Take me to the Michigras
If you drop by the Union this evening for the Michigras bash, you'll
be part of the revival of a campus tradition. After a slow start because
one of the floats had trouble making a turn, the 1954 Michigras, for
example, took advantage of brilliant April weather, bringing some
20,000 students out for the carnival atmosphere. We can't promise
equally nice weather, and we haven't heard anything about floats, but
something starts up at 9 p.m.

Baby, you can drive my car
Mary Jane Reilly left her German shepherd, Baby, in the car Wed-
nesday while she made a quick dash inside a grocery store. But the
poor pooch evidently got lonely and decided to follow its owner inside.
So Baby threw the gearshift into drive and went through the front
door, causing $150 in damage to the storefront and car. There were no
injuries. Reilly.got off with a lecture from Saginaw's menin blue about
how dogs aren't supposed to drive cars.
Urine the money
A Miami-based company has announced plans to build a series of
shiny, new public comfort stations around the Haitian capital of Port-
Au-Prince to collect urine as part of a business venture. The facilities
are being constructed by the Rand Research and Development Corp.
which says the urine will be processed to extract enzymes and other
chemicals to be sold in the United States. Talk about wasteful spen-
ding.
On the outside.. .
Today, our heavenly sources tell us, is a forecaster's nightmare:
dull weather. No storms, no floods, no blizzards. Pity. Instead, there'll
be blue skies most of the day with only an occasional cloud poking
through. The high will be a comfortable 28, the low 11, with light nor-
theast winds.

STA TE FUNDS EARMARKED,
Gubernatorial hopefuls get boost
LANSING (UPI)-Nearly $240,000
from the state treasury is headed for
the campaign coffers of two
Democratic candidates for gover-
nor-the first time public funds have
ever been siphoned into a statewide
political campaign.
Attorney General Frank Kelley
yesterday cleared the way for the
payments to Patrick McCollough and
William Ralls with an opinion declaring
that the state's new campaign funding
law has all the legal language needed to
pay out the money.
DEPUTY STATE Treasurer Carroll
Newton said with Kelley's go-ahead,
the money will be released within the
next few days.
Newton said as a rule, the official
paperwork needed for government
checks can be completed within three
or four days.
The money, derived from a $2 check-.
off system on the state income tax
form, had been held up by Budget
Director Gerald Miller.
Ralls, a former Public Service Com-
mission member, and McCollough, a
state Senator, from Deaborn, claimed
this was politically motivated, since
Miller's boss, Gov. William Milliken, is
a Republican.

minimum of $50,000 will be paid $2 in
state funds for every $1 they raise in
contributions of $100 or less.
Ralls, McCollough and state Sen.
William Fitzgerald all have passed the
$50,000 ark, but verification of Fit-
zgerald's claim has not yet been com-
pleted by the Secretary of State's office.
Ralls is supposed to get $122,746 and
McCollough expects $115,062 from the
state fund. Fitzgerald said that when
his claim is verified, he will be getting
about $185,000.
If Kelley, a Democrat, had ruled
against payment of the funds, the
legislature would have had to pass a
new law authorizing it and Milliken
would have had to sign it.
That process could have meant weeks
or months and McCollough said such a
delay would have seriously hampered
the Democrat's campaigns.

CINCINNATI (AP) - A doctor and
a priest say they are appalled a judge
refused to allow a young mother out
of jail to be with her 3-year-old son
when he died.
"I feel strongly that people in
prison should be allowed to visit
loved ones at the time of death," said
the Rev. Thomas Eisentrout, Episco-
pal chaplain at Cincinnati Children's
Hospital, who was with Jamie Sloan
when he died Wednesday from
hepatitis.
JOAN SLOAN, 23, the mother, re-
mained in jail at the order of Fayette
County Common Pleas Judge Evelyn
Coffman. Sloan, convicted on a
charge of trafficking in marijuana,
was held at Washington Court House
to testify in a related case.
"We were told there is no sense in
releasing her just so she can come
down here to watch the kid die,"
complained Dr. Frederick Suchy,
chief resident at the hospital.
Judge Coffman said she "hesitated
in the first place because, from her
standpoint, I thought it would have
been an inhumane thing for her to go
down here and see her child in that
condition."
SLOAN WAS allowed to visit the
boy, under guard, Wednesday morn-
ing, but was returned to the jail-later.
The hospital unsuccessfully sought
to return the mother in the afternoon
when the child took a turn for the
worse, Suchy said.
The judge said she was told "the
baby had only an hour to live." She
said the child would have died by the
time the mother arrived.
"It was a heartbreaking decision. I
have never had to make a decision
like that before," Judge Coffman
said.
Eisentrout said "in studying death,
we have learned that if a mother is
unable to see her child when he dies,
it can cause serious psychological
problems."
Sloan was arrested with three
other women Sept. 23, 1977. Police
found a pisotl and 100 small bags of
marijuana in their van. She was
sentenced to 1 to 10 years in prison.
