0 Page 2-Saturday, November 6, 1982-The Michigan Daily Thompson elected Ill. governor IN BRIEF From AP and UPI CHICAGO- Incumbent James Thompson emerged the winner yester- day over Democrat Adlai Stevenson in the photo-finish Illinois governor's race, according to final unofficial returns that gave him a margin of 9,401 votes out of 3.6 million. With unofficial returns in from all, 11,6423precincts, Thompson had 1,813,133 votes to Stevenson's 1,803,732-a margin of about one- quarter of 1 percent. THE TALLY was not completed until more than 2 days after polls closed Tuesday, amid reports of empty or im- properly sealed ballot boxes, moisture- damaged ballots and missing ballots. The state Board of Elections will cer- tify the official results on Nov. 22. Elections officials, anticipating a recount, ordered clerks in all 102 coun- ties to secure the ballots. Stevenson did not concede defeat, but Thompson quickly claimed victory. ANY DIFFERENCES discovered during a recount would not change the official result, but could be submitted as part of a court challenge to the results. Officials said there has not been a statewide recount of a major Illinois race in recent history. "Absolutely, we won," an elated Thompson said after the last returns from Chicago's normally Republican suburbs put him ahead. "We beat 'em and we beat'em good." BUT THOMPSON still must survive several more steps in the election process and a possible court challenge before taking the oath of office for a third term. Stevenson, who rebounded dramatically from pre-electionpolls that showed him trailing by up to 19 pqints, indicated he might challenge the Reagan aj From AP and UPI, WASHINGTON - President Reagan yesterday picked Donald Hodel, a close friend of Interior Secretary James Watt, to be the country's new energy secretary. Like Watt, Hodel has often come un- der fire from environmentalists, but unlike other energy secretaries, he is unquestionably an expert on the subjec- ts the agency handles. HODEL, A 47-year-old lawyer now in the No. 2 job at the Interior Depar- tment, served for six years as head of the giant Bonneville Power Ad- ministration, the federal agency which markets electricity in Western states. The "naming of Hodel to replace Energy Secretary James Edwards, who resigned, came only three days af- ter Election Day and was evidence the administration had been holding back major changes so voters wouldn't think key aides were deserting the president. Deputy press secretary Larry Speakes who announced the appointment, said there were no political overtones to the timing. HODEL, 47, who worked closesly with the controversial Wattand guided many of his proposals on Capitol Hill, already has come under attack from Compiled from Associated Press and United Press international reports Cuban government officials charged in drug conspiracy MIAMI- Four Cuban government officials-two diplomats, a navy vice admiral and the man who helped organize the 1980 Cuban boatlift-were charged by the U.S. government in drug conspiracy indictments released yesterday. They were among 14 people accused of using the island "as a loading station and source of supplies" for drug smugglers operating between Colombia and the United States between October 1979 and January 1981. The eight-count, 19-page indictment was sparse on details but mentioned an alleged plan to smuggle 5 million methaqualone tablets into the United States. The counts charged conspiracies to import marijuana and methaqualone from Colombia, by way of Cuba. The indictments resulted from at least four months of investigation by a grand jury. The U.S. government decided to seek indictments against the Cuban officials to draw international attention to their role, even though there is little hope of prosecuting them. "We are hopeful that we could get them from a third country if they travel," said Brent Eaton, a spokesman for the Drug Enforcement Ad- ministration. "Obviously, we can't get them from Cuba. This indictment stays in effect for a long time." r 4 AP Photo Republican Governor James Thompson, left, and running mate George Ryan celebrate victory at campaign headquar- ters in Chicago yesterday. With all of the unofficial totals in Thompson holds only a 9,000 vote lead, .3 percent of the votes. Democratic challenger Adlai Stevenson announced he will be protesting the ballot count. results in court. But he said that wouldn't be decided until after official returns are announced. "The way it's going, it looks to me as if whichever side is the loser will have to very seriously consider that option," Stevenson said in a television interview shortly before the final unofficial retur- ns were tallied. BEFORE returns were announced yesterday for 106 previously unreported Cook County suburbs, unofficial returns had shown Stevenson leading Thom- pson by 2,952 votes. Stevenson campaign attorney John Schmidt said unofficial returns tabulated by the Stevenson camp showed the challenger with an "ex- tremely slim majority." "We end up essentially where we thought we would end up, that is with an extremely slim majority," Schmidt said. THE GOVERNOR vaulted into the lead on the strength of votes in the heavily Republican Chicago suburbs- the final precincts to be counted. Those totals were announced yesterday by Cook County Clerk Stanley Kusper. "These numbers are preliminary and unofficial," Kusper said. "It is the first time we have a ballpark number. It is always possible there was a keypunch error when you're punching 20 million figures." Oil profits tax struck down WASHINGTON- In a decision that threatens billions of dollars in gover- nment revenue, a federal judge yesterday declared the windfall oil profits tax unconstitutional. Government officials immediately vowed to challenge the decision by U.S. District Judge Ewing Kerr in Cheyenne, Wyo. Because Kerr overturned an act of Congress, the government can appeal directly to the Supreme Court. "We do intend to appeal," said Treasury Department spokesman Marlin*. Fitzwater. "We will continue to collect the taxes pending the appeal as the judge's ruling allows." Kerr concluded that the tax, imposed under the Carter administration, is invalid because it exempts Alaskan oil and thus is not applied uniformly to all states. The tax, the judge found, "on its face says that one state, Alaska, is not subject to the same tax at the same rate as all the other states. This is a clear violation of the constitutional requirement of uniformity." points new energy secretary conservationists. "America does not need a second Watt in the Cabinet," Sierra Club President Denny Shaffer wrote Reagan last month when it was reported that Hodel was under consideration to head the department that Reagan seeks to dismantle. "Ronald Reagan has continued to fill his Cabinet with anti-environmental zealots," said Rafe Pomerance, president of Friends of the Earth. 