Acadtettiic reformers look back Right criticism, wrong remedy NewYorkTimes NEW YORK " Forgetting our own frailties, we act as if having a vision was sufficient, that our dream would painlessly become reality." This is the reflection of two leaders of the revolt of the lS60s against traditional education and . the public ' school system. Joel Denker and Steve Bbaerman were among the radical reformers who founded " free" or alternative schools and dreamed of liberating new generations of children to learn without subservience to the system any system. - Together, they wrote " No Par-ticular Place to Go: The Making of a -- Free High School" published by Simon & Schuster in 1972. Last month, the book was republished by Southern Illinois University Press, Insight butwith an " Afterword" that may be more impoftant than the book itself.

Denker is professoroflabor studies at the University of the District of Columbia and Bbaerman is editor of " Pathways," a journal published in Ann Arbor, Mich., that seeks to in-tegrate . old and. new forms of knowledge in science, religion and metaphysics. " This Afterword," the authors say, " provides guideposts to assist future alternative school builders in adapting' ' what " we learn . .". ( to) create the kinds of schools we need in the ' 80s." These chastened rebels the. creators of what they called the New Educational.' Project, found that " many of the young people who came to us confused and shellsbocked left more bewildered than when they They recall that, while they knew all the flaws of the public schools, they werej'liroited by inexperience, au& ourown ideological baggage" in 5Sr efforts to right the wrongs that made the public schools appear ( See YESTERDAY'S, Page . f Budget saves M. U. programs from more cuts By Peggy Slasman Missourian staff writer The University general operating budget, which will be presented Friday to the Board of Curators, imposes no further program reductions and provides for Columbia campus salary increases averaging 8.5 percent for faculty, administrators and professional staff and 9.8 percent for support staff. The budget also allows each of the four campuses to receive a 16 percent increase for library acquisitions and an 8 percent increase for expense and equipment The only program reallocations on the Columbia campus are the $ 1.8 million approved last December to fund the mid- ye- ar salary increases. Some of the money was collected from departments in the 1981- 8- 2 school year, while other departments will lose funds from the 1982- 8- 3 budget. The additional $ 500,000 needed will come from ad-ministrative areas. The 1982- 8- 3 budgets from all four campuses, as well as the system's central administration budget, will be presented to the nine- memb- er board at its monthly meeting, which begins today at the Kansas City campus. Faculty and administrative salary increases, recommended by the system's central administration, differ slightly for the four campuses, with 8.7 percent increases proposed for the Kansas City and St. Louis campuses and an 8.3 percent in-crease proposed for the Rolla campus. A 9 percent salary increase is proposed for central ad-ministration. The 1382- 8- 3 proposed University system budget is about $ 275 million, which includes $ 170 million in state appropriations and $ 105 million from other sources. Last year the system received about $ 250 million $ 153 million from state funds and $ 97 million from other sources The budget calls for the Columbia campus to receive $ 80 million of the state appropriations and $ 47 million in non- sta- te funds, which will provide about $ 127 million for the 1982- 8- 3 fiscal year. In 1981- 8- 2 the Columbia campus received $ 115 million $ 72 million from state appropriations and $ 43 million from non- sta- te sources. Included m the Columbia campus budget is an initial allocation of $ 445,000 for research incentive and leave programs. In previous years, no specific funding for leaves and research was available. This year the adrninistration made it a line item to promote faculty development and research, said Duane Stuckey, University director of institutional research and planning. He said it was an important fund because " we need to generate new research projects." Kansas City is the hardest hit of the four campuses. Faced with the chore of cutting about $ 2 million from his budget, UMKC Chancellor George Russell presented to University President James Olson recom-mendations that would eliminate 93 positions 12 faculty members as well as administrative support, secretarial and plant operation positions. His