LXXVII, No. 155 ANN ARBOR, MICJ~hsAN, THURSDAY, APRIL 6, 1967 SEVEN CENTS TEN PAGES TEN PAGES CAMBRIDGE CONVENTION: SDS To Train Organizers, Move REP Headquarters Non-Student Rule Faces Referendum CLB Issues By SUSAN ELAN Associate Managing Editor Special To The Daily CAMBRIDGE, Mass. - The Na- tional Council of Students for aF Democratic Society (SDS) voted yesterday to hire and train 30 full-time regional teacher-organiz- ers, to move the headquarters of the Radical Education Project (REP) from Ann Arbor to Chi- cago, and to give full support to the Spring Mobilization to End the War In Vietnam. The decision of the National Council of SDS to train 30 organiz- ers will become the primary re-j sponsibility of REP. These region- al organizers will be responsible for meeting the immediate educa- tional needs of the local SDS chapters. This will entail the dis- tribution of film, pamphlets and aid in campus organizing on such issues as student power and the draft. A summer institute will be set up for the intensive training of the teacher-organizers.

Humphrey on his scheduled visit to Berlin today., A police spokesman said the reported plot against Humphrey, who is on a two-week fence-mending tour of Europe, included plans to attack him "by means of bombs with unknown chemicals in plastic bags and with other dangerous instruments such as stones." SEOUL, SOUTH KOREA - The U.N. Command said this morning that U.S.- soldiers manning a guard post in Korea's de- militarized zone clashed with North. Korean intruders and three North Koreans were killed. The incident, one of the most serious since the 1953 armis- tice, occurred yesterday afternoon in the southern half of the buffer zone, the command said. A DUKE UNIVERSITY student senator told the men's stu- dent government association that he had "voted twice" in the recent Duke elections "to prove that it could be done." Alan Amery, senior fraternity senator, now faces possible impeach- ment, although he said his purpose was to show "wide-spread cheating" in the elections. He wants them reheld. The election which set up a new student government joining previously separate men's and women's organizations still has no administrative approval. Students have continued to function under the new constitution since March 18 against administrative request not to do so. A GROUP CALLED "STRAIGHT," in cooperation with Cornell University's Student for a Democratic Society chapter, has been soliciting the names of students promising to destroy their draft cards. On March 10 a student-faculty board decided to forbid such campus activity. But several days ago the Faculty Committee on Student Affairs suspended the enforcement of the decision. The faculty board said that the ruling "will be held in abeyance until a study to deternine the relation between Univer- sity regulations and civil law is completed." f: M SEVERAL HUNDRED STUDENTS at Lincoln University in Jefferson City, Mo., staged a noisy, food throwing demonstration last night in the school cafeteria. Their near riotous performance brought cancellation of the university headliners banquet in which several newsmen were to have received awards. At the dinner hour the students suddenly started overturning tables, tossing chairs and dumping trays of food. One student complained, "The food has been lousy all year." DR. HARVEY V. SPARKS, physiology instructor at the Medical School, has been appointed a Markle Scholar in Aca- demic Medicine. Each year for five years the Markle Foundation will pay the University $6,000 t assist Dr. Sparks in his re- search and on his "development as a teacher." have closer coordination wi national office of SDS, w presently located there. w Experience Wanted with the SGC passes an amendment to the hich is student organization rules and reg- , ulations at tonight's meeting. i i x k i i k i Steve Johnson, an Ann Arbor member of REP, believes "The de- cision shows a growing desire to have people with political exper- ience going out to local chapters. This is a more effective way ofj - interesting people than merely us- ing pamphlets and films. The shift means that the travelers (orga- nizers) will not be separated from the national office. It may mean a loss of Ann Arbor support, but radical education only makes sense with people in the field." The National Council also gave promise of full support to the Spring Mobilization to End the War in Vietnam which will take place on April 15 in New York and San Francisco simultaneously. The Spring National Council of SDS which began here last Sunday has been discussing such questions as problems of the campus move- ment, long-range perspectives for student radicals, National Student Union, draft resistance, and the SDS summer convention. About 125 people are in attend- ance. Delegates have come from the University and Cornell Uni- versity, Washington University, Dartmouth College, the University of Chicago, Columbia University, Harvard University and several other schools. Lee Webb, chairman of the Na- tional Council, said "SDS now has due-paying 6000 members which the national office knows of. With the new system of teacher-organ- izers, I believe the membership of SDS can be tripled within