P fitc tgtat Ninety-six years of editorial freedom Iatl Vol. XCVI - No. 48 Copyright 1985, The Michigan Daily Ann Arbor, Michigan - Monday, November 11, 1985 Eight Pages Powerful Blue pounds Purdue, 47-0 By JOE EWING It wasn't quite cold enough to snow aturday at Michigan Stadium, but the Purdue football team ran into a blizzard just the same. _ The Wolverines (4-1-1 in Big Ten, 7- 1-1 overall) froze out Purdue's Jim Everett, the Big Ten's most produc- tive quarterback, and buried the Boilermakers under an avalanche of offensive stats while coasting to a 47-0 victory. THEY totally dominated the ame," said Purdue head coach Leon urtnett about the ninth-ranked Wolverines. "I've brought some great teams up here and we just don't know what happens." The outcome of the contest may have left Burtnett a bit bewildered, but what actually happened was quite simple. Michigan finally got an offen- sive storm to go with its defense, which has whitewashed opponents all season. The Wolverines took advantage of several big plays and rolled for 551 yards in total offense while holding Purdue, which had averaged a Big Ten-leading 481 yards per game, to a mere 104 yards. PURDUE, on the strength of Everett's arm, was expected to have a big day passing. However the Wolverines and Jim Harbaugh outgained the Boiler- makers and the All-American Everett in air yardage, 276 to 96. Michigan lso plowed through the Purdue defense for 275 yards on the ground, while the Boilermakers could manage just eight yards on the ground all day. The Wolverines struggled somewhat in the first quarter as the Boilers used short dump passes to pick up three of their seven total first downs early, and Purdue's defense stifled the Michigan offense. But then the roof fell in on Purdue. "The big plays did it," said edichigan head coach Bo Schem- bechler. "It wasn't really that kind of a game at first." "I THOUGHT our defense played well in the first quarter," said Burtnett. "But after that it was all down hill." Michigan got turned -around with 4:57 left in the first stanza when Pur- due return man Steve Griffin fumbled a punt on his own 23 and Michigan long snapper Andy Borowski jumped on the ball. Two plays later Harbaugh hit tight end Eric Kattus in the corner of the end zone for the first Michigan score. From then on, the first half passing show belonged to Michigan. Har- baugh connected on 11 of 12 tries before the intermission for 225 yards and three touchdowns to power Michigan to a 28-0 halftime lead. The Wolverine field general finished with a 12 for 13 showing for 233 yards. "WHAT you see is a first-year quar- terback," said Schembechler of Har- baugh, a junior who is seeing his first real action this year after sitting out most of last year with a broken arm. "He's not perfect, but he's smart and he has a good arm. Thank heaven he's here, he's healthy and we've got him for another year." Harbaugh showed that he could come up with big passing plays when the Wolverines needed them, as he hit freshman flanker John Kolesar on first half touchdown strikes of 34 and 65 yards. Kolesar finished the half, and the game, with a team high four cat- ches and 148 yards. "Their defense had given us some stuff in the first half that had cofused us," said Schembechler, "but then we got the big plays with the pass." GERALD White banged over from one yard out midway through the second period for the Wolverines' only rushing touchdown of the first half. While Michigan primarily used a flurry of passes to bombard the Boilers in the first half,bit discovered another, more traditional way of moving the ball in the second half. "In the second half we found that we could run the ball," said Schem- bechler. "In fact, our first drivE (which resulted in a Thomas Wilcher D aily rhoto by DAN HABIB Purdue quarterback Jim Everett manages to escape Wolverine defensemen Mike Hammsterstein and Mark Messner.

