Pierce's hopes pierced
The final act of Ed Pierce's fight for a seat
in Congress closed Wednesday when a U.S. House
subcommittee voted to deny him a recount of the
i cl lection between himself and Re-
publican Carl Pursell. The margin of victory was
only 344 votes last November 2, but all of Pierce's
attempts to have the tallies re-examined - from
his request for a state recount t aUhallenge
the State Court of Appeals this . requetin the
U.S. House - have met with disappontment. Not
only that, it's the second time Pierce has been
squeezed out of a chance in Washington; he lost
the 1974 Democratic primary to John Reuther by
a razor-thin gap as well. The House subcommit-
tee report said that since no allegations of vote
fraud were made, they couldn't authorize a re-
count. For the Doc, it's- time for a break. Says
he, "I won't run again unless I think there is
a good chance to wi."

Nude on the loose
Art student April HolIes was finishing up some
work on the second floor of the Art School Wed-
nesday evening about dinnertime - when the
building is pretty well cleared out - when she
was interrupted by a young man carrying a
sketch pad who asked if she needed a male model
to pose .for her. She didn't, and she particularly
didn't need one attired as this one was - that
is, with no attire at all. She told him so, and
he casually went on his way down the hall. Not
particularly funny, perhaps, but one wonders where
he went from there.

anytime you get near

treading on sacred
ground. They're par-
anoids.'
-Louis Belcher, GOP
mayoral candidate

By MIKE NORTON,
and JULIE ROVNER
A group of citizens from the area sur-
rounding the Ann ArborrMunicipalrAirport
have accused Republican mayoral' candi-
date Louis Belcher of having made a "sec-
ret deal" with county GOP leaders which
could mean expansion of the airport - if
Belcher wins the April 4 city election.
The critics quote a March 3 letter from
Belcher to Republican County Commis-
sioner Bent Nielsen which allegedly shows
the Fifth Ward City Council member re-
versing his public stand against airport ex-
pansion by promising to "cooperate" with
county Republicans.
IN THE LETTER, Belcher stated: "We

cannot do anything about this until after
April 4th when hopefully we have the
Mayor's seat and a council majority, but
it is important to know. that we will coop-
erate with Bob Lilly (Pittsfield Township
Supervisor) on this issue '?
(The GOP leadership in Pittsfield Town-
ship, from which the city recently annexed
the airport, 'favors changing the direction
of one runway - allegedly to swing i1
away from a proposed housing develop-
ment.)
In a public statement, eight res'dents-
linda Chessler, Mary Ferguson, Barbara
Perkins, George Perkins, Eloise Pollard,
William Pollard, Paul Schulz and Winifred
Wilmarth-charge Belcher with "promising
to reverse his airport position." Barbara

Perkins and Wilmarth are both members
of the city's Airport Advisory Committee.
"ON FEBRUARY 24, 1977, their state-
ment reads, "Mr. Belcher voted along with
all other Council members present to adopt
an Airport Plan to be submitted to the fed-
eral government which specifically rules
out building. an East-West runway. One
week later Mr. Belcher privately stated that
he could not alter his public position until
after the city election."
The statement reads further, "It is ap-
nalling- to discover that within a week of
that vote he has quietly sought to curry

UNITED NATIONS, N. Y. -
President Carter told the world
communityClast night "no mem-
ber of the United Ntions can
claim that mistreatment of its
citizens is solely its own busi-
ness."
In his first address at the
United Nations since becoming
U. S. chief executive, Carter
defended his human rights poli-
cy, which has been attacked
by the Soviet Union, Argentina,
Brazil and other states that
claim he is meddling in their
internal affairs.
"ALL THE signatories of the
U. N. Charter have pledged
themselves to observe and re-
spect basic human rights," Car-
ter told 141 delegations and 10
observer missions.
But Carter said the United
Nations had too often ignored
the question of human rights
or allowed it to be engulfed by
political questions.

The Detroit fans waved their

"I'd like to see Detroit beat
Michigan," one Titan backer
said. "It's about.time somebody
shut Michigan down. They're
way too cocky."
"It'll be U-D by two," boasted
one Detroit alum. "We always
play better in the second half."
THAT' THEY DID. Michigan
won the first half 48-44, but the
second stanza went to the Blue
by a mere one point, 38-37.

GEO mobilizes, plans rally

By RICHARD BERKE
At a sparsely attended Grad-
uate Employes Organization
(GEO) meeting last night, fifty
members unanimously approved
a proposal to rally on Regent's
Plaza at 10:30 this morning and
to initiate other mobilization ef-
forts.
Union President Doug Moran
will present a letter to the Re-
gents at the rally, requesting
them to come to a negotiated
settlement quickly. Discussion
of the Regents response to the
rally and letter will kick off a
second membership meeting
next Tuesday.
AT NEXT week's meeting,
members will vote whether to
initiate a strike referendum this
term or to delay it until fall

tition with the basketball game."
lamented Moran. "There is a
lot of evidence that people didn't
come to the meeting because of
a combination of both the game
and the fact that we weren't
voting until next week on the
important question."
Despite the light attendance
last night, a plan to establish
better communication among

GEO's 1,400 bargaining. unit
members was outlined. Names
and phone numbers firmly in
hand, a phone campaign will
kick into gear this weekend in
ani effort to spark interest in
next Tuesday's meeting and the
strike issue.
