The Michigan Daily-Thursday, October 30, 1980-Page 7 Campaign, drawing to * a close for Carter, Reagan CLEVELAND (AP)-President Carter and Ronald Reagan took up their campaign debate at a distance yesterday, back among the voters in parallel quests for the support of major swing states that will make one of them a winner on Election Day. In the brief balance of their long White House contest, the two will be concentrating on much the same territory: the battleground states which carry the bulk of the electoral votes. CARTER, IN PITTSBURGH, forecast a top-to- bottom victory for the Democratic ticket next Tuesday, and accused Reagan of misstating his own positions in the debate. Reagan, in Houston, said Carter "refused to defend his record, he couldn't defend it, so he changed the subject." He said Carter economic policies "are leading us into the dark ages." Both major party candidates claimed satisfac- tion and campaign gains out of their nationally broadcast debate in Cleveland Tuesday night. An Associated Press poll indicated that Reagan and Carter gained just about equally in the eyes of the registered voters who viewed the 90-minute confrontation-their first and last. THE SURVEY ALSO said that the television audience leaned Reagan's way before the debate began. In the judgment of those viewers, Reagan did the better job as'a debater; 46 percent saw it that way, 34 percent said Carter did best. But neither Reagan nor Carter carved significantly into the support of the other. The debate, it appeared, firmed opinions about the two candidates, but did not markedly change them. Their post-debate gains came largely among people who had been undecided, with a handful of registered voters who had sided with independent John Anderson switching to one of the major party contenders. Anderson, campaigning in Philadelphia, said the debate created the perception that the con- test is now a two-man affair, between Carter and Reagan. Anderson, who didn't make the Cleveland debate team, has staked his third-man campaign against exactly'that view. He said he would keep "trying very hard to remedy that," and insisted that he isn't out of the running. REAGAN SAID THE debate left his campaign "in very good shape." He said he wished it could have lasted another 90 minutes, so that he could have continued to' challenge Carter on "the falsehoods that have been told numerous times by the whole Carter campaign." Reagan, who had said he wanted to focus in the closing days of the campaign on Carter's "economic record of misery and despair," let pass several opportunities to say how he could do better than Carter. Reagan spent much of the 90-minute debate seeking to portray himself as a man of peace to offset the warmonger image that Carter has tried to tag him with. He wanted to come across as presidential, and he may well have suc- ceeded. CARTER WAS CAMPAIGNING in Pittsburgh, Rochester, N.Y., Newark, then Philadelphia. Pennsylvania and New Jersey are on the list of big, tossup states, crucial to the outcome of next Tuesday's election. Reagan will be working in both before the week is out. The Republican nominee went straight Texas, another swing state, to campaign Houston, Ft. Worth and Dallas.

At issue are 617 million pages dealing with state secrets of war, peace, -diplomacy, arms control, espionage, trade negotiations, and other gover- nirnent activities in the area of national security. THE _GAO, a government watchdog agency, cited the $11 million it costs each year to pay people employed solely to review the old papers. But its proposal drew criticism from the National Archives, storehouse of old government records, and from Steven Garfinkel; director of the Information Security Oversight Office. He called the proposal "drastic," "insupportable," "one-dimensional" and "illogical." The GAO recommended abandoning the systematic review of classified documents put into effect by an executive order signed by President Carter in 1978. CARTER DIRECTED agencies to look at all classified documents as they become 20 years old and declassify those that can be disclosed without harm to the government. Previously, documents were not reviewed until they were 30 years old. The GAO said more than 155 agencies hold 617 million pages of documents requiring review. The agencies include the FBI, CIA, Arms Control and Disarmament Agen- cy, U.S. Information Agency, and the departments of State, Justice, Com- merce and Defense. Also on the list are many agencies no longer in existence. Instead of systematically reviewing all classified papers, the GAO recom- mended that the government examine only those requested or likely to be requested by members of the public, chiefly historians. It estimated that 90 percent of the declassified papers are of no interest to historians or the public.

(Continued from Page 1) MSA member Jon Feiger,. who also helped organize the rally, said it is im- portant for students to realize the potential impact of the Tisch tax cut proposal. "It's not just your tax dollars at stake. It's your education," Feiger said, adding that it might "take education 30 years to recover from Tisch." Feiger said that MSA would continue to fight the proposal through campus leafletting, postering, and a "Get Out to Vote" drive on election day. "IT'S IMPORTANT that students get out to vote," Feiger said, "and to vote against Tisch." Solomon said that LSA-SG will also continue to wage battle against the proposed tax cut, by also participating in the effort to increase student turnout at the polls. "We're going to help on Nov. 4," Solomon said. "People are going to be out at the polls to campaign against Tisch." Feiger and Solormon said students will go door-to-door in University dor- ms and off-campus housing in an effort to increase student voter turnout. RAY BRACE, chairman ofthe Ann Arbor Libertarian League, however, said that although his group strongly supports the proposaLit will make little. effort to campaign because, in Ann Ar- bor, the tax cut proposal is "a lost cause." "We're not doing anything actively," Brace said. "There's so much Univer- sity money going to combat Tisch" that campaigning in support would not be, productive. The Pan-Hellenic Association, the group that coordinates sororities, is providing information on the proposal to its members, but will not take an of- ficial position, according to its president, Kathy Kelly. "We're not doing anything other than consciousness awareness," Kelly said, adding that speakers have explained the proposal at meetings of the Pan- Hellenic Association. Kelly said that her organization is providing infor mation "just so everyone knows the ramifications of the proposal-pro and con." MSA MEMBER Reid Butler said he is also planning on canvassing Greek houses in an effort to educate fraternity members about the Tisch proposal. A small, random sampling of studen- ts on the Diag yesterday indicated that although students overwhelmingly op- pose the Tisch proposal, few plan to ac- tively campaign against it. Music School junior Dan Meyers, however, said he spoke in opposition to the proposal at a rally in his hometown of Manistee, Michigan. He said that the proposal's impact on local high schools is the major concern of his hometown. ALL THE KING'S MEN TONIGHT at 7:00 & 9:00 LORCH Based on Robert Penn Warren's novel.

"Can we allow higher education in Michigan to go down the proverbial drain of Shiawassie drain Com- missioner Robert Tisch?" Breakstone asked the crowd to a rousing chorus of ""No!" "We're talking about the survival of the University," Breakstone said, calling Proposal D "the Tisch Holocaust." MSA member Jon Feiger, who helped ft tax cut organize the rally with LSA Student Government President Dan Solomon, said he hoped the rally would serve to mobilize student opposition to the proposal.
