HIGH SCHOOLERS CUT BACK
Study:
BY GREG DAVIS
Cigarette use among young people in
America is declining sharply, partly
due to increased awareness of adverse
health effects, according to the results
of a study released today by the
University's Institute for Social
Research.
The study, entitled "Monitoring the
Future," involved surveys of ap-
proximately 17,000 high school seniors
in which they were asked about their
smoking practices. ISR has been con-
ducting the nationwide survey every
year since 1975.
IN THE REPORT published by the
National Institute on Drug Abuse,
University researchers Lloyd Johnston,
Jerald Bachman, and Patrick O'Malley
say "perhaps the most dramatic
outh smoke less
change in substance abuse now taking
place among American young people is
the sharp drop in regular cigarette
smoking."
"The declining smoking rates
suggest that the public health cam-
paigns dealing with smoking may well.
have had an important impact on the
young," Johnston said.
"To most segments of society, this
(study) will come as good news, with
the exception of the tobacco industry,"
he said.
JOHNSTON SAID that peer pressure
by non-smokers and the willingness to
speak out against smoking has caused
more young people to avoid smoking.
The study says that 74 percent of the
high school seniors interviewed think
their friends would disapprove of
smoking - up from 55 percent polled in
1975.
Johnston said the survey is on-going
and that the seniors will be interviewed
in their post-high school years, at least
to age 24.
"WHILE WE think that this drop-off
in smoking among our newest young
adults is likely to have very favorable
health consequences for the nation 30 or
40 years hence," Johnston said,
"Clearly the problem has not gone
away. Particularly among those young
people not bound for college, cigarette
smoking remains disturbingly
widespread. Some 36 percent of them
reported daily smoking compared with
19 percent of the college-bound."
Johnston said ISR is also studying
other trends in drug use among high
school seniors.
Schaper reinstated to CSJ
The Michigan Student Assembly
voted last night to reinstate David
Schaper to a judgeship on the Cen-
tral Student Judiciary. Schaper, a
Law School student, resigned last
November from the Chief Justice
position on the panel due to what he
termed were "personal problems."
Schaper's reinstatement gives him a
place on the panel but does not
restore him to the Chief Justice
position.
Housing task force
initiated
The Assembly overwhelmingly
approved a motion to establish a
Housing Task Force to examine
problems encountered by University
students with both on-campus and
off-campus housing. College of
Engineering Representative Clark
Anderson, who proposed the motion,
volunteered to chair the task force.
The first Housing Task Force
meeting will be held Thursday at 6
p.m. inthe MSA chambers.

'The Statue of Liberty may be gleaming again for its 100th birthday on July 4,
1984, thanks to the efforts of former stock broker Bob Grace. He spent the
last 2% years trying to convince someone to underwrite the multimillion
dollar task of scrubbing the statue with a hydrochloric acid wash to remove
the green oxidation now covering the copper. President-elect Ronald
Reagan, among other politicians, has expressed interest in the project. The
photo above was taken in 1977.

Flasher suspect released
The man taken into custody
following an alleged incident of in-
decent exposure at the Un-
dergraduate Library has been iden-
tified and released, according to
Major Raymond Woodruff of the
Ann Arbor police.
The incident reportedly occurred
several days before the man was
taken to the police station for
questioning on Monday night.
University Security Director Walt
Stevens said the case has "some fac-
ts that are a little unusual and a little
different," including "identification
problems."
Police said the man told a female
University student that he was a
security guard investigating a.
prowler in another building. After
asking her to watch him from the
third floor of the UGLI, the man
went outside and took off his clothes
in front of the window.
Lawyers for The Michigan Daily
have filed a motion to dismiss
trespassing cliarges against two editors
who were arrested last October when
they attempted to gain entrance to a
University athletic board meeting that
was closed to the public.
Fifteenth District Court Judge
George Alexander yesterday allowed
the prosecution two weeks to submit a
written response to the defense motion.
He scheduled pre-trial examination
oral arguments for February 3.
Daily Editor-in-Chief Mark Parrent
and Opinion Page Editor Joshua Peck
were arrested last October 29 after they
refused to leave Crisler Arena when or-
dered to do so by police. Parrent, Peck,
and other Daily staff members were
trying to gain entrance to a room in
Crisler where the athletic board was
meeting.
The motion argues that Parrent and
Peck were not trespassing because they
had a right to attend the meeting under
provisions of Michigan Open Meetings
II
S-
Act. The University, which is pressing
the charges, claims the athletic board
meeting does not fall under the
provisions of the act.
