Waylon, Flippo, Elvis, Ian... and Serge ByBobWelngartner

Staff Reporter

One-word descriptions of persons are often difficult to create and are misleading or inadequate. But one work can capture what University sociology professor R. Serge Denisoff is all about. And that word is music.

Dr. Denisoff studies music and writes about it. While living in California during the heydey of rock and folk in the 1960s, he came into contact with many musical giants and persons responsible for their fame. His knowledge about music has spurred him to write three books on the subject. He now is working on a biography of country music superstar Waylon Jennings.

Born and raised in San Francisco, Denisoff lived there for 26 years before leaving to get his Ph.D. in Canada in 1969. In 1970, he accepted a Job as an associate professor of sociology at the University.

I GOT INTO sociology originally because I was a correctional counselor at San Quentin prison when I was an undergraduate (at San Francisco State University). And also, I was very politically involved at the time. I was in 'Fair Play for Cuba' and all of those kind of groups in the early part of the '60s, and sociology was a way of un- derstanding the society as it existed.

"Also at that time I saw it as a vehicle of changing that society. In other words, I was almost a prototype- type of San Francisco campus radical and that's what got me into the field to start with."

Besides working as a correctional counselor to pay his way through school, Denisoff also kicked around the Bay Area for awhile, playing folk music on his guitar in such clubs as the Coffee Gallery and the San Fransisco Folk Music Club. "I was a three-chord wonder," he said sarcastically.

After completing his undergraduate studies, he attended Simon Fraser University in Vancouver, British Columbia, and received his doctorate.

AT THAT TIME I was particularly concerned with political protest movements. I did my thesis on the American Communist party in the 1930S and '40s, concentrating (on) their use of propoganda, particularly in the area of music." After that the book "They're Coming," was published in 1971.

After receiving his doctorate, he was asked to come to the University to teach. Coming from the liberal at- mosphere of California, he said he was not sure about moving to the more conservative rural area of Bowling Green.

,"I was somewhat leery because I'm a native Californian and that was the year of Kent State, and my views of the state at that time were 'Oh boy, this is a land of fascism.' But I came here for a conference in Toledo for the American Studies Association and it turned out

it. But all the other stuff that appears is strictly for the journal."

Denisoff first met Flippo, associate editor of Rolling Stone, in Memphis, Tenn. What he describes as "a famous, or rather, infamous rock writer's convention in 1972 which supposedly was to create almost a guild, or union of writers in the field of music" and has been friends with him ever since.

CHETS GOING to write a piece for an upcoming issue of Popular Music and Society which will be predominantly an interview with Willie Nelson," he added.

Although Denisoff said he likes many kinds of music, his favorite is country music. "I think it has the best composers at the present time. It's love, mother, prisons, trucks, boozing it up and all of those kinds of things. It's

Beatles after they got out of the teeny- bop scene of 'I Want To Hold Your Hand'-when they did 'Revolver,' Rubber Soul," 'Sgt. Pepper.'

"I always enjoyed the (Rolling) Stones, Yardbirds, Byrds (and) the majority of country rock groups. But some of the current stuff, the stuff like heavy metal, punk, Foghat, Aerosmith- -I'm too old for that. The current state of rock, with its emphasis on volume...doesn't do much for me. Kiss

doesn't turn me on," he said. "I wouldn't even use terms like

'good' or 'bad' (to describe today's music. I would say it's changed. It's changed in some cases technically for the better and lyrically, perhaps, for the worse."

From 1968 to 1969, Denisoff wrote for 'Broadside', a New York magazine dealing with protest songs he met Ed Ward, who became the music section reviewer for Rolling Stone. When Ward

invited him to be a contributor to Rolling Stone, he accepted and wrote record reviews for two and a half years. At the same time, he worked with other

music publications, cultivating con- tacts with the music industry's heavyweights.

IN 1974, Denisoff decided to become music editor of 'Exit' magazine, a publication originally from Bowling Green which later moved to Cleveland.

some of the current stuff...like

Aerosmith-I'm too old for that'

that it wasn't really (that bad). And they finally talked me into coming here, which was in 1970.

In 1971, he became editor of "Popular Music and Society", a self- sustaining journal published under the aegis of the Sociology department. The publication is a spinoff of the Journal of Popular Culture.

IT STARTED in 1971 as an in- terdisciplinary journal addressed to both academics and to people in the recording industry," he said.

"All of the articles we've published, with one exception, have been designed for the journal specifically. We did publish part of Chet Flippos's M.A. because it was the histroy of Rolling Stone, and since he was very much involved in it I thought it would be ideal. And since I was kind of an adviser in

terms of a thesis, he allowed me to use

earthy kind of music-it's about real people.

"It's not like 'You Light Up My Life' kind of thing, which is kind of a com- mentary, a romantic love-and-they- lived happily-ever-after-and-had-2.2 kids kind of thing. Country is real. It talks about the human existence, the human experience as it really occurs, as op- posed to what we observe on television. Country is real. It's down-home. That's where it's at," he explained.

He also has opinions about rock and roll.

THERE ARE certain types of rock I think are just great. Unfortunately, the majority of it was produced between 195S and 1970. I like most of the •rockabillies'-Elvis Presley, (Jerry Lee) Lewis and all of those. I liked the

When Wood County Commissioner Paul W. Ladd decided not to seek re- election, the floodgates were opened and eight persons have announeced their candidacy for the seat.

Six Republicans and two Democrats will be on Tuesday's ballot. The top vote-getter for each party will face off in November.

RICHARD E. BAUMBACH, an engineer from Lake Township seeking the Republican nomination, said that because of rapid growth in the county, a person knowledgeable in the engineering field is needed on the board.

As a county and bridge inspector, Baumbach said bridges are a major concern.

Bridges in the county are falling apart more quickly than they are being repaired, according to Baumbach.

About four new bridges are built each year at a cost of $65,000-$85,000, he said, adding that the county needs to double the amount and construct 8 to 10 bridges each year to keep up with traffic needs.

In addition, Baumbach is concerned about how the current board handles finances.

"I'm sure we can cut some corners and pay more attention to what the money is spent on," he said.

CHARLES E. BROUGH, a farmer from West Millgrove seeking the

election '78 Republican nomination, said he sees the commissioner's job as being full- time. Having served on the com- mission by filling an unexpired term four years ago, Brough said he knows more about the job than his opponents.

Brough said a communication problem exists between the current board and the public.

"They (the commissioners) haven't listened to the people enough," he said. "They need to listen to more input from the people."

NORMAN MILLIGAN, 15168 Liberty Hi Rd., who is seeking the Republican nomination, said that the board must begin working together to serve the county.

"We've got to let the people know what's going on and why," Milligan said, adding that a more business-like approach is needed in county gover- nment.

Milligan, a real estate salesman, cited his experience in dealing with finances and management as a plus for the office.

He expressed concern about the Ohio legislature possibly passing the Ohio Reinvestment Tax Act. The act would allow county commissioners, under certain circumstances, to freeze the tax base of expanding industries.

"I'm not so sure whether you should

have it or not," Milligan said of the act. "But when it happens, you'd better

have a commissioner who can handle it and know what to do."

Milligan said he would devise a list of priorities with local officials about what needs to be accomplished throughout the county.

LEONARD D. STEVENS, a businessman from North Baltimore, also is seeking the Republican nomination. He has served on the Wood County Fair Board, North Baltimore city council, the Wood County board of education and is a trustee at Owens Technical College in Perrysburg.

Stevens suggested that, if elected, he will recommend a system of tran- sportation for county employees so that they can park their cars at various other county buildings in the city to relieve traffic congestion near Cour- thouse Square.

In addition, Stevens said he will look into the possiblity of expanding sheriff patrols in the southern part of the county.

DON L. ZISS, a farmer in Middleton Township, is on the ballot as a Republican. He ran for a com- missioner's seat two years ago.

Ziss, a Middleton Township trustee for 17 years, said he is concerned about the current board's apparent lack of concern about spending money.

"I haven't really brought up issues

like I did two years ago," Ziss said. But he did note a problem of duplicating services.

Ziss said more than $1 million has been spent to improve sewers coun- tywide, but the current board still is having an engineering firm look into the feasibility.

He said he disagrees with the way assessments have been made during the sewer improvement project and said those who use the sewers should pay for the project.

