Shortly before 6 p.m., University security chief Roland Gainsley announced to the campers that "those of you who do not move within five minutes are subject to the trespass law and will be arrested." There was no resistance and no arrests were made as a crowd of nearly 100 people watched plant department workers take tents and other items into a waiting truck. Gainsley assured the campers that the tents could be picked up Friday after they were cleaned and fumigated today.

As of Tuesday, hardly a house is left undamaged. The sprawling refugee camps on the outskirts, where thousands of Palestinians have lived up to a dozen to a room, seem to have been pulverized.

Washington officials were in- clined to see a ,glimmer of hope in contrast to their gloomy con- ception earlier this week, saying prospects for an Arab solution to the crisis appeared greater than before. In Moscow, Soviet President Ni- kolai V. Podgorny warned t h e United States to keep out of the Jordanian crisis, but implicitly is- sued a similar caution to Syria and Iraq Who have been support- ing the guerrilla cause. Podgorny said the Soviet Union looks on any outside interference in Jordan as "inadmissible" and indicated that the U.S. 6th Fleet was posing such a threat. "It is urgently necessary to put, an end as soon as possible .to the bloody clashes in Jordan," Pod- gorny told a luncheon honoring Indian President Varahgiri Ven- kata Giri. The official Soviet news agency Tass indicated later that the Kremlin had appealed directly to Jordan, Syria and Iraq to seek an end to the "fratricidal fight- ing."

Although Krasny said. there was "absolutely no resist- ance," two vans of policemen were reported two blocks from the area at the time in case of trouble. Earlier, when faculty and ad- ministrators were expecting an injunction to be served, hurried attempts were made to convince the campers to leave. Prof. Ray- mond Kahn and Prof. D a r i n Hinerman, both members of Sen- ate Assembly, visited the camp- site and pointed out what they considered to be the 'health haz- ard." Vice-President for Student Services Robert Knauss also visit-, ed the site. When asked by the campers whether his previous of- fet of 'a North Campus campsite was still open he replied, "I don't know." Knauss had offered earlier that the tents could be moved to North Campus, but both this suggestion and the campers' proposal t h a t Waterman Gym facilities be open- ed to meet required health stand- ards were rejected by President Robben Fleming and other Uni- versity officials. Cost and the pre- dominance of non-students at Tent City were cited as reasons for these decisions. Health reasons were first cited by county officials as grounds for disbanding Tent City. Contrary to earlier Administra- tion plans, an injunction was not used against "Tent City." A 1- though University lawyers t;at- tempted to get an injunction early yesterday afternoon, Circuit Court Judge William Ager refused the motion, saying there was "other legal recourse short of an injunc- tion. The trespass law requires no court action. If they refused to move as Gainsley directed, police could have made arrests. Gainsley reiterated the Admin- istration's.contention that the site was a health hazard. "I have ar. affadavit from Dr. Paul Gikas, member of' the c i t y and county boards of health.'In it, he concludes this is a health hazard and irreparable harm will be caused by the tents' continued presence," Gainsley' said. The conditions the University administration placed on T e n t City when it first allowed' the tents to stay were that no "health hazard" be created and that the population of the campsite remain predominately -student. See 'U', Page 8 Denton trial, toda By JUANITA ANDERSON Peter Denton. is scheduled to appear before the Rackham Board of Inquiry today to face ;charges made against him during last spring's Black Action 'Movement (BAM) strike. Prof. Bernard Galler charges that on March 27, Denton and some 20 other students entered his Math 473 class, shouted, and thus forced him to dismiss class ten minutes early. Denton has said he would not recognize the authority of a fac- ulty board in his case, and would only attend a trial by Central Studet Judiciary (CSJ). CSJ accepted the case in April and stated that further action by other judicial bodies was unnecessary. But Graduate School Executive Board stated it "has authority in matters relating to student con- duct and will continue to exercise that authority." The Denton case points up a long-standing dispute over who should(have jurisdiction over stu- dent conduct unrelated to aca- demic cpmpetence. The current regental bylaws recognize the authority of faculty bddies in cases as these, but Student Government Council -(SGC) claims that all- student judiciaries, such as CSJ, should have exclusive jurisdiction in such, cases. Galler said he brought the case to the disciplinary board' rather than CSJ because "I have more confidence in the board and I've dealt with them before. I know they are fair." Denton said he doesn't feel the case can be handled fairly by the board. "The issue is of trial by peers. I don't think people should be able to rip up classes any time they want," he says. "Peers are the only ones qualified to judge this." "The board has added two in- experienced token students who will be intimated and persuaded by the majority of the faculty," he added. See DENTON, Page 8 MEMBERS DISCUSS R I By TAMMY JACOBS Daily News Analysis Student Government Council has been trying to project a new image. Although it has only held two meet- ings so far this semester, it is already apparent that SGC is trying to rid it-, self of. its reputation for passing paper 4 motions and doing very little else. "We're trying to add things to what would have been merely motions of sup- The question of purpose. one council member in charge of over- seeing the job doesn't do'anything." Council member Henry Clay says that giving money and verbal support "is about all SGC can do now unless some- thing super-big and important comes up., He adds that he feels SGC was ef- fective in its support of the Black Action Movement (BAM) strike last spring, and cites the BAM issue as one that he ex- Grieck agrees that the basic distinction is a difficult thing to define. "If you are on SGC, people are going to ciate you and your actions with SGC," he says, adding that he feels a respon- sibility to be more active because of his role on SOC. Speaking of the interim disciplinary rules passed by the Regents last April. for example, DeGrieck says that SGC's official position is "to never let those interim rub~ehP ,,cn.'l " will act according to their personal philosophies, but will have to consider their Council positions." Dale Oesterle, for example, serving his first term on Council, says that if he were to differ with an action SGC is committted to, he "would make my views known to the public, as a dis- senting opinion." Oesterle, who describes himself as a 4"fio-iavQtp.n-,ea~taiv." rn 1 a c, e shis An alternate fund has been set; up by BAM outside of University control, and to this fund SGC al- located the $500. SGC had last spring pledged $500 annually to the 'Martin Luther King Fund, and by giing this money to the alternate fund, Haber charged them with "ren- eging" on their pledge. SGC also moved to join with other campus groups to co-spon- sor a teach-in on the "Middle East' Crisis," and to provide "an educational forum" on the sub- ject. SGC also reaffirmed its stand ,ry, _::. .:
