Prof. Sally Allen put the following equation on the overhead projector yesterday in her 500-mem- ber Biology 112 lecture: Lactobacillus DNA + mouse DNA =. As the class hubbub died down, she asked the class if they wanted to know the answer. She then completed the equation: Lactobacillus DNA + mouse DNA = soft curd mouse or hairy cottage cheese. If you will remember, a Today item Thursday morning relayed the comments of one elderly visitor to Asslen's genetic class, who said she'd only be impressed with the wonders of recombinant DNA research is scientists could cross a mouse with a spoonful of cottage cheese. Obviously, Allen wasn't too pleased with the "Daily lady's" remarks. "Biological advances are not the type of thing one is likely to hear about on the seven o'clock news," ; Allen concluded severely. a" Boo! ROTC cadets are deadly serious about the Haunted House they're staging this weekendin the basement of North Hall to raise money for UNICEF. North Hall was once a Medical School edifice and in the basement, in the interest of science, were stored dead bodies. So the old morgue, with its damp, dingy walls and low, hanging ceiling, is perfectly adaptable to scaring the living daylights out of you, which is what a bat- talion pf Air Force, Army and.Navy ROTC cadets out of uniform are in- tending to. so. So, today from 7-10 p.m. and tomorrow from 6-9 p.n. let a variety of goblins, goons, and ghosts scare you, for a good cause, too! It's tweak time If you plan to let it all hang down after midnight tonight, make sure you know when midnight is. Yes, tonight is your only chance of the year to tweak Father Time by switching your clock backward an hour at mid- night to commemorate the end of daylight savings time. Of course, Father Time will tweak you back again in April. And of course, you can theoretically set your clock back anytime you want to - tonight, tomor- row, next month. That's the wonderful thing about time - it's flexible. But everybody else will be setting their clocks back tonight, and unless you want to arrive at class an hour early, we suggest that you conform.

The Michigan Daily-Saturday, October 29, 1977-page 3 Israel lifts currency from gov 't control MICHIGAN STUDENT ASSEMBLY -ALL ELECTION CANDIDATE REGISTRATION (9)1 YEAR &A(1) 1/ YEAR SEATS OPEN REGISTER IN M.S.A. OFFICES, 4th FLOOR MICHIGAN UNION BY MONDAY, OCT. 31 For More information Call M.S.A. Offices at 763-3241 JERUSALEM (AP) - Israel, in a major policy shift, announced yester- day it was lifting its currency from gov- ernment control and removing all foreign currency restrictions on trav- ellers and investors. Finance Minister Simba Ehrlich an- nounced the measures after a cabinet meeting. He indicated Israel was moving toward the free market economy that the conservative Likud government had set as its goal. WITH THE END of currency restric- tions, Ehrlich said, "Israel is likely to become a financial center in this part of the world, and especially in the Jewish world." He said "the faith we are creating in our economy" would attract badly needed foreign investment, more than making up for the unlimited foreign currency Israelis may now take abroad. Ehrlich also announced new cuts in subsidies on basic food products and an increase in transportation costs. As a -first step, the price of gasoline was raised Thursday night $1.97 to $2.38 for a gallon of premium. THE NEW PRICE increases meant Israel's inflation rate would match last year's 38 per cent, Ehrlich said, despite earlier government pledges to reduce inflation to 25 per cent. Ehrlich estimated the Israeli pound's value would drop by nearly 50 per cent, from 10.35 to 15 pounds to the dollar. By opening the pound to market influenc- es, the government ended its policy of periodic devaluations that had been in effect since Israel's founding. Experts said the new regulations were likely to kill the thriving black market in foreign currency, where knowledgable visitors received 10 to 15 per cent more for their money than in the banks. EHRLICH SAID hundreds of foreign currency inspectors would be trans fered to the treasury's income tax department. This was bad news for the many workers who make ends meet by cheating on taxes. The former limits on currency Israelis may take abroad led to the res- ignation of Prime Minister Yitzhak. Rabin last December after he and his wife were found illegally holding dollars in a Washington bank account. His government was ousted by the Likud bloc in elections five months later.'

Economy shows increase WASHINGTON (AP) - Govern- ment indicators yesterday reinforced administration predictions of a slight upturn in the economy at the end of this year. The Commerce Department said its index of leading indicators, which is designed to predict economic trends, increased by three-tenths of one per cent in September. ALTHOUGH slight, the increase followed a 1.4 per cent rise for August, the largest increase since March and the second largest in two years. Economists say it takes several months for the indicators to establish a trend. They have increased three months in a row, "starting with a one-tenth increase in July, after two months of slight declines. The August figure was revised up- ward from an eight-tenths increase because of big improvements in net business formation. This indicator measures business spending plans by installation of telephones and other equipment. THE ADMINISTRATION has been counting on businesses to increase their investments to revive the economy at the end of the year. The nation's output of goods and services grew at an annually measured pace of about seven per cent in the first half but slowed to 3.8 per cent in the third quarter. Economists hope it will rise to five per cent in the last quarter to keep unemployment from getting worse. In another report, the Labor De- partment said wage increases in major contracts negotiated so far this year were generally smaller than increases provided under 1976 settlements. Contract settlements in the first nine months of 1977 provided for wage increases averaging 7.8 per cent for the first year of the pact and 5.8 per cent annually over the life of the contract. Settlements negotiated in 1976 provided increases of 8.4 per cent for the first year and 6.4 per cent over the life of the contract. ..4 ." '4 d'S _e .
