Air-Conditioning Shut Off
Stanford Demands Energy Cutback
By DAVID TEPPS
Hurricane Editor
In an effort to conserve energy and money, University president Dr. Henry King Stanford has ordered the air-conditioning in most of the classroom buildings to be shut off, along wilh a host of other fuel-saving maneuvers.
Iron Arrow, oldest recognition society for men at the UM, tapped 24 new members during Homecoming tapping ceremonies on Thursday, November 7.

building) or in the Towers,” Borek said, referring to the dorm areas also.
Following recommendations from a faculty-led committee on saving energy, Stanford also instructed physical plant to establish criteria for lighting on campus.
Borek added that starting this month, close statistics will be kept on energy use to gauge the effects of the conservation moves.
The directives from the president’s office did con-tain many provisions though. Areas such as the Lowe museum, music school rooms with pianos, and the billiard room and bowling alleys will not be affected. Many other buildings will have their air conditioning continue except from 11 p.m. to 7 a.m.
According to the genera! policy on cooling, Stanford’s memo indicates the standard temperature should be 77 degrees in the dormitories.
One resident hall worker told the Hurricane that if the outdoor temperature should dip below 60 degrees, all dorm air conditioning would be shut down.
All of these actions follow a revelation by the University last week that UM was about $560,000 in the red for the 1973-74 school year.
Pub Elections Set
Elections for editor of the Hurricane and business manager for student publications will be held on Ihursday, November 21. at 3 p.m. in the Student Union.
The vote will be conducted by the Board of Publications, which requires candidates to be screened by publications advisor George Southworth.
Southworth will conduct interviews from 9-11 a.m. in his office in the Communications "shacks” on Nov. 15, 18 and 20.
The position of Hurricane associate editor has been dropped by the Board as an elected position in a cost-cutting maneuver.

In Homecoming Parade
Sigma Phi Nothing Car Puns Over
By STEPHEN COAN
Of The Hurricane Staff
Graduate Assistant Jim Hillencamp, dressed as a convict from the Keystone Cop era, was accidentally run over during the Homecoming parade.
Hillencamp and 960 Resident Advisor Joe D’Ambrosio, dressed as a Keystone Cop, had just finished their slapstick routine.
The “officer" hit the “convict” over the head with his nightstick while the convict hit the officer over the head with a ball and chain attached to his wrist. Eventually, they would both pretend to be knocked out.
As they were both lying in the street, feigning unconsciousness two blocks before the end of the parade, Hillencamp’s left leg was run over by a car representing Sigma Phi Nothing.
Alumna Given Award
“Right before my leg was run over, I remember the crowd screaming, ‘Watch out for his leg,’ but it was too late,” Hillencamp said.
Claire Cohen Weintraub, Miami civic leader, received UM's 1974 “Alumna of Distinction” award at the annual Homecoming dinner-dance at the King’s Bay Yacht and Country Club, Saturday Night, November 9.
UM President Henry King Stanford presented the award, a chair with the UM seal, to Weintraub, a past president of the UM
Alumni Association.
Said Dr. Stanford: “This award, the highest granted by the Association, is predicated upon the criteria of truly distinguished achievement, personal or professional, which may or may not in lude service to the university and the community. In this insta ice, we recogmze an individual who has be n honored by both for outstanding volunteer service. j
After the accident he said his leg felt as though he had a bad cramp in it.
Hillencamp rode the rest of the parade on the back of an MG sports car.
After the parade he was escorted to the Health Center by three Keystone cops and his fellow convict who carried him to the delight of the Health Center staff.
He was admitted that night for observation, and on Thursday X-rays showed a bone in his leg had been bruised.
After the accident, he used a cane to help relieve the pressure on his left lev