Ziss also said he sees a problem of communication with the public, citing the construction of the new Wood County office building as an example.

"I don't agree with the way it's done," he said. "The people turned it down 3 to 1 and all they did was add more piggyback taxes to build it."

John C. Hoiles, of Wayne, also is seeking the Republican nomination for county commissioner. He could not be reached for comment on his candidacy.

Robert Dunipace and Daniel M. Knorek are vying for the Democratic nomination.

Dumipace claims a strong agricultural background. He is a farmer and had served on various county soil conservation boards.

"I know the soils of Wood County,'' Dunipace said. Better communication between rural residents and municipalities will be a major goal if he is reelected, Dunipace said.

Dunipace charged that secondary- roads and bridges under the com- missioners' authority are "sadly deficient in a lot of areas in the county."

According to Dunipace's opponent, Daniel M. Knorek, the key issue is that "the people don't feel that they are represented by their county com- missioners as closely as they want to be."

Knorek said the commissioners should work more closely with the county engineer in maintaining drainage ditches.

"There are about 3.000 miles of dit- ches, with maybe 800 miles under repair. The other 2,200 miles they might not be keeping track of," he said.

Local merchants discuss credit

SGA supports South African divestment By Cindy Leise Staff Reporter

The Student Government Association (SGA) last night threw their towel into the effort to prompt a University- related investment firm to sell its South African Holdings.

SGA unanimously approved a resolution drafted by a group of University students, the United Front for Divestment In Apartheid, demanding that the Bowling Green State University Foundation, Inc., sell

its stock in U.S. corporations in South Africa.

That approval followed two previous requests for support from SGA for the proposal, and a series of telephone calls and meetings between SGA and United Front of ficials. And as late as Tuesday, at the Faculty Senate meeting where the resolution was heard and passed, the SGA executive board was still against the resolutions.

But by last night, Voll announced that the SGA executive council had decided that the "moral issues of this

thing (divestment) override any possible economic loss."

After dicussion on what "sup- porting" the resolution meant, SGA voted in support of the resolution, which is to be presented at the bi-annual meeting of the board of directors of the University Foundation, Inc., this month.

The two-page resolution states that indirect University investments in South Africa "assist in perpetrating the exploitation and racism."

In other action, SGA approved a

multitude of appointments to its committees and several appointments of officers' assistants.

Voll explained that a summer SGA has been formed which is required to meet at least two times and cannot spend more than 10 percent of SGA's budget.

Voll also told SGA he would motivate them next year.

"I really haven't pushed anyone this year but I will next year...getting people off their butts and to work," he said.

You are a freshman in college and an outcast because you do not have your own stereo.

So you start shopping for the one that is sure to impress everyone in your wing, but discover that the system costs more than you have in your piggy bank.

Not wanting to let your parents know you are still dependent on them, you try to pay for the stereo on credit, but are refused because you do not work enough or you have no prior credit rating.

To the student applying for credit, this is discrimination. To the mer- chant, it is good business.

THE ANSWER to how a person can establish credit is difficult to find, but

both creditors and customers agree on one thing-it is not easy.

The belief that creditors think students are undependable is false, according to one University professor. He says granting credit lies mainly upon the question of where the money will come from.

"I think it centers on the question of income," Dr. August R. Ralston, associate professor of finance and insurance, said when analyzing the student plight.

"In general, establishing credit can be difficult not just because the person is a student, but perhaps he has an inadequate income level," he said.

THE INCOME the applicant plans to make is the main criteria a credit in-

opinion 'judgment is founded on truth.*.'

it's about time A new chapter In the sex discrimination Book seems ready for writing.

The new chapter would chronicle the new attack being waged against divorce laws in the Supreme Court.

Divorce laws have long been controversial in the way that they were administered by the courts. Perhaps the biggest objection to the laws is tht it seems men are the ones who are continuously coming with the short end of the stick.

Under the current system, men are the ones who pay alimony after a divorce settlement. Thirteen states, not including Ohio, have laws that expressly permit only the wife to receive payment.

It is because of this belief, that the man should take care of the wife even after a ruined marriage, that has come under the scrutiny of the Supreme Court. A California man Is responsible for the new interest in the alimony system, saying that the laws are unconstitutional because they only effect the men, never the women, in divorce proceedings.

Although the Supreme Court has supported the laws in the past, it seems that there is a move to be more fair than the males. As a con- curring opinion has said, "It appears that when viewed in isolation statutes which restrict the rights of women are unconstitutional. On the other hand, statutes which grant to women rights which men do not possess are not unconstitutional."

More feelings like this and true equality, at least under the law, would not just be a possibility, but a reality.

kurfess heads above all the rest Three weeks ago I took a survey of 74

students in a sociology class to deter- mine political philosophy and party preference for a class project. I was not surprised to discover that only 12 percent of the class said they had a strong interest in politics and gover- nment, while less than half would not even identify themselves with a political party.

This obvious lack of interest in politics and the reluctance of people to join a specific party is reflected in the Gallup and Harris national polls, too.

Next Tuesday the citizens of Ohio (a few of us, anyway) will go to the polls and vote in the June 6 primary election. I say a few of us because there is such a small percentage of the electorate that bothers to cast votes in a primary, sometimes as little as 20 percent.

IN TALKING with students on campus I found that one of the major reasons they don't vote in primaries is

By Randy Gardner

because they don't want to declare party affiliation. To put it simply, they don't want to be labeled Republican or Democrat.

There is nothing wrong with joining a political party. In fact, there is very much right with it.

First of all, students should be reminded that declaring party af- filiation at the primary in no way binds a person voting in the November general election. Few people vote a straight-party ticket anymore, and voters often change parties two years later in the next primary if they become dissatisfied with their previous choice. It's that easy.

SECONDLY, THERE is no prerequisite that says you must agree on every issue with the party you choose in the primary. Debate within the party creates competition in primary elections, resulting in stronger candidates and, ultimately, better government. By getting involved in party politics, voters can have more input into eventual government decisions and policy.

And, most importantly, by sitting out the primary the non-voter lets an even smaller percentage of the electorate choose the candidates for the general election. In doing this, that non-voter selects, (in November,) between two candidates picked entirely by somebody else. Your personal voting power is, in reality, cut in half.

It is crucial that everyone utilize their full voting power in 1978 by voting Tuesday. Because this year, like none other in recent history, your vote can make a difference. We can all make a difference by electing Charles F. Kurfess Governor.

CHUCK KURFESS, a state representative for 22 years and current minority leader of the Ohio House of Representatives is running for

governor in the Republican primary. For me, it is not enough for a candidate to simply hand me a pamphlet and ask for mv vote. Chuck Kurfess has earned it!

Probably the most respected legislator on either side of the aisle, Chuck Kurfess is a leader with an in- comparable ability to instill confidence in the individual and restore to his constituents a new faith in the gover- nment process.

In a day when many people regard politicians as dishonest and self- interested, Chuck Kurfess does not fit the mold. He is a man of purpose who has provided his district with superb representation in Columbus. Space does not permit, however, a thorough review of Chuck's legislative achievements, for there are many.

HE IS, IN my opinion, the most ar-

ticulate spokesman of Republican philosophy in the state of Ohio. When Chuck Kurfess speaks, people not only listen to what is said, they can believe it.

His running mate for lieutenant governor, Lucille Ford, is also a fine speaker with a wide background in education and economics. She would be the state's first woman elected lieutenant governor, and a good one, too.

I firmly believe that the Kurfess-Ford team can help bring about the leadership we expect and deserve. I urge every registered voter to vote in the June 6 Republican primary. As the campaign theme says: "For a New Ohio, It's About Time."

Randy Gardner is a student at the University and president of the Wood County Young Republican Club.

guest column (

ra positions open to all but the most qualified Author's Note: The following is definitely an opinion column. It is not meant to say that anyone is guilty of anything; It Is merely a statement of some of my thoughts and impressions of some things that have been going on concerning the resident advisor selection for next year. It may lose me a possible job, but by now I have the feeling that I wouldn't be getting a position next year anyway.

I have been greatly disturbed these past few weeks about things that have and have not happened concerning the re- opening of resident advisors applications for students here at the University. Maybe "greatly disturbed" isn't quite a strong enough way to state it. "Doggone pissed off" would perhaps be more appropriate.

