Prof. Price arrived yesterday afternoon in the village of Senneterre, 250 miles northwest of Montreal, to join search parties already comb- ing the area for the students, two weeks overdue on a 500-mile canoe trip. If necessary, he will make the same trip by canoe, looking for his son, Alan, '59E, and Robert Carey, '58E, of Rosedale, Illinois. Lost in River Area The pair are assumed to be somewhere between Lake Waswanipi near Senneterre and the Rupert House outpost on James Bay-a 250 ---mile chain of rivers and port- CoUrse Reaches Enrollment at 'TU All -Time GOV.

The speaker of Lebanon's Par- liament said the situation is "very serious" in the wake of the dis-. appearance of a Christian Pha- langist (CQ) newspaper column- ist, Puad Haddad. Two persons were reported killed in the new outburst that threatened to shatter the uneasy calm that has prevailed since Gen. Fuad Chehab was elected president July s G. Barricades Go- Up Road barricades were set up in the city. The shootings occurred in the. Phalangist area of the city. Earlier, some Phalangists with machine guns set up posts out- side Beirut and demanded the re- turn of Haddad by midnight. The Phalangists are militant support- ers of outgoing President Camille Chamoun, who was serving his last hours in office. At first the Phalangists accused the rebels opposed to Chamoun of kidnapping Haddad.. But Pha- langist leader Pierre Beymayel told the Associated Press tonight: Aid to Communists "Haddad was kidnaped by a mysterious hand which sought to arouse the city again and destroy the possibility of a compromise. This could only serve the inter- ests of the Communists, who are determined to perpetuate our troubles." Geymayel said he did not blame the rebels, "Since it is not in their interest to make trouble at this time." In the past few days of feud- ing between Phalangists and rebels over Haddad's disappear- ance about 400 persons were seized by both sides in. revenge kidnapings. Woman Sues AU' Regents, Hospital Staff Mrs. Dorothy M. Brown of Port Huron has filed suit for $325,000 against the University Regents, three 'University 'hospital doctors and two anesthetists, claming that she may have been dropped from an operating table while anesthe- tized. Named in the suit are Drs. Ed- ward J. Klapp, Jr., G. H. Long and D. F. Watson, the Regents, and the two anesthetists, Ruth Payne and assistant head nurse Kathleen Norman. A hearing was held in the court of Washtenaw County Circuit Judge James R. Breakey, Jr., Sept. 9. The court ordered the defend- ants to produce books, letters, records and other documents per- tinent to the case by Sept. 30. Mrs. Brown's attorneys claim that when she 'awoke after the operation on April 16, 1956, she was paralyzed in the left hand and arm and from the chest down. The suit alleges that "unfortunately something just went wrong" and the University Hospital will not explain exactly what happened. ages. They apparently turned down a guide's offer to accompany them on the trip, according to Detective Louis Patenaude of the Quebec Provincial Police. IThe journey was described by Patenaude as "one of the roughest' in northern Canada." A great number of "bad" rapids and port-' ALAN PRICE ... two weeks overdue ages make travel extremely diffi- cult, he added. Chances Only Fair He said, however, that prospects of finding the pair remain "fair." Contacted late last night in Senneterre, a village of about 4,000 persons, Patenaude said that Royal Canadian Air Force planes would comb the area by air today. If the students are not located, Patenaude revealed that Prof. Price will make the trip by canoe, accompanied by, a guide. The students left Batchelor Lake, 110 miles north of Senne- terre, on July 26 in a recently pur- chased 16-foot canoe. No Communication They stopped at an outpost on Lake Waswanipi where 'young Price mailed a letter to his Ann Arbor home and then set out for Rupert House, 250 miles away. Mrs. Price said that her son had told her he would not be able to contact Ann Arbor again until they reached their destination about Sept. 1. Patenaude said that the students carried a ten-day supply of food. However, he added, they have fishing gear and could conceivably "live off their catch indefinitely." Prof. Price, who was traveling last week in Montreal, contacted the Royal Canadian Mounted Po- lice there, with regard to the canoeists' whereabouts. Had Not Arrived Next, Rupert House announced that the pair had failed to arrive. An RCAF plane, searching the region Friday, spotted several canoes between Batchelor Lake and Waswanipi, but reported none on the lightly-traveled stretch be- tween Waswanipi and Rupert House. Patenaude said a helicopter is now being sought, in addition to the plane. Price is 21 years old, Cary 23. A professor of campanology, Prof. Price has been University carilloneur since 1939. Student Plan Draws 5,000. Approximately 5,000 students have applied for the Student-Gov- ernment Council's Student Health Insurance Plan, according to Scott Faubus Sets Reopening For Schools LEXINGTON, Ky. ()-Gov. Or- val Faubus said today he expects to reopen high schools in Little Rock next Monday, or possibly later in the week, after a vote on the ques- tion of admitting Negroes. The Arkansas governor made the statement at the Southern Governors Conference. He has proposed a plan for operating