A high ranking City Hall official yes- terday listed the closely guarded names of five local police officers involved in the alleged brutalizing of members of the Blue Magic rock group three months ago. According to the highly reliable source, the city officers' names also ap- pear in City Administrator Sylvester Murray's report of the incident - a ver- sion of Police Chief Walter Krasny's un- released study of the affair. THE BLUE MAGIC band was stop- ped May 10 by some ten county sher- iff's deputies and the five city police- men, who suspected that one member of the group was carrying a concealed gun. Krasny has maintained that he would not release the names of the officers concerned in the incident, because do- ine so could embarrass them. names must come out . , need to come out," and cited officers Phillip Scheel and Robert Haarer as being involved in the reported brutality. OFFICERS Walter Johnson, Steven Prussian and David Woodside were also reported on the scene, but were search- ing a van some 300 yards away from where the 'alleged police misconduct took place. Six band members have since field a $12 million law suit, contending they suffered physical and verbal abuse from two deputies and two city police offic- ers. However, they could only identify the county officers by name. While the band's civil suit, drawn up by the prominent Michigan criminal lawyer Ivan Barris, contends, "An un- identified police officer assaulted vocal- ist Ted Mills by standing on his left ny reaffirmed his belief yesterday that his men are innocent. "THEY DIDN'T do anything so far as we know," Krasny said. However, he added, "There were some questionable areas that we checked back on, but didn't find anything" Although the police chief reports he has not uncovered any misconduct on either Haarer's or Scheel's part, Wash- tenaw County Sheriff Fred Postill fired two of his deputies, Randy Evans and William Tommelein, in June after his in- vestigation found that they "grossly and negligently mishandled" both the band and its property. MAYOR Albert Wheeler indicated yes- terday that he wished to question Haar- er and Scheel on the incident but did not do so because "our hands are tied in how far we can go because of the Wheeler stated that he believed City flall's contract with the police union prohibited his questioning officers. The city and the police department are also involved in binding arbitration over a police contract which City Coun- cil rejected last month. Wheeler said the arbitration hearings are tied in with his decision not to conduct his own investigation. "If the thing (the Blue Magic inci- dent) were not in court then we could handle it differently," Wheeler also commented. "We would have a differ- ent kind of responsibility." Barris has stated he will subpoena police logs in an attempt to get more information on the incident. The Blue Magic trial date has not been set yyet but is expected to be placed on the docket soon.

ISRAELI DEFENSE MINISTER Shit Peres later said the raids were "preventive" and "not panitise." Peres told a conference of military iidustry workers in Tel Aviv the Israeli action prevented "terrorists, their command and those who are behind them" from attacking Israeli settlements. Ste said the raids were not directed against Lebanon or its army. In the midst of the attacks, Palestinian gunners fired a re- taliatory barrage of Katyusha rockets at the northern Israeli border town of Qiryat Shmonah, wounding one resident, the Tel Aviv command said.

Women's Studies sil become a full fledged concentration pro- gram in September, complete with a new chairwoman, Louise Tilly, according to Margaret Lourie, present head of the pro- gram. IN PLACE of the two-year- old Women's Studies program, a cohesive curriculum has been developed which approaches a woman's relationship to herself and society from both a theo- retical and practical perspec- tive, said Lourie. "We had a definite philoso- phy about what sort of courses a woman studies major should offer-all we've really done is organize and solidify those ideas," she explained. "The former program was really only a collection of courses," added Lourie. How- ever the new major will require students to complete a six-hour research project over the period of one year, as well as partici- pating in a field, project. "THE FIELD project," said Lowrie, "involves being placed in a community agency-hope-, fully dealing with women in one way or another." Though other- programs are being sought, the woman's crisis center will bene- fit from the brunt of the out- reach efforts, she pointed out. The m a j o r will also in- corporate additional introductory classes and a nine-hour cognate into the 24-hour program. "Be- cause Women's Studies is an in- terdisciplinary program we feel that a pretty strong tie to at least one traditional discipline is important," explained Lourie. Plans for the new major be- gan a year ago, she said, when an ad-hoc committee of students and faculty began a drive for a full fledged Women's Studies department. "IT WENT very well, the Col- lege Curriculum committee ask- ed a few questions about it and approved the major, unanimous- ly, then the Executive commit- tee did the same thing." But providing students with a chance to graduate with a de- gree in Women's Studies was not as important to the commit- tees as giving the program it- self some sort of unity,. added Lourie. "Though a major does make it easier on undergradu- ates-they don't have todo an independent-study . and we now have our own counselors to help them." Jury inspects exhibits allegedly showing Litte panned jailreak RALEIGH, N.C. 5) - Jurors in the Joan Little murder trial inspected three crossword puzzle books and a newspaper containing notations the prose- cution said were made by Little. Meanwhile, U.S. S u p r e m e Court Chief Justice Warren Bur- ger refused a request yesterday to reinstate Morris Dees as a member of Little's defense team. Dees was removed July 30 by Superior Court Judge Hamilton Hobgood. THE PROSECUTION contends Little, a 21-year-old black, fat- ally stabbed white jailer Clar- ence Alligood, 62, with an ice- pick in an escape attempt. Pros- ecutors said the written mate- rial came from her Beaufort County jail cell and would show that she had plotted an escape before Alligood's death last Aug. 27. Little has contended she was defending herself from a sexual attack by Alligood and fled the jail to protect her life. Hobgood rejected two defense motions to supress the notations even though D.C. Matheny, a State Bureau of Investigation handwriting e x p e r t, said he could not positively identify the writing as Little's. MATHENY c o m p a r e d the printed and script notations with a signature on a document she signed last September and said all he could identify were sig- natures in two puzzle books. He said the signatures alone was not sufficient to determine if she wrote the other notes. Matheny read entries from the puzzle books which referred to her desire to get out of jail and love for a man named "Roger," An entry dated "Monday 7-29- 74" said: "Cried a little today.