Remember as you read this, it is merely my view, and mine alone of what has been happening. It could be totally wrong. It may have come about because of a total breakdown in communications.

Here is the situation as I see it: I have been a member of the resident advisor pool since mid-January. One is made a member of the pool after they have demonstrated that they have at least a 2.5 GPA, and also, through a series of in- ter views, shown that they are not misfits out looking for bucks or power.

I HAVE undergone training in CSP 480, which is better known to me as the intensive RA training course. I am get- ting 3 credit hours for it (I have a total of 20 hours this quarter).

Interviews were taken with hall directors about two months ago in order to get placed for a job. Obviously, there are more people in the pool than there are jobs available, so some people do not get one for one reason or another. Reasons include director's impressions of the applicant, a drop in grade point, failing to pass CSP 480, and a number of others. Not getting a job is no great shame; in fact, throughout the course it has been impressed on us that the students in the course are special because the majority of students, if they had tried to get into the pool, would not make it

I did not get a job. I was definitely disappointed, but not too unhappy. I knew that I would probably be able to land a job by winter quarter of 1979, or even one for fall if someone for any reason, decided not to take the job they had been awarded.

SUDDENLY, FROM out of the blue, came the an- nouncement that there would be new positions opening up, 13 of them to be exact. I was at the time very happy because I knew that meant there were more jobs available than there were people left in the pool. Surely, I thought, I'll have a job for fall quarter, 1978.

But, through an amazing set of circumstances, it seems to me that I will be lucky to ever get a resident advisor position on this campus. .. Was I busted for dope? Am I on academic or disciplinary probation? Do I have a reputation of not being reliable? No. I'm a member of the RA pool, and that seems to be the worst thing to be right now.

Anthony J.

Miller

Don't get me wrong. Several ball directors that I have spoken to have assured me they know nothing about what I feel is going on, and have told me that it will not affect their decisions to hire one way or the other. I am thankful for their reassurance.

HERE GOES...A day after I found out that the new positions would be opening up, word came to me that we were supposed to be told where to apply for the new interviews that night in CSP 480. People in the Tuesday night session (I went on Wednesdays) were taken -side and told something, but what I didn't know.

Sure enough, as we were ready to break into small group sessions, it was announced that all persons not having a position for next year were to stay for a moment to meet with Fayetta Paulsen, assistant vice provost of resident programs.

We were informed, basically, that there were thirteen new positions open, that we could apply for interviews, and that the information would come out to everyone with a 2.S GPA on posters to be distributed to dorms the following day.

HERE CAME the shock - people who have gone through the training and were members of the pool would have no priority in getting a Job.

I returned after the small group sessions to ask Ms. Paulsen again to make sure I had heard right, and I had. I also asked where the openings were so I could apply. She said we would be told where to try at the next class, a week later.

Odd, I thought, since it's coming out on posters tomorrow, but I can find out from the posters. However, I resolved to see Bill Lanning, director of residence life, the next morning to ask about the seemingly illogical practice of giving un- trained, uninterviewed persons the same shot at a position that members of the pool had.

THE INTERVIEW with Mr. Lanning was what really shook me up. I, along with another member of the pool, outlined the situation to him as we saw it. I included the fact that an RA had told me the night before that she had talked to a hall director who had said he / she would not hire a pool member because they have already been rejected.

Mr. Lanning was helpful in that he listened sym- pathetically to the story and commented on some of the views. He assured us that a committee (on which he was a member) had officially decided not to give pool members any priority for Jobs. He added that it had raised quite a ' commotion during a committee meeting and that although he

didn't feel it was quite a fair decision, that was the way it stood.

When pressed about the comments of the hall director (who said they wouldn't hire a pool member) he had us close the door to his office while he related the following things to us: First, he said he would be "blunt" and explain what some of the committee members had said, which was, in effect, there was no one in the pool they would want to work with.

SECONDLY, HE quoted the hall directors on the com- mittee (and he specifically told us it was a quote): "Some of them (pool members) might make good RA's if they grew up." He said that it was an attitude that existed, but there was nothing he (the director of residence life) could do about it. I was inclined to agree, but it didn't make me very happy.

At this time, I thought that I had better start writing down what I felt and the things he had told us. These were my views then, and they still are now.

Members of the RA pool will have undergone roughly 30 hours of classroom training by the time next fall quarter rolls around. Add to that a night of group processing (4 hours), another Interview to weed out undesirables (1 hour), homework for CSP 480 (3 hours), and initial hall interviews (2-3 hours), plus any other individual research the pool member has done. It all adds up to anywhere from 35-40 hours of training. They must have a 2.5 GPA and not be on any type of probation.

A NEW APPLICANT need only interview once at the hall he wishes to work for, and train two days for a total of 16 hours for the job. He needs a 2.5 GPA and cannot be on probation. He need not have expressed any interest in being an RA since early January, as pool members have. In fact, he may have been one of the persons rejected by the group processing session.

A question: Does it make sense to give these people as much or more priority in getting a job? Also, if I am going to be passed over for a job I would hope it would be because there was someone better trained than me, had better capabilities, or just even impressed the hall director more than I did. I would hope it would not be because I am a "reject from the pool" I would hope that I am not ruled out before I can Interview with a hall director.

Shortly after my Interview with Mr. Lanning, I went to see Richard Eakin, vice provost of student affairs. I related these views to him, and he agreed with me. I said that if there was one thing I would like him to do, it would be to send a memo to the hall directors explaining this to them. I hope that he did.

ANOTHER OF MY thoughts...If the poeple in the pool are so bad that they should not be given a position, then the original selection process is not good and, like the new ap- plication procedure, no initial screening interviews or 40 hours of training should be required. Let 'em walk in and say "I want to be an RA" and boom, they have a fine chance for a Job. It would eliminate all the hassle and paperwork for both applicants and administrators.

That sounds like foolishness to me. And yet that's what seems to be going on right now.

I still interviewed at two halls with openings available for males. Offenhauer was tough to schedule an interview for; they were going to be getting a new hall director next year so they didn 't really know who was going to do the interviews.

I FIRST CALLED Offenhauer after my interviews with two other halls were finished because of this. I was told that the hall director had not yet been selected and to keep trying. The new hall director was hired soon, so I tried once again and was checked through the office of Residence Life for clearance for an interview. Whoever answered the phone that second time I called said that they believed the new RA's would be chosen from the new applicants, and not from the pool members.

Another pool member, after being told essentially the same thing, called Fayetta Paulsen and asked her about the lists which had been sent out by Residence Life. Ms. Paulsen asked who had given permission to make an appointment, and how could you try when you don't know where the openings are? When the reply came that they were posted in the halls, she asked if a notice has been received personally. When told that one had been received from Mr. Lanning and that it was a matter of public record, she said, in effect, "Don't get smart or I can see that you will not get a chance at a position."

Tuesday, May 30,1 made an appointment to interview for a position at Offenhauer. It is my impression that the delay caused by Residence Life's two lists of interviewees, one (containing the names of new applicants) sent for some reason half a day or so ahead of the other (listing the pool members).

A FINAL NOTE on the situation. In Tuesday's BG News, an artical entitled "Seven dorms to receive more RA's fall quarter" appeared. In it, News reporter George Lundskow quoted Fayetta Paulsen as saying that the "RA pool has been exhausted." I called Lundskow up and asked him if that's really what she said, that in effect there was no members left. He said that it seemed to him that was what she said.

Not only am I not worthy for a job in the eyes of a com- mittee and some anonymous hall directors, but publicly, In a News story, I do not even exist!

I get the impression that pool members are getting the extreme short end of the deal, and that I have been misled, if not lied to, on several occasions. It has crossed my mind that writing this editorial may cause me to lose a possible job. I have also realized that I really do not want a job if that is the case.

An RA position would give me interpersonal work ex- perience which would be invaluable in my career in broad- cast news. I just hope that I am given a fair chance to get a job.

I'm not asking for a Job - just a fair chance. Is that so much?

Degree boomeranged Thursday, June 1,1»78 The BG Newt Pmgtl

By Paula Wlnslow Staff Reporter

Academic Council yesterday boomeranged a proposal to establish a bachelor of science degree in planning and development because of title and overlapping degree disputes.

