COLLEGE ROUNDUP:
Officials Prepare Marriage Ban Appeal

By HELENE SCHIFF
NEW YORK - The executive
board of St. John's University has
announced plans to appeal a state
supreme court justice's order to
reinstate three Roman Catholic
students expelled because they
took part in a civil wedding cere-
mony.
Justice George Ellperin recently
ordered the Catholic University to
reinstate the three students on the
grounds that their dismissals
were based on a "vague and in-
definite" regulation which re-
quired students to live up to the
"ideal of Christian education and
conduct.
One of the students said the
civil ceremony was held because he

believed he was going to be called
into military service and felt it
would not allow sufficient time for
the formalities required of a Cath-
olic marriage.

DETROIT -- The Wayne State
University chapter of American
Association of University Profes-
sors released a statement recently
which said that its members "find
it difficult to believe that Presi-
dent Clarence Hilberry based his
action upon the question of com-
petence in cancelling out two
scheduled on-campus speakers re-
cently.
On May 22 President Hilberry
refused to permit Carl Braden and
Frank Wilkinson who had been

convicted of contempt of Congress
for refusing to answer questions
put to them by the House Com-
mittee on Un-American Activities.
When Hilberry cancelled the
speakers a few hours before the
scheduled meeting, he said, "The
ultimate responsibility for making
a sound judgment as to whether
their contribution will be consis-
tent with the functions of this
university rests with me and I am,
therefore, constrained to deny the
permission for the proposed meet-
ing."
The AAUP statement added,
"We believe it more probable that
his action was based upon the fear
of criticism of the university
which might follow from the ex-

pression upon this campus
views unpopular with certain
ments of the community."

MINNEAPOLIS - The Faculty
Senate of the University of Min-
nesota approved a University re-
organization plan which would
create a College of Liberal Studies
including all departments whose
programs lead to a B.A. degree
The plan will be put into effect
only after further study of its de-
tails is, made and approved by the
Board of Regents. If accepted, the
plan will probably go into effect in
the fall of 1963, a faculty spokes-
man said.
The plan also suggests an All-
University Council on Liberal Edu-
cation which would establish the
requirements for all bachelor's de-'
grees, whether in arts or sciences.
URBANA-CHAMPAIGN - Stu-
dents at the University of Illinois
recently initiated a plan to avert
cheating during final examina-
tions.
Several students in the Litera-
ture, Arts and Science School sent
a letter to members of the facul-
ty in allowing cheating to exist.
This led to a campaign to uncover
the sources and causes of cheating
and toarouse student interest in
the problem.
Students interested in volun-
teering information to the experi-
mental program on cheating were
asked to call a special staff that
was set up for this purpose.
EAST LANSING - The Board
of 'Irustees of Michigan State
University revised the off-campus
housing regulations by equalizing
the rules for men and women.
Under the new policy, drawn up
by the Faculty Committee on Stu-
dent Affairs, men and women 21
and over may live in unapproved,
unsupervised housing with par-
ents' permission. Previously only
men and women over 25 were al-
lowed to live in unapproved and
unsupervised housing.
A second part of the policy re-
quires students under 21 who don't
have to live in residence halls to
live within the East Lansing city
limits.

DURHAM - Duke University
became the third major North
Carolina college to wipe out all

trustees voted to change the ad-
missions policy so as to "admit
qualified applicants to degree pro-
grams without regard to race,
creed or national origin."

