Europeans Protest About 1,000 Europeans shoute "Aigerte Francaise" and ,"d Gives Nego School Area T NN I To N0ei .ghbor By MICHAEL OLINICK The problems of an all-Negr school district that have plague Detroit and its suburbs for ove 15 years still appeared unsettle last night after state and county attempts to solve them. The Oakland County Board o Education yesterday dissolved the financially unstable Carver Schoo District and attached it to an al white neighbor, the Oak Park Dis trict, over protests by Oak Par residents. The board's action wa caused by a resignation of all of Carver's school board members in September. The resignation, an the lack of candidates, in an en suing special school board elec- tion, necessitated the district'F dissolution and its attachment t an adjacent area. Carver lies immediately north of Detroit. In selecting the predominantly Jewish suburb of Oak Park, th county bypassed alternatives t attach part of Carver to the Fern dale district, an integrated system #,We reached our decision after hearing testimony from both Oak Park and Ferndale school repre- seatatives." Dr. Roy Emerson Oakland County Superintendent said. Governor Williams had urged the dissolution of the Carver dis- trict at a meeting of its residents this summer. He told them thai their school district could not sup- port an adequate kindergarten through 12th grade system on its low tax 'base. Carver had been forced to operate a senior high -school after Detroit, Oak Park and Ferndale had denied requests to accept Carver students on a tuition basis in their secondary schools. Detroit had been educat- ing the Carver youngsters for a number of years, but felt its schools were 'too overcrowded to permit any new influx of pupils from outside its own system. Oak Park residents appear adamant that the Carver chil- dren should not'be "thrust upon" them. Racial bigotry flared brief- ly in this young suburb when citi- zens held an open meeting two months ago to discuss the possi- bility of accepting tuition students from Carver. One resident describ- ed the Negro youngsters living in Carver as "whores and hoodlums" and asked the Oak Parkers if they wanted their children "to associate with such people." L. - GSC Planning}} Better Contacts The Graduate Student Council, meeting in Rackham's East Lee- ture Room last night, made plans to improve the communication be- tween the council and graduate students, and increase the num- ber of departments represented on the council. Each of the University's 60 graduate departments is entitled to at least one seat, and some- times more than one, on the council. At present there are for- ty members on the council. The group also discussed means to improve the continuity of the council's membership by training new members in the spring of each year, instead of electing them without prior experience in the fall.

Secur- yLocal Victor e Optimistic It .,For Future d n By MICHAEL HARRAH Even though the Republicans d met defeat on the national and e statewide levels, the local GOP - victors expressed optimism for the times to come. Incumbent Congressman George Meader (R-Ann Arbor) predicted that President-elect John F. Ken- nedy would meet opposition in the next Congress when he presents his legislative program. "In view of the Republican gains in the House," he said, "I would say that this Congress will be even less prone to welfare state legislation than the last one. Many of the Democratic one-term d wonders have been defeated and (Teamster President James R.) r Hoffa's purge was a flop. y ' Notes Indication "This indicates that perhaps f the country at large does not con- e cur with the Reuther-Kennedy l liberal thinking." l Meader said that the "New - Deal-Fair Deal-New Frontier" k wing of the Democratic Party was s In reality a minority of that par- f ty, perpetuated only by the tra- s ditional ties in the more conser- I vative Southern states. - However, he dispelled any idea - of a GOP-Dixiecrat coalition. s "There's no such thing," he said, U "These congressmen simply vote the same way because the people 1 back home have the same beliefs." Express Optimism The two new state legislators o from Ann Arbor also expressed optimism about the state's course under the administration of Gov- ernor-elect John B. Swainson. Both Senator - elect Stanley : Thayer (R-Ann Arbor) and Rep- resentative-elect Gilbert Bursley were confident that the passage ' 'of the sales tax referendum would relieve the state's immediate cash crisis. Bursley said that while the penny hike would time Michigan; t over for at least two years, it would not be a substitute for general tax revision. Bursley said that the passage some discussion on whether or not the Legislature should boost' the tax the full one per cent or ' not. He pointed out that, in spite1 of what the opposition had claim-: ed, the penny increase would be more than enough to handle the situation, as far as relieving the present crisis. Education One Problem Both Bursley and Thayer saidf that higher education was one of: e the first problems for the Legis- lature to tackle. "Their share depends on the1 revenue situation," Thayer said., "The University has to moves ahead as fast as available fundss will permit. I will certainly ad- vocate the best interests of the! University, so long as they pre-c sent legitimate requests."1 Brusley said that the passage of the sales tax would provideI revenue to satisfy University eedst and to assume a small amount of capital outlay. He looked to gen-c eral tax revision to provide moreI sufficient funds.