Page 2-Tuesday, December 6, 1977-The Michigan Daily Flemings eat out (Continued from Page 1) changes in the physical layout of the University over the next 20 years. If enrollment decreases as predicted, Fleming said, there will be one-third less students here over the next few decades. That, he explained, was why the University was reluctant to build new housing. "If there's a 40-year mor- tgage on a new dorm," he said, "by the time we're getting the mortgage paid off, it's empty." HE HASN'T decided yet when to leave his job here, Fleming told his cookie-crunching audience - but it will be within the next four years. The climax of the evening was Flem- ing's acceptance of an "Honorary Commando" award by Adams residen- ts who, dressed as comic book super- heroes, had dropped in on the Flemings this Halloween and were enthusiastical- ly received. Mrs. Fleming was given a group photograph of the superhero stu- dents in full regalia. And when the president and his wife were gone, when the Quaddies were left to their hoarded cookies, there was much munching and evaluating going on: "I wanted to get inspired about the' University," said one. "But I didn't." "Cool as hell," said another. "We got a decent meal." Vance plans new '43dY1 *Mideastp (Continued from Page 1) peace talks or other forms of negotiations with Israel, with or without Sadat. The "hardliners" also had stopped. short of declaring an irreparable break with Egypt. Sadat said Sunday that the Soviet Union was behind the "rubbish" of the Tripoli summit and that Egypt could "punish" the Russians. OVER THE weekend, it was reported that Egypt was recalling its ambassador to Moscow, but there was no immediate indication wheth- er Sadat was considering severing his already cool diplomatic ties with the Soviet Union. In Washington, the State Depart- ment said it would have no immedi- ate comment on the Egyptian move. The United States appeared yester- day to be trying to reclaim the initiative as a mediator in the Middle East. U.S. officials in Washington said Secretary of State Cyrus Vance would visit Egypt, Israel, Jordan, Lebanon and Saudi Arabia beginning this weekend to assess prospects for a comprehensive settlement. THEY SAID VANCE might also reace trip visit Syria and that Egypt's mass cutoff of diplomatic relations would not affect the trip. The last such serious break in Arab ranks occurred in 1971, when Syria and Egypt broke relations with Jordan over King Hussein's bloody expulsion of Palestinian guerrillas from his country. The Iraqis, for years Syria's main Arab rivals, denounced Syrian Presi- dent Hafez Assad in Tripoli for what they called his continued faith in "surrender solutions." SADAT SO FAR has won the firm support of only such peripheral Arab states as Morocco and Sudan. The break in relations seemed to indicate Sadat has given up hope of backing from the "hardline" coun- tries and instead will try to ally him- self with Saudi Arabia and Jordan, which thus far have stayed out of the furor over his visit to Israel. In related developments yester- day: * The official Soviet media stepped up Moscow's attack on Sadat, accus- ing him of secretly striving for a "separate deal with imperialism and Zionism behind the back of the Arab peoples." Common Mkt, talks, center' on Mideast (Continued from Page 1) peace overshadowed separate talks by leaders of the Common Market and the North Atlantic Treaty Organization seeking to strengthen the security and economy of the non-Communist world. THE WESTERN allies are aware that another Israeli-Arab war could draw them into a confrontation with the Soviet Union and disrupt the flow of Mideast oil to their industries and homes. These were among the developments at the Common Market talks: " French President Valery Giscard d'Estaing suggested the nine nations adopt a common code for extraditing offenders. It would make it easier to return criminals and suspected terror- ists to the country seeking them for prosecution. * Roy Jenkins, British president of the Common Market Commission, pro- posed a five-year program moving to- ward full economic and monetary union. This would mean the members' economic and tax systems gradually would be standardized, with a single European currency replacing the national currencies. This was a target set five years ago for 1980, but it re- mains a distant goal. " West German Chancellor Helmut Schmidt said the Common Market must put its budget and farm policies in or- der before considering full economic union. " Ministers agreed the Common Market should be able to issue loans. But they said an experimental start should be limited to a few projects and the money would be disbursed by the community's European Investment Bank in Luxembourg. The Common Market conference ends today.

RE BO L s winter none of tnat library's full-time staff failed to show up for work because of the weather. Graduate Library Circula- tion Direction Willard Davis said that almost everyone got to work before the snow began to fall. "The library almost never closes," he added. ANN ARBOR police reported that the city was under a red alert, which means emergency conditions. A police spokes- man said the roads were "bad and get- ting worse" at 3 p.m. yesterday. Predictably, the National Weather Service's Detroit branch issued heavy snow warnings for yesterday and last. night. To top things off, the Weather Service said that Old Man Winter will let out with a few more sporadic out- bursts of snow today. As yesterday's drifts grew deeper and deeper, the patience of harried public officials seemed to wear thinner by the minute. One switchboard opera- tor for the State Police was particularly unhappy.

"But if they'd just look out the window they could see for themselves what the snow's doing." "The roads are all snow-covered and slick, and there have been lots of ac- cidents, but it's no better and no worse than most snow storms," the operator said. Even life at City Hall was disrupted because of the snow. In fact, a call to City Administrator Sylvester Murray was answered - not by the usual secre- tary - but by Murray himself. "WE'VE BEEN LETTING the cleri- cals leave since about noon," Murray explained, "because they have to drive home." "Most of the department heads are still here, but we're mainly working with a skeleton crew," he said. "We've taken people out of other departments, like parks, to make sure we have enough plowing and sanding crews out on the streets. Right now it looks like we'll have crews out all night." While harried public servants and motorists tried to put up with yester- day's snowfall as best they could, one group of Ann Arborites found delight in the weather: skiers. "I LOVE IT when it's like this," said Natural Resources junior Sue Baker, "It's good weather for skiing. When it's slushy it's no good for anything." Purveyors of skis and other types of winter merchandise also found a silver lining behind yesterday's dark clouds. Bass shoe store employe Rod Lowe said yesterday's snowfall was at least partly responsible for his store's brisk business in boots. However, Lowe said the store sold more stock on the day after Thanks- giving, the first day of the winter snow season. His story was repeated by Dawn Hendricks, a hat and a scarf salesperson at Jacobson's. "We've been selling a lot of hats - but not as many as the first snow," Hendricks explained. "Most people are prepared by now. Louis IV, Holy Roman emperor, died at a bear hunt on Oct. 11, 1347.
