Page Eight THE MICHIGAN DAILY Saturday, October 7, 1972 I Group thwarted in attempt to register jail inmates to vote Senate passes no-fault bill (Continued from Page 1) is "no legal bar to anyone who's been indicted or even convicted from registering," he felt the poll conducted by sheriff's deputies was sufficient action in the matter. "I trust the sheriff co-operated with me," Saunders said. "I don't know how much farther I can go besides intervening in behalf of the people who petitioned me, and go- ing directly to Sheriff Harvey.' Saunders had been unwilling to register prisoners until NUJ mem- ber Barbara Cartwright spoke with City Manager Guy Larcom yester- day morning. Meanwhile, in Ypsilanti town- ship, the City Clerk's office refused to register residents of Ypsilanti who are inmates at the county jail. Deputy Clerk Jane Tait said she did not believe she could register prisoners without receiving written notice of the change in policy from someone in authority. Legal basis for prisoner registra- tion came as a result of a decision Thursday by Wayne County Circuit Judge George Bowles, that Wayne ho grAs grid gate?

Critics of the athletic depart- ment charge thaththese fiscal prioritiesare way out of line. They point to the deterioration of intra- mural facilities like Waterman Gym while money is spent for projects like putting Tartan Turf on the football team's practice field. They further claim that the 12 per cent earmarked for intra- murals is a misleading figure. Stempien hits Esch positions State Rep. Marvin Stempien (D- Livonia) yesterday blasted Rep. Marvin Esch's (R-Ann Arbor) views on environmental controls and cuts in the defense budget, in a rare campus visit. Stempien and Esch are both run- ning for the Second Congressional District seat in the U. S. House. Speaking before a political sci- ence class, Stempien claimed Esch had said recently that gov- ernment should have to prove pollution exists. According to a report made last year by an ad hoc committee of students and professors, the 12 per cent figure includes money received from fees chprged at Uni- versity facilities like the golf course and the skating rink, plus money taken from the tuition- supported general fund. If these are subtracted, the re- port states, the athletic depart- ment's actual contribution to the intramural program amounts to only one per cent of its total bud- get. Canham's claim that the ath- letic department is self-sufficient has also been questioned. They point out that some $500,000 from the general fund is allotted to the department each year. In reply, Canham pointed to the special expenditures the athletic department must make out of its own pocket. "If the law school needs its grass cut," Canham comments, "the University picks up the tab. We have to pay for our own main- tenance staff as well as a large security force," he added. Thedispute over where money should be spent has been going on for quite a while and as one observer put it, "As long as the team keeps winning and the fans keep coming, it's not likely to change." County jail inmates must be al- lowed to register to vote. Bowles said prisoners should be registered, and that he would rule next week on the. legality of their registration. The probable date of a decision on the constitutionality of the statute is unknown. Detroit City Clerk George Ed- wards said he was eager to regis- ter the inmates and would do it himself if necessary to meet yes- terday's deadline. To Whiskey, the ball is all (Continued from Page 1) "So we constructed a coat, painted the ball, and let it go, not having any idea what Whiskey's reaction would be. She could have gotten stage fright and just sat there. As it turned out, she took off after it, and I guess some would say a tradition was born." A tradition was born, and so it will continue. Brandy, Whiskey's two-year-old pup, is, in Rodger's words, "incorrigible." Though on- ly Whiskey has been performing thus far, "Brandy is showing en- couraging progress." Many people would like to hear a complicated explanation of the dog's performance, but there real- ly isn't one - "it's just exploiting a hang-up; there must be a gene for ball-pushing in fox terriers, be- cause a number of people I've talked to after games said they also have fox terriers who do the same thing," says Rodgers. Others there may be, but as far as most Michigan fans are con- cerned, there's only one Whiskey. (Continued from Page 1) penses, wage losses, and survivors losses. Other coverage, such as property protection insurance and residual liability insurance will be optional, according to Russell Van Hooser, state insurance commissioner. The bill will signal the end to Michigan's uninsured motorists ,fee, which enables drivers to pay a small sum to the. state rather than buy insurance. In a short news conference after the bill was passed, Milliken said that he was, "extremely pleased," and called the bill, "a major breakthrough" in auto insurance in Michigan. When asked if there were any parts of the bill he would have preferred deleted, the Governor replied, "No, I don't think so. We'll have to experience the bill in operation. It's possible that in one or two years we may want to change some parts, but it's okay for now." Van Hooser praised the exten- sive coverage of the bill, asserting average would be. "The main thing," he said, "is that there will be prompt settle- ment of claims." An aide to Van Hooser suggested that a young man with a family and an ordinary car, now paying approximately $130 for personal protection collision insurance, would pay about $10 less under the new bill. Pointing out that the law requires only personal protection insurance, Van Hooser said that if a person also bought the optional property protection insurance the premiums might increase under the new bill. Under provisions of the bill a person is still liable to be sued in Van Hooser had some reserva-' tions about the clarity of the phrases, "serious impairment," necessary changes can be made when the Legislature returns from their recess on Nov. 27th.