The proposal was referred back to its parent committee, which was composed of professional planners and developers and University faculty, for renaming and further con- sultation with other University colleges and departments.

Several council members said they would support the four- year program to teach planning and development principles and skills in the community, health, human services and industrial areas. But they argued that the proposed program's title should be more specific.

"THE TITLE simply doesn't say enough," Dr. Kenneth W. Rothe, acting University provost and council chairman, said.

Dr. David G. Elsass, dean of the College of Education agreed, suggesting that the name be changed to community planning and development.

But other council members such as Dr. Stuart R. Givens, professor of history, indicated that renaming the program would not solve the underlying problems.

Dr. Leo J. Navin, professor of economics, outlined some of those problems, saying, "There are major growing deficits in the curriculum."

He said he objected to the lack of required computer science, mathematics and financial skills courses in the program's core curriculum. Such skills are needed for work that planners and developers probably would encounter involving computers and statistics, he explained.

Dr. Larry E. Foster, assistant dean of the College of Health and Community Services and co-author of the plan, sup- ported the committee's curriculum choices, but acknowledged that they could be more "finely tuned." The degree would be offered in that college.

THROUGH A MAIL survey of area businesses and in- dustries, Foster said the committee found that there is a greater demand for sociology and geography skills than for mathematics. The proposed curriculum includes several courses from those areas.

Possible overlapping with other degrees and departments also was discussed by council members who said they thought the program was too broad.

"There are no constraints, no limits," Dr. Karl E. Vogt, dean of the College of Business Administration, protested vehemently. "We will open a Pandora's box in terms of courses and degrees offered at the University."

SIMILAR CHARGES were echoes by Navin, who said that the program is not clearly separated from similar ones in public administration or management. He claimed that the planning and development skills addressed in the proposal could be interpreted as business skills.

Dr. Stephen S. Chang, associate professor of geography, defended the program, saving that geography is included in the curriculum to emphasize the difference between the business and community aspects of planning.

"We are interested in land use in the community...not how to run an agency," he added, explaining the program's purpose.

Further discussion of the proposal will continue after Foster and his committee revise the plan.

New graduate courses approved In a special meeting

yesterday, Graduate Council approved 18 new graduate- level courses, four of which will be offered summer quarter.

Council approved a nine- course package as part of a curriculum revision to create a new political science specialization in public administration.

The following graduate courses were approved for fall quarter: survey of public administration, public management, research

ministration, public program evaluation and methods, public personnel administration, government budgeting, urban management, topics in public policy analysis and topics in public management. Eleven other political science courses will be deleted from the graduate catalog to absorb the new

package. Council also approved a

500-level Health and Physical Recreation (HPER) course, survey of

methods in public ad- adapted physical education.

THREE COURSES in Educational Curriculum and Instruction (EDCI) also were approved by council. They are instructional design, theory and practice in the secondary school and curriculum design and development. The latter two courses will be offered summer quarter.

In other action, as part of the second report of the academic standards com- mittee, council approved the development of a rationale statement by the graduate dean's office to further study

the graduate level grading scale.

In the third report of the academic standards com- mittee, council approved guidelines at the graduate level for regular admissions, conditional admissions and regular admissions with assistantshlps or fellowships.

Council also approved a policy statement concerning future transcript notations for minors, specializations or cognates. The transcript notations approved are not retroactive, Associate Graduate Dean Elmer A. Spreitzersaid.

Credit Jrom page one

stitution considers, according to Ralston. He said merchants are con- cerned about students not staying in the area to pay the bill, not having a per- manent full- or part-time Job or losing the job.

Some local retailers, however, look for more than the basic data.

When a person applies for a Sears, Roebuck and Company credit card, he must estimate current and future ex- penses, according to Sue Simon, a credit clerk at Sears, 149 N. Main St.

A STEADY JOB is needed in order to get a Sears charge card, Simon said. But even students with part-time cafeteria jobs can be considered, she added.

"If they have an income it is not too hard at all," she said, noting that as long as the student meets standards he will not be refused credit.

The J.C. Penney Company charge card policy also requires an applicant to have a job before giving him a charge card, according to Nancy E. Vermilya, credit clerk supervisor for J.C. Penney, 136 S. Main St.

Vermilya said an applicant usually must have other credit cards or previous credit ratings to receive credit.

STUDENT CREDIT card holders have a limitation on the amount they

can charge, Vermilya said, adding that the student's limitation is adjusted as he establishes credit.

A more "liberal" credit card system is used in LaSalle's department stores, according to James H. Haley, assistant controller of credit for the northern Ohio chain.

The LaSalle's student credit plan requires only an identification card and proof of registration at the University, Haley explained.

Each charge card recipient receives a special card and is limited to $100 on his account.

LASALLE'S IS able to better reach the student market through its credit plan, Haley said, noting that the store has more than 4,000 student charge cards.

About 90 percent of the accounts in good credit standing are held by University students, he added.

Another avenue students often travel in an attempt to receive credit is the road of the national credit cards.

Criteria for national credit cards usually is the same as for any other credit, according to Linda Hawkey, manager of the Master Charge department for the Mid American Bank. 222 S. Main St.

"EVERYONE IS treated exactly the same," she said, comparing credit

applicants. Applicants are reviewed on an in-

dividual basis at the Huntington Bank of Wood County, according to vice president Paul Windisch.

The "subjective" decision to grant credit is based on various criteria, but mostly on the applicant's ability to repay and his-her past credit •history, Windisch said.

The Huntington Bank, which carries both Visa and Master Charge credit cards, discourages student applicants

from having a co-signer, Windisch said. The bank would rather accept the student's credit on his merit, Windisch added.

Because properly establishing credit is difficult, a pamphlet from the Ohio Attorney General's office suggests that a student:

-Establish a source of income, either full or part time;

-Open a checking or savings account in his name;

-Apply for a single-purpose credit card, such as gasoline or a department store;

-When using credit, pay the bills promptly to establish a record reliability in repayment of debts; and

-Use an installment plan to pay for the purchase of a car, furniture or major appliance.

Tever' film, album set trend

New films tied to rock scene By Marc Holland

Entertainment Editor

In the wake of the unparalleled success of "Saturday Night Fever," both the Paramount film and the RSO soundtrack album, comes a wave of what are loosely categorized as "rock films."

"American Hot Wax," "Grease," "I Wanna Hold Your Hand," "Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Heart's Club Band," "Thank God it's Friday," "FM," "The Buddy HoUy Story," "The Last Waltz," "Big Wednesday" and "A Tribute to Lynyrd Skynyrd" all were or will be released during the first half of 1978. All feature contemporary popular music very prominently, both in the films themselves and in their promotion, and most are tied to elegant two-and three-album packages similar to "Fever's."

What makes these "rock films," however, is their attempts to capture and distill the popular

music experience. All attempt to understand the meaning of that experience in the lives of fans, performers, disc jockeys and others who find large portions of their self identity through their relationships with popular music.

THE FILMS seem to fall into two groups in their final analysis of that experience. Several follow the lead of "Saturday Night Fever" in depicting the popular music experience as a socializing force. Pop music, they imply, can help confused, disillusioned youth find their self identity as well as a comfortable niche for themselves within the mainstream of American life.

Others attempt to recapture or recreate these heady days of the 1950s and 1960s, when rock music seemed a genuine force for social change. An attachment to rock music meant corresponding rejection of the alleged con- formity, repression and greed of middle class

Ohio fair gave Davis his start RENO, Nev. (AP)-A plush suite at the new

MGM Grand Hotel may be a long way from the Ohio State Fair grandstand, but Mac Davis is excited about his eighth straight year at the exposition this August.

"The Ohio State Fair audience is the greatest thing that ever happened to me. Probably the greatest experience I ever had was the first time I worked that fair. Davis said.

"I had nothing but a guitar. I was an opening act for The Carpenters. I sang and did my thing and they (the audience) were standing up at the end and singing along with me.

"Then a thunderstorm came up-I mean, it was a frog-strangling thunderstorm," he drawled.

"I was so carried away I just stayed out there and sung. I didn't know whether I was supposed to auit or what. So I'm out there on that ramp and there's electic bulbs all around and wires-and

I'm holding onto a microphone. I just stayed out there and sung.