- Both men anticipated some fric- tion between the governor and the Legislature, but hoped that te7 impasse of the last 12 years could! be eased. Thayer called for an end to partisan squabbling and con- centration on constructive legis- lation. Disrupt Sit-in With Water, Insect Spray NASHVILLE, Tenn (M )-- Em- ployes of a chain lunch counter used a water hose, cleaning pow- der and insect spray ;yesterday to disrupt a sit-in demonstration by Negro students. The incident occurred at The Krystal, one of five restaurants and cafeterias which were sit-in targets during the afternoon. No arrests were maide. ity police stormed in and dispersed the crowd with clubs. Many in tense Algeria and in France itself feared this may be the prelude to bloody anti-govern- ment demonstrations in the terri- tory on Armistice Day. Algerian terrorists; who want no part of de Gaulle's policy of placation and gradual move to- ward self rule-struck again in this uneasy French capital. Seven Killed Two of them killed seven rival Algerians with machine guns in a suburban cafe while a third brandished a grenade, threatening to throw it if any tried to flee. Police blamed this latest upshot of violence in the Algerian quarter on two rival bands of nationalists who support the six-year-old re- bellion in the territory but fight each other for control of the rebel government. They theorized that members of the National Liberation Front were striking back at members of the Algerian National Movement in reprisal for a raid on an FLN cafe in a suburb Nov. 2. In the midst of this sort of battleground, de Gaulle was re- ported bent on making a dramatic move to end the long rebellion. And an Algeria Republic, which would give the Algerians at least the framework for self rule, was reported to considering. be one step he wasI New Orleans To Inategrate NEW ORLEANS (P)-The New Orleans school board, climaxing a dramatic day of federal - state maneuvering, last night approved integration of five Negro first grade girls into two of the city's' segregated school. The five-member board voted 4-0 in favor of the move. It acted only a few hours after a federal judge issued a temporary restrain- ing order handcuffing a state legis- lative committee which had seized control of the 95,000-pupil school system. One board member was absent. At the capital in Baton Rouge, Chairman Frank Voelker of the State Sovereignty Commission held a secret strategy meeting with his commission. Also attending were the Joint Legislative Committee on Segre- gation, and the District Attorneys Association. "We discussed the whole situa- tion from top to bottom," Voelker )said after the meeting. "We'll be meeting some more tomorrow, but not all this group, though." He said the school board's inte- gration action "was not entirely unanticipated." There was no other comment. Gov. Jimmie Davis also had no comment. Wright later signed another temporary restraining order. It prohibits all Louisiana district at- torneys, sheriffs, mayors, police chiefs and state officials from arresting or instituting any crimi- nal proceedings against United States marshals and other state officials in the performance of their duties. United States Attorney Hepburn Many brought the action to pro- tect marshals attempting to serve state officials with the restraining order. A new segregation law makes it a crime to serve a cita- tion connected with an integration order. Late Ballots Retain Lead Of Kennedy WASHINGTON () - A late trickle of returns from Tuesday's election yesterday continued the razor-thin popular vote edge be- tween president - elect John F. Kennedy and his vanquished Re- publican rival, Vice - President Richard M. Nixon. This was the count when 163,745 precincts out of the total of 166,072 had reported: Kennedy 33,541,548 (50.2 per cent); Nixon 33,232,508 (49.8 per cent). Kennedy led in 23 states with 332 electoral votes; Nixon in 26 states with 191; needed to win 269. Two Indefinite In the electoral vote count only California (32 votes) and Alaska (3) were still not definite; Ken- nedy was leading in California and Nixon in Alaska, for a Ken- nedy edge of 332 to 191 in the electoral total. Even if California finally switched to Nixon, Kennedy would still be the winner with 300 electoral votes, since it takes but 269 to win. The popular vote was the tight- est in any election since 1888 when Republican Benjamin Harrison won an electoral vote victory even though his popular vote fell more than 100,000 behind that of Demo- crat