GRADUATE COUNCIL SHOWS PASSIVITY See Page 4 Seventy Years of Editorial Freedom VOL. LXXI, No. 31 ANN ARBOR, MICHIGAN, TUESDAY, OCTOBER 25, 1960 AT BERKELEY: Student Editors, Staffs Quit By JUDITH OPPENHEIM Editors of all student publica- tions at the University of Califor- nia in Berkeley resigned in protest this weekend after the Student, Government Executive Committee declared complete control over the affairs, editorial policy and con- duct of the student newspaper, The Daily Californian; As a result of the conflict The Daily Californian which will ap- pear today is published by the Ex- ecutive Committee. The original Daily Californian staff headed by v editor Dan Silver will issue the Independent Californian on a dif- ferent press. The group has been offered the use of the University of San Francisco's press for to- morrow's issue. Conflict on Support The dispute arose over the news- paper's support on Oct. 14 of stu- dent Michael Tigar, a candidate for the office of representative-at- large on the Executive Committee. Such endorsement of a candi- date was "unprecedented but ap- parently legal under The Daily Graduate Group Organizes To ud UN Civl ervice A group of University graduate students have taken steps to in- terest others in "an expanded United States foreign service and an international civil service for the United Nations." The informal organization, Americans Committed to World Re- sponsibility, was stimulated by recent speeches of national political figures, including Rep. Chester Bowles, who stressed the need for such plans. The group has no formal membership and is non-parti- san. Judith Guskin, Alan Guskin, Note-Service Yelds Profit, Competition By PETER STEINBERGER Professional note-taking serv- ices, a complete innovation when they began operations this Sep- tember, are now seen by their owners as well on the way to be- coming an established local insti- tution.I University Study Service, the first and largest of the groups, expects its profit from this se- mester's business to be "in the four digits," Loren Fishman, '61, a spokesman for the organiation, Demand Brisk le said that demand for the notes had been brisk from the onset but added, "When I sold subscriptions at the stands I no- ticed that people stood back, and formed a circle around the stand, as if they were ashamed to step up. Ihhad to talk to them, and get them to come near, and then ask them casually if they wanted to have their names put down." He said the greatest sales were in lecture sections with large numbers of sophomores, whom he described as "not ashamed to get help." Conceding that there was opposition to the note-taking service, he attriuted such oppo- sition to 'spite or righteous indig- nation,' and called those opposed to professional note-taking 'throw- backs.' "We feel," he said, "that everything that helps you learn is all right-we feel that knowl- edge is what counts." Rival Services There are two more profession- al note-taking services. One of them, Student Lecture Aids, was formed early this year by 10 j n- lors, none of whom are known by members of the other groups. Scholastic Services, a newly- formed rival organization, is plan- ning to begin its services next semester. It will offer its notes at less than half the price of the Study Service and will sell them individually, on the some day as the lecture they describe, rather than by subscription. Arnold Weingarden, '63, one of the or- ganizers of the group, explained that the service had been decided to wait until the spring semester before selling notes so that costs could be cut as low as possible. Non-profit Motive "Our basic motive in establish-, ing another note-taking service," Weingarden said, "is not to make1 exorbitant profits. We will make money, of course, but we will not try to economize by employing academically inferior students, who transcribe notes for a lower wage. All our notetakers are hon- ors students, and many are Merit$ Scholars. "Our notes are for the student who is forced to miss an occasion- al lecture session, rather than a semester-long excuse for cuttingl classes. "We received a threatening1 phone call, warning us that thec University is only big enough forg one note-taking service, but weI believe in American free-enter- Margaret Dwyer, and John Dwyer are circulating petitions which call for support of the principles of the programs. Presently, the organizers are sending letters to college news- papers and student organizations throughout the nation, attempt- ing to initiate similar movements on other campuses. The group will later decide to which persons the petitions will be sent. No definite program has been endorsed by the initiators, but they are attempting to make the propect a continuing one to pro- mote student interest in serving and supportirg the programs. Police Hold Sit-In Head. By The Associated Press Martin Luther King, Jr., the Negro integration leader, remained in jail yesterday as Atlanta auth- orities released 80 other sit-in demonstrators who had been ar- rested during last week's racial trouble. King is being held in connection with a suspended 12 month sen- tence for driving without a li- cense, according to Fulton county authorities, who said this was the reason why King was detained. Others chargedĀ° with violating Georgia's newly - enacted anti- trespass law