Schmidt in vote of no-confidence 300 fight for their school From AP and UPI BONN, West Germany - Parliament ousted Chancelor Helmut Schmidt in a no-confidence vote yesterday and replaced him with Christian Democratic leader Helmut Kohl - the first conservative to rule West Ger- many in 13 years, Kohl, who lacks Schmidt's experien- ce in international affairs, said he would return the country to a "policy of the center" as practiced by Konrad Adenauer, West Germany's first chan- cellor, who brought the country into the Western alliance. "THE FUTURE of Germany is not to be found in extremes, but in the center," said the 52-year-old Roman Catholic, who is known as the Black Giant because of his 6-foot-4 height. Kohl also vowed to give toJ priority to fighting West Germany's worst recession since the nation was formed 33 years ago in the American, British and French occupation zones of defeated Germany. The Bundstag or lower house of parliament elected Kohl West Ger- many's sixth chancellor by a vote of 256 to 235 after a bitter five-hour debate that boded ill for future tranquility. SCHMIDT'S Social Democrats, who took power under Chancellor Willy Brandt Oct. 21, 1969, surendered to, a new parliamentary majority of the Christian Democrats and the tiny but pivotal Free Democratic Party with bitterness and charges of betrayal. Kohl won the backing of 30 of the 53 Free Democratic members of Parliment, to give him seven more votes that the necessary majority of 249. Schmidt, 63, who in a savage speech disputed the right of Kohl to replace him without a new national election, and Brandt, the Social Democratic Partypresident, gave Kohl only a cold, perfunctory handshake on his victory. BUT HUNDREDS of- Germans gathered outside and inside the parliament building, craning their necks to catch a glimpse of Schmidt and wave good-bye. Schmidt's term still had two years to go, but he lost his majority in parliament Sept. 17 when Free Democratic leader Hans-Dietrich Gen- scher quit as foreign minister and vice chancellor over a budget dispute and led his party out of the coalition. Genscher, said to be such an astute student of popular opinion that he can "hear the political grass grow," will get the same two posts in Kohl's cabinet. SCHMIDT TOLD Kohl in his last speech as chancellor that three- quarters of the German people want new elections as he has propsed and they considered the no-confidence vote See GERMANY, Page 3 at nea: By JIM SPARKS Defenders of the School of Natural Resources turned out in droves last night, packing more than 300 suppor- ters into Rackham Auditorium for a public hearing on the school's future. The impressive turnout - by far the largest yet for a University budget hearing - was designed to send an important signal to administrators who are debating whether to make deep cuts in the program's budget. THE SCHOOL'S backers brought in speakers from as far away as Illinois and California to praise the program before members of the University's Budget Priorities Committee last night. Others, mainly alumni, studen- ts, professors, and state officials, also trumpeted what they called the school's successful experiment at marrying the teaching of natural resources with economics, business, and other social sciences. So many speakers turned out at the hearing last night that the meeting ring, ran far longer than its scheduled two hours. All of the more than 30 persons to speak urged the administration to spare the school from deep cutbacks. . Many of those who spoke responded to charges made against the school by Vice President for Academic Affairs Billy Frye. The charges included suggestions that the school's students are not up to par, that its research is inadequate, that enrollment is drop- ping unusually fast, and that the school spends too much to educate each student BUT SOME of last night's speakers turned the tables on those charges, in- sisting that, for example, it is because of the expense that the school's students are so well trained. The school's field classes had come under particular fire for their high cost, but last night they received high praise from students, professors, and natural resources professionals.