Grover Cleveland. Allowing for minor party votes, not yet tabulated in most states, and still - to-be - counted absentee ballots, it is conceivable that Ken- nedy might wind up with less than a majority of the popular vote, and still be elected. Absentees Remain There may be as many a half a million absentee ballots still to be counted. Ten states have ab- sentee ballots to be tabulated. The ten: California. Missouri, Florida, Washington, Kansas, Maryland, Nebraska, North Dakota, Pennsyl- vania and Rhode Island. These states have a total of 127 electoral votes but only in four, with a total of 64 electoral votes, did there seem to be even an outside chance of changing the outcome. IQC Passes Dorm Plan The Inter - Quadrangle Council last night established an associ- cate membership program for men who do not live in the residence halls. The plan, which will go into effect next September, provides that any freshman who has been1 given permission not to live in residence halls may become an associate member of a House. Except in rare instances the only freshmen who would be eligible for such a program would live in Ann Arbor with their parents. Men who have lived in the house at one time and are now living elsewhere may also attain associ- ate membership but would not be able to play on house teams in intra-mural athletics. Otherwise they could participate in house programs and social functions at the disgression of the individual houses. The only debate on the plan centered on House dues. IQC de- cided that the individual house could determine its own dues for associate members but that quad- rangle and IQC dues must be paid. "This covers all the problem areas," John Hale, assistant dean of men for residence halls said. I --AP Wirephoto PRESS CONFERENCE-During his first formal press conference, President-Elect John F. Kennedy answers newspapermen's barrage of questions. At the conference he accepted President Eisenho'w- er's invitation for an early meeting to arrange an orderly transfer of government power. The con- ference took place in Hyannis, Massachusetts, National Guard Armory. STATE DEPARTMENT TO PAY: Symphony Band to Tour Europe 'Kennedy, Ike To Consuli By CAROLINE DOW The State Department has for- mally invited the University Sym- phony Band to make an all ex- pense paid good-will tour of the Soviet Union, the satellite coun- tries and certain Mediterranean nations during the spring semester of this year, bands conductor William D. Revelli reported yes- terday. A formal acceptance will be forwarded to Washington as soon as clarification and understanding can be achieved on several points, Prof. A3evelli said. Although subject to a few de- tails, permission for the 110 member co-ed band to make the tour has been granted by a com- mittee made up of James B. Wal- lace, dean of the Music School, Vice-president for student affairs James A. Lewis and Vice-president for University relations Lyle Nel- son. First Invitation This is the first time a Univer- sity band has been invited to make such a tour by the State Depart- ment. It is to go under the State Department's "President's Inter- national Program for Cultural Exchange Presentation." Prof. Revelli said the State De- Council To Induct Five Members Student Government Council will meet at 4:15 p.m. today to seat its five newly-elected members. Nominations for Council officers will also be in order, with elec- tions to take place at the regular meeting next Wednesday. On Presdential Transf e partment would assume all costs of the trip as it did for similar tours of the Boston and Philadel- phia Symphony Orchestras and the American Ballet Company. Students making the tour will probably lose an academic semes- ter, although an arrangement for some credit is being worked on. "I doubt if the band members Dela Decision, To Legislate On Sales Tax LANSING, WP)-Michigan's gov- ernor and his successor yesterday postponed their decision on wheth- er to call the legislature into spe- cial session to raise the state sales tax. Gov. G. Mennen Williams and Governor-Elect John B. Swainson met for the first time since the election yesterday and spent two hours mulling over problems Swainson will inherit officially on the first of the year. They agreed to wait until Wil- liams returns late this month from a trip to South America be- fore deciding on a special session. Williams pointed out that voter approval of the state sales tax from three to four cents will not take effect until Dec. 8. Their final decision will be based in part on a new survey of the state's economic situation, tax revenues, local financial problems and other financial matters, Wil- liams said. could carry a full semester load, however." "I think this is a wonderful op- portunity for the band and a real tribute to the School of Music," Nelson said. The band has the opportunity to further inter- national relations through United S t a t e.s Government officially sponsored cultural exchanges," he continued. "Its my own personal feeling that international cultural