A federal district court judge yester-
day scheduled an October hearing to
determine whether the federal gover-
nment should be required to turn over
classified documents to the lawyers of a
University student charged with failing
to register for the draft.
The White House has refused under
executive privilege to turn over 126
documents to Daniel Rutt's lawyers,
arguing the papers pertain to national
security.
DENNIS JAMES, one of Rutt's
American Civil Liberties Union
Lawyers, said the documents consisted
of notes from cabinet-level meetings
where candidates for indictment were
discussed.
James and fellow ACLU lawyer
James Lafferty asked the court to
release the papers last May.
Lafferty said the documents are im-
portant to a pre-trial motion which asks
that the charges against Rutt, a
graduate student in public health,
s case
bedropped because he is being selec-
tively prosecuted for his outspoken op-
position to registration.
RUTT, ONE of 15 men nationwide
charged with failing to register, refused
to comply with the law for religious
reasons.
In his ruling yesterday, Judge Philip
Pratt said that neither side had submit-
ted enough evidence to support their
arguments and scheduled a hearing
Oct. 6 in Detroit.
Although Rutt pleaded innocent to
the charge last year, he said two weeks
ago, he might want to change his plea in
the case to guilty.
Rutt has been waiting for Pratt's
decision since May. "I was kind of sur-
prised they put it off this long," he said.
But Rutt said he was in no rush to
resolve the matter. "The longer they
put it off, the more things I can get
done," he said.
The selective prosecution motion is
the last of Rutt's five pre-trial motions.
The other four were denied during the
summer.

Arms reduction proposed
(Continued from Page 1)
Since the administration already has
proposed a cut of some 2,200 warheads
- the Soviets would have to destroy
about 2,900 to reach Reagan's proposed
ceiling of 5,000 on each side - the
"build-down" idea could be easily in-
corporated into the U.S. stand, said the
official, who spoke only on condition he
not be named.
How the Soviets will react is not
clear. They have resisted other U.S. ef-
forts to set the terms for reducing
strategic nuclear weapons, and "in
general, they say that's your problem,"
said the official.
THE NEGOTIATIONS are due to
resume Oct. 5 in Geneva, Switzerland,
despite the chill in U.S. - Soviet
relations over the shooting down of a
South Korean commercial jetliner,
killing all 269 people, including 61
Americans aboard.

David Robinson, an assistant director
of admissions who works with the
problem of recruiting minority students
to campus, agreed. "Yes, I think
(programs) are suffering," he said.
"But in the end, I think they'll gain."
LACKING A director, Trotter House
is being run by the Office of Community
Services staff members, who are plan-
ning programs for the school year.
Ellen Offen, an office staff member,
said Trotter House will sponsor
seminars and bring in speakers of
special interest to minority students as
well as focus on academics. Offen said
the center is establishing a file of old
exams.
Despite the troubles, Robinson, of the
admissions office, said the center is
becoming much more useful. "Initially,
(Trotter House) served a political pur-
pose," he said. But now, with a greater
focus on academics, the center "can
serve a real purpose for minority
students," he said.
E-Systems continues
the tradition of
the world's great problem solvers.
Developing the ana-
lytical theory known by his
name, Joseph Fourier gave
the world a basic tool for
engineering analysis and
system design.
Today, E-Systems
engineers are carrying on
his tradition. They're using
Fourier's mathematical
accomplishments to solve
some of the world's tough-
est electronics problems
via computer-designed
circuitry.
E-Systems designs
and produces communica-
tions systems, data systems,
antenna systems, intelli-
gence and reconnaissance
systems that are often the
first-of-a-kind in the world.