the schools at private institutions. "We don't anticipate any legal difficulty," Faubus said, "but there could be litigation brought by the Federal Government. If they want to tie everything up and keep the schools closed further, that will be their responsibility." Florida's Goy. Leroy Collins brought the integration contro- versy squarely before the governors earlier today in a speech suggest- ing that it become "the first order of business' of Congress next Janu- ary. The referendum, required under state law, will be held Saturday to determine whether Little Rock citizens prefer to reopen the schools on a private, segregated basis. Students Yell, Demonstrate At Little Rock LITTLE ROCK (gp) - An esti- mated 200 shouting students dem- onstrated on the governor's man- sion lawn yesterday against any integratalon of racially-torn Cen- tral High. School. They poured out of about 40 automobiles which formed a five- block-long caravan. The cars drove down business streets and around the state capitol building earlier. "Two, four, six, eight. We don't want to integrate," the students chanted in pep rally style. After the demonstration, the caravan headed back to town but broke up when one automobile struck a pedestrian, R. L. Mc- Goodwin, 67 years old. The victim suffered fractures of both ankles, police said. Fred Jolly, 17 years old, Central High senior and spokesman for the group, said, "We just wanted Gov. Orval Faubus to know. that even if some students are opposed to him, we feel that the majority of both Hall and Central students are backing him 100 per cent." demonstrate that it is no longerC guilty. A letter from the National Council of Sigma Kappa is now in the hands of SGC, Council President Maynard Goldman, '59, confirmed, telling what action was taken at the convention. Goldman declined to reveal the contents of the letter before to- morrow's meeting. A letter from Vice-President for. Student Affairs James A. Lewis will also be read, Goldman said, containing administration opinion. At no time has the national or- ganizataion admitted it violates University regulations. The ex- pulsion at Tufts and the suspen- sion at Cornell were characterized only as for the "good of the soror- ity as a whole." Given No Information The then-president of the Cor- nell chapter told The Daily from Ithaca in 1956 that despite per- sistent efforts she had "found nothing" which the national or- ganizataion was using to justify its actions. She could think of nothing in the record of her chapter, she said - other than the pledging of a Negro - to ex- plain its suspension. Cornell Dean of Women Doro- thy Brooks wrote National Sigma Kappa at the request of Presi- dent Deane W. Malott, asking in- formation on "specific areas wherein you deemed the chapter to have been in error." On Brink William W. Hoffa, '61E, Leon- ard A. Brunette, Jr., '61, Alan U. Bowland, '61E and William Knapp, '61, said it was just a gag, but the Niagara Falls Police didn't think so. The police found the four- some about a mile above the brink of the falls Saturday with a big wooden barrel and signs which read: "Today 3:00 Barrel Attempt." Knapp said they were only trying to draw a crowd. "It was just a gag, honestly," he said. "We were just going to send the barrel off by itself." The boys, on a sightseeing trip, were given a stern lecture, escorted to the Canadian bor- der, and sent back to Michigan by way of Canada, "The slspension of our chapter at Cornell was entirely a matter of internal management," was the reply of National Executive Sec- retary Margaret Taggart. Made Secret Visit Then it was learned that Edna B. Dreyfus, former Sigma Kappa national president, had visited Cornell the year before, "appar- ently in secret" as Cornell Daily Sun editor Andrew Koplind put it, "to find out what was going on." She contacted neither the ac- tives of Sigma Kappa nor the University administrataion, ac- cording to Kopkind, and because of this, President Malott sent a second letter to the national or- ganization. The only reply was a 41-word letter backing the pre- vious stand. One Suspended, One Expelled The Cornell local had pledged one Negro, a junior and was sus- pended. The Tufts local had pledged two Negroes, both fresh- men and as Barbara Busch, '57, the local president here at the University pointed out, was "fi- nancially weak." It was expelled. Sheila Schwarpz, president of Thalia sorority at Tufts Univer- sity, which was the Sigma Kappa chapter expelled, told The Daily last week her group has never been told the reason fo" the ex- pulsion, beyond "fore the good of the sorority as a whole." Dean Katherine J e f f e r s of. Jackson College, Tufts' school for women, said her office had never heard anything else. After Daily Editor Richard Snyder, '57, had brought the ac- tions of nataional Sigma Kappa; to the attention of SGC in Sep- tember, 1956, a fact-finding com- mittee was established. Debated Four Hours The Council heard the report of this committee and debated four hours before 600-700 people in the Union Ballroom before voting 12 to five that the sorority did not. "meet the conditions for manten- ance of recognition." Continuing to meet initial re- quirements for membership which in the case of Sigma Kappa, in- cludes not having discriminatory policies is one of the conditions for maintenance of recognition.

