Page 2-Wednesday, May 22, 1982-The Michigan Daily U.S.-Soviet space agreement, expires quietly MOSCOW (AP)- The U.S.-Soviet space cooperation agreement died quietly this week, a victim of deteriorating political relations bet- ween the two superpowers. Only seven years ago, much of the world watched as two American astronauts crawled through the hatch of their Apollo spaceship and greeted two Soviet cosmonauts circling the ear- th in their space vehicle. President Leonid Brezhnev said "positive changes" in U.S.-Soviet relations had made the joint adventure possible and praised it as a model for future . cooperation in space. BUT ANOTHER joint flight was never staged, and the pact that made the first one possible expired Monday with little notice and no prospect of another major mission. President Reagan announced Dec. 29 that he would not extend the space agreement, signed in 1972 and renewed in 1977, because of the perceived Soviet role in the imposition of martial law in Poland. Two other agreements are about to die. Pacts on energy and on science and technology run out June 28 and July 8, respectively, and also will not be renewed. Four other scientific cooperative agreements-on environ- mental protection, ocean study, atomic energy and development of an artificial heart-were extended last November, weeks before the martial law decree. SA T scores due to testi NEW YORK (AP) - The scores of about 300,000 high school students who took a recent Scholastic Aptitute Test are being recalculated because one of the math. questions did not list the correct answer among the five choices. The College Board, which ad- ministers the standardized entrance exam used by most U.S. colleges, acknowledged the mistake Monday. The error came to light when three students challenged the question on the May 1 edition of the test. THE BOARD said the question will be thrown out, scores revised accordingly, and the 3,000 colleges that have received test scores will be notified of the changes. It said throwing out the one question will change scores by 10 points - up or down - on the test's 200-800 scale. The question showed a small circle A touching a larger circle B to its right. "IN THE FIGURE above," the question read, "the radius of circle A is one third the radius of circle B. Star- ting from the position shown in the fiture, circle A rolls around circle B. At the end of how many revolutions of cir- cle A will the center of circle A first reach its starting point?" The correct answer, 4, was not among the given choices which were: A 3 over 2. THE GOVERNMENT-run Soviet press has not reported the demise of the space pact or the decision by U.S. authorities not to extend the other agreements. During the best of times, a Western expert said yesterday, the space agreement was more an expression of improved political relations between the two countries than of major scien- tific importance. "The United States is not going to be able toget some of the data it used to get from the Soviet space program and vice versa," he said. "But it's not going to hurt the Soviets very much and it's not going to hurt the United States very much either." STILL, HE added, scientists involved in various joint projects were doing "in- teresting, scientifically valid work." Two U.S.-Soviet space committees are said to have played a particularly active role: one studying data sent by probes visiting the moon and nearby planets, and another studying space biology and medicine. The two countries are reported to have helped each other find suitable landing sites on Venus, and to have ex- changed gas and rock samples brought back to Earth. They also have worked together on projects to determine the effects of long periods of weightlessness on animals- information that could be useful if man, eventually, sets up space colonies. adjusted mistake B3. C 6. D 9.over 2. E 9. The explanation given by the board for the correct answer was: "The cir- cumference of the large circle is three times the circumference of the small circle. if the small circle were to rotate along a straight line segment equal in length to the circumference of the large circle, it would make three revolutions. So the intended answer to this problem was choice B 3. "HOWEVER, the motion of the small circle is not in a straight line, but rather around the large circle. The revolving action around the large circle con- tributes an extra revolution as circle A rolls around circle B. Thus, the answer to this question should have been 4, not 3 ." The mistake was the fifth reported in the last 18 months on tests prepared by the Educational Testing Service. Last November's SAT included an algebra question that could not be an- swered with the amount of material students were given to work with. A year ago, a New York high school student found an error in another SAT question. The Law School Admission Test given in February 1981 had an error in - a geometry question. Today The Weather Keep your fingers crossed today that the 20 percent chance of thunder- showers will not appear. Otherwise, skies will be cloudy and temperatures will be in the lower 70s. Mass meeting THERE WILL be a mass meeting today for students interested in organizing summer activities concerning the University's redirection. The meeting, sponsored by the Michigan Student Assembly's April 15 Coalition, will begin at 7 p.m. in conference room G in the Union. Anyone in- terested in commenting on the University's recent budget reorganization is welcome. Q Olympian armadillos THE ORGANIZERS of this year's World Armadillo Olympics have encountered an insurmountable problem - not enough armadillos. Last winter's cold spell apparently had a devastating effect on the animal population of Mahunta, Ga., location of the renowned sporting event. About 20,000 of the armor-plated creatures were available last year for com- petition, but the population has dropped to 4,000 this year - hardly enough for a decent 100-yard dash. Organizers say they will cancel the festivities, albeit reluctantly. "The armadillos could not have disappeared at a more inconvenient time," said organizer Troy Wainwright.
