EDUCATION BOARD: Four State Colleges Hike Tuition F 'all SGC Meetings U.S. Voids Travel Ban, On Russians By The Associated Press WASHINGTON - The United States lifted its travel restrictions against Russian visitors yesterday and invited the Soviet Union to do likewise for its American guests. President John F. Kennedy or- dered the one-sided move as 'a do - by - example effort toward "betterment of relations" be- tween the two countries. The action, effective immediate- ly, and conveyed by note to Soviet. Ambassador Anatoly F. Dobrynin, removed bars against travel by Soviet exchange visitors and tour- ists to the one-fourth of the United States which has been off limits to Russians, although nor- mal security measures around de- fense installations remain. Decision Stays Officials said the new decision would hold regardless of whether or not Moscow follows suit. Not affected by the new order are the approximately 400 Soviet diplomats and newsmen who re- side in this country. They are still banned from the off limits areas, in reprisal for the travel restric- tions imposed against United States diplomats and newsmen in Russia. Also not affected by the new move are Russian students attend- ing the University. Permission Needed International Center director James M. Davis said that Russian students are still expected to ob- tain special permission from the State Department through their counselors whenever they are traveling beyond a radius of 25 miles from the campus. There were two Russian stu- dents on campus last year, and one or more is expected this fall. In actual practice, Russians coming to this country under the exchange program have been ad- mitted to off-limit cities when there was sufficient demand on the American side.

All fraternities turned in their statements by the June 23 deadline and have been accepted as adequate. The seven sororities in violation are: Alpha Epsilon Phi, Kappa Delta, Phi Mu, Gamma Phi Beta, Delta Delta Delta, Delta Sigma Theta and Sigma Kappa. Legal Advice Under terms of a Council procedure adopted at the May 23 meeting, Stockmeyer will confer this summer with Prof. Robert Harris of the Lawt, School, SGC's legal counsel, to set up a hearing procedure and calendar. "I was of the opinion May 23' and still am that hearings could begin the third regular meeting of the fall semester," Stockmeyer declared. He surmised that most of the seven sororities failed to file ade- quate statements because of oppo- sition from their national organi- zations who do not want students: to deal with membership issues. Earlier Deadlines Stockmeyer had announced that the first four were in violation at SGC's last meeting of the spring semester, May 23. The filing dead- line for the latter three fell due May 25.j Under the SGC membership se- lection regulations, fraternities and ANN McMILLAN sororitieq were required to file cop- ies of their membership clauses and other relevant data of their constitutions to the Office of Stu- IR A C V iew s dent Affairs.

The selection has been post- poned until 1963-64. University Executive Vice-Presi- dent Marvin L. Niehuss said it was difficult to attract well-placed people for visiting professorships. He also commented that a visiting professor cannot "score every time." Democrats, viewed the appropria- tion as an attmpt to "bulldoze" the group into approving a tuition hike. Bartlett may soon take part in another important decision affect- ing higher education in Michigan. New Colleges The Oakland County Board of Education next week is expected to1 approve a recommendation to put' a one-mill property tax on the ballot in November to finance a network of community colleges in the county. Bartlett has to approve the pro- posal, which would need 6,500 sig- natures from county voters. Sites near Pontiac and Troy are con- sidered the most likely areas for new building.

The group suggested that the subsidy paid by the college for housing and eating costs be eliminated, although the 15 fraternities would be allowed to function if they were able. The committee said that fraternities were exercising "a dis- proportionate role" in undergraduate life, and that this "all-encom- '>passing . . influence tends to in- terfere with thetbroader, morein- clusive ends of the college itself."

Riots Quelled The government radio reported, meanwhile, that renewed food riots had broken out in the su- burb of Duque de Caxias, about 20 miles from here. At least 171 persons were killed there and in two nearby towns in food rioting Thursday. The latest rioting was reported minor and quickly quel- led. Food shortages, the result of Brazil's inflation, plus a general strike in support of President Joao Goulart sparked the rioting. Political Battle The struggle centered aroundj Goulart and dominant conserva- tive parties in Congress deter- mined to put forth one of their number as prime minister. Sen.

Faulkner died of a heart attack yesterday at his home in Oxford, Miss. He was 64 years old.) By JOHN HERRICK At 2 p.m. yesterday, a county died with its creator. The county was Yoknapataw- pha county and the man, Wil- liam Faulkner, who created it and peopled it with original Sartoris,' the Snopes' and the Compgons. The history of this county is now forever in the imagination of the many readers of William Faulkner. In Faulkner's own words he was never a writer, just too damn lazy to work. The reason this man, one of the greatest writers in the world yesterday, maintained he wasn't a writer, is that he just wrote for fun. THE DEATH of this man and this county has, or will stun a nation. President John F. Kennedy said that Faulkner dead "is in the heart of the set- elder statesman of American literature. The two major figures of contemporary American fiction are now dead, Hemingway last year and now Faulkner. A generation of American fiction is over and now a new and different one will have to be built. The authors of "For Whom the Bell Tolls" and "The Sound and the Fury" have died and will-must-be replaced from the ranks of those who have written works like "The Naked and the Dead" and "Catch 22" and "Clock Without Hands." * * * WHO WAS this man who wrote with such beautiful "sound and fury," signifying a whole world full of life, through the universality of one small and fictional county in Mississippi? He was 64 years old when he died yesterday of a heart attack. He was a shy and self- deprecating little man with close cropped gray hair and a small moustache and large sense of humor and life. This man who turned out some of the best and some of the most difficult fiction of our time spent much of his life in the home of his family in Ox- ford, Miss., living in the Civil War house of his grandfather. He was once a newspaper writer and bohemian in New Orleans. In his home town he was known as "Count No Count" because he was "just too damn lazy to work." * * * HIS FIRST published book was a collection of poems called "The Marble Faun." While he was in New Orleans he knew .hpwn dA A nrAon. whn en- 1 1 E } 1j Y NATIONAL NEWS ROUNDUP: Group. To Inves tigate Pressures on Senate By The Associated Press WASHINGTON-A year-long, far-ranging inquiry into how far lobbyists hired by foreign governments go to influence United States policy and get more foreign aid or sugar quotas was voted yesterday by the Senate Foreign Relations Committee. Chairman J. William Fulbright (D-Ark) said the investigation-starting in a few days- would be far broader than one being undertaken by a Senate judiciary subcommittee into efforts by high- ly paid foreign agents to influ- ence this year's sugar legislation.

However, no definite action has 1 been taken, Francis S. Van Debur, head of the Interfraternity Re- search Advisory Council,the study group, said last night. "So far the group has taken hardly any position. Its position has not crystalized, just as the thinking of the University has not crystalized," he declared. Alternatives t He pointed out that a number of steps could be taken. IRAC could act collectively or any one or combination of the component national organizations could talk to the Regents, Van Debur ex- plained. However, IRAC does not meet during the summer and will not meet again until late this year, he noted. Van Debur said that a special meeting was unlikely. Panhellenic Association Presi- dent Ann McMillan, '63, said that any action IRAC takes it out of the local Panhel's hands and that it would go to University Presi- dent Harlan Hatcher and the Regents. Hopes for Change She expressed hope that some of the nationals will change their position when they see the threat to their sororities. Miss McMillan explained that national sorority representatives, meeting at a Pan- hel convention in Chicago during spring vacation, had informally agreed it would be unwise to recognize the authority of student courageaous a n d everything e 1 s e Faulrne,. hliurd h I i !
