We should have faith in the student to make his own educational decision," he added. The new degree would demand 50 hours of work in junior and senior-level courses, but w o u 1 d not require the student to know a foreign language or major in any department. Smith said the degree would need a "rigorous and zealous stu- dent" to satisfy the 50-hour rule. Prof. James Gindin, chairman of the college curriculum commit- tee, attacked the proposed degree as "easily becoming a repository for an inferior program." "At best we are asking the stu- dent to gamble, in a kind of aca- demic Russian roulette, with the implications of an unknown de- gree." Gindin was challenged by Prof. E. Lowell Kelly of the psychology department. "The new degree would not provide for elitism within the college but for plural- ism. Whether it becomes a cheap degree depends on the students who pursue it," Kelly said. He pointed out the University already grants a wide variety of Bachelor of Arts degrees in the various schools and colleges. Prof. Ronald Tikovsky, another ad hoc committee member, came to the defense of the proposed degree. "The strength of the degree lies in the kind of coursework the stu- dent takes," he said, pointing out the new degree was modeled along the lines of a Ph.D. degree. "If the degree is not meaning- ful, it means the courses we of- fer in the college are weak," Ti- kovsky added. One new proposal concerning the language requirement was intro- duced by Prof. Russell Fraser of the English department. Fraser advocated a two-year proficiency requirement in a foreign language for admission to the college. This was seen as an amendment to the curriculum committee's mi- nority recommendation, which would require two years of high school. study for admission, r e - gardless of the student's profic- iency in a language.' In other action, the faculty un- animously passed a resolution from Prof. William LeVeque of the mathematics department asking that the faculty be given decis- ion-making power on college ad- missions policies. The resolution calls on the Re- gents and University administra- tors tolet the faculty annually establish enrollment quota and limits.

U.S., State probe Ferris (Continued from Page 1) make any further comment on the investigations. The statement disclaimed any racial overtones in the protest and made clear that it was Sparthelf not the governor, who ordered in the police. He claimed that rumors "sug- gesting the blacks' action was prompted for fear of persona: safety is not rationally war- ranted." "Small groups of white students were also fearful but they did not as a result take over buildings con- trary to law," the president con- tinued. "No small task is that of dis- pelling continuing and recurring rumor," Sparthelf concluded. But Conyers replied to Spart- helf's statement saying if it i correct, "My legislative assistance Dr. Albert Wheeler (president o the state NAACP) and numerou students are all wrong." Sparthelf refused to discuss th investigations saying only, "I don' have any comment about the 100 statements by 100 different people telling me how to run the college who aren't at all remotely in- volved." When asked about the black students' demands, Sparthelf said "I am not going to accept any demands at any time. I will talk to them."

Program Informationl665-6290 TODAY-Shows at 1:00- 3:00-5:00-7:00-9:05 P.M. the news today by The Associated Press and College Press Serice PRESIDENT NIXON last night said his trip to Europe had created "a new relationship of trust and confidence." In his White House news conference, Nixon claimed his journey to five allied capitals helped prepare for future summit talks with the Soviet Union. Nixon added he always has indicated that before the United States enters direct talks with the Soviet Union there must be "clear understand- ing" with American allies and friends. Nixon also said "we will not tolerate" continuation of SCommunist attacks in Vietnam in violation of the under- standing which led to the Paris peace talks. He warned, "an appropriate response to these attacks will be made if they continue." COMMUNIST EAST GERMANY blockaded all traffic on the main autobahn to the west for two hours late yesterday. The blockade is the most serious in a sequence of har- assments engineered by the East Germans in protest against the imminent election of a West German president in West Berlin. The East Germans and the Russians claim West Berlin is not a part of West Germany but a third and separate German entity, and hold that the planned election is illegal. Within the Communist-walled city, leftist students joined the protest. About 500 demonstrators on the Kurfuerstendam, halted traffic and shouted "sieg hell" at West Berlin's police. MORE THAN 1.4 MILLION SOLDIERS AND CIVIL- IANS continued marching in anti-Soviet demonstrations in Peking yesterday. Radio Peking claimed "tens of millions" throughout China took part in the second straight day of protests follow- ing the Soviet-Chinese struggle which occured on the Man- churian border Sunday. Tanjug, the Yugoslav news agency, said crowds blocking off the Soviet embassy in Peking appeared to be well organiz- ed. Tanjug reported the mob assailed the "new Russian czars" and shouted anti-Soviet and anti-American slogans. Tass News agency said Russian workers in mass meetings near the border protested the Communist Chinese "impertin- ent armed provocation." The two nations exchanged protest notes Monday. *f. . THE APOLLO 9 ASTRONAUTS fired their powerful rocket engine yesterday, soaring up to 315 miles from earth and preparing for a blistering work pace today. Air Force Cols. James McDivitt and David Scott and civil- ian Russell Schweickart fired the rocket engine three times, testing how well they can handle the awkward coupling of the command module and the lunar module. All three burns went smoothly. The astronauts also prepared for their first live tele- vision broadcast which is planed for today. HUNDREDS OF TEACHERS, researchers a n d stu- dents protesting "military involvement" in higher educa- tion cut classes and work in colleges around the country yesterday. I The one-day work strike was led by the Union of Con- cerned Scientists, founded at Massachusetts Institute of Tech- nology, to protest what they called "involvement with the military industrial complex." At MT, about 1,000 persons, mostly students, turned out for the first of a series of symposiums similar to those held _ in conjunction with the demonstrations around the country. Generally, the movements did little to interrupt regular uni- versity routine. ALLEGATIONS OF BRUTALITY and perversion in f Arkansas and Virginia state prisons were unfolded at a s senate hearing yesterday. Sen. Strom Thurmond accused o n e witness of giving "nauseating and disgusting" testimony in a publicity-seeking D bid to "besmirch the great state of Virginia." The charge by the South Carolina Republican came during the 21/2 hour hearing of Sen. Thomas Dodd's juvenile delinquency sub- - committee which is holding a series of hearings on prison conditions. - ALLIED FORCES intensified ground sweeps in Viet- nam yesterday in an attempt to upset communist plans for a second phase of a spring offensive. U.S. military analysts said they believed the first phase had ended, at least in' the Saigon area. They expected a sec- ond and more violent series of attacks this weekend or early next week. The ground sweeps so far have failed to smoke out the 15 communist battalions - possibly 7,500 men - believed com- mitted to attacks aimed ultimately at Saigon when the of- fensive began 10 days ago. TWO OF THE BIGGEST U.S. OIL COMPANIES, At- lantic Richfield Co. and Sinclair Oil Corp., were joined yesterday in what may be the biggest oil company mer- ger of all time. The justice department had reluctantly agreed to the merger Monday, which has been in the works since last Oc- tober. Stringent conditions imposed by the government would allow for future restoration of the two separate companies if court appeals opposing the merger are successful. The merged company will operate under the Atlantic- Richfield name. I i PROFESSIONAL THEATRE PROGRAM TOCO9OGM4Q '"The Apple Tree' is three of the most charming and witty musicals imaginable.
