The union, which is the smallest of seven campus unions, represents the 40 heating plant engineers and boiler operators. The ratifica- tion follows eight weeks of bargaining and the new contract is retroactive to April 1. The settlement gives the union members an across thetboard 20 cent an dour wage increase with additional in- creases this year and April next year. This boosts the average wage, as of April 1 to $6.48. Correction We envy DJs and news announcers a radio sta- tions. Unlike us print media folk, they never have to worry about misspelling names. Take WRCN's John Sloss, for example. While John may have to watch his pronunciations every now and then, he probably never screws up names as badly as we did yesterday. Our profile of him used two dif- ferent spellings for his last name, neither of which were even remotely close to the real thing. And on our Arts Page, we unflinchingly changed Hop- wood winner Cindy Leigh Hill's middle name to Lee. We extend sincere apologies to both. Why you're dumb Sagging precollege SAT scores have been blamed on television, permisiveness, and increases in fe- male enrollment - everything, it seems, except actual stupidity - but a University psychology professor believes the real reasons are all in the family. Dr. Robert Zajonc said Wednesday that a 12-year study of the scores shows individual in- telligence levels decline with increased family sizes and that children born early in a family score higher on the tests than later siblings when the intervals between births is relatively short. He also concluded that long intervals between births enhance intellectual growth - especially for first- borns - but that an only child and the last child born into a family are both at an automatic disad- vantage. It's because children born between 1947 and 1962 have generally tended to be stuck in dis- advantageous family configurations that the scores are heading downward. Zajonc says the trend should continue until 1980. Aren't you glad it's not your fault? Happenings ... are concentrated around the afternoon this Good Friday.

No one liked the three- day-a-week delivery plan. No one like the most recent increase. So take a guess at public reaction to their latest bright idea: The Postal Rate Com- mission yesterday recommended letter envelope sizes be standardized, so the P. S. machines can sort and route them at less cost. If the regulations are adopted, mailers would have to pay a sur- charge for oversize envelopes (like greeting cards) and undersize envelopes (invitations, perhaps, or other small notes) would be banned. If the postal Service Board of Governors approves the plan, it could go into effect in two years. Better send your protests in now so they'll get there by then - if you're lucky. f On the inside ...

Soviet down detain By AP and Reuter MOSCOW - Yelena Sak- harov, the wife of Nobel Peace Prize winner Andrei Sakharov, said yesterday she and her husband were beaten by Soviet police who detained them during the trial of a dissident in the Siberian city of Omsk. Moscow friends of the couple said she confirmed that they had been tem- porarily detained Wednes- day as well as yesterday. s cracking on radicals; Sakharov THEY WERE trying to at- tend the trial of Crimean Tar- tar Mustafa Dzhemilyov-sen- tenced yesterday to two and a half years in a labor camp af- ter being convicted of anti-So- viet slander - according to dissident sources here. The Sakharovs' friends said the physicist's wife Yelena told them by telephone: "Wednesday we were at the police station for four hours. Yesterday it was for less, but they beat us." In another trial in Moscow, Sakharov's close friend Andrei Group asks Regents to save Wasterman Tverdokhlebov, secretary of the Soviet group of the human rights organization Amnesty International, was sentenced to five years' internal exile on the same charge of anti-Soviet slander. WHILE Tverdokhlebov w a s formally sentenced to five years' exile within the Soviet Union for slandering thenstate, three years of the sentence were canceled because he had been in jail for a year awaiting his trial. One year in jail is the equivalent of three years' exile in the Soviet system. Tverdokhlebov, in his closing statement to the court, report- edly said thatta free exchange of ideas is essential to detente. He quoted Soviet leader Leonid Brezhnev to the effect that freedom of speech must be en- couraged. Sakharov chose to go to Omsk rather than stay in Moscow for his friend's trial because he felt the Dzhemilyov case needed publicity in the absence of w e s t e r n correspondents. For- eigners are barred from Omsk. SAKHAROV, 54, a tall, pro- fessional figure, won the Nobel Peace Prize last year for his human rights campaigning in the Soviet Union. The official Soviet news ag- ency Tass Wednesday accused him and his wife of striking policemen on duty at the Dzhemilyov trial when the couple tried to gain admit- tnace to the courtroom. DZHEMILYOV, 31, was ac- cused of spreading "deliberate- ly false fabrications defaming the Soviet state," dissident sources said.

