Detroit, or Philadelphia) is willing to service the needs
of the delegates. We're looking at each city's general
attitude and desire. New York wants it (the conven-

Detroit). All three cities want it. It's a tough decision,"
Fowler said.

'U' salary
information
insufficient
for state
By SARA ANSPACH
Salary information submitted by the
University to the State Senate Ap-
propriations Committee on Monday is
not sufficient for the state's needs, a
spokesperson for the committee said
yesterday.
In response to a request by Senator
Jerome Hart (D-Saginaw), Chairman
of the Appropriations committee that
the University submit name-linked
salary information, University Interim
President Allan Smith sent data on
salaries by position titles to Lansing
Monday. The information did not in-
clude individual salaries by name.
"WE'VE HEARD nothing from the
Senate Appropriations committee (on
the salary data released Monday),"
said Smith. "We do hope that it fills
their need."
Even though the information the
University sent to Lansing Monday is
more detailed than previously submit-
ted salary data, it does not meet the
state's needs, said an aide to Hart.
"The Appropriations committee has
not decided what action to take, but
some action will be taken," a
spokesperson for Hart said Monday.

OF THE 13 universities requested to
submit salaries by name, only the
University and Michigan Technologcal
University (MTU) have not complied.
Senate Appropriations Clerk Amy
Schnetzler said MTU had legal reasons
for not complying with the committee's
request. "They are in the middle of a
am), and lawsuit (which deals directly with the
ts- issue of releasing salaries by name to
the list of the public) and cannot do anything