"WHEN I GOT through, I was just soaking. I looked like a drowned rat. I went back to the mobile homes they have back behind the stage and dried off.

"About 15 minutes later, the guy who books the fair came back and said, 'Mac, you hear that?'"

All Davis could hear at first was the rain pounding on the roof.

. "Then, I heard that crowd-that whole crowd. They were just standing out there singing, 'I Believe in Music' Standing in the rain- drenched-out in the track area, and you could hear them loud.

"I broke Into tears. It just killed me. And I said right then, 'I'm going to stick with this business for sure.'"

American culture. Which brings us, finally, to "FM." "FM" depicts the operations and especially

the problems of what is described as the top radio station in the nation's number two market. Conflicts between hip, free-wheeling DJs with a strong commitment to rock music and a rock lifestyle, and greedy, stereotyped salesmen whose only concern is profits are emphasized. Though set in contemporary times, "FM" revives the "us and them" polarization of the 1960s.

THE MUSIC is more than just background filler-it's Integrally related to the action of the film. Queen's "We Will Rock You," for example, accompanies a raucous street scene and Steely Dan's "Do It Again" is heard as DJ Eric Swan (Martin Mull) enjoys sex in the studio.

The songs, very simply, describe and com- ment on a way of life, one that is losing ground in the film and in the real world. Steely Dan's title tune sets the tone. "Gimme some FUNKED-up music," Donald Fagen sings, spitting out the words, creating an instant classic of double meaning, sloppy diction rock in the tradition of "Louie, Louie." Isthat"funked-up"or...

Jimmy Buffett's "Livingston Saturday Night" further explores the fan's relationship with the music of the day. "With any luck at all you might even get laid...." Joe Walsh's "Life's Been Good," meanwhile, presents a wry look at the rock star's existence.

"FM," both film and soundtrack, have been available for about a month now. While the record has sold quite well, the film itself has yet to make any real impression. The current batch of "rock films," In their subject matter and their audience acceptance, then, seem only to chronicle the passing of an era in American life.

"FM" laments that passing and those who do likewise will find this an entertaining film.

Books trace history, examine film technique

Review by Jim Flick

Here's a pair of books for film buffs. "The Detective in Hollywood," by John Tuska, fondly

remembers the detective film. The genre hit Its hlghwater mark in the film noir days of the 1940s and 1950s, when RKO, Paramount, MGM and the other studios churned out the films, in some cases, at the rate of one a week.

Some of these-"The Maltese Falcon," "Blue Dahlia," and "The Big Sleep"- are classics, while the Boston Blackle, Mr. Moto. Falcon and other serials mercifully are forgotten.

TODAY, ONLY a few flicks a year keep the genre on Its feet and few are successful. They range from Roman Polanski's finely crafted, highly successful "Chinatown," to "The Long Goodbye," Robert Altman's trashy attempted assassination of the genre.

This book remembers them all. Tuska sets out to trace the history of the detective film from "Sherlock Holmes Baffled," released in 1900, through last year's "The Late Show" and does a thorough, in-depth study.

No film cannlster was left unopened, including some very dusty ones. It Is a remarkable feat by Tuska. He hail managed to remember, locate, screen and review films rarley seen today.

PHILO VANCE, for instance, hardly is heard of today, yet Tuska managed to screen most of the films in the 1920s to 1940s film series and unearth enough information to discuss it in depth for 32 pages.

The volume progresses chronologically from Sherlock Holmes through Philo Vance to the glut of detective films produced In the 1930s, 1940s and 1950s, where It gets bogged down in discussion of every obscure potboiler movie or series ever made.

The last chapters pick up the pace, as Tuska discusses author Raymond Chandler, his works and their film adap- tations, film noir and concludes with a chapter on the con- temporary scene.

AMONG TUSKA'S best sections are his lengthy biographical sketches of Chandler and Dashiell Hammett as men and writers. Both were private men, almost as mysterious as the characters they created, and at least as interesting.

"The Detective In Hollywood" is an incredible fount of information about detective films.

"Getting Into Film," by Mel London, is a much more practical book.

London, an Academy Award-winning film maker, speaks to the budding film maker, giving advice on all angles of the art, from scripting and bow to get a good camera angle to budgeting and acquiring an agent.

He even lists the addresses of the major Blm unions and course offerings of the top university film programs.

It is one of the most complete film books on the market and is aimed at college-age film students.

Sensitive acting highlights war film Review by Jtm Flick

"Coming Home" is the latest in a spate of movies con- cerning an era some thought would be too painful (or Americans to deal with for decades-the Vietnam War.

That colossal blunder was romanticized only as long as America was involved and rarely then. John Wayne in "The Green Berets'' is the only good example that comes to mind.

"Coming Home" does not deal with the political Issues involved. Instead of justifying American involvement in Indochina or, more likely, politically condemning it, the movie shows some of the personal pain the conflagration caused.

A TRIO OF fine performances achieves that goal. Jane Fonda, as the wife of a Marine captain, makes the

most purposeful personal Journey. She seeks out the pain while waiting for her husband's return from the war. At first a naive military wife, she goes to work in a veteran's hospital and gradually realizes that war is more than fighting and glory.

It is maimed persons, such as paraplegic Sgt. Luke Tanner, played with amazing sensitivity by Jon Voight. At the opening, he's a frustrated gimp, but by the end of the movie is a man who can adjust to and cope with his disability and pain.

But the development of the soldier is tragic. Bruce Dern plays a Marine Corps captain who is a naive glory hunter. He

is eager to go to Vietnam, but quickly finds it more com- plicated than killing gooks and winning medals.

HIS DOWNFALL is foreshadowed early, even in his lovemaking with his wife.

The growth and realizations of the characters make the movie work. Fonda, one of the best actresses in con- temporary film, captures the flight from innocence and its frustrations and Voight assumes the rising confidence of a man who finds he's tougher than he ever had to be.

And film fans know what happens to Dern in most of his films. He's a tautly controlled psychotic, but a pathetic one. He suffers.

'Adventure'subject of Television quiz Review by

Michael J.Gneulette

Okay, everyone, grab your pens and pencils. Nobody wants to go into final exams unprepared, so I have

prepared a little quiz to loosen everyone up for next week. The subject is Television. No, not the boob tube, but the

new wave rock band from the Big Apple. I strongly suggest purchasing its second LP "Adventure" before taking the quiz, but there Is no penalty for not doing so.

KEEP YOUR EYES on your own paper and no fair looking ahead at the correct answers.

1. Tom Verlaine, composer, singer and guitarist for Television: a) is an imaginative guitarist, but plays with the grace and speed of Neil Young; b) according to Patti Smith, "...plays guitar like a thousand bluebirds screamng"; c) both a and b; and d) Gee, I can't wair for summer.

2. Verlaine's vocals: a) sound as if he is singing in a valium induced stupor, like Lou Reed; b) are characterized by quavering, like Reed; c) are simultaneously hypnotic and slightly monotonous and the perfect vehicle for his

Richard gives up rock, sings Lord's praises

CINCINNATI (AP)-Good goUy Miss Molly. It's Little Richard, but he no longer is rockin' and rollin'. He Is singing the praises of the Lord.

"I gave up rock 'n' roll for the Rock of Ages. I gave up silver and gold for the streets of gold and I would never go back," said Richard Pennlman, who became a recording star during the 1950s with such songs as "Tutti Frutti," "Good Golly Miss MoUy" and "Long TaUSally."

Pennlman does not perform rock music anymore, but still appears around the country under his old name, preaching and selling Bibles. He admits his name makes a difference.

"If It weren't for the rock music, people wouldn't know me," Pennlman said. "My name is a household word, sort of like General Motors or General Electric.

"MORE PEOPLE come to see me now. I'm serious. I'm not trying to sell anything and I don't have to be flam- boyant."

Gone are the pompadour haircut and flashy clothes. "I'm Just a poor little farm boy from Macon, Ga.," be

concluded. That is a long way from how he used to describe himself. "Look anywhere," he would shout from onstage."The

beauty's on duty. I am the beautiful Little Richard from way down In Macon, Ga."

Little Richard's life Is pivoting around his two-year-old conversion.

HE ADMITS the conversion came after the money slowed down, but also after a series of personal tragedies.

