The ,committee began its study when the Development Council did not accept the report of a joint subcommittee, representing both the association and the council. After the earlier plan had been prepared, the council raised the question last fall of whether the plan had the backing of the Univer- sity.

TIRRELL association report COMMUNISM : Hit Dod e On Training WASHINGTON (A')-The Army's information chief, Maj. Gen. Charles G., Dodge, underwent a drumfire of quizzing yesterday by Sen, Strom Thurmond (D-SC), who sharply criticized the Army's efforts to teach troops about Com- munism. Among other things, Thurmond told Dodge the teaching is being attempted by officers and enlist- ed men who were not tiained in intelligence or psychological war- fare. The senator said his staff inves- tigators found "a few good pro- grams" but many sadly deficient ones. This lack of proper training, he said, has "lost us critical battles in the cold war," including the defection of some prisoners of war. 'Namby-Pamby' Dodge, who only recently took over the Army information job handling press-broadcast relations and troop training, was the main witness before a Senate Armed Services Subcommittee. The group is looking into charges that troop indoctrination into the ways of Communism is "namby-pamby." For more than an hour during the questioning, Thurmond, a re- serve major general who sparked the investigation, was the only senator present. Dodge presented a thick folder of posters, pamphlets, newspapers and directives used in the Army indoctrination program. He said it is constantly being improved. Triple Number He said the two new Army di- visions being formed would have about triple the number of infor- mation officers and that this would become Army-wide policyJ - eventually. Dodge added that getting prop- erly trained information officers is a continuing problem for the Army. Chairman John Stennis (D- Miss) told the general "I'm en- couraged by your testimony." Thurmond's lengthy questioning of Dodge drew a brief protest from Stennis, who said Thurmond was asking questions "it is just incon- ceivable to me" how the general could answer. Sen. Leverett Sal tonstall (R-Mass) joined in, say- ing "we are cluttering up our record terribly." Creal Agrees To Hold Talks' tions Michael Radock. Three of the administration committee's recommendations are in agreement with three of the original 11 joint subcommittee proposals. These are: 1) That the Development Coun- cil Board of Directors include greater representation from the Alumni Association and that the Chairman or Vice-Chairman of the council become an ex-officio member of the Alumni Associa- tion'sBudget and Finance Com- mittee. Fund Raising 2) That responsibility for all fund-raising activities be centered in the development council. 3) That all fund raising which is directed at alumni be coordi- nated with the Alumni Association and utilize its structure. A proposal that no new annual alumni funds be organized on be- half of schools, colleges, and other special units without the approval of both the council and the asso- ciation, the administration's re- port said that this would give the association power to veto which would deny the council's basic re- sponsibility. Oppose Proposals Three proposals regarding fi- nancing of the association and the council were also opposed and further study is being made of workable alternatives. The administration's report made minor changes and reserva- tions in its discussion of the re- maining four proposals, including a strong recommendation that the executive committees of the two groups hold joint meetings at least twice ,a year. Both Alumni Association Gen- eral Secretary John E. Tirrell and Development Council Director Alan W. MacCarthy commended the administration committee on its effort. Joint Meetings "The joint meetings and greater representation by the association should do more than anything else to get cooperation between the two organizations," McCarthy said. Tirrell praised "the very sincere effort" made by Radock to resolve the conflict. Hatcher Goes On Ford Tour University President H a r I a n Hatcher and Mrs. Hatcher leave today on a month-long tour of Venezuela and Peru for the Ford Foundation. Assigned to investigate the pos- sibilities of fund assistance in the educational programs in those countries, the President will be gone until April 10. Touring with him will be rep- resentatives of Brookings Institute and the Brooklyn Polytechnic In- stitute. They will survey universities, research institutes, government agencies and private organizations concerned with economic and so- cial development. By KENNETH WINTER Three students who played a large role in the birth of the Office of Student Affairs Study Committee have expressed vary- ing degrees of satisfaction-and dissatisfaction-with the group's recommendations. Two of them were members of the Human Relations Board, who, along with last year's Daily senior editors, submitted a report to the Faculty's Student Relations Board in the winter of 1960 which aired student complaints with the OSA and touched off the recent re-evaluations of the office. The third was one of the editors. Mary Wheeler, '64L, expressed satisfaction with the Reed Committee's suggestions. "Generally, I'm very pleased with it. We weren't sure, when we started, that we were going to be able to get anything even approaching what the Reed committee finally came up with. What we've got here is machinery with which we can do a