LXXVII, No. 71 ANN ARBOR, MICHIGAN, WEDNESDAY, NOVEMBER 23, 1966 SEVEN CENTS SIX PAGES U' Alumni i Tour World During $551!Campaign By NEAL H. BRUSS Some of the University's alumni are cruising around the world on the S.S. President Roosevelt; oth- ers are planning and executing donation drives; all are being made aware of the University's 150th anniversary and the role they can take in the celebration. The 126 alumni on the boat left San Francisco Oct. 12 on a ses- quicentennial-marking tour to 24 ports. The cruise has been called "a prelude to a year-long celebra- tion." The donations are being collect- ed for the University's $55 million campaign. At. present 47 local drives are being staged; ten more are expected before the end of the year. The two events are not unre- lated, and not because there may be $55 1Mdonors on the boat. The two are major non-academic events in the sesquicentennial, possibly the two most planned and publicized events of the celebra- tion. The trip around the world may in itself be the most detailed alumni relations project the Uni- versity has undertaken. It is, sig- nificant enough for President Hatcher to make the trip from New York to Acapulco during Win- ter recess, for Vice President and Chief Financial Officer Wilbur Pierpont to sail on the Mediter- ranean, and for Vice President for Academic Affairs Alan F. Smith to sail from Tokahama to Singa- pore, both during separate periods in December. All three vice-presidents are taking sections of the sesquicen- tennial trip on their own vacation time. All are paying their own fare: the University is not under- writing their trip expenses. Vice President for University Relations Michael Radock was scheduled to take a shift on the alumni boat, but he cancelled his tour, in order to work on the $55 M program. Currently, the $55 M fund hasI raised an excess of '$50 million, with approximately $2 million in undesignated funds. The undesignated funds are being directly channeled into the Graduate Library project, given top priority on a list of 18 con-i struction or rehabilitation pro- jects. Building costs for the Graduate Library are estimated at $5.2 mil- lion, with such features as two $150 thousand rare book rooms and a $250 thousand map room. Before other projects can be funded with undesignated contri- butions, the cost of the Graduate Library must be met.

Recommend Expansion of Med Schools Board of Educationi Committee Suggests Guidelines for 'U' By LAURENCE MEDOW The State Board of Education's Citizens' Committee on Health Care Education recommended yes- terday expanding the medical pro- grams at the University,Michigan State, and Wayne State Univer- sities. MSU's two-year course in its College of Human Medicine, which enrolled its first students this fall, should be expanded to a four-year course offering the medical doctor degree, the committee said. It said further that the Univer- sity should 'consider expansion of its capacity by 50 additional first- year places by 1976, bringing its total to 260." The state board will receive the committee's report at its Nov. 29-30 meeting when it can: -accept the report and pass It directly on to the Legislature and the governing boards of the in- stitutions involved; -reject the report; or -call for further discussion and investigation. Board member Edwin Novak said last night that further study was the most probable action. "This is a recommendation to the board and not a policy-making decision," he explained. "It is the LAST ISSUE With this issue, The Daily will cease publishing for the Thanksgiving recess. Publica- tion will r e s u m e Tuesday, Nov. 29. board's responsibility to review the guidelines used in saking the recommendation and then make its decision on- accepting or re- jecting the committee's recom- mendation. "We also have to consider es- tablishing a four-year osteopathic school, as part of the state's med- ical education picture," Novak added. Novak said further study would not be aimed at establishing prior- ities or timetables for expansion.' "If the board accepts the recom- mendations of the committee, it is up to the autonomous governing boards of the schools and the Legislature to implement them," he explained. The nine-member citizens' com- mittee, chaired by Michigan Su- preme Court Justice Otis Smith, recognized an "overwhelming need for more physicians in the state of Michigan." Michigan will need a minimum of 500 places for first-year med- ical students within 10 years. The state's two four-year schools now have places for 325. VERA BAITS HOU NEWS WIRE MICHIGAN STATE UNIVERSITY'S library, trying to halt an annual $10,000 book loss, plans to install an electronic gadget to stop anyone walking out with "hot" books. Metal plates will be put in the books, and charged electrically. If a book is properly checked out, the librarians will remove the charge. Anyone attempting to leave with books that still are "hot" will be detected