"I had got heavy into narcotics," he said. "First, I started with marijuana. Then I got into cocaine heavy. I was spen- ding a thousand dollars an ounce for It.

"Then one time a friend of mine called me and told me he wanted to see me. I waited and waited, but he never showed up. He was shot in the head and killed."

The former musician told how In a period of a year, three more friends met unexpected deaths.

"I'm not saying they were dope addicts, but then is when I got the message from the Lord."

Now, Little Richard says he is a changed man.

surrealistic lyrics; and d) all of the above.

S. IN "CAREFUL": a) the lead guitar sounds like the work of Zalman Yanovsky of the Lovin' Spoonful; b) the phrase "Your wine is Just sour grapes-Pour me a glass anytime I'm not there" played backwards sounds like "Gee I can't wait for summer"; c) Ohio became a state in 1803; and d) all of the above.

4. The album's finest number "The Dream's Dream": a) opens with a guitar riff that borrows heavily from the riffs in Led Zeppelin's "Dancing Days" and Pink Floyd's "Fearless"; b) has a stark, Pink Floydish instrumental bridge; c) both a and b; and d) I think I'D put off that term paper until tomorrow.

5. "Adventure" is a) great If you're deaf; b) Just the thing for those weened on the Doors' and the Velvet Underground's brand of Art: gut-level energy tempered with poetic and surreal imagery; c) a more accessible musical stance for Television, but one that does not compromise the artistic ideas set forth on Its debut LP "Marquee Moon; "andd) both bandc.

Since music is subjective by nature, there are no real right or wrong answers. The answers I picked were the following; 1. c); 2. d); 3. a); 4. c); 5. d). Students who buy "Adventure" score 100 percent regardless of their quiz answers and 10 bonus points go to whoever calls the radio station and requests the Kink-like "Days" or "The Dream's Dream."

Final weekend campus movie features music, romantic plot, Austrian Alps

Review by Mary Beth Beazley

Main Auditorium will be alive with the "The Sound of Music" this weekend as Rodgers and Hammerstein's big screen musical comes to Bowling Green.

This is a great movie. It's very wholesome and kind of long, but it's still a great movie. Above all, the movie is a love story set to music, but there are many different kinds of love: love of country, love of family, love of God, and of course, romantic love.

The main plot line concerns the love story of Maria (Julie Andrews) and Captain Von Trapp (Christopher Plummer). It begins when Maria, a postulant at the local nunnery, becomes

the governess for the Captain's seven incorrigible children. She wins thetn over with a unique blend of music and charm and eventually even the stern Captain is smitten. I hate to give away the plot, but she does not become a nun.

BASED ON the book by Maria Von Trapp, the film is set in Austria in the 1930s, when Nazism was Just beginning to rear its ugly head. The Nazi threat is present throughout the film, but it's not too frightening. These Nazis don't kill anyone, and at one point they're out- witted by a bunch of naughty nuns.

Director Robert Wise wisely chose to shoot 6n location in Austria and we ai-a, immensely grateful. The sight and sound of Julie Andrews singing on those mountain tops is too beautiful for words and the scenery adds an authenticity

that could not be reproduced in Hollywood.

The color throughout is magnificent and Rodgers and Hammerstein's music is marvelous. Even if you haven't seen the movie, you probably will recognize many of the songs, which include "My Favorite Things," "Do-Re-Mi,*" "Edelweiss," "The Sound of Music" and the ever popular "Sixteen Going on Seventeen."

The film gets sappy at times, but you'U enjoy yourself enjoying the sappiness. The characters are drawn with the broad strokes that make them easy to know, love and laugh at, and the romantic scenes are done to the hilt, with soft lighting and moonlit gardens.

So go. Have a good time. Smile and laugh, even.

SKILLFUL JUMP CUTS between Dern, Voight and Mist Fonda at the end drive home the point of the film and Jux- tapose the characters and their view of the war.

The affair that entangles Voight and Fonda is beautifully handled. While there is a bedroom scene-which is tasteful and meaningful, necessary, in fact-the everyday intimacy of their relationship is delicately captured. There is a touching chemistry between the two performers.

Perhaps more importantly, Voight is shown living a fairly normal life as a cripple. Casually. He simply gets into a car, pulling his wheelchair after him, without overemphasizing the fact that he can do it.

The relationship between Voight and Fonda is so thoroughly defined through camera angles that dialogue is almost superfluous. The significance of the look in their eyes is emphasized, the direction of their gazes weighted.

While at the end, the movie stoops to almost preaching anti-war slogans. What wars can do to individuals already has been so completely chronicled that the vocalizing is merely added emphasis. We've already seen what it can do and what it had already done by then.

Spinners' greatest hits

smooth Philly' sound Review by

Dan Axt

Are there certain musical groups whose singles you like, but you don't feel like shelling out all that coin Just for the sake of one or two tunes?

Or, you're not into buying 45s, yet you'd like to have a disc that is a collection of all that group's good tunes without putting up with the turkeys that serve as filler?

That's one of the purposes of a greatest hits collection. Quite often, however, there is a disagreement between

myself and the record company as to what makes a tune a greatest hit.

A company may Judge a song as being a great hit because it sold the most records, thus making them the most money. But I Judge a tune as being a great hit because of the way it sounds and how well it is performed.

IN THE CASE of the Spinners' latest album, "The Best of Spinners," Atlantic Records and I are in complete ageement. The disc is a collection of the group's biggest selling tunes and its best sounding ones, too. Maybe that's why they sold so well. Anyway, they're all here on one disc-the Spinners' top hits of the last five years.

Included are such tunes as "Mighty Love," "One Of A Kind (Love Affair)," "Sadie," and "They Just Can't Stop It (Games People Play)."

Messers, Wynn, Fambrough, Henderson, Jackson and Smith are presented here at their smooth, slick best and the album is a great example of the style of music that has become known as the "Philadelphia Sound."

House salutes Bob Hope WASHINGTON (AP)-TWs

time, In a reversal that brought both tears and twinkles to his eyes, the House played to Bob Hope.

And Hollywood's peerless comic, who so often has lampooned the Congress over his long career, at last got a Joyful taste of his own medicine.

There were tributes aplenty, all part of the Capitol's birthday gift to Hope-who turned 75 Mon- day. But the best salutes In a rare, rule-breaking special session of the House last Thursday were those straight from Hope's own bag of one-liners.

There was Majority Leader Jim Wright ID-

Texas), dead-panning to a packed gallery and about 260 Congress members on the floor: "The first time Bob Hope entertained Washington, he said, 'George...'"

Wright added, "and Ms first USO Christmas shows were at Lexingtoi and Concord."

Hope, wearing a typically loud sports coat and bright blue tie, was escorted into the House VIP box by Sergeant-at-Arms Kenneth R. Harding precisely at 10 a.m. with his wife and several grandchildren at his side. The members rose in a roaring ovation, the first of many during the one-hour salute.

Day in review From Associated Press wire reports

Inflation hike largest in more than a year Consumers were battered by a 2.4 percent monthly in-

crease In grocery prices In April and a 0.9 percent hike In overall prices, the worst In more than a year, the government said yesterday.

The April consumer price index confirmed the gloomy predictions of Carter administration economists that In- flation in the economy is worsening, although they still ex- pect relief later In the year.

Prices increased during the last three months at an annual rate of 10 percent, which if continued for the entire year, would make 1978 the worst year for inflation since 1975, when prices rose 12.2 percent.

HOWEVER, ONE KEY government economist said it

Hope to counter Soviet powers

would be a mistake to expect Inflation to continue to worsen at the same pace as during the first few months of the year.

"It's bad news, all right, whenever the consumer price index is going up nearly 1 percent in a single month,but let's not put a curve to the recent rates of increase and propel them off into the future," said William Cox, a Commerce Department economist.

"I think it would be a mistake to assume that these high rates of Inflation in the early months of this year represent a momentum that is gathering force and accelerating. That's not likely to be the case," he said.

ADMINISTRATION economists are already on record as expecting another big increase in consumer prices in May,

and say the earliest they now expect significant im- provement is in June.

Inflation already has caused the government to take steps to slow the economy to try to relieve pressure on prices. The Federal Reserve Board has Increased interest rates, and the Carter administration has trimmed its tax cut proposal and pledged to put a tighter lid on government spending.