Adams Resigns Position As Presidential Assistant WASHINGTON (RP) - Sherman Adams, President Dwight D. Eisenhower's right hand man and Bernard Goldfine's long time friend, resigned under fire tonight. *.. . I have done no wrong," he said in a dramatic TV-radio appearance broadcast across the nation. But he added, "I must give full consideration to the effect of my continuing presence on the public scene." Adams acknowledged three months ago that he accepted costly' favors from Goldfine, a Boston textile magnate, at a time when Gold- fine' was having trouble with fed- ' eral regulatory agencies. He denied using any influence in Goldfine's behalf.i But pressure for his departure has been building up.

SGC To Consider Sigma Kappa ,Case By THOMAS TURNER The two-year period given Sigma Kappa sorority to remove "dis- criminatory membership policies" has expired. At tomorrow's meeting Student Government Council will begin consideration of whether or not- the national sorority still violates University regulations. If the group is found guilty recognition will be withdrawn, leaving the University's chapter unaffiliated. ' The action in 1956 was taken after Sigma Kappa chapters at Cornell and Tufts Universities had been suspended and expelled after pledging Negroes. Given Until Convention In finding Sigma Kappa in. violation of University rules, SC gave the national sorority until after its convention this summer to Flint College Lists 402 In Classes Budget Cut Keeps Student Total Down In Freshman Class By JOAN KAATZ The number of students enrolled in residence credit courses atthe University this semester reached the record figure af 23,508, accord- ing to Edward G. Groesbeck, direc- tor of the Office of Registration and Records.,' Of this number 402 students enrolled in courses at the Univer- sity's Flint College. This compares with last fall's figures of 23,166 enrolled 'at -Ann Arbor and 351 attending classes in Flinft. Budget Holds Down Total The increase in enrollment of residence credit students would have been much larger if it hadn't been necessary to reduce enroll- ment in most areas due to budget restrictions'. Additional students could b. accepted only in those areas where an increase =could be made with minimum additional expense, Groesbeck added. t In addition the admission of out-of-state students was closed by August 15. This is the earliest date in history for the closing. Freshmen at Same Level This fall's freshman class (of 3,071 is approximately the same as the estimated 3,049 of last spring, Vice-President for Student Affairs James A. Lewis said yes- terday. .The estimate was derived from approximate figures of the freshman class of each college. The literary college enrolled 1,944 new students -and 657 fresh- men entered the engineering col- lege. The architecture and design school admitted 105, thilo only 16 entered the natural resources school. Other college freshmen classes Include 32 in the school of educa- tion, 64 in the music school, and 28 in the pharmacy school. Extension'Total Not Known Final statistics on the enroll ment in the University's extension courses will not be known until registration for these courses is completed in two weeks, according to Director Everett J. Soop. Budget restrictions have forced the Extension Service to reduce the number of non-credit courses offered in the Upper Peninsula and to eliminate the courses offered i: Muskegon. Report UAW Chrysler PactE Near Signing DETROIT (R)-Chrysler Corpo- ration and the United Auto Work- ers reportedly moved toward con- tract agreement yesterday with some indications a three-year pace might be wrapped up by tonight. UAW President Walter Reuther led his negotiators into a meeting with Chrysler after polishing up details of union counter-offers on some contract issues. General Motors, which like Chrysler is negotiating under threat of a UAW strike, also met with the union and reported slight progress in working out wage dif- ferential problems --touchiest in the General Motors contract. Doug Fraser, administrative .as- sistant to Reuther, said one of the most difficult problems at Chrysler involved seniority, with the union demanding more consideration be given workers with top years in a given plant. He said the UAW was not seeking company-wide senior- ity. Health Service MEN LEAVE TEMPORARY ROOMS: Dean Calls Housing Situation. 'Normal' By ROBERT JUNKER i There is only a "normal surplus" of students in men's temporary housing, according to Assistant Dean of Men Karl D. Streiff. "We are moving people out of temporary housing today," Streiff explained. There are about 65 men in the temporary quarters on the ninth floor of South Quadrangle, he explained. "After a week from today," no temporary housing is expected in the residence halls, John M. Hale, senior resident director of the men's residence halls, explained. He described the situation as "normal." "We wait until the first day of classes to assign rooms to tem- porary housing dwellers," Hale explained. This process began yes- terday.
