While some elements of the! longer program have already been incorporated into the current cur- riculum, the entire proposal awaits final administrative approval and, approval of ,the Regents. Wehrer said that partial implementation! of the new six year program would hopefully begin next fall. Wehrer explained that the cur- riculum change has been evolu- tionary rather than revolution- ary, with movement toward the extended program gaining momen- tum during the past two years. He pointed out that the faculty has been long concerned with offer- ing students an adequate prepara- tion for an architectural career. The University's present pro-' gram in architecture, Wehrer not- ed, is one of "highly fixed in- struction" in which virtually every course is specified. The six-year program has been developed to- ward providing students with suf- ficient flexibility and opportunity for gaining a variety of skills and interests. Primary among the changes to be instituted in the six year curriculum will be a two year pre-architectural study pro- gram with loose specifications in the area of liberal arts. During these so-called pre-pro- fessional years, students will take courses they are most interested in and which they feel will relate most directly to future architec- tural specialization. The four years of professional study will also be open to a wide range of elective courses with a basic core program. The student will be able to expand upon his strengths as he discovers them and choose electives, in both profes- sional and general areas. Ar- rangements are being made now, Wehrer said, with, other schools in the University so that archi- tecture students will have access to courses in landscape architecture,! engineering, or liberal arts accord- ing to his interests. One option currently being plan- ned may enable students to re- ceive a degree from the literary college while pursuing the profes- sional degree in architecture. Wehrer outlined the three ma- jor aspects of the architectural; curriculum which the student will integrate in his studies under the headings of :man and environ- ment, building technology, and de- sign theory and method. Man and environment will deal with human problems in an en- vironmental context, while build-. ing, technology will stress struc- ture and the translation of tech- } nology into society in physical terms. Design theory and method, Wehrer continued, will help the student organize his approaches to the solving of architectural; problems.

Thorton of Detroit has asked the Selective Service to turn in the draft files of six University students who had been reclassified as 1-A for sitting in at the Ann Arbor draft board last year. Thorton warned draft officials not to draft the six students, pending hearing of their current suit against the Selective Service. Thorton recessed the court precedings so that he can study the draft files.

Kelley called for licensing a motorcyclist the same way an automobile driver is licensed and for courses in driver education that include motorcycle instruction. Kelley said that he will propose legislation that would re- quire licensing, road tests, driver education courses, dual brakes, and mufflers "in good working order and in constant operation to prevent excessive or unusual noise and annoying smoke for all motorcycles." A STUDY RELEASED by the University Highway Safety Research Institute revealed that 40 per cent of all highway fatal- ities could be prevented by wearing seat belts. The study's direc- tor, Dr. Donald F. Huelke of the anatomy department, reporting the results of the four and one-half year study to a meeting of the National Safety Council, said, "it is imperative that much more emphasis must be placed on educating the American public as to the value of seat belts." EDWIN G. BURROWS of the University Broadcasting Serv- ice has been named board chairman of the National Association of Education Broadcasters. Burrows is manager of WUOM, Ann Arbor, and WVGR, Grand Rapids. MORE THAN 1,000 WOMEN have received assistance from the University Center for Continuing Education of Women in the two years since its establishment, according to a report re- leased yesterday. The help offered by the center, according to Mrs. Jean Camp- bell, director, is primarily one of counseling and information about university and college programs available to the returning woman student. The center also gives advice on educational and vocational planning within the framework of the individual's home responsibility. THE UNIVERSITY is purchasing the Observatory Lodge, a 34-unit aparment building on Washington Heights St., as part of its, plan for the expansion of the public health school. An addition to the public health school is to be built in 1967-68 on property east of Observatory Lodge, according to plans announced last July. A grant of $2 million has been received from the W. K. Kellogg Foundation for expansion purposes and federal grants are expected to provide the major balance of the total of $6,650,000 needed. The Observatory Lodge site will provide space for further development of public health facilties. THlE STUDENT COMMITTEE FOR A FREE CHINA, a newly formed group having offices on 70 campuses throughout the country, was organized to inform American students of the reali- ties of Red China and to mobolize student action against any appeasement of the Peking regime. The group hopes to have representatives on a minimum of 400 college and university campuses within the next two months. The Student Committee is a project of the American Secre- tariat of the World Youth Crusade for Freedom, an organization founded last year to stimulate and coordinate the activities of anti-Communist youth groups throughout the world. eaffirms Powers 'Tells Deans Of Planned OSA Review } Court Gets Landlord Dispute Wagner Serves 28 With 'Give Cause' Order, Fines VOICE Criticizes Charges, as Faculty Dissidents Organize a By BOB CARNEY Associate Editorial Director The dispute between landlord, Martin Wagner and the ad hoc group charging him with racial discrimination moved from the picket line into Circuit Court yes- terday.

The new option will be availa- ble starting Nov. 1 to an individual who tries to join the Army in a month when its enlistment quotas already have been met. Specifically, the young man will be enlisted with a definite future reporting date for a regular three- year period of active duty and a total six-year obligation counting Reserve service which follows his active assignment. During the waiting period he will be assigned to a holding pool and classified by the selective service as 1D, as Reservists are classified. The Army said, however, such individuals will not receivepay, nor will they participate in Re- serve training. Such enlistments will not be counted in the Re- serve strength. If, however, something fails to open up during the four months, the young man will be required to proceed on a three-year active duty tour.

Cutler said yes- terday that he does not view his newly won disciplinary powers as "a charge to me to exercise sum- mary or arbitrary authority over any student or student group." In a letter to all University deans Cutler offers his interpreta- tion of the Regents' decision last Friday to give him all non-aca- demic disciplinary powers former- ly spread out among other admin- istrators, academic deans, and the faculty. Cutler says he plans to: -"Not involve himself" in dis-- ciplining students or In reViewing disciplinary decisions "except in unusual cases;" -Continue to recognize "the role of academic authority in cases of non-academic discipline where expulsion of a student is involved;" and -Require the planned new cen- tral judiciary unit "to consult with appropriate academic authorities&" Broad Segment Cutler says in his letter he plans "to involve as broad a segment of the community as possible in the development of an effective and workable system." In an interview he explained that he will seek -assistance from students and faculty in drawing up the new disciplinary system asked for by the Regents. However, he has not determined what structural role the student and faculty advisors will assume. Meanwhile student activists and members of the faculty senate in- dicated yesterday expressed op- position to Cutler's stand. In a resolution passed last night VOICE voted to recognize "Stu- dent Government Council as the only body which can legitimately deal with non-academic student matters. Any attempt by any other body, such as the Office of Stu- dent Affairs, to deal with such matters and attempt by another body to be a' final arbitrator of decisions made by SGC is a dis- tortion of democracy..., Halt Power Meanwhile disgruntled faculty senate members indicate they plan to try to halt the power realign- ment. The faculty move could take several forms, but a likely possi- bility is that the Senate will con- sider asking the academic deans not to recognize the Regents' move by continuing to assert jurisdic- tion in s t u d e n t disciplinary matters. "We want to demonstrate that the governance of students resides with the faculty and not with some administrative official," says one leader of the faculty opposi- tion. 'The faculty dissidents are con- cerned that under the new ar- rangement a student can be ex- pelled without the explicit ap- proval of his college. Until Friday academic consent was always re- quired in such cases. But Cutler claims that he will not usurp such faculty rights. In his letter to the deans he noted a "need to provide continuity of handling of cases of non-aca- demic conduct within the proced- ures of the system which now exists."
