Costs
Continued from Page 1
"The University has too many
vice presidents, vice provosts, and
their staffs," he said. "That's why
our student money is being wasted."
In October, a Daily study found
that the number of administrators
had grown 22 percent since 1980,
while the number of students and
faculty had grown by less than five
percent. Phillips said. having so
many administrators is using money
that would be better spent elsewhere
in the University.
"Until now, it's been my
impression that the University
regents haven't been facing the real-
ity of having to cut costs," said LSA
junior Zachary Kittrie, a student
representative to the University's
Budget Priorities Committee.
"I think this [cost cutting] is very
overdue, but an important step for-
ward," said Kittrie, who is also chair
of MSA's External Relations
Committee.
Kittrie also stressed that quality
should not be sacrificed when mak-
ing cuts in the University's
expenditures, a statement echoed by
both Vest and Duderstadt.
"(The University) needs to come
up with ways to cut costs without
putting quality at risk," Kittrie said.
In other business, the
University's Board of Regents
discussed the following items
at yesterday's meeting:
-The regents tabled until
next month discussion on a
statement on student rights,
including procedures de-
signed to "protect the aca-
demic rights of students" at
the University's Flint campus.
The seven page document
includes sections on academic
rights, non-academic rights,
discrimination, sexual ha-
rassment, and non-academic
procedural rights.
-The regents approved
using a portion of the Univer-
sity's Radrick Farm property
near North Campus for a pro-
posed substance abuse fa-
cility. The facility would be the
the clinical research site for the
Department of Psychiatry's
"research initiatives in sub-
stance abuse." A five year
federal grant worth 7.5 million
and a two year University grant
of 500,000 will accompany the
research site.
-University Psychology
Prof. Robert Zajonc was ap-
pointed Interim Director of the
Institute for Social Research
-The University's new
chemical sciences building,
near completion, was named
the Willard Henry Dow Labora-
tory after the founder of the
Dow Chemical Company.
MSA rep. asks for
regental action
BY TARA GRUZEN
Nick Mavrick, an LSA represen-
tative for the Michigan Student
Assembly, spoke to the University's
Board of Regents yesterday about
what he termed as "student abuse" by
Director of Public Safety Leo
Heatley.
Mavrick requested the regents to
file a formal complaint against
Heatley. He said he tried to talk to
Director of Financial Operations
William Krumm and Chief Financial
Officer Farris Womack about the in-
cident but they have not yet taken
any action.
Mavrick, who was writing an
MSA report on the deputization of
campus security officers, attended a
meeting last fall with Heatley to
discuss the subject..
During the scheduled meeting,
Mavrick asked Heatley if there were
any arrests made by campus security
on the day of President Duderstadt's
inauguration, Mavrick said.
He told the regents that Heatley
responded by standing up and asking
him to leave. Mavrick said he was
read a statement of trespassing in
Heatley's office and was threatened
with arrest if he didn't leave
immediately.
But Heatley disputed Mavrick's
account and said he tried to continue
their meeting and did not ask
Mavrick to leave. There were certain
questions that Mavrick asked to
which he did not have the answers,
Heatley said.
"We had planned to talk about
public safety," Heatley said after the
regents' meeting. "(Mavrick) wanted
to know the total cost of the
inauguration and why the number of
invitations was limited. I didn't have
the information he was asking for."
"He was never read a trespassing
statement. That part of what he said
was not true," Heatley said.
Mavrick spoke yesterday during
the public comments session in
which speakers. give five minute
presentations to the regents.
"Thank you for thinking about
it," Mavrick said to Womack at the
meeting. "Now do something about
it. I, a student, was abused."
After talking to other senior
officers at yesterday's meeting, Re-
gent Thomas Roach (D-Saline) said
he personally does not favor an in-
vestigation of Mavrick's complaint.
"It appears to me that the facts
were vastly different from what
Mavrick said today and at the time it
happened Mavrick acted in a very
inappropriate way," Roach said.
When interviewed afterwards,
Womack said, "I'm going to ask Bill
(Krumm) to look into the incident
and then tell me exactly what
happened so I can decide what to do."

