SGC elections
The results of last week's Student Government
Council election should be ready early Monday, ac-
cording to Elections Director Alan Bercovitz. But
the Student Action Coalition announced Friday
that it will challenge the outcome. Any other
group or student who wishes to contest the elec-
tion must do so within 24 hours of the results being
certified. If the challenge is upheld a new elec-
tion would be necessary. However, one SGC of-
ficial commented yesterday that a new election
wouldn't help much unless more students voted.
Last week only 3.5 per cent of those entitled to vote
bothered to cast ballots.
Oops
A strange coincidence produced an error in last
Friday's Cinema Weekend column - we reviewed
the wrong movie. Two pictures with the title
Family Life were released in the same year, but
only one - a Polish film - was listed in our usual
sources of research. Cinema II informs us, how-
ever, that the Family Life they plan to show this
evening is an English-made picture directed by
Ken Loach. Well, as the song goes, it's a small
world after all.
Happenings .. .

Tough customer
A runaway kangaroo gave two of Chicago's fin-
est fits yesterday as they tried to capture the
agile beast. The cops attempted to handcuff the
animal but in doing so got a lesson in the art
of self-defense. "His punch was brutal and he
kicked us both pretty bad too," one policeman
said. "We really didn't know what to do. After
all, there aren't any general orders on the cap-
ture and care of a kangeroo." The marsupial got
away with nary a scratch.

Sen. Edward Gurney (R-Fla.), who served on
the Senate Watergate panel, has lost a fight to
avoid being fingerprinted and photographed as a
result of a bribery indictment against him. He
claimed the procedure - standard for anyone
charger with a felony - would be "humiliating".
But the federal judge hearing the case did not
agree and ordered the Senator "treated like any
other defendant."

Ying for Vesco
The Costa Rican legislature is currently consid-
ering repeal of the law which has shielded million-
aire-financier Rober SVesco from extradition by
United States authorities. Vesco is wanted on
charges stemming from a $200,00 contribution to
former President Nixon's re-election in an alleged
attempt to influence an investigation by the Secur-
ities and Exchange Commission. U.S. officials
have twice tried unsuccessfully to secure Vesco's
return since he arrived in Costa Rica nearly 18
months ago. If the law is repealed, extradition
could take place.
Re-armamnent?
Soviet scientists have succeeded in growing
new legs on frogs and rats and there is evidence
that restoration of human limbs could be oossible
in the future. Data from the experiments suggests
that damaged tissues, limbs, and organs in high
mammals and theoretically humans can be re-
generated.

CO Hell
By DAN BLUGERMAN
HELL - Claudia Rast hoisted
the six-foot birch log to her
shoulder, skipped a half-step to
the toe mark, and flung the
timber skyward.
It landed eight feet and 10
inches away in Hell.
THAT GAVE her last place
in the Bolt Throw, one of 12
events at yesterday's Midwest-
ern Foresters Conclave in Hell,
Mich.
The Forestry Club of the Uni-
versity of Missouri emerged
victorious for the s e c o n d
straight year in an all-day event
pitting students from a dozen
midwestern universities in tests
of forestry skills and old time
logging practices.
The University's School of
Natural Resources hosted this
year's conclave at the Fresh
Air Camp 10 miles north of
campus.
THE ACTIVITIES r a n g e d
from chopping 10-inch square
cottonwood logs, for speed with
short - handled, single bladed
axes to that perennial back-
hills favorite-the tobacco spit.
The day's events culminated
with a three-legged relay of
canoeing, tree felling and fire
building.
The relay began as contest-
ants ran 200 yards to beached
canoes which they raced around
a buoy on nearby Patterson
Lake. One canoeist from each
team then sprinted to hand off
a wooden stake to a teammate.
This contestant -pounded the
stake into the ground near a
30-foot pine log and felled the
log with an axe and saw, trying
to land it as near the stake as
possible.
A TIME penalty was com-
puted foreach team according
to the distance each log fell

