Under the plan the school year has been divided into three seg- ments-two semesters and a summer session-corresponding roughly to the present academic year. However, the two semesters begin about Stewart Accepts GOP Request On Redistricting Decision Delay " three weeks before they do now, and are slightly shorter than the present fall and spring terms. One Vacation Orientation for the fall semes- ter, 1963, is slated for late August, with classes set to begin Sept. 3. This first semester will have only onevacation, extending from Nov. 27 through Dec. 2. Shortly after this, final exam- inations will be held, and the term will end Dec. 21. The second semester will get un- derway Jan. 12, 1964. It will be several weeks longer than first s64nester, continuing through May 23 Mid-June Start The 1964 Summer Session class- es will begin in late June, which corresponds to the present aca- demic calendar, and will be com- pleted by Aug: 21.

"FRITZ" CRISLER ... schedule troubles Cfrifer Sees By AL JONES The future full year operation program "will most certainly have some effect" on the intercollegiate athletic program at the Universi- ty, according to Athletic Director H. 0. "Fritz" Crisler. "We can't be sure what adjust- ments will be needed as yet," Cris- ler states. "The Board in Control of Intercollegiate Athletics will have to do a great deal of study in this area." The most severe problem which the trimester program, voted into effect for the 1963-64 school year by the Regents yesterday, will pose for athletic scheduling will be in the late spring. Spring Sports At present the Michigan spring teams (baseball, track, tennis and golf) begin play in early April and finish their Western Confer- ence schedules the last weekend in May. This is standard throughout the country. Under the trimester program, however, the spring semester will be completed early in May, with the study period before examina- tions, and the examinations them- selves, coming in the latter half of May-right in the heart of the spring sports schedules. "We have thought about this," Crisler states, "but no decisions have been made. We could break our former policy of holding no practices and contests during study and examination periods, and the schedules would need no major re- vision. 'Cont-ary to Philosophy' "But such action would be quite contrary to our philosophy." Another scheduling difficulty caused by the new semester dates will concern pre-school football practice in the fall. In past years the football team has started on See NEW, Page 4 To Examine U.S. Policy On Contracts By GERALD STORCH With the spectre of the 20 per cent limitation for indirect costs in Defense Department research grants looming before them, re- search heads "from about a half- dozen universities" will confer within the next few weeks on a common policy to adopt towards whether to continue accepting such grants, Vice-President for Re- search Ralph Sawyer said yester- day. Any hostile opinions directed to- wards the defense grants will be tempered, however, by the good prospects for a provision in grants from the Health, Education and Welfare Department which would increase the allowance for indirect costs (space and facilities) from 15 to 20 per cent, he said. The HEW move would give the University about another $200,000, Sawyer said. It is uncertain at this time as to how much the defense grants, in which the government previously subsidized the full7 amount of indirect expenses, would cost the University. Indirect Costs Currently, the University finds that the indirect costs run up to more than 30 per cent that of theE direct costs (supplies and salar- ies) of this grant. A conference group of the House and Senate Appropriations Com- mittees, having approved the 20 per cent provision in the Defense1 Department's appropriation two days ago, is expected to pass sim- ilar action on the HEW appropria-t tion within the next week. Informal Reaction Sawyer said the universities' meeting in reaction to the commit-t tee would be informal and wouldT seek only to determine whether1 there is any benefit in adopting ai common stand towards the revisedt limitations.1 Last week, when the congres- sion group was debating the de-x fense appropriation, Sawyer had threatened to turn down all de-i fense grants (which account forc about $8 million of the $25 millionz worth of federal reesarch donez here) and to continue but not in- crease the amount of grants re-l ceived from the HEW.i PEACE: Algeria Factions Seek Unity ALGIERS (-) - Algeria's rival political leaders yesterday appear- .::,. . ed headed for a compromise in forts to spare theweary nation< more bloodshed.. ... See box, Page 