The city clerk and administra- tor have been asked by Harris to prepare a list of problems in- curred and recommendations on how to avoid a repeat per- formance of an election which left many voters-largely students -waiting in lines for as long as six hours. Citizens who encoun- tered difficulties in voting are urged to notify the city clerk in writing. Enrollment drops Fewer people are in college in the state these days and pro- portionately fewer of them are men. That's what University as- sistant registrar Ben Munn told a meeting of the Association of Collegiate Registrars and Admissions Officers here yesterday. Munn, who heads the association's Committee on Statistical In- formation and Research, said a survey of the state's universities and colleges shows on-campus enrollment of males is down 4.2 per cent while enrollment for females is off .6 per cent. Allmans to show Despite a series of tragic accidents wiping out their lead guitarist and bassist it now appears the Allman Brothers blues band will be appearing here as scheduled. A cable received yes- terday by the University Activities Center announced that the group is anxious to keep its committment to Ann Arbor and will perform as scheduled Dec. 9. There is no word yet on who is to replace bassist Berry Oakley. Shirley slips An error in unofficial election returns reveals that Circuit Court candidate Shirley Burgoyne has 400 less votes than she thought she had. Burgoyne finished second behind Patrick Con- lin in the race for two seats on the bench. The revised figures show Burgoyne with a precarious 150-vote lead over Edward Deake who finished in third place. According to the Board of Canvassers we won't know who actually took the second court seat until final certification of the results can be made. Bus cutbacks Staying here over turkey time and wondering how you will be able to move about? The answer is not as often and to fewer places. North Campus buses will follow the Sunday schedule Nov. 23-26 running to Bursley-Bates and Northwood every 45 minutes from 8 a.m. to noon and from 8 p.m. to 2 a.m. They will run every 22 minutes from noon to 8 p.m. Commuter buses will not run at all.

Dope notes Federal narcotics officials are now admitting that more U.S. heroin may be coming from Southeast Asia than they had origin- ally claimed. New estimates from the Bureau of Narcotics and Dangerous Drugs (BNDD) say 30 per cent of the heroin entering the country comes from Southeast Asia instead of the five to 15 per cent previously estimated .. . BNDD was very busy yester- day as they also made one of the biggest hashish busts on re- cord. Over 1,100 pounds of hash with a street value of about $50 million were captured in New York and seven persons in- cluding two college teachers were arrested. Market record All future J. P. Morgans and John Rockerfellers have some good news this morning. The Dow Jones average of thirty in- dustrial stocks, Wall Street's most watched stock market barom- eter, closed yesterday above the 1,000 mark for the first time in history. Will Wallace walk? Alabama Gov. George Wallace may never walk again. Ac- cording to the surgeon who removed the bullet from his back last spring, the governor's nerve track has been damaged. "The chances of his recovering from this paralysis are become in- creasingly unlikely," the doctor said. Term paper triumph An attempt by the U. S. Postal Service to smash four Boston- area term paper operations has met with failure in U. S. District Court. District Judge Frank Murray denied a motion by Asst. U. S. Atty. Frederick Kellog requesting the court to halt delivery of the firms' mail. While agreeing the term paper operations are "shabby", the judge told the government it had chosen the wrong way to stop them. Dollar diplomacy? It is axiomatic that wherever the United States goes the Chase Manhattan Bank goes too. And so it seemed inevitable that with the thawing of relations with the U.S.S.R. Chase would move in, and so they have. The international wheeling and dealing concern announced yesterday it will open a Moscow branch office in the near future. It will be the first U. S. bank in the Soviet Union since the 1920's. Peron goes home One time Argentine strongman Juan Peron announced yes- terday he is returning home. The former dictator has lived in Spain since he was deposed in 1955. Person is an almost legendary figure among the Argentine working class and the armed forces who dethroned him two decades ago are reportedly watching for trouble. Peron says he is returning to calm spirits at a difficult time for the country. On the inside .. .

It is the second of a three- part series. By JOEL GREER, MICHAEL OLIN and RANDY PHILLIPS "Virtually all athletic depart- ments in the United States in the last 10 years, due to escalat- ing costs, have been unable to field teams, support recreational programs and pay off bonding issues on their buildings as they had in the previous 40 years." Athletic Director Don Canham made this observation in last month's budget report to the Board in Control of Intercolle- giate Athletics. And while the athletic depart- ment has been able to keep its head above water in recent years, it's beginning to feel the the TM (4 Part 2 strain of a tight budget this year. The recreational and intramur- al (IM) programs are suffering as a result. Woeful neglect of present facilities and the inade- rck of quacy of recreation and intra- mural space are basically the product of a funds shortage. The funding situation is so cri- tical that Rodney Grambeau, di- rector of intramurals and recrea- tion, predicts that all the money from the intramurals' operating budget for the year, will have been exhausted by January. According to the athletic de- partment's budget report, $301,- 022 was spent on intramurals and recreation last year. Over $165,- 000 of that money was paid in s.2lhries and wages, while the re- maining money goes mostly to- wards maintenance of buildings. The budget cannot begin to cover the $1 million in repairs the IM Building needs. On the revenue side, the ath- sufficient letic department received only $141,518 for the intramural de- partment. Of this amount, the University's general fund con- tributed $75,000, while a portion of the $5 per student per term athletic fee - $46,394 - goes to the athletic department to defray IM costs. The balance of reve- nue comes from a towel and locker fee, which overall oper- ates at a loss. Although the report may be slightly inaccurate due to allo- cational errors, the IM depart- ment still costs the athletic de- partment approximately $160,- 000 a year. Last year's deficit is not like- ly to decrease. Canham says, "We're spending more money See IM, Page 7 funds -Daily Photo UNIVERSITY'S IM building: A subject of controversy.

