As a reaction against the International Days of Protest
against government policy in Viet Nam, a conference of adminis-
tration supporters will be held on Oct. 16 in Washington, D.C.
The conference, "A Symposium for Freedom in Viet Nam," will
include a "top Republican -leader, a top Democratic leader, an
official of the State Department, five distinguished professors,
and myself" according to Arthur J. Collingsworth, '67, chairman
of the local Conference on Viet Nam Steering Committee. He also
said that "about 1500" students are expected to attend. No campus

Phil E. Spear, newly-elected chairman of the Ann Arbor
Board of Realtors, announced at a board meeting yesterday that
local realtors handled $24.9 million in home and commercial sales
for the first nine monthsof this year, 26 per cent more than for
the same period last year. Spear predicted that "with expansion
planned by the University," and by local merchants and firms,
"this sales trend can only continue upwards."

Stewart Gordon, '66, a member of the Student Advisory Com-
mittee on Housing, said yesterday that the group's first meeting
Wednesday night with Vice-President for Student Affairs Richard
L. Cutler and William L. Steude, director of student community
relations, had been generally satisfactory in establishing the
philosophy and procedures under which the group would function.
Gordon said that the committee's role would be to advise di-
rectly Cutler and Vice-President for Business and Finance Wilbur
K: Pierpont. In addition the group would have the power to
initiate action such as taking surveys and formulating long-range
plans.
Gordon had indicated earlier that the only area of some
dispute was the release by the committee of information that the
administration considered confidential but that this was not a
serious disagreement.,He added that the committee would publish
the proceedings of each week's meeting in The Daily.

An editor of the Berkeley Daily Californian said yesterday
that student opinion is running heavily ink favor of former tem-
porary assistant professor of German Eli Katz in his dispute with
the administration. ,Katz's'contract was not renewed after he
refused to comply with the administration by answering questions
about his political activities. He had prevously refused to- answer
questions before the House Un-American Activities Committee.,
Chancellor Roger W. Heyns of the University of California
recently refused to comment as to when he will reach a decision
on the rehiring of "activist" Katz. The American Civil Liberties
Union has threatened to take the case to court unless Heyns'
decision comes soon.

SGC Gets
Support for
Bookstore
11,000 Students
Sign Petitions
For Regents
By PETER SARASOHN
A strong wave of "support has
greeted the drive of Student Gov-
ernment Council to establish a
University bookstore Donald Res-
nick, '67, SGC member, said yes-
terday.
Resnick said that locally eleven
thousand students have already
signed the SGC petition request-
ing that the Regents establish the
bookstore and that signs of sup-
port for the store are coming
from the Office of Student Af-
fairs.
In addition, Resnick pointed out,
labor union representatives and
clergymen who attended "Know
Your University Day". Thursday,
have promised to send letters to
the Regents indicating their sup-
port for the bookstore.
Getting the Best
Resnick said " we can get the.
best in books and still not have to
pay the most. Wayne State Uni-
versity students get the same kind
of service but pay 10 per cent
less. Why not the University?"
"As savings of 10 per cent may
not seem that big to the student

Resnick met yesterday with Art
Martin, a store design consultant
with the Bulman Corporation, to
discuss the possible size and costs
for the proposed bookstore. Mar-
tin indicated a University book-
store would need 14,000 square
feet of selling area and 7,000
square feet for storage.
Estimates
His estimates were $45,000 for
fixtures or $3 per square foot.
Martin said that if a University
Bookstore offered a 10 per cent
discount "the Ann Arbor book-
stores would match it." An ad-
ministrative official agreed with
this prediction.
Committee member Mickey
Eisenberg, '67, said that the re-
maining signatures would come
mostly from petitions distributed
to fraternities, sororities and

are expected back around Oct. 15,
he said.

Ask Alteration of
Safety Measures,
Noise Regulations
By JUDY DETHLOFF
Members of the Student Driver
Regulations Board conferred for
the first time with Councilman
John Hathaway about the contro-

day.
The Driver Regulations Board.
consists of two members of Stu-
dent GovernmentCouncil,, one
person from Joint Judiciary Cou-
cil, one from Graduate Student
Council, an administrator from
the Office of Student Affairs, and
Vice-President for Student Affairs
Richard Cutler.
The Board made four major
recommendations concerning the
control of noise, safety measures,
cycle registration, anddriver edu-
cation. They compared with Hath-
away's ideas on cycle regulations
as follows:
" Although the Board supported
the regulation of excessive noise,
they pointed out that the loudest
cycles are those with modified
exhaust pipes.
According to Hathaway, the
problem of regulating cycles, es-
pecially at night, is complicated
by the difficulty in distinguishing
between a motorcycle and a motor
driven cycle. State law decrees
that motor driven cycles, which
have five horsepower or less, may
not be operated at night without
a special permit. Since actual
brake horsepower as measured by
the city, may be only 25 per cent
of that listed by the manufac-
turer, a realistic system of meas-
urement might discover many
more cycles under five horsepow-
er, according to Hathaway.
Hathaway also proposed to low-
er the decibel requirement in the
city's noise control ordinance.
This ordinance presently prohi-
bits the operation of a vehicle
creating more than 95 decibels of
sound. If Hathaway's proposal is
passed the requirement will drop
to 89.
* Safety should be handled
voluntarily by the students them-
selves according to the Board.
" Since the University registers
student cyclists, the Board claim-
ed that it should be unnecessary
for the these same students to
register again with the city.
On this subject, Hathaway not-
ed that although the University
and the city do operate similarly
with respect to cycle registration,
they differ in regard to their
methods of enforcing the rules
involved.
" The Board proposed the es-
tablishment, of a series of clinics
at which cycle driving and safety
would be taught. Instructors for
these clinics could include stu-

