The Michigan Daily - Tuesday, November 15, 1983 -- Page 3 LSA-SG elections draw increased voter turnout By CAROLINE MULLER Voter turnout in yesterday's LSA Student Government elections jumped 63 percent over last year's first-day total with an estimated 1,200 students hitting the polls. LSA-SG elections director David Surovell said the total does not include those ballots cast at the Undergraduate Library, and that the numbers show a big improvement over last year's 735- vote first day. "I THINK more people voted in the election because the campaign was more intense," said Surovell, who ser- ved as an LSA Council member two years ago. "The focus (this year) was, more on rivalry than on issues." Despite the increase over last year's turnout, less than 10 percent of LSA students voted yesterday, renewing an- nual complaints of student apathy and persistent claims that a small minority elects the LSA-SG. "I am not voting because I don't know any persons involved," said LSA sophomore Debbie Crocker. "It's better not to vote than to vote for the wrong person." But Glenn Clark, also an LSA sophomore, disagreed. "You can't complain about who gets elected, or how they're running the government, unless you vote," Clark said. Still other students said they were un- familiar with the issues or the election procedures. When asked if he would vote, one LSA junior replied, "I don't know, when is it?" Surovell called this year's election "unfair play" pointing to such cam- paign excesses as a car advertising the elections parked in the Diag and can- didates handing out free popcorn and bumper stickers. "It's an American election," Surovell said, "a lively, involved campaign full of issues, but filled more with per- sonality. The problem is that people listen to the rhetoric and remember it. The issues somehow get lost." Voting will continue today at South and East Quads and Bursley Hall from 4:30 to 6:30 p.m.; inthebUGLfromB3:30 to 7 p.m.; in the Fishbowl and at MLB from 8:45 a.m. to 3:15 p.m.; and at the Union from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. -HAPPENINGS Highlight The Student-Alumni Council is having an open house at 4 p.m. in the Alum- ni Center.

But yesterday's decision, carried in an unsigned opinion, said no interpretation of Title IX was necessary in the case because the university has decided not to let Iron Arrow on campus unless women become eligible formembership. The opinion was joined in by Chief Justice Warren Burger and Justices Byron White, Lewis Powell, William Rehnquist and Sandra Day O'Connor.

Under Rep. Thomas Hickner's bill, a corporation could not exceed the current maximum contribution of C ENTRODUCIANG TH E N UVISION COLLEGE SPECIAL. $40,000 on regardless any single ballot issue, of how many committees were involved. A corporation could spend an unlimited amount of money as in- dependent expenditures in its own, name. Hickner's bill was introduced in response to the 1982 election, which sa three major utilities spend more than $6.2 million in support of one ballot measure and opposition to two others. It would not limit the total amount a corporation could spend on ballot cam- paigns, but it would require that con- tributions of that magnitude be made in the firm's own name.
