Franklin, 31, an. avowed racist, was' convicted Saturday of first-degree murder in the snipe shootings of two black joggers, While being held for questioning at police headquarters in Florence, Ky., on Sept. 25, 1980, Franklin had escaped through a first-floor window when an officer turned his back briefly. AS THE COURT in Salt Lake City- was reconvening after a 10-minute recess, a bailiff motioned urgently to plainclothes officiers seated in front of the press row. After watching several plainclothes officers summoned from the room, reporters quickly left the courtroom, ran downstairs and obser- veda number of law enforcement of- ficers scurrying around the outside of the building. Finally, sheriff's Lt. Dean Carr con- firmed that Franklin was missing. At least two dozen sheriff's deputies began combing the buildingand the area at once. Before the recess, the prosecution told the 12-member all-white jury that Franklin does not consider blacks to be human and showed no remorse for his victims, Ted Fields, 20, and David Martin, 18. The closing argument by Deputy Salt Lake County Attorney Robert Stott came afte the prosecution declined to present any witnesses at a penalty hearing for Franklin. The defense presented just one witness, Franklin's sister. The two blacks were gunned down Aug.-20, 1980, by a sniper while jogging with two white women near Salt Lake City's Liberty Park.!

But not all have gone as far as Pan American World Airways, Trans World Airlines and Braniff by actually demanding that workers accept pay cuts and wage freezes. The Air Transport Association, a trade group, reported last week that the controllers' strike and the earlier threat of one, in June, had cost the airlines $250 million in lost business and had forced as many as 14,000 layoffs. - Weinberger says $13 billion in defense cuts 'the maximum' WASHINGTON (AP)- Defense Secretary Caspar Weinberger said yesterday $13 billion is "the maximum" that can be cut from the military budget during the next three years without impairing a planned arms buildup. Weinberger gave few details in outlining the $13 billion in cuts recommen- ded by President Reagan and said the administration remains "fully com- mitted" to upgrading U.S. military might. He said there has been "no change whatever in the Soviet threat" and stressed the administration "will work steadily on expanding our capabilities for deterring or prosecuting a global war wit the Soviet Union." He said the administration still plans to improve pay and living standards. in the services; upgrade training and equipment; insure nuclear parity with the Soviets; and expand capabilities for deterring or prosecuting a global war rather than "only short wars in selected theaters." Warsaw Pact gains edge in conventional, nuclear forces LONDON (AP)- The Soviet-led Warsaw Pact has increased its nuclear missile advantage over NATO in the European theater and the West has "largely lost" a technological edge in conventional forces, the International Institute for Strategic Studies said today. "One cannot necessarily assume from this that NATO could suffer defeat in war, but one can conclude that there has been sufficient danger in the trend to require urgent remedies," it said. The Institute also said in its annual survey of the military capability of countries around the world that while stocks of existing chemical weapons are-impossible to assess, the Soviet Union may have considerably more than the United States. But in a brief reference to Poland, where the independent union Solidarity has fueled unrest for a year, the institute said evepts "have underlined the long-standing uncertainty on whether Soviet planners can count on the loyalty of all Warsaw Pact members in the event of a European war. Spy court-martial proceedings halted in wiretap dispute ANDREWS AIR FORCE BASE, Md. (AP)- The espionage court-martial of 2nd Lt. Christopher Cooke was halted indefinitely yesterday when Cooke's lawyers asked the court to suppress evidence apparently obtained through electronic surveillance of the Soviet embassy in Washington. - An Air Force spokesman,-Col. John Williams, told reporters that the defense had entered a motion to suppress evidence that the government had obtained under authority of the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act. That law, passed in 1978, authorizes the government to conduct electronic surveillance of foreign embassies. Several of the charges against Cooke in- volve telephone calls he allegedly made to the Soviet embassy and failed to report to his superior officers. 0 0 S S SING A SONG! with the U-M WOMEN'S GLEE CLUB Positions still available for fall Ca//665-7408 (Continued from Page 1) ' THE JAZZ promoter received a $1,500 grant from the Michigan Council for the Arts this season, as opposed to last year's federal and state grants of $9,6000. The remainder of its funds come from ticket sales. If not for last year's grant, director Dehn said, Eclip- se would have lost money. Other concerts scheduled this season-in addition to the James benefit-include Betty Carter on Nov. 6 and Dave Brubeck on Dec. 15., Part of the reason Eclipse is eligible for federal and state arts grants is that it sponsors jam sessions and workshops' to help young players develop. These sessions are scheduled at various times throughout the year. Prime Production owners Tom Stachler and Lee Berry said it is still too early to forecast success this year. Both agree they are in a "risky" business. What Prism tries to do, ex- plained Stachler and Berry, is to bring in musical acts considered up-and- coming as opposed to "mainstream" groups booked by Major Events., The Prism owners said their em- phasis now is on making a name for themselves and building a reputation for their promotion company.

NEXT SUMMER, the Fuller-Glen corridor will be closed and buses will travel the hospital access road, curren- tly being built by the University, across Nichols Bridge and-onto the finished section of Fuller. The road project, which is targeted for completion by November, 1982, was accelerated to facilitate the hospital construction, Chizek said. Chizek and city engineers stressed that the com- pletion date is "optimistic." University hospital planners and city engineers have been coordinating their sewer, utilities, and road construction plans in order to save money andbuild more efficiently, Rasche said. THE UNIVERSITY and the city are each paying 10 percent of the projected $7 million cost of the new road, with the rest of the tab covered by federal funds, Chizek said. Once the construction dust has cleared, students will find the Fuller- Glen-University Hospital area dramatically changed: " Glen Ave. will become a one-way street between Catherine and Huron, with Washtenaw Place serving as a one-way northbound access. " With a new Fuller bridge, North Cam- pus buses will no longer have to cross the bridge one bus at a time. " The left turn from Fuller onto Glen will be eliminated. " The Wall St. and Fuller intersection'. will be smoothed out, with one bridge donnecting to Maiden Lane and another biidge leading to the new hospital. " Fuller will become a divided, four- lane road between Wall St. and the Huron River. " A center left-turn lane will be added to Huron St. between Glen and Washtenaw. LANDSyAPE 'architecture Prof. Peter Pollack, whose firm will be lan- dscaping the project, said the historic stone wall along Fuller and Wall Streets will be saved and rebuilt near the original site. Construction will also include a bicycle path, 10-foot sidewalks, and a proposed walkway/bicycle path through Fuller Park. The bridge will provide pedestrian access to the new hospital. The Fuller-Glen project is the result of over a decade of environmental im- pact studies and community input, Pollack said. The original plan called' for a huge concrete wall between the hospital site and Fuller Park, and the road would have sliced the park in two, Pollack said. i I Vol. XCII, No. 13 Thursday, September 24, 1981 The Michigan Daily is edited and managed by students at The University of Michigan.
