LXXIV, No. 8-S ANN ARBOR, MICHIGAN, THURSDAY, JULY 2, 1964 SEVEN CENTS SIX PAGES Residence Planners Seek Innovations By LAURENCE KIRSHBAUM The residence college is being put together bit by bit. Its planners are utilizing the summer months to gather background data onhinnovations in buildings, curriculum and instructional techniques. Come fall, these planners-a faculty group headed by As- sociate Dean Burton Thuma of the literary college--will pool their material to set the specifications for the 1200-student, self-contained undergraduate college. It is to be situated and administrated autonomously from the rest of the campus. The location is a 40-acre tract between Fuller Rd. and the Huron River at the gateway to North Campus. Precisely what and where the final clump of buildings will be remains uncertain, since "a "residential college of this type is unique in American educa- tion," Thuma observes. Two members of the faculty plan- ning committee for the college, Prof. Theodore Newcombe of the sociology department -and Prof. Alan Gaylord of the Eng- lish department, will bring back first-hand accounts of - hsimilar experiments on the west coast. In addition, the group will ' springboard t h e i r thinking from a series of guidelines hatched by the literary college DEAN BURTON THUMA faculty. A first major question will be whether to launch the liberal arts unit in its own buildings-yet to be planned-or start a pilot group in West Quadrangle in 1965. Beyond that, here's a rundown on what the planners know and must decide: -The 1200 students will live in a complex of dormitories housing from 150-200 residents apiece. These residence halls will offer a choice of living units varying from suites to apartments for married couples, Thuma explains. Herbert Sigman, secretary of the faculty planners, noted their concern "with how to make dormitory living appealing for upperclassmen." He elaborates that the majority of upper- classmen usually evacuates the current residence hall system for apartments or Greek life. Those who stay do not interact effectively with the freshmen, he says. In the residence college, where the hope is that students voluntarily remain for all four years, the loss of older students would rob the educational process. -Clustered around the residence halls will be the academic. buildings. These structures should be conducive to innovation in learning and teaching, particularly facilitating independent study, according to Prof. Stanford Ericksen, director of the Cen- ter for Research on Learning and Teaching. -Once educational ideas are sufficiently concrete, the planners will be prepared to create the "bricks and mortar" plans for their product. Already John McKevitt, assistant to the vice-president for business and finance, has begun "site- planning" with an architectural firm. The planners will have about nine months, starting in the fall, to draft their educational and physical blueprint. This would permit a 1968 inauguration. Rush Sees Asia Victory without More Fighting By The Associated Press WASHINGTON-Secretary of State Dean Rusk said yesterday it should be possible to achieve peace in Southeast Asia, including the independence of the countries there, "without any extension of the fighting." Rusk told a news conference "our first objective is to explore that possibility." But he emphasized that United States interest in -peace did not mean "acquiescence Personnel Stage 'Park-In' O 0n North Campus Lawil Dirksen To Nominate Goldwater WASHINGTON (JP) - Arizona Senator Barry Goldwater's name will be placed in nomination at the Republican National Conven- tion two weeks hence by Sen. Everett M. Dirksen of Illinois, Dirksen said yesterday. "The request has been made, and I have agreed to it," Dirksen told a reporter. The Illinois senator, GOP Sen- ate leader, came out publicly for Goldwater at a caucus of the Il- linois convention delegation in Chicago. Staff Member Dirksen said later he was first approached with the suggestion he place Goldwater in nomination by a member of Goldwater's staff whom he did not identity, The staffer, Dirksen related, made the approach "within the last few days," telling Dirksen "Barry is a little shy about asking for himself." Dirksen described as "one of those speculative things" a re- porter's question as to whether he would accept a vice-presiden- tial nomination on a Goldwater ticket. 'As Well or Better' He said he has no reason to believe that Goldwater, as the GOP presidential c a n d i d a t e, "can't do as well or better" than anyone else to help Republican Senate and House candidates win election. He challenged anyone to name another Republican who has flown around the country, "in fair weather and foul," as he said, Goldwater has done to help House and Senate members with speeches. Dirksen said he is confident that Goldwater as President would carry out his oath of office and vigorously enforce the civil rights bill now nearing passage, even though he voted againsi it on grounds that parts of it are un- constitutional. to aggression" by the Communists in Laos and South Viet Nam. Questioned about whether the administration was blowing hot and cold on Southeast Asian war dangers from one week to anoth- er, Rusk said the situation is in- deed very risky and gravely dan- gerous in that the U.S. does not control all the critical decisions, which depend on what the Com- munists do. 'Uncertainty' He described the future as "crowded with uncertainty" and sai: that the emphasis made by public officials often determines whether their statements make an impreosicns as peace talks or talks ibout war.

