Reaganomics key to
Congressional race
The Michigan Daily-Sunday, October 24, 1982-Page 3
From AP and UPI
If the Democrats hope to regain con-
trol of the Senate, they will have to turn
snowballing fear of unemployment into
an avalanche of anger at President
Reagan's economic policies.
But according to a poll in recent
weeks, more and more Americans have
decided that President Reagan's
economic policies need more time to
work, signaling the effectiveness of
Republican efforts to convince the
public to "give the guy a chance."
THE LATEST Associated Press-NBC
News poll says 52 percent of the public
now expresses patience with Reagan's
economic policies and more than half
also accept the GOP contention that the
nation's problems are the result of past
presidents, not the current one.
In comparison, the AP-NBC News
poll in August - before the Republican
National Committee began its latest
flight of television commercials
urging patience with the economic
policies and to "stay the course" - said
only 38 percent believed the president
hadn't had enought time to begin im-
proving the economy.
All of this adds up to possibly good
news for GOP candidates with the elec-
tions less than 10 days away, since
Reagan's economic program has been
the dominant issue in many
congressional campaigns this fall.
Democrats have blamed the policies for
high unemployment and Republicans
crediting them for lowering inflation.
FOR THE Democrats to topple the
two-year GOP reign, they will have to
hang on to 20 seats they now hold, win
two open sets held by retiring
Republicans and upset three of 11 GOP
incumbents.
A United Press International state-
by-state survey of the 33 Senate races
shows the task is formidable, if not im-
possible. Republicans predict they
may gain as many as three seats.
Democratic campaign officials
believe they stand a good chance of
gaining at least one seat.
But although Americans were more
likely to say Democrats are better able
to fight unemployment, in the AP poll
they rated both parties as equally
capable of handling the nation's overall
economic problems.
In fact, 56 percent of those inter-
viewed blamed the nation's economic
problems on previous administrations
rather than Reagan's. Twenty-three
percent blamed Reagan and 21 percent
were not sure.
Also, the poll said 52 percent of those
questioned do not think Reagan has had
enough time to begin improving the
economy, 43 percent said Reagan's
policies have had enough time to
become effective. The remainder were
undecided.

Midwest Greeks meet in Ann Arbor
By HALLE CZECHOWSKI
Midwestern Greeks flocked into town
by the tens this weekend, and reactions
to this year's annual Big Ten Greek
conference were positive, for the most
part.
Sororities and fraternities from the
Big Ten universities and surrounding
colleges sent about 100 representatives
to Ann Arbor. "We are teaching greeks
how to develop a relationship on campus,
and a good one at that," according to
Alpha Tau Omega member Matthew
Harris.
MOST participants said they felt the
conference was a worthwhile experien-
ce. "This is the first conference that
I've been to and I'm sure I'll go to
more," said Mark Turner of Albion
College. "It's been an eye-opener."
But some visitors said they were a bit
disappointed with the turnout. "If more
Big Ten schools had come, it would
have been much more beneficial," said
Indiana's Debbie Perlman. Mary Jo
Pivona from Northern Michigan
University said, "I'm surprised that
there's not more people here."
Sporting the theme "Positive Images
on Campus and Beyond," the conferen-
ce addressed such issues as "The Sex
Appeal of Philanthropy, Computerized
Rush, Alternatives to ERA, Social
Responsibility, Alcohol Awareness, and
Hazing."
BUT THE conference was more than
just seminars, according to some who
attended. "I think it's good, it really
unifies the greek system. It's really
special to come here to meet your
sisters from other states," said Sally
Teunesi from Wayne State.
Still, not everybody was enthusiastic
about the get-together. "I think it's a
farce," said Ted Lou of Delta Kappa
Epsilon. "To actually spend money on
it, it's not worth $30. I think it's a joke.
You spend a whole weekend, and what
do you learn? I don't know." Lou said
that his fraternity planned to send only
their pledges to the conference.
This weekend marked the first time
in two years the greeks have
congregated.

TUESDAY LUNCH-DISCUSSION-12 NOON
2nd In the Series, UNDERSTANDING THE LEBANON-ISRAELI-
MIDDLE EAST CRISES
"ENCOUNTERING TRAGEDY IN LEBANON"
Speaker: DR. RICHARD BUTLER, Director of the Middle East division, National Coun-
cil of Churches in the USA. He was part of a team visiting Lebanon in June and again in September
discussing th- Church World Service plans with Middle East Council of Churches for aid to the people
of Lebanon. He will report on his personal observations in Lebanon.

"DORM ROOMS are a small area
where a animal would beatightly con-
fined,'"j he continued, and "often
students are too busy with tight
schedules to properly take care of
pets."
Students sometimes do not make
good pet owners, said Julie Morris,
education director of the Huron Valley
Humane Society. "Most students are
transients; they move around a lot, and
this can be a problem if they own pets,"
she said. "If a student moves, his new
roommates may not like pets, or the
new landlord may not allow pets."
And finding a new owner for the pet
can be difficult. Nancy, a University
student, is the owner of Splotchy, a cat
which she's been trying to get rid of
because her landlord doesn't allow
pets. Posters around campus advertise
Splotchy as an "adorable kitten." Nan-
cy said, "We've been actively trying to
getsrid of Splotchy forthree weeks, and
no one has shown an interest. We're
desperate to get rid of her."
THE PET usually loses out in this
situation, said Morris. "The pet will of-
ten end up at the Humane Society. If we
can't find an owner for it, we will
humanely destroy it."
Doris Dixon, Michigan coordinator
for the Fund for Animals, said,
"Students are sometimes too wrapped
up in their own lives to care for an
animal. An animal needs love just like
people. Students should spend a
day at the Humane Society to learn
more about how animals suffer."
Many students, however, do have the
time to car for their pets.
The Sigma Chi fraternity on State St.
owns an energetic dog named That-
cher. According to Dave Train, a
senior in mechanical engineering,
Thatcher is a black labrador with a
white chest who originally introduced
himself by wagging his tail and running
around the kitchen looking for crumbs.
"The dog leads a healthy sex life,"
Train said jokdngly. "He goes both ways.
Basically one person takes care of him
and sleeps with him, the same guy
who's in charge of the kitchen." That-
cher is also a dog of diverse interests,
said Train. "He has several hobbies:
running, classical music, soccer, and
going to classes. Those and his sex
habits keep him busy."
No sororities say they own pets. A
member of Delta Delta Delta sorority
on Tappan St. said, "We have no pets
here, nor boys, nor men."
