Swainson had called upon some 2,000 citizens to march on the Capitol yesterday and demand further increases in state spending; it "fizzled." House Majority floor leader, Allison Green (R-Kingston), drew applause for his quip that "I happened to glance out the window and notice that throng listening to the Governor. There were a handful of people (most of them campaigning for Romney)," and equal num- House Votes In Capital Outlay, But Dela s on Bill To Close Psychiatric Center Here Special To The Daily LANSING - The House las night voted 51-45.to close down the Veterans' Readjustment Center in Ann Arbor and ordered the action within 60 days. The bill now goes into the Sen- ate-House Conference Committe as a part of the $78.5 million ap- propriation for mental health which the House passed yesterday 98-5. Rep. Gilbert Bursley (R-Ann Arbor) pleaded in vain to continue the facility, saying, "don't just de- stroy something because there seems to be a conflict in the facts Let's keep it going temporarily, at least and investigate the situa- tipn." But Reps. William Copeland (D- Wyandotte) and Harry Phillips (R-Port Huron) stood on Cope- land's investigation report which described the Center as "just not doing the job it should be for the amount of money being expended.' The operations of the Center will be relocated to Veterans' Hospital in Grand Rapids, which Bursley deplored as "nothing but an 'old soldiers' home. The Ann Arbor unit is. a long standing and accepted need. It is a good institution, pro- viding necessary and specialized psychiatric treatment." He suggested it be continued on a $200,000 appropriation, taking private, paying patients to make up the balance of its needs. The House did not agree. Seek To Make School Prayers Constitutional WASHINGTON (/)-Amidst an avalanche of bitter criticism of the Supreme Court, members of Congress proposed yesterday that the Constitution be changed to knock down the tribunal's ban on prayers in public schools. First to introduce a constitu- tional, amendment to p e r m It schoolroom praying was Rep. Roy A. Taylor (D-NC), a Baptist dea- con who lists Evangelist Billy Gra- ham among his constituents. A short time later a similar measure was introduced in the Senate by Sens. John Stennis (D- Miss) and A. Willis Robertson (D- Va). Others said they planned to of- fer such proposals. But doubts that a constitutional amendment would get far were ex- pressed by Senate Republican Leader Everett M. Dirksen of Illi- nois. He told newsmen: "The proposition of separation of church and state is so ingrained into our people that I doubt that such an amendment would be adopted. Perhaps there can be some voluntary agreement worked out locally by which prayers could be said in the schools." French Push Algerian Peace ORAN, Algeria (MP)-French gov- ernment officials worked tireless- ly yesterday to negotiate peace be- tween the Secret Army Organiza- tion terrorists and Moslem nation- alists at Oran, the last major trou- ble spot in Algeria.. Officials at the nearby Algerian administrative capital, Rochee Noir,: expressed optimism that a deal could be worked out and de- struction halted in the west Al- 4ber of grade school children, sev- eral birds and a flock of mosqui- toes." MSU Controversy Legislators meanwhile were in- side fuming over the controversy between the Senate and Michigan State University President John A. Hannah over MSU's Labor and In- dustrial Relations Center. An investigating committee, head- ted by Sen. Lynn Francis (R-Mid- land) last month persuaded the Senate to amend MSU'subudget to close the center, alleging it has a pro-labor bias. Yesterday Hannah fought back. He called upon the House to strike out the amendment when it con- siders the higher education budget today. Defends Center MSU "feels that the Labor and Industrial Relations Center is ren- dering important and valuable . services to labor and industry," he said, and he called the move an attempt by the Legislature to reg- ulate academic affairs. Francis charged collusion be- tween the Center and MSU Trustee . John Stevens of Detroit, state edu- cation director for the AFL-CIO, in the production of a film that "portrays labor leaders as serious, hard-working men, devoted to their state and to objectives of their organization, and business- men as idlers who would prefer to i talk about unions .over a cocktail, rather than in their office." He called it "university-sanc- tioned propaganda," and called for 1 the closing of the Center in favor of economy. It is unneeded, he said, since the University and Wayne State University operate a similar unit. House leaders indicated they would be vigorous over the mat- ter, but they doubted the amend- ment would be overridden. Charges Bias Francis' charge that the center is overbalanced in favor of labor has drawn comments from MSU officials and other leaders in in- dustrial relations education. Charles C. Killingsworth, orig- inal director of the Center, said part of the imbalance problem was created in 1956 when the business college objected to the Center's program for business management. MSU trustees have an impressive