by two six-foot poles-or "sensing columns' -beside the door, and the sensing columns automatically will lock the exit turnstile. If necessary, a sending "wand" will be used to show exactly where the charged books are hidden. - * * ,' PLANS FOR THE, DEVELOPMENT of the State Board of Education's Master Plan for Highher Education now include a separate student advisory committee, according to John Porter, head of the Bureau of Higher Education and assistant state superintendent of public instruction. Procedures for setting up the student committee, which would review preliminary drafts of the plan along with faculty, administration, professional and other groups, have not yet been established. - Porter said study committees on such areas as student finan- cial aids, capital outlay and fiscal policy, admissions, and enroll- ment projections, are currently being established to develop position statements which would be incorporated into the plan, Porter said preliminary drafts will probably be issued next spring. * * * * THE HUMAN RELATIONS COUNCIL will release a profile of its past activities and projection for the future early next week, according to David Cawley, a member of HRC. They plan to meet next Tuesday to take final action on the measure. 1 * * * * DEAN WILLIAM HABER of the literary college is one of 48 national sponsors of a new organization formed to fight radical- ism of either the left and right. The organization, Institute for American Democracy, is headed by Dr. Franklin H. Littell, president of Iowa Wesleyan College. Dr. Littell was director of religious affairs at the Uni- versity from 1944 to 1949. "INCIDENT AT VICHY" and "After the Fall," the two most recentsplays by Arthur Muller, willrbe included in the University Players' Arthur Miller Festival of Three Plays, as a part of the University's Sesquicentennial Celebration in 1967. Both plays met with a storm of controversy in New York when they premiered at the Lincoln Center theatres, and the University Players are pleased to bring these compelling . and timely dramas to the scrutiny of the Ann Arbor audiences. Both had been scheduled by the Play of the Month series, but had to be cancelled. PETITIONS FOR SIX OPEN seats on Joint Judiciary Council are now available at Rm. 1011 of the Student Activities Bldg., Joint Judic Chairman Richard Zuckerman, '67, announced yester- day. Petitioning will close at 5 p.m. Nov. 29, and interviews are tentatively scheduled for Nov. 29 and 30. Joint Judic is a student organization and has primary jurisdiction to try alleged vio- lations of University rules for student conduct. At present, its status is being reviewed by the Office of Student Affairs as part of a broader re-evaluation of non-academic disciplinary proce- dures.j ** THE LITERARY COLLEGE Steering Committee yesterday# decided to express its philosophies concerning student participa- tion in the realm of academics through "concrete proposals" sub- mitted to various administrators. Joe Litven, '67, said at yesterday's meeting that students should have an active role in academics and an influence in the decision-making within the college. SING: SGC Action Criticized As 'Radical IEngineering Council - Suggests Moderation To Reduce Tension By CAROLYN MIEGEL The Engineering Council last night qualified their support of the Student Government Council action last Monday. The Coun- cil, representing the 5000 students in the engineering college, passed a resolution stating that "students are in no position to issue ulti- matums to the administration." Dave Osmer, '67, president of the group, stressed that while "the Council agrees with the purpose of the SGC - a larger student, voice-we do not wholeheartedly agree with the methods used in achieving this voice." IcPointing out that the "conserv- ative, moderate view was not rep- resented" in the agenda presented at the all campus teach-in Mon- day night where the sit-in pro- posal was passed, the Council urged SGC to try "a more effec- tive means of student-administra- tion communication." Child's Tantrum Described by one member of the Council as a "little child throwing a tantrum," the SGC action was criticized by the Council for lack of any thought about the long- term effects of the break with the Office of Student Affairs. The Council stressed that the resolutions passed last night were only suggestions to both the ad- ministration and the SGC. Their suggestions included: ! That the actions taken at the teach-in need not represent the wishes of the majority of students at the University, because the body was not necessarily a representa- tive cross section of University I students. I That the students of the Uni- versity should have a voice and be consulted regarding the deci- sions that affect them, but not have ultimate power in making Walkout Policy R Halts S GC e- evaluation BOB SMITH, '67, Student Government Council member, addressing last night's Council meeting.

