FIRST University administrators and student government leaders recently have been circulating the telephone number of the White House Comment Line in an ef- fort to stimulate staff and student input on President Reagan's budget cut proposals.' Morton Brown, chairman of the Senate Advisory Committee on University Affairs, said last week he was distributing the phone number to the deans and the heads of departments within thi University to en- courage them to participate in the federal budget process. He said that he was not, however, "leading the fight against the president's proposed budget cuts." HE SAID HE thought the Comment Line was par- n ut to Whi ticularly valuable oecause it allows a person to speak freely and to be accounted for individually. The Comment Line, (202) 456-7639, is a service which allows individuals to voice their opinions to White House staff members in Washington. According to Joan Decain, supervisor of Presiden- tial Inquiries, the calls on the line are taken by volun- teer aides. Decain refused to say whether the volun- teers need any special training or experience to ob- tain the position. SHE SAID each day a chart is prepared with columns for the most popular local, national, and in- ternational issues. She said the volunteers listen to each caller's opinion, then place a mark on the chart indicating the caller's position. The marks in each category are totaled at the end te House of each day, and a report of the results is sent to the president. She said the aides are not required to speak with the callers on the comment line; DECAIN ASSERTED that most callers approve of President Reagan's programs and policies. One volunteer aide said that the president had received support on the line even on controversial issues such as the president's economic program, El Salvador, and Saudi Arabia, She said that while President Reagan is pleased with the response on those issues, he is very concerned with the negative responses which are received. Last week, the Michigan Student Assembly ap- proved a plan to finance a poster campaign to en- courage students to call the Comment Line. Women gather for Detroit convention By ALISA RAY Thousands of women turned out this weekend to speak with corporate representatives and listen to women leaders in industry, academe, and the media at the first Women's Career Convention in Detroit. The massive convention, held in Renaissance Center on Detroit's water- front, was dotted with representatives of at least 50 area and national cor- porations, who met with convention- goers, many of whom were University students, about the future of jobs for women. "WE HAVE THE cream of the crop - company presidents and senior executives - telling individuals exactly what they're looking for," said conven- tion promoter Harriet Brumer. Many of the firms at the convention used the opportunity to recruit prospec- tive employees, Brumer said. "Of course, if impressions are made, there will be the option for future appoin- tments." A wide range of corporations were represented at the convention, Brumer said, including Burroughs, Coca-Cola, Ford Motor, Hewlett-Packard, and Rockwell International. Also present were officials from the University, Michigan State University, and Oakland University, who offered information on various academic programs offered at their schools. THE SCHEDULE of the convention, held Friday and yesterday, was made up of a number of hour-long seminars, panel discussions, and clinics focusing on development of job-hunting skills, resume writing, what to expect from an MBA degree, and how to dress for the business world. "We're covering every aspect of the working woman," Brumer said. A special focus of the convention was on women's careers in high-technology industries. This reflects -a shift in the traditional job market for women, Brumer said, adding, "Women can go into anything from glamour to robotics now and shouldn't be afraid of anything," Representatives from a number of area and national high-tech firms were present, including Sam Irwin, an Ann Arbor businessman and a member of the governor's special High Technology Task Force. Irwin's task force is charged with encouraging. high-tech firms to locate -in Michigan and has been coordinating an effort to build a $200-million robotics research center in Ann Arbor. Other seminars at the convention in- cluded women in health care, engineering, the news media, public relations and advertising, computers, and the future of cable TV. Jessica Savitch, an anchorwoman for NBC news, delivered the keynote ad- dress at the convention. And Kate Rand Lloyd, the editor of Working Woman magazine also spoke. to the crowd. Gargoyle f By JANICE DE MAGGIO One of the campus area's many public- ations has pulled off quite a coup: Its next issue, to be released tomorrow, in- cludes a submission by Playwright Ar- thur Miller. No, it isn't one of the local highbrow literary magazines. It is a periodical available not at newsstands, but from hawkers on the Diag. It offers off-beat humor, and has dreams of becoming the nation's next National Lampoon. IT'S NO JOKE. The Gargoyle is run- ning an authentic piece by Miller in tomorrow's edition. Miller wrote the article for the Gar- goyle in 1937, when he was a student at the University, and staff members say they have the copyright - in case Miller tries to deny it or threatens to sue. The Gargoyle has been around the University - off and on - since 1906. The sporadic history of the magazine is the result of fluctuating interests through the years, according to current staff members. THE LATEST revival occurred three years ago when recent University graduate Gil Borman stumbled across several issues from the humor magazine's heyday. At first, things were rough. Hundreds of unsold copies of the first several issues still clutter the Gargoyle office. "Do you want some firewood?" asks Karen Goodburne, art editor for the magazine. "Roll them (the extra issues) up and use them as logs.'' eatures Arthur Miller There used to be a stigma attached to working for the Gargoyle, according to senior editor Bill Smith. "PEOPLE WOULD say it was racist and sexist, and it was," explained artist Terry LaBan. When he started selling the magazine three years ago, people, were "hesitant. Our reputation was non-existent or not good," he says. Now, according to LaBan, the Gargoyle received criticism only "from people who like to criticize and would criticize anything anyway." Sales have, in fact, turned around for the last several issues. The biggest problem lately, according to Business Manager Susan Kling, is keeping enough quarters ready for change. The Gargoyle's last issue, which contained the "The Real Men of Michigan" calen- dar, sold out in two days. ACCORDING TO Kling, the key to the Gargoyle's recent success has not been an improvement in quality - it has always been good, she said. The reason for skyrocketing sales is a new marketing approach and better organization in general, she says. People are less likely to get lost in the shuffle than they were in the past because writers and artists are respon- sible for every phase of their work, right up to laying out and copyreading the articles. In fact, each staff member is listed as some type of an editor in tomorow's issue - from Misspelled Editor, to Econ Fire Black Humor Editor, to Editor in Charge of Pasting the Page Numbers on the Bottom of the Pages. ENTHUSIASM and "a certain level of energy" is what keeps the Gargoyle going, according to the staff. Ross Lipman, as LSA freshman, wrote two pages of the last, issue because the magazine ignores hierarchy. People can devote as much time as they want to the magazine, but no one is ever paid. The only reason the Gargoyle staff might have trouble perpetuating the magazine has to do with business not enthusiasm or creativity, according to Kling. There is a problem getting ad- vertisers. "Most local merchants are not openly offended (by the Gargoyle's sometimes no-holds-barred humor)," Kling. says. But "because of the economy, they say they have to budget several months in advance, and they don't have the money to advertise." Kling said the Gargoyle desperately needs some "business-types" to help keep the magazine running. "They don't even had to have a sense of humor," she added.

The union also won an automatic reopener of the contract in the event of a major upturn in Ford sales. The new agreement with Ford, which says it lost more than $1 billion in 1981, will be reviewed by the UAW executive board at a meeting today in Detroit before going to the union's Ford coun- cil, which is scheduled to meet in Chicago on Wednesday. THE COUNCIL will vote whether to recommend that Ford's 170,000 UAW- represented rank-and-file ratify the pact. Union officials say any such vote likely would be completed in about two weeks. Economic portions of the agreement were settled Thursday. Non-economic issues, such as plant closings and the company's practice of subcontracting work to non-union plants, were left for the final bargaining sessions on Friday and yesterday.
