I Page 2 - The Michigan Daily - Wednesday, November 16, 1988 Former 'U' Regent dies at 84 BY MARK MOSHER A former University Regent who led the fight to ensure the Univer- sity's legal autonomy from the State Legislature died last Saturday at 84. William Byrnes Cudlip served on the University's Board of Regents for one term between 1964 and 1972, and on Rackham Graduate ,School's Board of Governors for 12 years. Cudlip died of complications from emphysema. Born and raised in Iron Mountain, Mich., Cudlip did his undergraduate work at Swarthmore College, earned an L.L.B. from the University's law school in 1926, and held a partner- ship in the Detroit law firm of Dickinson, McKean, Cudlip, and Moon until he retired in 1976. A former director of the Ameri- can Judicature society, Cudlip was active in the constitutional politics of Michigan - especially when they affected the University. When the Michigan constitution was rewritten in 1963, Cudlip went to the convention as delegate, "primarily to secure the right of re- gents'and trustees to control the 'Big Three' Michigan colleges," said for- mer University President Robben Fleming. Cudlip also wrote The University of Michigan: Its Legal Profile, a historical study of the University's legal rights vis-a-vis the state gov- ernment published in 1969. He is survived by Lynwood Cud- lip, his wife of 59 years, two daughters, three sons, two sisters, and twelve grandchildren.- A mass will be held in his mem- ory at 10 a.m. this Saturday in Holy Childhood Church, Harbor Springs.

The Times, he said, is responsible for promulgating the notion that the Palestinians are "terrorists," while saying Israel only uses violence against the Palestinians in retaliatory strikes. "All we hear on the radio, see on TV and read in the papers is Palestinian violence against Israel. Israel has killed over 400 Palestinians and yet we never hear about 'Israeli violence' in the occupied territories," he said. "The reality is we are unarmed with a boot on our neck." ge of PLO Abraham said the best way for Arabs and Arab-Americans to help the situation in the occupied territories is to pressure the U.S. government to cease aid to Israel "as long as Israel and the United States' rejectionism of Palestinian peace proposals continues." "Without U.S. aid, the occupation could not be maintained, and Israel would suffer an economic collapse," he said. The PLO's current effort towards peaceful negotiations is not the first, he said, but one of many that have been proposed by the PLO since 1974 and then rejected by Israel and the U.S. 7 c HOUSE OF WINGS S .

Its members also will weigh a related amendment to the Estonian constitutions that would bar enforcement of any new Soviet law unless it has been ratified by the Estonian parliament, said Edgar Savisaar, one of the leaders of the Estonian People's Front, the broad-based citizen's group behind the proposal. Although the People's Front claims the support of the leadership of the Estonian government and the Estonian Communist Party, passage of the proposals is by no means assured. They require a two-thirds majority in the 285-member Supreme Soviet, or parliament, of Estonia. U.S., U.S.S.R. plan summit WASHINGTON - President Reagan set limited goals yesterday for his meeting early next month in New York with Soviet President Mikhail Gorbachev, saying it would not be in the nature of a summit. The meeting, to be held in conjunction with a speech by Gorbachev to the U.N. General Assembly, would ease the transition to President-elect George Bush's assumption of office January 20. Bush, who is already committed to pursuing a summit with Gorbachev next year, will participate in the session and not see the Soviet leader separately, White House spokesperson Marlin Fitzwater said. He said the agenda has not been set. The target date for the meeting is December 7. Several major issues in the U.S.-Soviet relationship are on the brink of resolution. Riegle's position in doubt WASHINGTON - A power struggle within the Senate leadership may endanger Sen. Donald Riegle's chances of assuming control of a powerful committee, authorities said yesterday. The chair of the Senate Banking, Housing, and Urban Affairs Committee became vacant at the end of. this year's session with the retirement of Sen. William Proxmire of Wisconsin. Whether Riegle, a Michigan Democrat, gets the job hinges on the complexities of the Senate's seniority system and a challenge to Sen. Alan Cranston, a California Democrat, in his bid to win re-election as Senate majority whip. Committee leadership in Congress almost always is determined by seniority, and Riegle, a Michigan Democrat, stands second in line for the Banking Committee chair. Cranston is next in line, but would waive his right to the position if re-elected as whip, a position second only to the Senate majority leader. Sen. Wendell Ford of Kentucky is challenging Cranston for the whip's position. Bush picks new treasury sec. WASHINGTON - President-elect George Bush, back from a relaxing Florida vacation, announced yesterday that Treasury Secretary Nicholas Brady would remain in that job and met with his first foreign leader in his new role. Brady, a former investment banker and Bush's longtime friend, is the second person chosen for the new Cabinet, Bush last week picked James Baker, his election campaign chairperson, as secretary of state. A former senator from New Jersey, Brady succeeded Baker at Treasury in August, and it had been widely rumored he would stay in the post. Announcing his choice, Bush said of Brady: "He knows the most important priority is to keep our economy growing with low inflation. He knows we've got to sit down with the Congress on a deficit-reduction agreement and we've got to do it soon." EXTRAS What's next? Alaskan whale rescue set to music JUNEAU, Alaska - With the international attention drawn to the recent rescue of two trapped whales near Barrow, perhaps it was inevitable that someone would put the saga to music. Paul Candide, a New York composer, recently sent Alaska Gov. Steve Cowper a tape recording of his song, "Gentle Creatures," with a letter asking Cowper to share it with those who helped free the California gray whales from the Arctic ice last month. A sampling of the lyrics: "Have you heard of the tale of the whales who got stuck They were swimin alone when they got down on their luck underneath the deep blue sea... Eskimos brought saws to open the sea as they joined in to set them free And the Russians brought icebreakers through the sea as they joined in to save those three." q I I I 4 I Weekly Meetings: Thursdays: 7:00 pm 219 Angell Hall John Neff - 971-9150(0), 747-8831(H) ' I be £idbtgau ~jjjj The Michigan Daily (ISSN 0745-967) is published Monday through Friday during the fall and winter terms by students at the University of Michigan.
