New UM President Should BeTheBest
By MARIA VEGA and MARK A. WOOSTER
NWI nditart
In the spring of 1980, after the Board of Trustees asked Dr. Henry King Stanford to stay on as UM president for one more year, the presidential search committee was restructured to hopefully succeed where the old one failed.
The new Trustee Search and Selection Committee has been meeting regularly ever since. The committee is chaired by James W. McLamore, who is also chairman of the Board of Trustees.
There are six other members: Charles Cobb, president of the Arvi-da Corporation; Morton Ehrlich, senior vice president of planning for Eastern Airlines, Inc.; Jose Bared, president of Bared and Co., Inc.; James Billings, chairman of Billings and Etzels Associates, Inc.;
. Melvin Greenberg, president of the
law firm of Greenberg, Traurig, Hoffman, Lipoff, Quentel and Wolff; and Stuart Patton, of the law firm of Patton, Canner, Segal, Zeller, King and Kubit.
In addition, an advisory group ' consisting of three deans and three members of the Faculty Senate Council attend committee meetings. The three deans are Dr. Arthur Brown of the College of Arts and Sciences, Dr. Norman Einspruch of the School of Engineering and Architecture, and Dr. Lou Kleinman of the School of Education.
The faculty members are Dr. Eugene Clasby of the Department of English. Dr. Mary Ann Fletcher of the Department of Medicine, and Dr. Howard Pospesel of the Department of Philosophy.
Before the search committee presents its final recommendations to the Board, it will consult with the Consultative Committee,
chaired by Soia Mentschikoff, and consisting of 12 deans and 12 members of the Faculty Senate Council.
McLamore said that the search committee would like input from members of the alumni association and student governments, and would like to have them meet with “seriously considered candidates."
The new committee is taking a slightly different approach in its search this year.
“Probably our approach this year is going outside and trying to identify top candidates in the country,” said McLamore. "Perhaps last year’s search was reacting to nomi-
nations by people in and friends of the University.”
McLamore believes that, with this approach, the committee's failure rate is likely to be higher, “but that is to be expected when you’re going after the very best. These people [prospective candidates! already have good jobs."
McLamore hopes that the name of the new president will be announced by Feb. 1,1981.

USBG Set To Remedy PSD Ills
By MARY CRONIN

The problems of UM Public Safety have prompted Undergraduate Student Body Government (USBG) President Alan Rubin and Secretary of Public Safety Tom Phillips to present a plan to UM’s Board of Trustees at this Friday’s finance meeting.
Rubin and Phillip's plan includes four major proposals;
•	A $2,000 raise across the board for all security officers.
“UM pays Its officers $12,600 as a starting salary, compared to $16,000 for Dade County officers, $14.000 for South Miami, and $15,300 in Coral Gables,” said Phillips.
•	The hiring of more officers to “at least meet the FBI recommendation of one officer per 500 people.”
•	Tuition remission in law school for security officers.
•	A call for the administration to reevaluate its priorities.
“We'rt asking the administration to place a stronger emphasis on the life and property of students and faculty," said Rubin.	1
According to Phillips, “Our officers have gone mostly to other departments in the area. We're In no competitive position to keep officers. Municipalities throughout the state of Florida offer an additional salary increase to officers who have had schooling — some college — beyond training.
“UM can't offer it [the additional salary increase) because we're privately funded. We can’t get those state funds for additional benefits," said Phillips. “We’re not even competitive on all-around areas. What our Department offers in benefits to its employees, in pay, in salary, and in career advancement opportunities does not compare to others. With that, officers have very little incentive to work for UM Public Safety, ” said Rubin.
Rubin and Phillips want to see a tuition remission In law school for officers, because some officers are students. According to Rubin, this could also attract more officers to the University.
Currently all campus employees receive full undergraduate tuition remission, and some graduate school remission; however, both law and medical schools, and all doctorate programs, are currently not under any form of tuition remission.
The campus covers an area of 263 acres and contains 279 buildings. The security force consists of 18 officers when fully manned. Currently UM is employing 10 officers, two of whom are in the police academy, according to Phillips.
“At any one time on campus there are four patrolling officers covering students and faculty — at a one to 5,000 ratio," said Phillips. “Assuming that we are at full force, and currently we’re not, there would be 1.1 sworn officers for every 1,000 students and faculty.
“We're down to a skeleton crew any night of the week," Phillips continued. “This campus can be dangerous. They send a back-up unit, and there is no one else [available) while that other officer is out. Anything else could be going on,” said Phillips.
To further stress their point, Rubin and Phillips listed a series of “startling and unacceptable” facts comparing UM campus security to other schools and sections of the community.
•	Miami has 2.1 officers per 1,000 persons.
•	Coral Gables has 3.0 officers per 1,000 persons.
•	South Miami has 3.2 officers per 1,000 persons.
•	Dade County has 2.6 officers per 1,000 persons.
•	The state of Florida has 2.8 officers per 1,000 persons.
•	Florida International University (FIU) has 5.1 officers per 1,000 persons. “And, there are no dorms or living facilities on their campus," said Rubin.
•	Florida A&M has 3.8 officers per 1,000 persons.
•	Florida Atlantic University has 4.3 officers per 1,000 persons.
•	University of Northern Florida has 4.5 officers per 1,000 persons.
At the end of the semester, the student security force and nightwatch teams will be disbanded because of a lack of funds. Rubin is working to acquire the funds necessary to keep these two forces in operation.
Nightwatch, an escort service for student protec-' tion, (x2318) operates Sunday through Friday from 9 p.m. to 1 a.m.
The student security patrol force is made up of students who patrol the campus from 7 p.m. to 3 a.m each night.
"Judging from the statistics, it’s obvious that the University is not willing to meet its responsibilities to adequately protect the life and property of the University community,” said Rubin. “Therefore, I am asking for student support to watch out for your friends and classmates. If there is nothing that the administration will do, we will have to watch out and take care of each other.”

