Local chapter 1583 of the American Federation of State, County and Municipal Employes (AFSCME) filed a grievance against the University Athletic Dept. yesterday charging that the depart- ment has provided inadequate safety equipment, unsafe laundry machines and hazardous saws and emery wheels. Union Safety Committee Chairman Tim Seguin says that "The union has brought these safety hazards to the attention of both the Athletic Department and the University's health and safety representatives many times, but they haven't got- ten the problems corrected to comply with the state's safety standards. AFSCME representatives reported that several accidents have occurred in the past few years to employes of the Athletic Department while working with the "questionable" equipment. Following receipt of the union's com- plaint, the state Bureau of Safety and Regulation will conduct an on-site inspection of the alleged safety hazards. 0 Happenings ... . . . are appropriately scant over the Thanks- giving holidays.

A. Wilson of rural Sligo, Ky., has a bald duck she'd just love you to have. Poor little Soupy was born with a mess of fuzz, but mysteriously went Kojak-bald within a couple of weeks. Accord- ing to Wilson, Soupy contracted a bad sunburn during the summer and may freeze during the long, hard winter. Neither she, nor a university of Louisville professor can explain Soupy's premature loss of feathers. So, Wilson has decided to give Soupy up as a pet under one condition-if you want him, make'sure he doesn't end up on the Thanks- giving table. 0 Tuition blues Medical school students from across the nation are attempting to organize efforts to put a stop to .astronomical tuition increases that have raised csts as much as 50 per cent this year. Protests have been organized at several schools including the State University of New York at Buffalo, and a group of medical school students has even filed suit in an effort to prevent a fee increase at the George Washington School of Medicine in Washing- ton, D.C. Lawyers for the George Washington students have appealed in the District of Columbia Court of Appeals to reverse a lower court ruling that rejected their claim that the school's tuition hike was a breach of contract. They contend that the statements in the school catalogue promised only a $200 annual increase through 1979. Instead, tuition increased by $1,800 to a total of $5,000 annually. On the inside ...

By GORDON ATCHESON U.S. Congressman Marvin Esch of Ann Arbor yesterday be- came the first Republican to announce plans to run for the Senate next year, as he pledged to reduce the impact of the federal gov- ernment on the auto industry. Esch told several hundred supporters gathered at the old Second Ward Town Hall on Ashley St. that the Environmental Protection Agency's auto emission standards have hamstrung the industry, contributing to the state's high unemployment. THE FIVE-TERM congressman added that the jobless "are the nation's best resource" and that the best way to end abuse of the welfare system "is to give a meaningful work experience." The EPA's anti-pollution standards have prevented auto manu- facturers from developing efficient, inexpensive cars to compete with foreign compacts that have glutted the market recently, ac- cording to Esch. During a news conference following his speech, Esch sized up some of his potential opponents. "I DON'T anticipate any major opposition in the primary," Esch told reporters. "I'm moving ahead as if I already have the nomination.' University Regent Deane Baker (R-Ann Arbor) has expressed interest in the Republican nomination but would probably pose little threat to Esch if he entered the race. On the Democratic side, Congressman Donald Riegle of Flint and James O'Hara of Utica have already declared their candi- dacies for the seat now held by Sen. Philip Hart (D-Mich.). HART WILL retire next year, after serving in the Senate for 18 years. "I have been traveling across the state for about 10 months and I have been well received," the 48-year-old Esch said, when asked how he would fare against either state Attorney General Frank Kelley or Secretary of State Richard Austin in the Novem- ber election. Austin and Kelley - both Democrats - are reportedly con- sidering Senate bids. A MODERATE Republican, Esch has spent 10 years in the House representing a district combining large number of white collar employes, auto assembly line workers, and college stu- dents. See ESCH, Page 8 Daily Photo by KEN FINK U.S. CONGRESSMAN Marvin Esch of Ann Arbor announced his candidacy for the Senate yesterday, pledging to fight federal auto emission standards which he claims have ham- strung the industry. Kissinger calls 0Soviet threat By STEPHEN HERSH Special To The Daily DETROIT - Secretary of State Henry Kissinger yes- terday u n d e r s c o r e d his warning that S o v i e t in- volvement in Angola is a threat to detente. Expanding on h i s new stance against w h a t he calls the Soviet Union's "in- terventionist policy" in the newly - independent nation, Kissinger told a press con- ference, "It is difficult to reconcile this with the principles of coexistence that were signed in 1972." EARLIER this month, Portu- gal reinguished its control of Angola after 500 years of co- lonial rule. Kissinger also announced he may meet personally with So- viet leaders next month in an attempt to break the current deadlock in the Strategic Arms Limitation Talks (SALT). Referringsto Angola, Kissinger told a press conference, "Our primary concern in thisdmatter is to put an end to it, and to see whether an African solution can be found to an African prob- lem."

