Plan Offers
Latter Hours
For Women
By JANE McCARTHY
A plan for the revision of wo-
men's hours was presented to the
League Senate at yesterday's
meeting.
The plan, devised by the Wo-
men's Judiciary Council and ap-
proved by the Dean of Women's
office, has only four actual
changes, Sarah Drasin, '59, chair-
man of Women's Judiciary Coun-
cil, said. These include a mid-
night closing for upperclassmen
and an 11 pam. closing for fresh-
den .Sunday through Thursday,
eight automatic late permissions
per semester for freshmen and a
10:5epim. closing for the housing
units.
Houses to Form Own Policies
A clause was added at the sug-
gestion of Christine Wells, '9Ed.,
Assembly vice-president, stating
that "individual housing units,
with the concurrence of Women's
Judiciary Council, would formu-
late policies concerning house
meetings."
This would enable the inde-
pendent houses to enforce an
early closing hour for house meet-
ing whenever they wished.
At first, Miss Drasin said, a
midnight closing for all women
had been planned, but pressure
fa theeDean of Women's office,
the house directors and the girls
themselves brought about the ear-
Der closing for freshmen.
Elintes 'Patchwork
The housing units would close
to, visitors and callers at 10:55
p.m. but women could enter:and
leave until midnight.
The revised hours would elim-
Inate the present "patchwork" of
women'p hours, Miss Drasin said.
They" would abolish irregular
hours during the two days preced-
ing vacations. ALP's for upper-
classmen, the 45 minute extension
for University-sponsored events,
special "senior hours," Irregular
hours for orientation and regis-
ration week, summer session
hours and special holiday and va-
cation hours.
Technic' Sale
The immediate reaction of the
Council, which Taub characterizedi
as. "shocked disbelief," disip-4
pointed him because they either
assumed he wasn't serious or that
such talks would concern specific
problems such as the jurisdictional
dispute with the administration,,
he said.
"It makes me a little sick to my,
s omach," Assembly Association
Zresident Pat Marthenke, '59, had
declared, "that we are taking this
motion seriously."
Agrees with idea,
Miss Marthenke said in Mem-
bers' Time that this statement
had been "an emotional outburst,"
and that she agreed whole-heart-
edly that a thorough discussion of
the value and aims of student
government was in order.
Union President Barry Shapiro,
'59, said, "Instead of preaching,
as in The Daily, let's try to be
constructive. This is nothing but a"
waste of time."
Goldman said he felt the "sen-
sationalism completely unneces-
sary" since a motion to devote
time to discussing the point to
student government would be in
order at any time.
Says Value Low
Moreover, Goldman continued,
he does not see how anyone could
.chair such a meeting nor how any
conclusions could be reached
which would be of any value when
the cards were down.
Two diametrically opposite con-
cepts of student government have
been presented, Taub said during
Members Time. He was referring
to the view expressed by Goldman
and Chrysler in speeches preceding
the election.
"Student government has one
purpose only," Chrysler said. "This
is to benefit the Council, the stu-
dent body and the University in
general.
h nrCooperation Lacking
Pointing to the Sigma Kappa
issue as an example, Chrysler said
that cooperation among the mem-
bers of SGC and between the
Council, students and administra-
tion has been noticeably lacking.
"If the original concept of stu-
dent government were kept in
mind, the Council would have both
student trust and the confidence
of the administration," he de-
- clared.
"Power in the Council has grown
more concentrated," Chrysler
maintained. "I would like to see
the power restored to the 18 SGC
members."
World News
Roundup
Goldman countered Chrysler's
statements, saying, "Student gov-
ernment is a government by and
for the students. It is not a gov-
ernment in cooperation with the
administration and faculty.
"We have tried to cooperate and.
compromise in past months in;
dealing with Sigma Kappa," he
continued. "But there comes a'
time when you can cooperate a
body right out of existence."
Goldman said that he has stood
for "strong, effective student gov-
ernment." It should be strong in
that it should stand up for its
ideas and it must be effective by
working in areas of responsibility,
he explained.
Defeat Calendaring Move
Immediately preceding Taub's
motion to dissolve the Council,
SGC defeated a motion to assign
all scheduling of events to the
Calendaring Committee barring
serious conflicts.