ness executive at the dinner. "They
hold these staged events every time
Republicans get together and it's in
very poor taste," he said.
"I know it's easy to lose the word
democracy in all this celebration and
the fireworks and the balls and the
traffic jams," said Rep. Bill
Schuette, a Republican representing
north-central Michigan. "You need
to take a step back and say it is an
incredible example that the Demo-
cratic system does work."
IN BRIEF
Compiled from Associated Press and staff reports
State divests to abide by law
LANSING - State Treasurer Robert Bowman's decision to cancel a
$110 million investment because it conflicted with a new law banning
investments in companies with ties to South Africa was hailed yesterday
by foes of that country's racial policies.
Bowman said Wednesday he was backing out of the September 1987
commitment to Kohlberg Kravis Roberts & Co.'s leveraged buyout fund
because the company is in the process of buying out RJR Nabisco, one
of the 95 U.S. companies with South African involvement.
The new law bans new investments of state pension funds in
companies involved in South Africa until the country drops its policy of
racial segregation or until the companies sever their ties with the country.
Bowman's decision makes Michigan the second state after
Massachusetts to back out of participating in KKR's leveraged buyout
pool for the acquisition of RJR Nabisco.
Botha names acting president
CAPE TOWN, South Africa - President P. Botha, hospitalized with
a stroke on Wednesday, and now reported by office and hospital officials
to be in stable condition, yesterday named a Cabinet minister and long-
time political ally as acting president.
Constitutional Development. Minister Chris Heunis, the senior-
ranking Cabinet member, vowed at his swearing-in ceremony to adhere to
Botha's policies.
In his Cabinet post, Heunis has been assigned to develop a
constitutional format that would give blacks limited power sharing with
the white-run government.
Most prominent black leaders have refused to negotiate with Heunis,
and the government's political reform process is widely perceived to be at
a standstill.
Heunis served as acting president for several days last year. He will re-
main in his new post until Botha returns to office or decides to retire.
Race riots wane in Miami
MIAMI - The violence that disrupted the Miami neighborhoods of
Overtown and Liberty City ebbed yesterday, and officials estimated
damage to be less than $1 million.
The riots, caused by the shooting of a Black man by a Hispanic police
officer, ended with two men dead, seven others shot and some 370 people
jailed. Miami police and federal agents are investigating the death.
Police continued to control access to the community, but
neighborhood businesses reopened and children returned to school.
Damage in these areas was less than first feared by the Fire
Department. Thirteen buildings were torched, but seven of those were
abandoned buildings. However many other buildings were damaged in the
looting that occurred during the riots.
Police search for motives
behind schoolyard shootings
STOCKTON, Calif. - Patrick Purdy, the gunner who killed five
Southeast Asian children in a crowded schoolyard, had no grudge against
any particular ethnic group , just "a hate for everybody," police said
yesterday.
Thirty other people were wounded in Tuesday's attack at Cleaveland
Elementary School, which ended when Purdy-a loner with drug and
alchohol problems and a fascination with all things military-killed
himself.
A 6-year-old boy remained in serious condition yesterday and 17 pupils
and a teacher were in stable condition. The others were treated and
released. Most of his victims were children of Southeast Asian refugees,
but Capt. Dennis Perry said: "Through his lifetime, Mr. Purdy developed
a hate for everybody."
Purdy was described as a danger to himself and others and suffering
from "mild mental retardation" in a mental health report prepared in 1987.
EXTRAS
Heide goes to Washington
When President George Bush takes the reigns of this "kinder, gentler
nation" from Ronald Reagan today, the eyes of the nation will be watch-
ing on TV. Two lucky Michigan students, however, will be there in
person "to read George's lips" as he says "so help me God."
LSA junior Hiede Hayes, a Michigan Student Assembly rep-
resentative, was picked from a list of thousands of candidates to attend the
inauguration as part of the Michigan delegation. Hayes speculated that she
was nominated by Rep. Bill Schutte (R-10th District).
Hayes' roommate, LSA junior Melanie Zeiner, will attend the cere-
monies with her. The two are paying for all their expenses, including
$175 tickets to an Inaugural Ball at the Sheraton. They chose this Ball,
rather than the less expensive "Youth Ball" in hopes of seeing more of
Bush and Vice President Danforth Quayle.
- Not to be phased by the endless string of food, celebrities, and parties
that await, Hayes said, "this will be a political experience for both of us."

Brown had been under investiga-
tion by state and federal agents for
allegedly selling 40,000 LSD hits a
month. He still may face federal in-
dictment from the Federal Drug
Enforcement Agency in Grand
Rapids for selling narcotics.
Kirk Tabbey of the County Pros-
ecutor's Office said Brown was
charged with delivering LSD,
possessing less than 25 grams of
cocaine, and possessing marijuana
with intent to deliver.
Brown was unavailable for com-

Diag today at noon. "We want to
make apparent that Roe vs. Wade is
being threatened,' said Lisa Milan, a
member of the group.
The recently formed group was
put together by the Lesbian and Gay
Rights Organizing Committee
(LAGROC) last week. "Given the
emergency state of the situation, we
just want to send a strong message
to the community - and launch a
larger program," said Paul LeFrak,
the group's coordinator.
LeFrak said he hopes the group
will gain momentum and "have a
life past the rally."
Both pro-choice and right-to-life
activists around the state and the
nation will be holding events.
In Lansing tomorrow, the Na-
tional Organization of Women will
hold- a "Rally for Choice" at the
State Capital Building to celebrate
the Roe v. Wade decision.
Pro-choice activists will also try
to aid women patients during
tomorrow's planned "Operation
Rescue" - a project where right-to-
lifers sit in front of abortion clinics
to prevent patients from entering.
Right-to-life activists usually
don't move until arrested, said Molly
Henry, a NOW member and counter-
rally organizer. Pro-choice activists
generally try to "maintain order and
escort patients into clinics," Henry
said.
"It can get kind of scary at the
clinics if police don't do things the
right way," Henry said.
There will also be a Right-To-
Life "Funeral March" on Sat. night
in Detroit. It will start at an abortion
clinic - an "abortuary" - and end
at a church, said Tammy Hubbard, a
Right to Life member. "It is a fu-
neral for the 25 million babies that
have been lost since 1973," said
Hubbard.
