Ford opens $160 milore --- I r v From AP and UPI BEIRUT, Lebanon - Snipers killed one U.S. Marine and seriously injured another yesterday. Marine officials say the attack may be part of a campaign to provoke the peacekeeping forces into combat. The death brought to six the number of Marines killed in Lebanon. Fifty-one have been wounded. TWO MARINE positions came under grenade and small arms fire, and sniping on the eastern perimeter of the 1,600-man Marine encampment at Beirut's international airport prompted a "condition one" alert for line troops. Marine spokesman Maj. Robert Jor- dan said sniping incidents since Sunday suggest a pattern of "individuals trying to harass the Marines and trying to draw them into some kind of confron- tation." The snipers fired on a jeep carrying two Marines back from a bomb disposal call yesterday morning, mortally wounding Sgt. Allen Soifert. Staff Sgt. Dennis Allston, 25, of Philadelphia, Pa., was unhurt but he said his partner was shot in the chest and trapped under the jeep when it overturned - "caught in a cross-fire of two weapons." Allston was thrown free. The two Marines came under sniper fire while driving through Shiite Moslem slums near their: Beirut airport headquarters. IN WASHINGTON, deputy White House press secretary Peter Roussel said President Reagan spoke by telephone yesterday with Soifert's mother and stepfather, Joan and Abraham Roemer of Nashua, N.H. and "expressed his deep reget."

The "Campaign for Michigan" is the third and final phase of the five-year plan to make the University "smaller but better." FORD, SERVING as national honorary chairman for the campaign, spoke to about 550 volunteers and members of the University community at a Crisler, Arena luncheon. "As an alumnus, I hope I can go around the country and enthusiastically--and emphatically convince people that what they give in dollars is a great in- vestment in this country," he said at a press con- ference preceeding the luncheon. Im I, 7 "The University of Michigan is one of the few great universities equipped to help generate the creative resurgence of our culture and our economy," he told the group. ALTHOUGH THE University ranks among the nation's top schools receiving individual and cor- porate donations, officials hope the campaign will ultimately raise the level of regular annual private gifts. The campaign, the largest of its kind for public in- stitutions, is in part a response to decling state aid to public schools, which has forced tuition to increase rapidly in the past few years. University President Harold Shapiro said the cam- paign will have a significant impact on tuition, and that tuition could conceivably decrease, but that depends more on the level of state support. "QUALITY PUBLIC education is going to have to be more creative in garnering support," said Shapiro. "We feel perfectly up to the challenge .. . (and) hope to be in a leadership position." Gov. James Blanchard, who also addressed the crowd, said he was supportive of the campaign, for the benefit of both the University and the state. "Higher education, particularly public, is really at a critical turning point," he said. "We've begun - and only just begun - to reverse the trend." Regent Robert Nederlander, the campaign chair- man, said it has been "sobering" to watch the burden of increasing costs fall on students, but warned that the campaign will not make up for recent declining state support.

"Nevertheless, the fact that the cease-fire is holding, by and large and the national reconciliation process is moving forward, indicates that the MNF (Multinational peace-keeping force) is exerting a positive influence in moving Lebanon toward stability, security and eventually peace," Reagan said. The wounded Marine - who was not identified - underwent surgery late yesterday aboard the Iwo Jima off the coast of Beirut. His condition was described as "guarded."
