Jesse Jackson told a cheering crowd of 1,200 at the Michigan Theater yesterday. The run for the Democratic nomination has become "a three-man Election '54 race with two views," Jackson said, making it clear he is one of three can- didates remaining after John Glenn yesterday became the fifth Democrat to drop out of the race. JACKSON'S VISIT was part of a last- minute bus tour across southern Michigan to drum up votes in today's presidential caucuses. With only three candidates left in the contest, Jackson contrasted his plat- form with those of Hart and Mondale. "Hart and Mondale want to raise the military budget," he said. "If you raise the military budget, you're going to in- crease the deficit. If you increase the deficit, you're going to mortgage the future of our children." JACKSON PROPOSED cutting the military budget by reducing American military strength in Japan and Europe. The money saved should be channelled into education and welfare programs, he said. "We cannot keep Japan and Europe on welfare," he said. "Start teaching America. Give our children a chance." Jackson called himself a "man of ac- tion," and pointed to his record as a civil rights activist and his successful effort to free an American pilot cap- tured by Syria last year. "I DIDN'T advocate the right to vote. I marched to ge the right vote," he said. "I went to Syria and got (Navy Lt. Mark) Goodman and brought him back." Turning his criticism to President Ronald Reagan, the Baptist minister attacked Reagan's support for school prayer. "Reagan's not been to church in so long he doesn't know the structure of a prayer," he said. See JACKSON, Page 5 Students say they gotta have Hart' By MARK SMALLWOOD Senator Gary Hart may have said he won't win the Michigan Caucus today, but an informal survey of University students shows he has former Vice President Walter Mondale beat four to one. Of the 60 students questioned this week, 40 percent say they would vote for Hart compared to only 7 percent for Mondale. THE GENERAL consensus among Hart supporters is that the Colorado senator is energetic, bright, and has a better chance of beating President Reagan in November.

The University will become one of several schools across the nation that have recently added sexual orientation to policies which forbid discrimination on the basis of such things as sex, religion, and marital status.

"We've created, literally, a new School of Education," Carl Berger, the school's dean told the regents. THE PLAN brings the education school to the final phase of an arduous budget review process which began over two years ago and will continue for another five. ts mtajor cuts The school was targeted, along with the schools of Art and Natural Resources, for major budget cuts as part of the Univrsity's five-year plan. Devised and directed by Billy Frye, ~the vice president for academic affairs and provost, the plan's goal is to cut from the University's weaker units and channel the saved money into stronger or more vital areas. Of the three schools and colleges that received major cuts, the education school's 40 percent reduction was the largest. See EDUCATION, Page 5 Prof shuns the blacklist blues By TRACEY MILLER Being blacklisted by the U.S. gover- nment just isn't the harrowing ex- perience it used to be. Take Samuel Eldersveld, a Univer- sity political science professor, as an example. ELDERSVELD found out Thursday that he was among 100 citizens on a government blacklist published by The New York Times this week. But he hasn't exactly experienced the social ostracism which the blacklists of the 1950's cast on their victims. In fact, he looks on the experience in a rather tongue-and-cheek manner. "My collegues wondered if I had Partie rs forget 'It's a distinction I shall cherish for some time.' -Prof. Samuel Eldersveld bargained my way on to the list, or if I had simply offered an interest-free loan to Edwin Meese, and tried to collect," he said in an interview yesterday. THE BLACKLIST, which contains the names of assorted Democrats, liberals, and anti-establishment leaders from '60s poet-guru Allen Gin- sberg to presidential candidate Gary Hart, caused a minor stir in media and government circles when The New York Times revealed the names in a copywritten story Thursday. The citizens on the list are prohibited See 'U', page 2 .......... ........... . .. . . ...... .... St. Pat 's By SUE BARTO Green eggs, green carnations, green apparel, and that queasy green feeling from guzzling green brewskies is what St. Patrick's Day means to most University students-Irish or not. But if students knew more about the real meaning of St. Patricks Day the last thing they'd be doing is chugging green beer. "EXCESSIVE drinking is completely foreign to St. Patrick's purpose," ex- plains Father Joseph Immel of St. Patrick's Church in Northfield Town- ship. "(The holiday) is more of a glut- tonous thing. "A lot of people who aren't Irish take advantage of the holiday as a license to get drunk. It's too bad." In Ireland, March 17 is a major religious holiday on which families at- tend church to celebrate St. Patrick's mission of converting pagans to Christianity during the fifth century, Immel explained. "I DON'T think we honor a Saint by getting drunk," he added. See STUDENTS, Page 5 purpose NIT-wits Daily Photo by CAROL L.

This one belonged to James Baker III, Bull in-a book shop JOE CHRISTMAN called it "a grand opening" for his new bookstore. On Thursday, just three days after he opened Dog-Eared Books, a runaway bull crashed through his plate glass window, lumbered through the store and left the same way. "I looked up to see what was going on and here comes a bull right around one of my magazine racks," Christman said. "Two guys followed him in. One of them told me to grab the rope. I said " 'Nothin' doin.' " The bull, a runaway from an exhibit at the Hocking County doesn't think small. "Our ultimate goal is to bring aar- dvarks in and replace all dogs and cats as household pets," said Byrne, founder of the National Association for the Ad- vancement of Aardvarks. "Dogs bite and aardvarks can't do that. If you have a termite problem, they'll take care of that without costly exterminators," he said. And when it comes to aardvarks, nothing is sacred. "A few years down the road, we'd even like to replace the bald eagle as the national symbol." The club has about 700 card-carrying members, about 50 of them in Wisconsin where Byrne lives.