James Blanchard told student leaders Friday that he supports a proposal to have studen- ts serve on the governing boards of the state's public universities and colleges. Blanchard, who was honored for his "commitment to higher education" by a coalition of student government leaders from schools across the state, also said he would push the state's schools to keep tuition increases at or below the inflation rate. He said the state probably would not be able to give the schools enough state funding to demand a tuition freeze for state residents, as it has the past two years. M SPEAKING AT a reception in his honor at Michigan State University's Student Union, Blanchard encouraged the students to push state legislators to change the state constitution and allow him to appoint the schools' board members.{ Members of the University of Michigan's Board of Regents are currently elected in a statewide vote. A two-thirds vote by the state legislature is needed for a change in the constitution. This is easier than the alter- native of collecting 300,000 signatures in order to change it, said Paul Josephson, president of the Michigan Student Assembly. Josephson said he has talked to state leaders, including Rep. Perry Bullard (D-Ann Arbor), about pushing for the change. BLANCHARD SAID the idea would undoubtedly face opposition, especially after a Michigan State University See STUDENTS, Page 2 '45 protest 'sexist' Black Velvet b'll ad By LAURA COUGHLIN Forty-five people protested down- town Saturday against what they said was sexist advertising on a billboard 4t the corner of Main and Ann Streets. The billboard, which has been the subject of several protests in the past, is a Black Velvet whiskey adver- tisement which portrays a woman in a black dress lying down undernearth the words "Feel the Velvet Canadian." THE protesters carried signs which read "Beware Young Wimmin They're Foolin' You" and "Stop Rape Now." Another sign, apparently *eferring to the several times the billboard has been spray painted with anti-sexism slogans, read "Un- derground Feminists Unite. Spray it out Loud." After an hour of picketing and chan- ting, the protesters stopped to listen to several speakers denounce the billboard. Judy Levy, a spokesperson for the Workers Revolutionary Party, told a captive audience that "We have been physically and mentally raped *ya society that uses women as ob- jects." Levy also called for immediate rape prevention programs funded by the city and the University, a city- funded lesbian/gay community cen- ter, and a third political party representing the workers that is capable of competing with the Republicans and the Democrats. Jacquelyne Eccles, a professor of psychology and women's studies at the University, said similar ads have contributed to the rise in anorexia and bulimia among women who feel they must compete with the magazine models. Jennifer Akfirat, who was jailed and fined $2,000 for defacing the billboard earlier this year gave the group directions on how to "enhance" it in the future. "You need three people and a ladder," she told the crowd. About 30 women and 15 men par- ticipated in the protest, and organizer Debbie Jurmu said both males and females are exploited in advertising. But she pointed out that "men are not the victims of sexual violence." research , By JERRY MARKON The chairman of the University's classified research guidelines review committee announced Friday that the committee's first meeting this Wed- nesday will be closed to the public, despite oppostion from the Michigan Student Assembly. In a prepared statement, Prof. Phillip Converse, director of the Cen- ter for Political Studies, said he decided to close Wednesday's meeting to allow the committee "to hear its detailed charge and to organize itself for its program of work." MSA LAST week urged the Univer- sity administration to open the meeting, but Converse at the time said he had not made a final decision on the issue. The committee will review the University's current guidelines for classified research at the request of the Board of Regents. Although Converse wrote that the committee "will plan some public hearings as an integral part of its review procedures," MSA leaders yesterday said the decision to close Wednesday's meeting is part of an overall University effort to loosen the current guidelines. "I DON'T KNOW why the decision can't be arrived at openly," said Steve Heyman, chairman of MSA's Legislative Relations Committee. "I would guess they're worried about people opposed to the classified research on campus trying to get their views across." MSA President Paul Josephson said the committee "is attempting to limit the debate and steer it into one par- ticular direction-loosening the guidelines." Josephine and other MSA leaders have previously accused the ad- ministration of trying to stack the nlee ting committee with-faculty members who are opposed to research guidelines. "I WANT TO know what individual people are going to say during the meetings. I think every person on campus should be privy to that infor- mation," Josephson said yesterday. At least one committee member, Pathology Prof. Rees Midgley, agrees that the review committee should hold open meetings. "It's an honest open issue that deserves honest open debate," Midgley said. "You want to present a picture that all sides are heard." OTHER COMMITTEE members refused to comment, and Converse yesterday would not elaborate on his reasons for closing Wednesday's meeting. "The committee just wants to organize itself-what is so hard to un- derstand about that," Converse said. He added that the policy for future meetings will be determined this Wednesday. According to University officials, the University does not have a specific policy regarding meetings of ad-hoc review committees, and the Regents' By-Laws, which determine overall University policy, do not ad- dress the issue. PREVIOUS REVIEW commit- tees-such as the ones which reviewed the College of Engineering's Humanities Department in 1983 and the schools of art, education, and natural resources in 1983-have closed their working sessions and held public hearings for students and faculty members. The State of Michigan Open Meetings act of 1976 mandates that public bodies hold open meetings in most cases, but University attorneys said the act does not apply to the current review committee.