'The symbolism of giving Watt's deputy a seat on the Cabinet is absolutely in- credible." CRITICS OF the administration's energy policies complain that conser- vation programs and efforts to develop renewable energy sources have been almost eliminated in favor of reviving nuclear power. Hodel, while head of the power ad- ministration, derided environmen- talists as "prophets of shortages" and an "arrogant faction which is dedicated to bringing our society to a halt." Some administration officials had questioned whether Hodel should bel tapped for the energy position because of - opposition in Congress to Watt's policies. In the end, it was decided Hodel was the best person for the job because of his commitment to carrying out Reagan's pledge to abolish the agency and transfer most of its fun- ctions to the Commerce Department, said administration sources. Hodel's appointment was announced without fanfare. Neither Reagan nor Hodel were present. Nixon, ex-aides to hold reunion, WASHINGTON (UPI) - Richard Nixon and many of his former top White House aids will enjoy a nostalgic reunion at a Washington hotel tonight to celebrate the 10th anniversary of his ill- fated 1972 re-election as president. The sentimental gathering at a black-' tie dinner was arranged by Ronald Walker, former chief of Nixon's advan- ce teams, with a guest list of about 200, including many prominent people who figured in the Watergate scandal. "IT'S NOT A Watergate reunion," said Walker. He said he and 46 of his former advance men decided. it was time for a get-together after a decade, and planned a weekend together with their wives, including a White House tour today, a luncheon and a brunch "to sober up." "We're just going to get together and tell stories," Walker said. Nixon and other members of his palace guard are invited guests, Qb1urc i Wlbtp ertcE0 ST.

WMU to close dor ms, vacancies to blame (Continued from Page 1) some units, he added. One off-campus landlord, Howard. McGrew, manager of West Campus Apartments, said that his units are not experiencing much of a problem with vacancy. McGrew, however, said that the few vacancies he is experiencing are the first in his seven years as manager. "Western lost 1,000-some students since last year and that has to have something to do with it (the vacancy rate)," McGrew said. McGrew also said that though he has not had to cut the rent rates, he has had to take other actions. "We've pulled in some of our expenditures," he said, ad- ding that "over the past couple years we have closed one building during the summer to keep costs down." McGrew said he doesn't believe the problem will get better next year. He said that "unless the economy swings around, we won't have any rent in- Nicaraguan rebels supported by U.S., residents report LA MANZANILLA, Honduras- Nicaraguan rightist rebels using U.S. ar- ms and equipment freely train and operate from bases inside Honduras in their campaign to overthrow the leftist Managua regime, border residents report. A visit to a deserted commando base on a bushy hill near La Manzanilla, close to the Caribbean coast, showed clearings and campfires where residents said up to 500 men had been based less than a two-hour walk from the border. The rightists left behind a can of surplus U.S. military issue gun oil; U.S. military K-ration bags packaged in Edinburg, Texas; empty boxes of Win- chester-Western pistol shells packaged in New Haven, Conn.; instructions, in English, for use of hammock tents, and empty medicine ampules with in- structions in English. Israel to add new settlements TEL AVIV, Israel - Israel is to build or extend 20 Jewish settlements in the occupied West Bank of the Jordan during the next 12 months, a top set- tlement official said yesterday. Deputy Agriculture Minister Michael Dekel, who heads an interdepar- tmental committee on settlement construction, did not say how many of the 20 would be new outposts, but reiterated Israel's goal to populate 160 West Bank settlements with 100,000 Jews within the next five years. Dekel, interviewed on Israel radio, said settlement construction "is a con- tinuous process, and more settlements will be built." Presently there are about 25,000 Jews in 103 settlements built since Israel captured the West Bank from Jordan in 1967. "I don't know exactly what the Americans got alarmed about," he said. "If this government policy doesn't please the Americans, it's the Americans' problem," he said. Soviets to retaliate if NATO deploys new missiles in Europe MOWCOW. - Viktor Grishin, a member of the ruling Politburo, warned yesterday that if NATO deploys new U.S. nuclear missiles in Europe the Soviets will respond "with whatever measures it may find necessary." In a Kremlin speech marking the 65th anniversay of the Bolshevik Revolution Grishin also accused U.S. leaders of using the myth about the Soviet menace as a coverup" to seek military superiority and dictate "political terms to others." Western diplomats said Grishin broke no new ground n the speech. Grishin, head of the Moscow party organization, said the Soviets were doing everything possible to promote peace "at a time when the ruling circles of the United States intend to cross out everything positive that was achieved in the '70s, to bury detente and to revive the cold war." A frail-looking President Leonid Brezhnev was among an audience of 5,000 at the flag-draped Palace of Congresses, but his long-time heir apparent, Andrei Kirilenko, was absent. 0 1: .. 0 E Vol. XCIII, No.51 Saturday, November 6, 1982 The Michigan Daily is edited and managed by students at The University of Michigan.