Because the Council now pays so
little attention to event calendar.
ing, perhaps the power should be
delegated to the committee, Fred
Merrill, '59, said. But ideally, he
continued, this should not happen.
David Kessel, Grad., revealed in
Members' Time that he "had come
prepared to resign his seat on the
Council.,
"The Council is not dealing with
important problems in the right
way," he maintained.
Kessel indicated he had recon-
sidered this decision upon learning
that SGC was going to consider
the aims of student government.
Sudan Vows
To Keep Pacts
Of Republic
CAIRQ (2P)-Sudan's new revo-
lutionary government said yester-
day it would adhere to all inter-
national commitments made by
the old republic before the coup
Monday. ,
A Khartoum broadcast men-
tioned especially its dealings with
the United Nations and the Arab
League and reaffirmed that the
Sudan laws would remain intact.
Both Egypt and Britain, the
former joint rulers of Sudan, now
have recognized the Khartoum
regime.
Britain's recognition came one
day after the Egyptian notice of
recognition to strongman Gen.
Ibrihim Abboud.
The Middle East news agency
reported President Gamal Abdel
Nasser and Abboud exchanged
messages of good will during the
day.

By KATHLEEN MOORE
"Religious interest and practice
shall not be stultified in the uni-
versity," Arthur S. Adams, presi-
dent of the American Council on
Education, said yesterday morn-
ing during the University Convo-
cation on "Religion in Today's
University."
Adams voiced his opinions on
the place religion should assume
in a university environment, in
both the student's study of it as
an academic discipline and hisE
practice of a particular religious4
faith.I
Cites Growing Student Interest
It is the university's responsi-
bility to provide adequate reli-
gious teaching, he said, to satisfy
the growing student interest in .
religion, "irrespective of the
source of the interest" which he
claimed may stem from a yearn-
ing for "inner security" or an in-
tellectual concern for answers to
"ultimate questions" on human
purpose.
In any program of credit
courses in religion, it is neces-
sary to treat the subject "objec-
tively," he emphasized, drawing
the often "shadowy" line between
objectivity and "commitment to a
particular creed" by giving each
creed equally intensive study in
an intellectually stimulating com-
parative religions course.
Ministers Should Be Leaders
But he was "quick to add" that
there is nothing "essentially
wrong" in this attitude which he
said is often a result of the mu-
tual religious convictions of the
members.
RELIGIOUS CONFERENCE-Arthur S. Adams (left) spoke at the
University Convocation yesterday morning on the role of the
state-supported university in the teaching of religion. Following
the Convocation, a luncheon was held in honor of President
Harlan Hatcher, who spoke of a reemphasis on spiritual values in
university courses.
Education Must Resolve
Problems To Get Funds
By LANE VANDERSLICE
If education solves the problems that are essentially its own re-
sponsibility, financial support will come along, Arthur S. Adams said
in his second speech of the day.
Adams spoke before the 12th annual Conference on Higher Edu-
cation.
Education should not give first place in its list of problems to
lack of financial support, he said. Education needs to earn public

Experts Believe West
May Have To Yield
To Communist Rule
BERLIN (IP-Russla intends to
give satellite East Germany con-
trol. over allied air, highway and
rail links to isolated West Berlin,
a, responsible Soviet' source said
last night.
Confirming East German hints,
the communist informant said
this was the meaning of Premier
vikita Khrushchev's Nov. 10 speech
n Moscow.
Khrushchev told the United
States, Britain and France to get
out of West Berlin. He promised
Russia would hand over its occu-
pation rights in Berlin to the East
Germans.
West Ignores East Germany
Khrushchev, however, did not
spell out whether he would risk a
new East-West crisis by also trans-
erring supervision of Allied acces
to West Berlin to the Germa
satellite.
The United States, Britain and
France do not recognize and re-
fuse to have any dealings with
the German satellite regime.
Refusal of the Allies to yield to
East German controls might lead
o a blockade of their army gari-'
ons in West Berlin.
Nations Might Yield
If left no choice, experts here
believe the three nations would
yield to controls while making it
clear that this does not constitute
recognition of the East German
government.
They would officially regard East
Germans manning the checlc-
points as simply agents of the
Russians.
The Soviet source, however, con-
tended they would have to settle
any disputes directly with East
Germany.