May 1981, when Stanford is scheduled to retire. Stanford has stated that this year would be his last, and it does not seem likely that he would change his mind and choose to remain — as he did last semester — if the Board cannot decide on a suitable replacement.
Even more importantly, UM needs someone to set the tone for the future. Undoubtedly, a new president’s policies would differ in some manner from Stanford's. Anyone who is considering coming to UM would want to know what are the philosophies and goals of the man who is running the University.
If UM wishes to attract the best faculty, administrators, researchers, and students, it must have a president who is going to be here for many years. Thus, a new president should be fairly young.
UM's president must have a strong commitment to academic ex-
cellence, and to a continued increase in the quality of the University’s students and faculty. This implies that he would be a respected scholar and academician.
But a university president is more an administrator than a professor. At UM, he is responsible for running a community of more than 18,-000 people, and working with a large bureaucracy. Therefore, a president must have extensive experience in managing a large budget, and in operating a large organization.
UM has been searching for such a person for more than a year now, and has discovered that someone with such qualifications who would wish to come to Miami is not easy to find.
But although the task is difficult, the search committee must continue to strive for quality, and not settle for anything but the best.
Irish Shatter ’Canes’Dream

Coach Schnellenberger Pounds Hands In Exasperation ... in day of frustration for Hurricanes at South Bend
By PETER S. HAMM

SOUTH BEND, IND. — It was after 10 p.m. when the bus carrying Head Football Coach Howard Schnellenberger pulled up to the upper ramp of the Terminal Building at Miami International Airport.
The coach was noticeably down. He had just seen his Hurricanes lose to the Irish of Notre Dame, 32-14, their first loss in six games. He is not one to show it noticeably when
te
A passenger across the aisle from him said suddenly, “Coach, take a look at that ahead!” He looked. One hundred yards ahead, a crowd of close to 100 band members, Hurri-canettes, and students cheered to the tune of Miami U.
The coach got off the bus and listened to Don't Stop Till You Get Enough with his wife and son, with a slight smile on his face.
Then he turned, alone, and walked slowly across the street, into the darkness of the parking garage, pipe in hand.
That was the biggest show of emotion in the former newcomer since his arrival. He’s not a newcomer any more. He lost that Saturday night. But he’s found a home.
The aura worked.
The Notre Dame campus has an awful lot of surprises in store for visitors, especially a visiting football entourage. Teams that visit
South Bend never stay in South Bend, opting instead for Elkhart, a town about 15 miles from campus. Maybe it's because the “luck" of the Irish does enough to you when you’re on campus for four hours, and a whole day would seem almost torturous.
The University is the heart of Catholicism. The "Touchdown Jesus" Mosaic, and a “We’re number one Moses" statue show the link between football and the school. There may well be another link.
... ------ ----Ttofor a
field goal in the early going, a sudden gust of wind picked up just as the ball was traveling, and the kick went wide.
In the fourth quarter, when Notre Dame intercepted the ball and ran it back against the wind, the air became still, until the Irish pushed the score to 22-6 with the 53-yard return for a touchdown.
The oddest thing, though, was the loudness of the crowd, a crowd that made enough noise so that viewers in a soundproof press box heard it clearly. A loudness reminiscent of Miami versus Florida State, only magnified three times.
An encouraging din came from the 40-yard line, where over 3000 Miami alumni, administrators and students rocked to Pat Walker’s 20-yard touchdown pass received in the left corner of the end zone.