TERM BEGINS: SGC: New hopes, old conflicts By PAUL TRAVIS Daily News Analysis If the members of the new Student Government Council vote their politics rather than their emotions, there will be a strong left-oriented majority on council. The results of the latest election give leftist and left-leaning coun- cilmembers a 10 to three majority. It put the conservative Responsible Alternative Party (RAP) in its weakest position in years. Bill Jacobs, SGC president, be- lieves council could accomplish much this year. He feels that most councilmembers would agree on most of his priority issues, such as helping the all-student University: Housing Council take control of the dorm system. A non-profit grocery co-op, child care centers, complete disclosure of faculty salary lists, are some of the other priority items on his list, "RAP will be unable to block? anything by themselves," said Mil- ler. "They will have to get at least four additional votes for a ma- jority." But there appear to be several1 problems with the new left-wing coalition on council, that have plagued councils in the past. jacoos accts. M a n y councilmembers d o n' t Margaret Miller, the only women trust Jacobs. They feel that Jacobs,f on council, agrees with Jacobs.

The memory of the fraud as top priorities. ' charges after his election adds to the general distrust. The distrust that has carried over from that election has also tarnished the reputation of SGC Treasurer David Schaper. Schaper was Elections Director last spring when Jacobs was elected. RAP has seized upon the split in the left to try to form an alterna- tive coalition. During the last meet- ing, the three RAP members, Bill Dobbs of the Tenants Union Party, Sandy Green of Community Coali- tion, and Dave Hornstein of the Bullshit Party banded together to oust Schaper. They lacked one vote to over- come the GROUP/Integrity six vote bloc. Miller, an independent, said she wouldn't vote on the ques- tion because "it was my first meet- ing and I didn't know enough about Schaper's past actions to decide." Other complaints about GROUP/ Integrity seemed to be focused at this time upon Schaper. Charges against Schaper of hindering the formation 6f student organizations by instituting unneeded forms, fil- ing fees, and a message center that all student organizations must fund have been made by Dobbs. Several members complain that Schaper has increased the amount of paperwork on council to the point of absurdity. "It might be the old adage 'The more compli- cated you make your job, the hard- er it is to fire you,' " suggests Mat Dunaskiss, just re-elected on the RAP ticket. Schaper feels that his opponents are conducting a "smear" cam- paign against him. "I don't enjoy spending hours drawing up forms. But they are all needed. I think it tion of 8,000 persons along a 32-mile stretch of Lake Erie in the state extending north from the Ohio border in what Monroe County Civil Defense Director Harold Quil- lin called "the worst flooding I've seen here in 18 years." Nearly four feet of flood water was re- ported in the area. Monroe County officials said damage likely will exceed $1 mil- lion, with hundreds ofchomes in- undated by lake water. Meanwhile, officials in Bayl County, northwest of Detroit, be- gan evacuating some 7,000 persons from low-lying beach areas along the southwest shore of Saginaw Bay on Lake Huron. The National Weather Service issued a storm tide warning and water was re- ported nearly four feet above first- floor levels of many cottages in the area. Nearly all breakwaters in a 10- mile stretch of Saginaw Bay were destroyed, officials said. Willard Grevel, director of the Bay City water works, said sand bags were put near water wells close to Saginaw Bay to prevent Scontamination should further flood- ing occur. On the Michigan shoreline, gale I force winds gusted to 43 knots and sent 6- to 12-foot waves crashing into many areas as water levels for the Great Lakes and Lake St. Clair near Detroit reached record - heights. All Monroe County schools were opened to serve as emergency areas. Rain was driven by winds up to 40 miles per hour across north- western Ohio, causing flooding to Lorain, Erie, Ottawa and Lucas counties. The Red Cross set up evacuation centers and provided food in Ohio and Michigan. Floodwaters engulfed the resort city of Luna Pier near the Ohio border, and most of the commun- ity's 1,600 residents were evacu- ated. Army pvt. cleared of iV 'fragging' SAN FRANCISCO (Reuter) - A U.S. army private yesterday was acquitted of the hand-grenade "fragging" deaths of two American army officers in South Vietnam last year in the first such trial in the United States.' Standing at attention, Pvt. Billy Dean Smith listened as a jury of seven career army officers (five white and two black), all Vietnam veterans, found him not guilty on two counts of murder, two counts of attempted murder, one count of wounding an officer with a hand- grenade and one count of assault on the army sergeant who arrested him. However, the military court con- victed Smith, a black, of assaulting the sergeant who seized him an hour and a half after the two white officers were slain at Bien ioa army base March 15, 1971. During the court-martial Smith denied on the witness stand that he had murdered or plotted to kill the officers. He testified he had been smoking marijuana with friends at the time of the slayings. The jury's decision automatically will be reviewed by Maj. Gen. Harold Moore, commanding gen- eral of Ft. Ord, and can be ap- pealed as high as to the U.S. Court of Military Appeals. t ti r ,. r k i I r tf S Bond disillusioned by '72 election outcome By CINDY HILL Disillusionment and bitterness were evident as Georgia legis- lator and black political activist Julian Bond discussed last week's presidential election.
