Sen. Levin joins key
Democrats on
By STEVE HOOK
State Democrats continued their
pre-election campaigning blitz on cam-
pus yesterday with Sen. Carl Levin
highlighting a noon-hour rally on the
Diag.
'Nearly 200 students withstood the
cold, blustery weather to hear Levin
promote Proposal B, blast the Tisch
amendment, and recommend a
President Carter reelection. He also
voiced his support for Second District
Congressional hopeful Kathleen
O'Reilly, who is concentrating on
University students to defeat incum-.
bent Carl Pursell.
O'REILLY APPEAREAD briefly to
address the students. In addition, State
Rep. Perry Bullard (D-Ann Arbor) ser-
ved as emcee for the event. Betty Sch-
wartz, who is attempting to oust the
county prosecutor, also spoke. Finally,
Rep. Richard Fitzpatrick (D-Battle
Creek), the state's leader of the drive to
reduce the drinking age to 19 (Proposal
.B), gave a few words on behalf of his

Hit man
confesses,
violates
family
tradition
NEW YORK (UPI)-An admitted
mob hit man and one-time organized
crime boss in Los Angeles testified
yesterday there are 20 cities in the
United States, including Detroit,
with "family" links to the secret
organization known as La Cosa
Nostra.
The witness, James "Jimmy the
Weasel" Fratianno testified as a key
prosecution witness at the U.S.
District Court trial of Frank Funzi
Tieri of Brooklyn, the reputed boss
of the late Vito Genovese crime
family.
FRATIANNO, the first to break
the Mafia's code of silence since Joe
Valachi in the early 1960s, told a
hushed audience about joining La
Cosa Nostra, about the ritual
crucifix and gun on the table, the
drawing of blood and the kiss on the
cheek of the family members.
"You have to be Italian," he said.
"I was told when I joined, 'You come
in alive and go out dead: There's no
other wa."
Tieri, 76, frail and seriously ill, sat
in a wheelchair listening to the wor-
ds of an old friend turned gover-
nment informer whose information
led to his indictment.
Tieri, who like Fratianno is from
Naples, is the first person ever to be
tried on charges specifying he
headed an organized crime family.
Fratianno, also reported to be a
member of the Genovese crime
family, spoke casually about his
part in nine West Coast murders,
With the same apparent indifference
he told about the inside operations of
the syndicate.

pts to enter any other part of the
building would constitute a violation of
the trespass act. Parrent replied that
the group's only reason for being in the
building was to get into the meeting.
"We believe it's an open meeting and
that's what we're here for," he told of-
ficers.
Peck then headed toward a partition
that some meeting participants had en-
tered earlier. Police Sgt. Arthur
Hughes asked the group to leave.
"WE DON'T WANT to leave,"
Parrent replied.
"You don't want to leave, then we're
going to escort you out," Hughes said.
He then grabbed Parrent's arm and
began dragging him away. Parrent
asked whether he was under arrest. "I
am escorting you out." Hughes replied.
- After a few moments of debate,
Hughes placed Parrent under arrest.
Soon afterward, Peck was also placed
under arrest and led out of the building.
UNIVERSITY Vice President for
Student Services Henry Johnson, an ex
officio member of the board, appeared
on the scene just as Parrent was being
frisked and handcuffed by police of-
ficers.
After discussing the matter with
police and University officials who wit-
nessed the incident, Johnson said het
decided not to attend the meeting. He
opted, instead, to go to police headquar-
ters to post bail for Parrent and Peck,
he said. Bail was not required,
however.
"I came out of concern," Johnson
said. "I was almost arrested myself for
protesting when I was in graduate
school. I came to show a familiar face."
Johnson said the Daily staff members*
had "every right" to follow their con-
yictions, but he said they had to be
prepared to accept the consequences of
their actions.
MORE MONEY
NEW YORK (AP) - Higher
mortgage rates are causing some
prospectivejob candidates to insist on
larger salaries before they'll consider
relocating.
According to Bill Cantor, president of
the Cantor Concern, a New York
executive recruitment firm, the same
job hunters who would have taken a 15
percent increase to relocate six months
ago, are now asking 25 percent before
they'll move.

An actres in Tokyo making an anti-war movie meets and falls in love with

things-the filming of a film within a film; an actress playing an
actress; an anti-war film within an anti-war film. Resnais subtly mirrors
the many layered levels of our lives, skillfully placing his boxes within
boxes; his meaning within layers of meaning. (88 min.)

lecture.
A CAMPUS-WIDE survey was taken
by UAC, meanwhile, to see how studen-
ts felt about the upcoming Hoffman ap-
pearance. The results indicated that
University freshpersons and
sophomore were generally unaware as
to who Hoffman is.
"We realized that this might not have
been primarily student-oriented," Car-
ter said. "Then I got the question, 'Isn't
that what UAC's all about?"'
For Viewpoint, the Hoffman ap-
pearance was a must-win situation. "If
I brought him in and we lost $1,000,"
Carter continued, "that would have
been it for the entire year." The way it
stands now, Viewpoint may present a
lecture or two late next term.
"WE WERE NOT willing to stake
Viewpoint's future on a lecture of this
type," Attenborough replied. "I am not
pleased; it's a decision I did not want to
make," he added.
"It tears me apart," Carter said.
"This is the one lecture I wanted
students to see."
She emphasized that student input is
essential if Viewpoint is to survive. "I
have to save the committee and I can't
do it alone," she said. "Otherwise, it's
going to fold, there's no way around it.
"What I perceived Viewpoint as

being, is evidently not what students
perceive," Carter continued. "I don't
know, I really don't know. Maybe they
want comedians, magicians. But if it
comes down to that, I resign."

clusions.
Fitzpatrick cited other studies, such
as one by the National Council on
Alcohol Abuse, that claim there is no
relation between the drinking age and
alcohol-related accidents.
HE ADDED that Michigan Secretary
of State Richard Austin supports the
proposal because his studies have
failed to link the drinking age and traf-
fic accident rate.
Fitzpatrick, who is also the chairman
of the 19 is Fair Committee, stressed
that raising the drinking age has failed
to stop 19- and 20-year-olds from
drinking.
He said that overall there has been as
much alcohol of all sorts sold in 1979 as
in any other year. Last year, for in-
stance, he said the sale of kegs of beer
increased 550 percent, proving that
amount of alcohol consumed hasn'
changed, but rather the places 18- to 20-
year-olds drink it.
"Alcohol and beer industries haven't
given us (the 19 is Fair Committee) a
penny because sales haven't been af-
fected," Fitzpatrick said.
IN AN INTERVIEW before the
debate, Fitzpatrick said that Proposal
B still stands a good chance of passage,
despite the findings of recent polls. Fit-
zpatrick said none of the respondents in
the polls were college students, and that
if college students turn out in large
numbers on Nov. 4, the proposal will
pass., 4
But Fletcher said he doubted that
there is even strong support for the
proposal among 19- and 20-year-olds.
