The 56-year-old supreme court judge took the oath of office in a 10-minute ceremony in Parliament presided over by Ar- chbishop Seraphim of Athens, Orthodox primate of Greece, and six black-robed priests. "OUR COUNTRY can and will go forward with labor and cooperation from all Greeks without exception," Sartzetakis said after becoming head of state. Sartzetakis was backed for the presidency by the ruling Socialists and was the only candidate in the election by Parliament. He won 180 votes on Friday, the minimum required for election on the third and final round of balloting by the 300-seat Parliament. Sartzetakis succeeds Constantine Caramanlis, who resigned as president earlier this monthafter being unexpec- tedly rejected by the Socialists as a "consensus" candidate for a second five-year term. LAWMAKERS from Premier Andreas Papandreou's Socialist party applauded and shouted "He is worthy!" as beeswax candles and incense burned on the Parliament's dais. Deputies from the small pro-Soviet Greek Communist Par- ty, who joined forces with the Socialists to elect Sartzetakis in Friday's final parliamentary ballot, also attended the swearing-in. The opposition New Democracy Party said the election was invalid because the winning margin required the vote of Soc- See SARTZETAKIS, Page 3 YOUNGEST TO GET HEAR T TRANSPLANT Baby L By GREG MEENAHAN Baby Laura, the world's youngest heart transplant recipient, was released from University Hospital yesterday almost five months after her operation. The 11 month-old baby had been scheduled to leave the hospital earlier in the week, but the move was delayed two days because she came down with a flu infection. SHE WILL continue to receive physiotherapy - gentle tapping on the chest to keep secretions from building up - at home from her mother. "Laura's mother has demonstrated tura goe to us the test physiotherapy she will be performing at home. She has been working with us for two weeks," said Martha Walker, who was one of the nurses to care for Laura. The baby's mother has been living at the hospital in order to learn the nur- ses' daily routine, according to Louise Callow, another of the nurses that cared for Laura. THE REJECTION fighting drugs will also be given to the baby by her mother. A side effect of the drugs is to reduce the body's ability to fight infection. Because of this added risk, Laura will be seeing few visitors, Walker said. "The family just wants to be alone home anyway. They just want some privacy,"'she said. Doctors said Laura was in good con- dition, but they are watching her carefully. "She does have a paralyzed left diaphragm, but there is a good chance that this problem may abate as' she grows," said Dennis Crowley, a pediatric cardiologist, in a press release. The paralyzed diaphragm, Callow said, is the result of one of the operations in which a nerve might have been stretched or damaged slightly. There is only a slight chance that the nerve is completely damaged. Daily Photo by DAN HABIB Youngest ByERIC MATTSON At 34. Republican Regent Neal Nielsen is the youngest member of the University's top policy-making board. But whether that translates into a better understanding of student interests depends on whom you talk to. Veronica Smith (R-Grosse Ile), who Pro file- was elected with Nielsen to the Board of Regents last November, believes that because her running mate has been out o school for only 10 years, he can communicate with students more teasily. regent sees BUT ERIC Schnaufer, the law school's representative to the Michigan Student Assembly, doubts Nielsen's commitment to students. "I think he works under the assum- ption that the administration and the students have the same interests," he said. This isn't always the case, said Schnaufer, who has been involved in the student-administration conflict over the code for non-academic conduct. In fact, the University alumnus and Brighton attorney has flip-flopped on the conduct code since he came into of- fice. During his campaign he opposed the code because he thought the court systems were able to address student discipline problems. As a former assistant prosecutor in Livingston County, Nielsen said, "I thought the civil and criminal system were both sides enough." BUT NOW, after talking to Univer- sity administrators, Nielsen said he sees the problem from the University's point of view. Even though a student may be prosecuted and convicted in court, he cannot be kicked off campus under current policies. Nielsen thinks that should be changed. At the same time, Nielsen takes side with students who see the "code" as a dirty word. "I probably wouldn't want it, either," he said. "I think that (students') views should be listened to," he said. "It's their in- stitution, too." NIELSEN listens to students, but he seems reluctant to go beyond soliciting their opinions.

Amid the lines of people waiting to get in and the pickets of the fired projectionists, a woman stepped out of the car and rolled out a red carpet. "You can't directly support war in Central America, or personally buy an MX, but you can help indirectly," she said, greeting the crowd. TURNING back to the car, she proceeded to welcome Rich and Wealthy Kerasotes, who stepped from the automobile. The couple thanked everyone for buying tickets to their theatre and contributing to their for- tune. The couple really doesn't own the theater. They along with about 10 other members of a local acting group came to protest the firing of the local theater projectionists when the Kerasotes See "REAGAN," Page 2 Daily Photo by DARRIAN SMITH "Reagan," a member of a local theater group called the Pinkertons, welcomes patrons of State Theatre last night.

Future of ISA panel uncertain By SEAN JACKSON Though student involvement in University decision-making is limited, the possible elimination of the LSA Joint Student Faculty Policy Committee could make it even more un- common. The committee, the highest-level panel in the college on which students sit, will be a topic of discussion at next- Monday's LSA faculty meeting. Philosophy Prof. Donald Munro proposed . the discussion because the LSA nominating committee encountered a "certain amount of cynicism" about the student-faculty body and had difficulty enlisting enough faculty nominations. "THE MISSION of the committee is very un- clear and very few faculty had any idea what it does," said history Prof. Terrence McDonald, who is the committee member in charge of soliciting candidates for the board. The purpose of the six faculty, six student committee is "to investigate the educational health of the college through a combined force of students and faculty," said co-chairman Louis Orlin, a Near Eastern studies professor. The committee is the only mode through which students can introduce proposals to the faculty. Last year the committee proposed a set of faculty guidelines which was rejected by in- structors. The proposal called for faculty members to be available during office hours, hand out syallbi and class outlines at the begin- ning of the course, ad critique all work that students hand in. This term the committee has researched cheating on campus and will present its report and recommendations at the April 8 faculty meeting. THE PROBLEM, however, is that no one seems to know who the JFSPC is or what it does. Those were the . problems the LSA nominating committee said it faced in trying to get faculty members to run for the position on the board. According to McDonald there were only 18 nominees for the faculty-student board, about half as many as 'the other boards. Faculty members could nominate themselves or be nominated by other faculty. The nominating committee also contacted every department chairman and program director requesting that nominees be recommended. "There was very little interest in nominating faculty or themselves for the office," said Mc- Donald. Of the 18 people nominated, only 6 people agreed to run, the minimum needed to fill the three positions. "If we had not gotten six people, I don't know what we would have done," he added. "THE MAJORITY of those who said "no" had absolutely no understanding of what the committee did," McDonald said. "It's totally unclear what the mission or the power to acco- See JOINT, Page 3 ::..... ...:...:....a:.: ::::::.r.-:::::.vr:. ::.: .'.v:-.vwy::,-.:.xc...,!:. :. :c::r.:".v .. .. ..4 .r:l.{JWfn'K".'!YA{i'X f1 m ta c 7# £3 "e~~ ,.,.. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .. . .:. .s~t, .n 'a&s. . 1e~3:n.:s ' *.sSS.:.i,: ' ~° :: ?A t" ?da. cte .m: ...,. :r. ~;? .. &i ;,. a~'3 3 ... ? .s °. sa. -TODAY Hamburger Helper HAMBURGER chain has cooked up an idea that goes far beyond a new sandwich or shake-a six-armed robot that prepares meals to order, takes money and makes change, even sweeps the floor .._i .i...«, .,ttr.
