Bush looks to
carry South on
Su per
By The Associated Press
Republican presidential rivals
searched yesterday for a way to stop
George Bush from a clean sweep on
Super Tuesday, while Democrats
scoured the South for the votes that
could propel one of them out of the
tightly bunched pack on the biggest
primary day in U.S. history.
Vice President Bush said a sweep
of the 17 GOP primaries was "too
much for anyone to expect." But he
was leading polls in virtually every
Super Tuesday state except Missouri
where Sen. Bob Dole (R-Kan.) had a
narrow edge.
Even Dole conceded in Oklahoma
City "it's fair to say George Bush
has a good margin," but said the race
is tight in Oklahoma, Missouri, and
North Carolina.
Earlier, the Kansas senator said in
Birmingham, Ala., "my philosophy
in the South ought to sell like
hotcakes, but so far it isn't
happening. Bush is getting a lot of
I
uu)esday
ruboff from Ronald Reagan."
Dole claimed polls show "that I
beat all the Democrats. (Bush)
doesn't beat any of them... We ought
to nominate a winner instead of a
loser."
Gov. Michael Dukakis o f
Massachusetts, hoping to emerge
from the Super Tuesday contests in
his home state and 20 others with a
delegate lead, campaigned at retirees'
condominium developments in North
Miami Beach and picked up the
backing of Anne Ackerman, 74, a
onetime Chicago ward organizer now
known for her prowess in turning
retirees out to vote.
Four of his rivals - Jesse
Jackson, Richard Gephardt, Albert
Gore Jr. and Gary Hart- were in
Texas yesterday.
Jackson, hopng the allegiance of
black voters throughout the South
will give him his finest hour in two
runs for the presidency, visited an
AIDS clinic in Dallas.
IN BRIEF
Compiled from Associated Press reports
Grand Rapids police officers
file discrimination suit
GRAND RAPIDS - Eight minority police officers filed suit
yesterday in federal court against the city of Grand Rapids and its police
department, alleging the department's promotion system is
discriminatory.
The suit, filed by six Black police officers as well as one Hispanic and
one Native American, asks for a temporary restraining order to prevent the
city from filling six vacant sergeant positions, as well as back pay and
damages for the eight officers.
The suit also asks for an injunction against further use of the present
promotion system.
Air Force chief copes with cuts
WASHINGTON- The Air Force's top officer says he-never dreamed
the Reagan administration's military build-up would be derailed so
quickly, but he intends to maintain readiness even as his service shrinks.
Gen. Larry Welch also said yesterday the Air Force couldn't afford to
develop the new Midgetman nuclear missile favored by many
congressional leaders.
He also said he would press for salary bonuses for pilots and make it
easier for young pilots to stay in the cockpit and would shut down at least
three Air Force bases if Congress let him.
The only way to cope with such cuts, Welch continued, is to reduce
the size of the force. Otherwise, too little money is spread too thinly to
maintain combat readiness.
Retirees demand pensions;
freeze on funds continues
PANAMA CITY, Panama - Thousands of retired people unable to
cash pensions checks blocked traffic and shouted "Where's my money!"
yesterday. A U.S. judge extended a freeze on Panamanian funds in
American banks.
The government assured pensioners they would get their money and
promised to set up payment centers at the capital's Bingo Hall and soccer
stadium. As of yesterday afternoon, however, the centers were not in
operation.
In Washington, a White House spokesperson said the Reagan
administration was considering economic and trade sanctions against
Panama, including withholding monthly payments for the Panama Canal.
Local banks shut their doors last week, fearing a run on deposits
because of political instability.
British avert 'terrorist act'
GIBRALTAR - British soldiers shot three IRA members dead, and
Britain said yesterday that the killings averted a "dreadful terrorist act" in
its fortress colony on tle southern coast of Spain.
Foreign secretary Sir Geoffrey Howe said in London the. soldiers
opened fire Sunday after the unarmed three IRA members parked a white
Renault-5 with Spanish license plates near The Convent, the official
residence of the governor. He said the soldiers acted on a tip from Spanish
police.
Police said they were searching Gibraltar and adjacent Spanish territory
for a car believed connected with a bomb attack the Irish Republican
Army allegedly planned at the governor's residence during the ceremonial
changing of the guard, which hundreds of spectators attend.
Howe said reports that the Renault contained several hundred pounds of
explosives were unfounded.