USBG Holds Contest To Pick Entrance
By JONATHAN W1NSON
Ml«! Writer
The Undergraduate Student Body Government (USBG) is sponsoring a contest to choose a design for an entrance-way to the University. The entrance would be located at the corner of Ponce de Leon Blvd. and Stanford Drive.
The contest is open to the entire University community, and there is no entrance fee.
“The practical purpose of an entrance-way is to eliminate the necessity of referring to Burger King when giving directions to the University,” said Mark Philbrick, USBG secretary of University Affairs. “The structure will also provide a tangible identity for the University in the community.”
An entrance had already been designed, but according to Tom Phillips, USBG secretary of Public Safety, “USBG took a survey of students to determine if they approved of the design by Rita Shuman;
the entrance-way proposal was overwhelmingly rejected.”
There will be two separate competitions. In the first competition, students will have two weeks to research and develop possible designs. This competition opened Monday, Oct. 13; all entries must be in by Friday, Oct. 24, at 5 p.m.
The second segment will be a 24-hour intensive design competition, opening Friday, Oct. 24 at 5 p.m., and closing Oct. 25 at 5 p.m. During this time, assistance will be available from the art and architecture departments in matters pertaining to construction cost and feasibility.	‘
Three finalists will be chosen by the selection committee, which will be composed of UM students and faculty. One each will be chosen from the two-week and the 24-hour competitions, with an overall runner-up selected as the third finalist.
A separate competition will be held among and for South Florida design professionals. Their propos-
als will be judged along with the three student finalists.
The final selection will be made by a vote of the students during the week of Homecoming. Nov. 3-7. The winner will be announced at the Homecoming Dance, to be held Nov. 8 at the DuPont Plaza Hotel. Prizes will be awarded to the three finalists, and the winner will have his name placed on the completed entrance-way.
The winner's design requires the approval of a number of committees and boards on campus and in Coral Gables, including the Campus Beautification Committee, the Facilities Planning Board, and the Coral Gables Zoning Commission.
“This contest has been set up as a result of student input concerning other proposals for this entrance-way," said Alan Rubin, USBG president. “I encourage continued student input so that we will have a gateway to our University that all of us can be proud of.”
Noted Local Attorney Appears At Beaumont
Rubin Will Speak At Pre-Legal Meeting
Rubin

Prominent South Florida attorney Ellis Rubin will speak at a meeting of the Pre-Legal Society, tonight at the Beaumont Cinema.
The meeting will begin at 7 p.m., and Rubin is scheduled to begin his lecture at 8 p.m. The topic of the lecture has not been announced.
Rubin is best known for his unique “television intoxication" defense of teenager Ronnie Zamora. In 1977, Zamora was convicted in the shooting death of a neighbor — an elderly woman whose house he had allegedly broken into.
Rubin argued that Zamora was so influenced by watching such violent television shows as Kojak and Starsky and Hutch that he was unable to distinguish reality from fan-
tasy. The jury, however, was unconvinced by the defense.
Local attorneys later critized Rubin's actions. In attempting to have Rubin disbarred, they charged that he had placed his interests above those of his client.
The case received national publicity, and was the subject of a Public Broadcasting Service program. It also served as a test case for the Florida law allowing cameras in the courtroom.
Rubin is also known for his attempts to combat television blackouts of sports events. He once filed a suit against the National Football League to lift such local blackouts. A feud subsequently developed between him and Miami Diolphins owner Joe Robbie, and Robbie re-
fused to sell him season tickets.
The attorney’s recent activities include an unsuccessful bid to capture the Republican nomination for the U.S. Senate seat currently occupied by Richard Stone. He finished fourth in a field of six contenders.
Rubin is now representing Bill Haast, owner of the Miami Serpen-tarium. Haast has been distributing the controversial drug "PROven," which is derived from snake venom. Haast claims that the drug is beneficial to victims of arthritis and multiple sclerosis. He has ignored a Food and Drug Administration order to discontinue distribution of the drug.
Two weeks ago. Rubin began hosting a radio talk show on WINZ. The show airs on Sunday nights.
