THE MICHIGAN DAILY

WASHINGTON (P) - Public
interest groups asked the Su-:
preme Court yesterday to per-
mit the illegally constituted
Federal Election Commission"
to continue operating for 30
more days.
The groups said legislation to
restructure the commission and'
make it comply with the law "is
progressing rapidly through
Conggress. If the court extends
the stay for an additional 30!
days, we believe the Congress
will be able to complete its ac-
tion within that period."
IF THE court fails to grant
the extension, the FEC will
cease awarding federal match-'
ing presidential cam-'
paign funds at midnight Mon-:
day.
The justices gave'no indica-1
tion when they would act. They
meet today, for one of their
regularly scheduled closed con-i
ferences. Congress was not ex-1

working to prevent disasters in-
volving unconfined explosions:
-including such areas as mineI
and grain elevator blasts. E
pected to pass legislation be-
for the deadline.
In the House, Rep. Wayne
Hays, (D-Ohio), postponed un-
til Monday any action on over-
hauling the commission to
meet the court's objections.
THE PUBLIC interest groups
cited Maryland and Georgia re-
apportionment cases to bolster
their argument that the court
has the authority to permit the
FEC to continue functioning.
The groups said the court al-
lowed states' legislatures to
meet during periods in which
the legislative memberships
were unconstitutionally appor-
tioned.
Allowing the commission to
die "would obviously have a
serious and adverse impact on
candidates" in the presidential
primaries in Massachusetts and
Vermont on March 2; Florida,
March 9; Illinois, March 16, and'
North Carolina, March 23, the1
groups said.

certain classified documents -
and this is where the approval
of the University Senate Assem-

research to continue.

the federal government h a d
looked into such a plan., but he
added, "As far as I know, we've
never had anything but studies
on paper."
As a further matter, Hodges
claims the Glomar Explorer-
the vessel used by the CIA re-
portedly to retrieve a sunken!
Soviet submarine in 1974-was
actually involved in installing
a missile silo in the ocean bot-
tom.
Hodges alleges that the "hole
in the Glomar Explorer was too
small to hold the Russian sub

evidence that the ship was in-
volved in other than its reported
mission.
