See UCLA, Page 13 By JIM SPARKS The University's top budget comm- ittee has endorsed a plan to cut the School of Natural Resources budget by one-third, and greatly reduce the num- ber of undergraduate students in the school. If the recommendations are ap- proved, most of the reductions in the school's $2.6 million budget would come from personnel cuts, according to Billy Frye, vice president for academic af- fairs. The cuts would be spread over five years. THE BUDGET Priorities Committee also recommended boosting the school's doctoral program, increasing its research effort, reducing the num ber of master's students and reorganizing the school's curriculum. The full report of the subcommittee which reviewed the school will not be released until tomorrow, but it does not contain any "hard and firm numbers" as to exactly how much should be cut, according to Mary Ann Swain, who heads the University's Budget Priorities Committee. She said it will be up to the school to develop specific plans for dealing with the overall cutback. - WILLIAM Johnson, the school's outgoing dean, said he doubts his school can reduce its budget that much and still achieve the committee's quality goals. Responding to the report, Johnson recommended a 20 percent, instead of a 30 percent cut, with most of the savings coming through attrition. The committee's other major recommendation - to greatly reduce the number of undergraduate students- would give professors more time for research and let the school be more See SCHOOL, Page 2 Divestment bill app roved; ' eyes resistance, Michigan tailback Lawrence Ricks linebacker Blanchard Montgomery Pasadena, Calif.

The money, which amounted to $177 for each of the department's 11 employees, was given anonymously by professors to augment this year's "inadequate" salary raises for office staff. PAY INCREASES for office staff fell well below those for faculty members across the University this year when the administration for the first time gave different pay hikes to the two groups. In a written memo of thanks to the professors, secretaries expressed both the joy of finding such compassionate and generous bosses and their dismay with the administration for leaving them behind this year. "Your generosity of spirit is pivotal, because it con- firms the commitment in this department, at any rate, to the human values that I hoped to find in my place of work when I first sought employment with the University," wrote one secretary. ANOTHER SAID: "Not only does the money help to offset the difference in the University's raise and inflation, but the spirit behind the action more than offsets the administration's bureaucratic attitude, and makes one realize that such decisions are often not made with the individual in mind." Added Karen Van Raalte, the department office coordinator: "In all my years at the University, I don't ever recall so magnanimous a gesture from faculty to staff." The University made a value judgment by distinguishing the faculty from the staff and by showing its commitment only to the faculty, Van Raalte said. THE GIFT was not meant as a protest but as an at- tempt to supplement the insufficient pay hikes the secretaries received, said English Prof. Hubert English, who acted as intermediary for the faculty members. "That was very nice of them," said Billy Frye, the budget officer who was responsible for the University See DICKENSIAN, Page 10 By BARRY WITT University officials are headed for a collision with the state over recent legislation that requires the University to withdraw its investments from com- panies working in South Africa. As one of his last acts in office, for- mer Governor William Milliken signed a bill - approved in mid-December by the Senate and earlier by the House - that bars state colleges from buying or maintaining stock in U.S. corporations with divisions in the racially- segregated nation. The University has until April 1, 1984 to divest from some 40 firms, including large multinationals such as General Motors Corp, and Ford Motor Co. In- vestments in the companies concerned represent about one-fifth of the Univer- sity's entire $420 million portfolio, ac- cording to officials. But many University administrators and Regents, who have long resisted divestment, are questioning the con- Council pressed to put, 'pot law on city ballot stitutionality of the legislation and suggesting that the University just ignore it. Although no decision has been reached on whether to obey the law, many University officials believe the state does not have the authority to establish rules on University financial matters. "The legislation is unconstitutional," University General Counsel Roderick Daane said yesterday. The Michigan constitution states that the Regents have "control and direction of all ex- penditures from the institution's fun- ds." But Rep. Perry Bullard (D-Ann Ar- bor), who sponsored the-bill, has said that the state can enforce what it con- siders civil rights legislation. Regents contacted yesterday were unsure of what they will do about the new law. Several said they had not yet read it and were unprepared to com- ment.

The question is no longer if the University's operating budget, which is heavily dependent on state aid, will suf- fer cuts, but how much those cuts will be. Both University and state officials said they are expecting huge cuts that could do substantial damage to the University. GOVERNOR James Blanchard, now See STATE, Page 10 By KRISTIN STAPLETON After failing to come up with enough signatures to put a proposal to repeal the city's $5 pot fine on the April ballot, a group of citizens has asked the Ann Arbor City Council to do the job for it. Richard Draft and David Logan, both local physicians, asked City Council members last Monday to put the proposal on the city's ballot. Since sup- porters of the ballot question were able to gather only 2,000 of the 5,200 signatures necessary to put it on the ballot by voter petition, city council would have to act in order to give city voters a chance to decide the question. BRADLEY Spencer, a teacher at Huron High School, said the reason the petition drive failed was lack of time. "We only had about two weeks," he said. "There was more than enough in- terest." William Bullard, another Ann Arbor resident active on the repeal campaign, said the group originally thought they needed only 3,500 signatures. "We were told by the city clerk that 3,500 Voters to consider "weatherization" proposal on April's city ballot. See story, Page 3. Candidates line up for city's mayoral race. See story, Page 3. signatures would put it on the ballot," he said. "Later, they said they had inadvertently told us the wrong num- ber. State law states that we have to have 5 percent of the voters of the city (5,200)." "I'm personally not discouraged," Bullard said. "We got over 2,000 signatures in about a week and a half- without organizing. We just weren't able to do it in the time we had," he said. BULLARD SAID he thinks city coun- cil will put the proposal on the ballot. He said that because the repeal cam- paign has brought the issue to the atten- tion of the public, councilmembers "are See COUNCIL, Page 3 'Twas the season Workers remove a giant wreath from the Ann Arbor News building, signalling the end of another holiday season.

McDaniel, 54, with the help of two other taxpayers, dragged two plastic buckets full of more than 41,000 pennies up the steps to the Internal Revenue Service offices to protest alleged IRS mistreatment in its efforts to collect $410.59 in back taxes.

Since we began running the listings in September, the paper has been beseiged by com- plaints they're "ugly," "a waste of space," and "an insult to our intelligence."

To the rest of you who came to rely on us for the schedule: We extend our apologies (but you shouldn't be watching so much TV anyway).Q " 1952-a federal judge agreed to grant a stay of execution for the Rosenbergs, in the famous spy trials, if they filed for presidential clemency from charge of treason.