recommendations include cutting $ 850,000 in academic affairs, $ 825,000 in administrative affairs, $ 125,000 in student affairs and $ 25,000 in development- - PLO pushes to talk with the U. S. United Press International Israel ' said its Christian alhes captured a commanding guerrilla outpost at a college annex in south Beirut Wednesday and the badly outgunned PLO appealed to Washington for " face to face" talks to end Israel's 11- d- ay in-vasion before a bloodbath engulfs the capital. Saudi Arabia warned it may take " the necessary measures,'.' including a possible oil embargo if President Reagan fails to force Israel out of Lebanon. Egyptian: Foreign Minister KamaL Hassan Ah met with Reagan for 45 minutes andwarned " risks of a larger conflict loom, over the horizon." j Reagan, who meets Monday with, Israeli Prime Minister Menachem Begin, promised to " employ every effort" to form a " lasting and enduring" cease- fir- e. But Israel said its 25,000 troops willremain in Lebanon until a cease- fir- e guarantees its demands a 25- mi- le ( 40- kilomet- er) security belt free of guerrillas on Israel's northern border, total withdrawal of PLO. and Syrian forces and creation of a strong central Lebanesegovernment . Israeli Army Chief of Staff Lt. Gen. Rafael Eitan, on a frontline tour of Beirut, said the, invasion crushed the PLO. In Sidon alone, Israel captured hundreds of tons of weapons in 30 warehouses. One contained 60 tons ( 54 metric tons) of long- rang- e Katyusha rockets, Sagger anti- tan- k rockets, grenades, am--" monition, Kalachnikov rifles and artillery shells. The State Department said it " was prepared to talk to the PLO" only if the PLO recognizes Israel's right to exist a UJ. policy for three administrations. State- ra- n Beirut Radio and government sources said Israeli troops, backed by tanks and artillery, stormed the guerrilla stronghold at the Lebanese University School of Sciences overlooking the airport, five miles ( 8 kilometers) south of Beirut. But an Israeli military spokesman in Tel Aviv denied Israeli troops were involved in any combat Wednesday. He said Israeli- backe- d Christian Phalangists and the PLO battled at the university. The PLO news agency WAFA denied losing the outpost and claimed guerrillas killed 14 Israelis in battles amid orange groves in the occupied costal cities of SidonandTyre. The university annex with its sweeping hilltop vistas affords Christian Phalangist troops the chance to lay siege to 6,000 guerrillas trapped in west Beirut and also attack nearby leftist enclaves and guerrilla refugee camps. PLO chief Yasser Arafat inspected military posts during toe day and later met with Prune Minister Shafik Wazzan to discuss diplomatic efforts to end the combat. Palestinian guerrillas in the capital manned last- ditc- h mobile strongholds at roads in south and west Beirut, and dug in with artillery around a Christian cemetery. Arab analysts feared total collapse of a six-- day truce between Israel and Syria if the the Israelis pushed further. Eitan said Israel would let the 1,000 Syrians m Beirut leave with their personal weapons, but Damascus rejected a similar plea Tuesday to pull back to the Bekaa Valley where the bulk of Syria's 40,000 peace- keepi- ng forces have been stationed since the end of the 1976 Lebanese civil war. Hani al Hassan, Arafat's chief adviser, declared the history of the PLO's 18- ye- ar revolution will be decided this week, and urged U. S. leaders to enter direct talks to avert Beirut's destruction. " The Americans must practice a new policy toward the Palestinians and talk with us face to face," he said. " To speak is a step. If the Americans make a step to us, everything can be discussed," al Hassan added. " Unless you tell me what you want and I tell you what I want, how can we ever settle anything?" Argentine minister offers resignation United Press frtenational The architect of Argentina's in-vasion of J the Falkland Islands, Foreign Minister Nicanor . Costa Mendez, submitted his resignation Wednesday in the aftermath,, of the Argentine- - defeat that the military command blamed on U. S. support for -- Britain. President -- Leopoldo Gaitieri reportedly turned i down the resignation.' .. In a" communique Wednesday explaining, the reasons for Britain's '' partial truarzph" in. the Falklands war, the Argentine military com- - mand charged that U. S. and European support for Britain played a key role intoe defeat of its forces- - But the command, saying its troops were outnumbered and its equipment outclassed, said the cease- fir- e signed Monday only ended the battle for the