Hurricane Eloise
rips through South,
uproots thousands.
In 1972, 16,000 UM students created a unique student organization. Funded by $1.50
per term contributions, a staff of lobbyists, researchers and lawyers would work full
time on the problems students thought were important.
The new organization was called Public Interest Research Group in Michigan:
PIRGIM
So far PIRGIM has attacked government secrecy, the high cost of electricity, the unsafe
transportation of nuclear wastes, excessive and unproductive military spending, the high
price and ban of adverisinof prescription dru s and much, much more.
IT WORKS !
In just 3 years PIRGIM staff and student volunteers have influenced
legislation, remade regulations, affected the prices of basic com-
modities and the conduct of governmental and private institutions.

FORT WALTON BEACH, Fla.
() - Hurricane Eloise slam-
med into Florida's panhandle
with raging surf and lashing'
rains yesterday, then rushed in-
land, spawning tornadoes and
carrying with it the threat of
flooding.
With punishing winds up to
130 miles an hour, Eloise thun-
dered ashore between Fort Wal-
ton Beach and Panama City be-
fore sunrise, causing havoc in
both cities and in a 40-mile
stretch between.
IN FORT Walton Beach, shat-
tered plate glass littered the
few streets left unflooded. Doz-
ens of blocks were damaged
and many mobile homes up-
rooted.
The roof of a beach-front mo-
tel was ripped open and 30
rooms were demolished.
Civil Defense worker Bill
S hnlt7 said numerous F o r t
three panhandle counties to pre-
vent looting.
At noon, Eloise was reclassi-
fied as a tropical storm with
strongest winds of 70 m.p.h. The
storm's center was located over
s'outheastern Alabama near la-
titude 32.0 north and longitude
85.5 west.
"The major threat now is
tornadoes, heavy thunderstorms
and the flooding they can
cause," said Neil Frank, direc-
tor of the National Hurricane
Center in Miami.

Walton Beach homes and busi-
nesses had been destroyed and
90 per cent of the city's elec-
tricity was cut off.
"IT'S impossible to put a
dollar figure on this trail of
destruction," he said. In Pana-
ma City, Mayor Dan Russell
estimated damages at $50 mil-;
lion.
The only reported death was
that of Carlton Yackel, $7, who
police reported suffered a heart
attack while huddled in a hur-
ricane shelter here. Tens of
thousands of persons took re-
fuge from the storm's fury in
such shelters.

THREE early morning torna-
does tore through Fort Walton
Beach, teaming with the hur-
ricane's force.
Trees, power lines and bill-
boards toppled before the on-
slaught, and the area was
plunged into darkness in the
gray dawn as power trans-
formers exploded in brilliant
showers of blue-green sparks.
Thousands of people along a
100-mile stretch of shoreline
had fled in a last-minute rush
to escape the oncoming fury of
the storm in the darkness of
early morning.

FUEL WASTE:
House approves
busin Clause
WASHINGTON (AP) - The House yesterday approved an
amendment that would prohibit busing of school children be-
yond the nearest school on the grounds that busing to achieve
racial balance is a waste of fuel.
The amendment sponsored by Rep. James Collins (R-Tex.),
was tacked on to an energy bill on a voice vote with no recorded
roll call taken.
THE HOUSE is putting the final touches on an energy bill
that would roll back oil prices and phase out price controls over
a five-year period.
The measure, as written, is almost guaranteed to run afoul of
the Ford administration, which has opposed the measure's pro-
visions for control of oil prices.
The House could reach a. final vote on the entire energy
packagetoday, but controversial amendments attached to the
bill could delay action until later in the week.
COLLINS' amendment was not debated on the House floor.
The Texas congressman stood up briefly to explain his measure.
The floor manager of the whole energy bill, Rep. John Dingell,
(D-Mich.), chairman of the energy and power subcommittee,
voted in favor of the Collins antibusing amendment.
Collins' amendment stipulated that: "In order to achieve
more energy conservation, no vehicle using gasoline or diesel
fuel may be used to transport any public school student to a
school farther than the public school which is closest to his
home offering educational courses for the grade level and course
of study of the student and which is within the boundaries of
the school attendance district wherein the student resides."
The provision carries a civil penalty of not more than $5,000
for each violation.
The prohibition does not apply to any person who is a
parent using gasoline or diesel fuel to transport his child to a
public school.
It also does not apply to a person who is using fuel for the
transportation of any public school student for the purposes of
athletic, educational, social or other extracurricular activities.

ATTENTION ALL
STUDENT ORGANIZATIONS!
NEW
SGC ALLOCATIONS POLICY
SGC should use its resources (finances and offices) to
provide services for students and student organizations rather
than giving away cash allocations. In the past, SGC has allo-
nated resources to snecific groups; this policy benefits only a
very small segment )f the student population. Furthermore.
through this policy. SGC monies have been dispersed and more
widespread benefits are possible.
The original'purpose of SGC allocatons was to aid newly
formed organizations. Allocations rarely exceeded $30, but gave
groupsa chance to hecome self-sufficient. This policy should
be reconsidered. SGC should realize that it cannot and should
not be expected to find all student organizations and events.
SGC's office facilities should be more available for use by
student groups. The SGC workroom could, in the course of a
year, benefit many groups working on large short-term pro-
jects. Use of one of SGC's mimeograph machines could pro-
vide student groups with a low-cost method of campus publi-
city. The potential is there; all that is needed is creativity
in utilizing it.
The funding of a Student Organizations and Event In-
formation Center on the fourth floor of the Michigan Union,
providing a central location and telephone service for informa-
trn on student groups and student events is more essential
for students in the long run than any ten allocations the
Council could give this year. That center could be of aid to
hundredsof organizations and thousands of students in an
average year.
ALLOCATIONS POLICY -
when allocations are granted, it is essential that SGC
have a set policy controlling the wind and amount of alloca-
tions it can grant in any given period of time. Allocations
should be spread throughout the year to givetequal chance to
programs, organizations, and events arising later in the year.
The word "allocations" in this policy refers to allocations and
grants to student organizations and other external groups.
SGC's allocation policy shall include:
1. For this policy to go into effect, a simple majority vote of
Council is required: for this policy to be altered before Sep-
tember, 1976. two-thirds vote of the whole number of votes
on Council is required. During the first three weeks of Sep-
tember, 1976, this policy may be altered by simple maority
vote of Council. After the first three weeks of September,
1976, two-thirds votes of the whole number of votes on
Council is required.
2. Allocations may by made at any meeting of SGC; for any
external allocation to be'granted, a two-thirds-roilcall vote,
upon second reading, is required. Allocations may be made
only to recognized student organizations. All allocations are
considered by SGC, in the order received, as a block in the
SGC agenda.
3. Total allocations for the year are limited as provided for in
the SGC budget pssed in September.
4. All allocation requests should be submitted by Tuesday at
5 p.m, to receive a first reading. Requests should be sub-
mitted on a form repared by the Treasurer for that pur-
pose. All reqiuests should be reviewed by an allocations re-.
view committee which shall consist of three Council mem-
bers and the Treasurer. The purpose"of the committee will
be to review and make recommendations to SGC on all re-
quests. Any request coming from the Third World Coordi-
nating Council shall be exempt from committee review. The
organization requesting an allocation shall provide sufficient
copies of their completed form for the Council.
5. There shall be no discussion between organizations seeking
allocations and SGC- during first reading. Rather, first read-
ing shall consist of recommendations for the Allocation Com-
mittee.
