But academician A. A..Blagonravov indicated that Russia would
not try a manned mission to the moon before next year at the
earliest. In a report to a meeting of space scientists from 18 coun-
tries, he indicated that the Russians would attempt new manned

A plea for the college president to reassert his educational lead-

Battle Erupts
In Portugal1
LISBON (A') - Workers called
out by the Communist under-a
ground battled with police and
troops in Portugal's two largestr
cities yesterday in the most vio-
lent anti-government demonstra-
tions in years.-
The Salazar government
claimed that the fighting in Lis-
bon and Oporto to the north wasf
part of a general Communist plan
for uprisings throughout the coun-
try.
In downtown Lisbon, workers
fought with police and troops for
more than three hours. Hundreds
of police swinging clubs and shoot-
ing rifles in the air scattered an
estimated 2,500 demonstrators at-
tempting to hold an anti-govern-1
ment rally in Blackhorse Square.
At least 17 demonstrators and
two policemen were reported hos-
pitalized. Dozens of demonstrat-
ors were taken to jails in Lisbon.
Scattered acts of violence con-
tinued through the night.
At Oporto, the nation's second
largest city175 miles northeastE
of this capital, police with clubs
charged crowds in the center of
the city. Eight persons were re-
ported hospitalized and 50 arrest-1
ed.
"The city looks like an armed
camp," said an eyewitness.
Gary Clinches
Runoff Spot
In Primary
WASHINGTON (P) - Former
Gov. Raymond Gary clinched a
spot in Oklahoma's primary runoff
election test last night in his bid
to become the first man to serve
two terms as governor.
Four other Democrats were
locked in a battle to oppose him
May 22 for the nomination.
But in Alabama, a state senator
and a former judge were running
ahead of James E. Folsom, another
ex-governor trying for a comeback.
State Sen. Ryand Degraffenreid,
running his first statewide race,
pulled ahead of former State
Judge George Wallace, a militant
segregationist who preached defi-
ance of federal courts.
Henry Bellmon, a wheat farmer
from Red Rock, overwhelmed
token opposition to win the Re-
publican gubernatorital nomina-
tion in Oklahoma.
Oklahoma Sen. Mike Monroney
virtually clinched the Democratic
nomination for a third senate term
without a runoff.
Sen. Lister Hill appeared headed
for renomination, for a seventh
term in Alabama. He was running
far ahead of two opponents.
The Alabama primary featured
a novel plan for reducing the
state's delegation in the House
from nine to eight because of the
1960 census. The legislature, un-
able to agree on a redistricting
plan, decided to nominate nine
men-one in each of the old dis-
tricts-and have them run in a
statewide, low - man - out runoff

versities to appoint "eminent pub-
lic figures" to the post who do not
have qualifications for the kind of
leadership it requires.
After a three-year study of col-
lege campuses throughout the
country, financed by the Carnegie
Foundation, Dodds found that
"even the most educationally
minded president faces a constant
struggle against becoming en-
meshed in a network of support-
ing activities - business manage-
ment, public relations, fund rais-
ing."
Strong Subordinates
"Escape from entrapment lies in
finding strong subordinates to
whom to delegate the widest dis-
cretion." He suggests that the
president be supplied with a more
adequate staff to carry on the
many secondary administrative
activities.
According to University Presi-
dent Harlan Hatcher, the Univer-
sity is well on its way toward im-
plementing this kind of program
and some of the other large uni-
versities are following its direction.
The admiinstrative jobs have.
been delegated extensively to the
president's co-workers, he said.
There is a vice-president in
charge of business and finance,
and a vice-president for academic
affairs who handles the problems
and needs of the faculty. The ex-
ecutive vice-president works close-
ly with the president and is able
to fill in for him when he is out
of town, President Hatcher ex-
plained.
More Requests
President tcher said that he
receives many more requests to
make apppearances than he is able
to fulfill. There are certain things
which take priority and require
his personal attention, but the
other matters are often aptly
handled by his colleagues.
"The many additional responsi-
bilities faced by the president to-
day that his predecessors did not
have to bother with come from
four major areas," President
Hatcher said.
Demands for an increase in en-
rollment and facilities are con-
stantly being made, the opening
up of new areas of knowledge has
created a need for reorganization
of the faculty and expansion of
the curricula, the federal govern-
ment is asking the University for
more research, and accommoda-
tions must be made for the large
enrollment of foreign students, he
explained.

Freedom of Prime Concern
"The AAUP is first concerned
with the academic freedom of
professors-their right to ex-
press what they feel- and with
their right to tenure, or job
security," Prof. George Peek of
the political science department
said.
Prof. Peek, president of the
local chapter of the AAUP, was
one of three University pro-

CONSIDER STATUS:
SGC To Receive Report on Sigma Nu
By GAIL EVANS
Student Government Council's
Committee on Membership will
make recommendations concern-
ing the status of Sigma Nu fra-
ternity at tonight's meeting, Coun-

The report is expected to be the

original statement referred back
to the group by Council for re-
consideration after Sigma Nu re-
ceived the waiver. Thomas Brown,
'63E, treasurer, will also introduce
the new budget for 1962-63, which
makes no major changes in Coun-
cil financing, he indicated.