Special To The Daily
MADISON--The malign-
ed Michigan offense came
to life vesterday, nowerinz
the Wolverines past the
upset - hungry Wisconsin
Badgers, 24-20.
Unable to stop Wiscon-
sin's attack, the Wolverines
dcd the next best tbhing
grinding out two long, time
c o n s u m i n g touch-
down drives in the second
half.
QUAR TE RB A CK Den-
nis Franklin ran the option to
near perfection and completed
five str,)ight passes in that sec-
ond half. He also led the Wol-
-erines to 10 consecutive third
dow Nn conversions, enabling
Michigan to keen its undefeated
rernrd (6-0) intact.
"We knew thev (Wisconsin)
would come back after last
w-,ek," said Michie-n coach
Bo Schembechler. "We're .irst
haryv to get out of here with
a win."
"We never quit." said Wis-
consin coach John Jardine.
"We did something to Michi-
L*n no one else has done." That
"something" was score 20
noints, the most against a Michi-
aan team since Ohio State
Gmnred an equal number in
1972.
WISCONSIN scored first, driv-
inq 80 yards, all on the ground,
in 16 olavs. Ron Pollard drove
into the endzone from the two,
and Vince Lamia's conversion
ga-e Wisoonsin a 7-0 lead, one
pl- into the second cuarter.
Michigan marched straight
dmvn the field after the kick-
off to tie the score.
The Wolverines rattled off
fotr first downs onra 10-yard
Rob Lvtle run around right end,
a Franklin keeper around right
tackle for seven, a nine-yard
Chuck Heater burst through the
midile, and a Lytle dive for
eight.
FRANKLIN THEN handed to
Heater off left guard, and the
senior fullback rambled 22
yards through a big hole for
the touchdown. The Wisconsin
defenders were completely fool-
ed by Franklin's slight-of-hand
work as they all followed Frank-
lin to the outside, expecting the
option.
Michigan had the ball only
three times in the first half as
the Badgers controlled play,
running through the Wolverine
defense with uncanny ease.
"I'm not gonna make ex-
cusesbfor our defense when
somebody moves the ball on
us," said Wolverine safetyman
Dave Brown. "But remember,
they didn't win."
WISCONSIN HAD great suc-
cess running right at the Wol-
verines' defensive line behind
huge offensive tackles Dennis
Lick and John Reimer. Fullback
Ken Starch rambled for 88
yards in 14 carries in the first
half, but the Badgers could not
find the Michigan end zone a
second time.
"That's the most anyone's run
on us in years," Schembechler
said in disbelief.
"Wisconsin's got a good of-
fensive line, and a good team
period," offered defensive tac-
kle Greg Morton. "They're pro-
bably the second best team we'll
play next to Ohio State."
WISCONSIN KEPT the ball
away from Michigan in the first
half, and the Wolverines re-
turned the favor in the second.
Michigan drove 70 yards to
take a 14-7 lead following the
second half kickoff.
Franklin hit tight end Greg
DenBoer three times on third
down situations in the drive.

