CRISP gets facelift:

WESTERN STATES STILL SUFFER:

Students unable to make it to
the terminals at their designat-
ed times can CRISP ;between 8
and 10 a.m. on any day succeed-
ing their original appointment
date. If a conflict still exists, ar-
rangements can be made with
the Registrar's Office for a con-
venient time.
Under the modified plan, LSA
seniors no longer have priority
for early dates.
"This simply could not be ac-
complished by early registra-
tion this April because of the
great amount of work involved,"
Zimmerman explained.

ZIMMERMAN DID
say, however, that special prior-
-ties will likely be included in
the future.
Results from a sampling of
LSA students earlier this year,
show that the majority favor a
random appointment procedure
such as the one being imple-
mented. They also indicated
that seniors should continue to
get special priority. The new
plan, however, had been con-
ceived before the LSA survey
was distributed.
Although reaction to the new
plan has been mixed among the
various schools and colleges, all
are willing to try it, according
to Zimmerman.
"Most schools other thanl
LSA could handle the (old)
appointment process well be-
cause of the limited number of
students involved. Certain
schools could give specific stu-
dents priority over others for
various reasons," he said.
"LSA, however, s i m p 1y

opinion of the new scheme is'
also varied.
LSA sophomore Debbie Pikus
was enthusiastic about the plan.
"Now I'll get a fair chance and
everyone else will too," she
said. "T don't like waiting in

should be translated into fact
and recognized, but Israel also
has to live and be recognized."
"THE WEST GERMAN posi-
tion is clear - we don't want
anything to offend our Arab
friends and Israeli friends," he
said.
Sadat declared that "estab-
lishing peace in the area is pos-
sible if Israel relinquishes her
expansionist policies, agrees to
withdraw from all Arab occu-
pied lands and approves the
Palestinian legitimate rights,
mainly their right to establish1
an independent state."
Asked what Egypt's position
would be if all peace efforts
fail, he replied: "If Israel choses
to defy all peace efforts there
is no alternative left for us but
to go to war."
"But I am convinced this year
will be a year of peace," the
Egyptian president added. "I
am optimistic a peaceful solu-
tion could be reached this
year."
SADAT REPEATED that
Egype is ready to sign a peace
treaty with Israel and give Is-
rael all the guarantees it may
ask "provided we get the same
guarantees."
Waldheim told an airport news
conference before leaving Cairo
new ideas had emerged during
his Mideast trip which could
form "a reasonable basis" for
proceeding with peace talks at
Geneva.
When asked whether these
new elements may concern
breaking the deadlock over the
PLO's representation at the
talks, Waldheim said:
"We have not solved this prob-
lem. But a number of possibili-
ties have been discussed, even
new ideas have emerged."
Waldheim denied reports that
-his trip had led to hardening of
-positions by both Israeli and
Arab loaders..

"BOTH SIDES fully realize
the positive aspects," he said.
"We can see flexibility and I
leave the area with the feeling
there is still a good chance to
overcome the difficulties and
find a way out of the stale-
mate."
Jordan's King, Hussein said
in an interview released in Teh-
ran, Iran, that any forthcoming
Geneva talks "will not be mean-
ingful if the Palestinians did not
participate in them."
"I believe that the Palestin-
ian participation ... is a must,"
Hussein said in an interview
with Iran's Telepress Interna-
tional.
He added that "unless some
real progress is made the pen-
dulum could swing the other
way and that despair will come
to prevail and with it extremism
and turbulence."
In a move viewed as signal-
ing a rapprochement between
Hussein and the Palestinians,
a six-person Palestinian parlia-
mentary delegation arrived Sat-
urday in the Jordanian capital
of Amman to offer condolences
over the death last of Hussein's
wife, Queen A1ia. The queen was
killed in a helicopter crash Wed-
nesday.
Hussein's relations with the
Palestinians have been strained
since he staged a bloody crack-
down in 1970 to drive Palestinian
guerrillas out of Jordan.

Truck controls
urged
LANSING ' -Gov. William
Milliken ordered the S t a t e
Police yesterday to speed up a
study of ways to ban tandem
tanker trucks carrying danger-
ous materials from state free-
ways.
A statement issued by Milli-
ken's office said the speed-up
order was prompted by a tank-
er truck explosion on Interstate
75 near downtown Detroit on
Friday. It was the fourth such
accident this year in the De-
troit area. So far, no fatalities
have resulted.
The governor also called for
more strict inspections' of the
double-trailer trucks as well as
a review of possible legislation
to ban them from freeways.
"The situation seems to.be
getting worse instead of better,"
a spokesperson said, "and it's
time to take a look at getting
some adequate control so wt
can end this rash of accidents
