01 Iiage 8-Saturday, April 4, 1981-The Michigan Daily Reagan develops fever; Brady no longer critical ON -WASHINGTON (AP)-President Reagan developed a fever which hit 102 degrees yesterday, a "limited setback" which poses a remote potential for pneumonia, but the chief executive still is likely to be sent home to the White House next week, his chest surgeon said. Other doctors concurred with Dr. Benjamin Aaron that the temperature was a normal post-operative occurren- ce. Meanwhile, the president got out of his bed for the second straight day and conferred with two senior Cabinet members about to leave on foreign trips. AARON SAID at a midafternoon briefing that the 102-degree fever in- dicated that part of the president's left lung was not functioning as it should be. Ile called the development a "limited setback," adding that there is no evidence that infection has set in. Fevers are common after major chest or lung surgery, the physician said. Meanwhile, the FBI confirmed that the bullets that struck Reagan, White House press secretary James Brady, and two others in the assassination at- tempt on Monday were "devastators," designed to explode on impact. Ap- parently, the slug which hit Reagan-thought to have been a ricochet off the presidential limousine-did not fragment, but the one which struck Brady did break up in- to at least four pieces. Doctors reported that Brady, asked by his physician how he was feeling yesterday, responded, "I'm feeling fine." He was taken off the critical list, although he remains in intensive care. THE PRESIDENT received Secretary of State Alexander Haig and Defense Secretary Caspar Weinberger, who reportedly got embroiled in an argument in the White House situation room within hours after the president was shot. The New York Times reported yesterday that Weinberger became anguished after Monday's shooting when he spied Haig, momentarily ab- sent from the situation room while Reagan was undergoing surgery, speaking on television from the White House press room. Haig said military alert measures weren't necessary, but defense sources said Weinberger, while not ordering stiffer measures, told military com- manders to remain on their toes. THESE SOURCES, who asked not to be identified by name, said that when Haig returned to the situation room, Weinberger told him he should know about the instructions given to the commanders. Haig, according to sources, replied "You should check the Constitution, buddy." The sources were not sure what Haig was trying to convey, and they said Weinberger smiled, but made no verbal response. The Times said the secretary of defense told the secretary of state "I was told I was in charge," apparently referring to the "national command authority." Under that chain of com- mand, the defense secretary has power over the armed forces in emergency situations in the absence of the president and vice president. Speakes said the White House stood by earlier denials that no disagreement took place and refused to comment on the quotations.

Report says students learn more in private high schools 6 WASHINGTON (AP) - A major new study concludes that students learn more in private high schools than in public high schools. Sociologist James Coleman also said he research indicates that although private schools enroll fewer minority students, their classrooms are less segregated than public school classrooms. The report was paid for by the federal government as part of a larger study of INDIVIDUAL THEATRES 5th Ave at Lberty 761-9700 SUBTITLED Natassia "Tess" Kinski "A TRULY SEXY MOVIE!" - Bruce Williamson.PLAYBOY Fri, Mon-7:15, :0 Sat, Sun-1:35, 3:25, 5:25,7:15, 9:05 $2.00ti1600 YOU DEMANDED IT!!

It is based on surveys and tests given to 58,728 high school seniors and sophomores. THE FINDINGS could influence the debate over whether Congress should give tuition tax credits to parents who send their children to private schools. President Reagan also promised during last year's campaign to seek such aid, and Coleman also has supported tuition tax credits. An official of the National Education Association sharply criticized the report and challenged Coleman's fin- dings. Sharon Robinson, the NEA's director of instruction and professional development, said private schools can choose to admit students who are motivated to learn while public schools by law must be open to all. Coleman, a University of Chicago professor, said evidence shows "that private schools do produce better cognitive outcomes than public schools. When family background factors that predict achievement are controlled, students in both Catholic and other private schools are shown to achieve at a higher level than students in public schools." ABOUT 1.4 MILLION, or 10 percent of the nation's 14.9 million high school students, attend private schools, in- cluding 900,000 in Catholic classrooms. Coleman said Catholic schools in par- ticular are doing a good job in educating students from different family income levels. "The evidence is strong that the Catholic schools function much closer to the American ideal of the 'common school,' educating children from dif- ferent backgrounds alike, than do the public schools," he said. HE ACKNOWLEDGED his results are "subject to a caveat: Despite ex- tensive statistical controls on parental background, there may very well be other unmeasured factors in the self- selection into the private sector that are associated with high achievement." Scott D. Thomson, executive director of the National Association of Secon- dary School Principals, said yesterday, "The most talented public school student can compete successfully with* even the most selective private school student." Coleman said that opposition to tuition tax credits "is frequently based on the assumption that the private schools function as a means for whites to escape the racial integration that has been imposed in the public sector." But, he said his evidence suggests that giving families $1,000 in a tax rebate or other form would decrease segregation "primarily through the shifts of minorities - especiallyG Hispanics and higher-income blacks - into the Catholic schools." q 'e 4 Ulrich' $Annual Inventory Sae April 4th thru April 11th Involving every article in our store except textbooks With special prices on calculators NO GIMMICKS-Just Good Old Fashioned Bargains.