It is a gamble on the government's part because if it ap- plies the brakes to the economy too hard, it could plunge the nation into a new recession. The alternative, however, would be an ever-upward spiral of prices that already has caused Americans to consider inflation the No. 1 problem In the economy.

AT A NEWS conference last week. President Carter said he thinks the high rates of inflation of the past few months are temporary, but he agreed that "the worst domestic problem we now have is inflation."

The administration now expects inflation for the entire year to be in the 6.5 percent to 7 percent range, up from its earlier prediction of a 6.1 percent increase in consumer prices. Prices rose last year 6.9 percent

Bill Brock, chairman of the Republican National Com- mittee, called the price report "staggering news" and called on Carter to make "an about-face" on his major legislative proposals, which Brock said would "drive up inflation even more."

NATO heads accept arms boost NATO leaders ended two days of

summit talks yesterday in Washington by agreeing to increase military spending by as much as $100 billion over the next decade to counter Soviet military power in Europe.

In agreeing to the proposal to raise their planned military spending by at least $40 billion to as much as $100 billion through the 1980s, the NATO leaders accepted President Carter's plea for more military might in Europe.

Carter, in a closing statement to the allied leaders, promised that the U.S. would view any attack on Europe as an attack against the U.S. and that retaliation would include the use of nuclear weapons against the Soviets.

SAYING THE SOVIETS and their Warsaw Pact partners "are now able to attack with large armored forces more rapidly that we previously believed," Carter added that "an attack on Europe will have the full consequences of an attack on the United States.

world "Let there be no misunderstanding.

The United States Is prepared to use all the forces necessary for the defense of the NATO area."

Under the program approved by NATO leaders yesterday, allied governments committed themselves to increasing production of tanks, anti- tank weapons and missiles and upgrading the U.S. capability to speed entire U.S. armored divisions across the Atlantic in event of a crisis.

IN ADDITION, the program foresees improvements in NATO's maritime capabilities, including commissioning of more warships, production of better air defense systems, and development of more effective tactical nuclear weapon forces in Europe.

A senior U.S. defense official,

speaking privately, said roughly half of the extra cost of the new NATO program will be funded by the U.S. He said that as a beginning, at least eight allied countries, including Canada, have agreed to hike their defense spending programs by 3 percent an- nually beginning in 1979, continuing for at least five years.

NATO's assessment is that the Soviet Union is increasing its defense budget by 5 percent a year and that already it is eating up between 11 percent and 14 percent of total Soviet national recourses.

Although the NATO leaders spent their two days here embroiled in the problems of Western Europe, there were intensive talks on the sidelines about the need for some sort of Western action to counter Soviet and Cuban influence in Africa.

Among the ideas being put forward was the concept of creating an African security force to counter the com- munist forces, which are estimated to include as many as 40,000 Cuban troops.

High court rules on death terms: nullifies one, sustains the other The Ohio Supreme Court upheld one death sentence and

nullified another in separate rulings yesterday. Wayne L. House, convicted in the 1975 murder of

Edward R. Emig in Coshocton County, had his death sentence affirmed. The high court nullified the death sentence imposed on Lonnie Black of Cleveland.

The court set House's execution for July 3,1978. House will receive an Indefinite stay pending a ruling by the U.S. Supreme Court on the constitutionality of Ohio's capital punishment law.

RECORDS SHOWED THAT House, while in custody, admitted during interrogation he was involved in the slaying of Emig whose body was found near an abandoned strip mine May 2,1975.

Later, House's counsel contended he had been denied his rights In the course of the interrogation.

However, the Supreme court, In its unanimous decision upholding lower courts, said the questioning occurred only after House had been advised of his rights and that

the questioning did not amount to an illegal interview. HOUSE WAS CHARGED with aggravated murder

along with kidnaping to engage in sexual activities. The court let stand Black's aggravated murder con-

viction but nullified his death sentence. In its unanimous decision, the court also returned the

case to Cuyahoga County Common Pleas Court for further proceedings.

Black was convicted in the shooting death of Dr. Margaret Tucker on July 8,1975 in front of the Western Reserve Historical Society in Cleveland.

THE VICTIM WAS shot shortly before 1 a.m. after leaving the nearby Veterans Administration Hospital where she had been employed for 10 years.

Two witnesses testified at the trial that Black told them he had to leave town because he had shot a woman who refused to give up her purse. Black eventually was arrested in Springfield, Tenn., and returned to Cleveland to face charges.

Surplus funds may help schools Gov. James A. Rhodes predicted

yesterday enough surplus state funds will be available for loans to keep all financially strapped Ohio school districts from closing next year.

Newspapers get equal treatment The Constitution provides no special

protection for newspaper offices against police searches, the Supreme Court said yesterday.

In a decision on police authority to search private premises and free-press rights, the high court ruled that police are under no legal obligation to first seek by subpoena the desired material from a paper's office.

The court's vote was 5-3, with two justices charging in a sharply worded dissent that the decision makes it more difficult for newspapers, and by

extension, all other news media, to carry out the job of informing the public.

YESTERDAY'S DECISION reversed ruling by a federal trial judge in

Police searches considered OK California and the ninth U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals.

Both lower courts had ruled that before police may obtain a warrant to search the premises of anyone not suspected of a crime, they must prove that a subpoena seeking the materials would not be practical.

The Supreme Court, in an opinion by Justice Byron R. White, rejected that reasoning.

"The critical element in a reasonable search is not that the owner of the property is suspected of a crime but that there is reasonable cause to believe that the specific things to be

searched for and seized are located on the property to which entry is sought," White wrote.

THE JUSTICES ALSO rejected the lower courts' belief that newspapers should be afforded even more protection because of free-press con- siderations.

"We decline to reinterpret the Fourth Amendment to impose a general constitutional barrier against warrants to search newspaper premises," the court said. "...Nor are we con- vinced...that confidential sources will disappear and that the press will

suppress news because of fears of warranted searches."

White did not go as far as saying a newspaper office has absolutely no more protection against such searches as other business endeavors.

HE SAID JUDGES and magistrates are free to take free-press interests into consideration before deciding whether to issue warrants.

The test case decided by the court centered on a 1971 search by Palo Alto, Calif., police and members of the Santa Clara County Sheriffs Department of the Stanford Daily office on Stanford University's campus.

Rhodes said a state loan fund to help troubled school districts "appears to be the soundest" of several alternatives discussed among his staff.

"This will not be a bailout, but a fiscally responsible way to keep schools open," the governor said. .

RHODES, WHO MET briefly with reporters in his office, said latest estimates indicate the state surplus will exceed $80 million by the end of the fiscal year June 30.

The Legislative Budget Office earlier estimated that Ohio's school districts will need $58.6 million next year to prevent closings. That figure does not include a $32 million deficit the Cleveland school district faces.

Asked how the surplus could be stretched to keep all schools open, Rhodes emphasized the $60 million surplus figure was just the minimum estimate.

"I THINK THERE will be enough money to lend schools to keep them all open," he said.

Rhodes said he does not believe the state can loan money to one school district without making loans to all financially troubled districts.

The governor has been attacked for not taking a leadership role in the schools issue by both his Republican primary opponent, Rep. Charles t. Kurfess, and Lt. Gov. Richard F. Celeste, a Democratic gubernatorial hopeful.

RHODES REPEATED HIS position that "schools will have top priority in distribution of surplus funds."

The loans to schools would only be temporary, and Rhodes said his ad- ministration will work with the General Assembly to establish some consensus plan-if not loans-to keep schools open.

"We cannot reach a final plan for at least two or three weeks, when the actual extent of the state surplus is known," Rhodes said.

Motta delays vacation

Bullet coach Dick Motta AP Pholo

Goffers prepare for NCAA s By Dave Lewandowskl

Staff Reporter

Bowling Green's men's golf team, the cream of the crop in the Mid-American Conference (MAC) this season, will represent the league at the NCAA Golf Championships at Eugene, Oregon, June 7-10.

The Falcons, after capturing the MAC title, will join Ohio State as the District Four envoy to the NCAA Championships. Also making the trip as independent individuals will be Scott Steger of Ball State, Mike Burke and Tom Rogan of Miami and Bob Sparks of Ohio University.

