Iraqi nuclear center escapes Iranian attack BAGHDAD, Iraq (AP)-Iranian warplanes attacked Baghdad's nuclear research center yesterday in a renewal of the deadly air war against the Iraqi capital, but the atomic reactor was not damaged, the French Embassy repor- ted. Pandemonium gripped the surroun- ding neighborhood in the aftermath of the raid on the power plant. Soldiers dashed about and militiamen sought to control traffic as ambulances raced to and fro, carrying off the victims. The intense heat of the blaze turned the area nearby into an oven. A huge cloud of black smoke hung over the plant. The United States and the Soviet Union stepped up international peace efforts, and the head of an Islamic peace mission said he was hopeful for an end of the war. BUT IN TEHRAN Iranian revolutionary leader Ayatollah Ruhollah Khomeini defiantly rejected calls for a cease-fire, saying Iran "will not compromise" and will not be satisfied until the Iraqis are driven from Iranian soil. The Iraqi invasion force continued to encounter tough resistance in Iran's embattled Khuzestan province. Iraqi troops. were locked in battle with Iranian defenders six miles south of the provincial capital of Ahwaz, AP correspondent Jeffrey Ulbrich reported from the scene. Ahwaz, five miles in- side Iran, is believed to be a key target of the Iraqi offensive. U.S. SECRETARY of State Edmund Muskie met with Iraq's foreign minister, Saddoun Hammadi at the United Nations in New York to express American concern over the hostilities. Muskie said afterward he was told Iraw had "limited objectives" in the war. The Iraqis have said they want the Iranians to renounce sovereignty over part of the Shatt al-Arab and three Per- sian Gulf islands. In Moscow, Soviet President Leonid Brezhnev, in his first public comments on the war, called on Iran and Iraq to begin direct peace negotiations. IRAQI PRESIDENT Saddam Hussein has said Iraq will abide by the U.N. Security Council's call for a cease- fire if Iran does. But Khomeini, in a fiery address on Tehran Radio, rejec- ted the offer. "We will not compromise with him (Hussein). He is an infidel, a person who is corrupt, a perpetrator of corrup- tion," said Khomeini, a clergyman of the Shiite Moslems, a rival sect of Hussein's Sunnis. In another development, the U.S. Defense Department announced it was sending four Airborne Warning and Control System aircraft to patrol the skies over Saudi Arabia, at the Saudis' request. THE SOPHISTICATED, radar- packed planes would be able to give early warning of any air attack against Saudi oil fields or on oil traffic in the Persian Gulf. Iranian officials have made threats of expanding the war if other Arab nations help Iraq.

By STEVE HOOK Are you a graduate student of the Protestant faith whose loyalty to the United States and the University of Michigan is unquestioned? If you are, or if you fit into one of several other categories, the Univer- sity's Office of Financial Aid has a special fund set aside for your borrowing needs,. THEY ARE KNOWN as "restricted funds:" Alumni donations that are reserved for student loans-and are deliberately reserved for students who fall into specific categories. The terms are set by, the contributing. alumni. Al Hermsen, assistant director of the financial aid office, explained the restricted fund system thisway: You are an undergraduate, majoring in political science and active on the Michigan Student Assembly. You graduate. You begin making money, and you want to make a contribution to the University. But you do not want your con- tribution to fall into just anybody's hands-you want to specifically aid present-day political science studen- ts-and those who are active on MSA. Hence, restricted funds. NOT ONLY CAN donors dictate who shall have access to these funds, they can specify whether the loans will be short or long term, and how much can be borrowed. They can even set the in- terest rates. Hermsen explained that the restric- ted funds help the University distribute its available financial aid resources. By matching qualified students with available restricted funds, the demand for other funds decreases. "'There are a million situations in which these funds are made available," he said. "Some people have positive experiences with foreign students while on campus, and want to help foreign students. Others wish to set aside funds for students from their hometowns, or from their fraternities and sororities. Whatever, they can set aside their own categories." Most contributions. of this kind sim- ply go to the University colleges the alumni graduated from-a vast majority of restricted funds are reserved simply for LSA, engineering, law, and business school students-without further stipulations. See 'U,' Page 5 Surprise! I A 2 landlord have trouble finding tenants By JOYCE'I F~RIEDEhN I The bulletin board at the University's Off=Campus Housing Office is a resource often used by students looking for housing in Ann Arbor. But the students who went into the office at 1011 Student Activities Building last week expecting to see the usual small collection of advertisements for expensive, far-away houses and apartments came across a real surprise. Last week, the office board was plastered with ad- vertisements from area rental agencies-Wilson/ White, Old Town, McKineley Rentals, and others-for housing close to campus. And the ads are enticing, containing lines such as "first month's rent free" and "Rent this apartment and get a $200 gift certificate good at Ulrich's Book Store."' Off-Campus Housing Director Jo Williams cited one possible reason for the glut of. apartments for rent. "My guess is that rents reached a high level in a year when the economy is down and students can't af- ford it any more, so they're doubling up," said Williams. SHE ADDED THAT declining enrollment was definitely not a factor. "We don't have exact figures. yet, but the Admissions Office says the enrollment for this term will be approximately the same as last year's," she said. McKinely Rentals Director of Campus of Rentals Jan Austin agreed that finding tenants was a problem. "Until about a week ago, we had plenty of everything available; we're just now beginning to get rid of our efficiency apartments," she said. Austin said McKinely, which owns approximately 2,000 rental units in Ann Arbor, is using several tac- tics to attract tenants. "We're offering lower rents and shorter-term leases . . . we're even offering the first month's rent free in some cases," she said. Dave Williams, manager of Old Town Realty, agreed that more people were doubling up than usual, and added, "We've been having some trouble getting things rented this year. It's the first time I can remember this much trouble." ALTHOUGH SEVERAL AGENCIES are having problems finding tenants, a few spokespersons said their comanies had no trouble renting out houses and apartments. "We've had no trouble at all," said an employee of. Campus Rentals who identified herself only as Jane. Suzanne Felicks, rental manager at Maize and Blue Rentals, which owns 167 apartments in the city, agreed. "With us, everything is all rented out," she said. -"The only rental problems we had were with a few people who had signed leases, earlier in the year, " but told us during the summer they changed their minds. But we rented all those out last week." One University student said he found more apar- tments available close to campus this year than last because more people are willing to move farther away. "I KNOW LOTS OF people in frats and apartments who could more readily afford cars than before, and they are willing to move away from campus," said LSA junior Dave Deaver. Deaver cited the Villge Green and Glencoe complexes as popular, but distant, apartments for students See LANDLORDS, Page 5 Carter won't show up at Peace Corps event Proffavors program cuts, smaller 'U' By DAVE MEYER. After recent speculation and reports that President Carter might be coming to town for the 20th Anhiversary of thePeace Corps this month final word came yesterday that he won't be on hand for the celebration. Francis Pegues, a spokeswoman at the Carter-Mondale headquarters in Detroit, said neither the president nor Secretary of State Edmund Muskie-who has also been men- oned as a celebration participant-will attend the event to take place at the Michigan Union on Oct.13 and 14. HOWEVER, RICK SLINE, director of Student Organizations, Activities and Projects, said that he had been assured Muskie would attend. "We were told if it wasn't Car- ter . . . it would be Muskie," Sline said.,.Bob Anderson, Washtenaw County coordinator for the Carter-Mondale cam- Siren test F YOU HAPPEN to hear the whine of sirens today, it's probably not the Ann Arbor Fire Department rushing to extinguish a fire in your home, but the Police Department running its monthly siren test.

