And many oil industry officials expect Britain to cut its $30.50 price soon, w hat t perhaps below OPEC's rate.

Program reduction was one of several areas explored at the conference. Workshops were held to discuss the ef- fects of redirecton on minorities, faculty members, and research oppor- tunities. Anthropology Prof. Niara Sudarkasa feared that minorities will be severely hurt by the budget reductions. "Already, there is no longer a commit- tment to bring in non-whites. They have a right to access the University," she said. "MINORITIES are always walking the tightrope of program cuts with no say in the decision-making process," said Yolanda Marino, coordinator for Hispanic Student Services. According to Sudarkasa, minorities are losing the little voice they have in University affairs. 1 explored "We're awakened to find the house is crumbling around us, without having any input for future decisions," she said. University President Harold Shapiro also attended the conference. "I think the conference was useful,"he said. "It caused me to think again about some issues. But there are no magic solutions to the problems." Natural Resources student Jennifer Simon said SNR students came up with the idea for the conference during a field trip. The students organized most of the project, she said. "I was disappointed at the turnout. There weren't enough people to hold separate workshops, so we didn't have enough time for discussion," Simon said. IN BRIEF Compiled from Associated Press and United Press International reports 10,000 Japanese to protest return of U.S. nuclear carrier TOKYO - Police expect at least 10,000 demonstrators to turn out tomorrow to protest the return of the nuclear-powered U.S. aircraft carrier Enterprise for the first time since the Vietnam War. The demonstrators clearly are out to mock hawkish Prime Minsiter Yasuhiro Nakasone, who has enraged the opposition by telling the United States that Japan will become an "unsinkable aircraft carrier." On the last visit of the Enterprise, in 1968, 40,000 demonstrators clashed with police at the western port of Sasebo, leaving more than 500 people injured. Sasebo will play host to the ship again tomorrow. The protesters contend the Enterprise carries nuclear weapons and its presence violates Japan's non-nuclear principles, which prohibit the introduction, manufac- ture of storage of such arms in Japanese territory. The Japanese are the only people ever to have suffered nuclear attack - the U.S. Atomic bombings of Hiroshima and nagasaki at the end of World War II. Airline union rejects contract MIAMI - Eastern Airlines' largest union, hoping to push management back to the bargaining table, rejected what the airline called its "final" contract offer by a margin of almost 4-to-, labor leaders said yesterday. Seventy-two percent turned down Eastern's offer of a 322percent pay hike over three years, said Charles Bryan, president of the International Association of Machinists District 10. He said 10,500 of IAM's 13,000 members cast ballots, and about 10 ballots are still uncounted. No exact figures were released. A strike deadline is scheduled for 12:01 a.m. Thursday, and Bryan was confident that IAM members would reaffirm their strike authorization in a separate ballot being counted last ight. the two sides are scheduled to meet in Washington tomorrow before the National Mediation Board. On Friday, Borman said he would not negotiate any further. But yesterday, he said the airline would send a representative to Washington. Hussein, Arafat to meet this week LONDON - Jordan's King Hussein, leader of a six-nation Arab league delegation to Britain, saidyesterday he will meet with PLO chief Yasser Arafat this week in the latest round of Middle East peace efforts. U.S. Mideast trouble shooter Philip Habib met with Hussein for just over an hour and was to fly to Israel today. Habib said the purpose of the meeting was to review with Hussein the visits to Washington last week of the Israeli and Lebanese foreign ministers and to bring the king up to date on the status of the talks on the withdrawal of foreign troops from Lebanon. "His majesty was very gracious to receive me. . . and we naturally went over the groudn in this regard rather thoroughly," Habib said without elaborating. Hussein told a news conference earlier that he would meet with Arafat, chair- man of the Palestine Liberation Organization, but he did not disclose the exact day or place. Walesa plans 'efficient' protests VIENNA, Austria - Polich labor leader Lech Walesa, in an interview published yesterday, outlined a strategy of peaceful protests, reminiscent of those staged by India's Mohandas Gandhi, to wrest reforms from the communist government in Poland. "We have devised many efficient means of pressure, many of which haven't been tried out yet," the former chief of the Solidarity labor federation said in the interview published by the Vienna daily Die Presse. One form of protest, he was quoted as saying, could be cancellation of television subscriptions. In Poland, as in some other European countries, viewers pay a fee to receive TV programming. "That would be a big loss to the state treasury, and we could take more walks in the meantime," Walesa said in the interview, reportedly given in Gdansk after he attended a trial of former Solidarity officials. "We could also stop buying the bad vodka made by the government and make our own fruit spirits for family holidays," Walesa was quoted as saying. 'That would be another form of protest." "It may sound ridiculous, but our activists in the regions are absolutely capable of devising many nice and efficient means of pressure." Zimbabwe terrorists kill 4 HARARE, Zimbabwe - The government charged yesterday that followers of opposition leader Joshua Nkomo taunted, tied up, and then killed a white farmer, his wife and two granddaughters with single shots to the head "in classic terrorist execution style. " Nkomo, who fled to Britain a week ago charging Prime Minister Robert Mugabe's troops were out to kill him after liquidating hundreds of his followers, cold not be reached for comment. Oficials said he had checked out of his London hotel and that his whereabout were not known. The Mugabe government said Eric Stratford, 66, his wife Christine, 62, and two granddaughters aged 12 and 15 were shot through their heads at the Stratford farm in the Nyamandhlovu region of central Matabeleland just after dusk Friday. Government Information Director Justin Nyoka said in a statement that six "dissidents," the term the government uses for Nkomo backers, marched the four whites at gunpoint from the house and paraded them before black farm laborers, some of who had earlier told the gunmen Stratford was "a bad boss."
