HIghs sld be in the mid-0s- Regents name Dunn as cher signing TRIPOLI, Libya '-The Libyan govern- ment confirmed early today that it's leader, Col. Moammar Khadafy, resigned on July It. But the statement said the resignation was refused the same day. Cairo's official M i d d I e East N e w s Agency reported last night that Khadafy announced his resignation in a message to President Anwar Sadat of Egypt, not- ing thit he took the action July 11. TODAY'S COMMUNIQUE from the ru- ing Revolutionary Command C o u n c it (RCC) of which Khadafy is chairman, confirmed that the libyan strongman step- ped down July 11, but added: "The mem- bers of the RCC rejected the resignation on the very day it was presented by Cot Khadafy." The council communique was carried y the official Libyan News Agency. It said Khadafy resigned his posts as president and chairman of the council in a cable to Sadat to clear the way for the proposed merger between the two Arab nations. It said Khadafy had "no atithority" tos resign, since he was called to leadership by the will of the Libyan people. KHADAFY HAS periodically resigned or threatened to resign in the past, but has remained in firm control if the lead- ership among the young Libyan officers who toppled the monarchy of King Idris in September 1969. He has been chairman of the ruling council ever since. He became president a year ago after resigning as premier. That post was taken by Maj. Abdel Salarim Jalloid, another council merrber. The Cairo news agency report indicates Khadafy reaffirmed his resignation yes- terday in a message 1i Sadat in which he disclaimed responsibility for a march by 20,000 Libyans into Egypt. THE "UNITY TREK" was designed to push the Egyptians, who prefer to go slow on the mrerger, toward Khadafy's objective of union by Sept . Instead of promotig unity, the trek and Khadafy's message yesterday appar- ently have created greater friction The Egyptians blew up a section of the main highway to Cairo near Mersa Ma- truh on yesterday to halt the six-mile- long Libyan procession. KHADAFY SPENT 17 days in Cair, ending early this month, in a vain quest for his goal of early union between oil- rich but sparsely populated Liba and its populous but poor neighbor. The young Libyan was quoted as saying his fellow officers had tried to dissuade him and that he had "resigned frt the realization of unity with Egypt and eras- ing its obstacles." The report was published in Cairo sirt' ly after the release of an appeal by Saiat to the Libyan leadership to halt "an in- vasion" by the unity t r e k k e r s from Tripoli. icontradict rRPP trial DAVIS REFUSED to answer.

On the stand yesterday, Wagner admit- ted he sold incense as opium. He fur- ther said he believed his image was badly damaged as a result. ,d eptc By JACK KROST Acting c h a i r m a n of the Chemistry Department Thomas Dunn, who suspended controversial Prof. Mark Green last Oc- tober, has been named permanent depart- ment chairman by the Board of Regents. The Regents approved the appointment without discussion d u r i n g yesterday's meeting. THE APPROVAL was granted despite an ad-hoc advisory board of Chemistry Department faculty members which cri- ticized Dunn's handling of the Green affair. Dunn relieved Green of his teaching duties for "misuse of class time" when he showed an anti-war slide show to his classes. The slides depicted how American technological research, and by implica- tion the University which engages in such research, played a role in the Vietnam war. Green was reinstated pending the com- mittee report. The report criticized both Green and Dunn, but suggested Green be permanently reinstated. THE FINDINGS condemned Dunn for failing to communicate with Green before dismissing him and for later "reassigning Green without personally confronting him with a fuller basis for reassignment." Green has since been denied tenure by the literary college, allegedly for reasons other than the slide show incident. He has been assigned a "soft" schedule teach- ing only a two credit, independent study course until his present contract ends neat year. Green refused to comment on Dinn's appointment, telling The Daily, "If you quote me on anything, I'll come down there and kick your ass." AS DEPARTMENT chairman, Dunn re- luctantly admitted he will continue tia pursue the problem of "misuse of class time. TaPe Couh testimony By DAVID STOLL SpecIal to The Daiy CADILLAC, MI. - Under intense cross examination during the trial of Rainbow People's Party (RPP) members Pun Pla- mondon and Craig Blazier, prosecution witness Uwe Wagner revealed the exist- ence of taped conversations between him- self and State Police officers. Defense counsel Hugh "Buck" Davis claimed the tapes may reveal contradic- tions with Wagner's sworn testimony. WEXFORD COUNTY Circuit Court Judge William Peterson, who is hearing the case, denied a defense motion asking the release of those tapes. Prosecutor John Wilson admitted the tapes exist but said they contain only "ir- relevant and immaterial" information. "It is only fair for Dr. Davis to explain whether he means to say that the prose- cution has deliberately attempted to mis- lead im," he said.
