XCIV-No. 127 Copyright 1984, The Michigan Daily Ann Arbor, Michigan -Sunday, March 11, 1984 Fifteen Cents Eight Pages Classified research panel votes for projects BY PETE WILLIAMS The University's Research Policies ommittee approved Friday two con- troversial classified research projects of Electrical and Computer Engineering Prof. Theodore Birdsall. The fifteen-member faculty and student panel voted 8-4 in a closed meeting that Birdsall's Pentagon-spon- sored research does not violate the University's 1972 classified research guidelines which specify that the niversity cannot conduct any resear- with "...any specific purpose of which is to destroy human life or to in- capacitate human beings." CONTROVERSY over Birdsall's project arose after Progressive Student Network member Erica Freedman, an LSA junior and a member of another University committee which reviews classifiedresearch, rejected the projects because of possible ap- plications to anti-submarine warfare. ollowing Freedman's objection, the projects were sent to the RPC. "He is helping us to wage a first- strike nuclear war," said Freedman af- ter she made her decision. See RPC, Page 5 Wildcats upset Wolverines, 5452 By JIM DWORMAN Special to the Daily EVANSTON - Northwestern's Jdhn Peterson sank two free throws with four seconds left in overtime last night. He also might have sank Michigan's NCAA tournament chances. The 6-9 junior's two foul shots gave the Wildcats a 54-52 victory over the Wolverines. PETERSON WENT to the line after Michigan's Roy Tarpley fouled him while going for a rebound. Wolverine coach Bill Frieder attempted to rattle Peterson by making him wait through a time out, but the Wildcat swished his first shot and after a few bounces on the rim, the second fell. Michigan's Eric Turner missed a 17- foot jumper at the buzzer. THE LOSS severely damaged Michigan's opportunity to particippte in college basketball's national chm- pionship tournament. A victory would have virtually assured the Wolverine a tournament berth. Now their fate is un- sure. The NCAA Selection Committee will announce the tournament field this af- ternoon. If the committee leaves out Michigan, the Wolverines probably will play in the National Invitation Tour- nament.} Regulation play ended with the game tied at 50. Northwestern took a 52-50 lead at 2:40 on a pair of Peterson free throws but the Wolverines quickly tied the game on a jumper by Antoine Joubert. Michigan regained possession when Wildcat forward Andre Goode shot an airball. THE WOLVERINES held the ball for the last shot and got off a good one. But Leslie Rockymore's open jumper from the free throw line bounced off the rim. Michigan also had a chance to win the game in regulation. The Wolverines stalled for the final shot but the strategy failed when Turner missed a 15-foot basesline jumper. Art Aaron led Northwestern with 20 points, 13 in the second half. Rich Rellford, Joubert and Turner all at- tempted to guard the 6-8 senior but he used his height well and repeatedly hit jumpers over his shorter opponents. PETERSON FINISHED with 10 points. Tarpley scored 17 points for the Wolverines, while Joubert contributed 14. Michigan's 26-percent second half shooting, combined with Aaron's 6-for- 10 post-intermission field goal shooting, allowed Northwestern to come back. The Wildcats took the lead from the Wolverines, 35-34, with 12:17 left in Frieder .looks for NCAA bid regulation. Neither team held more than a two-point advantage afterwards. Michigan pulled out to a 25-19 halftime lead on the strength of ten Tarpley points. The sophomore center sank a variety of midrange jumpers, several while tightly guarded. The Wolverines led the whole way, they shot .647, but could not gain a significant advantage as both teams patiently worked their offenses. Joubert and Rellford each scored six before the intermission. The Judge en- ded the half with a 19-foot turnaround jumper that must have reminded Frieder of the plays he saw while recruiting the 6-5 freshman.

Planning prevents graduation nightmares By DAN GRANTHAM It's been four hard years, but now the time has finally come to graduate - or so you thought. The worst was supposedly over after that last scrumptious bite of creamed chicken a la dor- mitory and final eight a.m. lecture on primates. BUT NOW, with mom and dad on the way to see their precious child don cap and gown on the very same dais as Walter Cronkite, the bomb falls. No counselor ever mentioned anything about filing for a diploma. So you didn't. So now you have this silly hat and nowhere to go. There's more. That one class on primates didn't fulfill the natural science requirement and-lucky you wins a summer vacation in Ann Arbor. SUCH nightmares can be avoided, however, by following a few simple steps. First, file diploma applications and concen- tration release forms in Room 1221 Angell Hall. "You have to file for graduation, it doesn't happen automatically," says Virginia Reese, associate director of academic counseling. "We occasionally get students who don't realize there is more to graduation than getting their cap and gown." Concentration forms must be signed by a counselor who will check if students have com- pleted the department requirements, said Reese. "THERE ARE a lot of requirements and some are very simple, but because there are quite a number, it's easy to get mixed up Reese said. But getting a counseling appointment can be a difficult feat - especially for students who wait until-the last minute. At this time during the year the counseling office is crowded with a mix of graduating seniors and students in- terested in early registration, Reese said. After the forms are submitted, student records are audited to check again if all requirements have been met, said Nancy Parliament, LSA chief auditor. STUDENTS should apply for an audit the semester before they wish to graduate so that any incomplete requirements can be filled during their last term, Parliament said. For students who aren't that efficient, all hope isn't lost. Release forms can be submitted to the Audit Office until the last day of classes to receive a diploma, Parliament said. Parliament said her office usually gets busier as it gets closer to graduation, since many students file later in the term. "We're swamped from January on," she said. BUT ALL students must pass a final audit in May after which they will receive their diplomas by mail in late June, she said. After the necessary forms have been filed, students still must contend with cap and gown rentals and graduation announcements. Students can rent caps and gowns from the University Cellar for a $15 deposit, said Prudence Byas, University Cellar cap and gown, coordinator. THE, DEADLINE for ordering caps and gowns is March 24. After that students must pay a $3 late charge, Byas said.

A University student can attest to that since he fell prey to an age- old hustling game called Pigeon Drop. Thursday morning a student was stopped by a well-dressed man in his 30s who -1-... 1111h o Afrinn nat n f he t cF nnwri gave to the man. After 'pocketing the money, the man showed the student a wad of money which he apparently placed in a handkerchief before giving it to him. The man walked away, the student unrolled the handkerchief, and found nothing but a wad of newspapers inside. According to Sgt. Tinsey of the Ann Arbor Police Department, the student fell for an "age-old game-they switched the bun- dle." He added that it "seems to work because people are vulnerable when they think they can get something for nothing."' pening on 'As the World Turns.' That's what a large portion of the calls were about," said Jim Cuzo, KDLH program director. One of the serial's manin plot lines came to a head Thursday. But when viewers tuned in to see Craig Montgomery forced to confront his vil ways, they found Roseau battling Edina. The station tried to make amends by running a 30-second segment o; the show and a plot synopsis on the evening news Thursday and Friday. "I tried to get all the programs on at one tine or another," Cuzzo said. But lawyers for Proctor & Gamble, which sponsors "As the World Turns," would allow only a 30-second physical and psychological dependence, and discriminating against the poor."
