Two alternatives to busing-redrawing school district lines and "clustering" schools-were mentioned by the board members at their meeting Wednesday night. THE CLUSTERING concept involves two or more closely-located schools sharing a pool of students who would rotate from school to school depending on what grade they were in.- The project has two parts: one for improving racial balance among the schools and one for improving educational opportunity. The first part was submitted by School Superintendent Harry Howard at the board's March 26 meeting, and the second part was presented at Wednesday's meeting. The latter portion was not discussed by the board because of the late hour of the meeting. While the board took no final action, it did call for a committee of four of its members to discuss the alternatives with a Detroit computer firm that would help work out much of the project, regardless of which plan the board decides on. ONE ELEMENT of the proposed plan is orientation visits and bus rides for students who would be reassigned by Daily Official Bulletin Friday, April11, 1980 Daily Calendar WUOM: Inaugural special, Doris McLaughlin talks with William Haber, advisor to many U-M Presidents,t10:10a.m. Economics: Harold T.

There would also be cultural integration programs at newly- desegregated schools for both students and teachers. Also, transportation would be provided for those bused students who wish to participate in after-school activities. Other points of the plan include: " adapting teaching skills to provide a better atmosphere in the schools for children of all ethnic backgrounds; " setting up a 20:1 student/staff ratio;, " strengthening the instructional program for students by testing and a lawful distribution of teaching resources; and, . periodically evaluating staff performance and implementation patterns to make sure the plan is working well.- The outline is subject to change, pending discussion and voting by the board, before final implementation. Howard noted that parts of the plan may take up to a decade to put into effect. There has yet been no pricetag put on any part of the plan. Carter says 'Olympic boycott (Continued from Page 1) Meanwhile, the White House announ- ced yesterday that Carter had asked Vice President Walter Mondale to ad- dress the Olympic Committee's House of Delegates tomorrow before the vote on the boycott question. It was not clear immediately whether the delegates had invited Carter to the meeting, but the brief announcement from the office of press secretary Jody Powell noted that "the president is the honorary president of the USOC, and the vice president will be speaking in his behalf." IN ADDITION, three Soviet dissiden- ts now living in the United States, in- eluding poet Alexander Ginzberg, arrived in Colorado Springs yesterday to appeal to the USOC to recognize the boycott. USOC officials said Ginzburg and the two former Soviet athletes would be able to present their appeal to commit- tee Executive Director F. Don Miller, but could not take part in the critical debate in the House of Delegates. tCarter previously had told American athletes invited to the White House that the United States would not send a team to the Summer Games this year, but there have been suggestions that some athletes might seek a change in Olym- pic rules to permit them to participate as individuals or to compete without taking part in Olympic ceremonies. But Carter made clear in his speech to the editors that no such alternative is acceptable. "IF LEGAL actions are necessary to enforce the decision not to send a team to Moscow, I will take them," the president said. Powell said any administration ac- tion depends to some degree on what the International Olympic Committee, its U.S. component and the athletes themselves do. But he said the president contemplates an exercise of his executive authority. Compiled from Associated Press and United Press international reports British apologize to Saudis for showing execution film LONDON-Britain said yesterday it had expressed its "profound regret" to Saudi Arabia, an important trading partner, over a TV movie about a Saudi princess who was executed for adultery and her lover who was beheaded. The screening of the dramatized grisly 1977 execution on Britain's independent television Wednesday night apparently offended the Saudis because of its unflattering portrait of their royal family and the Islamic system of justice. "This film was very offensive to the whole Saudi royal family and to our country," a Saudi Embassy spokesperson in London said yesterday. "We have our own laws and our own morals which we keep to ourselves. It is difficult for anyone in England to understand the moral issues of this matter from Saudi Arabia's point of view." Schools reopen in Georgia town WRIGHTSVILLE, Ga.-Schools reopened in this racially-divided com- munity yesterday as the governor vowe to keep state troopers on hand and the U.S.,Justice Department said the outbreak of violence came as "no surprise." Schools were closed Wednesday after some blacks complained that armed white adults were appearing at the schools. Black leaders, meanwhile, obtained a permit for a march this afternoon and said that they would return to the streets repeatedly until their demands for better jobs and political opportunities were met. Lance denies fraud charges ATLANTA-Former federal budget director Burt Lance opened the defense of his bank fraud trial yesterday declaring that he had not issued a falsified financial statement to the Trust Co. Bank of Atlanta. President Carter's mother Lillian testified that Lance had more "honesty, integrity and truthfulness" than "anyone I know." Lance, Carter's longtime friend and former top level adviser, has been charged with two counts of making false statements to banks, and is also charged with ten counts of misapplying bank funds in loans to his relatives and friends. Lawmaker proposes tax cut LANSING-Rep. Mark Siljander (R-Three Rivers) announced yester- day a petition drive to put his property tax cut plan before the voters, saying he doubts the legislature will agree on a ballot proposal of its own. He said his proposal involves a net tax reduciton of $300 million that he said is needed to head off the more drastic Tisch tax cut plan. The proposal would slash property taxes from 50 per cent to 70 per cent by eliminating the charges on the first mills levied. It would also make it dificult for future legislatures to hike state taxes by requiring a two-thirds vote rather than the current simple majority.

Recognizing Arab rights in these territories "is the only sure way to peace and harmonious existence," Sadat said in a speech to the National Press Club. Sadat also added that an autonomy plan that has eluded negotiators for more than ten months could be worked out "in hours, not days," if Israeli Prime Minister Menachem Begin comes to an understanding with him and Carter. Israel troops continue Lebanon patrols METULLA, Israel-Some 360 Israeli troops patrolled the mountainous region of southern .Lebanon yesterday searching for possible Palestinian guerrillas planning raids into Israel, a U.N. spokesperson said. Meanwhile, Libanon requested a U.N. Security Council session to discuss the "explosive situation" caused by the Israeli presence. Israeli military sources defended the two-day old incursion as strictly a defense move aimed at keeping Palestinian guerrillas from crossing the Lebanese-Israeli border to attack Jewish settlements as they did Monday, killing three Israelis. The five raiders were also killed. 4 J 4 / 'kIVESifTY c jMUSCA L 8OCIETY pres en t ShniHS M 0 NICHOLS ARBORETUM The Arb is a Michigan tradition for all seasons.
