A whole series of special services for disabled student is being planned under the program including a special "dial-a-ride"-type van, special scholarships and counseling services, special adaptive devices such as page turners and pencil hold- ers, and job placement services to prevent discrimina- tion against qualified disabled graduates. The program will be run through the Office of Special Services and Programs of the Office of Student Services. Gas rationing a mistake A University business professor says gas rationing would be the worst way to deal with the present energy shortage. Prof. Ross Wilhelm of the Graduate School of Business Administration says the huge bureaucracy necessary to run any rationing program would result in "an enormous mess" including black market and crimi- nal activity. Wilhelm suggests instead indirect rationing by raising the price of gas. He says politicians now clamoring for rationing "seem to have lost their cool and are hell-bent on the greatest overkill we have seen in years." !

Being about as high as anyone could, be I find a moral obliga- tion to help. Did you know a recent Kathmandu survey found freaks favored Michigan more than 3 to 1?

Woodcock said his 1.5-million member union "stands in solidarity with Greek students and others demonstrating against continuation of the Greek dictatorship. We call for an end to U. S. support of this tyrannical government and for free elections in which all Greeks participate." He said the Greek regime had survived on U. S. financial credits and arms since coming to power in 1967 and added that U. S. weapons are now being turned against its opponents.

Senate Nuclear arms said delivered to Egypt WASHINGTON (Reuter) - The Soviet Union probably shipped nu- clear weapons to Egypt during theN October Middle East war, U.S. officials believe, according to the Washington Post. Pentagon spokesman Jerry Fried- heim declined to comment on thet newspaper's report, which said thex nuclear weapons were still be- lieved to be in Egypt although un- der strict Russian control. THE RUSSIAN weapons are be- lieved to be atomic warheadsof Soviet-built Scud missiles, which r :< were reported to have been ship- ped to Egypt before or during the Middle East fighting, the Washing- ton Post said. The Scud missile is said to have i a range of up to 180 miles, which would make it capable of hitting Israeli cities from Egyptian ter- ritory. The usually well-informed Amer- ican magazine Aviation Week re- ported earlier this month that the Soviet Union had sent Scud mis- siles to Egypt and said that the United States had satellite pictures to prove it. ORIGINALLY, U.S.tfficials were reported to believe that the Scud ; missiles in Egypt were armed with conventional, high - explosive war- ; heads. Early this month, a senior De- fense Department official told re- porters there was "no confirma- tory evidence" that the Soviet Union had sent nuclear warheads to Egypt. According to this morning's Washington Post, U.S. officials still are not absolutely certain there The gra are nuclear weapons in Egypt, but Webster' say that "there now is some evi- dence that something is there.

All nine members of the Senate Rules Committee voted to recommend approval of the nomination to the Senate, where a vote is set for next week. THE ACTION followed weeks of investigations and hearings into Ford's personal, political and financial background that began after President Nixon named him to replace former Vice President Spiro Agnew, who resigned Oct. 10. Rules Committee chairman Howard Cannon (D-Nev.) said the panel conducted "an inquiry of historic proportions" on Ford, a Mich- igan congressman and House Republican leader. - Reporting the nomination to the Senate floor, he said the five Democrats and four Republicans acted with the 'very real possibility that the nominee could become President of the United States." HEARINGS ON the Ford nomination continue in the House Judiciary Committee with a vote expected there sometime next week. A House vote is scheduled for no later than Dec. 6. Cannon said the Rules committee voted after discussing three final VICE PRESIDENT - DESIG- NATE GERALD FORD, whose confirmation was recommend- ed yesterday by the Senate Rules Committee.

