Loca ees star
in The Sting'
By LORI GENDOLMAN
There's at least one courtship in town that has every-
one running for cover.
Swarms of bees are out buzzing and mating, and a lot
of humans are getting stung in the process.
YELLOW JACKETS usually leave their nests to find a
proper mate in the fall. This year's heavy rains and cool
weather have brought them all out at once, according to
a spokeswoman for Washtenaw County Cooperative Ex-
tension Service.
"Bees have invaded our house and I'm petrified of
them," said Judy Ruskin. Ruskin said that she and her
housemates in their Oakland St. dwelling have joined swat-
ting forces against the stinging beasts.
So far, the people on the downstairs level have killed
24, and Ruskin says she's sent at least five bees to an early
death.
THE BEE onslaught should end soon, since the queen
bee hibernates and the male dies as soon as they've con-
summated their romance, she said.
To lessen your chances of getting stung, stay away from
the warm, sunny side of buildings where bees like to gath-
er and avoid wearing floral or dark clothing and heavy per-
fumes, a Medical Center spokesman advises.
The experts say a venom is injected under the skin
that causes swelling when a bee stings. They say the best
treatment is to place moderatecoldnesstonbthe sting.
But, some people may be allergic to bee stings and
should watch out for the following symptoms:
A local reaction to the sting greater than six inches;
General itching and hives;
" Fluid in the tissues, wheezing, nausea, or vomiting; and
Asthma, shortness or breath, swollen tongue, low blood
pressure, or fainting.
A hospital can administer a drug called epinephrin to
offset allergic reactions.

in chemistry and biology."
Rhodes went on to describe in
some detail the precarious fi-
nancial condition of several
schools and colleges:
* The Medical School has lost
nearly $800,000 in federal
funds and will, in all proba-
bility, impose a hiring freeze;
" The College of Engineering
has been virtually crippled
by budget cuts over the last
several years amounting to
11.6 per cent. It will be un-
able to hire any new facul-
ty this year;
9 The Law School's student-
faculty ratio has risen to 25-1,
while the national average is
only 20-1. The school is also
plagued with closed course
problems, and was forced to
eliminate it's clinical teach-
ing program; and
* The University library sys-
tem has lost over 37 staff
members due to recent bud-
get reductions, and had
closed the Education School
library.
The Regents also heard a pre-
sentation from Chief Financial
Officer Wilbur Pierpont compar-
ing the University's overall
revenue picture with the fiscal
year 1969-70. Using graphs to
contrast past and present reve-i

nues, expenditures, and main-
tenance costs.
Pierpont concluded that with.
a 50 per cent inflation factor
over the past six years, taken
into account the University "has
had no real growth in state ap-
propriations support in this six-
year period."
PIERPONT explained that
while there have been substan-
tial increases in salaries, utility
costs, and financial aid over the
last six years, other expense
areas such as book purchases
have been virtually buried by
spiraling inflation.
He also expressed concern for

Libii Josue, a representative of
the African Students Associa-
tion (ASA), submitted a request
for $1,600 - intended for par-
tial funding of Africa Week, an
upcoming program devoted to
black African affairs. SGC ap-
propriated a compromise value
of $1,000, some of which will be
returned to the Council later.
Following suit, members of
the International Folk Dance
Society asked for $450 in oper-
ating funds, but were refused.
DURING debate, SGC mem-
bers were clearly divided on
two issues: the amount of
money available for disbursal
and the relative educational
worth of the programs being
presented.
But feeling the limits of the
budget, SGC delayed action on a
motion by David Rothchild, a lo-

cal member of the Fifth Estate,
requesting $2,000 to fund a
three-day symposium on politi-
cal assassination, police repres-
sion, and electronic surveillance.

The Michigan State Police in
Ypsilanti are probing a bizarre
shooting incident which left one
man dead and two others wound-
ed Wednesday night.
Police report that four men
were apparently driving to the
Milan area from Detroit along
Rawsonville Road when one or
both of the men in the back seat
of the car fired shots at the men
in the front seat. Michael Dan-
iels was killed instantly and
Henry Washington, 26, was
wounded.
A SECOND man, Robert Bur-
den, 27, of Ypsilanti, was shot
and wounded when he stopped
his car to lend assistance. De-

spite his wound, Burden drove
to an Ypsilanti hospital for
treatment.
State police are searching for
the two back-seat passengers,
and are investigating possible
motives for the shooting.
Burden was listed in satisfac-
tory condition yesterday. Wash-
ington was admitted to Univer-
sity Hospital in Ann Arbor. His
condition was not known.
Jeff Burroughs accounted for
the scoring of 177 runs with the
Texas Rangers last season. It
was the top run-producing fig-
ure in the American League.
