Four incumbents, Neil Hollens- head, John Preston, Bruce Kahn and Mike Koenke, captured the % largest totals. The two other open- ings were won by Nelson Lande and Leslie Mahler. The student response is a mark- ed contrast to last spring's elec- tion support, when the race for the SGC presidency bruoght out 4,647 voters.

The students continue to be involved and therefore we 'Ocontinue to do worthwhile things." The victorious candidates attri- buted the massive turn-out to va- rious causes. Preston said that it 'is a mandate from the students more aptly called a Cutler Back- lash." Hollenshead said, "It is essen- tial that as many students as pos- sible vote in the SGC election and on the draft referendum as a de- monstration of a belief in these democratic principles." Weather r He also mentioned the weather as a practical factor in the large turn-out, but most of the candi- dates felt that the tremendous vote indicated future student sup- port for SOC as the means for student expression. Kahn, co-chairman of the Draft Referendum committee, said that he will push for more student de- cision making, and voiced pleasure at the size of the vote, since "it indicates that the students are be- ginning to take an interest." * * * * * * * * * Kernbersh ip Ruling Effective Today NEWS WIRE Late World News By The Associated Press CLEVELAND-SAMUEL H. SHEPPARD was acquitted last night in the 1954 bludgeon slaying of his first wife Marilyn, a crime for which he already had spent nine years in prison. The jury of seven men and five women took nearly 12 hours to acquit the 42-year-old former osteopath of second-degree murder in the retrial he won last June in the U.S. Supreme Court. Sheppard served his nine years after another jury-in a courtroom just four steps across the hall-convicted him of second-degree murder Dec. 21, 1954. The defendant did not take the stand in his retrial where 31 witnesses testified, compared with 70 at the nine-week first trial when the jury deliberated five days. At the first trial the charge was first-degree murder, and the state asked the death penalty. A DEFENSE DEPARTMENT SPOKESMAN said last night that leaflets passed out on campus yesterday quoting Robert McNamara were fraudulent. The leaflets referred to an address supposedly made before an American Legion convention in Den- ver, Colo., Tuesday in which McNamara allegedly said that "..,. those students in the lower half of their class or incoming freshmen will be the first to be reclassified if their schools and colleges refuse to make their rank available." The Defense Department points out that McNamara has been in Washington for the past few days. Members of Voice Political Party said they are not respon- sible for the leaflets, which appeared under supposed SDS auspices. FRANCIS A. ALLEN, Dean of the Law School, yesterday de- livered the first of a series of Robert S. Marx Lectures at the University of Cincinnati. The lecture was entitled, "Civil Dis- obedience and the Legal Order." Allen pointed out that there were inequities in the laws and therefore, "civil disobedience is intelligible, however mistaken, if it results in the disobedience to an unjust law." * * ., . "STUDENTS AT THREE OUT OF FOUR state colleges and universities are paying higher tuition, fees, room, and/or board charges this year than they were last year." This was revealed in a survey released Tuesday at the first joint meeting of the National Association of State Universities and Land-Grant Colleges and the Association of State Colleges and Universities. NASULGC is an organization of 97 land-grant institutions and major state universities in all 50 states and Puerto Rico. ASCL is made up of 206 institutions in 43 states, the District of Columbia, and Guam. According to the report, the most dramatic increase in stu- dent charges in recent years is In out-of-state tuition rates. This year's 6.53 per cent increase in out-of-state tuition and required fees at NASULGC institutions came on top of a 19.9 per cent jump last year. Out-of-state tuition and fees total $500 or less at only 13 NASULOC institutions, seven of which were originally establish-9 ed as land-grant colleges for Negroes in Southern and border states. The survey revealed that generally the highest tuition rates are in the eastern part of the country, and those with the lowest tuition and fees are in the west and south. The University, a member of NASULGC, this year has tuition rates of $349 for in-state, and $1,000 out-of-state, room rates of $360, and board, $396. Cutler Does Not Enact Veto Threat New SGC Regulation Ends Requirement For Lists, Advisors By ROGER RAPOPORT New Student Government Coun- cil regulations abolishing the re-, quirement for campus organiza- tions to maintain membership lists went into effect today. Vice-Pres- ident for Student Affairs Richard L. Cutler had contemplated a veto of the controversial measure. Cutler had one week to veto the new rules which were passed by SGC last Thursday. Office of Stu- dent Affairs officials affirmed to- day that Cutler has decided to let the measure stand. The new procedure effectively prohibits recurrence of the uni- versity's disclosure of the mem- bership lists of three left-wing campus groups to the House Un- American Activities Committee. Under the new regulations. the university will probably not have names of members of radical poli- tical organization to disclose. SGC decided to revise the reg- ulation after the school turned in the names of 51 students and 14 faculty advisors of the groups in response to a HUAC subpoena. Under the new regulation, stu- dent organizations do not have to file the names of members or fac- ulty advisors. Only the names of two officers are required. Faculty advisors are no longer mandatory for student organizations.I Cutler had been critical of the council's failure to provide for mandatory faculty advisors and£ raised questions about the advisa- bility of permitting "clandestine organizations" on campus. But the University Committee on Referral had advised Cutler' 4-3 not to veto the new regulation. SGC said last week that it es-1 tablished the new regulations be- cause "many students who mighti joint an organization to learn about it would be discouraged ifi their names were to appear on of- ficial membership lists. TABULATORS IN THE SGC Election worked into the morning to compile the results of the largest voter turn-out in SGC and University history.