Look out, through: Christmas is just around the corner. FBI checks on matters related to the financing of Ford's campaigns for his House seat. HE SAID those checks and others produced no information indicating Ford is not eligible to become vice president. In another development, Cannon made public Ford's financialstate- ment showing he had a total net worth of $256,378 as of last Sept. 30. While the Senate Rules Commit- tee decided on the nomination, the House judiciary panel held a closed door session with a Wash- ington lobbyist who has alleged he gave the vice president-designate a $15,000 loan but was never re- paid. THE CHARGE by the lobbyist, Robert Winter-Berger, has been denied by Ford, and the Senate Rules Committee already has dis- credited Winter-Berger's allegation. Some of its members said last week he had given conflicting tes- timony and a probe was being made regarding possibly perjury. Dr. Arnold Hutschnecker testi- fied for more than two hours in closed session before the House Judiciary Committee yesterday but told reporters he had said noth- ing beyond his testimony before the Senate panel that Ford visited him only once for about 15 minutes. Hutschnecker, a New York psy- chotherapist, said many of the House members repeated the same question in different ways-why did Ford visit him? REPORTERS ASKED what that answer is and he said, "Well, peo- ple come by to meet me." Nixon Spromises governors no new scandals lover sings 0 MEMPHIS (Reuter) -President Nixon yesterday assured Republi- can governors he did not know of any political time bombs ticking away that could explode into more sensational headlines about the Watergate bugging scandal. Nixon, carrying his Watergate defense personally to 17 state chiefs, said again that he would not resign and would not permit his declining popularity, as recorded in public opinion polls, to drive him from office. TENNESSEE GOV. W i n f i e l d Dunn told reporters that at the 90-minute meeting the President was asked to comment on a state- ment here yesterday by pollster George Gallup that the Watergate affair was a time bomb that could seriously damage the Republican party in the 1976 Presidential elec- tion. Dunn quoted the President as saying "If there are any (more time bombs) I am not aware of them. If there is any information yet to be revealed, it is information I do not have." The President flew here in an attempt to allay the worries of the Republican governors about the impact of Watergate on their party. HE ALSO HOPED to sweep away any lingering suspicions among the governors that there was more to disclose about the bugging scan- dal. Dunn and three other governors -Robert Ray of Iowa, Christopher Bond of Missouri, and James Hol- shouser of North Carolina - said they were impressed by the ex- planations they heard yesterday. "There was unanimity that the President is moving in the right direction and that he is moving up," Dunn said. THE ANXIETY of the governors to get as detailed an explanation as possible from the President aboutaWatergate was gauged from the fact that almost all the ques- tions put to him dealt with he bugging scandal andhis personal finances. Only a few minutes were spent in a discussion of the energy crisis and other serious domestic pro- grams: Dunn indicated that the President was becoming aware of the serious political situation stemming from the break-in at Democratic party See NIXON, Page 8 ier' praises an actor, a theater own- riter, but rather a South- nessman and University who "has always had always loved them." LLECTION of first edi- modern authors is con- be among the finest in y. Ln believes Miller is pos- ranking contemporary dramatist. "He has suc- written quality work over New Future Worlds lecture program set an extended;period of time. This is one of the criteria for my collec- tions." His collection of Miller material includes plays, short stories, the novel Focus, newspaper and maga- zine articles, half a dozen bi- ographies, interviews, dialogue scripts, theatre recordings and an operetta based on The Crucible. The idea of having the display at this semester's mini-course came to Holtzman after reading about Miller's Michigan adjunct professorship in the New York Times. He contacted Richard Meyer, head of the University's Professional Theater Program, who rejoiced at the idea. There are tentative plans for the collection to be displayed this spring when Miller's play-in-prog- ress, The American Clock, is pre- sented. The books, scripts and pro- grams would be exhibited free of charge and shown with notes and a catalogue. "MY COLLECTION explains my own times to myself." Holtzman says. "History books couldn't do it for me, so I turned to literature. Good works of literature are more truthful and of more value than corresponding works in history." The collection includes approxi- mately twenty-five playwrights and most major authors from 1900 to the present, but Holtzman speaks of William Faulkner and Norman Mailer as special favorites. "Falkner's the best because of content," he says. "He had an exceptional historical location-at the crossroads of two Great themes -the settling of the West and the Civil War.

Skinner and Buckminster Fuller to Hill Aud., will sponsor a second lecture series this year as part of a dourse to be offered winter term. The program is designed to pre- sent to the public problems of the future and possible alternatives that may change or help plan the future. COORDINATOR Jim O'Brien says the program aims "to make this a self-perpetuating project and a growing project." The Tuesday lecture series will be open to they public and will feature such luminaries as Ralph Nader, :Margaret Mead, R. D. L~aing, and Barry Commoner. Pro- aram organizers are still negotiat- inR with Archibold Cox. Jacques O'Brien, last year's participants felt the program emphasized en- tertainment rather than learning. This year, he explains, Future Worlds will attempt to offer both. In essence, says O'Brien, the theme behind the course is: "We don't change the future, we engi- neer it by making attempts to plan the future." The Future Worlds Program has found itself in financial trouble because of the cost of many of the speakers. "BECAUSE OF the outrageous prices that some of the lecturers are asking," says O'Brien, "we will be forced to ask an admission f~.e at some of the lectures. We hate to do it but we have no way around it. Because speaker prices are so high.'' he continued, ''we are looking for additional sources of revenge.

Titled "John Fitzgerald Kennedy, X ; A Reinembrance, Mansfield's tribute was: What is ten years remembered? Is it shots of infamy in a Dallas street? A clinical report of a murder,, Is it a dress dark-splotched with blood? The swollen faces of grief. Is it a rain-filled sky over Washington? A silent throng under the Capitol's dome. Is it two children and a child's single cry? A riderless horse. An intonation in a cathedral. The flickering of a flame.. What is ten years remembered? How much rain beating on a grave-site? How much snow falling and filtered sunlight? How many mind-flashes of a man? Of his humor and humanity................."'.
