To Consider Policies
The literary college faculty will
meet in special session next Mon-
day to consider a resolution op-
posing University involvement in
secret research.
The resolution, if passed, would
ask the University Senate to "re-
quest the Board of Regents to
establish a policy prohibiting the
acceptance of contracts which
specify that results be secret ex-
cept those which justifiably pro-
tect individual privacy."
In other action at the regular
monthly meeting yesterday, the
faculty voted to amend its rules
to permit senior teaching fellows
in the literary college to take part
in college faculty meetings but
without voting rights.
Included are about 90 teaching'
fellows who have completed allr
work toward a doctoral degree
except the dissertation.
'Rethinking'
The faculty also called for a
"thorough rethinking" of enroll-
ment schedules for 1969-70. The
executive committee of the college
and Vice-President for Academic
Affairs Allan Smith announced
last Saturday that new enrollmentr
this fall will be 180 less than last
fall. The faculty set no specific

Club Sports
By HOWARD KOHN
Student sports will have a louder
voice in the newly-reorganized
athletic department. University
President Robben W. Fleming an-
nounced yesterday.
Physical education was given
representation on a par with in-
tercollegiate athletics in the other
major change in the athletic
structure decided by tpe Regents
after nearly a year of 'discussions.
For the first time, an advisory
committee will devote itself strictly
to the much-maligned area of in-
tramurals and club sports. Fleming
said the ever-present need fox
money would be the first issue
the committee will consider.
"Because the athletic depart-
ment can no longer provide for
intramurals and clubs. we will
have to find different avenues,"
Fleming noted.
Three students will be elected to
the advisory committee, which
will have eight or nine members
including the directors of intra-
murals for both men and women.
Physical education will also
have a larger role in the new
' athletic structure. When present

Ro-mney u'GhI"ances Down
But Followers Look
Up
By STEVE WILDSTROM
Special To The Daily
WASHINGTON -- Most pro-
fessional followers of Republican,
politics these days feel Michigan
Gov. George Romney has at best
a fighting chance of winning the
1968 GOP presidential nomina-
tion.
At least one small group of
pros, however, violently disagrees
with this consensus. Under the
direction of former GOP Nation-
al Chairman Leonard A. Hall,
staff members of the national
Romney-for-President Committee
refuse, at least publicly, to even
consider the possibility that any-
one but George Romney could
become the party's standards
bearer.
r
The first public test of Rom-
ney's appeal as a national candi-
date is rapidly approaching in the
form of the March 12 New Hamp-
shire primary. Early public opin-
ion polls in the state showed
Romney trailing former Vice-
President Richard M. Nixon as
badly as 3-1.
Leading Candidates
Romney and Nixon are the
leading candidates in a primary
field which includes Florida Gov.'
Claude Kirk and perennial can-
didate Harold Stassen.
According to committee staff
member Lawrence B. Lindemer,
former Wayne County Republican
chairman, a poll taken Jan. 31
showed Romney gaining on Nixon
as a result of the governor's per-
sonal campaign in the Granite
.State. In his letter to campaign}

not say how large Romney's gain

believes that Romney does not
have to win in New Hampshire
for him to capture the nomina-
tion. Leydens said he didn't
think "it would be a final blow"
if the governor were to lose the
first primary. A 55-45 split in
favor of Nixon would be consid-
ered acceptable, he said.

Personal Campaigner

agreed that Romney is most ef-
fective as a personal campaigner,
but neither would say just how

Cost of Late Re4stration

the first two weeks.
