Page Eleven Apartment cleaning fees upheld by court By CHRIS PARKS LANSING (UPI) - Cleaning fees for rented apartments and houses are legal and can be kept by the landlord, according to the Michigan Court of Ap- peals. A three-judge appeals panel yesterday upheld a ruling by Wayne County Circuit Judge Blair Moody, Jr., that rejected a class action suit filed by seven renters against a num- ber of landlordsaseeking to have non-refundable fees declared il- legal. THE SUIT also sought to force the defendants to refund the fees to all tenants who had paid them. The suit contended the non- returnable cleaning fees, which ranged from $40 to $75, were Army delays WASHINGTON (AP) - The Army unexpectedly delayed choosing between General Mo- tors and Chrysler Corp. on which would develop an advan- ced tank and told them to study how it could be equipped with the same key parts as West German tanks. Army Secretary Martin Hoff- man said yesterday a decision on the contract will be delayed until possibly late this year. At stake is a potential Army purchase of 3,325 XMI tanks for almost $5 billion. The Army was supposed to have decided this week whether General Motors or Chrysler had come up with the better design and which firm should begin the illegal under a 1972 state law which states a security deposit is the property of the tenant until the landlord can legally establish his right to keep all or part of it to cover for re- pairs, back rent or utility bills. "The non-returnable fee is agreed by covenant openly ap- proved at, calling for the pay- ment of a sum which does not fall within the definition of a security deposit," Moody wrote. "THE TENNANT could have no expectation that this sum or a part thereof should be re- turned. It is not a security de- posit. The 1872 act does not prohibit or limit such arrange- ment between landlord and ten- ant." The Court of Appeals merely adopted the Moody opinion as its own and affirmed it. tank choice contract to move into full scale development. This was to have been the preliminary step to a final cois- petition between the U.S. XM1 tank and West Germany's new Leopard II tank, supposedly to determine which the Pentagon would order into production. However, U.S. officials have indicated a growing belief in recent months that neither the U.S. nor the German tank will prove to be clearly superior and that they should move toward incorporating identical guns and engines into both. This they believed, would per- mit the two countries to use common ammunition and fuel, increasing combat effectiveness in their allied forces in Europe.

A, 7:30 & 9:30) - Frank Capra's 1934 romp about a runaway heiress (Claudette Colbert) and a de- termined reporter (Clark Gable) who pursues her remains per- haps the most completely date- less comedy ever made. As much a joy in 2076 as it is to- day. **** The Searchers - (Cinema Guild, Arch. Aud., 7:30 & 9:30) - John Ford's generation- spanning Western about a fron- tiersman (John Wayne) who spends years searching for his niece, who was kidnapped by Indians when still a child. Ar- guably Ford's best film, and unarguably the finest perform- ance Big Duke has ever turned in onscreen.* Sunday CINEMA Iron Horse - (Cinema Guild, Arch, Aud., 8 only) - John Ford's first film, and one of the most famous of all the si- lent Westerns. Admission is (ree Monday CINEMA hearts and Minds - (Sum- ler Film Showcase, MLB 3, 7:30 only) - A tremendously disturbing film about the Viet- nam debacle, seen through the ayes ofbothtthe war's partici- pants and those watching at home. Unabashedly Left in view- point, Hearts and Minds suffers from occasional and unneces- sary heavy - handedness in its juggling of news clips. But by and large, the film simply sits hack and lets the events speak for themselves - eloquently and terrifyinglydetailing Amer- ica's Dark Night of the Soul, Which all the smiles and sooth- lng words of this election year will not wash away. Admission to this film is FREE as part of the Summer Film Showcase series. It's the best movie bargain of the Sum- mer, and all Ann Arborites are urged to unbury their heads from the sand long enough to go see it. **** Tuesday California Split - (Ann Ar- bor Film Co-op, Ang. Aud. A, 7 & 9) - Probably Robert Alt- man's most successful effort to date, focusing on the lives of compulsive gamblers and their slow, sad realization that the gobs of money involved - whe- ther in winning or losing - are far less important to them than the game itself. The film is typically long on mood and short on plot, but in this case the atmospheric qualities are engrossing and true enough that they make the picture a success all by themselves. In the leads, George Segal is excellent as a desperate born- loser, Elliot Gould somewhat less effective as his more wor ldly chum.* Wednesday CINEMA Carnal Knowledge - (Ann Ar- bor Film Co-op, Ang. Aud. A, 7 & 9) - The Mike Nichols- J u I e s Feiffer collaboration about Anerican males hung utp in eternal adiolescence about its notions over the opposite sex. The film structures itself pret- ty much life a Feiffer comic strip, with most scenes confin- ed to two-person dialogues or one - person monologues - a technique rarely used in Ameri- can films but very effective here. However one regards, its psychological premise, Carnal Knowledge is richly entertain- ing and comic, bolstered by Jack Nicholson in his very fin- est - albeit typecast - per- formance. **** Th ursday CINEMAN Yellow Submarine - (Ann Arbor Film Co-op, Ang. Aud. A, 7, 8:45, 10:30) - It took a surprisingly long time for this cartoon wonder to catch on with the general public, per- haps because the film's con- cept and setting seemed too strange for Beatle lovers to identify with. In retrospect, this is one o fthe most imagi- native efforts of the entire ani- mation repertoire, and thor- oughly deserves its now mas- sive (if belated) audience. Carbonari, Italian meaning "charcoal burners," was a se- cret Italian society of the early 19th century, dedicated to the ideals of liberalism and unifica- tion of Italy. 000epKII( Oa 50c DISCOUN on admission with Student I.D.