were permitted to sign their' own bonds. Held in Jail Arrested Wednesday, the first day of mass sit-ins and picketing at downtown stores, King waited in jail while demonstrations con- tinued on Thursday and Friday. Mayor William B. Hartsfield appealed to the demonstrators on Saturday to cease their activity while he attempted to negotiate a settlement with white mer- chants. After agreement had been reached to call off the picketing the Mayor ordered the immediate release of 22 Negroes and one white youth arrested on charges of loafing and disturbance. Sought by Democrat Hartsfield said that King's re- lease had been sought by a mem- ber of Sen. Kennedy's campaign organization; Pierre Salinger, Kennedy's press secretary, con- firmed that a call had been made to Hartsfield asking for an in- cuiry, and expressing a hopeathat "a. satisfactory outcome can be, worked out." Meanwhile, Thurgood Marshall, chief counsel for the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, called on Ne- groes to boycott segregated busi- nesses. Speaking yesterday at a mass meeting, he told hearers to "Stop spending your money where you are being insulted." Shelton Defies College Head Prof. Austin J. Shelton of the English department of Detroit's Mercy College, recently fired from his post, yesterday attended classes in defiance of orders from Sister Mary Lucille, the college president. Prof. Shelton, who contends that Californian bylaws, Berkeley sour- ces said last night. Rod Briggs, a candidate for the same office, called the paper's backing of Tigar "unjustified" and declared a candidate must "be :n good terms with the editor" to get an endorsement. Upholds Convictions Tigar replied he felt the paper's editorial stand was based on "deep conivitions held by the editors" and pointed out that all nine members of the senior editorial staff had signed the editorial, A week after the election, which Tigar lost, the Executive Com- mittee moved to suspend the senior editorial staff of The Daily California, charging that the paper had "not pursued an editorial policy of honesty and decency." Since the paper is technically published by the Executive Com- mittee the suspension was legal. On Sunday the group made its assertion of complete control over the paper and committee presi- dent George Link accused the staff of having an "inbred philosophy." E Refutes Reques The Executive Committee r- fused a request by Silver either to refer the problem to a "con- sultative board" on student publi- cations, or to amend its statement to exclude editorial policy from committee control. It was in response- to this re- fusal that Silver and the editors of allBerkeley student publica- tions resigned. TherCalifornia Committee for Freedom and Independence of the Student Press has been formed and includes representatives from the student political party SLATE, the campus Young Democrats and Young Republicans, and the Stu- dent Civil Liberties Union. Professors Speak At a committee meeting at noon yesterday two University of Cali- fornia professors spoke in behalf of the editorial board, and sup- ported a motion to initiate an amendment to the Executive Com- mittee constitution guaranteeing The Daily Californian editorial freedom. There has been no official com- ment on the situation from the University of California adminis- tration. Regent Named Vice-President Of Association Regent Eugene B. Power was elected third vice-president of the Association of Governing Boards of State Universities at its annual meeting at the University of Washington last week. The agenda of the meeting in- cluded speeches and discussions on such topics as the education of the academically talented, community planning in relation to government - supported institu- tions, evaluation of a university president and the value of edu- cation in national defense. The association is composed of regents- and trustees of 230 tax- supported colleges and universi- ties in 47 states and Puerto Rico. It meets annually to discuss problems common to all state-d supported educational institutions and the "proper responsibilities" of their trustees, Regent Powers1 explained. The association will hold its 1962 meeting at the University.I City Council Given Plans For Zoning By HARVEY MOLOTCH The city Planning Commission submitted detailed plans for the complete rezoning of Ann Arbor to the City Council last night. At the council meeting, Rich- ard A. Ware, chairman of the Planning Commission, noted that Ann Arbor has doubled in area in the last ten years. Thus, ac- cording to Ware's report, the new zoning regulations "are necessary to the appropriate and orderly de- velopment of Ann Arbor." The commission makes it clear that the new chapter of the Ordi- nance Code which it supports "is intended to replace in its entirety the present zoning regulations of the City of Ann Arbor." Types of 'Nonconformity' Besides specific zoning changes, the new regulations would for the first time distinguish between two different types of "non-conform- ity" of properties to zoning laws. A "non-conformity" was defined as a property which although is inconsistent with present law, was at one time in accord with area regulations before new laws were made. The proposals would differenti- ate between non-conforming "us- age" (a gas station in a residen- tial area) and non-conforming "structure" (a two-family house in an area zoned one-family). The regulations would aim at hasteningthe disappearance of both such non-conformers with a minimum of hardship to the per- sonalities involved. Modernization Allowed Owners of such properties would be free to modernize their present structures but would be prevented from expanding or ex- tending the area of the present building on the property. Ware described such structures as "thorns in the side of the city." The proposed changes would also make it next to impossible for an owner of such a property to re- build a non-conforming structure if it were once destroyed by fire or an act of nature. Objections from councilmen that the proposals would place great hardships upon the proper- ty owners involved in non-con- forming usage was met by Ware's statement that currently such bus- inessmen are enjoying govern- ment enforced monopoly. He al- so noted that state law forbids consideration of personal hard- ships in formulating zoning reg- ulations. Only "property hard- ships" such as unique topography may be considered. The council was told that every resident of Ann Arbor should as- sume his property will undergo a zoning change and should in- quire at City Hall as to the na- ture of that change, Prize Winner To Speak Here Peter J. W. Debye, winner of the Nobel Prize for Chemistry, will address a luncheon meeting of the University chapter of the American Chemical Society today. Debye, in Rm. 1300 of the Chemistry Building, will lecture on "The Historical Development of the Quantum Theory." The talk will "emphasize the historic development rather than, the technicalities of the theory," said John Stark, '61, a member of the society. The lecture is open to all interested students and faculty. British Claim Soviet Pla 0 U.S. Tourist Back Home a fter Trial By PETER STUART "I'll tell you, I got a kind of glow when I drove through Ann Arbor-when I saw again the place I had known so well." That's how Mark Kaminsky de- scribed his return yesterday after- noon after his arrest and convic- tion in the Soviet Union last month of "espionage," to the city where he earned two University degrees and taught Russian at the public high school. Kaminsky returned to the home of his parents, Mr. and Mrs. Ig- nace Kaminsky of Edwardsburg, near Niles, Sunday afternoon, and drove yesterday via Ann Arbor to Grosse Pointe Farms to visit Airi- elle Kuhn, whom he met at the University and to whom she says he is "not officially engaged." Earns Degrees Here Kaminsky, 28 years old, earned a bachelor's and a master's de- gree In Russian studies at the University in 1958 and -1960, re- spectively, and lived at 1127 E. Ann St. last year while teaching at Ann Arbor High School. "It's wonderful to be back in Michigan," declared Kaminsky, who is busy calling on friends and piecing together for publication the memoirs of his two-and-a- half-month trip to the Soviet Un- ion. He plans to spend some time in Ann Arbor later this week, perhaps tomorrow, he said. Kaminsky and a traveling com- panion, Harvey C. Bennett of Bath, Me., were expelled from the Soviet Union Oct. 14 after a Soviet court sentenced them to seven years in prison for an es- pionage conviction. Kaminsky de- nied he had spied on the Rus- sians, after arriving at Vienna. Plan Vacation The two men had entered the Soviet Union July 27 for a month- long vacation. After they had been a week overdue in returning, their absence was reported to the Unit- ed States State Department. City Exp~vects Nixon Visit Bands, cheering students, and four horses will greet Vice-Presi- dent Richard M. Nixon as he whistle stops through Ann Arbor at 10:05 a.m. Thursday. The Young Republicans plan to assemble on the Diag at 9:00 a.m., then proceed through the en- gine arch, where they will add four horses and assorted band groups to the expected crowd. They will then proceed down South University Street to State Street and then down to the de- pot, where they will merge with a similar group from downtown Ann Arbor. The Nixon train is expected at 10:05 a.m., and the vice-president will get off to speak from a plat- form outside the station. BOULDING DESCRIBES SEMINAR: Soviets See 'World That Doesn't Exist' By MICHAEL HARRAH "The Russians have a terribly clear picture of a world that doesn't exist; and we have a ter- ribly muddled picture of a world that does," Prof. Kenneth Bould- ing of the economics department last night told the Ann Arbor Committee for a Sane Nuclear Policy. Prof. Boulding told the objec- tives and accomplishments of the American-Russian Youth Seminar in Leningrad this summer where he served as a consultant. The seminar was coordinated through the joint efforts of the American Friends Service Committee and the Committee on Youth Organi- "We didn't take the concept of youth too seriously at first," Prof. Boulding recalled, "but the Rus- sians did. We have no youth move- ments in the West. We have youth leaders, but they don't lead any- body. "The first three days were pretty pure cold war," he went on. "But on the third day, the other American consultant vigorously at- tacked the Soviet ideals. This up- set the young Russians very much and almost broke up the confer- ence. But after that the ice was pretty well broken, and the dis- cussions became much more effec- tive." Four Statement Types
