C4C t1,3 t C [tAYi Vol. LXXXI, No. SQ-S Ann Arbor, Michigan-Wednesday, July 21, 1971 Ten Cents Eight Pages plus Supplement IKyelley rules 18-yr.-olds can holdstate posts LANSING (R) -Atty. Gen. Frank Kelley ruled yester- day that young people between the ages of 18 and 21, can now hold any public office in Michigan for which they are otherwise qualified and which has no specific age limita- tion. Kelley said his ruling is based on the adoption of the 26th amendment to the U.S. Constitution, which provides that the rights of citizens 18 years of age or older cannot y ~be abridged by any state because of age. Theoretically, therefore, Michigan could have an 18- year-old Secretary of State run- nine the licensing and regulation ef the state's motorists. There could be 18-year-old sher- iffs. As well, young people the same age could control the gov- erning boards of the University, Michigan State University and Wayne State University. An 18-year-old Ann Arbor resi- dent could also become mayor or any other official of the city according to Kelley's ruling. "This is an excellent develop- ment," Kelley said yesterday. "It will inure effectively bring young people into the system by allowing them to run for office. Hopefully, in some cases, they will win. I am thinking in par- ticular of positions on the gov- erning boards of the universi- ties." Kelley supplied a list of public offices for which the young peo- ple are qualinied, including those with minimum age provisions. The governor and lieutenant governor must be at least 38. So must a U.S. senator. Representa- tives in Congress must be at least 25. State senators and rep- resentatives need only be 21. There is no minimum age re- quirement for Michigan's secre- tary of state-third highest stale elective office. Thus, an 18-year- old could run. Heyns opts for ACE, rej eels 'U' President Robben Fleming an- nounced yesterday that Roger Heyns, formerly chancellor of the University of California at Berkeley, has accepted the presi- dency of the American Council on Education (ACE) rather than tak- ing a position offered him at the University.

Heyns however, informed the University "some time ago" Fleming said that he had also been offered the ACE presidency.
