F ' ay , ' r c" ' s & ip J.- 'j Trouble Oh, they've got trouble right here in Arbor city. With a capital "T," and that stands for "tickets."Sometime earlier this week a theatri- cally inclined thief made off with a stack of tick- ets to UAC Musket Theatre's The Music Man from the UAC office. The theft wasn't discovered un- til yesterday, and Robert Bianco of Musket said a search of records is on to determine exactly which tickets are missing. 29 tickets have already been found on a window ledge near the court house, but Bianco believes others may still be at large. If you have a ticket for section eight of Sunday night's performance which was sold to you by a man in a raincoat with beady eyes, check with UAC. Otherwise you'll be mighty embarrassed when they turn you away at the door. End of the line Put away your camping gear - this year your CRISP registration date will be printed on your verification form, not issued as a separate ticket. In past terms students have waited in line at Angell Hall for as much as 14 hours simply to get an early registration date. Under the new system times will be assigned at random, but dates will be assigned by splitting the alphabet into eight groups and assigning each group three days. The days for each group will be rotated every term so that each student will have a chance to be "first" once. The new system means a drop in business for ticket forgers and late-night pizza deliveries, but University officials hope it will cure the problem of lines. Verification forms will be available Monday for most students. 0 Oo ps It was all very mysterious. Announcements in the Daily calling for meetings which never oc- cured. People appearing at houses for meetings which were never to be. But behind it all was not international intrigue but a misunderstanding on our'part. To all those folks who followed our ad- vertisement for the Affirmative Action Committee of the Inter-Cooperative Council and showed up at various non-meetings around campus, and the Committee itself, we apologize. The Committee is still trying to interest minority students in giving the co-op experience a try, and will hold an abso- lutely genuine meeting at Stevens' Co-op, 816 S. Forest, on April 7 at 5:00. No kidding. " AFSCME leader suspended; total By BOB ROSENBAUM The name of Joel Block, Pr, dent of the American Fed< tion of State, County andI nicipal Employes (AFSCME, cal 1583), has been added to list of strikers suspended fr work because of "serious2 conduct" in the recent 26-{ walkout.

CITY POLICE CHIEF Walter Krasny last nightbwould only confirm that the bomb threat is still under investigation. He would not say whether Block had in fact been named a sus- pect. The threat was allegedly call- ed in to the police department prior to a "labor solidarity demonstration" held outside the Administration Building at noon.- The rally brought together lead- ers of local labor unions sup- porting the AFSCME strike. Block, like others suspended by the administration, faces pos- sible loss of his job. He was reportedly at an AFL-CIO con- ference in Lansing yesterday, and could not be reached for comment. THE UNION president's sus- pension came as only a slight surprise to other AFSCME of- ficials, who earlier said they ex- pected Block to be part of the University's "head-hunting." Of those ' initially suspended this week, 17 workers have now been formally discharged, two have received disciplinary lay- offs, and nine have been clear- ed and sent back to their jobs on campus, Barthelemy said.

Key advisers accompanying the secretary on the eight-day trip to the Soviet Union and A estern Europe starting last night, said the negative elements would come in the form of Soviet questioning about U. S. human rights policies. AT THE SAME time, these officials stressed what has be- come PresidentdCarter's litany SCHOOL OFFIC on the subject: U.

" P-Rresident advisor Imagine Robben Fleming dressed in a brown cassock and sandals and living on the third floor of South Quad and you will realize the difference between the University of Michigan and little Siena College. Rev. Hugh Hines, president of the small New York religious school, has taken up residence in one of the dorms because he doesn't want to lose contact with his students. "During the day, I carry on the work of the college," he says. "Living in the dorm is a pastoral outlet. It's enjoyable for me personally." A pastoral outlet? Mary Markley is hardly the first place that springs to mind, but one has to wonder what things would be like if disgruntled Quaddies were always wait- ing for Frank Rhodes to get out of the shower or nailing Billy Frye's door shut.

Bikers to pedal onto new path By DENNIS SABO Hard-pedaling bicyclists will be able to steer off poten- tially treacherous roads next year onto a new $300,000 bike path that will connect the University with Eastern Michi- gan University and the surrounding Ypsilanti area. The 12-mile long bike path will begin at Nichols Drive in the Arboretum and run along the Huron River to Ford, Lake in Ypsilanti. The 8-foot wide path will provide ac- cess to North Campus, University Hospital, as well as sev- eral area parks. THE BIKE PATH will also boast a wooden foot bridge over the Huron River and a culvert under the Conrail rail- road tracks near North Campus. The Ann Arbor-Ypsilanti Urban Area Transportation Study Committee (UATS) has allocated $216,000 in federal funds for the bike path's construction. The remaining $84,000 has already been guaranteed by the cities of Ann Arbor, Ypsilanti and the Washtenaw County Road Commission. Construction on the bike path will begin next spring.

It is the second realty firm this week to file suit against TU. Trony Associates has decided to revive a year-old lawsuit - also in the million dollar range- for obstruction of business prac- tices and 14 other charges. RELIABLE is filing damages of $50 000 for breach of contract, $75 000 for wrongful interference with contractual relations and $1 million for libel and slander. "Of course we don't think that any of the charges are true," TU Leeal Coordinator Kim Kel- ler said. "'We think she (Reli- able owner Edith Epstein) just concocted this suit to harrass us. It is something we kind of ex- pect and we've learned to handle, just because of the kind of organization we are," she said. Edith Epstein refused to talk Kelle explained. "That means that TU must be involved in any elations that go on between Re- liable and the tenants. When new leases were signed, the Ten- ants Union wasn't contacted. Rent was really high for the new people who were moving in." she said. Meanwhile, Reliable tenants are continuing their 15-month- old strike. Negotiations have not taken place for three months. "She (Epstein) won't talk to us," Keller said. "About a week ago we exchanged offers. We rejected her offer and she i e- jected ours." Kamisar is one of only ten who fit that description. "I THINK I'M unorthodox - controversial - in the way I teach. I take very strong pQsi- tions," Kamisar said in an in- terview. "My teaching is a re- action against law school days, where I didn't think we got much out of the teachers. They didn't give us enough of them- selves." But Kamisar is not like those professors he remembers so well. Many students speak in superlatives - flamboyant, bril- liant, impressive - when they describe Kamisar. Bill Brunstad, a first year stu- dent, admires Kamisar. "He's great. It's exciting to take a class with him. He's really pro- vacative." A man of medium build and stature, Kamisar is at once in- tense and relaxed. He creates a comfortable atmosphere in the classroom, often sparking a lively exchange between him- self and students. SPECIALIZING in criminal and constitutional law, Kamisar began teaching at the Univer- sity in 1964.
