About 90 University employees gathered at the Regents Plaza rally yesterday shortly before the Regents were scheduled to meet, and listened to their fellow workers urge themtounionize to fight the administration. THE FOCUS of the demonstration was a University decision last July to hold the salaries of non-unionized staff members-mainly secretaries and lower-level ad- ministrators-at last year's rate, while giving some professors pay raises." Administrators had defended the pay policy on the grounds See STAFF, Page 3 From AP and UPI. JERUSALEM - The Israeli gov- ernment said yesterday it would pull back its troops from west Beirut when the Lebanese army was ready to take control. But the Cabinet communique set no timetable for the troops' depar- ture from the Lebanese capital, and the unanimous decision ap- peared to reject U.S. demands for an immediate Israeli withdrawal. THE STATEMENT said the Israelis went into west Beirut after Lebanese President-elect Bashir Gemayel was assassinated because of the danger of "violence, bloodshed and chaos." It said "the government will in- struct the Israel Defense Forces to evacuate these positions" in west Beirut "when the Lebanese army is ready to take control of them, in coordination with the Israel Defen- se Forces, in order to ensure public order and security." In Rome, PLO Chairman Yassar Arafat called for the return of the three nation peacekeeping force to Lebanon because of Israeli moves 6 ii shc into west Beirut (see story, Page 5). THE ISRAELI military com- mand announced earlier that Israeli forces were 'in control of all key points in Beirut" yesterday af- ter a two-day operation. Gemayel was a Christian militia leader whose election by the Lebanese Parliament last month was boycotted by most Moslem deputies. Gemayel's militia had received aid from Israel and the Begin government had hoped his election would lead to a peace treaty between Lebanon and Israel. The Israeli surge, into west Beirut sparked criticism that some Israeli Cabinet members were not consulted, according to Israeli press reports. The opposition Labor Party urged the Cabinet di- ssenters to speak out in the special meeting called to consider the Lebanese situation. MEANWHILE, Lebanese Prime Minister Chefik Wazzan appealed to President Reagan to help save his capital, and President Elias --dium : - . ' .

Res. students fight to save school) By JIM SPARKS After attending a rally that just barely got off the ground, about 40 supporters of the School of Natural Resources marched into yesterday's Regents' meeting and defended their school with speeches and loud applause. The school currently is facing a budget review that could result in massive money cutbacks, or, in the most drastic scenario, the school's wholesale elimination. "WHEN OUR budget is cut, in a way, so is yours," said Karen Herr, a junior in the school. She explained that a cut in the study of natural resources will also hurt everyone's chance to appreciate those resources. The students, who looked somewhat aimless when the rally began at 3:30 p.m. in front of the cube, grew enthusiastic when they spoke to the Regents. "A great School of Natural Resources is as vital to the University as any other school or program," said Dominick Dell Sala, a graduate student in the school. SALA, A new student at the University, said "I am forced to acclimate to new surroundings, and it appears that at the same time those surroundings may be pulled from under my feet." The sparse attendance at the rally outside was in sharp con- trast to last April's Regents' meeting, when the Michigan Union's Anderson Room was packed with people protesting the administration's now famous "Five-year plan." By the time Jonathon Weiland, a SNR graduate, jumped on a bench to speak to "the multitude out there," the number had swelled from 25 to 40, but he had to smile at phrases like "presen- ce equals power," in his prepared speech. WEILAND said that last April "the Regents were surprised, baffled and confused ... they had nothing to do but listen. "So get involved, because if you're not involved, you might as well transfer to LSA now," Weiland said. Nancy Yakes, who just received her master's degree from the school, explained that the rally, with no protest signs or public address system, "was pretty much put together over the last couple days." Most people in the school don't, think it will be closed now, Yakes said, adding that "they feel it will be treated well by the Univer- sity." See NAT.

