A temporary injunction would have prohibited the State Labor Mediation Board from consider- ing the petitions of unions which seek recognition as the collective bargaining agent for. University employes. The board will consider these petitions at a hearing Feb. 15.

University officials commented yesterday that the judge's ruling would not influence a later hear- ing on the constitutionality of Public Act 379. Public Act 379 which was pass- ed this summer is an amendment to Michigan's basic labor legisla- tion, the Hutchinson Act.

Of particular interest is the eligibility policy, which limits admission to those : -Who qualify as family (as defined by the lengthy criteria terms); -Whose net income after allowable exemptions and assets does not exceed $2,600 for a single person, $4,400 for two persons, $5,300 for a five-person family, and $6,600 for a family of 10 or more; -Who have been Ann Arbor residents for at least' a year; -Who have been, or are about to be displaced from adequate housing through no fault of their own. The proposal by the Harvard Undergraduate Council for an exchange program with several other schools, including the University, appears to be seriously blocked by the opposition of the Harvard administration, according to Henry Sondheimer, chairman of the committee investigating the exchange proposal. In an interview yesterday, Sondheimer said that the HUC is preparing a report to the faculty on the suggestion of a recip- rocal exchange of students for a semester between universities of different size, location and nature. He said that in talks with Dean Munro of Harvard College and Nathan Pusey, president of Harvard, it was learned that the administration was opposed to the idea. Sondheimer felt that the suggestion would likely have trouble overcoming the opposition of the faculty, despite the support of such professors as David Riesman. Sondheimer expects the report to be considered by the faculty sometime in March. Two ex-Marineswere acquitted Thursday night on acharge a of assault and battery on an anti-Viet Nam war picket who refused to lower his sign while the American flag was passing. The incident occurred October 16, when the two veterans allegedly assaulted a picketing University student during the University's Homecoming Parade. The jury deliberated two hours and 35 minutes , before re- turning the not guilty verdict which ended the all-day trial. The City Council-created Sesquicentennial Commission is seeking donations from business, industry and private individuals to help the University celebrate its 150th birthday next year. A minimum of $45,800 in donated funds is needed. In addition to donations, the commission was allocated $7,500 by the council, bringing the total budget to $53,300. The University expects to raise at least $55 million by the Sesquicentennial to be used in establishing new educational facilities which will be locally beneficial. Plans for the 1966 Winter Weekend "Operation M-Trigue" are well under way, according to General Co-Chairmen Pat McCarty, '67, and Tom Sherman, '66. The first event scheduled in the secret scheme of events is a treasure hunt, to be held on Friday morning, Feb. 25. The highlight of that evening will be the program of skits, each built around a general spy theme,, and presented by five sorority-fraternity or dorm combinations. Preliminary judging will be held on Jan. 24 and 25 to select the five skits which will be performed. On Saturday, Feb. 26, a variety of booths will be open in the IM Building, featuring different skills and entertainment. Johnny Rivers is tentatively scheduled to appear at a dance ifk in the building on Saturday night, probably with several other bands, but there will be no concert as originally intended. Trophies will be awarded for the best booths, and one overall prize given to the group which contributed the most to the weekend. GAMSON LECTURE: .., ... Precedent Fund! Drive Donors Give 37.8 Million, Campaign Reported Ahead of Schedule At Halfway Point By NEIL SHISTER The University's campaign to raise $55 million in private con- tributions passed the half-way point this week, and National Chairman Paul Goebel expressed confidence that the goal would be met by the target date of Coin- mencement Day, 1967. The total received at the end of 1965, not quite the half-way mark in the campaign schedule. was $37.8 million, far surpassing the $27.5 million year end goal. The principal factor in the cam-a paign's success was the $10 mil- lion gift from the automobile in- dustry for the creation of a High- way Safety Research Institute. Goebel said, however, that eveni without the unexpected gift from the automobile industry the cam- paign would have met its half- year goal. Sources Remain Goebel emphasized that there still exists an untapped reservoir, of major donors, those able to{ contribute more than $10,000 toI the campaign. Only 25 per cent of these major donors, whose po- tential gifts are projected to range up to $1 million, have been as- signed to volunteers for negotia- tions, and thus Goebel is confi- dent that there is a great deal of contributions still to come from private sources. Unsure whether the activities of the Viet Nam p'rotestors have ac- 7 tually damaged the campaign,, Goebel did say that he felt that there were a number of alumni who felt that the sit-in at the, selective service board last Oc- tober had "damaged the image of their alma mater.", Of Decision Not Certain i {i E ...E { E Student's Lawyers Anticipate Similar Rulings in Future By ROGER RAPOPORT FOREIGN AND AMERICAN STUDENTS participating in activities at the International Center nov two new international groups.
