How to save your bike By BILL LEAVITT It's 10:17 p.m. Thursday, June 28. and Jim Hutchinson is hard at work on the sixth floor of the Graduate Library. He gazes. out the window, and sees two figures kneeling by his ten- speed bicycle. He races downstairs, runs out to the bike rack. Too late. his bike is gone. What can Jim do? If he'calls the police, he will find he is one of ten people to have' their bikes stolen that day in Ann Arbor --- one of about sixty-five people to have their bikes stolen that week. Sgt. Harold Rady of the Ann Arbor , Police Dept. estimates that between fifty and seventy bikes are stolen in Ann Arbor each week. Including expensive ten-speeds, which average about $125 per bike, that represents about $6250. Many of the stolen bikes are expensive ten-:speeds, which are taken out of Ann Arbor and re- sold in other locations. Some are changed beyond recognition - serial numbers are erased and replaced. So the ordinance re- quiring Ann Arbor bike stores to file a report on any used bikes they buy does not help. According to Rady, the police are just beginning to realize the extent of the problem and the size of the loss. The num- ber of stolen bikes could dou- ble or even triple in the fall. Bike racks are under heavier surveillance and the police dE'- partinent is investigating means of prevention and detection. "We need citizen involve- ment," says Rady. "It is only logical the bike riders should seek their own means of theft prevention.' If you ride your bike in Ann Arbor or on campus and must leave it unattended, always lock it, Rady says. The best type of chain, ac- cording to Chuck Gilboe, of Schlenker Hardware Store, is made of case hardened steel, one-half an inch thick, Most riders lock their bikes with chains that are one-quarter to three-eights of an inch thick. because one-halt inch chains are heasv and cumbersome. A chain with links less than one- half of an inch thick can easily be cipped with a fifty-dollar See STOPPING, Page 12 ArN AOganRMCtHG ANN ARBOR.

SEPT. 8, 9, AND JO Blues-jazzL By MERYL GORDON The Ann Arbor Blues and Jazz festival has been revived this year and top talents will be playing on the Otis Spann Memorial Field on Sept. 8, 9. and 10. Sponsored by the Rainbow Corporation, UAC, and Project Community, artists Miles Da- vis, Otis Rush, Archie Shepp, Dr. John, Muddy Waters, Sun Ra, Charles Mingus, Jr. Walker and the All-Stars, Freddie King, Luther Allison and many others will be kicking off the first weekend of the school year with a five concert series. Promoter Peter Andrews ex- pects no problem in selling the necessary 6,000 - 7,000 tickets needed to break even, and ex- pects that the concert series will be sold out easily. "We're gearing this concert to the people of Ann Arbor, and our major advertising effort is in this aity," said Andrews. "We're sending a mailing out for 25,000 student, telling them that this is their opportunity to get tickets. We don't want them to come back in th. that everything's especially since partially sponsor sity groups."

"The film will show if the prisoner is hurt or bleeding or drunk when he comes in or whether he is in fine shape. We've discussed this with the area judges and prosecutor and they think it is a fine idea," Wilson added. At present two other coun- ties in the state - Lenawee and Bay - have put such a system into operation. Accord- ing to Wilson both have re- ported good results. The statement, reported by' the government news agency, Tass, was the first time the Russians have officially admit- ted that Soviet armed forces advisers were operating in Egypt. The statement by Tass car- ries complete Kremlin sanction, and ranks only below an of- ficial Soviet government pro- nouncement. The agency omitted reference to specific numbers of Russians in Egypt or how long they had been training the Egyptians. The statement indicated that Moscow had been aware of the situation in advance of Sadat's announcement. Meanwhile, British authorities reported yesterday that Egypt has been checking prospects of buying arms from Britain, pos- siblyto counterSoviet cutoff of modern offensive weapons. The informal inquiries by Egypt began some weeks ago, sources said, when it became clear the Soviet Union and the United States were limiting shipments of war goods to the Arab countries and Israel. British officials linked this exercise of Soviet - American restraint to President Nixon's talks in Moscow last May.

President Fleming's office will ask the Regents to discuss whether the salaries of Univer- sity personnel should be open to the public: The discussion comes in the wake of a request by the Daily for a salary disclosure. In a suit brought by the Bay City Times recently, Delta College and Saginaw Valley College were ordered to make salary figures public. The case is cur- rently under appeal. The salary discussion is sched- uled for 11 a.n. on Friday. Also under discussion will be a number of legal matters involved with the University's plan to divest itself of the controversial Willow Run research facilities. The Willow Run labs are 'the site of 90 per cent of the Uni- versity's classified and military research. A new structure for student government fee assessments will also be considered by the Re- gents who meet in a conference room on the first floor of the Administration Bldg. In a departure from the prac- tice of recent months, there will be no open meeting on Thurs- day.