islands' capital of Stanley and h - eluded only forces stationed on the islands. In London, British officials warned mat " hundreds" of the 15,000 war- wear- y Argentine prisoners on the islands could die from exposure, starvation and disease because there is not enough shelter to protect them from the bitter cold. Prime Minister Margaret That-cher said she would hold some of the prisoners, including officers, until the Argentine junta confirmed that all hostilities had. ended on the reclaimed British territory in the South Atlantic But Gaitieri, in a nationwide ad-dress Tuesday evening preceded by massive anti- governm- ent riots by a crowd of 10,000 people, made no mention of defeat. Gaitieri, commander of the Argentine army, warned Britain and any internal " traitors" that Argentina would keep waging its battle for the islands. At no tune did he mention the surrender document Argentine Gen. Mario Menendez and British field commander Gen. Jeremy Moore signed Monday in the islands' capital of Stanley. British officials released a copy of the document, which showed Menendez had crossed out the word " unconditional" before surrender. The agreement called on the Argentines to turn over all weapons and ammunition and assemble at points named by British com-manders. Costa Mendez, who Tuesday blamed the Argentine defeat on the supenor weaponry and intelligence capacities of Britain and the United States, turned in his resignation during a four- ho- ur meeting of the junta Wednesday morning, govern-mentsources said.. Military sources said the junta was angered by Costa Mendez use of the word " surrender" Tuesday when talking of the Argentine defeat. Government sources said Costa Mendez began planning Argentina's invasion of the Falklands as early as last year, after Argentine officials became impatient with status negotiations with Britain that had dragged on for over 16 years. Stephens halfway to $ 12 million ByKarenM. Brown Missourian staff writer Stephens College has reached the halfway mark in its four- ye- ar fund- raisi- ng drive and may surpass its $ 12 million goal, college officials said. Wednesday., Next week the college will begin the second, more intensive phase of its campaign. Officials hope that phase will " involve most of Stephens' 40,000 alumnae throughout the country. The fundaising drive,' started in June 1383, is coordinated by a group of " Task Force- 150- " volunteers The goalis to raise $ 12million by the time the college's 150th anniversary celebrations conclude in 1384. The money is to be used for a variety of projects," including a new $ 1.2 million playhouse, which will be built in the fan. Exactly two years into the drive, the college has raised nearly $ 3 million and. is on schedule, said Beverly Holsman, coordinator of the anniversary fund. The bard fund- raisi- ng work begins June 24, however, when Mrs. Holsman goesto Houston to start a pilot fund- iraisi- ng project that may be repeated in 18 U& cities including Columbia where Stephens has a significant numberof alumnae. The Houston project, Mrs. Holsman said, is " like atrial balloon. We're going to enlist volunteer t workers ana instruct them in solicitation of the alumns. The goal in each city is to personally call on every known Stephens person in that area. That's an ambitious goal." Without being contacted per-sonally Stephens alumnae last year gave $ 535,000 in unrestricted gifts to the college This year, with unrestricted gifts and anniversary fund contributions combined, the college hopes to collect at least $ 800,000. Mrs. Holsman believes that the $ 12 million goal can be reached and even surpassed. " When the goal was set we wanted to have an achievable goal, and certainly the underlying philosophy in any effort of this magnitude is to surpass that goal," she said. " I would have every reason to believe that knowing the commitment of Stephens people, that we may well surpass that goal." The specific objectives of the anniversary fund are to raise $ 3 million for each of several areas. The areas are increased support and endowment of instruction and scholarships, priority building replacement and renovations and increased unrestricted gifts for general college support. Gifts made to date nave been large and have come from curators and long- tim- e friends of the college, Mrs. Holsman said. In town today Noon Concert by the Mike Hutchinson Band, Village Square, Ninth and Walnut. 7: 38 pan. " South Pacific" will be performed by the Columbia Entertainment Company at Rock Bridge High School-- Tickets are $ 4 for adults, $ 2.50 for children. Index Business. ?