Barry Goldwater picked up between six and eight first ballot delegate votes after a meeting yesterday with Gov. George Romney and the Michigan delegates to the GOP convention. It appeared that Romney is los- ing hisgtight grip on the state's 48 delegates, the Detroit x! ree Press reported. Besides the delegates rather certain to support Gold- water, from nine to 15 others were reported inclined to him. Last week GOP pros said that Goldwater had at best six votes. Two weeks before that party lead- ers were giving him only four votes. While Goldwater refused to comment on the situation, a field coordinator of his, Richard Klein- dienst, said that the Arizonian had 10 positive votes. "We really don't need them, be- cause we have enough to win the nomination," he said. Goldwater spent more than an hour with the delegates and Rom- ney behind closed doors and an- swered prepared questions. "The senator received a rising ovation when he got through (with the questioning)," Romney said later. "I wasn't entirely satis- fied with all his answers to the questions." Asked if Goldwater had answer- ed queries dealing with civil rights, foreign policy and economic con- centration of power, Romney said that "his answers just about bal- anced off my questions. In some areas it made it easier for me to get together with him; in others it made it harder."

REGISTRATION, STRIKES Farmer Outlines CORE Pans 'FOREIGN COUNTRY' Dotson Relates Southern Visit KANSAS CITY (AP) - The Con-' gress of Racial Equality will stage demonstrations at both national political conventions and will at- tempt to unseat the Mississippi delegation to the Democratic con- vention, the head of CORE said yesterday. James Farmer, National Direct- or of the civil rights organization, outlined CORE's summer program in advance of the group's 22nd an- nual national convention that opens here today. He said the program will in- clude: Voter Registration --Crash voter registration drives in Mississippi, Louisiana and North Florida and a stepping up of CORE community centers in Mississippi-especially at Merid- ian where three civil rights work- ers disappeared recently. -Rent strikes in Chicago and organization of unemployed work squads. These squads will clean up vacant lots and other civic nuisances, then present the bill at city hall to prove there "is work to be done and that there are jobs for the unemployed." -The 21 CORE chapters in California will stage demonstra- tions at the Bank of America, the world's largest bank, demanding that 300 to 800 Negroes be hired. The bank employs 30,000 people, Farmer said. Unseating -CORE will pay half the ex- pense of transporting 68 Missis- sippians-mostly Negroes-to the Democratic convention in Atlantic City in August to challenge the seating of the delegation. -As soon as the civil rights bill is signed "CORE delegates return- ing from this convention will be urged to go to places of public ac- commodation to see whether the law is being enforced," Farmer said. He read a telegram sent to Pres- ident Lyndon B. Johnson yester- day: Law Enforcement "No less than in Oxford and Little Rock, law enforcement in Mississippi has broken down. The intervention of the federal gov- ernment is essential to preserve the lives and property of Ameri- can citizens engaged in peaceful activities protected by the United States Constitution. Such power Broaden Hunt In Mississippi PHILADELPHIA, Miss. (P) - The broadening hunt for three missing civil rights workers cen- tered in neighboring Newton County yesterday with officials still mystified as to what hap- pened to the trio 10 days ago. A force of 400 sailors, led by a dozen officers, pushed through dense, overgrown marshes, and three helicopters checked clear- ings. Dragging operations in this Neshoba County area-where the trio vanished June 21-were sus- pended. FBI and state agents re- sumed a door-to-door quest for information. Search leaders were baffled at the lack of clues to the disappear- ance of Michael Schwerner, 24 and Andrew Goodman, 20, white New Yorkers and James Chaney, 22, a Negro from nearby Meridian. They were last seen when they posted a $20 bond here for speed- ing. They left town headed south on Rt. 19 toward Meridian. Their charred station wagon was found two days later at the edge of a swamp north of here. As the hunt shifted further from Philadelphia, this Neshoba County seat settled back to nor- mal. A press corps that numbered nearly a hundred last week was down to a handful. Schwerner, Goodman and Chan- ey were members of a task force working on a summer-long edu- cation and voter registration cam- paign among Mississippi Negroes. By DAVID LAMBERT "I felt after I got off the bus as if I were in a foreign country in which a war was going on," Rev. Paul R. Dotson said last night in the first of a series of lectures sponsored by the B'nai B'rith Hillel Foundation. Dotson recently returned from civil rights work in the Mississippi town of Hattiesburg, where he was helping register Negro voters. He was received with what he called "Southern hospitality: Mississippi style." On his arrival the local civil rights headquarters was stoned by belligerent citizens. Dotson discussed the opposing beliefs in the South on segrega- tion. "You have a hard time be- lieving that people think the Negro must be kept in his place," he said. "People who try to change these ideas are called meddlers". Dotson described the state as a closed society seeking to exist in a pro-slavery atmosphere. He noted that the well intentioned white man of Mississippi is a captive of this society. Dotson told of his experi- ences in meeting various southern white people. "Almost 60 per cent of the police in this area were ru- mored to be members of the Ku Klux Klan: police by day and hate-seekers by night," he said. Of the 7200 Negroes of voting age in the area, only 12 were registered when he arrived in Forest County. Through civil rights efforts and federal action 300 were registered for the recent primary. R phmfbrt WP Mn V He described the work of the many students who have volun- teered their time to work on Ne- gro voter registration in many areas of the south this summer. Most of them work in the Negro community and live with Negro families, he said. "They've made their decision to work in the Negro community and to help that community as much as possible." Dotson had been asked why he was going to Mississippi. His reply, he said, was "The students are going to Mississippi. The question is whether we are going to stand behind them or not." exists presently in the hands off the agencies of the U. S. govern- ment.,. "Therefore we demand effectiveb use of the U. S.