Janice Settle, a spokeswoman for the State Department, refused to confirm or deny the report that Muskie will appear here. "That trip has not been announced yet," Settle said. The ceremony will celebrate the night in 1960 at the University, when John Kennedy, then a presidential can- didate, proposed the creation of a voluntary, international service organization. To date, Sargeant Shriver, the Peace Corps' first director, and Kennedy's brother-in-law, Lillian Carter, the mother of President Carter and a former Peace Corps volunteers, and former Senator Muriel Humphrey have announced plans to attend, said Pegues and Jeff Lebow, University coordinator for the event. Lebow added that Peace Corps recruiters will also be on campus during the activities. By MAURA CARRY In response to University President Harold Shapiro's recent concern with creating a "smaller University," Prof. James Miller suggested Monday con- centrating the school's resources on its strong programs as a means of reaching that goal. Miller, of the Center for Studies in Higher Education, said that the University must make a choice bet- ween spreading its limited resources throughout all its departments, or con- centrating those resources in its strong areas and reducing the size and number of programs. "WE MUST MAINTAIN the strengths of the University if we want to attract funds and resources," he said. In presenting his views to the Senate Advisory Committee on University Af- fairs, Miller said, "Its very easy to let strength erode." He added that in order to attract students, faculty, and funds, the University must show its strengths. Miller said that in order to retain national prominence for the University, certain areas would have to be phased down or out in favor of others.

What if he had just said "ouch!" and "gosh darnit!," and then shrugged the whole thing off when the apple clipped him? Well, we'd be without the law of gravity, of course, but we also might not have labelled the apple a special fruit. As it is though, there are all sorts of apply by-products, and everybody is trying to stretch the fruit's uses.

Dr. George Ralow left his car in a Budd Co. parking lot which, unbeknownst to Ralow, has a ban on foreign cars. "We're a supplier to the American auto in- dustry," explained plant manager Fred Glassford. "The American auto industry is really our bread and butter." The company also makes equipment for mass transit systems, and has had a tough time keeping up with foreign suburbia for a short, but eventual visit last week, is no dif- ferent. The moose, which sauntered out of the Vermont woods, snuck across the border to up-state New York, and mosied through the suburbs there. Opened-mouthed residents gaped in astonishment as the moose cut through their backyards, and neatly ducked under their clotheslines, but the children at the local school were delighted by the unexpected guest. The moose was soon ac- companied by an entourage of environmental and wildlife experts, who kept their fingers securely planted on the triggers of tranquilizer guns. The creature made several charges at the officials and then left his pursuers gasping in the remaining clouds of dust. When last spotted. the animal I G
