Monday was also election day in Ypsilanti and a paltry 22 per cent of the voters showed up at the polls. George Goodman, a Democrat, was elected the city's first mayor-at-large as he garnered some 62 per cent of the vote. The four City Council races were divided evenly between Democrats and Republicans. In their first bid for the council in Ypsilanti, the Human Rights Party came within eight votes of victory in the Third Ward. Monday just wasn't HRP's day.

Poetic pugilist LONDON - Ex-World Heavyweight champion Muhammad Ali has been invited to run for the post of professor of poetry ,at Oxford University. Ali who has turned out such poetic master- pieces as "I'll be peckin' and a pokin' and pour water on his smokin'" to describe his fight with Joe Frazier is currently recovering from a broken jaw he suffered in a fight last Satur- day. All was nominated by two Oxford fellows who say the offer is not a joke. One conceivable drawback to the post, how- ever, could be its limited financial remuneration - only $750 a year. Dope note BALTIMORE - A member of the Maryland General Assem- bly was charged yesterday with transporting 10 million dollars worth of heroin. Bond for the delegate, James Scott, was set at $30,000 after he was arrested on a street outside the state Capitol. Police tried to make the arrest in the Capitol itself but several legislative officials protested charging that such' a move violated the code of ethics. He was allowed to walk out the door where he was picked up by an unmarked car. Such are the privileges accorded a white-collar criminal in this country. No reunion LONDON - The hopes of Beatle fans the world over were dealt a cruel blow yesterday by none other than the band's ex-drummer and movie star Ringo Starr. Ringo told reporters at Heathrow Airport that the chances of the group coming back together again are "absolutely remote." Speculation about a pos- sible reunion increased Monday when it was learned that Beatle business manager Allen Klein had lost his control of the group's financial affairs. ; On the inside . ., . . . the Arts Page features Gloria Smith with a re- view of last weekend's Bette Midler concert . . . the Edi- torial Page takes a look at the spiraling cost of meat . . . and the Sports Page has Leba Hertz with a preview of the American League pennant race.

