Course Mart program have always had their qualifications carefully reviewed by the committee," replied psy- chology Prof. Ronald Tikofsky, curriculum committee secretary. With the meeting time almost expired, course cooordinator John Cumbler asked if the committee would reconsider approval of -the six sections if full information could be provided about each one. After some debate among the committee, a motion to that effect was approved, and it was decided that Hefner and the teachers for the six sections in question should be present to answer questions about their class formats. -t-t-i-out mots behindfirtingy (Cant (Continued from Page 1) -The officer's record: "the man when all1 in November between Hunter and has served a number of years on world con Harris when the mayor announced the force and he has never been you?" the city would not press charges disciplined for anything before The coun against a policeman charged withI . .
