THIs DAY In Daily History Court refuses to readmit expelled student March 24, 1983 - Former student Scott Ewing lost his battle in court yesterday to be readmitted into the University Medical School's presti- gious Interflex Program. Ewing was expelled from Interflex, an acceler- ated medical program, after failing a board exam. In a U.S. district court, Ewing's lawyer, Michael Conway, argued that despite the fact 40 students had failed the board exam, 39 of those students were given the opportunity to retake it - Ewing was the only exception. The medical school's Promotion and Review Board maintained that it had acted arbitrarily in Ewing's case and came to the decision of dis- missing him after he had a series of struggles in the program in addition 0 Democrats say move is partisan; Republicans say board is "out of control" LANSING (AP) - The Michigan Senate passed legislation yeseterday stripping powers from the state elec- tions board, a backlash against Demo- cratic members who've been criticized for the way they handled an anti-affir- mative action ballot measure. The Republican-led Senate voted along party lines to send the legislative package to the House, which has already approved some of the bills. Democrats opposed the legislation. The proposal would shift responsi- bility for putting ballot issues before Michigan voters from the Board of State Canvassers to the state Bureau of Elections. The four-member canvassers board has two Democrats and two Republi- cans, leading to partisan splits in recent years over controversial ballot issues such as gay marriage and affirmative action. Last year, the Democratic board members initially refused to comply with a court order to place a consti- tutional amendment banning some affirmative action programs on this November's ballot, citing concerns that signature gatherers misrepresented the proposal to minorities and others. Sen. Alan Cropsey, a DeWitt Republican and lead sponsor of the legislation, said it would remove the certification process from an "out-of- control" Board of State Canvassers. "This is an issue of, 'Are you going to let people speak, are you going to let people vote?"' he said. Democrats said the bills were par- tisan, adding that the state elections director - who would be responsible for approving ballot petitions - reports to Secretary of State Terri Lynn Land, a Republican. Sen. Gilda Jacobs, a Huntington Woods Democrat, said she disagreed with the board's actions but said it was unnecessary to take away its powers. "This board usually works," she said. "When it doesn't work, people can go to court and challenge its actions." Sen. Buzz Thomas, a Detroit Democrat, said Democratic mem- bers of the board were right to be concerned about possible fraud on the part of those who gathered sig- natures to put the anti-affirmative action measure on the ballot. wOA It~rt -- m mGAIV 'G N 9: Is?
