Cornell Group Cuts
Ties Completely,
Renounces Procedures, Principles
Of National; Organize as Local
By JUDITH DONERI
The suspended chapter of Sigma Kappa sorority at Cornell Uni-
versity voted unanimously last night to return its charter to national
Sigma Kappa, breaking completely all ties between Sigma Kappa and
the local group.
In the statement issued to the national organization, the local,
now know s Chi Gamma sorority, justified its action saying "We
cannot agree with the principles and procedures under which Sigma
Kappa operates.
Chi Gamma will continue to operate as a local organization, ac-

Lambda Chi
At Hamilton
Expelled
By BARTON HUTHWAITE
The Hamilton College chapter
of Lambda Chi Alpha fraternity
reported last night that its char-
ter had been revoked because it
insisted on a policy of non-dis-
crimination in membership.
Timothy W. Scholl, chapter
president, said that its dispute
with the national organization be-
gan in March after it had adopted
a resolution stating that it would
not restrict membership "for any
reasons of race, religion or color."
Scholl cited the national fra-
ternity policy as that "qualifica-
tions for membership are to be
acceptable to the general frater-
nity, to believe in the principles of
Christianity and to be of the
white of American Indian races."
'Not Test Case'
The purpose of the resolution
wad to state the policy of the lo-
cal membership and not to force
a "test case," Scholl said.
Scholl said there were no op-
posing votes in the local chapter
on the resolution.
Bruce Johnson, '59E, president
of the chapter here, said last
night h voted to revoke the chap-
ter's charter because "they re-
fused to abide by the membership
requirements" of the national
fraternity.
Sat on Review Body
Johnson sat on the special com-
mittee that reviewed the Hamil-
ton case atthe national conven-
tion held? in Montreal last sum-
mer.
National Lambda Chi Alpha
president Tozier Brown called the
Hamilton resolution an "act of
secession ."
"The Hamilton men have -re-
fused to accede to a vote of the
membership of a voluntary or-I
ganization," he said.1
"There was some q u e s t i o n
whether Scholl used the Hamilton
chapter for his own personal
gain," Johnson said.r
'Active' in Senate
"Scholl was quite active in thea
Student Senate at Hamilton andt
influential in having their cam,
pus adopt a 100 per cent rushing
program prior to the chapter's
resolution of policy."t
He was elected president of thet
Student Senate after his chaptert
voted not to abide by the national
fraternity's membership code,
Johnson said.,
Scholl admitted he drew up thea
resolution but denied it had any
connection with the 100 per cent
rushing plan.A

The members intend to occupy the
same house as they did when af-
filiated with Sigma Kappa. The
Cornell paper reports that a
transfer of ownership from the
local Sigma Kappa alumnae cor-
poration to. the University is be-
ing contemplated.
Attitude Instrumental
The Chi Gamma president indi-
cated that the national's attitude
toward the chapter, "particularly
as evidenced during the conven-
tion last summer," was instru-
mental in the local's decision.
The national organization had
rejected an application for rein-
statement of the local at its con-
vention this past summer. The
chapter had been under suspen-
sion since July 1956 "for the good
of the sorority as a whole." The
action was taken by the national
shortly after the local group had
pledged a Negro.
"So what," . Student Govern-
ment Council member Scott Chry-
sler, '59BAd, said when advised of
the action at Cornell. "It is in-
teresting, but has no effect on
anything that we've done here."
Refers to SGC Vote
He was referring to the recent
SGC decision which found Na-
tional Sigma Kappa in violation
of University regulations.
"Here is new evidence that
Sigma Kappa was acting in 'bad
faith,' " SGC treasurer Mort Wise,
'59, explained. "The Board in Re-
view should definitely look at this
very carefully and realize exactly
whatritesays."
Fred Merrill, '59, gave two in-
terpretations to the C o r n e 11
group's move. Either they don't
want to have anything to do with
a national which discriminates,
or they are tired of being "held
In abeyance," he explained.