lot. In itself, the report isn't too much, but there is much there we can work with. However, I think it's im- portant that people realize that there is still a lot of work to be done.". Dim View Bart Burkhalter, Grad, chairman of the group, took a dimmer view of the report. "The committee had a chance really to do something revolutionary, and instead it just muddled around with what already existed and changed it. Instead of coming out with a challenging new concept in higher education, it played around with the same old ideas, and tended just to rearrange things," he said. "I see the University as a changing University. You can set up things now to go into effect, but ten years from now there will be different kinds of problems. In their -choice of structure, it seems to me they haven't allowed enough opportunity for fluctuation to meet changes. They've suggested something rigid that doesn't allow for expansion or contraction," Burk- halter added. "As long as they're going through this wrenching period anyway, when everything is cracking, they shouldn't set up a new concrete structure that they'll have to crack to get rid of," he continued. "One of my greatest arguments with the report is that they haven't put these suggestions in the form of suggested bylaw changes. However, Burkhalter added that the committee's suggestions, if implemented, would be "a step in the right direction." Philosophy, Means Former Daily Associate City Editor Kenneth McEldowney, '62, found fault primarily in the relationship between the ex- pressed philosophy of the committee and the proposed means to carry it out. "The philosophy is meaningless unless it can be effectively exercised through a structure, and I think the proposed structure is completely inadequate to exercise the philosophy," he charged. Emphasize Personnel Miss Wheeler emphasized personnel rather than structure. "What happens is going to depend on whether or not they continue just to replace people with others in the administration or whether they decide to pull people in from other places. If they do this, there should be a definite standard to use in selecting new people, and they should ask students to help in setting up these criteria," she said. Burkhalter and McEldowney doubted that the proposed structure would eliminate the inconsistencies between the hand- ling of men's and women's administration by the OSA. "The whole idea of the Dean of Students and the Associate Dean of Students is really the Dean of Men and the Dean of Women," Burkhalter charged. See HRB, Page 2 ".44 .

PassPlans For Medical Institutions By JUDITH BLEIER A $750 million program of fed- eral , aid to medical and dental schoo~ls was approved by the H o u s e CommercedCommittee Thursday. I The funds from the administra- tion - backed program would be used for construction and for fed- eral loans to help medical and dental students. The program would replace a $177 million scholarship program proposed by President John F. Kennedy. The committee vote on the 10- year program was 19-6. Prof. William Mann of the den- tal school, director of the Kellogg Foundation Institute, noted that money for construction is badly needed by the dental school. The proposal, if enacted, could be of great assistance to the school, which is planning to ex- pand and remodel its facilities, he said. Dean William Hubbard of the medical school said that the sub- stitution of loans instead of schol- arships "marks a real step for- ward.'' "I am delighted that this pro- gram, which the medical school has strongly supported from the beginning, has been reported fav- orably out of committee," he re- marked. CONSTITUTION, BY-LATWS: League ApI By DENISE WACKER The MichiganrLeague Council has approved revisions in the League's constitution and by-laws designed to allow the organization to meet better the needs of wom- en at the University, League Pres- ident Bea Nemlaha, '62, said yes- terday. The changes are primarily, in the structure of League commit- tees. Other changes affect its training program and the position of Women's Senate. "The (former) constitution and by-laws had included too much de- tail and tended somewhat to rig- idify the League organization. It became increasingly apparent that changes were necessary to mod- ernize the League," Miss Nemlaha said. Change Committees The League Board of Governors, who had considered and executed the changes, decided to drop the Special Projects and House Com- mittees. "The project committee's func- tions were quite ambiguous. It was sort of a catch-all committee. In its place a new committee is be- ing set up to give an educational- cultural thrust to the League," she added. The House Committee had been responsible for communication with the administrators of the League, and for decorating{ the building. In place of the commit- tee, the executive vice-president will act as a liaison to the busi- proves Structure Change ness staff. "This change parallels, to some degree, the communica- tions-system in the Union," she said. Training Program "We also drew up a new fresh- man training program and added the position of personnel director in order to have smoother internal relations. "Formerly the training program consisted of 'Burocrats,' which was a sort of Junior League, work- ing on its own projects, but not really being trained in working for, or knowing, the League. "Now the personnel director will organize girls in the fall. They'll have a chance to work on com- mittees and to learn about the relation