"We haven't gone further yet be- cause we didn't have the staff nec- essary to provide the facts and figures; it's too complicated an area to go into without sufficient information," Brennan said.. "We will. certainly be doing more next year, though," he added. Rubber-Stamp "We don't want to have a rub- ber-stamp relation with the Bu- reau of the Budget or duplicate the work of any other state agen- cy," Brennan said. "The board has a -constitutional responsibility to advise the Legislature on higher education budgeting. Once the master plan is in effect, everyone will know what direction the board is going in," he explained. Brennan said the board discuss- ed the types of advisory commit- tees which will be set up to re- view the master plan and the pro. cedures for establishing the com- mittees. He said the board is in favor of including a student com- mittee as well as college govern- ing boards and administrations, faculty, governmental and legisla- tive personnel and the general ci- tizens' committees, all serving in an advisory capacity.

In a record voter turnout yes- terday, students demanded by a vote of 6,389 to 3,508 that the University 'cease the compilation of class rankings for use by the Selective Service. With almost 10,000 students vot- ing, more than twice the number of voters than in any recent Stu- dent Government Council election, complete returns showed females voting almost four-to-one against compilation and males about four- to-three against. Breakdown votes on Part II of the referendum were not avail- able yet early this morning. Armed Forces Regarding the drafting of men into the armed forces, students were asked to indicate their pref- erence among three alternatives: all able-bodied men must serve, a random lottery system, or sele- tive service. Students were' also asked whether they preferred to serve in the armed forces or in some form of alternative service. Beaming at the size of the turn- out, SGC president Ed Robinson, '67, declared, "This shows that what SGC is doing is worthwhile and that students willget involved in things that will affect them." Now to Follow Up He said this proves the draft is "not an off-campus issue" and "hopes that SOC can now follow up on it." Robinson did not spe- cify just what the "follow-up" *might include. A sit-inmight possible result, depending on administration re- action to the referendum, Robin- son indicated. But he warned that because of the "distastefulness -of a sit-in to many people" such an Draft Referendum Totals Opposed to Compilation of Class Rank .......... 6389 In Favor of Continuing Com- pilation of Class Rank. 3518 MALES Opposed..............3347 In Favor...............2754 FEMALES Opposed.............3042 In Favor..............764 Total Vote: 9,907. action must be carefully consider- ed in the light of whether its dis- tastefulness would "be outweighed by the attention it would focus on the grievance." The administration has re- peatedly indicated that it will not accept the referendum as binding. Rooinson said that "binding is a loaded word," and that any fol- low-up moves must be based. on "concrete action" by the admin- istration. Forces of Freedom Michael Zweig, Grad, chairman of Voice Political Party, said -that "the forces of freedom are win- ning. Now we have to. make it mean something." Voice voted Tuesday night to stage a sit-in if the administration continues to compile class ranks in the face of a student vote oppos- ing this policy. Zweig emphasized that "student voice and power will be the focal point of a sit-in." This is in refer- ence to the new regulation an- nounced by Vice-President for Student Affairs Richard Cutler last weekend banning sit-ins in University buildings. Cutler made the rule, under which violators may be subject to fine or suspension. without ffirst By PAT O'DONOHUE Students at Michigan State University continued to sit-in in the main lobby of Bessey Hall yesterday. There were approximately 181 students sitting-in early yesterday morning and the number dwindled to 31 yesterday afternoon, by their leaders' count. The administration at MSU has made no attempts to remove the students from the building and have made no statements about the sit-in. Brad Lang, one of the group's spokesmen, predicted that the group would make an official statement about its intent to con- tinue the sit-in early this morning, whenever the group had reached "sizeable" proportions. The sit-in is being staged in protest against a departmental de- cision not to rehire three MSU instructors, Robert Fogarty, Ken Lawless and Gary Great, by the department of American Thought ind Language (ATL). Bessey Hall houses the ATL department. About 50 students had gone' Tuesday to the office of Edward A. Carlin, dean of the University College, which heads the depart- ment of ATL. At that time they demanded an explanation for the decision on the three instructors. Carlin stood by the orginal de- cision not to renew contracts for the three men but would not make the reasons for this action public, reportedly stating that these rea- According to board President been set for a preliminary draft Thomas Brennan, there is senti- in April and a completed version ment on the board in favor of in June of next year. Oregon Student President Forfeits 2=S Deferment By LEE WEITZENKORN The student body president of the University of Oregon, Henry Drummonds, has given up his stu- dent draft deferment claiming that he is against the principle behind the 2-S deferment. Drum- monds characterizes the present Selective Service as an illegitimate way of deciding which men must fight. "It is immoral to select men to die," he says. n,,,mmana ,rsnts thea nathv The idea behind the deferment, according to Drummonds, is that college students are the future leaders of the country and should therefore be allowed to complete their education before entering military service. However, he maintains that the immediate needs of the war should take pre- cedence over education. Drummonds says that although a certain percentage of college stiudnts would die in Viet Nam. ;:
