Walker, a 23-year veteran of the political science department, will finish his 3-year term as associate dean for academic appointments in, LSA before assuming his new post. Kingdon, whose 5-year term ends in June, will return to teaching political science in addition to doing research at the Institute of Public Policy Studies. LSA Dean Peter Steiner and the LSA Executive Committee settled on Walker for the post after polling political science faculty members. He was told of his appointment a month ago and is soliciting the opinions of the faculty as to what direction they feel the department should take. "I don't expect to remake the political science department," said Walker, who sees the post as "a big cooperative enterprise." Walker said of his appointment, "It's a mixed blessing. I'm not being elevated to some great post." A graduate of Emory University and the University of Iowa, Walker concentrates his political science work on American political institutions and public policies. His specialties include American government, public policy, and election analysis. Walker served as director of the Institute of Public Policy Studies from 1974-79 where he is still a research scientist. In 1980, he received a Guggenheim Fellowship and was a Senior Fellow at the Woodrow Wilson International Center for Scholars. Kingdon also received a Guggenheim Fellowship in 1979 and studied at Oberlin College and the University of Wisconsin.

U.. may let dollar value fall WASHINGTON - Treasury Secretary James Baker will meet today with the finance ministers of Canada and Japan to discuss monetary issues, but there was little indication that the Reagan administration is ready to join in steps to ease the dollar's sharp fall. Administration officials, who spoke on the condition of anonymity, said yesterday that despite the recent plunge in the dollar - which this week brought the currency'*to a new post-World War II low against the Japanese yen - Baker seems content to allow the dollar to continue falling with market pressures. That's because a lower dollar should eventually begin to ease this nation's trade deficit, estimated at a record $173 billion last year. (Continued from Page 1) local resident. "This has become the ultimate local issue." Other speakers criticized the administration's cutback in local and state programs to finance a huge defense build-up. Rev. Robert Wallace said the city is "severely handicapped by the redirecting of funds from where they ought to be - in local issues." Wallace, who heads the Ann Arbor Shelter Association, said funds to aid the homeless and provide affordable housing are more important than military spending.

Fox done in wax. "We think The Three Stooges are really having a revival with young people now," said Terry Thrift, marketing director for the museum. "They're on TV all weekend. But who ever sees the Barrymores?" The museum, acting on results of questionaires from visitors, is removing lionel, Ethel, and John Barrymore as well as the "Laugh-In" comedy team of Dan Rowan and Dick Martin, Thrift said Monday. "We've got Mel Gibson as 'Mad Max' set for February, Jonathon Winters from the film 'It's a Mad, Mad, Mad, Mad World' in March and The Three Stooges in April," he said. Visitors want Johnson and Fox added to the collection, Thrift said. He said the museum must first obtain their permission. If you see news happen, call 76-DAILY.
