According to Barron's Profiles of American Colleges such funding is a "further sign of the importance at-t a c h e d to its (UM's) intellectual endeavors.” However a report from Eugene Cohen Vice-President for Financial Affairs, seeming- ly challenges the Barron study. ‘The massive Infusion of federal dollars into private universities has been a mixed blessing," the financial report for the fiscal year ending in May. 1972 says. “Federal seduction with funded programs that are abandoned or changed after major commitments only adds to campus confusion and financial chaos." But inconsistencies in the Barron study, published by Barron’s Educational Series, go further than the financial status of the University. •In other areas the study, available Tor $1.50 on the market, contains information which clashes with condi- tions al UM.

For example the study says “students are represented on nearly all faculty commit lees . there is a general faculty and student confidence in the functioning of the Faculty Senate."

"A reasonable sound limit for the entire campus and surroundings will be enforced to assure moderate, harmless sound amplification. I feel, as the one who will be responsible for con- l>r. W ¡Ilium Under trolling (hr sound and setting a decibel limit, that we will with the help of the Engineering Department, be able to solve the sound problem, and control the sound for the benefit of all at the next UM concert." Poepelman said. One week after the Dec. 15 Manfred Mann concert. Dr. William Butler, vice president for Student Affairs, banned future campus concerts. “I directed Rill Shceder, director of Student Activities, to accept no patio reservations which would create a significant sound disturbance on the Union Patio, Butler said. "This will continue until such time that an appropriate sound policy can be developed," Butler said "It was impossible to listen to my radio. I resent my per-s o n a I environment being disturbed." one Eaton Hall student said. The HURRICANE has learned that several complaints were made during the Manfred Mann Corn ert, by Eaton Hall residents. Kevin Poeppelman, UBOG chifrman, in search of a solution to “the loud concert noise" asked Leonard Klatt, l M legal otfiver to research any ordinances that deal with noise.

Report Outlines Surplus Funds By CHUCK GOMEZ Associate Editor Following the release nf last week’s financial report, one point is still unclear to many UM students, a Hurricane Study reveals. If UM ended its 1971-72 fiscal year with a $1,076,000 surplus — why must next year's tuition he hiked? It is a valid question even administrators have difficulty answering, especially when its the first time in three years the University has operated in the black. Last year UM wound up with a $875,000 deficit. According tn the financial report — a 36 page study saying UM "like the bahy sea turtle must race for survival” — surplus funds are already earmarked, However, administrators say, the "real surplus" is only $231,995, not $1.07 million because $844,156 of The excess of $231,995 will he reduced by putting aside $844,156 as a reserve for medical liability insurance. The net excess of $150,000 will be added to reserve funds for use in "future contingencies." The financial report also outlines revenues of $86.3 million, compared to expen-d i t u r e s of about $85.2 million. the amount goes toward "designated unrestricted current funds" such as the School of Medicine Professional Income Plan. These funds are not available for the general operation of the University. The remaining “restricted" funds go toward general operations, providing salary increases for university employes and offsetting any additional decline in undergraduate enrollment. These funds in no way can affect tuition. But Eugene Cohen, UM Vice-President for Financial affairs, is quick to underscore the benefit of the surplus dollars. In the report he says, "In spite of increases in revenues during the 1971-72 fiscal year, it proved to be a difficult financial year. "Conditions do not appear to he as favorable (next year) as in the year completed,” he explains. Austerity moves included not filling vacancies left by employees and cutting back on equipment purchases, according to Cohen. > "Thft University of Miami is like the endangered animals,” Cohen says in the report. “Like the huge manatee it sometimes moves at a slow and awkward pace. Like the pelican it is often Continued on Page 3 Rv MARK TARGE Of Tha Hurricane Staff Carni Gras '73 is over, Ihe rides, the booths, and the crowds have all disappeared almost as suddenly and quickly at it appeared. Only a scarred intramural field and the memories remain. But in its wake Carni Gras has left behind some $36,547.75 in collected Avenues to he used in financing improved student facilities. “We're really pleased at this year's turnout, our goal was $30,000 and we reached over $36,000," Mike Hyman, Carni Gras Publicity Director said. Steve . Ackerman, Carni Gras chairmah, credits much of the success for this year's carnival to Howard Winne-man, Carni Gras advisor. “Winneman was one of the key elements to the outstanding profitable success of this year’s Carni Gras," Ackerman said. Ackean had nothing but praise for Winneman’s “be-yong the call of duty" devotion, time and interest. "What UM needs is more administrators like Howard Winneman” he added. Ackerman stressed the Hurting All Over? Aaar;;! It takes more than work to build a body — it *ak?s swe-t, plenty of it. But at the new Health Club it’s hardly a chore. There's thick shag carpeting, air conditioning and all the comforts of a professional gvm. Cost for students: $6 per semester.

The money raised will go to the Paul R. Yarck Fund, tn finance improvements in student facilities. In past years the Yarck Fund has helped resurface the tennis courts, installed lights on the intramural field, and financed a sound system for the Rathskeller. Hyman said that no estimate was available on the number of people who attended this year’s three-day carnival, but that it was certainly more than last year “On the average we made about''$2000 per hour," Hyman said. But it will still be several weeks before we can determine the exact amount of money going to this year's Yarck Fun. Expectations suggest in Ihe area of $8000, compared to Iasi year's $7000, Hyman noted that this year's Carni Gras had a far reaching effect outside of the UM community. standing job done by thr Carni Gras committee, Dr William Butler, Vice President of Student Affairs has sent an open letter to the Students, seen in today’s Hurricane, congratulating the committee on their work. "The manager of the Virginia State Fair came down to observe and he was impressed, and a new ride called the 'Ear-Out' made its U.S. dehut," he said. This Tear’s carnival went extremely smooth, considering the high potential for trouble when you have this many people and such large amounts of money present. “Everything went so smooth it was scary," Hyman said, “most people don’t realize the problems possible. That's why security Is so heavy.” Ackerman pointed out that most people aren't aware that some ten months nf planning, about 2000 hours per person, are needed to produce a Carni Gras of this magnitude. And as Carni Gras has become a tradition, so has l.amha Chi Alpha’s winning Çarni Gras's first prize. The frat won again this year for the 12th year in a row. In recognition of the out Campus Crime Lessens By BOBB HANE Of Tha Hurricane Staff The crime rate on the UM campus is low, and getting lower all the time, according to Fred Docrner, head Qf UM security. “Most crimes on campus are committed by outsiders. There are several public places on campus which draw a number of people from the greater Miami area," Docrner said. "And It is hard to control the actions of these people.” The UM security force handles a variety of situations. They attend to medical emergencies, domestic arguments which turn violent, theft and vandalism. Doerner says that students call security when they need something done and don't know where to call and "this is how we want*it." Security provides safety for student's cars by patrol activity in certain areas where the problems of Car theft and vandalism are the greatest. Thè greatest danger to women students is personal attacks, Doerner said. He offers three suggestions to women students. They are: be sensitive to situations of potential danger such as hitchhiking; walk in well lighted areas, and having someone accompany you at night and scream if you are attacked. In certain situations campus security has no authority, For example, the security force is not equipped for undercover work which is the new trend in drug control, Doerner said. Security also doesn't cover concerts on the patio. INSIDE • ’Cane Eye .... Page 2 • RAP .............. Page 2 • Stripper......... Page 2 • Festival ......... Page 3 • Editorials .......