RACIAL BIAS CHARG E: By MIKE NORTON An impassioned plea for pres- ervation of Waterman-Barbour gymnasiums marked the open- ing session of the April meeting of the University's Board of Re- gents yesterday. Kathy Gourlay, a student and Program Analyst at the Uni- versity Mental Health Research Institute, presented a petition of 1000 signatures to the Re- gents asking that the Univer- sity reconsider its plans to tear down the red structure and use the site for an extension of the, Chemistry Building. ACCORDING TO Gourlay, there is a large amount of stu- dent interest in preserving the gymnasiums. "We were only trying for a few hundred sig- natures," she said, "but within a week we collected a thou- sand." Eighty-five per cent of those asked to sign did so, she added. Gourlay's sentiments were echoed by University Economics Prof. William Shepherd who added that the reasons original- ly given to support demolition of the two buildings were large- ly unfounded. "There has been no genuine feasibility study either of Waterman-Barbour or the whole site," he charged. Shepherd contends that the University has failed to consider "all the creative possibilities" with relation to the buildings, and has ignored many features which make them "large, attrac- tive, living parts of this Uni- versity's life and heritage." TO SUPPORT his contention, Shepherd presented a report from Robert Neumann, an Ann See GROUP, Page 10 - By LOIS JOSIMOVICH Negotiations over a racial discrimination g r i e v a n c e against the University have been broken off by the Univer- sity at the third stage, accord- ing to official statements this weeks. The grievance was filed by black clerical' worker Ethel Harvell against the Staff Bene- fits Department - which the union charged "has removed (her) from her regular assign- its negotiations ments, given her disciplinary job assignments," and "haras- sed her." AN APRIL 6 letter from the University, however, claims that the grievance, filed through United Auto Workers (UAW) Local 2001, "has not been appealed to Step Three within the contractually estab- lished time limits . . . and as such will not be considered for a hearing at Step Three." Step Three of a grievance is a meeting between an aggriev- ed employe, a representative of the department charged with contract violations, and the Uni- versity bargaining committee. The appeal, according to the union's contract with the Uni- versity, must be filed "with- in the five calendar day period following receipt of the step two answer by the Chairperson of the bargaining committee." HELEN KELLY, a member of the union's grievance nego- tiating committee, called the 'untimely grievance' argument "complete b.s." and said yes- terday the time delay of near- ly a month resulted from a "breakdown of communica- tions between the University and the union, (with) the Uni- versity taking full advantage of it." Kelly and Harvell also scof- fed at another University ac- cusation - that Margaret Ca- vallaro, who signed the griev- ance, "was not a recognized steward on February 20, 1976, the day she was present at the second step hearing." Kelly claims the grievance See 'U', Page 2 McCarthy hi~ts De-ms, GOP By JEFF SORENSEN Former Minnesota Senator E u g e n e McCarthy told a receptive crowd of 300 in the Union last night that he is run- ning for President as an independent candidate in order to f .fprovide voters with an alternative to the two major parties. He predicted that his name will appear on the ballot in 45 states in November-if he can raise some $300-400,000 and get enough petition signatures in the next few months. Mc . Carthy needs 17,600 signatures in Michigan. HE ADMITS that a McCarthy victory would require "the most significant (grass roots) movement of its kind in the history of the nation," but argues that "the time has come for a change" from past Republican and Democratic ad ministrations. Although the ex-senator has aged considerably in appear- ance since 1968 when he made an unsuccessful bid for the Democratic nomination as an anti-war candidate, his style f. of campaigning has changed little. Featuring a mild man- nered voice and a dry wit, McCarthy was extremely critical -; l of the two-party system. "The arguments against the two parties are rather obvious when you considered the fact that one party nominated Richard Nixon three times-and the other failed to stop him twice," he said. "You'd think that he would be enough to discredit a party for at least 20 years." McCARTHY EXPLAINED that "the two-party system has been accepted uncritically as if it were written on a tablet' but that it might be "the worst of all possible systems." "It seems to me it would be much better if we could choose between four or five candidates" rather than be forced to accept the Democrats and Republicans' selections. He charged that the system "has been formalized into Daily Photo by PAULINE LUBENS law" so that third parties and independent candidates are 11cCarthySee McCARTHY, Page 2 gassesemagnesammas.................................................gaggsmenge CBS pres. defends Schorr on CIA leak By PAUL EISENSTEIN CBS news president Richard Salant, yesterday defended CBS reporter Daniel Schorr for leaking classified information to both CBS and the Village Voice. "He was a marvelous investi- gative reporter," Salant said. "Through his own sources he got a copy of the Pike Commit- tee report on the CIA, and he reported on the contents of the report on CBS news before it was decided not to release the full report to the public." SALANT, HEAD of the na- tion's largest television news organization, defended Schorr's action in a discussion with fac- ulty and students of the Uni- versity's journalism department yesterday. "One of the media's primary functions," Salant said, "is to serve as a watchdog of the gov- erment." Schorr was CBS correspon- dent at the Pike Senate hear- ings on the CIA. Through pri- vate sources Schorr received a copy of the committee's final report and was loosely describ- ing the contents during por- tions of the network's news. When the Senate voted against making the report pub- lic, Schorr turned a copy over to the Village Voice -which pub- lished the findings in Febru- ary. He is now the target of a Congressional investigation. SALANT admitted there may be some truth to the report that the CIA had once recruited CBS journalists to work with the agency while still working for CBS. "There was a time when some of our stringers and per- haps some others on our staff were working with the CIA," Salant said. "I have seen no evidence that they tampered with our stories. That wasn't what they were in it for. They saw us as a way to help them See CBS, Page 10 Tenants right's bill to bun l ockouts By STU McCONNELL The State House of Representatives passed a bill Tuesday by a vote of 62-29 which would on-avinfir a ~ _CA leaj rwrle is used against the tenant personally, he may collect triple damages even under the present law. Although the language of Bullard's original bill was modified somewhat before it was voted on, he eynreser1 his satisfantinn with the measure more clear," she said. "Tenants won't be as easy to evict because the landlord has to go to court." Keller stated that some landlord abuses of the law go unpunished because many tenants don't know that such things as lockouts and power don't do any of those things, but such practices reflect badly on us." Wiser said that the methods of collection out- lawed by the bill are "not much of a prevalent practice in Ann Arbor because the tenants know
