He is described as a black man, about 5'10". He has .stocky build and smooth ,r me- dium skin texture. He is usually wearing some king of head apparel. The Ann Arbor News re- ported yesterday that some of these attacks have occurred during daylight hours. The city police say that no such attacks have occurred. If you have any information concerning this man, call the Ann Arbor police at 994-2880 or 994-2875. If you are assaulted, call 911. The University se- curity emergency number is 763-1131, but call the police first. O Absentee Regents Next time your profs get down on you for cutting class, and you need a new line to hand them, try this one - "If the Regents can do it, why can't I" Only three of the eight members of the Board of Regents showed up for yester- day's meeting to discuss last year's research ex- penditures. Vice-president for Research Charles Overberger told the meager gathering that al- though expenditures had increased significantly over the past 10 years, that because of inflation the number of "real dollars" spent on research has dropped over 7 per cent since 1967. The Re- gents who attended were Gerald Dunn, Paul Brown and Thomas Roach. Regent Deane Baker walked in with only 10 minutes remaining in the meeting.' Ed and Carl Canvassers in Wayne, Monroe and Washtenaw County are all done and the final score in the Pierce-Pursell race for the Second Congressional district remains pretty much the same - Pur- sell, 95,397 to Pierce's 95,053, a margin of 344 votes. In light of these figures, Pursell has is- sued a statement saying he is making all prepara- tions to take office. Pierce, meanwhile, has not ruled out the possibility of calling for a re-count. Pierce aides are reportedly still checking over data for possible errors. Sources say the prob- ability of a complete re-count is remote but sev- eral precinct tallies may be suspect. 'Absentee ballots have also been a focus for concern among Pierce analysts. Pierce will probably make some statement early next week, concerning a re-count. " Of f with their heads With the big OSU-Michigan game rapidly ap- proaching, Columbus city officials are trying to save themselves a big headache by removing the "heads" of 355 parking meters in the OSU area. Recalling the scene two years ago, when OSU won 12-10, and jubilant fans caused over $25,000 worth of damage by tearing the "heads" off the meters, the Division of Traffic Engineering fig- ured it would be wiser to spend $200 now than thousands later. But it seems that the wrong city is taking the precautions. It is Ann Arbor that should be fixing the meters, because we're going to win it this time -- GO BLUE 0 Happenings ... today's deluge of events starts at 9:30 with the Economic and Social Outlook Conference in the Rackham Amphitheater ... at noon there is a luncheon with Bargara Murphy, assistant chair- woman of the Commission for Women at Guild House - lunch is 50 cents ... also at noon the Tenants Union will sponsor a festival on the diag Charles Spielberger will speak on Stress and Anxiety in Learning at 3:30 p.m. in the 6th floor large conference room of ISR ... competing is a coffee hour at the International, Center, also at 3:30 ... at 8:00 the R.C.

