But the Hawkeyes cer- tainly did everything else against the Wolverines. Iowa dominated the offensive game throughout the contest and got four field goals from Rob Houghtlin to pull out a 12-10 victory. In fact, the Hawkeyes were in control so much that it seemed unusual that the Wolverines led most of the way and that Houghtlin's 29-yarder with no time left was the difference. ORIGINALLY, the game had been touted as a bitter battle between Iowa's top-ranked offense and Michigan's nearly invincible defense. But in the end it was Michigan's lack of punch on offense that told the story. Like in its first five contests, the Michigan defense held tough deep in its own territory, not allowing the Hawkeyes to penetrate the endzone. The Wolverines still have not allowed a touchdown in ten straight quarters. However, the Michigan offense sagged, and didn't hold on to the ball long enough, allowing Iowa the time and opportunity to gain 422 yards and its four field goals. "I think in this ball game our defen- se once again played well," said Michigan head coach Bo Schem- bechler. "But our offense failed to control the ball. Iowa did a good job of always maintaining field position, I think the biggest problem for us was offensively we never got good field position." THE HAWKS, led by quarterback Chuck Long and running back Ronnie Harmon, mounted a well-balanced at- tack on the Wolverines and drove deep into the Michigan zone six times while hanging on to the ball for 38:05. Earlier in the season the Wolverines had specialized in shutting down their opponents' big backs, but Harmon was able to terrorize Michigan in two ways - by rushing for 120 yards and by cat- ching five passes for another 60 markers. Long also had a big day, completing 26 of 39 aerials for 297 yards as Harmon, Long's favorite targets were wide receivers Bill Happel and Scott Helverson, who combined for 15 catches worth 179 yards. Most of those catches came on short out pat- terns along the sidelines. "WE NOTICED a tendency on their defense," said Helverson, explaining why Iowa was successful on the sideline routes. "We noticed that when we would send someone deep out there, the cornerback would go with him. So we tried to get another man in behind him and it worked." "We ran a lot of zones today and they tried to find the weaknesses in them," said Michigan safety Tony Gant. "When you have the precision routes their receivers were running and a quarterback like Chuck Long, you're going to find those weaknesses." "With Long and Harmon on the same team, it makes it extremely dif- ficult to shut them down," said Schembechler. "We can and did keep them out of the endzone, but you can't shut them down." LONG ALSO got quite a bit of time to throw as his line kept Michigan's pass rush, which usually is heavy, in check for most of the game. "This most definitely is the toughest line we've faced yet," noted defensive tackle Mark Messner. NONETHELESS, while Iowa moved the ball well and was within striking distance of the endzone several times, it never was able to punch it over for a score due to variety of circumstance. First and Regents defend Star Wars resolution By KERY MURAKAMI Three members of the University's Board of Regents said Friday that they regretted having passed last month's resolution on 'Star Wars' research on campus without having discussed it more thoroughly. The regents, however, defended the content of the resolution, saying that it merely restates the University's current stance that it is up to the in- dividual researcher to decide what projects to undertake. They denied it was an endorsement of President Reagan's controversial strategic Defense Initiative. OPPONENTS of SDI say that the resolution is an endorsement because it "encourages" those who want to do the research, and have complained that they were not allowed to give more input before the resolution was passed. Yesterday, Regent Sarah Power (D-Ann Arbor) said the lack of discussions "troubled" her. Quoting from last month's speech by Billy Frye, the University's vice president for academic affairs, Power said that in order to have harmony within the academic community, there must be mutual respect for all points of view. IN ADDITON, Power said there must be time and an orderly process See REGENTS, Page 6 tidwes I Daily Photo by BRAD MILLS Iowa placekicker Rob Houg.iin and holder Mark Vlasic display the thrill of victory as Houghtlin connects on Saturday's game-winning, 29-yard field goal against Michigan. Despite nagging leg injuries, Houghtlin made four of his five field-goal attempts. foremost was the Michigan defense, which held the Iowa offense twice in- side its own 25 and forced field goal at- tempts, one of which was missed. Linebacker Dieter Heren killed another Hawkeye drive late in the third quarter when he intercepted a Long pass at the Michigan six. The Hawkeyes got another blow from the officials, who may have cost them a touchdown on their first drive of the second quarter when Helverson was ruled out of bounds on a reception See IOWA, Page 8 'U'hosts A .:.......