F Late World News By TfVe Associated Press WASHINGTON-The aides of the Senate Subcommittee on Investigations have been sent to Saigon to check reports of misuse of government property and funds, Sen. John L. McClel- lan (D-Ark) said last night. Asked, if the reports concerned bribery or corruption, Mc- Clellan said: "That may be involved. We're not sure what all will be found." McClellan, chairman of the Senate Government Operations Committee, would not say where the reports came from but called them "of sufficient reliability" to warrant dis- patch of the two aides. PROF.

REHMUS of the Institute of Labor and Industrial Relations was named by President Johnson yesterday to a special emergency board to study a dispute between Pan American World Airways and the AFL-CIO Transport Workers Union. * * * * PI KAPPA ALPHA fraternity has announced its decision to accept an invitation to return to campus. The national organiza- tion recently released plans to form a colony to re-establish the Beta Tau chapter, which has been absent from campus since 1936. The fraternity was 'chartered on campus in 1922 and was active until the house met financial difficulties following the Depression. Plans for rush to establish the colony will be an- nounced before the end of the year. * * * UNIVERSITY STATISTICS released yesterday indicate that almost half of the students filling out registrationaires did not indicate a religious preference. Out of 29,025 forms surveyed, 14,160 indicated no preference. The 14,865 who did show a preference represented more than 50 denominations and beliefs. The most represented religions on campus are: Roman Catho- lic (4044); Judaism (2563); Lutheran (1395); Presbyterian (1393): Methodist (1372); and Episcopal (1015). * *~ * * A CITY COUNCIL policy may force a change in the route of this year's homecoming parade. Although "hundreds of dollars" have already been spent in advertising the route as beginning at the Farmers Market, the city council, in response to complaints from local people last year, adopted a policy forbidding parades to originate there. Representatives of the Homecoming Committee have met with city officials but have not yet been able to work out the route. Attending the event will be Gov. George Romney, G. Mennen Williams, Sen. Robert Griffin, Mayor Wendell E. Hulcher and Miss Michigan. The parade will be held on Oct. 21 in the afternoon. YPSILANTI'S GREEK Theatre was unanimously voted the state's most outstanding community achievement from among 16 regional selections in a contest which began last May during Michigan Week.

Hershey answered questions dealing with the Viet Nam conflict and with the draft system he heads. Asked what he would do if he were of draft age and found he would be forced to perform military acts he "found morally im- possible to support," Hershey said, "In order to maintain your dignity, you'd have to go to the penitentiary."

The peace vigils, to be held each Wednesday at noon, are being organized by Voice political party and Ann Arbor Women for Peace. Nearly 90 people partook in yesterday's vigil, which was marred by several pushing incidents between the participants and apparently unsympathetic bystanders. GEN. HERSHEY'S 'SAWDUST': -Th1-AMan Goes North; Finds Warm By ROGER RAPOPORT Special To The Daily Last of a Two-Part Series TORONTO - "I've always' thought a man had an obligation to go fight where his country tells him to," says Corporal Ron Mc- Intosh, a career soldier with theI Canadian Army. "But it seems to me that the United States hasn't given its boys much of an explan- ation on why they should go to Viet Nam. So if they want to come up here to escape the draft it's fine with me." Most of official Canada viewsI things the same way. Police, civic, and university administrators as well as the press solidly endorse the right of Americans to avert' conscription. American diplomatic and mili- tary officials are not visibly dis- mayed about the situation either.

Nicholas Volk, U.S. Vice-Consul in Toronto says he is not worried about the aid Canadian groups are giving American draft dodgers. "It's none of our concern," says Volk. "We feel it's a matter for the Canadian government. We are guests here." Volk says of draft dodging: "Anything like this naturally en- courages the Communists, but generally I think the problem is overrated." Nonetheless American officials have taken an active interest in special cases. The Royal Canadian Mounted Police says it receives five or six inquiries a month from the, Federal Bureau of Investigation seeking to find Canadian citizens who lived or worked in the U.S. and returned to Canada when they received their draft notices. (Canadians who live in the U.S. are subject to American draft' laws.) And one draft dodger reports that a woman who had been ac- tively finding homes for new American arrivals was recently vis- ited by agents from the American Secret Service and the Royal Canadian Mounted Police. When the officials questioned the woman about her settlement activities of the previous weekend she offered the perfect alibi. The See CANADIAN, Page 6 Petition Cites Baits Dorm Inadequacies Residents' Complaints Include Study Areas, Transportation, Food By DEBORAH REAVEN "We, the residents of Vera Baits Housing, ask that you correct some of the FRETS of living in off-campus dormitories," Approximately 250 of the al- most 600 residents of the Baits housing complex have signed petitions to the University Ad- ministration concerning t h e s e "FRETS": food, recreation, edu- cation, transportation, service. The petitions will be presented tonight to Student Government Council with a recommendation from Uni- versity Activities Center president, Jay Zulauf, '67, that SGC review them and analyze the possibilities of taking action. However, Director of Housing John Feldkamp said last night that "every point (in the petition) is presently in the mill and has been for some time. Those problems that do not al- ready have solutions will have them soon, he added, asserting that his office has attempted to keep the channels of communica- tion with students open. The major student complaints center on alledgedly inadequate bus service from Baits to central campus, high prices of food at the North Campus commons, lack of recreation facilities and study areas, and as one petitioner said,- the feeling of "living on a desert island." Bus transportation as of now does not include a bus earlier than 7:32 a.m., nor one after 12:36 a.m. Students with 8 o'clock classes are complaining that an earlier morn- ing bus is necessary since the commons does not serve breakfast and the 7:32 bus leaves no time for eating on campus. The lack of late evening bus service means that all Baits residents without cars must be back on North Cam- pus at 1:00 even after weekend dates. Another major complaint is that Baits residents must ride the bus for an extra 20 minutes around North Campus because the buses make a complete circuit of the area, going first to the married housing complex. Besides the complaint that there is no breakfast available on North Campus except from vending machines, the petition also states that lunches and dinners are too expensive and that only "pre- packaged, pre-refrigerated and pre-cooked" snacks are available. Supper is "fine, unless you want snacks or something costing less than about $1.50 a night," says the petition. And lunches do not sell at' "lunch-like" prices. Recreation facilities do not gx- ist as of now according to the pe- tition. It specifically complains of the lack of furniture in the loun- ges. The same complaint also ap- plies to study areas. The'petition also ofiers solutions to the problems. The main pro- posal concerning bus service, be- sides the schedule, is that alter- nate buses make the loop around North Campus in the opposite di- rection going first to Baits. This would eliminate the 20 minute ride the students now take. The petition also suggests instal- lation of refrigerators on corridors, opening the Commons for some sort of breakfast and at night for snacks, setting up a few temporary basketball nets, using the dining room for activities such as UAC's Little Club, and opening part of the Commons Sunday through Thursday nights as a study hall. Robert West, manager of the North Campus Commons said he would be more than happy to serve breakfast if 300 students requested it. However, a sufficient number has not shown interest in that service. West also noted that he has re- cently started offering sandwich- es of all kinds as well as the usual variety of lunches and din- ners and will soon be instituting a soup, sandwich and beverage package for 85 cents. He has also sent a questionnaire to students trying to determine the popularity of a student meal program utilizing coupons. Study areas have been discussed with West and he has agreed to the use of the snack bar as a stu- dy area evenings up till midnight. If the need arises; he will consider onning the dining area upstairs. To Study SGC vote country's actions immoral. "He i he said, "but how is he going to society?"