ex- change is the greatest avenue of improving relationships between peoples," Nelson concluded. "I wish to express my apprecia- tion to the Administration of this University and its faculty and students for their continued sup- port and co-operation, which has contributed greatly to this in- vitation," Prof. Revelli said. Expresses Appreciation "My appreciation also goes to the State Department for this recognition. I am hopeful that this tour, should it materialize, will make a profound contribution toward better international rela- tions," Prof. Revelli said. Heath Bowman, of the Depart- ment of State's Bureau of Educa- tional and Cultural Affairs, ex- tended the official invitation. He thanked University officials, Prof. Revellii and student band mem- bers for making it possible for the band to go. "It is our strong belief that such tours are of inestimable im- portance today in our cultural relations with other countries, and the University should take pride in its participation on this endeavor. It is a favor indeed to all citizens of our country," Bowman con- cluded. Two Agree. T RIn K ey Posts,_,,, Hoover, CIA Head, Accede to Request Of President-Elect HYANNiS PORT, Mass. P President-elect John F. Kennedy quickly accepted yesterday an in- vitation for an early meeting with President Dwight D. Eisenhower to arrange an orderly transfer of government power. Kennedy disclosed this at a swiftly-paced news conference at which he named Clark M. Clifford, Washington lawyer, and former special counsel to President Harry S. Truman, as his representative in co-ordinating arrangements. Two Accede , And, in rapid-fire succession, he told reporters in the crowded Na. tional Guard Armory in this Cape Cod community that both J. Edgar Hoover, long-timedirector of the Federal Bureau of Investigation, and Allen W. Dulles, director of the Central Intelligence Agency, have acceded to his personal re- quest that they stay on in those key jobs. Kennedy picked Theodore Soren- son of Lincoln, Neb., a key figure in his victorious campaign organi- zation, for the coveted role of special counsel to the president. lans Flight And he said he will fly to Palm Beach, Fla., today for a vacation to be interrupted briefly next Thursday for a flight to Johnson City, Texas, to ponfer;with Sen. Lyndon B. Johnson, his vice-presi. dent-elect. Kennedy made political history -by announcing the appointment of a Negro, Andrew P. Hatcher of San Francisco, to serve as Associ- ate Press Secretary at the White House. Hatcher's appointment was announced along with the widely- forecast selection of Pierre Salin- ger, his campaign press chief, to succeed James C. Hagerty as White House press secretary. While Kennedy told reporters he is not ready to announce his choice of Secretary of State or other cabinet officers, he desig- nated Clifford, who played a lead- ing role in the Truman adminis- tration, to arrange with persons "all meetings of the executive de- partments and representatives of the next administration." Paratroopers Seize Control In Viet Nam WASHINGTON (JP) -United States officials said last night re- ports from Viet Nam indicate an army coup has forced the resig- nation of President Ngo Dinh Diem. The reports are considered by American authorities to be true. The army coup apparently was led by a 28-year-old United States trained officer, Maj. Du Quoc Dong, in command of the First Paratroop Battalion in Saigon. The action bore a marked simi- larity to the Aug. 9 coup in Laos, led by paratroop Capt. Kong Le, which led to the upset of the pro- Western government in Laos. The reports received here indi- cate that the presidential palace in Saigon ha3 been taken over by the leaders of the coup. The action apparently came as a total surprise. Viet Nam army forces have been fighting a series of jungle skirm- ishes with battalion-sized units of the Communist Viet Nam guer- rillas in the high plateau area northeast of Saigon and along the Viet Nam-Laos border. The situation in Saigon, the capital, had been reported rela- tively quiet. Hayes To Discuss YoUtl Corns Plan NOW PERMANENT OCCUPATION: Brothers Four Started Singing Just for Fun' By JUDITH SATTLER "We adapt our music from folk music, to make it more widely acceptable," said Dick Foley, of the Brothers Four, who appeared last night in Hill Auditorium. The singing group demonstrated this adaptation backstage after the performance, by playing and singing their own, fast-moving ar- rangement of "Green Pastures" just after a visiting girl folksinger had sung it in a slow, mournful style. The Brothers Four first began singing for fun, during Rush Week at their fraternity at the University of Washington. Engagements for a few local campus functions followed, and then a job in a Seattle nightclub. Their break came when they auditioned, and got a job, at the "hungry I" in San Francisco, in April, 1959. They had auditioned more as a joke than as a serious application for a job. While playing at the "hungry I," the group was heard by a man .: k:>::::.;