Dobilas Matulionis lambasts the new movie Car Wash Rape vici By LAURIE YOUNG The rash of rapes and assaults on women which have oc- curred during the past month has ridden/our community with tension, fear and anger. Men and women alike are addressing many questions not only to the city police and University security, but also to friends and to themselves. Who will be next and how do we protect ourselves? WHAT IS it like to be raped and how does it affect its vic- tims? What can people do to help rape victims? Most important, what can be done to stop these attacks? Two rape victims from Oxford Housing have decided to tell their story. Both women - who will be called Mary and Jill- were attacked at South University and Oxford three weeks apart. The most recent one occurred three days ago. Perhaps, then, we can begin to answer these nagging questions. THREE WEEKS ago Mary was walking home from work at 12:30 a.m. She was almost at the end of South University at Oxford when a man walked passed her, walking ahead of her fns/ tell their stories i for about half a block. Then as she began to cross the street, he came back, grabbed her from behind and put a knife to her throat, warning, "Scream and I'll kill you." "I looked around but there were no cars or people. He "T~hen you read about rape, it's something that happens to other people. It's like car accidents, or being robbed or having cancer. I'd never applied it to my body before." pulled me towards the driveway. I kept thinking he'd steal my camera. The knife was always pressing against my throat . . . He seemed inclined to kill me." He pulled her into a garage and she began to cry. He told her to shut up. "I had on a skirt with a leotard and tights. He couldn't figure it out. He stepped back while holding my hair. He told me to get undressed but it was 28 degrees outside and I said no. Finally, I undressed - as slowly as possible hoping someone would come by. He told me to lay down and he put a blouse over my face. The only time I saw his face was when he was walking on the street. When he was done he told me to sit up and put on my coat and wait ten minutes. I waited one minute, then went home across the street." MARY RAN to the room of her resident director and he called campus security and the police. When the police arrived, a policewoman questioned her briefly. They took her clothes in order to look for clues about the rapist - such as hair or sperm. They then took er to the hospital where she spent the next three hours taking a battery of tests. They also took samples of her head and pubic hair, saliva, and blood. She was given a pelvic examination and two penicil- lin shots for protection against venereal disease. A counselor from the Women's Crisis Center was also available. See TWO, Page 10 1 Snag delays GEO settlement 75grievance sI iii question Daily Photo by BRAD BENJAMIN o boogies.

By SUSAN ADES and KEN PARSIGIAN In an exhaustive bar- gainiug session between GEO and University nego- tiators yesterday, every thorny issue down to eco- nomics and affirmative ac- tion was settled - except one. One that may delay a contract agreemont for some time, according to both sides. The issue is a complicat- ed one. GEO submitted a grievance under the last cohtract charging the Uni- versity illegally removed people from the union by changing the definition of RA's and SA's' in certain departments. The two sides are scheduled to enter ar- bitration over the matter in January.

S E E STORY, PAGE 2. BUT while GEO wants to sign the contract now, retain- ing the present language and follow through with the griev- ance, the University refuses to settle until this language is cleared up at the bargaining table. "If during the term of the new contract they have griev- ances, and 'they lose or we lose, you have to live with it," said University General Counsel William Lemmer, "that's what collective bargaining's a 11 about. "But you don't go into a new contract pith a grievance," he concluded. H O W E V E R, GEO bar- gainer David Simen contended, "They're looking for a griev- ance - proof contract and wait- ing for that kind of contract means waiting till 1984 or 1986." Union President Doug Moran offered his interpretation, "What they're trying to do is See GEO, Page 2 A liende , profs say inflation rate will rise By RICHARD BRUDER 6.2 per cen the total mn Consumers and businessmen can expect 1977 dced by t national output and employment to exceed 1976 prices. levels but the inflation rate will also rise.

The lines have become ludicrously long. Students lanaguish in CRISPtick.et lines By EILEEN DALEY The rush for early CRISP registration dates has made Angell Hall the most popular camp site at the university. LSA assistant dean Eugene Nissen called the situation "the worst in our experience," and remarked "each passing day the lines get longer earlier." CRISP registration began Nov. 8 for seniors and Nov. 11 for underclasspersons. BY MIDNIGHT WEDNESDAY, about 18 students kept a cold vigil on the top steps at Angell, wrapped in blankets or equipped with sleeping bags. Earlier, about 30 other students stopped by to sign their names on a list, reserving a place in See 'U', Page 2 tcriti c izhes U.S. Chilean .junta aid to By BARBARA ZAHS Isabel Allende, daughter of the late Chilean President Salvador Allende, yesterday criticized the American government for supplying financial aid to" the junta which was responsible for her father's death in 1973. Speaking through an interpreter before a packed Rackham Auditorium crowd as part of the final session of the Tepch-In on Terror in Although she is now living in exile, Allende said she felt it was her duty "to carry on the struggle for my companeros still in Chile." SHE SAID Americans should pressure the gov- ernment to stop economic aid to Pinochet and to demand an investigation into the crimes of the junta. She also urged members of the audienc to boycott Chilean products so that the junta wil not have any more money to purchase arms.
