The Ann Arbor Democratic party at an open meeting las
night approved a strong endorsement of the rent strike. Th
Democrats also condemned the conspiracy suit brough
against the rent strike steering committee "as an attack o
the legitimate right to organize a democratic union."
The party also endorsed the California grape boycott an
elected a new chairman. Walter Scheider, current part
leader, won re-election over third ward chairman Tomn
Murray.
In approving the resolution backing the rent strike, th

The turnout, about 75.6 per dent
of the city's 1,127,224 registered
voters, was an obvious help for
Yorty in a city with a 15 to 20 per,

Supporters of Bradley said they

blacks live.
They claimed the card said

Although the proposed capital
outlay bill is $1.8 million less than
the governor's recommendation
for the University, University of-!
ficials have registered approval of
the recommendation that $4.9
million be allocated to University
capital projects in the coming
year.
"We are encouraged that the
University's pressing needs for
classrooms, offices, and laborator-
ies in major academic areas have
been recognized by the Senate
Appropriations Committee," says
Arthur M. Ross, vice president for!
planning and state relations.
"It's been years since a state-
supported building for academic
needs outside of the health area
was authorized," he adds.
Except for construction in the
health science area, there has been
no state appropriations for aca-
demic facilities since the early
1960's. In those years, funds for
the School of Music Bldg., the
Physics and Astronomy Bldg., and
the Fluids Engineering Laboratory
were authorized by the legislature.

An authorization implies intent!
to allocate funds in the future, but s
does not bind the legislature toi
do so. The authorization, however,
is a sign that the lawmakers rec-
ognize the need to construct theE
building.
The proposed bill of the Senate
Appropriations Committee allo-
cates construction money for six!
University projects.r
The bill, reported to the SenateE
floor Monday, contains $2 milliont
for the Modern Language Bldg. tot
be constructed north of Hill Aud.
The six-story building will cost
an estimated $6.3 million when1
completed. The state has prom-t
ised to pay up to $5.3 million

The resolution was passed with
a final amendment by Peter Dar-
row, local attorney and parlia-
mentarian at last night's meet-
ing, which claimed that "over the
years the University has abdicated
its responsibility in housing."
The endorsed resolution com-

cal year, Ross says, the University
will seek a supplemental appro-
priation to start construction.
Both the departments of Art
and Architecture have been warn-
ed bystheir respective accrediting
groups that improvements must
be made if the departments are to
remain in good standing.
The proposal also authorizes $2
million forcontinuation of work
on the $17 million School of Dent-
istry Bldg. The state has agreed
to finance $11 million of that
building.
Construction started on the
Dental Bldg. in March, 1966.
The bill also provides for $500
thousand to remodel the Women's
Hospital in . University Hospital,
and to provide a neurosurgery op-
erating room for the main hos-
pital.
The Senior Medical Staff in
1964 made strong recommenda-
tions for the immediate addition
of 500 beds to the present main
hospital. These two new authori-
zations are part of long-range
plansforha proposed Medical Cen-
ter which would include the new
500 bed general hospital.
It is anticipated that federal
support will be available for par-
ticipation in the cost of this pro-
ject, Ross says-
The proposed capital outlay bill
also includes $120 thousand to
complete, renovation of the eleva-
tors in University Hospital, a job
costing $1,620,000.
A separate bill authorizes the
Budget Bureau in the governor's
office to assign funds for prelimi-
nary planning of four new Uni-
versity buildings without specify-
ing costs.
These would include a chemistry
building, an engineering building,
and two buildings at Flint College.

The ad hoc committee drafting new Regental bylaws
decided yesterday to submit its bylaw draft to Student Gov-
ernment Council and Senate Assembly despite lack of con-
sensus among committee members themselves.
The committee, which had intended to hold its final
meeting yesterday, will meet again Monday at 9 a.m. to com-
plete work on the bylaws. Later, it will simultaneously make
the draft public to the University community and submit it

Last year's expenditure limita-
tion was $6.4 million, which forced
-researchers to withhold about $1.5
million for the future.
"The notice from the NSF is
not very helpful. We have no idea
what the ceiling will be and in a
sense it tells us that your guess
is as good as ours," Norman says.
He adds that the ceiling may
not be set until September, well
into the fiscal year.
The ceiling will depend on

Congress, Norman says. It may
not appropriate enough money to
the NSF or it; may give President
Richard Nixon an expenditure
ceiling for his entire budget,
The latter course would force
the bureau of the budget to im-
pose limitationshon several pro-

Certain programs have been ex-
empted from ceilings, however.
These include individual fellow-
ships and travel awards, trainee-
ships awarded to institutions and
short courses and summer insti-
tutions for college teachers.
Norman says this year the Uni-!
versity "funded the traineeship
program 100% anyway." "We put
all funds1from NSF earmarked
for trainees toward trainees," he
explains.+
"It would be very unfair to cut'
traineeship appointments since
they are made for spring of the
following year," Norman says.
"The salaries are low anyway."

' Sumnmer fun finds
a new 'Alternative'
By SCOTT MIXER
After nearly a year of red tape and ever-changing plans, there
is an Alternative.
The student-faculty run coffee house has found a temporary home
in the courtyard of the Student Activities Bldg. and the opening is
scheduled for Friday, June 6.
The Carnal Kitchen, now at Canterbury House, will be at the
coffee house for an all-night jam session to celebrate the grand
opening.
Temporary location in the SAB came as a result to problems which
developed after the Alternative was scheduled to move into a room
at the Union.

native's originators says attempts to locate in the Union were ham-
