After reporting on his recent trip to Hanoi, Egleson also mentioned suggested trips to both Hanoi and oe maimy eaucationai.

The wo- men had stated previously that they held "colonial relationship to menn" - against whom a fight for independence must be fought. One woman defended this position saying that, "it is not for the op- pressor to decide what the pos- ition of thee oppressed is." CBS filmed audience and speakers as the convention pro- ceeded with discussion on the Anti-Draft resolutions. A hotly debated amendment was proposed which stated that, "The SDS en- courages chapters and draft re- sistence unions to aid servicemen in disseminating information a- bout conscientious objection and the war in Vietnam. We will also aid them in opposition and dis- ruption within the Army as well as aid servicemen who wish to determinate their association with the Army by joining the under- ground." Debate was still con- tinuing at 1:00 a.m. this morn- ing. 'Midnight Session Brings 62-44 Vote Upper Chamber Convenes Today; Must Beat Fiscal Deadline Tonight By WALLACE IMMEN The state House of Representatives placed its approved version of Gov. George Romney's fiscal reform package before the Senate yesterday, but talks quickly bogged down. With the deadline closing in, early yesterday morning, the House had passed 62-44 a compromise tax package worked out in bi-partisan conference Wednesday. In a midnight session, twenty Democratic votes were finally corralled and the bill was passed with only a minor change from the terms drawn up in bipartisan caucus on Wednesday. The personal exemption had been raised by $200, to $1,200. The vote was delayed while sev- Cis By LUCY KENNEDY Student Government Council plans for the fall include a draft counseling service that will provide information on draft status and various ways to fulfill a military commitment as a conscientious ob- jector. SGC presdent, Bruce Kahn, '68, said the counseling service is plan- ned to "alleviate confusion and bring together all information on armed service opportunities." The counseling service would in- volve an office with one staff member available for consultation every day plus other counselors for., students. If a full volunteer staff cannot be arranged, operating ex- penses for the service will be paid from SGC's budget. Workshop Planned Several students have already volunteered to serve as counselors, and a workshop in the problem of draft deferment and conscientious objection is planned for early August. The workshop set up in conjunction with local Friend's Service Committee C h a i rm a n Ralph Kerman, will be conducted as a retreat. In addition to giving legal in- formation to conscientious object- ors, the service will deal with these people in a manner established by draft counseling services run by Friends and other religious groups elsewhere. In other counseling services, counselors have found it necessary to determine if someone is sin- cerely a conscientious objector by asking them questions such as "so you think you could never kill?" Avoid the Draft The service also hopes to pro- vide information on other ways to avoid being drafted for active duty in addition to conscientious objection. Some problems of student de-i ferment from the draft are pres- ently handled through the Univer- sity's office of certification. The main functions of this office, how- ever, are to give information upon student request to local draft boards on whether someone has student status or not. Larry Katz, an administrative assistant in the office of regis- tration and records, said, "We sometimes have students request- ing information oft various armed services but we generally refer them to people we consider more knowledgeable in the field such as recruiters. Our attitude toward students requesting information on conscientious objection is open. We'll show them any legal infor- mation we have, but this is on the fringe of our area-we don't consider it our main job." Katz commented that he was "all for" any service that could provide additional information on the draft, but that he was con- cerned about the ability of such on organization to keep their in- formation as up to date as the armed services themselves. -Daily-Thomas t. Copi A NEW DENTAL SC$OOL BUILDING, currently under construction, is scheduled for completion in 1970. A special committee within the school's faculty is drawing up new curriculum plans to be implemented when the new building is completed. Dental School Faculty Studies Newv Adaptable Curriculum C NEWS WIRE By The Associated Press MORE THAN 125 freshmen and transfer students will enter the University. this fall on Opportunity Award scholarships, ac- cording to John Chavis, coordinator for special projects in the Office of Academic Affairs. The awards cover fees and living costs for first-year students. In addition, students in extreme financial needs receive grants- in aid for continued study at the University. Assistance is also given to the students in finding part-time work during the school year and full-time employment in the summer. Beginning its fourth year, the Opportunity Awards program operates with the aid of high school principals, counselors and civil rights groups in seeking candidates with intellectual potential, but are unable to meet educational costs. The program is financed through University funds, private donations and a federal grant. *~ * THE SOCIOLOGY-PSYCHOLOGY Student Forum, a newly formed group of graduate students in the social sciences at the University, is planning a series of conferences and workshops to be held here Aug. 11-13. According to Glenn Harvey, conference coordinator, the object of the conference is "to provide fresh ideas on the improvement of graduate education in the U.S. and a critical assessment of social science endeavors generally, and to stimulate organization among graduate students for these pur- poses." Representatives from the University of Chicago, Harvard, Brandeis, the University of California at Berkeley and the Uni- versity of Wisconsin will also participate in the conference. By JILL CRABTREE "We want to create a curri- culum that well be more flex- ible, more adaptable to change, so that we can keep pace with new innovations in the sciences, and allow our students more freedom to do in-depth study in their chosen area, Robert E. Doerr, as- sociate dean of the dental school, said yesterday. He said that this is the working philosophy of a dental college fac- ulty committee which is presently revising the school's curriculum. Doerr says the new curriculum will take effect with the comple- tion of new facilities for the college under construction on North University Street.uComplet- ion is scheduled for the beginning of 1970. Clinical Practices Planned changes include an earlier introduction of students to clinical practices, increased emph- asis on diagnosis and preventive dental care, individualization of learning and increased free and elective time. This will be accomplished in part by providing students with the opportunity to utilize self- study devices . One of the most basic changes planned is a "verticalization" of studies in pre-clinical and clin- ical sciences. At present, students spend the first two years of the four-year dental curriculum lear- ning basic theory. They first be- gin caring for patients in their third year, when they learn clin- ical practices. Under the new curriculum, stu- dents will have their first con- tact with patients in their first year, and teaching of theory will continue until graduation. In addition, creation of a ninth semester between the third and fourth year of study will enable f , , i , , .; . { E i ''i free nours t. nt ins men u e wi have a chance to do original re- search, participate in field trips, perfect his clinical techniques, or elect liberal arts courses. The teaching of technical pro- cedures is also being revamped. Doerr said many clinical tech- niques are presently being taught as semester-long courses meeting one hour a week. He noted some students could learn these tech- niques in five hours time. Under the new curriculum, students will learn them individually, at their own pace. Self-Teaching Such individualized study will be implemented by 50 self-teach- ing units to be located in the basement of the new dental build- ing. The units will be 4x7 foot cub- computer terminal. A student practicing a technique in the car- rel will be monitored by the com- puter, and a teletype response sys- temin n the carrel will tell the student when he makes a mistake. "In the past," Doerr said, "we have had to gear our teaching of such techniques to the middle or average student. The quicker stu- dents grew bored, and the slower ones were constantly overchalleng- ed. With this individualized teach- ing method, the problem will be eliminated." According to Doerr, increased emphasis will be put on preven- tive dentistry under the new cur- riculum, with more instruction giv- en in diagnosis and periodontics. -the study of diseases of the bone and gums. the committee to provide a stu- isles containing a counter and a dent with more free and elective surface on which slides demon- time, Doerr said. strating a given technique can be In a 40-hour class week, each projected.

