RESEARCH STARTS THIS WEEK

"We aren't creating any monsters. We're not:
tampering or mutilating genes."
- Prof. Golder Wilson
A lab ce
(Continued from Page 1)
The gene being sought is one of many
genes which control production of
protein. 1
As the cell divides, the scientists will
note how a gene or one chromosome in-
teracts with another chromosmalgene.
Sometimes the genes get mixed when
the cell divides, and the mix-up can
lead to permanent change and abnor-
malities, Schmickel said.
WHEN SUCH chromosomal con-
fusion occurs, it can cause birth defec-
ts.
Working within the same lab as Sch-
mickel and Wilson, but at different
../
rti ied
times, Jackson and his assistant Rex
Chisholm will study how the genes in a
monkey virus cause cancers in mice.
By injecting mice with the monkey
virus, Jackson will try to deduce which
genes are responsible for causing can-
cer and how the protein products of
these genes interact with the mouse
cell's genes to make a normal cell can-
cerous.
Two other labs are being remodeled
to accommodate P3 level research, but
University officials say there are no
immediate plans to conduct recom-
binant DNA research in them.
Everything in
the lab is functioning as, it should."

Justice Department lawyers had rec-
ommended that no jail term be
assessed Helms and the former CIA di-
rector mentioned that "understanding"
to Judge Parker.
"This court doss not consider itself
bound by that understanding," the
judge said, explaining he could impose
a jail sentence.
Helms could be sentenced to one year
in jail and fined $1,000. The minimum
sentence is one month in jail and a $100
fine, but even that could be suspended.
THE GOVERNMENT charged that
Helms failed to answer "fully, com-
pletely and accurately," on Feb. 17,
1973 when he was asked by the Senate
Foreign Relations Committee about
CIA involvement in efforts to prevent
Allende's election.
And it said on March 6, 1973, during
another appearance before the commit-
tee, Helms was asked questions about
his knowledge about United States
government policy with respect to the
1970 Chilean elections.
"Again, Helms failed to answer those
questions fully and completely as
'equired by law," said a statement of
facts filed by the government.
The 'statementisaidtHelms knew at
the time he testified that in 1970 "the
CIA carried out a covert operation ap-
proved by the Forty Committee." That
committee was composed of top-
ranking military, diplomatic and in-
telligence officials.
"Mr. Helms also knew at the time he
testified that the Forty Committee had
approved actions and money to prevent
Allende's selection in the Oct. 24, 1970
run-off election and to encourage by
economic pressure and other means ac-
tion by the Chilean military to prevent
Allende's accession to the presidency."
Allende was killed in a Sept. 11, 1973,
military coup.
Helms, 64, was director of the CIA
from 1966 to 1973 and served as U.S.
ambassador to Iran from then until last
year.
JACK GATE STAR
SUTTON, Mass. (AP) - Jack
Nicklaus is easily the top gate
attraction in professional golf, a fact
proven by the 1977 Pleasant Valley
Classic. Ticket, sales were well in
excess of $50,000 over the 1976 renew-
al of the tournament.
A few days before the tourna-
ment began, the phones were ringing
non-stop inquiring about tickets and
most of the callers asked if it was
definite that Nicklaus would play.
Jack did and finished second to Ray

ed against leftist political and ethnic
organizations.
AT LAST Tuesday's MSA meeting,
organizations board members said
SOB was reconsidering its office
space decision and would have a new
proposal this evening.
SOB members said they were able
to come up with additional office
space by cutting back the amount of
space each group receives and by
doubling up many groups in single
offices.
The new groups which would get of-
fices under the revised plan include:
The Iranian Students Association of
Ann Arbor and Ypsilanti, The Iran-
ian Students Association of the U-M
and Eastern Michigan University,
The Spartacus Youth League, W8UM
(the Radio Club), The Revolutionary
Student Brigade, The Turkish Stu-
dents Association, and the Chinese
'eq uests
Students Organization.
Others include: The Video Coop,
Science for the People, the Computer
Club, Student International Medita-
tion Society, Leaping-Lesbians News-
letter, the United Farm Workers
Support Committee, The Pigeon
River Project, Indian~Students Asso-
ciation, East Wind, Association for
Critical Social Science and Women in
Communications.
STUDENT Organizations Chair-
woman Michele Sprayregen said the
conflict over student office space is
"far from over. We need more office
space and we're the ones who have tot
fight for that."
At last night's meeting, the board
also approved a set of guidelines for
student groups with offices.
The guidelines, which go to MSA
for approval, would require each
group to keep office hours at least 10
hours a week.

NEWS FROM THE
MAJOR EVENTS OFFICE
The music business has developed into
gargantuan big business. The biggest
name acts in the business are playing.
fewer cities on each tour than before,
and often will play only one city in a state.
We have been able to'get the only state
appearance of Steve Miller, earlier this
month, and Linda Ronstodt on Nov. 11. But
in order to get these maior acts, we had to
be gable to compete with the other bids
being submitted . . . that meant offering
the same gross potential as other halls,
since these superstars all get large per-
centages of the ticket sales. $8.50 top-
price ticket has been the national norm on
the whole tourfor these acts. With Crisler
Arena having so many of its seats rear-
stage, it's mighty tough to compete with
other buildings in the state that have more
seats in front of the stage.
The productions on tour had really in-
creased in complexity, special effects, and
numbers of people on tour, all of which have
to be covered out of the ticket prices. So,
we hope you enjoy the advantage of having
these big shows in your backyard and can
understand the higher ticket prices this
year.
LINDA RONSTADT, winner of the televised
Rock Music Award for top Female Artist of
the Year and on the cover of last week's
PEOPLE magazine; has just gone on'sale for
her upcoming Nov. 11 concert here. Her
smash new album, "Simple Dreams,"
blew out sales records by unloading 1 .6
million copies in its first 16 days in the
stores. It shot to the number two album in
the country the first week it was re-
leased, and looks like the one that will
finally nudge Fleetwood Mac's "Rumours"
from the number 1 spot for an unpre-
cented 23 weeks.