}..................::"t"v~::v:::.::vv::::rr.::::..........:.:.:...::.::.::v {}}}}i ii:iii}":}:: ..... .. .. .. .. ............ .t:.y ; .}y.:}v:::;n....... .........v:}":::' w:. ~~~~..........................r.......t.............:......................................... .............. .r......n...........................v:"::vr::.y" v :.:.:.:: ..... .....r:.}."}w..%::::::'.{"..::.v:. . . . . .... .. ........... ..... .. ..t... r:.:.................:::x...... :"::v:.. ...............'.....',........ . . . . . . . . . ............ . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . ....n....,............................. .......t.............,.......................r..................... v.:..... .... . .... Protest, conference target AIDS By MARK WEISBROT About 70 protesters rallied in front of the Federal Building on Liberty Street Saturday afternoon to demand increased funding for AIDS research, as well as educational programs for the public and social support services for victims of the disease. "AIDShas become surrounded by political and social controversy which has accompanied few other diseases," said Dr. Lorna Rodriguez, addressing the protesters. "This controversy is not caused by the disease itself. The controversy is the result of the political and social position of the group of people which happened to become AIDS' first victims in the U.S. Because of the association between AIDS and homosexuality in the public mind, AIDS has come to be thought as of a 'gay disease.' " RODRIGUEZ assailed this notion as "misleading and dangerous' because it leads to the idea that gays are to blame for AIDS, or that heterosexuals are not as susceptible to the disease. A sign held by one of the protesters said "AIDS: Attack the disease, not gay men and lesbians." Protesters chanted "Money for health care, not for warfare" and "3,5,7,9, havings AIDS is not a crime.' According to Rodriguez, ithe AIDS, virus is believed to have originated in the green monkey in Africa. It was transmitted through monkey bites to the heterosexual human population there, affecting about equal numbers of men and women. From Africa, AIDS apparently spread to Haiti, and may have spread to the U.S. via tourists, she said. Here, it first spread among homosexual and bisexual men and intravenous drug users before en- tering the heterosexual population. RODRIGUEZ called for the establishment of a patient advocacy system such as that which exists for dialysis patients and abused children. Such a system is needed, she said, to enforce the legal rights of people with See PROTESTERS, Page 2 Housing Conference By JOSEPH PIGOTT Housing officials and politicians from over 10 Michigan cities and several Midwestern states came to the University this weekend to ex- change ideas on how to make housing more affordable to lower and middle- income households. Activities kicked off Friday evening in the MLB with the showing of Poletown lives, a film about a poor Detroit neighborhood's fight for their homes with General Motors Corp. The conference concluded Saturday after daylong housing workshops and a dinner reception. ORGANIZED by the Community Housing Coalition, the National Tenants Union and the National Housing Institute, conference speakers included state Rep. Perry Bullard (D-Ann Arbor), Ann Arbor Mayor Ed Pierce, City Councilman Lowell Peterson, and Don Campbell - U.S. Sen. Don Riegle's represen- tative from the Senate subcommittee on Housing and Urban Affairs. Peterson (D-First Ward) said this city's biggest problem in providing low income housing is giving evidence that there is a need for it. v.v } . v..... . .. n..1 .......,...... .. .. -..... .. .. ,"' t+i{:};4:"}:::":}:::.v}:"}}5i:: "}i? :.::::::::::: v-:i :{i4}:"}}}:"}:{{"}}i:"i}:": }Y:i}i}}:0: }}::{.}: '"i?::"::"}}}i.:v??:>: }C.::}::}i.}}..::.:::.:::::::'":' "}}}}":.::.}}}:.}:"::y::i"}}::}":.:x::::::.}} :.v::.v:::.}} :. ..t }, ...:....at.. .. .... ........... :::.:":: ,:::,:....:::::}...... ,...::::::::...t...t...............t.:::::: }::.:r:.t..........t::" :::":::" :":. ::: r :. ::::::. ::: "::: " :. ::::::" :::"--.......}::". _ "::":. :.":. ::. ::.;.} ":. ::::::::::" :.:::::::::::.v:.:t.:::.::. . .... t,. .. .v.. ....t ..:...,... .. ... ....... ..v......., ..............:.......-... ... ,. .. ,.4 ..."",,. . ... .\, : .v ......... .. .......... n ... ............... .......... ...................................... ....... ...................: }v:::;:...

