But Saturday's Michigan-Michigan State matchup in East Lansing is no ordinary game. THE Wolverines (17-1) have good reason to worry ;about a game with the Spartans (2-4 in the Big Ten) for two reasons. One, this is a rivalry which dates back to 1909, when SU was known as Michigan Agricultural College. Now, 77 years later, with State known as "that party school in Lansing," there is no love lost between the two teams. Two, Scott Skiles, Scott Skiles, Scott Skiles. THE SENIOR guard from Plymouth, Indiana is averaging 26 points in the Big Ten on 58 percent shooting. Last Saturday against Minnesota he nailed 20 of 28 field goal attempts, scoring 45 of his team's 71 points - all in a losing effort. The Wolverines, who have shown an inability to stop hot-shooting guards (see Dell Curry, Marc Wilson, Todd Alexander, Steve Alford, et al.) respect Skiles, and for good reason. "You talk about the great guard combinations across the country," . W.. - See SKY-HIGH, Page- 1 By AMY MINDELL After deliberating for nearly two hours, a jury yesterday acquitted four men arrested for disorderly conduct at CIA protests last fall. "I am really happy. I was feeling a bit pessimistic during the deliberation," said defendant Bill Michael, an LSA junior. MICHAEL, Peter Rosset, a teaching assistant and Rackham graduate student, Bob Krause, a University graduate, and LSA junior John Iskra were the first of 26 demonstrators to be tried after being arrested at CIA protests last Oct. 23. The defendants were charged with violating a city ordinance which prohibits people from disturbing the peace after being warned that they are doing so. Defense attorney Eric Lipson argued that the defendants were not clearly warned before they were arrested. "Police came out and said 'Him, him and him.' The law states that they must get a clear warning and they didn't" Lipson said. THE DEFENDANTS were standing out- side a large wooden door at the east side of the office in the Student Activities Building where the CIA was conducting job inter- views. About four other demonstrators joined the defendants in chanting "CIA go away," and pounding on the door in time with the chants. "It was very loud and scary," testified Deborah Orr May, director of the Office of Career Planning and Placement. May ad- ded that two receptionists had to move from their desks in the front of the office because they couldn't hear the phones. "They were very intimidated, scared," she said. CHARLES Van Noark of the Burroughs Corp. who was recruiting at the Career Planning and Placement Office the day of the protests, testified that the noise caused him to lose his concentration and interrup- ted about three of his 13 interviews that day. "The first interview didn't go so well," Van Noark said. "My attention lapsed due to the disturbance." May agreed that the protests added more strain to the tense atmosphere of in- terviews.d"Students going into interviews are already nervous at best," she said. PROSECUTING attorney Ron Plunkett said Ann Arbor police Captain Kenneth Klinge warned the protesters before they were arrested. "Klinge said he told them to stop two times, and some employees in the office said their chanting and pounding got even louder," Plunkett said.

Speaking in halting English, Lodisev, 33, said that the U.S. is "great" and "much more" than he expected. LODISEV said that he had always felt he and Gubin, his wife of 4 years, would be reunited. He said that although he was eager to see his wife, his last few days in the Soviet Union saddened him because "my mother was crying all the time." Gubin, 38, met Lodisev in 1980 at Kiev when she was working or, her doctoral thesis as a Fullbright-Hays scholar at Kiev University. They married in April 1981, but Gubin had to leave the Soviet Union in July of that year when her visa expired. Although he applied for an exit visa every six months, Lodisev's requests were turned down the first seven times. He was finally allowed to leave in November when the Kremlin announced a list of 10 persons to be released.. THE COUPLE was reunited at Newark International Airport Monday night when Lodisev's plane arrived from Frankfurt, West Germany. They spent the following two days in Manhattan, then headed for Gubin's hometown of Daily Photo by JOHN MUNSON Aleksei Lodisev and Sandra Gubin speak to reporters at the Detroit Metropolitan Airport last night. See GRAD, Page 3 MSA official works for V.P . By REBECCA BLUMENSTEIN A top Michigan Student Assembly official and several others associated with the assembly disagreed yesterday on whether that official's ties to University associate vice president Niara Sudarkasa pose a conflict of interest. Lawrence Norris, chairman of the assembly's minority affairs commit- tee, said yesterday that he has been a work-study employee in Sudarkasa's office since November. "THE JOB is an extension of my work-study program, and came from financial need," Norris said. "I wan-, ted to get a job that could parallel my work at MSA and, if anything, would enlarge my duties here," he added. Others at MSA disagreed, saying that Norris' employment presents a conflict of interest because MSA's views on minority affairs differ from the adminstration's views. "There is a real schism within MSA about which direction minority policies should go, with Norris con- sistenly siding with the adminstration and Sudarkasa," said Richard Layman, an executive assistant to MSA president Paul Josephson. . "If Sudarkasa is employing Norris, the potential for buying out really bothers me," Layman added. "MSA doesn't have an ethics code, but it doesn't take much sense to realize that if someone in the administration is paying a representative such as Norris, a conflict of interest exists." MSA PRESIDENT Paul Josephson declined to comment. Cheryl Bullard, MSA's ad- ministrative assistant, said she was "very surprised" to discover that Norris had such connections to Sudarkasa. According to Norris, Bullard found out about his job when she accidentally found his time card just before Christmas. "Although he has been working sin- ce September, he didn't volunteer any information," Bullard said. Sudarkasa said she was surprised to hear that people are concerned about a conflict of interest. "I was happy that one with such contacts would come to me when looking for work," Sudarkasa said. She said Norris is helping her prepare See NORRIS, Page 5 Law profs debate Miranda decision By JACKIE YOUNG University law Prof. Yale Kamisar and Wayne State University law Prof. Joseph Grano transformed Hutchins Hall into a moral battleground yesterday afternoon, attempting to convince their student audience that the Supreme Court's Miranda decision was either good or evil. About 200 students turned out to see Kamisar and his former student, Grano, debate the Miranda Rule, which was established by the Supreme Court's 1966 decision in Miranda v. Arizona. The rule requires that police advise suspects before in- terrogation to their right to remain silent and to have a lawyer present during questioning. GRANO urged a return to pre- Miranda days, when a "voluntary rule" applied to police confessions. He said he didn't see the "evil" of allowing suspected criminals to be in- terrogated by police. Kamisar responded to Grano with an attack on the Reagan ad- ministration, which has launched a fight against the decision. "Maybe Ron Reagan can answer the question of what is good or evil," Kamisar quipped. "The police don't want to overrule Miranda. It's Ed Meese who wants to overrule Miranda to appeal to his constituency."
