Ousted FBI agent calls

Jackson Browne, live!
Most students returned home after the Jackson Browne concert
Wednesday to blare their stereos and reflect on the lyrics of the songs.
But Alice Lloyd residents had a big surprise - a visit from the star
himself. A Lloyd resident had written Browne a letter and asked him
to come by and party after the concert. Browne said that as a rle he
and the band decline those offers, but "we had Thursday off and well,
we had never been to a dorm, so we figured why not?" Browne and his
band hung around Lloyd for about two hours just rapping and partying
with admiring fans.
Did they or didn't they?
On Thursday afternoon Mike Van Lent, a first year Engineering
student, said the Bursley Board of Governors wrote out a check to him
for $400 dollars to buy "lots of beer and food" for a party held out at
Bursley on March 31. The fourth floor Van Hoosen resident denied that
any of the money was used to buy drugs, despite the fact that the
Board of Governors have lost their leases for admitting that they ap-
proved half of the $400 for some joints that appeared late on the eve of
the Hash Bash on 4th Van Hoosen.

times we've said "begin bright and early today"? By now it is really
trite, especially when we use it to describe the first event of the day
whether it begins at 7:00 or at 1;00. But today it is really applicable)

Harboring ducks
Squawky, Annabella and Taffy can keep their home in the Bronx.
The three are ducks, and on Monday Criminal Court Judge Stanley
Parness dismissed a summons issued by the American Society for the
Prevention of Cruelty to Animals against the Robert Benedick family
who had been charged with "harboring ducks." The society charged
the Benedicks'were violating the city health laws against keeping "a
live rooster, duck, goose or turkey in a built-up portion of the city."
But at a hearing in Criminal Court, City Councilman Jerry Crispino,
who represented the Benedicks, argued the Benedicks, far from living
in a "built-up" neighborhood, have a one-family house with a large
back yard "four blocks from Westchester County." Parness dismissed
the charges and said the ducks could stay put. The ASPCA later ac-
cused the judge of being a quack. Only in New York.

Rock and rift
The city of Salem, Oregon will soon have its own $31,000 pet rock -
or at least that's what detractors are calling a 30-foot concrete
monolith rising on a city-owned island in the Williamette River. The
concrete rock is for the benefit of budding mountaineers who want to
practice close to home. Oregon has plenty of real rocks, but the moun-
tain climbers did not want to drive the 50miles or so up to the
cascades. The rock, financed under the federal Comprehensive Em-
ployment and Training Act, has caused a flap among city council
members who didn't hear about the construction until after it began. A
move to stop construction last week failed on a 4-to-4 vote.
Close encounters
After two reported sightings of unidentified hopping creatures,
Wisconsin Humane Society officials confess they're still on a "wild
kangaroo chase." There aren't any missing kangaroo reports on file,
nor any records of kangaroo ownership in the area, except for the ones
at the nearby Milwaukee County Zoo. But that doesn't help Jill
Haeselich, who would like more proof that what she saw in her back

yard Wednesday was really what she saw. "It was pretty quick. It was
hopping. We knew it had to be a kangaroo," Haeselich said.
Wakesha police said last week that a woman reported seeing a car
strike one of two kangaroos crossing an intersection about 10 miles
from the Haeselich home. The woman said the animal that was hit was
able to hop away. "We're on a wild kangaroo chase at the moment,"
said Albert Keller, manager of the Humane Society.
On the outside.. .
Today we can expect a high of about 480 with partly cloudy to
mostly cloudy skies and light winds. There will be a slight chance of a
few sprinkles. Tonight, look for a low of a cool 280 and Sunday, expect it
to be a little warmer, with a high of 530 and mostly cloudy skies.

Bell's action

NEW YORK (AP) - The ousted head
of the FBI's biggest field office said
yesterday that attempts by Attorney
General Griffin Bell to discipline him
have bypassed FBI Director William
Webster, setting a potentially
dangerous precedent.
FBI Assistant Director J. Wallace
LaPrade, replaced yesterday as head
of the bureau's New York regional of-
fice, also said he doubted that he could

By STEVE SHAER
"I think this bank is screwy," said
Susan Hartwig, a University junior,
about the new savings account sur-
charge at the Ann Arbor Bank and
Trust.
As of April 1, a fee of 50 has been
levied for each withdrawal in excess of
four each month, unless the account.
maintains a balance of $2,000 or more.
"It's disgusting," said Mary Moore, a
medical student, "I'm changing my
account ifI can find a better bank."
According to a bank spokesman, "We
are charging this because some people
use a savings account like a checking
account and it costs the bank money.
These people should have a checking
account."
"It is dumb. I don't think you should
have to pay an extra charge to take out
your money," said junior Rich Door-
nbos.
The would-be Ann Abor savings ac-
count depositor might do well to shop

around before choosing a bank.
There are other banks in Ann Arbor
using similar tactics which can make it
more economical for students to have
checking accounts.
Huron Valley National Bank, also
charges 50 each withdrawal after the
fourth in one month on its passbook
savings accounts. Statement savings
accounts have interest compounded
monthly and no minimum balance is
required.
Ann Arbor Trust has no charge for
their savings accounts but interest is
not received with less than $100 in the
account.
National Bank and Trust and Great
Lakes Federal, formerly Ann Arbor
Federal Savings, have no fees on
savings accounts regardless of the
number of withdrawals made.
Kay Parker, a senior, says the new
levy by Ann Arbor Bank and Trust
"stinks, I don't see h6w they can justify
using our money and then charging
us."

it occurs." He continued:
"It appears to me that the attorney
general is not allowing the director of
the FBI to run the FBI . . . Ad-
ministratively, I think that's wrong. I
think it's really wrong."
He added that "the director has told
me he would do everything he could in
his position" to support LaPrade and
"I feel that he's in the middle."
THERE WAS NO immediate respon-
se from Bell or Webster. But the White
House responded to LaPrade's claim in
his news conference Thursday that

those that led to the indictment of for-

guidelines change and what was con-