string of Supreme Court decisions to back Hannah's case against leg- islative interference in academic affairs, but lawmakers have the ultimate weapon through their control of financial appropriations e to universities. Hannah pleaded "When political bodies begin to interfere, universi- ties often cease to perform their duty of seeking the truth, regard- less of its popularity. U.S. Warns Red Chinese About Attack WASHINGTON (M)-The United States was reported yesterday to have warned Red China it will de- fend Nationalist China's Formosa against Communist attack. But it also reportedly made it clear this country won't support a Nationalist invasion a t t e m p t against the China mainland. Diplomatic sources said the United States position was convey- ed to Red China in a meeting Sat- urday at Warsaw between United States Ambassador John Moors Cabot and the Chinese Communist ambassador to Poland, Wang Ping- Nan. The State Department had no comment on the report. According to the informants the Red ambassador declared that Chiang Kai-Shek, president of the Nationalist government on Formo- sa, was preparing to invade the mainland. The United States, as of today, is inclined to believe that a new military buildup by Red China is defensive in nature. ''resumes Construction After Strike Construction of the Physics- Astronomy Bldg. was resumed Thursday when a settlement was reached with striking companies. The International Association of Bridge, Structural and Ornamental Iron Workers of Detroit reached a settlement of about a 37 cents per hour increase in wages and fringe benefits June 19. Work on the 10-story portion of the building could not continue after April 30 since the reinforcing steel, which is handled by the un- ion, must precede all other con- struction. The Lathers' Union had struck concurrently with the iron work- ers' dispute, halting construction of the lecture hall and library por- tion of the building. The end of both the lathers' dis- pute and also the previous brick- layer and mason jurisdictional un- ion dispute makes possible the completion of the lecture hall and library by the fall semester.- The loss of 35 working days during the ideal spring months will push the completion date of the 10-story portion past the Feb- ruary deadline and into the 1963 spring semester. This delay will not increase the cost of the build- ing to the University. By KATHLEEN MOORE The lights (there's no curtain) will rise at 8 p.m. today in True- blood Aud. on an "experimental" musical. "The Boys from Syracuse," a Rodgers, Hart and George Abbott creation, is a fast-paced, song- filled comedy set in ancient Greece -a fairly straightforward produc- tion. But the University Players' pres- entation, under the directic. of Prof. William P Halstead of the speech department, will be filled with theatrical experiments. Presents Problems The necessity of producing "The Boys from.Syracuse" in Trueblood, Aud. at first seemed to present some special problems, but now Prof. Halstead says "I sometimes wonder how I ever directed a musical on a flat floor." (Lydia Mendelssohn Theatre is closed for "refurbishing" this sum- mer.)} Trueblood has a semi-Elizabeth-I an stage: a central acting area with steps leading down to a wide apron arcing around the stage proper. With the frequent dance numbers and chase scenes in the show, the two levels seemed to present a problem, Prof. Halstead commented. But "we're extremely pleased with the opportunities which the stairs gave," allowing Elizabethf Well, choreographer, a great dealt more freedom in placing the actors and dancers, he explained.- Use Turntable "The Boys from Syracuse" will also mark the first time the me-1 chanical turntable will be used as "an integral part of the action."

T Of these students, 10,657 are in residence on the campus, and 1 2360 outside Ann Arbor. Com-c parable figures for last summerk were 10,295 and 2234.

New Device The broom-trap, constructed of two strips of broom straw that meet in the center, allows actors to suddenly appear on stage or be swallowed up by the wall when they walk through it. This nightmare ballet comes near the climax of the musical, when the sorcerer begins to think he's seeing double. The plot con- cerns "the confusion of identity between two pairs of twins, the Antipholi and their sevrants, the Dromios."

Katanga President Moise Tshombe and Congo Premier Cyrille Adoula parted in discord after a night of futile bargaining. * * * * VIENTIANE (IP)-Rightist-leftist discord showed up openly yester- day in the coalition government BASEBALL CHAMPIONS: Michigan Wins World Crown special To The Daily HONOLULU - Michigan's red- hot baseball team added the In- ternational Collegiate World Se- ries title to their NCAA title here Monday night with a 2-1 defeat of Hosei University of Japan in the final game of a best-of-five series. Junior left-hander Fritz Fisher, who had shut out Hosei in the first game of the series, returned to the mound for another nine-inning stint, and permitted the Japanese only two hits. The only blotch on his record came in the first inning when he walked in the Hosei run.