special To The Daily
BOSTON - Thousands of Bos-
tonians, most of them young
people, came out yesterday to
vent passions sparked by the
busing issue at two demonstra-
tions-one in support and one
in p r o t e s t of court-ordered
school busing to promote racial
integration.
After several weeks of violent
clashes between black and white
youths in South Boston, some
of the city's tensions appeared
to be easing. School attendance
rose at the end of last week,
and both of yesterday's crowds
were orderly.
IN THE downtown area, near-
ly 7,000 marchers-most of them
white college students-walked
four miles through Latin, Orien-
tal, and white neighborhoods to
a pro-busing rally at Boston
Common.
Thedemonstrators chanted,
"Kids can't learn in a racist
school" and heard speakers
from radical groups as well as
a local parents' organization
decry the harassment of black
students and attempted school
boycott by whites.
Meanwhile, anti-busing organ-
izers held their rally at Kelly
Field, a run-down playground
in Hyde Park where the busing
issue has recently grown vio-
lent.
Yesterday's crowd, estimated
at 1500, listened quietly and ap-
plauded as Boston School Com-
mittee chairman John Kerrigan
blasted civil rights groups and
the news media for "caring
nothing about Boston" and us-
ing what he claimed was a
"double standard" in supporting
school busing.
KERRIGAN and a n o t h e r
school committee member, Paul
Ellison, drew the loudest cheers
when they attacked the Boston
Globe for its editorial supp:rt
of school busing. Kerrigan .aid
the paper should be renamed
"the Maggot Globe."
Several demonstrators sport-
ed red, white and blue "Enough
Is Enough-Boycott the Globe"
stickers on their car bumpers.
One elderly man said, "I've
been the reading the Globe for
50 years, but I cancelled 'cause
it turned nigger."
"We're proud in Boston,"
Ellison told the crowd. "We
have the first public school .sys-
tern in the country, and now
we're going to be the first school
system to defeat forced bus-
ing."
BUT NOT everyone listened.
In a Saturday picnic mood,
teenagers played touch football
at the edge of the crowd as
small children chased e a c h
other through the baseball-dia-
mond's bleachers.
The pro-busing rally drew
large numbers of onlookers but
few joined the march.
"I think everyone should just
love each other," said one mid-
dle-aged woman who asked not
to be identified. "But busing?
Why didn't they leave things
the way they were? If the par-
ents would just leave the kids
alone, they'd work it out for
themselves.
BOTH CROWDS took to chant-
ing. At Kelly Park, young peo-
ple used a converted football
cheer-"Here we go, Boston,
here. we go"-as Ellison de-
clared, "We are right in Bos-
ton; we've been right all along."
The pro-busing ma rcchers
shouted, "Hey, hey, the school
committee has got to go," as
they p a s s e d the committee
building. Organizers branded
Kerrigan and other committee
members "racists."
OVER $24 MILLION:

WASHINGTON (P) - Vice
President - designate Nelson
Rockefeller, who must pay $903,-
718 more in federal taxes, said
yesterday he gave $24,712,245 in
gifts to charitable, educational
and other tax-exempt organiza-
tions from 1957 through June
30 of this year.
Rockefeller made the disclos-
ure in a letter to Sen. Howard
Cannon, (D-Nev.) chairman of
the Committee on Rules and
Administration, and released by
the Rockefeller office here.
Rockefeller's largest gifts
were for the furtherance of the
visual arts, his chief non-polit-
lists donations
ical interest and hobby.
THE disclosure of his charit-
able gifts came a day after he
announced he will have to pay
an additional $903,718 in federal
income and gift taxes, a figure
likely to soar past the $1 million
mark when interest is included.
But as President Ford made
a campaign swing through three
states yesterday, his press sec-
retary, Ron Nessen, issued a
White House statement, saying
Ford 'still has complete faith
in Vice President - designate
Nelson Rockefeller."
In New York, before the an-
nouncement of his charitable
contributions, Rockefeller said
he is not guilty of any wrong-
doing and added: "I wrote the
piece that made the headlines."
This was a reference to the
income and gift tax.
"There's nothing wrong,
there's nothing illegal, there's
nothing immoral, and there is
no conflict of interest in any-
thing I've done or that's come
out," Rockefeller said.
Ford campaigns for
GOP congressmen
LOUISVILLE, Ky. OP)-Presi-
dent Ford campaigned through
three states yesterday urging
the election of Republican con-
gressmen and exhorting the
GOP faithful to press forward
to overcome unfavorable polls.
After five speeches in North
and South Carolina, Ford flew
here to plug for the re-election
of Sen. Marlow Cook and other
members of Kentucky's Repub-
lican slate.
"YOU'VE got an obligation,"
he told an airport crowd at
Greensboro, N. C., "So do I,
and we don't achieve it by sit-
ting on our hands and wringing
our hands and say 'Gee, the
polls look terrible.'
he said may be in prospect.
Referring to the polls, Ford
said, "All the experts say I
can't change the outcome." But
he declared, "It is a lot better
for me to be out here . . . than
sitting around the oval office
wringing my hands:
"I've got a WIN button. I'm
not a loser," Ford added, re-
calling that former President
Harry Truman upset the poll-
sters in 1948 by "fighting for
what he believed was right."
IN URGING Renublicans "to
maximize yolir efforts in the
next 10 days," Ford sa-id "the
stakes are very, very high."
In his prepared comments,
he urged voters to send him Re-
publican Congressmen "to