See ISRAEL, Page 5 ighte ns alcohol restrictions By ROB FRANK Students should think twice before trying to smuggle liquor into Michigan Stadium for the Wolverines next home game. Stadium officials have proclaimed a new crack down on fans who prefer to watch the Wolverines with a six-pack or a flask. Guards watching the entrance, gates will make life tougher for spectators to get alcohol into the Stadium. FOR ONE THING, fans will no longer be allowed to bring coolers or large parcels into the Stadium, said Will Perry, the assistant director of University athletics. Perry said the new policy will solve a long- standing problem of coolers blocking the aisles, requiring other fans to climb over the parcels when walking to their seats. "One of the biggest problems we have is people not being able to get to their seats because the aisles are blocked," said Perry yesterday. "One han- dicapped woman counted 21 people in the aisle last week and we just can't have that." There are more complaints about coolers and blocked aisles in the alumni and local spectator sec- tions than in the student seats, said Perry. "I think the students do a hell of a job," he added. THE RESTRICTIONS on coolers will make it much easier for guards to spot alcohol before it gets into the stadium, Perry said. Before the new rules went into effect, it was virtually impossible to catch liquor coming into the grounds because there were far too many coolers and parcels to search, he poin- ted out. "Though we don't want alcohol in (the stadium), we can't search everyone who comes ineither," he said. "But we are trying to crack down on (alcohol) being brought in." Fans who become too zealous in their drinking have been a perennial problem at football games, according to stadium officials. "PEOPLE GO to kickoff parties the night before the game, tailgate parties before the game, and bring drinks into the game," said one Red Cross volunteer who works at the stadium. "By halftime, they're blitzed and pose potential problems." Though at last week's home game against Wisconsin only one fan required medical attention after drinking too much, several others were referred to police to sleep off their merry-making. Dominick Dell Sala, a graduate student in the School of Natural Resources, urges the Regents at their meeting yesterday to avoid budget cuts in the school, one of the three presently under review. Scramble on for math classes Army to strengthen role of Green Berets By JERRY ALIOTTA The mathematics department is having a little trouble with its figures these days. An increase in the number of students wanting to take math courses coupled with a shortage of faculty members has caused chaos in the department recen- tly. The waitlist for math classes swelled to about 300 last week, as students hoping to get overrides formed 90-foot lines outside the department's office doors. Little relief for students is in sight. "I really feel sympathy for students who want math classes, but our hands are tied and there's not much we can do," said Leon Zukowski, an administrative associate in the math department. THE SCRAMBLE for math classes has been caused in part by the rapid growth in the number of students majoring in engineering and computer sciences, according to Prof. Frederick Gehring, chairman of the math department. But along with more students wanting to take math, fewer professors and teaching assistants are available to teach it. "We just don't have enough TODAY- Make war, not love Love to a Woman," should have titled his " has I say, not as I do." The 30-yea rlawyer has been ordered to stand trial 'I really feel sympathy for students who want math classes, but our hands are tied and there's not much we can do.' -Leon Zukowski Dept. of Mathematics people to teach the classes," Gehring admitted. The department's faculty has been reduced in recent years due to cutbacks and retirement, Gehring said, adding that this year, the department is asking the University for permission to hire "six or seven" more professors. Teaching assistants are also in short supply, largely because the University's new English proficiency test for TAs has discouraged many foreign graduate students from applying for the job, Gehring said. "THEY WERE worried about the test and most were scared off," Gehring said. The department cannot admit as many students as it wants into sections taught by TAs because an. agreement with the Graduate Employees Organization-the TAs bargaining agent-limits such classes to 30 students each, Gehring added. Although the department has rarely turned away students in the past, it may have to this year, some professors predicted. "We have never closed courses in the past years, but for the first time it looks as though we might have to," said Prof. James Wendel, an associate depar- tment chairman. LINES OF students waiting for overrides are creating confusion at the math department's Angell Hall offices. The department's office, already under- staffed because of the University's recently-declared hiring freeze, was forced to shut down briefly last See STUDENT, Page 9 FORT BRAGG, N.C. (AP) -- The Army has decided to establish a "major command" for military special operations,da move aimed at improving the Green Berets' capability to wage counter-insurg- cy, guerrillas, sabotage, and other kinds of unconventional warfare, sources say. Theedecision follows a quiet but in- tensive lobbying drive by conser- vative military strategists inside and outside the administration for improved U.S. forces to respond to so-called "low intensity" conflicts, like the current fighting in Central America. MILITARY sources, who asked not to be identified, said the anoun- cement of the command and details about exactly which units will be in- volved is expected soon. Sources also say an active debate is continuing inside the Pentagon about placing special operation for- ces from the Air Force and possibly other branches of the armed ser- vices into a joint command. The Pentagon refused comment on the report. Advocates of unconventional war- fare say the creation of a central headquarters for special operations with a tighter chain of command and control would be the most important step yet toward revitalizing those forces, which have been declined since the Vietnam War.
