Last November, the group pulled off a 48-hour blockade of Electrical and Computer. Engineering Prof. Tom Senior's radiation laboratory. The group had planned to shut down the lab of Electrical and Computer Engineering Prof. Theodore Birdsall, who is working on who is working on $400,000 worth of classified and non-classified projects for the Office of Naval Research. PSN MEMBERS who are demanding an end to "all military research" at the University, first asked Shapiro to take a stand on whether the University should restrict non-classified research, which makes up the majority of Pentagon- sponsored research on campus. Over the summer, the regents rejec- tged 7-1 a set of guidelines that would prohibit non-classifed research which would "permanently incapacitate human beings." Shapiro said that although he was bound to follow the regents' rejection of the guidelines, the administration had asked the regents to approve the guidelines before the vote. PSN IS trying to extend guidelines which currently restrict classified research projects to cover non- classified projects as well, but Shapiro pleaded ignorance when asked if the ex- tension would force the University to close down certain projects. Later Shapiro said, "I don't have the capacity to keep up with 8,000 or 9,000 research projects on campus." PSN member David Buchen, an LSA freshman, asked Shapiro if Birdsall's projects violate the research guidelines 's office "because of the 'direct applications' to anti-submarine warfare.'' SHAPIRO SAID he didn't know the details of Birdsall's research, but said *he is satisfied it conforms to the guidelines. The group left the office at 11:15. An hour-and-a-half later, four PSN members returned to Birdsall's lab dressed in trench coats and dark glasses, mocking the security placed on Birdsall's research. Birdsall stepped out of his office to ask them to leave, and they initially refused, but left when Birdsall called University security of- ficers. . BIRDSALL, WHO calls himself "a strong believer in a strong national defense," denied that his research is being used for anti-submarine warfare. He admitted that the Department of Defense could use his work on'ocean circulation and the propagation of sound underwater to improve their tracking of submarines, but said the connection is "indirect." - "The work we do will help the national defense, the Weather Service and the fishermen, but none of the others are willing to pay for it," he said. He said he is sympathetic to PSN's concerns about the nuclear arms build- up, but said radical actions like lab sit- ins on campus are an inappropriate way of stopping it. "I think they're frustrated because they can't do anything about the (nuclear arms race)," he said. "I think they're totally wrong in the way they're going about it though. I'm frustrated too, but I don't think that has anything to do with my work," he said. IN BRIEF Compiled from Associated Press and United Press International reports Anti-tax recall attempt falls short LANSING - Secretary of State Richard Austin ruled yesterday foes qf. State Sen. Patrick McCollough failed to file enough valid signatures to forme Michigan's third anti-tax recall vote. Austin said after duplicate and flawed signatures were thrown out,, petitions filed last Dec. 29 against the Dearborn Democrat were 716 signatures short of the 22,812 needed. A spokesman for the Recall McCollough Committee said the decision will be appealed. Austin said 2,533 signatures were ruled invalid because they appeared, more than once and another 2,963 were thrown out because the signers were, not registered voters in the district or there were other irregularities. At a news conference, Austin and Elections Director Chris Thomas said, the attorney general's office is looking into allegations that there were some, forged signatures on the petitions. GOP picks Senate leadership LANSING - Senate Republicans yesterday named Sen. John Engler qf Mount Pleasant as majority leadej, the Senate's top post previously held by.; a Democrat. Republicans met yesterday for the first time since special elections { Tuesday gave the GOP a 20-18 edge and control of the Senate for the first; time in nine years. The 18 senators, as well as two who were elected Tuesday to replace Democrats recalled by anti-tax forces in Macomb and Oakland counties, met to determine leadership positions. Control of the Senate means the party will be able to control committees, set senators' staff budgets and appoint a Senate secretary. Democrats in the Senate also could reorganize their leadership posts. Sen. William Faust of Westland, Democratic leader for seven years, will be for- ced to step down as majority leader. Lebanese civil war resumes BEIRUT, Lebanon - Charging behind a massive mortar and rocket barrage, Shiite Moslem militiamen overran key Lebanese army positions yesterday on a highway entrance to Beirut. It was the first ground assault of the civil war since Christmas. Lebanese police said dozens of people were killed or hurt in the fighting. Spokesman for Amal, Lebanon's largest Shiite militia, said at least one of its fighters was killed and 25 were wounded. There was'no word on Lebanese army casualties. The army acknowledged the fall of St. Michael Church and two adjacent checkpoints that control the Galerie Semaan gateway to Beirut's southern I 1 j zsuui s. in rmycomuniue aga government troops were countera[- tacking in a bid to regain control of the area in Moslem west Beirut.

Marine spokesman said their base was untouched by yesterday's hostilities.

LOUIS - Workers at a restaurant supply firm began loading thousan- ds of radioactive table pedestals onto trucks yesterday so they could'be returned to Mexico, company officials said. David Lefkowith, vice president of Falcon Products Co. in sububan Olivette which manufactured the pedestals, said the loading started after the company was given the go-ahead by the U.S. Department of Transpo tation and the Nuclear Regulatory Commission. Lefkowith said he did not know how long it would take to load the cast iron pieces on tractor-trailer rigs for the return trip. The company has found 17,000 contaminated pieces so far, he said, and more may be discovered. "It's tough to load these things," he said, adding the company had to test each piece for 30 seconds to determine if it was radioactive. "We will keep them in a tightly secured area tonight," Lefkowith said: "We will do everything we are required to do." challenger prepared for launch CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. - Challenger was readied yesterday for today's breakfast-time launch of NASA's 10th shuttle mission, called the "Buck Rogers flight" for its test of a jet-pack to propel free-flying astronauts across space. Weather was "super" and the five astronauts "ready to have a good time," officials said. "I imagine when I go out there, the heart rate will go up a little bit, the view will be fantastic," said mission specialist Robert Stewart. Liftoff was scheduled for 8 a.m. EST and shuttle program manager Glynn Lunney said of the crew: "They've been in training for some time for this flight, they feel comfortable with it, they'll all be glad to get on orbit." The. business end of the eight-day flight, delivery of two satellites, was to come early in the mission, but most interest focused on next Tuesday and Thursday when Bruce McCandless and Stewart are to strap themselves into; chair-like "Manned Maneuvering Units" and become the first humans to flit into space without a lifeline. .4 Friday, February 3, 1984 Vol. XCIV-No. 103 (ISSN 0745-967X) The Michigan Daily is edited and managed by students at The University of Michigan.