UNITED NATIONS ) - The United Nations Trusteeship Com- mittee last night approved without a dissenting vote an African-Asian resolution recommending indepen- dence July 1 for the Belgian trust territory of Ruanda-Urundi in Af- rica. Two nations, the Republic of Ruanda and the Kingdom of Bur- undi, are to be created out of the territory bordering the Congo. They have rejected political un- ion but have agreed to economic cooperation. WASHINGTON A)-The United States disclosed yesterday it may explode a few small nuclear de- vices slightly above or below the surface of the Nevada desert to available. Paul Miller orchestrated the whole show and gathered an orchestra small enough to fit in the inner above. Putting the orchestra on stage, on a platform above the actors, is another experiment. Prof. Hal- stead decided to try it because it resembles the Elizabethan ,iiu- sician's gallery, and would crease a rather different blend of voices and orchestra. Extend Ban OnAir Strife NEW YORK UP) - A federal judge, in a compromise move, yes- terday extended for 10 days a ban against' flight engineers striking Pan American World Airways. The original restraint was laid down- last Saturday on a tempor- ary basis. The order signed in Brooklyn Federal Court by Judge George Rosling had no effect on the en- gineers' strike against Eastern Airlines, now in its fourth day. Daniel Kornblum, attorney for the Flight Engineers Union, said he will appeal Rosling's extension in an effort to clear the way for a renewed walkout of Pan Ameri- can's 500 engineers. They struck for three hours Saturday before the original restraining order sent them back to work. The issue in the engineers' dead- lock with both Pan American and Eastern is the elimination of one crew position in jet airliners. Crews now number four and the engineers union wants the third cockpit seat for its members when the cutback is made. Receive Grant For Program The Center for the Study of Higher Education has received a $360,000 grant from the Carnegie Corporation to further its efforts in training administrators and educators at the college level. The grant, a five-year outlay, is an extension of a similar sum pre- viously given by the corporation. $750,000. Physics and Astronomy Bldg. (partial payment), $2 mil- lion. Music Bldg. (total cost not to exceed $3.6 million), $750,000. The Republican majority in the House beat back numerous Demo- cratic amendments, which would have added funds for various pro- jects. None of the proposed amend- ments concerned the University, however. Exceed Request The House also approved $2.45 million in mental health operating funds for the University's Child's Psychiatric Hospital. This is $200,- 000 more than was originally ask- ed by Sen. Appropriations Com- mittee Chairman Elmer R. Porter (R-Blissfield). The capital outlay bill as passed also will provide some $6.5 mil- lion for other higher education construction, as follows: Michigan State University, $1.6 million for completion of the Mechanical Engineering Bldg. and to begin work on a chemistry building. Other Schools MSU-Oakland, $85,000 to re- model libraries and plan a new classroom building. Wayne State University, $1.3 million to continue work on its pharmacy building, a medical re- search building and a physics building. Western Michigan University, Kalamazoo, $75,000 to remodel its old natural science building and $478,000 to continue the new one. Northern Michigan College of Marquette, $1 million for class- room construction. Grand Valley Grand Valley College at Grand Rapids, $930,638 for completion. Ferries Institute at Big Rapids, $1 million for a physical education building and utilities. Michigan College of Mining and Technology at Houghton, $1.85 million for a mathematics and physics building, and classroom construction at Sault Ste. Marie. Central Michigan University at Mt. Pleasant, $950,000 for a science building.-. Eastern Michigan University, $750,000 for physical education building. Earlier Action The bill earlier passed the Sen- ate 23-4. It now goes into joint House-Senate Conference to re- solve differences. In other action, the House also approved $14.3 million for public health, $17.7 million for fiscal correction and $500,000 for avia- tion. In a marathon eight and a half hour session yesterday, the House literally fought its way through five major appropriation bills. Democrats offered amendment aft- er amendment taking a long time for debate on each section. However, they were never able to muster the necessary 56 votes to pass any of their measures. De- bate on the mental health appro- priation, which took better than two hours, worked members on both sides of the aisle into such a frenzy that Speaker of the House Don R. Pears (R-Buchanan) was unable to restore sufficient order so that the House could proceed with dehte on the higher educa- PROF. JAMES K. POLLOCK ... on con-con Begin Talks On Con-con, By MARK BLUCHER "The securing of a constitutional- convention in Michigan has been a long, slow process," Prof. James K. Pollock of the political science department said yesterday. Prof. Pollock spoke on the back- ground of Michigan's 1962 con- stitutional convention in the first of a series of six lectures to be given on Con-Con. "A state constitutional conven- tion is a very unique and unusual institution. It arises directly out of the electorate and is required to return its product to them. ,or their ratification." Traces History Michigan's first constitution was regarded by many as the best for the later documents of 1850 and 1908 "got away from the clear and simple principles of the 1835 con- stitution," Prof. Pollock said. "People voting in an election don't vote on issues," he continued, and for this reason attempts, after 1908, to call a convention all ended in defeat. However, at each attempt the popular vote in favor of calling a convention increased until the issue was passed in 1960. Michigan Fortunate "Michigan is fortunate to have called a convention into session at this time . . . for it will bring the machinery of government in ac- cord with the times," he said. However, he admonished the people to view state constitutions "as instruments to be worked,. . not instruments to be worshipped." "We are all aware of the mag- nitude and importance of con-con, and in future lectures this gather- ing will be analyzed in its more significant aspects," he concluded.
