XCV, No . 30 Copyright 1984, The Michigan Daily Ann Arbor, Michigan - Wednesday, October 10, 1984 Fifteen Cents Ten Pages Mondale harshly criticizes Rleagan in Detroit By BRUCE JACKSON Special to the Daily DETROIT - Walter Mondale rolled into Detroit yesterday afternoon with some predictably harsh words for his Republican opponent. -In a brief campaign appearance at Detroit's Kennedy Square, Mondale charged that President Reagan and the Republicans pretend that problems don't exist and pointed to the tax issue as an example. THE FORMER vice president scof- fed at Reagan's claim that he would not raise taxes, admitting that if he were elected he would, but they would "be fair to the average American." "In short, America doesn't need a cheerleader, it needs a quarterback," Mondale said. Fresh from an appearance in Cincin- nati, Mondale went on to accuse the Republicans of robbing the graves of such Democratic heroes as Harry Truman, Hubert Humphrey and Eleanor Roosevelt.

SAN DIEGO (AP) - Lou Whitaker opened the first game of the World Series last night by drilling a 3-2 pitch from Mark Thurmond on one bounce to the base of the left-center field fence for a double. Alan Trammell failed to bunt him ahead on a 1-0 pitch, then, at 3-2, Trammell lined a single to left, scoring Whitaker to put Detroit on top 1-0. Trammell then was picked off first base, Thurmond to Steve Garvey to shortstop Garry Templeton applying the tag at second base. It turned out to be a costly mistake because, after Kirk Gibson flied to right for the second out, Lance Parrish and Larry Herndon beat out slow bouncers to Nettles for infield hits. Barbaro Garbey, the Tigers' designated hitter, grounded to Nettles, who beat Parrish to third base for the inning-ending force out. THE PADRES roared back with a pair of runs in the bottom of the inning after Jack Morris got the first two bat- ters, Alan Wiggins on a strikeout and Tony Gwynn on a liner to Gibson in right-center. Garvey then singled to right, Nettles sent him to second with a single to left center and both runners scored on' Terry Kennedy's double into the right field corner. Kennedy took third on the throw home but was stranded there when Bobby Brown grounded out to fir- st. Chet Lemon, the second batter in the top of the fourth, looped a drive to left. Martinez tried for a shoestring catch but the ball bounced past him for a two- base error. Lemon then took third on Evans' grounder to Wiggins and stayed there when Kennedy, the catcher, blocked a Thurmond plitch in the dirt. Marty Castillo then walked, bringing Sherry to the mound again as Dave Dravecky and Andy Hawkins began warming up in the San Diego bullpen. Thurmond escaped when Whitaker flied to left. Morris retired the Padres in order in the bottom of the fourth. Herndon put the Tigers on top 3-2 with a two-out, two-run homer in the fifth in- Associated rress Detroit Tigers Lou Whitaker slides safely across the plate on a first-inning single by teammate Alan Trammell while San Diego catcher Terry Kennedy awaits the late throw in the opening game of the World Series yesterday in San Diego. .M. ..... . . .* . *.*...*'S. .i ... nn: a ..... *.*.... .*. . . ...*.*> ......O*R . *N.O*:.

MSA leaders tentatively reject President Shapiro's blest offer to ngotiate over e code. See sty, page 5. A few of the changes under consideration would make significant modifications to the guidelines for governing student behavior out- side the classroom, but the lion's share are at- tempts to reword controversial parts of the code in order to silence dissent without altering content, said Eric Schnaufer, a member of the Michigan Student Assembly. "WHAT (ADMINISTRATORS) are trying to do is make the code sound better," said Schnaufer, who also chairs No Code, a student group opposed to the code. "Until now there have been many revisions but there has been no substantive movement by the administration to strike from the code the truly objectionable sections," he added. The latest draft of the code, released March 5, drew sharp criticism from students activists and members of the University's Civil Liber- ties Board who said the code could violate students' civil rights. Both groups, along with the American Civil Liberties Union, submitted formal critiques of the draft to the ad- ministration. THE MICHIGAN Student Assembly never formally recommended any changes to the draft in order to show that such guidelines are not needed and to uphold its right to veto them. Under the bylaws of the University's Board of Regents, MSA and the faculty Senate Assembly must approve a code before it can be placed on the University's books. Based on the recommendations which were made, administrators planned to write a revised draft of the code this month. But those plans were put on hold last week when MSA asked administrators to make a proposal for negotiating with MSA student leaders on the code. AT LEAST one of the proposed changes would undercut MSA's efforts to unite student opposition to the code, Schnaufer said. That change would eliminate the code's jurisdiction over fraternities, sororities, co-operatives, and other teams and organizations on campus. Last spring the Panhellenic Association, the governing board of sororities, sent a letter to the University Council and Virginia Nordby, director of Affirmative Action, protesting the code. The letter also said the guidelines un- dermine the Greek system's policy of self- regulation. Leaders of other campus groups also openly opposed the code, which would punish students for acts such as arson, theft, vandalism, assault, and some types of civil disobedience. IN A RECENT interview Nordby said the section extending the code's jurisdiction to campus groups might go because "there is not a felt need right now."

Homecominga festivities mix the old and the newv By MARY BETH DOYLE When members of the Phi Delta Theta and Sigma Alpha Epsilon fraternities take to the mud at 10 a.m. Saturday, they will be sustaining a 50-year-old tradition. When the "bestest, wildest, craziest" Michigan fan is named at the Pep Rally Friday night, he ,or she will be the first Michimaniac ever. THIS MIX of new and old is all part of the festivities planned for the upcoming homecoming weekend. It will be a weekend filled with a variety of events so that it will appeal to as many people as possible, according to Dale Karp, homecoming chairperson for the University Activities Center. New activities this year include the Michimaniac contest, a battle to find the "bestest, wildest, craziest Michigan fan," cording to Rob Markus of UAC. He said contestants will march in the homecoming parade and then perform at the post-parade pep rally. The contest winner will receive a field pass and join the cheerleaders at Satur'day's Michigan- Northwestern football game. Another event which may become a homecoming tradition. is the Delta Royale casino night, a Las Vegas-style evening in the Union Ballroom. There will be a $3 entrance fee, for which participants will receive $2,000 worth of chips. Once a "gambler" makes $500 to add to the original sum, $2,500 worth of chips can be exchanged for a raf- fle ticket. THE GRAND prize in the raffle will be a spring break week for two in Ft. Lauderdale, Fla. Other prizes include dinners and gift certificates. The entire event is perfectly legal, according to Pete Lipson, a member of the Delta Tau Delta fraternity, the sponsor of the casino. He said the proceeds wil be given to the hospital, presuming the event makes money. "We hope to make it a homecoming tradition," he ad- ded. This weekend will feature many events which are already tradition, including the half-century-old Mudbowl football game. It was in 1934 that Phi Delt E. Reed Lowe challenged the SAE house to a football game on homecoming morning. They played the game in spite of a steady rain, and the Mud- bowl tradition was born. FRIDAY NIGHT will feature the traditional parade and pep rally.Zeta Psi fraternity, whose float was the winning en- try in therparade for seven years until they lost last year, is intent on regaining-its crown.