In Faculty,
U' Sculptor
Six men who had been connect-

cbntly.
Carleton W. Angell, University
Museums artist since 1926, died
June 1 in Ann Arbor.
During his lifetime, he produced
more than 600 pieces of sculpture

A facility that combines instruc-
tion and research in an area of
great natural beauty, the new Bo-
tanical Gardens, were formally ac-
cepted from Regent Frederick C.
Matthaei by University President
Harlan Hatcher June 14.
"The botanical world owes a
debt of gratitude to University of-
ficers, whose wise judgment led
them to the painful decision to
abandon an already developed,
though inadequate site, and to es-
tablish this new one," Prof. Wil-
liam C. Steere, Columbia Univer-
sity botanist and director of the
New York Botanical Gardens, said
at the dedication.
To expand operations, the gar-,
dens had been moved to a new
200-acre tract donated by Regent
Matthaei.
Already rich in native plantsI
the area offers a wide range of
conditions for the introduction of
plant collections of various types
while providing space for the field
plots necessary for experiment?-
tion in plant genetics and other
research.
Alden B. Dow, described by Pres-
ident Hatcher as having a "genius'
for wedding aichitectural struc-
tures to their sites," designed a'
complex of one-story laboratory-
classrooms, service, and green-
house structures. The central,
greenhouses provide experimental
and instructional plant materials
for University students and re-
searchers.
Prof. A. Geoffrey Norman, re-
cently appointed to the United
States Department of Agriculture's
Committee on Agricultural Sci-
ence, is the director of the Uni-
versity Botanical Gardens.
Prof. Steere commented that
"the leadership of a distinguished
director with broad interests and1
experience in the plant sciences"
will aid in the development of the
gardens.
He also said that the gardens
give the University "an unlimited

future as a national center of bo-

Prof. Norman agreed, saying
that the gardens have a "great po-
tential for growth, for change, and
for the enrichment that comes
with maturation. What you see
around you is only the beginning.
This is an open-ended project."

MSU Group
Levies Fines
In Speech Row
Ten members of the Michigan
State University chapter of the
Delta Sigma Phi fraternity have
been fined a total of $500 for per-
mitting a Communist to speak
from its back yard against the
orders of its local alumni group.
The alumni group also forced
the resignation of chapter presi-
dent Jim Eggert.
Ten $50 fines were levied against
house officers and executive board
members who had permitted Rob-
ert Thompson, a retired Commun-
ist party official, to speak May 23
on its property after MSU barred
him from speaking on its facilities.
Thompson, whose talk was
sponsored by the Young Socialist
Club, spoke before several hun-
dred students on "The Communist
Party: Its Aims, Philosophy and
Tactics."
Eggert said the fraternity voted
to permit Thompson to use its
back yard because it supported
freedom of expression.
A campus drive, spearheaded by
the Young Socialists, raised ap-
proximately $100 to aid the fra-
ternity officers in paying their
fine.

Hart Dedicates
Housing Units
For Elderl
One of the first housing projects
for the aged in the nation fi-
nanced with federal funds was
dedicated by Sen. Philip A. Hart
(D-Mich) in Ann Arbor June 19.
The LurieTerrace, located at W.
Huron and Chapin Sts., will be
completed by the end of 1963. The
$1.7 million project will contain
138 units.
The building was financed by
the Community Facilities Admin-
istration of the Housing and Home
Finance Agency. Rents will pay
for the 50-year, low-interestloan.
Housing Act
The project, one of four in
Michigan and 13 in the nation
that has gained governmental
funds under the Housing Act of
1961.
Washtenaw County residents,
who will be 62 or older upon com-
pletion of the building, can apply
for an apartment. Persons in the
lower middle retirement income
bracket are expected to be eligible
for occupancy.
The project is being managed
by Senior Citizens of Ann Arbor,
Inc., a corporate adjunct of the
Senior Citizens Guild to whom the
government loan was granted. The
Guild will supervise the manage-
ment of the project.
Full qualifications and apart-
ment building rent scale will be
announced, Mrs. Shata Ling, di-
rector of the project said.

Besides Hart, Seymour L. Wolf-
bein, assistant secretary of labor,
and Sidney Woolner, head of the
Community Facilities Administra-

cation.
A time capsule was placed on
the site during the dedication. The
capsule contains news media cov-
erage of the dedication and such
objects of contemporary life as
wonder drugs and other products
resulting from research.
A brorize plaque on the capsule
will request Michigan's governor
or 2062 to open it.