At the meeting an attempt will
be made to take the Ross on the

paragraph of the Ross motion be
changed to emphasize that The

"The transgression of editorial

grave disservice to the University
community," the substitute para-
graph reads.
Abrams' amendment concludes
with a statement asking that ap-

of technical ability, rather than

Ross motion. It calls for continued
public statement from the Board if
it rejects the senior editor's recom-

Construction
Proposal Suggests
New Revenue Usage
To Reduce Deficit
By DAVID MARCUS
Sen. Carlton H. Morris (R-Kala-
mazoo) proposed to the Senate
yesterday an $83 million nuisance
tax package that would include
a $150 million capital outlay bond-
ing plan for higher education.
Morris had proposed his plan
originally at the beginning of the
legislative session and hearings
with officials of Michigan univer-
sities were held. The proposal
would allow $25 million a year for
new construction. The balance of
the tax package revenues would
be used to pay the state's debt.
Univer ity Executive Vice-Presi-
dent Marvin L. Niehuss said al-
though University officials have
not yet studied the details of yes-
terday's proposal that early in the
year the original plan was a
"workable proposal."
Give Start
"It would give us a start on the
capital outlay we need"
Sen. Clyde H. Geerlings (R-
Holland) urged "consideration" of
the Morris proposal. Geerlings,
chairman of the taxation com-
mittee discharged by the coalition
of Republican moderates and
Democrats in the unsuccessful at-
tempt to pass an income tax, said
he would move today that all taxa-
tion measures be returned tothe-
tax committee for study.
Geerlings said that the Senate
would probably finish considera-
tion of tax proposal sometime in
the next two weeks. He added that
at least some of any additional
revenue proposed to the Senate
would go to pay the state's debt.
'Scrutinize Tax'
Sen. Stanley G. Thayer (R-Ann
Arbor), one of the leaders of the
pro-income tax coalition, said, "I
intend to scrutinize any nuisance
tax very carefully.
"They are tiad in theory, but it
is a matter of expediency in order
to give the people of this state the
appropriations needed."
Thayer speculated that the leg-
islature would impose taxes on
telephone and telegraph services,
boost the cigarette and beer taxes,
increase the corporation franchise
fee and inIpose taxes on services
and possibly advertising.
Follows Defeat
Yesterday's move followed Mon-
day night's defeat of a proposed
flat rate income tax. Most of the
moderate Republicans were re-
signed to a nuisance tax package
although some, like Thayer, felt
it would be only a "stopgap meas-
ure"
Thayer noted that many of the
proposed nuisance taxes, especially
the proposed telephone and tele-
graph levy, were "increasing the
burden on business."
Meany Cites
Compromises
In GOP Acts
The principle reason why the
Republican party stands as a de-
feated minority party in Michigan
is that Republicans have compro-
mised their principles and have
failed to fight for the ideals their
party stands for, Edward Meany,
Jr. told a meeting of the Young
Republicans Club last night.
Meany, who is presently seeking
the Republican nomination to the
rUnited States Senate, maintained
that for the past 25 years Repub-
licans have made the mistake of
stating their beliefs in negative
terms, thus giving the impression
that they are "against everything
and for nothing."
In most cases, he said, there has
been no attempt to counteract this
impression and the wide play
which the opposition has given to
ait.
The Republican party does in
fact favor progress, he said, "But

Prof. Ford reviewed economic and political aspects of the eras

A mature attitude, seriousness
of educational purpose, and na-
tive ability sufficient to profit
from selected instruction comprise
the qualifications necessary for
admission to Ferris Institute at
Big Rapids.
Hailing itself as the "opportu-
nity school," Ferris has long been
recognized as providing education-
al opportunity for serious-minded
students regardless of their pre-
vious educational background and
attainment.
No entrance examination exists,
nor are students denied admission
because of prior scholastic per-
formance at other educational in-
stitutions. What the student can
do interests Ferris. Once a stu-
dent is enrolled, however, satisfac-
tory performance becomes imper-

explained. There were internally

tent andaexcluded many people
from their ranks.
Supplementary Categories
Ford suggested some supplemen-
tary categories to clarify the cate-
gory of orders: the categories are
economic groups, status groups
and party groups.
In the Revolutionary period,
there was class struggle beginning
in 1789, as well as political con-
flict.
The aftermath of the Revolu-
tion, the Restoration, at - first
glance suggests great continuity
with pre-1789 France, Ford noted.
Economic Recognition
However, orders and estates
were never again organizing prin-
ciples and new classes were recog-
nized along economic, status and