Frats brighten holidays food drive By JAY LEVIN There'll be turkey on the tables of many needy city families tomorrow courtesy of two Thanksgiving D a y food drives sponsored by black Uni- versity fraternities. Members of the Omega Psi Phi and Kappa Alpha Psi frats gathered their T u r k e y Day goodies in different ways, but all agreed it was well worth it. "IT'S A SWEET feeling," said Bill Hunter of Kappa Alpha Psi, who along with their female "Kappa Kitten" affiliates began distribution of baskets last night. Kappa members have scoured the city and campus in search of edible donations, and according to Hunter, folks around here have a lot of heart. "The people have been very generou.s," said Hunter "They've donated s t u f f very freely and have been more than Fromme jury asks for new instructions By AP and Reuter SACRAMENTO, Calif. - The jury in fthe Lynette "Squeaky" Fromme trial asked for new instructions yesterday, indicating it probably is deadlocked on the question of whether she tried to assassinate President Ford. U.S. District Court Judge Thomas MacBride, responding to the panel's request for help, modified his instructions to allow the jury to consider a lesser charge of assault immediately. UNDER THE attempted assassination charge, the 27-year-old Manson family cultist could have been sentenced to life imprison- ment, but the maximum for assault is 10 years. In his instructions, the judge said that they must either find Fromme guilty or innocent on the attempted assassination charge glad to accommodate us. We're really amazed at the reception we've received." THE SOCIAL service frat has made a yearly tradition of brightening Thanksgiving f o r economically troubled families throughout the community. Hunter estimates at least 12 homes will receive baskets by tomorrow. Earlier yesterday, members of Omega Psi Phi service frat delivered ten abundantly stocked baskets to the Second Baptist Church on Fifth and Beakes Streets for distribution. The contents of the red, green and yellow wrapped parcels were acquired t h r o u g h the drive's contributions and funds raised Thursday from a Psi Phi- sponsored dance at South Quad. Admission included a 54c fee and donation of certain kinds of canned or boxed goods. "IT WAS really nice-people were bringing two and three items with them," said Psi Phi member Kevin White of the dance's success. The frat pur- chased ten 16-19 pound gobblers with the dance's proceeds and additional student contributions.

By JIM FINKELSTEIN An angry crowd of about 50 Chicano students picketed the School of Social Work yesterday, protesting the University's alleged non-compliance with the Affirmative Action program, particularly with regard to Chicanos. The noon rally, held at the Huron St. entrance to the Frieze Bldg., was organized by "Traba- jadores de La Raza," a group of Chicano social work students. THE PROTESTORS were particularly upset with a recent School of Social Work decision to postpone the rehiring of an asst. director of ad- missions and financial aid, a position formerly held by a Chicano. Dolores Estrada, chairwoman of the group, said this position is "strategically crucial for Chicanos and other minorities at the School of Social Work." But Dean Phillip Fellin denied any wrong- doing in the hiring freeze. "My position is to try to see if we can take care of the tasks of that position without having to rehire anyone for it," he said. "We feel it's appropriate to take some time in evaluating the need for a full-time administrator in that position, in light of the present uncertainty about the budget." See 50, Page 2 before they considered one of assault.