a year. Practically every campus now has an SDS person. It is really a na- tional movement. There are prob- ably between 25,000 to 30,000 peo- ple involved in radical activity."1 Petitioning for the referendum is being organized by Inter-fra- ternity Council, Panhellenic Asso- ciation, Inter-house Assembly and SGC members John Preston, '69; E. O. Knowles, '70, and Kay Stans- bury, '70. SGC would be required to hold a referendum in their reg- ular fall election in November if, three per cent of the student body signs the petitions. Would Open Groups The SGC amendment would al- low up to half the membership of any recognized student organiza- tion to consist of non-students. Under current regulations, student organizations- may only have stu- dent members and officers, IFC President Bruce Getzan, '68, and Panhel President Ginny Mochel, '68, were almost unani- mously instructed by their organ- izations to vote against the pro- posed amendment at meetings this week. Several fraternity presidents said they opposed the change because non-students representing student organizations might shed a bad light on the entire University. Miss Mochel said she was against the amendment because, "The Of- fice of Student Affairs will prob- ably veto the motion and SGC will refuse to recognize the veto. Things could be blown sky high over a relatively unimportant issue." The three SGC members feel that students should be allowed to make a decision on this question themselves. They expressed con- cern over non-student control of organizations leading to actions which would not be in the interest of the University but which could not be controlled.

The report, mailed yesterday to faculty members, stated "While law enforcement agencies ought to exercise judicious and careful determination of the purposes of activities in an educational setting, the University community (has) a responsibility to show care and good taste, and to encourage a positive educational environ- ment." Services Offered "We want to show we're not just standing on the sidelines," said Prof. Abraham Kaplan of the philosophy deparment and chair- man of the Board. "The Board is in a position to offer its services, ideas and re- sources. I think a change in ideas about academic freedom is needed all up the line from students and faculty through the administration hierarchy and in the city. "The various components of the University and the larger com- munity should sit down and try to solve this common problem,' Kaplan added. The Civil Liberties Board said "The Board is concerned with the merits or shortcomings of the film seized" on Jan. 18 by Ann Arbor police. "No member of the Board has seen the film. The concerns of the Board are with the implications and possible precedents of the seizure." The statement warns that the seizure of the film "Flaming Crea- tures" and arrest of four Guild members on obscenity charges "could well have what the courts have described as a "chilling ef- fect" on freedom of expression and freedom of inquiry. "Are guests of the University or its duly constituted organizations, texts and other materials in Uni- versit libraries, books recommend- ed and lectures presented by Uni- versity faculty also subject to sim- ilar unilateral and sudden sup- pression?," asked the report. Lists Implications The report lists the "implica- tions and precedents" of the sei- zure as "the manner in which the film was seized, the realties be- tween law enforcement agencies and the University, the relation- ship of the University with its duly conistituted organizations, and the rights and responsibilities of the University-in freedom of expression and freedom of in- quiry." "To this end," concludes the statment, "the Board offers to consult with the University ad- ministration and other members of the University community in developing procedures to encour- age a proper and cooperative re- lationship with the community at large in matters of civil liberties." The Board statement reviews the relationship of Cinema Guild to the University and gives a brief account of the seizure of "Flaming Creatures." The Board also said it did not "believe the purpose of showing the film was to embarrass the Uni- versity." In the report, the Board noted that "a reasonable and proper relationship exists between the University and Cinema Guild, that responsibility was properly placed ,that past performance in- dicated the responsibility would be carried out properly." The statement issued questions the propriety of charging a police } officer "with sole responsibility of judging the moral acceptability of ' a publicly advertised and openly presented work to the extent of SBooklet Gives Vi ews On 'Student Power' By STEVE NISSEN sonally typed letters inviting them About 50 copies of "Students to submit articles, but none did." and University Decision Making," Ben Hoffman, Grad, also of a booklet prepared by Guild I Guild House Council, states in the House, were sold on the Diag yes- introduction to the booklet "they t rdin ThP b klt t tPYIC r (administrators) renliedr that thev Aer ay. 1 eL pr esen Ls ar- ticles from students and faculty representing a wide range of ideas on the "student power" question.
