It's no joke, really. The University

Programs
is offering
a
book of ten tickets for just ten dol-
lars. The book entitles you to see
whatever show you wish, and sit in
whatever seat you can get at the
time you exchange each coupon for
a ticket. The coupons can be used
all at once, e.g. ten people can use
one book for one show; or the cou-
pons can be used individually.

Two conservatives and a lib-
eral won election to the city's
Board of Education June 10, as
voters rejected a proposed 1.3
mill property tax increase to
cover school operating costs
over the next five years.
The winners were Republican-
backed candidates Wendy Bar-
hydt and Peted Wright and lib-
eral-endorsed Tanya Israel.
Their victories bring member-
ship on the school board to a
6-3 conservative to liberal bal-
ance, since they replace three
conservatives who did not seek
re-election. ,
BARHYDT (the top runner
with 6,913 votes), interpreted
her victory as a sign voters
agree that 'we've got to teach
the basic skills" and that "dis-1
cipline is important."
Wright stressed the issue of

schools."
Israel, who was endorsed by a
coalition of Democrats known
as the "liberal caucus" gar-
nered 6,027 votes. She expressed
"extreme disappointment" at
the defeat of the school millage
proposal, but predicted, "This'
will be a more open, more co-.
operative kind of board, at
least this is my hope."
DURING THE school b oa r d
campaign, conservative candi-
dates called for increased cen-
tralization of curriculum control,
while liberals and radicals term-
ed coordination a route to un-
necessary rigidity.
The liberal-endorsed and Hu-
man Rights Party (HRP) candi-
dates strongly criticized Plan
F, a proposal which would re-
locate about 800 elementary and
secondary school students by
busing North Campus children
to relieve overcrowding at Hur",
on High School.
In vote totals compiled at
Pioneer High School on election
night, the candidates lined up as
follows: Barhydt, 6,913; Wright,

LIBERAL ELLIOT Chikofsky,
who withdrew his candidacy too
late to remove his name from;
the ballot, received 337 votes.
The millage was proposed to
cover "operating expenses" of
the city's schools over the next
five years - including inflation
costs, maintenance, and crea-
tion of curriculum co-ordinator
and attendance counselor posts.
The majority of the candidates
supported passage of the mill in-
crease, which was defeated by
more than 1,800 votes.
THE ELECTION drew some
16,000 votes, 1,000 more than
turned out last year. Typically,
voting was sparse in the stu-
dent-dominated First and Se-
cond Wards.
HRP candidates Astrid Beck,
who received 2,446 votes, com-
mented, "It becomes evident
to me that the liberals in this
town aren't going to win elec-
tions until they align themselves
with the student voters."
Beck and HRP hopeful Larry
Mann ran on a radical platform
of community and student con-
trol of the schools. Beck said
the returns were "very incon-
sistent" because voters defeated
the millage increase but elect-
ed candidates who supported the
tax hike, which HRP opposed.
MANN, 14, ran a write-in
campaign after school officials
refused to accept hisnominat-
ing petitions, citing state laws
prohibiting peple under 18 from
holding elected office.
He received 304 votes, a low
total compared to approximately
1,500 garnered by 15-year-old
HRP candidate Sonia Yaco in
1972.
Mann pointed out that HRP
ran a "stronger campaign" for

dicted the crowded field of -nod-
erate, liberal and radical candi
dates could bring another con-
servative victory. Those oppos-
ing the conservative hopefuls
included 'Beck, Cash, Chikofsky,
Israel, Mann, and Simpson.
According to board member
Henry Johnson, also University
Vice President for Student Ser-
vices, "A fantastic number of
excellent candidates have been
competing over the liberal vote
- and they've tended to negate
one another."
The surprise element in June's
election, however, a prolifera-
tion of conservative candidates.
On election night, outgoing
school board member Theodore
Heusel claimed Israel won a
seat because of a crowded con-
servative field. Besides the7
three Republican-backed candi-
dates - Barhydt, Wright, and
Bielby - hopefuls Binder and
Kolasa split.the conservative
support, Heusel contended.
AFTER THE millage defeat,
Secretary to the Board of Edu-
cation Leroy Cappaert' said he
could not predict the precise
budget cuts which will result
from the los of hoped-for re-
venues.
The millage would have gen-
erated $1 million annually for
the next five years.
SThe schools had not prepared
a list of items to be 'cut from
the operating budget in case the
millage failed. Although Super-
intendent Harry Howard h a d
proposed ways of spending the
millage revenue, Cappaert said
the items in that proposal, in-
cluding creation of curriculum
co-ordinator and attendance
posts, will not necessarily lose
their funding, since the board
can revise the whole school
budget.

E We at "The Michigan Daily" would like to take this oppor-
tunity to welcome you to the University of Michigan and Ann
Arbor-whether for the first or tenth time. As you may or may
not know, the "Daily" is the voice of the students here at the
University. It is managed and edited by the students under
the protective eyes of the Board for Student Publications
which is made up of University students, faculty and staff. In
other words, we are completely independent of control by
the Regents.
This somewhat unique freedom is highly valued by our staff.
We consider it to be the main difference between us and other
college papers you may have had contact with. Other differences include:
0 We publish 6 days a week.
0 Our staff is composed entirely of students (i.e. our Business Manager and Editors
are students).
0 We are one of the few remaining let terpress papers in the country which means
we can do the printing on our premises with our antique press.
" We have a staff of professional printers.
* We don't steal any of your tuition money.
0 AND WE HAVE A NICKEL COKE MACHINE FOR STAFF MEMBERS.
Our above-mentioned freedom also has its drawbacks-most notably since we don't ap-
propriate any University funds we must rely solely on circulation and advertising rev-
enues to keep going.
The "Daily" publishes Tuesday thru Sunday mornings during the academic year and Tues-
day thru Saturday during the summer.
It is filled with University news as well as national and local news. The sports staff con-
centrates on University sports for the most part, but also covers professional teams. And
our classified ads are filled with interesting personals as well as the normal informative
what your particular interests are. There will be a Mass Meet-
ing for interested parties tentatively scheduled for Thursday,
September 12 at 7:30 p.m. Feel free to come to the meeting
or drop by our offices at 420 Maynard St. anytime and talk
to our 'staff. We will be happy to show you around.
This is your newspaper! We need your support. If you are
unable to assist with the operation of the paper, we would
appreciate your financial and moral support in the form of a
subscription. Simply fill out the form below and mail it to The
Michigan Daily, 420 Maynard, Ann Arbor 48104 or call 764-