'U' doctors transplant kidney, to 18-day-old By STACY POWELL With wire reports Extra-strength Tylenol capsules were whisked off store shelves all over Ann Arbor yesterday, following reports that some supplies of the drug delivered to Detroit-area drug stores were from the batch con- taminated with cyanide. Already, six people in the Chciago area have died from taking cyanide-laced Tylenol capsules from the same shipments of the drug. TWO SHIPMENT numbers of the drug have already been implicated in the poisonings, MC2880 and MD1910. One other shipment, numbered MBQ738, is also suspected of being contaminated with cyanide. The shipment numbers are printed on the upper-right corner of the Tylenol label. Although pharmacies around Ann Arbor apparen- tly have not received any shipments of the con- taminated Tylenol, store officials say they are removing all bottles of Extra-strength Tylenol cap- sules from their shelves. "We've pulled our entire stock of the Tylenol cap- sules until we find out if anything else is going on," said Richardson Drug Store's pharmacist Greg Pitaniello. EMPLOYEES AT the Village Apothecary, another campus drug store, also pulled their supply of the capsules from the shelves. Patty Thompson, an em- ployee, said, "We heard the numbers on television and copied them down." Neither store has been contacted by the Food and Drug Administration, the government agency which controls pharmaceuticals. "Johnson & Johnson (the parent company of Tylenol's manufacturer) have their whole force out contacting people, the whole Michigan area, in per- son," said Alfred Bott, a buyer for one of the Ann Ar- bor's Tylenol distributors. "All our salesmen have been contacted. We're not selling any (Extra- strength Tylenol capsules) at all," he added. Bott said that there are drug recalls all the time, but that this incident is the "biggest scare" he remembers. THE FDA HAS been warning consumers about the poisoning through television, radio, and newspapers. It also has been in contact with the Poison Control See TYLENOL, Page 2 By LOU FINTOR A team of University hospital physicians yesterday sent home the smallest infant ever to undergo a suc- cessful kidney transplant. When Karla Kimsey, the four-pound, 14-ounce infant, was born prematurely on August 18th, University physicians discovered that she did not have fun- ctional kidneys. RECOGNIZING that her chances for survival with no mechanism to cleanse her blood and excrete waste fluid were virtually nonexistant, surgeons sear- ched for a suitable kidney donor and successfully completed the six-hour transplant surgery Sept. 5. "She's made it over the first hurdle," said Dr. Donald Dafoe, the surgeon who performed the transplant. "The recovery period was relatively smooth, but there were some rough times, some times that we did some nail-biting," he added. According to Dr. Dietrich Roloff, a member of the surgical team, the 10 days immediately following the tran- splantation were the most critical period. It is during this period that initial "rejection" of the new organ by the recipient's body will occur. PHYSICIANS said they will monitor Karla closely during the next six mon- ths while she begins a lifetime of drug therapy to reduce the risk of rejection S fDOCTORS-Pa e 2 Hal's Place oe "IUi n, age House kills balan edt budget amendment From AP and UPI WASHINGTON - The Democratic- Senate candidates were expected to controlled House yesterday rejected a blame Democrats for defeating a White House-backed constitutional measure they said has broad public amendment to require a balanced support. budget, handing President Reagan a Sponsors argued the amendment, crushing pre-election defeat, which passed the Senate 69 to 31 earlier The House voted 236-187, 46 shy of the this year, was needed to end two required two-thirds majority, for the decades of deficit spending. proposal that would require Congress to Actually, it was no guarantee against adopt a balanced budget resolution continued red ink, though it would have every year.

Many of the visitors at the humble household of University President Harold Shapiro said they wanted to learn more about him. "YOU CAN look through all the books and academic materials Dr. Shapiro has collected and get to know his character and academic tastes," said Japanese graduate student Sumio Miida. The main table, a major center of attention at the open house, contained various pastries, cookies, and other delectable hi-calorie delights. Punch and apple cider quenched the thirst of the discriminating tasters. Many were heard to mumble between mouthfuls about the recent tuition hike. The newest campus jazz trio, "The Innovations," soothed the crowed with what they called "mellow sounds." Other students were happy to be at the gala, but for different reasons. Calling his job a "fulfilling experien- ce," punch-server Steve Roach said he was there to "work off the ransom being asked for his transcript." te Shapiro 's ORGANIZERS and chaperones of the event, the Office of Student Organizations, Activities, and Programs and the University Ac- tivities Center Committee, mingled to keep the conversation light and to prevent overzealous fans from ab- sconding with some of the noted economists books and papers, said spokesman Leigh Sweda. Some guests were interested neither in the food nor the president's house. Undergraduate Chr iistopher Nehavin said he came "to get a dif- ferent perspective on the graduate library." The library is directly behind the president's house on S. University. Senior philosophy candidate, Stephen Kass, said he wanted to ask President Shapiro why noted theologist Hans Kung, was invited as a visiting professor at a state univer- sity. What did the Shapiros think of their home opened to public scrutiny? Both the president and his wife Vivian said they enjoyed the occasion. "They're (students) always full of energy. I wish we could do it more of- ten," said Mrs. Shapiro, adding that she hoped a similar reception can be held at the Union after graduation ceremonies.

Under an incentive program, inmates can get their fill of cable TV, including 24 hours of movies, if they keep their cells clean. McCarthy said prisoners must pass a weekly, unannounced inspection by himself and the jail warden. According to the sheriff, clean and neat cells are a problem in any jail because most ,prisoners are interested in getting out and have little in- terest in their temporary home. But.
