Whether or not South ducks
the second round of spades, the
defense would have established
East's spades while East still
possessed an entry to cash
them.
Indeed, if declarer now tries
to make the contract by knock-'
ing out the ace of clubs he willI
suffer a two trick as the defense
collects two clubs and four
spades, ' a total of six iricks.;
In matchpoints especially, South
would be well advised to take
his eight tricks, two spades,,
three hearts, and three dia-
monds, and go home.

provided only $742,000 as did the
citizen's committee, yet Jamie
Kenworthy (D-Fourth Ward)
pointed out CDRS automatically
provides about $.5 million in a
separate grant.
The two parties' major differ-
ence in allocating funds is in
the community services cate-
gory with Democrats proposing
some $2 million and the HRP

necessarv for CDRS,

which

grants $12 million over a six
year period. The citizens' com-
mittee has outlined no such
long-term plan.
A $100,000 recommendation by
the citizens' committee for fire
equipment was blasted by both
parties as a normal city re-
sponsibility and not in the spirit
of CDRS.

Saxon, 55, was characterized:
by one"West Coast observor as
"a rising star" in the Univer-t
sity administration.
M I C H I G AN State Uni-
versity president Clifton Whar-
ton has been named as a
fourth candidate, but his nomi-!
nation is considered unlikely.,
The source indicated that
Fleming would be asked to re-
turn to California for more in-t
terviews with the regentall
se=,rch committee.<
Fleming, however, said last!
night he had had no further
contact with the U-C committeec
since an interview last week-t
end. Asked if he was returning1
for further talks, Fleming ans-
wered, "I don't have any plans
to go to California."
THE SOURCE, who maintains
close relations with several U-C
regents, said yesterday that!
while Fleming was viewed as!
"a very able" candidate, his+
age could be a negative factor.
"The question is, are the re-
gents looking for someone who!
can serve three to eight years,'
or someone who can stay ten to
15 years?", he said.t
The source added that some
of the regents felt "somone
closer to the generational
changes going on" might make
a better president.
S O M E California observ-
ors now say that Saxon may
be the front runner for the
$60,000 a year post. Formerly
the vice chancellor of UCLA,
Saxon was promoted last sum-
mer to the newly created pro-
vost position.
A final decision on the U-C
presidency is expected some-
time within 30 days.

commented.
"There's a point at which
lines have to be drawn, and we
all try to do is draw them in
a non-authoritative way, so as
not to create the Big Mad
Teacher vs. Bad Little Kid re-
lationship," she added.
MURPHY admitted that she
"sometimes feels like I'm at the
end of the line." But, she em-
phasized, "It's the business
that's exhausting, not the kids."
Murphy described the curricu-
lum as "basically practical. We
take nature walks, do plays,
and I teach them about letters
and numbers through games."
She added, "We want to
teach them beginning reading,
too, but we take it easy, take
them when they're ready. You
can't push; you can't throw
abstracts at them too fast."
INITIATED in November
1973 by the Ann Arbor Tribal
Council CCC is the city's second
alternative educational center.
It recently wrote up its elemen-
tary school program and has
constructed a small portable
classroom in which classes will
be held.
Since local health and fire in-
spectors have already approved
the new building, the center on-
ly awaits accreditation by the
State Board of Education.
"As soon as accreditation
comes, we can go all the way
to eighth grade, but we'll pro-
bably stick with elementary,
at least for the present," said
Murphy.
"We're limited by space, but
we're going to try to take12
more than the four school-age
kids we have now," she add-
ed.
In 1971, the highest bank in-
terest rate was that of Brazil at
20 per cent, and the lowest,
that of Morocco at 3 per cent.

YET BOTH parties agree on
the basic intent of CDRS and
attacked the citizen's committee
for failing to develop criteria forI
establishing the priorities of
low and moderate income resi-
dents, as stated in a Democra-

The two liberal parties also

However Kenworthy appeared
less willing to compromise stat-
ing, "It doesn't make a damn
bit of difference whether a mi-

With one HRP council mem-

However, Burns disagreed
with predictions by the Ford
administration's leading econ-
omists that the current reces-
sion may last well into next
year.
He said the recession may
be over sooner than expected,
pointing to the fact that indus-
trial inventories are being li-
quidated at a rapid rate.
"THAT means the declines in
economic activity must come
to an end and very soon"
Burns said.
