The Michigan Daily-Tuesday, October 11, 1977-Page 9, Heavens ir governors scurry for better vol CONCORD, N.H. (AP)-Republican governors announced yesterday the theme of their campgain to increase their waning numbers-states' rights versus the federal government. I cally, it's the same theme used by mocrat Jimmy Carter in winning the pesidency. v. Robert Bennett of Kansas, chair- an of the Republican Governors sociation, told GOP office-holders a d candidates at the opening session of i group's two-day annual meeting hire yesterday that states' rights is the i ue of the future. e. Antiw ar win peace priz e (Continued from Page 1). International has promoted since its inception in 1961." THE ORGANIZATION appealed to thie public everywhere to sign its peti- tion -to every government and the United Nations seeking the release of prisoners who do not advocate vio lence and who are imprisoned for their religious beliefs, race or lan- guage. . Williams told reporters in London: "We've only been going 14 months ahd 9ther people have been going for years. But I know how hard we worked and perhaps after all we have earned it." Moved to tears by the news, Corrigan said in Belfast: "I accept the prize on behalf of everyone throughout the world who works and longs for peace and the many people who have suffere and have been jailed in the interests of promoting peace." THE PRIZES are worth $141,600 to Williams and Corrigan, and $145,000 to Amnesty International. Amnesty was the 10th organization to wntepaep co e1 alled the yeaR dedicated to prisoners of con- science." s''The organization, it said, "has given practical, humanitarian and unpartial support to people impris- oned because of their racial, reli- gious or political beliefs." AMNESTY WAS founded in 1961 by British attorney Peter Benenson. Sean MacBride of Ireland, a former peace prize winner, once served as its chairman. It claims to be the world's largest human rights organi- zation, with about 100,000 members in 78 countries, a budget of $1.5 million and: a file of 4,000 current cases. The organization attempts to win freedom . for political prisoners through publicity and lobbying, sends ,them packages and letters, cares for their families, and hires lawyers and keep watch on their court cases. The Nobel committee cited the Ulster women's "initiative to end the violecOe which has marked the unfortunate disintegration in North- ern Ireland, and which has cost so many lives. "IF THERE is a hope for sanity in government, it lies with the governors and with the individual states, and not with the Congress and certainly, under current circumstances, not with the White House;" Bennett said. "We meet at a time when states rights are seriously questioned at the national level." Five of the nation's 12 Republican governors attended the opening session: of the meeting, at which strategies for capturing state house jobs throughout the nation and reversing the trend of GOP losses in past elections were discussed. Twenty-six candidates or prospective candidates from 16 states also were present. Carter used as a campaing theme the issue of a federal government grown too large and a bureaucracy too com- plex to serve the people. ~er app HE SAID he would reorganize and streamline the federal government to make it more responsive. Since taking office, he obtained passage of legislation allowing. him to make. reorganization proposals for individual branches of government. He already has proposed an executive branch reorganization plan, and others are, being prepared. Gov. James Thomson of Illinois, one. of the few Republicans to win important elections last year and chief executive of a state where Democrats outnumber Republicans nearly 2-1, echoed Ben- nett's call for reviving the old Democratic battle cry of states' rights. He said GOP candidates may have to. step outside their own party image in order to win, and he advised candidates' to "watch partisanship, watch it very closely. eal "A CANDIDATE has to build special bonds outside the party, between him- self and the electorate," Thomson said. "When you go at the Democrats and the Democratic philosophy, you risk alienating the very people whose sup- port you want." Democrats have been winning elec- tions by using the Republican themes of less government and fewer taxes and making them appear more meaningful to voters, Thomson said. He urge GOP candidates to talk about the importance of jobs and the effect inflation has on workers' paychecks or retirees' Social Security checks. "Don't worry about sticking to one rigid; solid Republican doctrine, because you will find there is none," said Thomson, urgining. candidates to interpret Republican principles based on the needs of their states. on Angc 0 12 (continued from Pa k 1) a museum, the Angell Hall facilities will be open to public viewing. THE ITINERARY for each Friday night also includes a short talk and film. Oct. 13, associate professor of as- tronomy Guenther Elste will be speak- ing, and the film Universe will be shown. Astronaut Robert Fesen and Stars & Star Systems will be featured Oct. 20, and the series will close with Alan Koski and Cosmic Form Oct. 27. TAs at the University also spend a lot of time analyzing data from the Univer- sity's facilities at Cerro Tololo in Chile and Kitt Peak, Arizona. Much of the. work concerns strange space phenomena such as the ubiquitous qua- sar (a radio-emitting point in space) or the Seyfert galaxies (in which explo- sions and other activities are continu- ally going on). "WE REALLY don't know mue.i about quasars," says graduate student and TA Bill Blair. "So there's import- ant work being done here. But if you spend that much time involved in one thing you're bound to be a little crazy." Crazy is the word. Witness the kind of leisure activities the astronomy peoO indulge themselves in: the record (- riding a bike through the 10th floor hayts of the Dennison Building is 12.54 secon- ds. For running up all 20 flights of. stazirs, while touching every step:"4 seconds fla..- Still, despite all the hazards 'of becoming starstuck - or of taking the universe for granted -, can astron- omers still experience the sense of won- der that creeps into the rest of us at our first glimpse of stellar beauty? "Sure," Blair answers. "Very much so. It's awfully easy to become immune to what you're looking at, but when you stop to think about it all -- it's amaz- ing!" 1-STOP SHOPPING SAVES MONEY, TIME, ENERGY i I I vi T A I L, I -- I PRICES GOOD THRU SATURDAY OCTOBER 15, 1977.