Lawyer, By RALPH VARTABEDIAN, to con est alcohol The use of a behavior-controlling drug by Washtenaw County courts to stem the consump- tion of alcohol in "problem abusers" has involved 15th District Court Judge Sandorf Elden in a class action civil suit which may threaten the court's alcohol abuse program. Questions court's drug treatment i The program, praised by some as the most effective known means of reducing alcohol-re- lated traffic fatalities and condemned by others as a violation of individual freedoms, makes ex- tensive use of a drug called Antabuse. The drug, which is ingested orally, is intended to control compulsive drinking. It is supposed to remain inert in the body for a long period of time. However, when consumed with even small quantities of alcohol, the drug causes violent physical reactions such as vomitting, hyperventil- ation and vertigo, among others. Participation of alcohol offenders in the Anta- buse program is voluntary, but refusal to partici- pate results in a jail sentence. James Wortley, probation officers for 15th District Court, said, "If an alcohol offender refuses to participate in the program, we turn to the alternative-namely jail sentence and fine." The current controversy threatening the pro- gram stems from a complaint filed March 22 by Wayne State University Law Prof. Morten Cohen on behalf of his client Edward Tomalak. Tomalak, arrested for driving under the in- fluende of alcohol last July, was sentenced by Elden to eight months on Antabuse in addition to $100 fine and $125 court costs. This was Toma- program lak's first arrest for an alcohol-related offense. After beginning treatment'on Antabuse, Tama- lak complained of exttreme drowsiness and falling asleep during waking hours, although he was consuming no alcohol. He was urged by Wortley to continue taking Antabuse, as discontinuing the drug would constitute a probation violation. Program participants are required to sign a sworn contract pledging them to maintain their intake of Antabuse at specified levels. Shortly after, Tomalak stopped taking his Antabuse and no longer reported to his probation officer or porgram workers. Tomalak, like others on Antabuse, is required to consume Antabuse See LAWYER, Page 2 IF N. VIETS INVADE council holds last session The 'Democratic -tHuman Rights Party controlled City Council met in a final marathon session last night to deal with such controver- sial Issues as the Eisenhower Paik- way extension and the relocation of Lansky's junkyard. As of 1 a.m. this morning neither matter had been voted on. Outgoing Mayor Robert Harris took advantage of the occasion to deliver some parting remarks on the state of the city government. In an attack on amateurism and decentralization in government, Harris told the council "the neigh- borhood has too much of' an upper hand and is increasing its power towards s u b v e r t i n g city-wide goals." He also said the government has failed to deal with long range planning in a' serious fashion. He blamed this situation on the inexperience of council members and called for an extension of council terms to four years from the present two years. Controversy builds over TM funding By HAROLD FELLION Increased recreational facilities for the University next year are al- most a certainty, but location and cost of the facilities is a matter of controversy over funding. Four years of planning and dis- cussion reached the final stages today when the Executive Officers of the University submitted their proposal for the new facilities to the Advisory Committee on Re- creation, Intramural and Club Sports (ACRICS) for their sugges- tions andsapproval before a final proposal is sent on to the Board of Regents. The Executives' four-part plan called for the conversion of Yost Field House to a year-round icel rink, the remodeling of the pres- ent ice rinkato house intramural struction of a Ferry field building to house indoor track and tennis and the construction of two new intramural buildings. The first three parts of the plan, to be funded by money provided from intercollegiate sports, met no resistance and will probably be implemented by fall, if approved by the Regents. The fourth part of the plan how- ever, ran into immediate resist- ance from students on ACRICS. See I-M, Page 8 may renew Viet bombing Richardson explains extent of involvement By The Associated Press Secretary of Defense Elliot Richardson said yesterday the United States would have to consider "reintroduction of U.S. air support" if Hanoi launched another massive invasion of South Vietnam. But he said such an invasion is unlikely and that he be- lieves South Vietnamese forces could defend themselves against anything short of that without U. S. help. Richardson also said he could not answer the question of whether American bombing in Cambodia could become a long-term commitment. "It has to be looked at on a day to day basis," he replied. Our objective is to bring about full compliance with the ceasefire agreement." The secretary refused to give- details on the size of the U. S. Cambodia bombing campaign butLSk t -pres. said it it "nothing like" the De- cember blitz bombing of Hanoi and Haiphong. Richardson, testifying before the House defense appropriations subcommittee, said Hanoi is un- likely to launch another massive invasion of the South like the one last spring and added: "But if they should do so then the United States would have to consider, if it were critical to the survival of South Vietnam, rein- troduction of U. S. air support." Richardson said he believes "the odds are somewhat better than even" that peace will be maintain- ed in Vietnam. ,Richardson also declared thet jpurpose of giving U. S. aid to Ha- noi is to maintain the ceasefire by strengthening the North Vietna- mese who want to rebuild their country against what he called the "handful of people" who dominat- ed them and waged the war. But under lengthy questioning ffrom Rep. Robert Sikes, (D-Fla.), Richardson said no U. S. aid will AP Photo be given to Hanoi without Congres- sional approval.

Klein and Barquist were elected early in the evening during the second - round counting, of the complicated proportional repre- sentation ballots. The PESC candidates won 591 votes in this round, with 589 needed to win. Competing candidates Jim Glick- man and Louis Meldman of the Bullshit Party received 271 votes and Ron Strauss and Pamela Boyd of CLAMP received 314 votes dur- ing this round. By midnight last night, only Kathy Kolar, also of the PESC party, had been elected of the oth- er at-large candidates, with 103 of the 99.5 needed votes. The counting is expected to last well into the morning. The LSA election, on page three of the all-campus ballot, was re- portedly not affected by the fraud that has marked this year's elec- tion. The ballots were released by Central Student Judiciary Chair- man Ron Henry for hand counting in what LSA Vice-President for Academic Affairs Bob Stephens termed an "emergency move." "We're doing the best we can under the circumstances with the SGC fraud," said Stephens. "We're returning to a system that pre- dates computers." Bill Crawford, an LSA member and a math whiz who has helped with the counting, called the move ''moving forward into the past.' "It can be done," said Stephens. "We'll prove it. Even if it takes a long time."~ 'Ann Arbor is basic- ally a middle-of-thie- roa( cor munity.' -M(ayor-elect Stephensoni 'SUBVER TING EDUCA TION' Kelley tkig By DAN BLUGERAN Term papers are the central issue in a' court suit pitting Write-On, Inc.--a state licensed corporation-and their right to sell custom research against'the University's charge that they are "subverting the educational process."

Gilster signed leases for next year for both his present room and another room in 'a different house in Baits. He had hoped to cancel the first lease, but the Housing Office has informed him that they will honor only the first he signed. Confusion over the cancellation of leases has arisen due to a change in policy by the Housing Office. In past years, dorm leases were binding from the time they were signed.
