In Washington, a Carter ad-

Carter had pledged U.S. willingness "to

and non-interference in Afghanistan's
internal affairs" once the estimated
70,000 Soviet troops withdraw from the
Central Asian nation.
The official refused to say the
president's comments, contained in a
letter, represented a reply to Soviet
President Leonid I. Brezhnev. But
Brezhnev said last week, "Let the U.S.
together with the neighbors of
fghanistan guarantee non-

Soviet military assistance will cease to

By STEVE HOOK
Within five minutes after the West Engineering
Building supervisor called the Ann Arbor Fire Depar-
tment last Thursday night, five fully equipped trucks
were steaming toward the old building.
Trucks surrounded the red-brick structure at the '
corner of South and East University Streets as a team
of five firefighters rushed inside to find the cause of
the alarm.1
AFTER PINPOINTING the source of smoke in an
elevator shaft the firefighters diagnosed the problem
as an overheated transformer. One of the men
radioed to the squads waiting outside that they could
return to their respective stations.
University security officer Terry Seames watched
the scene and said, "This sort of thing happens all the
time."
As of Monday, the AAFD had responded to 451 calls
since January, approximately 20 per cent of these
calls came from the University. Last year over 600 of
the city's 3,457 calls came from the University, most
fire fighters busy
of those from residence hall alarms.
ACCORDING TO AAFD officials the call to West
Engineering last week cost $1000 dollars, ap-
proximately $200 per truck for the five trucks respon-
ding.
The University, through the state, helps to sub-
sidize the fire department's operations, providing 18
per cent of its budget. The University will provide
$300,000 of the AAFD's $16 million budget this year.
"The state will reimburse cities for protection of
state property," explained University Fire Marshall
Russ Downing, "and the University is state proper-
ty."
ALTHOUGH THE vast majority, of these calls
are either false alarms or minor fires such as "trash
can" or bulletin board fires, the AAFD responds in
full force to every call.
"It doesn't matter to us whether it's a waste basket
fire or a real one," said Deputy Fire Marshall Ben
Zahn in an interview yesterday.
"We don't take the chance of sending too little
equipment," said AAFD Fire Marslall Nolan Lee.
"It's not a waste of money to put out a.fire, however
small, before it gets out of hand."
"Whenever there's a multiple-story building in-
volved, they'll run everything to it," said University
Marshall Downing, "because they don't know."
"Nobody likes to see them called out for false
alarms, or even trash can fires," Downing continued,
"but small fires often become big fires, and you
really can't afford not to call the fire department."
Downing referred to a series of five alarms at East
Quad last weekend. A full force of fire trucks respon-
ded to the calls, each of which turned out to be inten-
tionally set minor blazes.
As fire investigators for the AAFD both Lee and
Zahn spend much 'of their time searching for ar-
sonists who abuse the AAFD's response facilities.
"We're bound to determine what caused every fire
we respond to, and who caused it," Lee said.
two-to-one margin in the Iowa caucuses-
last month, the president has stuck to
his Rose Garden strategy, while the
Massachusetts senator has continued to
attack him on both foreign and
domestic affairs.
IN A NEWS conference two weeks
ago, Carter said he prefers
campaigning but must stay in the White
House to "solve the foreign -crisis."
Instead, he once again dispatched an
army of surrogates to convey his record
to New Hampshire. voters. Vice
President Walter Mondale, First Lady
Rosayln Carter, and other members of
the Carter entourage have criss-
crossed the state in recent days in an
attempt to knock Kennedy out of the
race.
And as Robert Strauss, the
President's national campaign
manager, has often promised, the Rose
Garden strategy will stick as long as
the Carter machine rolls smoothly onto
the Democratica Convention in New
York in August.

dies Monday
Robert Hayden, award-winning
poet and University English
professor, died Monday night at
University Hospital of apparent
heart failure.
HAYDEN, 66, was among several
American poets recently recognized
at the White House by President and
Mrs. Carter. A University professor
since 1969, Hayden was the first
black to hold the position of Con-
sultant in Poetry to the Library of
Congress in 1976-77.
Last Sunday the poet was honored
at a reception sponsored by the
University Center for Afro-
American and African Studies.
Reportedly ill with the flue, Hayden
did not attend the event which
featured tributes by a number of
famous American poets and
novelists.
The author of six volumes of
poetry, Hayden won the grand prize
for poetry at the First World
Festival of Negro Arts in Dakar,

lucky to get 20 per cent of the vote."
GREENE CLAIMED his represen-

a whole and his stress on the issues
have given him the support of students
and non-students. "We've always got-

he said. "But the notion that you need a

Hayden completed his graduate
studies at the University after ear-

Spanish from Wayne State Univer-

University faculty.
A private burial service will be

"I THINK I have a chance if we can
get out there and tell people there's a
new candidate," the twenty-year-old
Burton said. But running as a
Republican in the Second Ward could
hurt Burton's chances. The ward is 85
per cent students, and includes the hill
dorms and a large number of apar-
tments.
Greene, the 43-year-old incumbent

take the Burton threat seriously -
because Burton is a Republican.

As a Republican, Burton thinks she
could get more done for the ward since
the party holds seven of the eleven
council seats.
She asserted that if elected, she
would work on ward issues with the

Remember chicken-fights, the adolescent jousting

Several farmers in Topeka, Kansas seem to be letting off
a lot of hot air over local balloon travelers. The balloons,
most of which are equipped with gas burners, are

"I have a neighbor who had to sell three cows because they

Abner McCall Monday demanded that the 30-person staff of
the Lariat, Baylor's student newspaper, resign unless it
follows his guidelines regarding editorial criticism of his
anti-Playboy policy. McCall said the newspaper is owned
by the university and therefore he has publisher's rights to
control editorial comment. Playboy's director of
soliciting, Dave Salyers, said yesterday that such reactons
don't discourage the magazine's staff. When told of these
two developments, Salyers responded, "That's hysteri-