WOULD JOIN SIT-IN: Teaching Fellows Meet To' Plan Possi~ble Acti~on 5 Members Stop Draft Issue-Vote Fear Tally Would Have Been 10-5 To Lift Binding Demand By STEPHEN FIRSHEIN A last-minute walkout by five mnembers last night prevented Stu- dent Government Council \from voting on a motion which would have advocated a temporary sus- pension of the demand that the administration's policy on ranking be determined by last Wednes- day's all-campus refereidum. The 'demand was set out at Monday night's all-campus meeting in Hill Aud. The walkout pushed the Coun- cil's attendance down to 10 mem- bers-two below the quorum level nevessary to transact business. The motion, proposed by Neil Hollenshead, '67, would have re- iterated Monday's request that the administrtion's controversial sit-in ban be lifted. Five members- Ruth Baumann, '67; Cindy Sampson, '68; Margaret Asman, '68; John Preston, 69, and Bruce Kahn, '68-left after, in the words of one "it looked like we'd be laughed off campus" when the motion passed by a likely 10-5 majority. After an earlier inconclusive meeting with University President Harlan Hatcher, Council had met to diuss the implications of Mon- day night's mass meeting in Hill Aud. and its plans for future ac- tion. Discussions revealed a deep split over the issues of ultirate SGC leadership in the movement and over the wisdom of following the Hill Aud. meeting's demands, which Sherry Meyer, '69, termed an "obvious railroad job" not rep- resentative of either the 26,000 University students not in attend- ance, or of SGC. Hollenshead's motion followed this discussion. The supporters of the motion shared the feeling that SGC had renewed its control over the move- ment and should reassert its claim as the elected spokesman for the students by dissociating itself from the rally's demands. The proposal asked that, in the light of the Faculty Assembly's Monday request that students lift their demands for a binding ref- erendum, the whole question of the draft and the University :be referred to a joint committee of. students, faculty and administra- tors for future consideration. Jay Zulauf, '67, supporting the motion, charged that "The agenda was totally closed at the Hill gath- ering. This Council cannot claim to represent the campus if the students want something different .. the schism between students and the administration will widen further if this ultimatum is made." , SGC President Ed Robinson, '67, attacked the Hollenshead pro- posal. saving that.

One person indicated t h a t teaching fellows "should withhold all grades"' in a grade bank" until ranking ends. Several possible administrative reactions to such a plan were mentioned. These ranged from terminating teaching fellow con- tracts immediately to a refusal to renew these contracts. The committee then discussed the possibility of teaching fellow participation in the literary col- lege faculty meeting that will con- sider pass-fail. Teaching fellows argued that as graders they should have a voice in the decision. It will take a change in the Re- gents by-laws to give the teaching fellows a vote in that meeting, but the faculty could invite the teach- ing fellows to attend. Therefore it was suggested that a letter be sent to the faculty ex- pressing the group's concern about grading and suggesting that teach- ing fellows be heard at the meet- ing. Some teaching fellows argued that if they participate in the meeting, they would be acknowl- edging that the Faculty's decision would be' binding on them, even though they had no vote. This argument met some op- position, and the group came out as supporting the idea of sending a letter. But it was later decided that the group as a whole would not send a letter, but that indi- viduals might. Some teaching fellows warned that if a few sent in letters, all teaching fellows might be invited, and that if many did not show up, it would be felt that teaching fel- lows were apathetic.