The fire i. [ rent!; originated in an athletic slur age loom, which was . iso the exact site of a similar fire incident just three months ago, Wood said.
“It looks to me as it it was arson," Wood said. “Everything points to it. It’s under investigation right now."
Library Stacks But Privilege
Aren’t Open To All Lor Some Will Slav
By LESLIE TANNENBALM
Of The Hurricane Staff
Although UM’s library has nine floors, most undergraduates are allowed to use only three, and it seems
unlikely the "stacks” will be open to the entire student body in the future.
The "stacks” are floors four through eight of the library that are filled wdth
hooks, with small study areas along the sides of (he walls.
The "stacks” are not open to all students. Only faculty, seniors, graduate
and honor students, excluding law and medical students, are admitted.
The policy has been in existence since the library has been opened and the chance of changing it at this time is highly unlikely, circulation librarian Paul Eeehan said.
Feehan said there are two basic reasons for the policy. This portion of the library is a “graduate libra r y and a restricted area,” he said. “It must be a quiet study area.”
Also, each floor has only 60 seats. This is a relatively small number and (he library is allowing the “maximum feasible number Into the area now," Feehan said.
Any undergraduate with a serious research problem is allowed in if he has a request from a member of the faculty. Feehan said he has always taken up anyone who has asked to see the stacks and no request has been ignored.
“We are filling the needs any undergraduate can have," Eeehan said.
Feehan said another reason only a select group is admitted into the “stacks" is the more people they let in, the more damage occurs. He pointed to the inspection sign in the elevator which had been written on and wrinkled and to a "no smoking” sign which had been torn off the wall.
He said it is a kind of "on your honor” place, not carefully watched by the staff.
“When many students are together there is a tendency to start working in groups and becoming noisy. Students can work together in other parts of the library,” he said.
There is a trained staff who can find the books quickly and send them down to any student who needs them, he said.
Student opinions vary on the subject.
“As long as the books are accessible to the undergraduate students, I have no argument with the polity,” freshman Diane Black said.
Another freshman, Lois Janavcy, argued that she did not think the policy was fair as a matter of principle. She said all students deserved the same rights.
Sophomore Brenda Gross Bartnick agrees with Jana-vey.
"I think the policy should he changed because above average students that don't necessarily become honor students still need access to stacks. It is a waste of time when you can't look through the books to see if they contain the information you want.”
Homecoming Chiefs Hear Professionalism Charges
By MARC EE TAXMAN
Assistant News Editor
The Homecoming Executive Committee has found several fraternities in violation of rules pertaining to house decorations and floats.
“It was found that Pi Kappa Alpha (PKA) and Sigma Alpha Epsilon (SAE) made use of a UM alumni, Ron Kazuda. who is also a graphic artist and member of a graphic arts firm,” Homecoming Overall Chairman Kenny Leiberman said.
“PKA used Kazuda in an advisory sense and SAE used him in a physical sense concerning house decorations and float building,” Leiberman said.
"It was brought up at Homecoming Executive meeting that Kazuda has been giving his help since 1969 and that he is available to any organization that asks,” Leiberman said.
“The next decision made was how much penalization SAE should receive. Each committee member gave their opinion as to how much they should be penalized. The average was taken. It was unanimously decided that SAL should be penalized 15 points,” Leiberman said.
“In the voting there was some controversy because there wasn't an equal number of ZBT and SAG representatives voting. So we eliminated any representation from
each fraternity and the vote still came out to 15,” he said.
“Kazuda did admit he made suggestions for the design of SAE’s and PKA’s house decorations and floats," Leiberman said.
Kazuda was unavailable for comment.
“It should be brought out that Vaughn Parade, a professional parade builder for the Orange Bowl Parade, was used for advice so it is hard to say that a graphics designer shouldn't be used,” Leiberman said.
"It is true the spirit of Homecoming is for alumni and the events specifically mentioned are for the undergraduates. The award is presented to undergraduates, not almuni. But the true meaning of Homecoming is to welcome back alumni to campus," lie said.
" t he objective of this year’s Homecoming as is past is to include alumni, faculty and administration in as much as possible and to be useful iri advisory capacity because alumni have knowledge of past mistakes," he said.
“In my eyes there were two winners of Homecoming, both ZBT and SAE. If I could give overall to both I would. Unfortunately each contest has a certain amount of points given and the points are the deciding factor,” Leiberman said.
"Everyone deserves congratulations because Homecoming '74 was the best in 25 years according to one alumnus and probably more," Leiberman said.
