By ALAN LENHOFI
Although the Legislature has not yet finalized the
University's appropriation for the current fiscal year, Uni-
versity officials ,have already received discouraging news
about next year's general fund allocation from the state.
In a letter sent to all state colleges, John Dempsey,
director of the Governor's budget bureau, has announced
that appropriation requests from the colleges for fiscal

sponses to a number of newly adopted policies designed
to save money and possibly avert further tax increases.
Among the new policies is one
that wold serve to level off un-

state's larger universities while
placing greater emphasis on ex-

collective barganing

By JIM IRWIN
The Senate Assembly com-
inittee studying the possibilities
of collective bargaining or alter-
native methods for the faculty
to "more decisively affect Uni-
versity of Michigan financial
and organizational policies" has
urged University faculty mem-
bers to be cautious about tak-

ing active steps towards insti-
tuting faculty collective b a r -
gaining at the present time.
In a communication recently
sent to the faculty, the Com-
mittee on the Rights and Re-
sponsibilities of Faculty M e m-
bers, 1971, stated that "well-
financed efforts toward organ-
ized (faculty) collective bar-

SAIGON (A') - South Viet-
nam's Supreme Court yesterday
disqualified Vice President
Nguyen Cao Ky as a candidate
in the presidential elections,
narrowing the field to President
Nguyen Van Thieu and tetired
Gen. Duong Van "Big" Minh.
The court ruled Ky failed to
pualify because 39 of his 102
endorsements duplicated those
already given to Thieu, and thus
were invalid. Ky needed 100 to
gain a place on the ballot for
the Oct. 3 election.
Shortly after being notified of
the court's ruling, Ky said he
had made -no decision as to
what action he would take next.
Under the election law Ky
can appeal the court's decision
within the next eight days.
Such an appeal would be ruled

make a full report and f i n a 1
recommendations on collective
bargaining in September.
Faculty unioniation, tradi-
tionally scorned by cllee pro-
fessors as a means to "nip now-
er, has been an isue of widen-
ing interest at the University
during the past year.
A poll taken by the local chap-
ter of the American Association
of University Professors
of U n i v e r s i t y Professors
(AAUP) last January showed
considerable faculty interest in
the possibilities of collective
bargaining and yet some reser-
vations.
According to Prof. Wilbert
McKeachie, at that time pres-
ident of AAUP, comments writ-
ten on questionnaires indicated
that there Were "quite a num-
ber of faculty who feel that
collective bargaining would de-
stroy the concept of the aca-
demic community."
In response to local interest
in collective bargaining, a sym-
posium will be presented on
September 17 and 18 in the
Michigan League Ballroom by
the Institute of Continuing Le-
gal Education to discuss "fast-
moving recent developments,
legal questions and practical
problems of collective bargain-
ing for professionals on c a m-
puses."

New sales technique
This coffee advertisement which has appeared in Sweden is a
phony, say owners of the Gevalia coffee company for which it ap-
peared. The picture, however, is not-with one small exception.
The hand is that of a swedish blosde who originally modelled for
the ad. A poster artist says he copied an official Nixon portrait
from the U.S. Embassy and coupled it with part of a Gevalia
coffee ad.