COACH JOHN PIPER is content with the fact that nine MAC players were named to the field.

"With nine players going to the tournament, people are finally beginning to recognize the MAC'S strength in golf," Piper said.

BG will be traveling with a six-man squad but only five players will be able to compete in the tournament. Steve Cruse, with the lowest average on the team will be in the number one spot while John Miller, Gary Treater, Pat

Dugan, Jeff Parsons and Gary Lust will also make the trip. Cruse, Miller and Treater will definitely be golfing while Dugan, Parsons aned Lust are vying for the remaining two positions by playing a 72 hole playoff.

A TOTAL OF 23 teams are invited to the tournament, and Piper has high hopes for his team.

"I would say a reasonable goal is to finish in the top 20", Piper said. "If we get some exceptionally good play we could be in the top 15."

On previous trips to the NCAA's, the golfers have placed 27th in 1972 and 23rd in 1973.

The Linksters have one obstacle to clear before they plan their victory celebration. Only 21 of the 33 teams will be left for the final round of competition. After 54 holes a cut will be made with the 21 lowest scores going on to the final round.

"IF WE GET team consistency as we have had all year it would enable us to make the cut," Piper said.

Piper rates defending champion Houston, along with Oklahoma State, Georgia, Brigham Young, Wake Forest and Ohio State as the chief contenders, with Oregon as a dark horse because of the home course advantage.

John Owen, sports editor of The Seattle Post-Intelligencer, Is subbing for Mel Durslag, who Is on a two-week vacation.

Along about this time each year Dick Motta can usually be located pumping gas in front of a general store in the com- munity of Fish Haven, Idaho, which is just past Pegram and Dingle. If you find yourself in Ovid or Mink Creek, you doubtless look a wrong turn at the brown dog.

These days, however, Motta has been spending time in one of the unlikeliest of locations, which happens to be Seattle, Wash. (If you find yourself in Tukwila or Tumwater, you took a wrong turn at the sea otter.)

ON ONE PREVIOUS trip to Seattle in 1974, as the coach of the Chicago Bulls, Motta earned a $2,000 fine and a seven-day suspension for laying hands on a National Basketball Association official, an act considered criminal only if you then neglect to push. Motta was miffed over an overtime loss to the Seattle SuperSonics, an occurence which is apparently not quite as traumatic today. Motta's Washington Bullets, as a matter of fact, are contesting the Seattle Supers for the professional basketball championship of the world.

And Motta is apparently willing to postpone his annual hiatus in Fish Haven and to travel to any ends of the earth in search of the prize that has eluded him these 10 years in the NBA.

Motta was pro basketball's coach of the year in 1971. He was offered the Seattle coaching job in 1973, ahead of Bill Russell. And he was expecterd to lead the Bulls to the NBA championship in 1975, as the result of a trade he executed with Dick Vertlieb.

THAT'S ANOTHER REASON Motta is probably not too crazy about Seattle Mariners baseball team. In 1974, however, Vertlieb was general manager of the Golden State Warriors and upon accepting that post he discovered an alarming fact.

"I discovered quickly that we were short of dollars," Vertlieb recalls today.

"I had to raise some money and it didn't take me long to realize I had two valuable properties."

Their names were Nate Thurmond and Rick Barry and since centers usually are worth more on the hoof, Vertlieb decided he would see if he could peddle Nate to Dick Motta.

DO YOU KNOW how to get to Fish Haven or Bear Lake? " Vertlieb asks. "First you take a large plane to Provo. Then you take a smaller plane to Ogden. Then you rent a car and if you're lucky you'll find Bear Lake."

John Owen VertHeb was lucky, both in his directions and his

negotiations. In return for Thurmond, Motta gave him "a considerable amount of Chicago money," a first round draft choice and another center named Clifford Ray.

The latter was just coming off knee surgery, some ob- servers predicted he'd never play again, and Ray was also suffering in Chicago with a reputation as something of a dog.

TO BE DEAD honest, I thought I had given Motta the world championship," Vertlieb admits today. "In fact they had a parade down State Street in Chicago when Thurmond arrived there."

The center who produced a championship that year, however, was named Clifford Ray. Almost incidentally, Dick Vertlieb of the Warriors was named executive of the year for the trade he made with Dick Motta.

IT WAS BUND LUCK, an absolute fantasy," Vertlieb acknowledges. "Oh, I'd done my homework. For example I learned that all of Clifford's teammates had adored him, even if management didn't. But never in my wildest dreams did I think Ray would be the guy to lead us to a championship.

But he did, this intelligent, gentle, wonderful guy. His personality did it. He played injured all year, wouldn't even tell us he had a broken tendon in one finger. This was the guy who had been called a dog in Chicago."

To reach the championship round that year, the Warriors knocked off Motta's Bulls in the seventh game. And although Vertlieb claims enthusiastic admiration for Dick Motta, the next time he wants to talk business he'll probably be given directions to Ovid or Mink Creek.

Torborg cancels workouts after tribe eruption CLEVELAND (API-

There was no workout for the Cleveland Indians Wed- nesday due to a promise from Manager Jeff Torborg.

Torborg made the vow in return for the 12 hits the Indians got in their game against the New York Yankees Tuesday night.

HE FIRST SAID he would call off practice if the team made 15 or 16 hits. Then he settled for a dozen after the

5-1 Indians victory. The tribe's victory came

after two straight shutout losses. Currently the American League team is 12- 8 at home and 2-4 against the Yankees.

"It sure has been frustrating," said pitcher Rick Wise, who picked up only his third victory Tuesday against eight defeats. "In my eight losses, we scored 12 runs. I've worked hard, thrown well.

It's just not shown up in the won-lost column."

THE ONE YANKEE run came on Chris Chambliss' seventh-inning homer. Wise said he gave Chambliss an inside slider. "It was down. It was a good pitch. He just got his bat on it." Yankee Manager Billy Martin said Wise pitched a great game, "and they made some super plays."

Torborg took note of some

"spectacular plays" by Paul Dade. "P.D. played a super game," the manager said.

Meanwhile, the Indians' Mike Vail said the reason he left the ball park early in Baltimore last Saturday was that he got a report that his 15-month-old son, Christopher, was sick. After being removed from the game for a pinch hitter, Vail went back to the hotel to join his family.

VAIL, WHO WAS fined $100 for leaving, said he believes that his threat of a

grievance is the reason he is not playing. He said he has been told the Indians will not renegotiate his contract.

Willie Horton said he feels better now that he has made his feelings about riding the bench known, Horton said. However, he will not prolong the issue. He said he will continue to keep in shape and do whatever he can to help the club,

"I like this club," he said. "I'd like to stay here as a coach or maybe a player- coach someday."

Reds down Braves ATLANTA (AP|-Pete Rose and George Foster smashed

home runs in a five-run third inning explosion that powered the Cincinnati Reds to a 10-4 victory over the Atlanta Braves Wednesday night.

ROSE BELTED his fourth homer, a two-run shot after a walk to Don Werner. Foster's ninth home run was a three-run blast that came after Ken Griffey reached on an error and Dave Concepcion singled.

Tom Seaver, 5-4, won his fourth in a row, going eight in- nings and yielding nine hits. Four of those hits came in the third when Atlanta rallied for four runs, including a two-run homer by Biff Pocoroba.

CINCINNATI ADDED three more runs in the fifth when Foster doubled and scored on Mike Lum's single. Werner had a bases-loaded sacrifice fly and Seaver a run-scoring single.

Junior Kennedy singled in another run in the sixth after two-out walks to Dan Driessen and Lum, and Lum hit his third homer of the season, a solo shot, in the ninth.

Steinbrenner, the millionaire shipbuilder who bought the controlling In- terest in the Yankees in 1973, said he was appalled at the lack of interest shown by owners, who left the conduct

of their enterprises general managers.

"I DON'T KNOW of any other business where a group of owners would get together only two times a year. We have a batch of new, aggressive, young owners In the game now and they are not going to be content with standing aside while their business goes down the economic drain."

He declined to specify the owners, other than himself. Steinbrenner outlined the following change which he foresees:

A reduction of the commissioner's powers with greater input by the owners.

"We must quit viewing the commissioner's office as a holier than thou scripture and let it sit in Judgment on all of our affairs. The owners must get Involved. They must go out and do things for themselves."