REGENTAL bylaw 5.09 al-
lows for the punishment of faculty
members, outlining ways to
terminate the contract of tenured
faculty members. But "5.09 is not
used," SACUA member Charles
Olson said.
Another mechanism for enforce-
ment, the Standard Practice Guide, a
faculty and staff conduct guide last
revised in 1981, is "inadequate,"
McClamroch said.
"There's got to be something that
gives the student protection -
without creating a witchhunt," Reed
said.
And McClamroch said a policy is
needed since some University prob-
lems, like anonymous fliers slipped
under doors, are not punishable in
the legal system.
THE REVIEW panel outlined
in Fleming's proposal would contain
two students and one faculty mem-
ber, but SACUA members were
concerned about unfair hearings and
instead proposed to reverse the num-
ber of students and faculty on the
panel.

The FBI will report the findings
of the preliminary investigation to
the U.S. Justice Department, which
will determine whether the incidents
violated the laws. Anthony did not
specify when the FBI will conclude
its preliminary investigation.
Another student contacted campus
security Sunday evening to report
receiving a threatening answering
machine message, said Robert Pifer,
associate director of Public Safety
and Security. Campus security
officials would not release the name
of the student, who said the threat
was made Saturday night, or the
content of the message.
A campus security official said the
department would investigate whether
this message was related to the one
received by the UCAR member.
The Michigan Student
Assembly's steering committee
yesterday passed a resolution offering
a $2,500 award for information
leading to the arrest and conviction of
the person who made the death threat.
Ann Arbor Police Sgt. John
Bodenschatz said yesterday that police
have not received any new leads in
the case.

Elections

GIM board. To ensure fair election of
PIRGIM board members, assembly
President Ken Weine, an LSA senior,
last fall proposed that MSA super-
vise the elections. But PIRGIM di-
rectors said the elections compromise
the group's autonomy.
FIVE referenda are scheduled to
be on the ballot. One referendum
question asks whether students want
to hold a campus-wide vote on a code
of non-academic conduct. If the Uni-
versity's Board of Regents ratifies a
code before this month's election,
MSA would try to seek student
opinion before voting on it, said Jeff
Gauthier, chair of rules and elections
committee and Rackham student.
Two conflicting referenda concern
PIRGIM. One asks students to
maintain current funding for PIRGIM
until the winter term of 1989. The
other calls for the termination of the
MSA contract with PIRGIM that al-
locates the group a refundable 75
cents from MSA's seven dollar fee.
A fourth referendum asks students
to support a May 7 Vietnam Veter-
ans Memorial Holiday on campus.
The last asks whether students
want to increase the MSA fee by 70
cents to fund the Michigan Colle-
giate Coalition, a Lansing-based stu-
dent organization that lobbies the
state legislature for student interests,
including increased financial aid and
tuition cuts.
The last referendum, if approved.
must be approved by the Regents
before MSA can act upon it.

Sweaty couple ties the knot
after four-hour marathon
LOS ANGELES (AP) - The bride wore sweaty running shorts, but
that wasn't surprising considering that rather than walk down the aisle she
had to run side-by-sude with the groom for four hours, 15 minutes.
Bonnie Weller and Jack Slater, both 28, exchanged vows and rings
Sunday beneath the Coliseum's blazing Olympic torch after crossing the
finish line of the 1988 Los Angeles Marathon.
They were greeted at the end of the 26.2-mile route by a hairdresser,
who prepared Weller's locks for wedlock.
"We figure if we can sweat together we can live together," she said af-
ter the ceremony.
The couple headed immediately for Palm Springs for a honeymoon
before returning home to Hampton, Ill.
Themarathon attracted 17,040 runners, including Mexico's Martin
Mondragon, who broke away in the last mile to win in a course-record
two hours, 10 minutes, and 19 seconds. Compatriot Blanca Jaime won
the women's field in 2:36:10.