Passing the time, while re- stricted to the chamber, members made spot polls to see if the bill would be able to get the 56 votes necessary to pass. When all but five had returned, the session gave the bill imme- diate approval. The bill was sent to the Senate, which took it up in a special ses- sion yesterday evening, but ad- journed after an hour's fruitless. deliberation. If the Senate cannot accept the House terms, which vary some- what from the version they passed in May, the issue must be brought before a House-Senate Conference Committee to iron out the differ- ences. The bill must have final legis- lative approval by midnight to- night to head off the adoption of massive cuts in state services. *Romney warned again yesterdy that without a plan, the $1 billion budget the Senate has prepared must be slashed by $75 million. The deadline is midnight tonight and differences must be resolved before tomorrow evening. Meanwhile, the House calendar was cleared for consideration of the state budget. The House bill provide $269 mil- lion in new state revenues from a 2.6,per cent personal income tax with a $1,200 exemption and a 5.6 per cent corporate income tax. This,,compares with rates of 2.5 per cent with a $600 exemption and 5 per cent on corporate in- come in the Senate package. One provision of the plan ex- pected to have a rough trip is a three cent-a-pack tax on cigaret- tes. A 7 per -cent tax on deposits held by financial institutions must also be justified before the Senate. The bill followed an outline set up by a six-day caucus with Rom- House Urges Central Time for Michi gan LANSING - The House of Representatives yesterday passed a resolution urging the Federal' Department of Transportation to put all of Michigan in the Central Time Zone. The measure-was approved by a 58-37 vote and was sent to the Senate. The resolution contends that more than 90 per cent of Michi- gan geographically belongs in the Central Zone. It actually has no legal force, but if approved in the Senate, it would serve as a state- ment of intent to planners in Washington. "The Transportation Depart- ment would take a second look at a joint resolution from the Michigan Legislature," predicted Rep. Tom Sharpe, (R-HowelD, one of 31 sponsors of the resolu- tion. He said he believed the Senate would pass the resolution. "I've had 20,000 calls from mothers who can't get their children to 'bed before 10:30 at night," Sharpe said. "The sun sets later in Michigan than almost anywhere in the United States." Only two weeks ago the state went on Eastern Daylight Saving Time.

It is part of the Presi-, dent's war on poverty. The origin of the idea for the Corns has been attributed to sev- teachers qualified to teach in urban slums and poverty pockets. The site Johnson chose for sign- ing the bill was a large job train- ing center which sprang up in an area racked by Philadelphia's 1964 racial riots and became one of the most successful efforts of its kind in the nation. Congress had only completed action on the measure Wednes- AQV Another $7.5 million was ap- proved in October, barely enough to keep the Teacher Corps going through June, 1967. Since then Congress has ap- priated $3.8 million more to main- tain the present program and to start a few more projects, with only the authorization bill then remaining to be passed. It moved closer to renewal last a meeting with Senate leaders to make sure that this bill and other key legislation got to the floor before the recess. This was the latest in a long series of legisla- tive problems which the Teacher Corps faced. Many Congressmen view the Corps as another example of in- creasing federal control over edu- cation, particularly in the elemen- 44,.v and ..-nn.vI..IS Thp ad-
