The lengthy report of the Fac- ulty Assembly's Committee on Research Policies, released yes- terday, suggested changes in current policy that would have minimal impact on the $10.3 mil- lion in classified military re- search done at the University, No major substantive changes were suggested. However, in the long run the recommendations, which stand' a good chance of being ratified by the Faculty Senate and imple- mented by the Regents, could th curb the volume of classified re4 search\being done at the Univer- sity. The major recommendations ' were.

A tight lid of secrecy has surrounded selection of the new man, an educator from a non- Michigan university currently on leave to work in Washington. Vice President and Chief Finan- cial Officer Wilbur K. Pierpont has also reportedly won a major vic- tory on his request for a state cir- cuit court appeal regarding Public Act 379. By a vote of 6-2, the Re- gents are endorsing Pierpont's re- quest to challenge the law which requires the school to bargain col- lectively with unions. President Robben W. Fleming is reportedly opposed to the court challenge. A nationally known labor mediator, Fleming has ad- vised the Regents he thinks the University will lose the court suit.

Restless Vail Demands Equal Time front FCC By DAVID SPURRt As 45 University students in the Vail Cooperative house dining room gorged themselves on potato chips and coke Wednes- day night, President Johnson's distinguished voice blared over -the TV set, lauding the nation's abundance of cars, TV's, and colleges, in that order. Suddenly the President inquired, "Why, then, all this rest- lessness?" A student choked on his Frito. "Why, that means us!" a girl at the other end of the table screamed. "He's asking us a question, so let's answer it." Twenty residents chipped in to send telegrams to the Federal Communications Commission, the three major TV networks, and the two major news services. Their statement ran, "We, the Representatives of the Rest- less (ROR) demand equal air time to present our perspectives of the state of the union." The Associated Press was on the alert. Within hours a 25- inch string of paper titled "Equal Time" was gurbling out ofj AP machines all over the country. CBS rushed in a camera crew t to televise the "ROR". One of the five students who signed the telegram, Walter f Shapiro, '69, blurted out, "Well, how else can you respond to a speech as absurd as the President's but by demanding equal air time?" : Il '( it ' " i 1 1 t I . 1 l f e r Y r i s t e 1 f Regen t By PAT O'DONOHUE and RICHARD WINTER "You have no idea how muc more human you seem," Michas Davis of Nakamura co-op said ye, terday to the Regents.

Yesterday's public hearing o the question of women's hours an visitation policies was ostensibl held as a Regental review of th Residence Halls Board of Gover nors' decision to allow individu, residence halls to determine the: own hours and visitation proced ure.

It was that kind of meeting. Chester, Mrs. Daenzer, Davis an Student Government Council Preq ident Bruce Kahn, '68, all expres sed the hope that the Regent would hold other public meeting; "I want to thank you for holdin this meeting. It's a good thing - especially if it is the first of long, long series," Davis said. University President Robbe: Fleming,who said the Regent would announce a decision on th They're Human Too, meeting, was the man in the mid- h die. He had the job of limiting the speakers to the issues involved ' -hours and visitation. Fleming s said afterward that "The meet-; ing went pretty well. Some people is used it as a political platform, n but it was a useful kind of ex- d perience." ly One Regent remarked following e the meeting that "it was like - something off-Broadway." Two al Panhellenic alumnae told Flem- ir ing that "we really enjoyed this," - and another Regent complimented s the President, telling him that d "you were very funny this after- " noon," As a representative of Univer- sity-owned and University-related housing Feldkamp reiterated his d support of the Board of Governors' n decision. He reviewed the progres- sion of the liberalization of wo- f men's hours from changing the ecurfew for all women from 10:30 to midnight in 1958, to the elimin- - ation of sophomore women's hours f last year. yer.Good Efforts He assured the Regents that "with t he lessening of restrictions we havedmade concerted efforts to provide positive sup ports through Sprograms and personnel." o! Braun, representing the Board of Governors, addressed the Re- d gents as members of his own gen- - eration explaining to them that modern students take "a critical stance towards the status quo.

After consider- s ing the "mature, proper requests 1e tatwent through the proper e channels, the Board of Governors was impressed, but skeptical," he! said. Upon comparing the requests with the "flesh and blood" real- ities, they found that an "over- whelming majority of the students were anxious and determined "to establish rules governing their own s lives. r He also expressed the belief that not many houses would drastically e change their policies.

STAFF MONEY CUT: New Dental School Faces Fund Cutback By DANIEL ZWERDLING The new $17.3 million dental school should open the first of 0 four new buildings a year from now, but University officials are not yet sure they will have the money to staff all of it. Originally, Dean William Mann of the dental school said he need- ed $1.07 million more than his current annual budget of $1.85 million to hire the new staff the school will require during its first fiscal year of operation. However, he had to cut that increase figure almost in half when the State fices, a library and the Kellogg building annex. Plans call for in- creasing the enrollment from 213 to 307, and as a result, the staff size would double. State appropriations of $11.3 million and grants of $6.03 mil- lion from the Kellogg Foundation and the federal governnent have assured that the physical plant will be completed, but until the Legislature passes the 1968-69 budget, there will be no assurance the new school will be adequately; staffed. Mann's already serious budget3 when it will operate only half of that year. But, according to Asso- ciate Dean Robert E. Doerr, "There's a great shortage of den- tal teachers and researchers, andf we need lead time to find and hire the new staff." Nevertheless, University offi- cials have conceded that the den- tal school can function adequate- ly for the first six months with only half of the $1.07 million in- crease. They are, however, "very reluctant to go below that figure unless they have some kind of guarantee that they will get the In short, the dental school ha no legal guarantee it can eve open the four new buildings. Niehuss says he is sure th funds will come through as th dental school needs them. "Par of the original understandin with the Legislature was that th new school was being built for in creased capacity.