Speakers at the three-day long conference organized by the Free South Africa Coordinating Committee (FSACC) included Motatlepula .. Chabaku, a South African exile and former leader of the women's resistance to pass laws implemen- ted in South Africa in the 1950's. CHABAKU, who has earned an undergraduate and three master's degrees during the nine years she has been in the United States, has been con- tinually harassed by U.S. immigration officers and said that she "can't get a green pass in this country." "If I was a Communist from the Soviet Union, I'd get it," she said, pointing to the numerous Soviet exiles given asylum in the United States. "I have no citizenship anywhere in the world." Chabaku said that while she appreciates the freedom and opportunity that she has found since being here, "America has to watch out." "IF YOU DO nothing about South Africa, and you have a right to, South Africans are going to liberate themselves," she said. "We're going to remember you when the revolution is over." Evidence of the role that the United States has played in supporting the apartheid regime could be found in the passbook that Chabaku carried with her. This book is the identification that black South Africans must carry with them at all times. TODAY- Most writer ST F 'TOO MANY cnnks snnil the broth then m Her passbook photograph was taken using IBM machinery and printed on Polaroid film. Since the time her photograph was taken, Polaroid has withdrawn from selling film for this purpose. The pictures are now printed on Kodak film. CHABAKU SAYS she believes that students in the United States 'can help to end apartheid because of the effect they have had on similar struggles in the United States. Sonny Venketrathnam, a South African activist of Indian descent who spent 7 years in prison there, agreed that any help given to the anti-apar- theid movement by the United States must come from the "common American people." "WE ARE NOT looking for help from the American government. They are in cahoots with business interests," he said. Barbara Ransby, a University graduate student who helped organize the teach-in, said of the pur- poses behind holding the conference: "One is to educate people, but the other is to activate people." "We feel very strongly that the anti-apartheid movement being built in this country right now will have a powerful impact on South Africa," she said. "APARTHEID IS not going to end spon- taneously," said Tanaquil Jones, a student from Columbia University who was instrumental in organizing protests there, including a three-week blockade of a campus building that led to the recent decision of Columbia's Board of Regents to divest their holdings in corporations doing business in South Africa. Jones noted that since the Columbia protest at least 26 colleges and universities have partially or totally divested. She said she believes that studen- ts all over the country can benefit from what they learned. "It's a microcosmic representation of the nationwide struggle for divestment," Jones said of the Columbia struggles. LEADERS OF the anti-apartheid struggle here say they believe that their immediate efforts must focus directly on the University. "The University is trying to find a compromise around an issue in which I think there is none," Ransby said, referring to the decision of the regents to divest 99 percent of their original in- vestments in corporations that are involved in -South Africa. The University is holding onto the 1 percent of South African-related stocks to protest a state law which forces them to divest all of their holdings. The regents argue that the law violates the University's autonomy. "Their lawsuit is an insult to the people who are struggling," said state Rep. Perry Bullard (D-Ann Arbor), who believes that the University should divest the last $500,000 of its original holdings. "Sometime in the next year or so the media will stop focusing attention on South Africa," Bullard said, adding that it is up to us to tell them that "it's still reality. . . we demand that you continue to look at it."
