Completes Lease

Arrest 138

By DAVID SPURR
Final wording of the new Uni-
versity eight-month lease was
completed yesterday by members
of the Student Housing Advisory
Committee, a joint group of stu-
dents and administrators.

Demands
At Brandeis
By GEORGE ABBOTT WHITE
Special To The Daily
WALTHAM, Mass. - The ad-
ministration of Brandeis Univer-
sity acquiesced to students yes-

ing Bureau will distribute only this
lease from now on.
The term of rental is for a per-
iod "not to exceed eight months,"
and the lease includes an optional
clause for those wishing to rent
for "a period up to four months
in addition" to the eight months.
A set of instructions at the be-
ginning of the lease is intended to
make the rental terms clear to
students who might otherwise be
confused.
Not Mandatory
The lease does not force land-
lords to rent for a term of eight
months, but the format places
emphasis on an eight-month term
with optional extensions.
Thomas A. Brown, Assistant Di-
rector of Student-Community Re-
lations, said he felt the new lease
to be a "substantial improvement"
over the old twelve-month lease.
"The format . . . is clearer," he
said, "and the rental agreements
are fairer to both landlords and
students."

SGC last night voted to move
ahtad with plans for incorpora-
tion, passed a proposed student
bill of rights and decided not to
call for Vice-President for Student
Afairs Richard L. Cutler's resig-'
nation.
The incorporated plans passed
by a 9-1 vote, include. a proposed
contract with the Regents in
which the Regents would agree
to collect SGC dues in return for
SGC performing its present ad-
ministrative duties,
Incorporation would make SGC
financially and legally independ-
ent of the University and allow it
to solicit gifts from sowrces other
than the University and students.
Council will also have power to sue
in court, float bonds, A take out
loans and buy land.
Dues paid to students under the
proposed incorporation would be
50 cents per student per semester,
25 cents higher than present dues,
which are collected as part of
tuition.
Under the proposed bylaws, stu-
detns will be able to decide the
amount which they will pay for
SGC dues. One thousand signa-
tures or approval of Council is re-
quired to put the issue on the
ballot.

A policy to enroll all male Uni-
versity Graduate students in draft
deferable fields no matter what
their actual discipline may result
%rom a draft referendum spon-
sored by Graduate Assembly.
"All students not deferred might
be arbitrarily registered, for ex-
ample, in the Medical or Dental
Schools whose students are defer-
red," explained GA member Stuart
Katz who is coordinating the ref-
Vrendum.
This proposal is only one under
study if the graduate body chooses
"a policy of non-cooperation with
the present draft laws," Katz said.
Official Policy
"Dean Spurr of the Graduate
School has announced that the re-
#ults will be official policy," Katz
said. "Spurr himself asked GA
to conduct a poll."
The poll will be conducted among
graduate students during registra-
tion Jan. 2-4 and throughout late
registration until the middle of
January. Results should be com-
fled by the end of January, Katz
said.
The first section of the referen-
Oum deals with alternatives to the
raft system, Katz said. Students

study student body decides that
the policy of the graduate school
should be different from the pres-
ent system."
One option calls for "a policy
of non-cooperation with the pres-
ent draft laws." Katz said that this
was left purposely vague but that
many proposals for dealing with
the present laws had been sug-
gested.
Katz said that he hopes for an

80 per cent return rate for the
referendum.
"We hope to trigger off other
similar referendums at other grad-
uate schools and determine the
opinion of the nation's graduate
students," he added.
The Graduate School belongs to
several organizations with paid
lobbyists in Washington, Katz
said, and the referendum results
will be forwarded to them.

TO RESUME WRITING:

Hatcher Recalls Years of U' expansion

By SUSAN ELAN
Associate Managing Editor
"I've enjoyed being president-
but I'm looking forward to return-
ing to my literary work on the
Great Lakes," says retiring Uni-
versity President Harlan Hatcher.
Hatcher who took office on
Sept. 1. 1951, will be succeeded
Jan. 1 by Robben W. Fleming,
former chancellor of the Madison
campus of the University of Wis-
consin.
Looking back over his achieve-
ments at the University, Hatcher
takes most pride in the develop-
ment of the library complex. North
Campus, student housing and "the
research arm of the University."
"When I first came to the Uni-
ve! sity there were no undergrad-
uate library facilities. After the
Ugh was built, the next step was
:edoing the General Library to

He also sighted the "serious'
shortage" of a theatre at the Uni-;
versity which has "deprived stu-
dents of the chance to see and!
produce. We have not yet found a
;way to raise the money. We have
the gift from Regent Power but1
prices keep going up."
In regard to the controversy over
classified research Hatcher said,
"We give support to the faculty,
to carry on research that is ap-
propriate such that if we had lots
of money we would supply them
with it. Some projects start as
normal investigations and then
turn out to have defense applica-
tions."
Hatcher says defense-related re-
search was started at the Univer-
sity during World War II. "There
was support and conviction for
that war and so there wastno
aquestion about ireseaich of that
" ~nature being done. The new thing;

munity organization explained
that they want to change the di-
rection of the project from being
primarily a student group to one
which works more closely with the
community. They feel students
tutored by the pr'ogram will then
be able to gain more from it.
The move also resulted in direc-
tor Richard Sleet being relieved
of his $200 a month position.
Members of central staff, which
oversees the project, explained
that they could not afford to re-
tain Sleet at that salary partly
because of the need for more
handling of administrative details.
In requesting Sleet's - removal
from his position as director,
the staff offered him the post of
"co-ordinator of new projects" on
a volunteer basis. Sleet, who
founded the tutorial project, was
reported to have refused the offer.
He was unavailable for comment
last night.
Project President Lynn Shapiro
said that after six years the pro-
ject has "established a firm base,
and has a good relations with the
school system and the commu-
nity." But there are many things
the project could be doing that it

cutting down on the time that
they can spend on more important
work.
Project co-ordinators have also
received the job of planning their
own programs without the aid of
central direction. The students ex-
plained that this weakens the con-
tinuity of the programs.
The statement announcing Sleet's
removal said the central staff felt
"that in order to fulfill our re-
sponsibility to the tutors, tutees,
and to the community, that Rich-
ard Sleet should be released from
his position" as director of the
program.
The officers explained that this
was as much an abolition of the
position of director as it was the
releasing of Sleet.
A meeting has already been
planned to consider the problem of
re-organization and to make a
general evaluation.

Council voted 11-6 to endorse
the bill of rights and recommend
it to the President's Commission
on Decision Making for considera-
tion.
The bill of rights generally en-
dorses broad civil liberties and
student decision making ,along
with providing guarantees in the
areas of judicial procedure, cone
trol of student records and Uni-
versity policy.