3 could see there would be no addi- tional graduation ceremonies for Summer Session graduates. Vice-President for Academic Af- fairs Roger W. Heyns noted that non-academic activities "will have to progress and change after the program (trimester) is fully im- plemented." Heyns expressed his confidence that this could be done with only a slight amount of dif- ficulty. Announce Exams Later The Dean's Conference, consist- ing of the deans of all the various schools and departments whose duty it is to prepare the academic calendar-noted that the exact time of the examination period for each school and college, which was not included in the year's plans, will be announced early during each semester. The Regents also approved two by-law changes. The first, proposed by Vice-Pres- ident for Research Ralph A. Saw- yer, was intended to permit re- searchers to be members of the In- stitute of Science and Technology's Executive Committee. Change Rules The second change relaxes the rules on duplicate diplomas for University graduates. This action came as result of a complaint by an alumnus who lost his diploma as a result of a fire and was upset as a result of Uni- versity rule. In other action, the Regents ac- cepted a $1,200 scholarship grant which guarantees $600 per year for two years to a financially needy, student. While the recipient will not be expected to pay back this amount, he assumes a "moral obli- gation" to establish an opportuni- ty award in his name, thus provid- ing a continuing scholarship fund.1 Moderate Premier Ben Yousself Ben Khedda and several of his ministers met with Mohammed Khider, special envoy and right- hand man of dissident deputy pre- mier Ahmed Ben Bella. Informants said "all is being arranged." They cited the release of Col. Souat El Arab in Con- stantine by Ben Bella's followers as proof of what they called "the climate of confidence." No Announcements But there was no official an- nouncement and no solid indica- tion how the tottering Ben Khedda regime and Ben Bella's followers intended to iron out their dif- ficulties. In the past, frequently optimistic appraisals turned into black pes- simism overnight. Earlier amid the news of kid- napings of six more Europeans by Moslems, several French army pa- trols reappeared in the streets. French Patrols It was the first time since Al- geria's independence July 3, that armed French soldiers showed up in the capital. France has indicat- ed its 300,000-man army in Algeria would intervene in case the lives and property of European settlers are threatened. The kidnappings of Europeans were blamed on what Algiers police headquarters called "uncontrolled Moslem elements." Calls for peace came from all parts of the country. Political and trade organizations joined in the appeals. National Unity "Our people demand nationalt unity as rapidly as possible," said M'hammed Yazid, who announced Monday that he was resigning as information minister.

(P-Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., for the third time in nine months, was jailed yesterday as Negroes resumed anti- segregation demonstrations in this embattled racial test spot. King and nine other Negroes attempted to hold "a prayer vigil" at city hall and were arrested. Eighteen other persons, including a white youth, went to jail little more than an hour later for a similar protest. Led by Charles Jones of the Student Nonviolent Co- nrinfnr(!miffti d illin mo Appeal Validates Senatorial Primary Legislature May Not Deliberate On Reapportionment This Year Supreme Court Justice Potter Stewart put the Senate re- apportionment problem on ice yesterday when he accepted three GOP senators' request for a delay in effecting the Michi- gan Supreme Court decision ordering redistricting. As a result of the appeal by Senators Paul Younger (R- Lansing), Frank Beadle (R-St. Clair) and John Fitzgerald (R- Grand Ledge), the Aug. 7 senatorial primary will be held, none of the state court's deadlines will be valid, and the Legisla- ture may not consider reapportioning the Senate this year. Two Considerations Stewart said his decision to stay the state Supreme Court order requiring redistricting on a population basis Aug. 20 or face an at-large election. was based on two considera- tions: 1) Will the United States want to review the Michigan case; and 2) Which would produce "irre- parable harm"-staying the order or accepting it. Stewart said the Michigan case raises a new federal question of whether the equal protection clause of the 14th Amendment re- quires both houses of a state leg- islature to be on population only., No Harm The justice indicated that stay- ing the case would do no harm while not staying