U.S District Court Judge Phillip Pratt ruled that the federal government must turn over 25 documents in the case of Daniel Rutt, whose attorneys say the papers will support their claim that Rutt is a victim of selective prosecution by the government. DEFENSE attorney James Lafferty said yesterday he had not seen the Judge's decision, but that the clerk in Pratt's office had informed him of it. Thus far, the government has refused to release the documents, claiming executive privilege.

Financial aid wars ' Congress hammering out student aid levels WASHINGTON (UPI) - President Reagan announced yesterday he will nominate William clark, his national security adviser and a longtime aide, to succeed the controversial James Watt as secretary of the interior. Reagan made the surprise announ- cement at the conclusion of an ap- pearance before a group of evangelical Christain women. "HE IS a God-fearing Westerner, fourth-generation rancher and a person I trust," Reagan said in springing the announcement. "And I think he will be a great secretary of the interior.', Reagan said Clark was selected from "more than two dozen" candidates. His chief spokesman, Larry Speakes, said 28 names, including those of women, blacks and Hispanics, had been "under active consideration" by Reagan aides. In the end, however, Reagan turned to a trusted associate a friend and political ally who served on his staff when he was governor of California and was plucked from the California Supreme Court by Reagan to become deputy secretary of state in 1981. THE FIRST reaction to his appoin- tment was - again - critical. Carl Pope, political director of one of the country's most powerful environmental organizations, the Sierra Club, said in San Franscisco, "We're dumbfounded. Mr. Clark has no visible record on en- vironmental issues. I've spoken to people who were involved in those issues in Sacramento when Ronald Reagan was governor and Clark neer showed any interest in those affairs." Clark, 51, served as chief of staff to Reagan in California and transfered from the State Department to his White House post in February 1982. He replaced Richard Allen. Reagan said he was nominating Clark "whith a good deal of pleasure" and paid a final tribute to Watt, who announced his resignation Sunday in a swirl pf controversy. "May I just tell you - I think he is succeeding a very fine secretary of the interior," Reagan said. WATT resigned under intense pressure from Republicans who feared he was a political liability to the party and the president. They were outraged by his flip remark before a business group describing the ethnic and See CLARK, Page 2 By KAREN TENSA Future funding levels for University financial aid hang on a precarious compromise being hammered out between the U.S. House and Senate, University officials said yesterday. Thomas Butts, the University's lobbyist in Washington, and University Financial Aid Director Harvey Grotrian say they are keeping a close eye on the progress of a compromise plan to be released early next week which would combine elements of the opposing financial aid budgets approved by the House and Senate last week. BOTH BUDGETS differ from President Reagan's request that funding for supplemental grants, state grants, and national direct student loans be eliminated. Instead, the plans increase appropriations for Pell Grants, supplemental grants, and state grants, while maintaining the funds in the Guaranteed Student Loan program and slightly decreasing work study funding and National Direct Student loans. But Reagan has said he would approve a com- promise incorporating such appropriations anyway, according to Butts. A House-Senate conference committee is scheduled to meet next Tuesday to begin combining the two budgets. According to Butts, Jamie Whitten (D- Miss.), chairman of the House appropriations com- mittee has said the Senate budget figures are likely to be approved by the commitee. UNDER THE budget passed by the Senate,-the Pell grant program would be increased by $381 million, raising the limit for students from the current level of $1,800 to $2,000. The House version calls for a $200 million increase nad a $1,900 limit. Grotrian said the Pell grant differences alone could have very different effects on aid to University students. "If the House figures are in the permanent budget, we will fund between 300 and 400 fewer students," he said. "If the Senate figures are accepted, we will be able to continue our current level of funding." WORK STUDY funds are also in trouble, Butts said, because a jobs bill which provided $40 million of the $590 million program has not beenrenewed. A vote in the House to maintain that additional fun- ding failed last month, but Butts said a proposal to restore the funding may be brought before the House again next spring. Once the congressional conference committee reaches a compromise, which it is expected to do late Tuesday, the budget will go back to both houses for approval. Butts said a compromise is almost complete, and says he expects the president to approve it. Top Israeli official ,forced to resign Political bout livens 'U' draft panel By KAREN TENSA A panel discussion on the law that links financial aid to draft registration turned into more of a political rally against militarism, causing one par- ticipant to declare that the promotion of forum had been "misstated and misrepresented." "Draft registration must end now or we will get into another war as wrong and as disastrous as Vietnam - whether its in Central America, the Mideast, or in Southeast Asia," boomed the voice of state Rep. Perry Bullard (D-Ann Arbor) to a crowd of about 70 in the Michigan Union's Pendleton Room. "THE* SOLOMON Amendment," which requires applicants for federal financial aid to sign a statement declaring their compliance with the draft registration law, "has given students the cruel choice of no financial aid or militarism," Bullard said. But Douglas Kahn, a University law school professor who was at the forum to discuss the amendment in terms of its legal validity, told the crowd that he "didn't expect a political pep rally." IN ADDITION to Bullard and Kahn, panelmembers included University Regent Gerald Dunn (D-Garden City), University Financial Aid Director Har- vey Grotrian, Michigan American Civil Liberties Union Director Howard Simon, and Thomas Butts, the Univer- sity's lobbyist in Washington. Each member spoke on his personal and professional opinions of the amen- dment. Bullard said that registration is the first step to the United States entering a war in a Third World nation. "I thought our role as the world's peacekeeper had ended in Vietnam," he said. HE STRESSED the political impor- tance of the amendment and urged the audience to "leave this meeting and march against the draft registration." Simon said the "real discussion of the Solomon Amendment is on the draft and the draft registration." "You must put Solomon in the context of a means of enforcing the registration," he said. "And the See PANEL, Page 2 From AP and UPI JERUSALEM - Finance Minister Yoram Aridor resigned yesterday, hours after he proposed a revolutionary scheme that would have linked the Irraeli economy to the American dollar. Aridor resigned less than an hour into an emergency meeting of Shamir's Cabinet, called to debate his proposal - dubbed the "Dollarization Plan - to make both the dollar and the Israeli shekel legal tender. The shekel was devalued 23 percent Tuesday. ARIDOR said he believed dollarization - his own term - would reduce Israel's triple-digit annual in- flation to the level of inflation of other Western economies. As Aridor explained it, Israel's system of automatically compensating salary earners for inflation had produced "terrible distortions in the economy." Wages and prices were con- stantly pushing each other, up, and "somewhere along the line we have to break this vicious circle." He proposed linking all salaries and debts to the dollar and abolishing com- pensation for inflation. THE PLAN, published first in an Israeli newspaper and headlined around the world, jolted the nation and sparked criticism from both the op- position Labor Party and Shamir's Likud coalition. "What he means is we will become- the 51st state," said Haim Ben- Shachar, a Tel Aviv University economics professor and Labor Party activist. "We will not be able to make any ex- penditures except in dollars. If the Americans don't give them to us we may be faced with unemployment," he said. Aridor had said dollarization could ultimately lead to the dollar becoming legal tender in Israel alongside the shekel, which was introduced in Oc- tober 1980 at a value of 17 cents, and is now worth 1.23 cents. Top candidates considered to replace Aridor, when his resignation takes ef- fect tomorrow were Energy Minister Yitzhak Modai and former Defense Minister Ezer Weizman. The Labor Party said it would call for a no-confidence vote in the Shamir's government next Monday, and would introduce legislation to dissolve the Knesset, or Parliament, and call early elections.

Weeks later a friend of Glendhill's voiced doubts about the creator of the work. "It was only when a friend said he thought it looked like something a chicken had walked over that I began to suspect," Glendhill said.
