Tier this year about blacks. But
there were 3,111 absentee votes
still to be counted.
This is how the other races
stacked up on a day in which
there were primaries for state-
wide office in 12 states, where
a generally light turnout was
estimated at ranging from 17 to
33 per cent:
NEW HAMPSHIRE: Outspok-
en conservative Gov. Meldrim
Thomson ran away from mod-
erate Republican Gerard Zeiller
to win nomination for a third
term. On the Democratic side,
Harry Spanos, a former state
senate leader, was ahead in a
three-way race and declared
himself the victor. And in a
Republican Congressional pri-
mary, John Adams, an unem-
ployed 61-year-old taxi driver
who did little campaigning, held
alead over favored kdward
Hewson.
VERMONT: Gov. Thomas Sal-
mon won the Democratic Sen-
ate nomination over Ecott Skin-
ner, former director of a public
interest group. Salmon will face
Republican Sen. Robert Staf-
ford, who was nominated easily.

In its first meeting this term,
the Michigan Student Assem-
bly (MSA) clarifiednew^fund-
ing procedures to be used this
fall and reviewed progress
made over the summer months
in an unresolved lawsuit.
In a vote conducted last
spring, students passed a mea-
sure to continue MSA's volun-
tary funding using a new pro-
cedure. The choice of whether
or not a student wishes to sup-
port MSA through a 75 centj
charge on his or her tuition
assessment will now be made
by checking 'yes' or no' on' a
form included with the bill.
With the old method students
who chose not to fund MSA
were required to file a separate
form at Student Accounts of-
fice withdrawing their support.
MSA president Calvin Luker
related recent developments in
the two - year - old Schaper-

the disappearance of ;$41,000 of
funds from the now defunct Stu-
dent Government Council (SG
C). MSA replaced SGC when
it was disbanded last January.
In mid-July several of the
counts in the suit were dismiss-
ed after David Schaper and
William Jacobs, both former
SGC officers, were able to ac-
count for unrecorded spending.'
Four expenses, including ap-
proximately $2000 spent for a
concert which never material-
ized, remains unaccounted for
at this point.
Other business included the

introduction of MSA's two re-
cently hired attorneys, Paul
.Teich and Dianne Fowler, who
explained their duties and an-
nounced the publication of a
housing "self-help" booklet,
sponsored in part by MSA.
Mike Taylor, MSA represen-
tative toStudentsAAssociation
for Lower Tuition, a group in-
volving most of the Universi-
ties and colleges in the state, an-
nounced a state-wide class boy-
cott scheduled for October 13.
Due to sparse attendance
most of MSA's business was
postponed until a special meet-
ing scheduled for September 21.