might bring damage. "Important legislation cannot be enacted in a hurry. This would be unwilling action by the state Sen-! ate taken under compulsion and it might turn out to be unneces- sary," he declared. Granting the stay will continue the present system of election for one more election, he pointed out. Lesser Evil If in the next two years the Supreme Court invalidates the Michigan ruling no harm was done by the delay. If it does the results are the lesser of two evils, Stewart asserted. Senate Judiciary Chairman Carlton Morris (R-Kalamazoo) who witnessed the decision in Lit- tleton, N.H., yesterday called his committee into session today to, consider its implications. GOP Report Morris said that the majority Republicans, some of whom were in New Hampshire yesterday, would report on the decision and indicate how it would effect the state. Shortly after the decision was announced, Secretary of State James M. Hare sent a telegram to the 83 county clerks informing them of the decision and order- ing them to make sure senatorial candidates names appeared on the ballot or voting machines and that the votes for this race were count- ed. The Legislature a d j o u r n e d Thursday until Dec. 27, but its members were notified that they would be called back if the deci- sion went against the Senate. Even with the favorable decision, the Legislature may return after the primary to consider reapportion- ment, Senate Minority Leader Raymond Dzendzel (D-Detroit) predicted. Senate Majority Leader Lynn See OPINIONS, Page 3 Britain, Common Market Dispute Agriculture Policy BRUSSELS (IP)-European Common Market negotiations for Brit- ain's entry hit a snag yesterday over a British demand that trade outlets for agricultural products from the Commonwealth remain at present levels.

About 10 of them were carried into the jail on stretchers after they refused to move. All 28 were charged with dis- orderly conduct, congregating on the sidewalk and refusing to obey an officer. About 700 Negroes attending a mass rally tonight were told by Andrew Young, another aide to King, that "tomorrow it's your turn to go." King and his group were ar- rested after they stepped from cars in front of city hall to hold their "prayer vigil." Meanwhile in Los Angeles, Atty. Gen. Robert Kennedy said gains n the fight against racial dis- crimination are being made faster now than at any time since the Civil War.b Kennedy told 1,200 members of the Negro National Insurance As- sociation last night that your pro- gress, which we see all around us, has convinced me that the day s not far off when no American will be denied full rights of citi- zenship because of color of his skin or because of his beliefs." Heyns Cites 'U' Recruiting of Professors Vice-President for Academic Af- fairs Roger Heyns yesterday told the Regents of his confidence in the University's ability to attract "good young men" into the faculty. Much of the reason, he said, lies in the "gratifying effect on facul- ty morale" provided by salary in- creases. Without them, "it would have been impossible to maintain our faculty." Heyns continued that "the in- creases have helped us to regain in part the salary position we for- merly held in relation to our ma- jor competitors. We have been los- ing this position steadily during the past four years, and even with our excellent action this year, have only partially regained lost ground. "To keep pace next year," Heyns said, "it is certain that we will have to plan on salary increases, and in this respect we'll have to have substantial help from the state Legislature." -1 POTTER STEWART .. delays orders EL VEiJEM: Heart Attack Kills Official At Wisconsin MADISON (A)-Conrad A. Elve- hjem, a shy, reserved man who became one of America's most dis- tinguished scientists and presi- dent of the University of Wiscon- sin, died yesterday of a heart at- tack. He was 61. Elvehjem, president of the uni- versity since 1958, was stricken shortly after arriving at his office.. Rushed to Madison General Hos- pital, he died there about 90 min- utes later. His personal physician, Dr. F. L. Hummer, attributed the death to a "sudden coronary oc- clusion." Internationally known as a bio- chemist in nutrition when he took over as the university's 13th presi- dent, Elvehjem was in the fore- front of the search in the '30's to isolate and identify specific vita- mins. In 1937 Elvehjem was able to identify an enzyme found in fresh meat and yeast as a new vit- amin-nicotinic acid-now called Niacin. Speculation on a successor to Elvehjem centered on university Vice-President Fred H. Harring- ton, who recently accepted a bid to become president of the Univer- sity of Hawaii.
