Colorful anti-passing-up posters featuring campus leaders should ap- pear in dorms by Thursday, following delays caused by the illness'of a poster designer and lack of communication with SPUN members, a spokeswoman for the University's Office for Student Services said yesterday. ELIZABETH Mitchell-Yellin, OSS associate in charge of the poster cam- paign, said student leaders from cam- pus government to fraternity and sorority presidents to dormitory resident advisers will receive infor- ' tion about the campaign to stop passing up. "'We talked to them (RAs and RDs) verbally this summer" about the passing up problem, Mitchell-Yellin said. "We want to start getting in- coming students educated." "Passing up" is a term adopted in recent years to describe the hoisting of unwilling and usually female spec- tators over the crowd at Michigan Stadium until thiey reach the top row of seats, where they are set down or drop- ped. Several victims have suffered serious injury from the practice, and practically all victims have reported bruises and general shock, SPUN mem- See UNIVERSITY, Page 7 O passing seM s imited to Bi Ten, midwest By SARA ANSPACH Officials at many universities have never heard of the practice of passing up, but most of those who have say they wish they weren't quite so familiar with the custom of grabbing a spectator and passing her up through the bleachers during a football game. No one knows when or where the practice started,. but according to a Daily survey of all the Big Ten schools and various other universities around the country, the custom appears to be concentrated in the midwest. ALTHOUGH AT LEAST two women have sustained serious injuries while being passed up in Michigan Stadium, other 'srchools reported only minor in- juries resulting from' the practice. Many officials say the passing up in- cidents invariably occur in the student sections of stadiums, during boring moments in the game and after studen- ts have been drinking. % "We've had a problem in the past with body passing," said Detective Karen Hanson from the University of Wisconsin's campus police department. She said last year the administration sent a letter about the hazards of the practice to students in dormitories, See PASSING UP, Page 7 Khomeini lists four release conditions TURKISH SOLDIERS barricade the streets in the aftermath of the military coup in Turkey Thursday night New Turkish leaders sai they'll remain pro-West From AP and UPI ANKARA, Turkey-Turkey's new military rulers pro- claimed yesterday that the strategic NATO country would maintain a pro-Western foreign policy. They said they seized power because Turkish politicians failed to cope with rising terrorist violence and crushing economic problems. The generals took control in a swift and bloodless pre- dawn coup that sent tanks, armored personnel carriers, and jeeps sweeping through this secular Moslem nation's major cities. No casualties werereported in the coup, and the new rulers appeared firmly in control by last night. PRIME MINISTER Suleyman Demirel and other political leaders were put under house arrest, nationwide martial law was imposed, the constitution abolished, and all political ac- tivity suspended. It was the third such military coup in 20 years and in Washington, where the news first broke, the State Depar- tment said was not a surprise. Officials said they expected a military move in view of Turkey's worsening economic pnd political problems but denied allegations that President Car- ter or anyone else had been tipped in advance. The Soviet news agency Tass said it was "noteworthy that the first report of the coup came from the U.S. State Depar- tment" in Washington. The point was also made by the Fren- ch newspaper Le Monde which said: "That fact alone leads one to believe that the United States did not discourage the perpetrators of this operation. ." But State Department spokesman John Trattner said the United States was advised of the coup one hour and 15 minutes before it was officially announced. The word was passed by an officer of the Turkish general staff to the American ambassador's senior military adviser in an early morning telephone call yesterday. GEN. KENAN EVREN, 62, told his 43 million co the army stepped in because the politicians had fai the- sick economy or stamp out the left-versus terrorism that has claimed more than 5,000 victir the past two years.

In what appeared to be one of the most significant developments in the hostage crisis since it began 314 days ago, Khomeini broke his long silence on the issue with a list of four demands he said the United States must meet to win the hostages' release.

He said he had passed on these direc- tives to his parliament "so they can decide on any course of action in the in- terest of the nation." Meanwhile, Iran rushed more troops to its battle-torn border with Iraq and called upon all of. its citizens to donate medical and other supplies to the army, which reportedly suffered heavy losses in the latest frontier fighting. Iranian radio reports, monitored in Kuwait, said army reinforcements were being sent to the southwestern frontier with Iraq, which claimed Thur- sday to have captured a 50-square-mile slice of territory whose ownership the two countries have disputed for years. In other developments, Iranian exile factions are planning to form an exile government with the shah's son, Crown Prince Reza Cyrus Pahlavi, as the figurehead monarch, the Atlanta Jour- nal and Constitution reported in com- bined Saturday editions. In a copyright story from Washington, the newspapers quoted unidentified sources in Paris, London, and Washington as saying exiled Iranians have been meeting in Paris to plan a coup d'etat to be launched within a few months. Pahlavi's father, Shah Mohammad Reza Pahlavi, was ousted in January 1979 by Moslem revolutionaries, led by the Ayatollah. The shah died in July in Egypt. ......:.:... .... ......r.n... ..5. .:..:.....:a . :. rfi ..: . ... ......... .... ............. ..... . . :t .> . r .. .. :. . :: ..: :: _.. .. _ t . ..t .? . ?r s .. >''x.

The method, which was tried for the first time this year, has led to problems because "too many people aren't at the same address," Renfrew said. "The tickets are supposed to come back to us, and ninety percent of the time they do," he ad- ded.
