Fleming cited as his reasons objections to the judiciary section of the bylaw draft approved last summer by Senate Assembly' and Student Governnient Council. He also said, "Recent events have shown there are obviously problems with the present system." The Assembly-SGC draft would have given students the option at some point in the legal process of having their case heard before an all-student judiciary, such as Central Stu- d:ea firi i rv f QT I-1 Thrust looks good," said Mission Control. But they could n o t say immediatelyawhether the course correction was a succass or not. As of 2 a.m. this morning there was no good measure of the new flight path. The Flight Dynam- ics Officer, expecting some vent- ing of helium gas from the space- craft, said if the venting changes the course more time would be needed to radio track the space- craft's path. For precision's sake, veteran James A. Lovell Jr. who holds the world record for hours in space, was at the controls during the rocket burn. His crewmates, both rookies, Fred W. Haise Jr. and Jack L. Swigert Jr., monitored the instruments. The- astronauts held the earth in the window and used it as a benchmark to guide by. "You're looking good," said Mis- ksionControl after the burn. "Nice work," THIS DIAGRAM shows what will happen if the Apollo 13 astro- nauts make a successful midcourse correction in their flight to earth or if the correction is insufficient.

Fleming's a c t i o n 'yesterday would postpone regental consid- eration of the judiciary sections until Oct. 1, the deadline given the committee. Referring to the Assembly-SGC draft, Fleming said last night. "I don't see that kind of judiciary emerging." SGC members said last night they had already made their pro- posals for a judiciary system, re- ferring to the student-faculty by- law draft, and they saw no needa for further study. Dave Brand, president of LSA student government, said last night, "I think what Fleming did# was to undermine the work thatl a lot of people, did in formulating the bylaws. Any further commit- tee on the bylaws should be to ex- plain the proposed draft to the administration, not to reformulate them." The Assembly-SGC draft was drawn up by an ad hoc student- faculty committee and submitted for approval in June 1969. T h a t committee was implementing the report of the so-called "Hatcher Commission," which spent three years studying and making recom- mendations on the role of the stu- dent in University decision-mak- ing. Fleming's reference to "recentI events" concerned charges of dis- ruption being brought against students involved in the Black Action Movement (BAM) strike. Although students were given the option of appearing before their college's administrative board or a hearing officer appointed by Fleming, all students charged so far have refused to do so, main- taining that only student courts have jurisdiction. Faculty members who are press- ing charges have, in turn, refused to appear before CSJ, which has been assuming jurisdiction in the cases. See FLEMING, Page 8 CSJ orders IHA reform By HARVARD VALLANCE Central Student Judiciary (CSJ) decided early yesterday morning not to order the withdrawal of recognition from Inter-House As- sembly (IHA), the governing body of students in the residence halls, in a case brought against it by members of the Chicago House Council of West Quad. The court ruled, however, that certain parts of the IHA constitu- tion were in violation of the Stu- dent Government Council consti- tution and voting rights resolution of April, 1969. The, court gave IHA See REFORMS, Page 8 y I i SGC pck for UC' By DEBRA TTIAL Student Government Council last night appointed student rep- resentatives to the recently formed University Council (UC) and Com-~ mittee on Communications. SGC felt that they wanted the two groups to begin work over the summer because there are a num- ber of issues which should be con- sidered as soon as possible. SGC had previously refused to appoint any members to UC, say- ing they would wait until the by- law sections on the proposed Of- fice of Student Services were ap- proved. A tri-partite body of adminis- trators, faculty members and stu- dents, UC was approved by the Regents at their February meet- ing to make general rules for the entire University community. SGC also reconsidered their en- dorsement of the SACUA-SGC rec- ommendations to the Regents for sections 7.03-7.05 of the bylaws. (A motion to re-vote on the draft was tabled indefinitely.) "It is obviously a much weaker version than the original draft. It'll only stand in the way of future negotiations and hinder the policy board. There is no gain'in keeping them on the books," said SGC member Bob Nelson. SGC member Bruce Wilson re- ported for the bookstore policy board saying that although it is their. "goal," the bookstore will probably not be open for business until the beginning of the winter term. It cannot be opened sooner due to the difficulty in finding a manager and in obtaining and re- structuring the physical site of the store in the Union. Ip other action, SGC: -Strongly endorsed the strike at Eastern Michigan University and condemned the "repressive measures" of its administration, and -Appointed Henry Clay to fill the vacancy on Council created by the resignation of Dave Brand, the new president of LSA Student Government. In yesterday's edition of The Daily, SGC Executive Vice Presi- dent Jerry De Grieck was( incor- rectly quoted as saying 'that at today's Diag rally, students will be asked to "demonstrate support for the granting of amnesty" to the participants in the BAM strike. He did not make this statement. q NEUBACHER News Editor The complete text of Mr. Guskin's letter appears on to- day's editorial page. Alan Guskin a psychology yec- turer in the Residential Col- lege and project director at the Institute for Social Research, met yesterday with President Robben Fleming and told h i m he was withdrawing from con- sideration for the post of v i c e president for student services.

Guskin said he believed that double jeopardy, in any form, should never occur, and that stu- dents should have a major voice in judging students accused of non- academic violations. Fleming has argued against both of these positions in the past. Guskin also told Fleming that he could not take the office if it meant he would be put in the posi- tion of trying to repress student movements. Guskin criticised Fleming for the delay in appointing a vice president.