of the League to the oth- er women's groups on campus,.' Miss Nemlaha said. Women's Council In place of the recently-dis- banded Women's Senate, the Women's Conference has been es- tablished. Its membership will consist of either the Assembly Dor- mitory Council or the Assembly Presidents' Council, and also the Panhellenic Presidents' Council. It is to be chaired by the presi- dent of the League (since she is "neutral" to the problems of As- sembly and Panhel) and is to meet whenever the Women's Con- ference Committee, composed of the presidents of the three organi- zations and the chairman of Women's Judic, think it neces- sary, or whenever a majority of the members of the council votes to meet. The Women's Senate, disbanded last December, was a standing body designed to aid communica- tion between the various women's organizations. The new group will have similar functions, but will not meet regularly. Council W For Public Students Could Escape 'Double By MICHAE Joint Judiciary Council has which would bring its operatin the 'due process' guaranteed b If adopted, the new proce offer witnesses on his behalf, e I dent advisor" and have his c would also avoid 'double jeop for admissible evidence. Joint Judic Chairman Rob terday that the new policies w student judiciaries into rigid' legalistic bodies, but because we feel there are educa- tional values attached to these changes." New Policy Berger indicated that imple- mentation of the new policy would probably not result in major oper- ational changes. "Our past ex- perience indicates that few stu- dents will take advantage of these policies changes, but we feel they are an important theoretical re- vision." The new policy, which will be formalized by joint judic soon, would be implemented in bylaw changes for the organization. The bylaws can only be changed by a two-thirds vote of the council and approval by the three man Facul- ty Subcommittee on Discipline. Detailing the policy, Berger said that a minimum of two witnesses could testify in person before the council or submit written state- ments on' behalf of the accused student. More would be permitted if the student and Joint Judic felt it necessary. Subject to Questioning The witnesses would be subject to questioning by the council, but their testimony would not be used against them in any cases. A public hearing would be auto- matically granted if the involved student requestt one. At any time in the proceedings, the student could ask that the audience leave. The council would also retain the right to close the hearing if the audience obstructed the council's work. Deliberations and decision mak- ing, however, would be held in a closed session attended only by council membersaand the official advisors from the dean of men and dean of women's offices. Consult Administrator Each week, a Judic member would consult with the adminis- trative officer who refers cases to the council. He would go over the cases and help the dean decide where each case should be han- dled. "The decision, however, would still be the dean's to make," Berger stressed. This student would not partici- pate in Joint Judic's deliberations of the cases he helped consult on, but would act as an advisor to the studentsainvolved. "Therad- visor could tell the student how to prepare for his hearing, what questions the council might ask and what rights and responsibili- ties he had." Not Fine Students Eliminating 'double penaliza- tion,' future councils would not fine a student if the civil courts had already levied a monetary punishment against him or sus- pended a fine. "This doesn't mean that we won't ask the student to appear before judic or hear his case. If he is guilty of violating a Uni- versity regulation or his conduct See JOINT, Page 2 SUVC Submits Report on OSA The University Senate Student ould Allow Hearings Bring Witnesses, Jeopardy' Policy EL OLINICK proposed major policy change. g procedures more in line witl y civil courts. dure would allow a student tc mploy the assistance of a "stu- ase heard in public session.

Power of Ann Arbor was elected the .first permanent chair- man of the Michigan Coordinating Council for Public Higher Educa- tion Thursday as the group met at the Kellogg Center at Michigan 'State University. Power has spearheaded the for- mation of the council from its in- ception last fall as a counter-move against pressures to place all state- supported colleges under a general coordinating unit.. The council itself is a voluntary association. Met Informally The group met informally in the morning with legislators compris- ing the House Committee on Ways and Means, Rep. Arnell E. Eng- strom (R-Traverse City) and the Sentate Committee on Appropria- tions, Sen. Elmer R. Porter (R- Blissfleld) chairman. Majority Senate Cauers Chair- man Frank D. Beadle (R-St. Clair) told the educators that any appro- priations increases would require more taxes "and you'll have to sell the people on that." Sen. Philip 0. Rahoi (D-Iron Mountain )then loosed a blast at the GOP as "too conservative. They don't want to spend any money." 'Spread It Around' Porter retorted, Rahoi claimed, that "Democrats take all the money they can get and spread it around." He added that the Republicans "started a non-partisan discussion on appropriations and needs. He turned it into a political battle." Porter walked out in the middle of Rahoi's remarks, followed by Senators Arthur H. Dehmel (R- Unionville), Lloyd A. Stephens (R- Scotville), Garland Lane (D-Flint) and Beadle.
