The colorful three-way race has been dominated by the- efforts of Conservative candidate William F. Buckley Jr., 39, to draw votes away from John V. Lindsay, the attractive 43-year-old candidate See related story on Page 3 of the Republican and Libel al parties. Buckley contends that Lindsay has been disloyal to the Republican party by refusing to support GOP Presidential candi- date Barry Goldwater last year and by accepting the support of the New York state Liberal party, a small offshoot of the Democratic party which runs its own can- didates in some city and state contests while usually supporting Democratic candidates in others. Buckley, editor of the right- wing magazine National Review, and intellectual spokesman of the conservative movement has con- ducted a campaign highlighted by acidly witty onslaughts against both Lindsay and Democratic can- didate Abraham Beame, 59, city comptroller under outgoing Demo- cratic Mayor Robert F. Wagner. Lindsay's campaign has centered upon a series of white papers detailing his plans for dealing with the city's worst problems, which include deteriorating hous- ing, lack of water, air pollution, congested and antiquated public transportation, a soaring crime! rate, high sales taxes, worsening1 Negro and Puerto Rican ghettoes,i overcrowded, unequipped hospitals; and fiscal confusion. He has also attacked Buckley for allegedly appealing to racist,r "Nazi-like" sentiments. Buckley has advocated that some of thet city's poor residents who are on relief should be moved out of theI city to "rehabilitation camps." Het also has advocated quarantining drug addicts "outside the city, perhaps on one of the largish is-1 lands." 1 Lindsay has attacked Beame for his acceptance of support from Democratic party bosses such as Charles Buckley of the Bronx,I Stanley Steingut of Brooklyn, and Harlem's Congressman A d a mc Clayton Powell.< Beame has conducted his cam-' paign on the premise that he is the only candidate with the neces- sary experience to lead the mu- nicipal government. He has also appealed to party loyalty and has claimed that, if he is elected, he wil be able to use his influence to gain additional federal funds for the city under the war on poverty program. Beame received the endorsement. of President Johnson last Friday after a period of uncertainty as to whether the President would openly support him. The New York Times, Herald-' Tribune, Post and World-Telegram have published strong editorials supporting Lindsay, while the two remaining papers are supporting Beame. Lindsay has also gained the support of a wide variety of liberal groups throughout the city who have admired his congres- sional voting record. Polls indicate that the race will be extremely close with the vic- tor obtaining a plurality no larger than 50,000 votes and perhaps as small as 15,000 out of an expected to whether Beame or Lindsay will will be interpreted as a victory' win in a photo finish. for the ultra-conservative GOP With the Democrats capitalizing forces represented by Buckley.

But Republicans across the nation are watching the election for indications of the party's future direction. A strong showing by Buckley and a loss for Lindsay would greatly strengthen the GOP's ultra-conservative wing and help compensate for Gold- water's shattering defeat one year ago. New York City voters, however, are more concerned with the qual- ity of city government each can- didate would provide. Lindsay has proposed more seemingly practical programs than either Beame or Buckley. Thus, it is possible that the voters will throw tradition and party allegiance to the wind and enable Lindsay to emerge victorious, although only by a few thousand votes. vote of 2.5 million.

Steinheimer Jr., of the Law School, an admis- sions officer of that school, has returned from a two week trip South to investigate the possibilities of recruiting Negro students to study law at the University. Last night he spoke to the board of directors of the Law School about his trip. His trip is the first definitive step by the Law School, which had been thinking of it for several years, ,in their desire to establish a "continuous program" in which these schools would encourage Negro students to come to the University to study law. He said they do not know how many students will be enter- ing and that only four or five students from each of the five schools he visited were interested. He explained that the op- portunities for Negroes in business is increasing down South and that "coming here has not as much appeal as one might hope." Although the outlook is discouraging, he said "over the longer pull the possibility is still there," and once Negro students started coming here, feedback woud enhance the appeal here. Councilman Richard E. Balzhiser asked at last night's council meeting that a report be given the council by the Policej Department on the use of narcotics on the campus. Balzhiser re- ferred in his statement to an article in the Daily on the use of marijuana on the campus. He said that upon a first reading of the article he questioned its authenticity and believed it to be based on hearsay, but "after talking to a few people, I feel its allegations may well be substantiated," he said. Mayor Wendell E. Hulcher strongly refuted a statement by George F. Lemble of the Citizen's Committee On Housing, last night, which contended that Hulcher was considering two known opponents of the newly-established housing commission for appointment to that body. Lemble spoke before the council last night and said that Hulcher was considering former Mayor Cecil O. Creal and former Mayor Pro Tempore Bent F. Nielson for positions on the five- man commission. Hulcher said that he would announce his appointments at next Monday's council meeting. >x * The Veterans of Ann Arbor and W'ashtenaw County were granted a permit by city council last night to hold a parade in honor of the veterans in this area and "in retaliation for the anti-Viet Nam demonstrators that we have had to disgustingly observe," according to their statement. The parade, the first in this area supporting U.S. policy, will be held Thursday, Nov. 11. The Veterans of New York sponsored a similar parade in New York City last Sunday in which 20,000 people took part.

Pamphlet- eering, mailing literature, and REACH To Use Program Of Research To Solicit Interest, Participation From. Many Student Groups By DICK WINGFIELD In an open organizational meet- ing Sunday night, Reach student organization announced its four candidates for Student Govern- ment Council, revealed its cam- paign headquarters and outlined its platform for the election. Reach candidates are: Neill Hol- lingshead, '67, presently personnel director for SGC; Alex Goodwin, '67, presently public relations di- rector for SGC; Pat McCarty, '67, general co-chairman for Winter Weekend 1966; and Robert Smith, '67, presently serving on the cen- tral committee'of Winter Week- end 1966. Campaign Headquarters The Reach campaign headquar- ters are located at 1123 S. Uni- versity, in the front half of the Dugout Restaurant. A "gripe line" to the headquarters will be main- tained during the campaign per- iod at NO 3-4247. Students are encouraged to use the line for in- formation, comments and criti- cisms. In addition to the "gripe line," another phone will be in use at the headquarters to survey stu- dents at random in effort to deter- mine student ideas and opinions concerning student government. The structure of Reach, as de- fined in The Daily, Tuesday, Oct. 26, consists of three main divi- sions: research, public relations and campaigning. Platform The platform of Reach is direct- ed at soliciting interest and par- ticipation in the work of SGC fromr diverse student interest groups. They hope to implement this goal through their research and public relations bureaus, by having graduate students as well as undergraduates work in the an- alysis of problems and by contact- ing large numbers of students for ideas and opinions on student needs. tSpecific platform policies for v NANCY DAY Sunday at the Michigan Union, termed President Johnson "the most effective liberal President we've had since Franklin Roose- velt" in a general statement prais- ing the government's domestic policy.