At a news conference in Omaha, Malcolm X said his organization has telegraphed the Rev. Martin Luther King that it is ready to send help to St. Augustine if the federal government does not pro- vide aid. The day of "turning the other cheek to these brute beasts is over," he said. "We can send enough help to get results." He declared he does not advo- cate "initiating violence. But only a few days ago President Lyndon B. Johnson warned others that America would strike back if our interests were jeopardized. We feel the Negro should be prepared to defend his life and his prop- erty." In a public address Malcolm X declared "America is the country of the past and Africa is the country of the future. "If we don't get help here, we shall seek allies elsewhere such as in Asia, Africa and Latin Amer- ica," he said. He said, "It's time to start swinging. The only thing that. stops a man with a shotgun is another man with a shotgun. It s. ridiculous to send our people into' an area and tell them to be peace- ful when they're confronted there by blue-eyed whites armed with the most vicious weapons imagin- able." 'Guests' Boost 'U' Enrollment Demonstrate Against New Regulations Seek Talks with 'U' To Continue Protests Today, Tomorrow By ROBERT HIPPLER Over 200 North Campus person- nel staged a 'park-in' on the lawn next to the Phoenix Project yes- terday, protesting new North Campus parking regulations which went into effect at the same time. The protest move also spread to the University's Plant Depart- ment facilities in the old Hoover Ball & Bearing Co. plant, with large numbers of employes park- ing their cars along the street instead of in the lots. The Traffic Bureau of the Ann Arbor Police Department recorded the license numbers of all who parked their cars in the vacant lot, the police department said. Another source confirmed that all cars were given warning notices stating that they were subject to possible removal from the lot. However, John W. Walters, ad- ministrative assistant for parking, said yesterday that "we are not going to have the cars towed off during the three-day protest per- iod." The protestors plan to keep 'parking-in' today and tomorrow and are awaiting consideration from the University. Until yesterday, all parking places on North Campus were free. Now there are about 100 free places left, since the University has installed 150 parking meters and made 650 parking spaces available only to those with $25 yearly permits. The installations and regula- tions were part of a University plan to integrate North Campus into the scheme of the Central Campus parking plan. "We feel that this is the year to move, be- cause we must solve the growing problems of parking space," Wil- bur K. Pierpont, vice-president for business and finance, said. "More students are parking on North Campus all the time." The piotest group met later in the day and issued an open letter stating their position and seeking a one month moratorium "during which time an equitable arrange- An Open Letter The following open letter was written by representatives of the North Campus employees organization protesting Univer- sity meters on the lots where ' they park: "We want to inform the Uni- versity community of the fail- ure of negotiation between the faculty, students and research and the parking administra- tion. "Parking regulations now in effect on North Campus were instituted with no discussion with the faculty, students and research personnel on North Campus. Because of many dis- tinct differences, North Cam- pus does not pose the problems of Central Campus. This is true of parking. "We are boycotting paid parking facilities in order to be heard. We wish only a stop- page of present parking regu- lations for one month, during which time an equitable ar- rangement can be worked out for all the diverse and special cases on North Campus.

Foster, president of Tus-I kegee Institute, said yesterday. Essentially optimistic about the outcome of the Negro's struggle to obtain the same rights as other citizens, Foster spoke at the opening of a summer lecture series, "The American Negro in Tran- sition: 1964." The last decade has marked an acceleration of attempts to promote full, responsible Negro citizenship, Foster declared. Although segregationists remain admamant in some areas, it is evident that the whole structure of American society is being reshaped to en- courage equal participation of all citizens. Not Yet Full-Fledged Although much progress has been made in this transitional per- iod, the Negro has not yet taken his place as a full-fledged citizen, he id.
