Marcos calls for general election MANILA, Philippines (UPI) - A group of 29 prominent Filipinos yesterday asked the supreme court to declare a mistrial in the case of ar- med forces chief Gen. Fabian Ver and 25 others charged in the 1983 murder of opposition leader Benigno Aquino. The petition urged the high tribunal to stop a three-judge court from ren- dering a verdict. The court ended ;seven months of hearings in Septem- 'ber and is expected to hand down a decision by next month. Ver is expec- ted to be acquitted. " THE PETITION asked the tribunal :to review the acts of both the trial 'court and the state prosecutor. "The proceedings were patently null and void for being grossly 'violative of the due process of law," said the petition, signed by prominent *businessmen, a former Supreme Court justice, educators, human Frights attorneys and opposition mem- bers of parliament. The petitions charged the state prosecutor with being "manifestly dbiased and impartial in favor of the accused" and having riot "exerted earnest, genuine efforts to pursue all the evidence available under the law of the land." Ver and the 25 others - military men and one civilian - were charged in connection with the Aug. 21, 1983, murder of Aquino, shot while being escorted by a soldier from a jet that had returned him from three years of self-imposed exile in the United States. The military contends that Aquino, President Ferdinand Marcos' ar- chrival, was shot by alleged com- munist-hired assassin Rolando Galman, who was himself slain by soldiers moments later. In addition to the 29, the petition also was signed by Galman's mother Saturnina and his son Reynaldo. Ver, a loyal Marcos ally, and eight others are charged as accessories for allegedly attempting to mislead an earlier civilian inquiry and face a maximum 20 years in prison. But the Supreme Court ruled in June that their testimony before that panel could not be used against them. One civilian faces a life term as an alleged accomplice and the others are charged as principals and face a maximum death penalty if convicted.

T Eubb;E'A . sr LIST lan SasN , nNbbardr wi ,de l a r, WASHINGTON (AP) - Thirteen years have passed since Congress passed a law seizing Richard Nixon's presidential papers and tape recor- dings. Despite orders that documents dealing with Watergate be released "at the earliest reasonable date," not a single one has been made public. Nor has anyone been able to listen to the 4,000 hours of tapes. Only 1211, hours of the recordings are public - because they were used in the criminal trials of Nixon's subor- dinates. THE LATEST attempt by the National Archives and Records Ad- ministration to provide for public ac- cess to the 40 million pages of Nixon materials is stalled in the bureaucracy, although the Reagan administration denies there is any political reason. The archives sent a final draft of proposed regulations to the White House's Office of Management and Budget for routine approval on July 11. Rober Bedell of OMB acknowledged receipt on July 23 and said without further explanation that "it has been necessary for us to extend our review period." NOTHING HAS been heard about the regulations since then. No regulations, no public access. The proposed regulations represent the sixth attempt to let the public see the Nixon documents. The first three sets of regulations were rejected by Congress, the fourth was submitted and withdrawn for legal reasons. The fifth set was ruled unconstitutional by a federal court. One problem may be that many people who worked for Nixon are, or have been, associated with the Reagan administration. "THEY ARE extremely concerned about access to the public record of their activities - even though the stuff we are trying to open is like the stuff opened up for years in other presidential libraries," said one Violentcrme at 'U'amon highest (Continued from Page 1) Maryland's campus had 1,222 in- cidents involving property crime in 1984. Eugene Sides, campus police chief at Maryland, called the statistics misleading. Sides said the university's flagship campus did not rank first in any of groups that make up the violent crime category in the FBI Uniformed Crime Report, which is based on information submitted by state and local law en- forcement agencies nationwide.

"They also are concerned that no matter how innocent their activities, the press would make a big deal of it." o. 7- Hardcover 576 pages Yamaha DX-7 now in stock KX, QX, RX, Tx also available ANN ARBOR MUSIC MART ". a mustpurc hase" AMERICAN LIBRARY ASSOCIATION BUY YOUR COPY TODAY!