PARIS OP)Premier Charles de
Gaulle yesterday told the French
Army to get out, of politics in
Algeria at once.
He said his order was to clear
the way for free elections Nov. 23'
in the North African arena of a
bloody continuting four-year-old
rebellion against French rule.
The action was Premier de
Gaulle's strongest against the mili-
tary leaders who organized so-
called Committees of Public Safety,
in Algiers after the political-mili-
tary revolt there May 13. That
uprising paved the way for Premier
de Gaulle's return to power.
Cannot be Candidates
He ruled that no French, mili-
tary men or civil servants could
be candidates in the parliamentary
balloting. He also said persons
who had held military or govern-
ment posts within the past 12.
months could not run.l
His.orders were in a stern letter
to Gen. Raoul Salan, French com-
mander in Algeria.
One of the leading early mem-
bers of the Algiers Committee of
Public Safety was paratroop Maj.
Gen. Jacques Massu. Salan him-
self, though in sympathy with theC
committee's aims, never joined it.l

behind the Algiers movement wasx

ADD THEFT RULING:
Increased Library fines
To Take Effect Oct. 27
By LANE VANDERSLICE
Stiffer library fines for overdue books and a rule providing for
possible suspension from school for any student who attempts to steal
a book will go into effect Oct. 27, Frederick H. Wagman, director of
University Libraries; said yesterday.
The libraries, hard-pressed by budget cuts, were forced to take
these measures to make more of their books available to students,
Wagman said.
The new rules provide that any student "who willfully mutilates,
defaces, removes or attempts to remove" any library book will be

De Gaulle said he insisted on
holding free elections in which
all persons could take part regard-
less of their political views.

- "The only persons excluded wil
be those who participate in terror-
ism and, because of this fact, ar
liable to prosecution," he said.
"The objective to be achieved F

Gaulle went on. "In this manner

punished by either a $100 -ne,<
suspension from the University,
or both.
New fines for overdue books will
be:
1) Twenty-five cents a day for
two-week books.
2) Twenty-five cents for the
first hours of overnight books and
50 cents for each additional hour.
3) Twenty-five cents additional
if a book is returned late and im-
mediate payment is avoided.
The new $100 fine coupled with
possible suspension was instituted
to protect the books in the Under-
graduate Library from a small
minority of students, Wagman
said.
The action was taken in an
attempt to reduce the high per-
eentage of books stolen in the first
semester of operation, he said.
Twenty per cent of the library
books used by undergraduates
were returned after they were due,
Wagman said, which necessitated
the increased fines. He said the
large percentage of overdue books
meant that some students were
seriously inconvenienced by not
getting the books they wanted
It was the first time since 1906
that library fines have been raised.

ROCKET BURNS OVER PACIFIC:
Air Force Speeds New Moon Project.

WASHINGTON (M)--United States Air Force scientists speeded
work on a new 'round-the-moon project yesterday within hours after
Moonrocket No. 1 fell short and plunged to flaming destruction.
Unofficial word from the Cape Canaveral, Fla. launching site was
that the new try would be made between Nov. 8 and 11, when next the
moon is closest to earth in its 28-day orbit.
Pioneer, man's first moonbound missile to crack through Earth's
atmosphere, soared to an unheard-of 79,120 miles before plunging back
to unobserved disintigration over the South Pacific early yesterday.
Failed To Disappoint Scientists
This space-pioneering venture failed to disappoint scientists in
that it groped only one-third of the distance to the moon. It reinforced
their confidence that they can "shoot the moon" and, eventually, reach
the planets and even the center of this "universe," the sun.
They were talking, too, in terms of sending human beings out into
space--a possibility less remote than' before in view of radioed data
from the short-lived Pioneer indicating that radiation danger decreases
as a missile forces farther and farther into space.
Maj. Gen. Bernard A. Schriever, chief of the Air Force Ballistic
Missile Division, said this new information "will be of great assistance
in improving instruments for future space and lunar probes and for
putting man into space."
One More Air Force Chance
The Air Force has one more chance, in the immediate future, to
try putting a flying laboratory like Pioneer in the vicinity of the moon.
It has been assigned three such lunar probe shots. The first attempt
failed Aug. 17 when the rocket exploded 77 seconds after takeoff. The
