LXXVII, No. 31 ANN ARBOR, MICHIGAN, FRIDAY, OCTOBER 7 1966 SEVEN CENTS TEN PAGES 'U' Officials To Create Rules Preventing Sit-ins By LEONARD PRATT Associate Managing Edit Daily News Analysis The administration yesterday seemed to be approaching a posi- tion which would require student organizations to guarantee their continued compliance with "stand- ards of conduct approved by the University" and which would pro- vide more extensive sanctions for *violations of those standards. These possibilities reportedly stem directly from last week's Voice political party sit-in at the' office of Wilbur K. Pierpont, vice- president and chief financial of- ficer. "It's obvious that the Voice bus- ' ness isn't going to be allowed to happen again," said one admin- istrator.

SGC Head Concerned About Veto Robinson Questions Cutler's Referral Next Season Theatre Plans Change To Hill Auditorium; Increase Capacity By ANN L. MARCHIO The Professional Theatre Pro-' gram announced yesterday the six Broadway hits that will be brought to Ann Arbor in the 1966-67 Play! of the Month series. Because of the increasing popu- larity of the series, the plays will now run in two-night engage-! ients. A second effort to accom- modate the large audience has been to switch from Lydia Men-' delssohn Theatre to use of the 4,000 seat Hill Aud. The first play to be presented! will be "The Royal Hunt of the' Sun." This will follow the close of the current festival of the Asso- ciation of Producing Artists Reper-' tory Company in November. En- riched by magnificent costumes and an exotic musical background, the play unfolds the gripping con- flict between the greedy Spanish leader Pizzarro and the young Inca; Cod-King. Luv In December Nancy Walker, noted Broadway comedienne and: Scot McKay, star of "Mary, Mary": and "Teahouse of the August Moon," will appear in the comedy, "Luv." The play is directed by *fike Nichols of "Barefoot in the Park" fame. Nichols also directed the film version of "Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf?." Hume C r o n y n and Jessica Tandy, currently being starred in the new Edward Albee play, "A elicate Balance," are expected to appear in "The Lion in Winter." The husband and wife team wily portray King Henry of England and his Queen, Eleanor of Acqui-! taine. The internationally celebrated classic of the musical theatre,! "Porgy and Bess" with an all-star egro company and ., full orches- tra, will be the February attrac- tion. Fifth in the series and in the early part of March will be "After the Fall," the program's contri-I bution to the Arthur Miller Fes- }ival which is to be held during the sesquicentennial celebration. The end of March marks the: final production of this series, Neil Simon's comedy hit, "The! Odd Couple." iK t34 iriaigan atI Tactics on NEWS WIRE Grievance s c Late World News By The Associated Press WASHINGTON-Congress voted more federal aid for the nation's schools last night, but the House added an ironclad prohibition against any federal requirement for busing school children to overcome racial inbalance. The House also adopted an amendment that would slow down efforts by U.S. Education Commissioner Harold Howe II to speed up the pace of school desegregation in the South. In quick succession the Senate passed a bill authorizing $6.4 billion and then the House passed one for $3.7 billion-both to continue for two more years the elementary and secondary school programs launched last year. A compromise will now be sought between the two versions. THE APPOINTMENT of Christopher Carey as managing editor of the University News Service was announced yesterday by Vice-President for University Relations Michael Radock. As head of the News Service, Carey will succeed Fred Mon- crieff, who resigned to accept an appointment as director of pub- lic information at Cleveland State University. Carl Brache, now an editor in the News Service, will assume the post of public information officer for the Medical School, Radock said. Brache will be succeeded as editor by Stuart M. Kaminsky, who will come to the University from his present post as associate director of the University of Illinois Alumni Asso- ciation. VOICE POLITICAL party's executive board decided yesterday to postpone today's rally on the issue of police on campus. The postponement was due to the board's inability to obtain proper advance permission within the time alloted by Student Govern- ment Council. The board also felt that further planning was needed especially with respect to the speakers who would address the rally. * * * * PETITIONING IS now open for two student members of the Committee on Standards and Conduct, a committee of the Joint Judiciary Council.' The committee is the final appeals board for penalties invoked3 by Joint Judiciary and also helps advise officials in the Office of Student Affairs dealing with rules and regulations for student organizations. Petitions are available in room 1011 of the Student Activities Building until Oct. 17. No names need be collected for the petition. *. * * * THE UNIVERSITY Glee Club will leave May 15 for its first round the world concert tour, winding up by participating for a third time in a male choral group competition in Wales.

Cutler has requested the Com- mittee on Referral, which serves in an advisory capacity to him, according to the SGC Plan, to study the new regulations on stu- dent organizations and then pre- sent a report to him. In a letter notifying Prof. Otto Graf, vice-chairman of the Com- mittee on Referral, of' his deci- sion, Cutler said that aside from not having enough time to con- sider the new legislation, "it is imperative, considering recent events, that lines of authority and responsibility.. . not only of stu- dent organizations, but of individ- ual students, be subjected to thor- ough scrutiny." Not Necessary However, Robinson said it may not have been necessary to call the regulations on student organi- zations into question "just because of one incident." The incident was last week's sit- in staged by Voice political par- ty at the office of Vice-President and Chief Financial Officer Wil- bur K. Pierpont. The protest was over the presence of plainclothes policemen at campus events and the problem of student-adminis- tration negotiations. Mark Simons, '67, administrative vrP-president of SGC, proposed that a committee be set up to find out "exactly what information the plainclothesmen gather and what they do with it." The committee would also check into the' legality of the University's relationship with the Ann Arbor police force. Culmination "I see the culmination of the committee's work in an open ses- sion during which the facts would be presented to police, to adminis- trators, and to students." However, Simons emphasized, the committee's report would come to no conclusions. "No decisions will be reached, but the facts will be presented," he said. Details on the proposed committee will likely come before Council next week. Also under discussion at the meeting was the upcoming all- campus referendum on the draft. Council member Ruth- Bauman, '68, reported that great interest had been expressed in it from all quarters and suggested the possi- bility of a series of similar refer- endums on college campuses across the nation. l uwll1U6IMU .

Questions Answered People wander in and stay until two, and leave with their questions answered. As most of the residents are upperclassmen and graduate students, they expect good an- swers. Fletcher's residents are nine- teen and twenty-six, engineers and gymnasts and Ph.D candidates, Sigma Chi's and apartment refu- gees, fiercely proud and just a little smug.