Special To The Daily
WASHINGTON - The moral
revolution was the topic of dis-
cussion during the closing ses-
sions yesterday of the American
Council on Education's annual
meeting here-and Sister Jacque-
line Grennan, president of Web-
ster College, emphatically .denied
several other college presidents'
"pedestrian"' moral outlooks.
Students must be consulted in
a constant dialogue so that the

standards of the older generation
are not forced on to the younger
generation, she said. Standards to
fit a changing society must be dis-
covered together with students, on
a "two-way street."
Kingman Brewster, president of
Yale University, talked of what
observers term "more sophisticat-
ed approaches to the moral and
ethical problems of students in
today's society." He called on edu-
cation leaders to lead "the struggle
for a system of values which will
renew purpose" in the nation.

Educators, he said, "have

responsibility, not to let the sword
of our own conviction fall to the
ground, not to become faceless
men, incapable of expressing pei'-"
sonal conscientious conviction."
Brewster scorned what Daily
reporters call administrativese
language, Land called on the dele-
gates to 'stem the tendencies to
moral disengagement." He de-
manded moral goals in the college
and university environment.
"To cultivate a weasel-worded
tolerance in the name of objec-
tivity is to fail the duty as pre-
ceptor to set an example of moral
and intellectual courage. It could
only confirm the allegation that
ours is an apparatus of means
without ends."
Liberal Education
Such "boldness and innovation"
he termed the true power of a
liberal education.
Clark Kerr, president of the
University of California, empha-
sized in an interview for the Daily
yesterday the rapid expansion of
the university through the addi-
tion of new, varied campuses and
predicted that there wouldn't be
"another Berkeley" this fall.
He cited several factors in his
assessment of the Berkeley situa-
tion. Referring to a "very unwise
edict issued last fall to restrict
political activity" he said "The
new Chancellor, Rober Heyns,
won't make a mistake like that."
New Attitude

against the Viet Nam war, Kerr
said the organized groups were
not getting the support they had
expected.
Participants in the ACE session
on "Higher Education and the
Moral Revolution" seemed to split
over viewing students as "those
kids" or, as Sister Grennan put it,
"our junior colleagues.
Many observers felt that Brew-
ster didn't "get through" to the
delegates in his luncheon speech.
"You can't theorize about 'moral
disengagement' with this group,"
one person said.
Criticisms
Other criticisms centered on the
"low level of representation" at
the conference and on the state
of higher education leadership in
the country. Few of the delegates
were from schools generally con-
sidered among the top 40, though
these were fairly well represented
among the speakers and panelists.:
"I could count the real leaders
in higher education on the fin-
gers of one hand," one delegate
said.
While the conference was de-
voted to the student, there was no
evidence of student planning aid,
and only scattered panel partici-
pation.
While Brewster tried to arouse
interest in moral leadership from
presidents and administrators,
Sister Grennan sought to join
with the students in such leader-

After several years of indeci-
sion, delay and political haggling,
the path finally seems clear for
development of a four-year state-
supported college in the Sgginaw
Valley area.

bill in July creating Saginaw Bay
State College and, with the pos-
sibility of a dispute over site
selection eliminated according to
informed sources, the school will

The University branch plan,
however, later became involved in
a political hassle during which
several alternative p r o p o s a l s
emerged.
The State Board of Education
then decided to provide the Sagi-
naw area with a four-year college
sequence for students by support-
ing the establishment of a two-
year" private senior college to
which graduates from Delta Jun-
ior College would have ready ac-

The report, released in March,
1965, reported the tremendous
need for expanded educational fa-
cilities in the state.
EnrollmentIncrease
It predicted that undergraduate
enrollment in Michigan will in-
crease 49 per cent by 1975.-
The committee noted that four
of Michigan's metropolitan areas
lacked a state-supported four-year
college. Bay City and Saginaw
were ~ a ing h mnta D i nnn~d

sentatives to establish Saginaw
Bay State College. Rep. .J. Rob-
ert Traxler (D-Saginaw) added
an amendment to the bill, stip-
ulating that the Legislature must
approve the site for the school.
Intention
"The intention of my amend-
ment is merely to insure that pri-
vate interests in the Saginaw Val-
ley area don't locate the school on
a site not easily accessible to
either Bay City, Saginaw or Mid-

grounds of Delta College.
William Groening, head of a pri-
vate fund raising group for Sagi-
naw Bay State College, stated that
the Delta College area would be
unacceptable to his group. He said
that he would feel obliged to con-
sult with donors who had con-
tributed money with another site
in mind before making the group's
funds available for the college.
