May Sue for Libel
Football Coach To Consult Lawyers;
'Perturbed' Over Charges in Daily
By FRED LaBOUR
Michigan State football coach Duffy Daugherty said last
night that ire is planning to °consult his attorneys about
the possibility of filing a libel suit against The Daily be-
cause of a recent stcry which revealed apparent MSU vio-
lations of Big Ten rules.
"We work hard within the spirit of the rules," Daugh-
erty said lhst night. "It's omr whole life. Anytime you call us
liars or cheats we re bouno to be very much upset and
perturbed apout it."
Earlier yesterday Daugherty told reporter David Condon
of the Chicago Tribun of the possibility of a libel suit.
"Anyone who suggests I'm dishonest had better be able to
prove it." Condon quoted
Daugherty as saying, "I'll find "
the extent of their insurance wnter Term
and sue them (The Daily) for 1

Daugherty told The Daily last i E nrollment,

A total of 34,773 degree, post-
graduate, professional and exten-
sion students are enrolled at the
University this semester, a drop
of 1,665 from fall term. However,
this figure is still 1300 more than
last winter, according to figures
released yesterday by the Office
of Registration and Records.
The College of Literature, Sci-
ence and the Arts reported an in-
crease of nearly 1100 students
over last winter, rising to 15,249
from 14,182. L S A enrollment
dropped 794, less than five per
cent, from fall figures.
Flint College increased from
910 last year to 1002. Social work
rose from 592 to 676, nursing
from 749 to 783 and public health
from 320 to 374..
Medical School Increase
Medical school, enrollment rose
from 1463 to 1518, including grad-
uate students in certain sciences
and postgraduate physicians.
Largest drops were recorded in
business administration, from
1262 to 1163, and education, from
3199 to 3149.
Business administration and
engineering registered the high-
est decrease rate from fall enroll-
ment, eight per cent. Business ad-
ministration dropped from 1271 to
1163. Engineering fell from 4531
to 4160.
Art School Declines
Enrollment in architecture and
design fell six per cent from 811
last fall to 762 this winter.
Winter term figures do not in-
clude enrollment at Dearborn
Campus, where students are regis-
tering this week. More 'than 700
students are expected to enroll
there.
Some 2698 of the total enroll-
ment consists of extension stu-
dents, a drop of 248 from last win-
ter and 71 from fall term.
The only other enrollment
which increased from last winter
was dentistry, which added 10
students. There was no change in
the school's enrollment from fall
b~erm.
Five Per Cent Decrease
Enrollments in the law school,
music and pharmacy dropped
about five per cent from fall fig-
ures. Law school enrollment de-
creased from 1059 to, 1003, music
from 870 to 826 and pharmacy
from 234 to 222.
The number of nursing students
decreased by four per cent from
fall term, from 816 to 783.
All of the colleges and schools
in the University expect to main-
tain current admissions policies to
continue slow increass or main-
tain current size.

LIBERAL DISSENT
Ferency Barnstorms for Peace
By MICHAEL THORYN
Zolton Ferency, speaking to about 100
people at an open meeting of the Young
Democrats, said he is "touring the
country on behalf of peace, -McCarthy,
and an open Democratic national con-
vention."
Ferency, former state Democratic
chairman who was defeated as candi-
date for governor in 1966, said he sup-
ports the cause of Senator Eugene Mc-
Carthy - to unseat President Johnson.
"Bobby Kennedy was really recon-
sidei'ing his decision not to run about
ten days ago. If enough people had en-
couraged him, he would have jumped
in," Ferency said. "I did my best. I
put out my pressdrelease, but no dice.
"Kennedy came out with a statement
saying that he 'could not foresee any
circumstances that would make him de-
cide to challenge the President,' " Fer-
ency said.
The lackr of liberldissent onnthe
a dove on Vietnam, Ferency said "all
Presidential hopefuls look pretty much
the same.
"They would rather not get involved
in black and white issues," Ferency ex-
plained. "These days, everyone's against
crime and violence."
President Johnson's State of the Un-
ion Message said there was an air of
restlessness because the ship of state is
nmoving into new, uncharted waters, "but
really, we are in an ocean of turmoil,"
Ferency said.
Ferency claims that people admit we
werf wrong to get into Vietnam. "But
now they say we have a committment.
We are committed to a gross error," he
cotinued.
Hr, hopes the national convention in
Chicago in August will "drag out issues
and discuss them." However, unless
therc is a sudden shift in both parties.
"we will have an election between
Tweedle-dee and Tweedle-dum."
Engineering Council circulated
a petition earlier this week pro-
testing the placement of any re-
strictions on meetings with re-
cruiters. Nearly 1400 signatures
were collected.
However, Prof. Carl Legatski,
head of the Ann Arbor chapter of
the American Institute of Chem-
ical Engineers and originator of
the petition, feels that not many
more signatures will be collected.
The petition aims to preserve
the policy that employers' repre-
sentatives, meet privately with
students rather than facing a
public forum. Engineering Coun-
cil decided to sponsor the petition
when the Student Relations Com-
mittee of the Senate Advisory
Committee on University Affairs
recommended open forum dis-
cussions earlier this month.
The Student and Faculty Ad-
visory Committees to the Bureau
of Appointments unanimously
passed a similar resolution yes-
terday. The two committees met
in joint session in the Union to
hold open hearings and consider
the resolution.
Most Agree
"Most engineering students were
in agreement with the present
policy," said Wally Rhines, '68E,
president of Engineering Council.
Dean Gordon Van Wylen also
thought the present policy was
fair and added that he would be
willing to invite any company
representative to meet with stu-
dents on an organized and cour-
teous basis.
University President Robben W.
Fleming said he would bring the
matter before the Regents, al-
though it is not on the formal
agenda for this Friday's Regents
meeting.
