Exerting our independence
Tomorrow morning, when you are munching on
Rice Krispies and cursing our delivery person for
failing to bring you the Daily, stop and think a
moment about how much you've been looking for-
ward to this long holiday weekend, and you'll un-
derstand why the paper isn't on your doorstep. You
see, we like vacations too, and you wouldn't want to
begrudge us a little time off, would you? After all,
chances are nothing too important will happen
anyway, so you won't miss us much. So enjoy your-
self this weekend, and we'll be back to share break-
fast with you bright and early Thursday morning.

mong these categories, only those for research
ment and general support increased in terms of
the 1972 constant dollar.
HOWEVER, THESE INCREASES were not large
enough to offset the declines in other categories. Total
research and development plant obligations declined from
$45 million to $24 million in 1976.
The University received $57,920,000 in federal academic
science obligations, more than half of which came from the
department of Health, Education, and Welfare (HEW). Of
the $31,414,000 from HEW, $26,521,000 went into the research
and development category.
University expenditures in federally-funded research in
the fiscal year ending in 1977 were $54,117,585, according to
Vice-President for Research Charles Overberger. This was
71.2 per cent of the total research volume, Overberger said.
He estimated the total research volume for that year at $76
million.
THE FIGURE FOR 1977 did not include fellowships,
traineeships, and training grants, according to Dennis
Cebulski, assistant to the director of the Division of Resear-
ch, Development and Administration.

Cat calls
Bob and Eda Moore were all set-to drive from
Mobile, Alabama to their new home in Birmingham
when they noticed that something was missing -
the cat. Moore and some of his friends fruitlessly
searched the grounfs for over an hour when a
neighbor's six-year-old let them in on the cat's
secret hiding place - an old sewer. And sure
enough, that's where she was, but she was too far to
reach, and refused to respond to coaxing. Then Eda
Moore remembered that the cat always came run-
ning when she heard the sound of an electric can
opener (a sound which portended that dinner was
imminent). But the Moore's can opener was packed
away in the moving van, so, as good neighbors will
do, one loaned them an electric can opener while
another found a 50-foot extension cord, and another
let them use his outlet. "I have never felt so foolish
in my life," said Moore. "A man's just not supposed
to stand in the street, with friends and neighbors
laughing at him, and operate a can opener,
especially without a can to open." But the story has
ahappy ending because as soon as she heard that
magic sound the recalcitrant cat came bounding
out.
On the outside..
If you are planning a holiday outing this weekend
you're in luck-if you like heat and sun and
humidity (you know, the kind of steamy weather
we've had all week). The forecast calls for a high of
82 today; 86 on Saturday, and possibly 90on Sunday.
The lows will be more comfortable, of the 60-65
variety, but the humidity will continue to make a
pleasant sleeping little more than a dream.
