$y TOBE LEV
Agents of the Federal Bureau of Investigation searched
for clues yesterday afternoon in the bombing of North Hall,
the 'administrative center and classroom building for tfie
University's ROTC program.
An explosive placed under a staff car parked next to the
building Sunday night detonated, igniting the building and
shattering one wall and several dozen windows.
Deputy Police Chief Harold Olson said yesterday he did
not know what type of explosive had been used, and that
there were no suspects at this time.
-He added that at this point all the police are able to do
is study the area of the bombing to discover what was used
and where it could have been
obtained. a

All three tenants also have
complaints about Kozminski's up-

says there is no certificate of
compliance for her building, which
means there are so many housing
code violations that city code
stipulates the building should not
be open except under special cir-
cumstandes, such as when emer-
gency housing is being provided
for poverty-stricken families.
The three tenants also say they

By NADINE COHODAS
City Council at the request of
Mayor Robert Harris, has taken
the first step toward easing ten-
sions between Ann A r b o r resi-
dents and the police.
At a special meeting Thursday
night council authorized the cre-
ation of an ad hoc committee pro-
posed by Harris to study police-
community relations.
The mayor emphasized that the
committee's existence does not im-
ply lack of confidence in local po-
lice agencies, and City Adminis-
trator Guy Larcom.said the com-
mittee should not be viewed as a
'citizens' review board."
Harris' resolution said, "Recent
local incidents between police and
black citizens indicate that prompt
action to alleviate community
tensions is necessary."
T h e seven-member committee
will study "both t h e immediate
a n d underlying causes of these
tensions" and will make recom-
mendations to council for appro-
priate action.

WASHINGTON (M - T h e
Supreme Court ruled yester-
day that privately operated
public accomodations cannot
practice racial segregation by
calling themselves clubs and
admitting only whites on pay-
ment of a nominal fee.
The 7-1 decision put hundreds
of recreation areas and other f a-
cilities under the ban. But it did
not extend to the last of the all-
white bastions: exclusive social
and country clubs which are de-
finitely private.
The court dealt with Lake Nixon
Club, a privately' operated, 232-
acre am sement area 12 miles west
of Little Rock,Ark. It offers swim-
ming, boating, sunbathing, pic-
nicking; miniature golf, dancing
facilities and a snack bar.
Despite its name and a 25 cent
membership fee, Justice William
J. Brennan Jr. said for the major-
ity, Lake Nixon is not a private
club. "It is simply a business op-
erated for a profit with none of
the attributes of self-government
and member-ownership tradition-
ally associated with private clubs,"
he said.
White people were routinely ad-
mitted and Negroes uniformly kept
out, he said, and the "membership
device seems no more than a sub-
terfuge" designed to avoid cover-
age of the 1964 federal Civil Rights
Law.
The ruling was one of three
major pronouncements by the
high court on civil rights.
Acting unanimously, and with
the Alabama-born Justice Hugo
L.. Black giving the decision, the
court upheld the assignment of
teachers in Montgomery on a ra-
cial basis to help speed integration
of the public schools.
The other civil rights ruling,
by a 7-1 marging With Black dis-
senting, madeitdifficult for seven
states and counties to reimpose
voting literacy tests by saying a
ban in Gaston County, N.C. must
stand.
In a landmark 5-3 decision, the
court gave servicemen the right
to be tried by civil courts--instead
of by military tribunals-for
crimes committed off duty that
have no connection with military
activities.

State Rep. William A. Ryan
(D-Detroit), speaker of the
House, vowed yesterday to re-

"I expect the House will re-

iUniversity officials have said
they cannot avoid a tuition hike

revenues-a gap which admin-

placed by an increase in tuition.

Two White Panthers to face
trials for obscenity charges
By HAROLD ROSENTHAL
The cases of two members of
the White Panther Party charged
with distributing obscene litera-
ture to students in Milan High
School last March were bound
over to Circuit Court last week.
District Judge S. J. Elden order-
ed Skip Taube to appear in Circuit
Court on June 13. Pun Plamon-
don is scheduled to appear on
cials and Dansfield held a -joint
investigation.
Taube said the students had
been told that charges would be
brought against them if they did
not cooperate in the investigation.
Dansfield took the results of his
probe to Prosecuting Attorney
William F. Delhey who authorized
a warrant for the arrest of Taube
and Plamondon.
The White Panther literature,
prosecution had entered as evi-
dence "goes far beyond the limits
set for our basic freedoms."
"This is a case of suppression,"
Taube said. "The police, and
school authorities are suppressing
information and intimidating the
students."
Their biggest objection to the
statement is the fact that it "tells
people how to go about changing
their lives and how things should
