The 6-9 forward blocked 186 shots in 23 games during his junior year. Mills also considered Kentucky and Syracuse, Romulus coach Al Wilker- son said, but decided to stay close to home.

University construction foreman Glenn Nicholai of the plant department said reported incidents of campus graf- fiti have doubled from a year ago, shooting up the cost of cleanup bills to the University. Gus Pablindeman, also a construction foreman,said there is a pileup of about 25 work orders to clean up the graffiti dating back to last September. This means much of the graffiti becomes part of the campus landscape. "It's a shame," Pablindeman said. "They don't under- stand the time and money involved to remove it." Although methods of battling the graffiti have improved over the years, the costs have steadily risen. A new chemical called "graffiti grabber" runs about $50 a gallon, and with the sudden rise of graffiti vandalism, last month's cleanup crew used 12 gallons of the chemical. Of even greater concern than the expense and the unaesthetic nature of the graffiti on campus is the increas- See "CAMPUS," Page 6 .. .....................

Alexander Haig balked yesterday at talk of succeeding Ronald Reagan in the White House. His agent Norman Brokaw issued a press release this week anticipating that the former NATO commander, secretary of state and White House chief of staff would be a candidate in '88. And Brokaw said yesterday in Los Angeles that Haig told him he planned to run for president. BUT HAIG said yesterday in a telephone interview from candidacy West Point, where he had a speaking engagement, "I'm not throwing my hat in the ring yet. I don't want to be pushed prematurely into a lame-duck status." He said he would remain active politically and cam- paign for Republican candidates in next year's elections. He said making a statement now about his aspirations could underminie the president and detract from the 1986 congressional elections. Haig, who will be 61 on Dec. 2, was appointed secretary of state by President Reagan in 1982 but resigned in 1983. ngratulated SAID on its victory and year, and kept people informed, that would be ed, "If the effort they showed in cam- just what the student body needs.

MSA ma yurge computer -. fee boycott By JERRY MARKON The Michigan Student Assembly may urge students to boycott the .5eeUniversity's controversial computer fee next term in response to the student body's overwhelming rejec- . tion of the fee in this week's MSA '....special elections. In addition to considering a boycott, k ;.arse; .MSA leaders said yesterday they will encourage the University ad- ministration to seek funding from private industry and alumni for com- .

Out of 2,331 students who voted in the referendum, 1,855 said they do not support the fee.

Students also supported changes in See MSA, Page 3 Code debate shifts towards firats By KERY MURAKAMI When the University's ad- ministration proposed a code of non- academic conduct last year, students balked, saying that the University has no authority over their lives outside the classroom. Since then, however, students seem to have accepted that - at least in cases in violent crimes - the Univer- sity should be able to take some kind of action. Just how far the long arms of the University's law should extend began to be questioned last week when the University Council started haggling over how to handle violent crimes in fraternities, sororities, and co- operatives. BOTH SYSTEMS lie in the gray area between being a University organization subject to University sanctions, and being a private residence governed by societal san- ctions. The University Council - the nine- member body charged last year to work on an alternative to the ad- ministration's code proposal - has already agreed that the University's jurisdiction is limited. The University should be able to take aciton when the crimes take place on campus or when a student, faculty member, or staff member is acting within those roles off campus. FOR EXAMPLE, the University would have jurisdiction if a faculty member attacks a student while holding a seminar at home. The University would not have jurisdic- tion, however, if the faculty member and the student were at a party. Under the current proposal in cases of violent crimes, the council has also agreed that a student, faculty, or staff member can be, at the most, banned from campus. The decision would be made by a central campus coor- dinator within 24 hours of the incident. The accused, however, would be able to appeal the decision in a mandatory hearing within 10 days after the sen- tencing. "I think the council has pretty much reached a consensus that the Univer- sity should not get involved in what transpires between people's personal lives," said Internal Medicine Prof. Donald Rucknagel, one of the coun- cil's two chairmen.
