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 May 29. 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. Name Pollock To Egypt Post Prof. James K. Pollock of the political science department will serve as a consultant to the Egyp-' tian government at its specific re- quest after the constitutional con- vention, to which he is a delegate, ends. Prof. Polhock said he expects to leave the United States around May 15 and spend about a month n Egypt on a confidential project. le will be accompanied by Luth- pr Gulick, director of the Institute r t Public Administration, who gave the William Cook Lectures here in March, 1961. Gulick was also specifically re- quested by tue Egyptian govern- rxerat. By DENXSE WACKER Charged with denying faculty members "due academic free- dom," South Dakota State Col- lege and the Alabama State College were added to the cen- sure list of the American As- sociation of University Profes- sors at the AAUP national con- vention held in Chicago last week.

The association studied com- mittee reports on faculty sal- ary schedules and the relation- ships between administration and faculty in various schools. 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- fessors attending the conven- tion. Prof. Ralph A.

The report is expected to be the culmination of the committee's in- vestigation of the fraternity's membership regulations, recently altered by a clause waiver granted. by the national. The committee's 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. Daily Motion At the meeting an attempt will be made to take the Ross on the Daily motion off the table. A ma- jority vote is necessary. If the attempt is successful How- ard Abrams, '63, will introduce a series of amendments to the Ross Claim Stahr May Take Post LOUISVILLE (.) - Trustees of Indiana University have picked Secretary of the Army Elvis J. Stahr, Jr. to be president of the school, the Courier-Journal said last night. The newspaper, in a story in to- day's editions, said Stahr, 46, was selected at a trustees' meeting last weekend. proposal. He will ask that the first paragraph of the Ross motion be changed to emphasize that The Daily is the only newspaper ser- ing the campus and, therefore, has an obligation to preserve editorial freedom. "The transgression of editorial freedom, by either the Senior Edi- tors or the Board in Control of Student Publications would be a grave disservice to the University community," the substitute para- graph reads. Abrams' amendment concludes with a statement asking that ap- pointments be made on the basis of technical ability, rather than the list of criteria presented in the Ross motion. It calls for continued public statement from the Board if it rejects the senior editor's recom- mendations, and for continued Daily-Board negotiations. Homecoming Change The Council will also consider a motion on the restructuring of Homecoming, which was post- poned last week. Non - Council member appointments to standing committees will be made. At 9:20 p.m. the Council will temporarily adjourn to view "Op- eration Correction," a Council- sponsored movie from the Ameri- can Civil Liberties Union, which will be shown in the Michigan Union Ballroom at 9:30 p.m. Asks Bonding For College 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 we seek and insist on orderly , e ,nd ntius hna o Ford Notes Social Change After French Revolution The French Revolution struck a series of blows to the whole con- cept of a society divided in orders, Prof. Franklin Ford said yester- day in a lecture on "Europe Before and After the French Revolution -Some Latter-Day Reflections." Prof. Ford reviewed economic and political aspects of the eras of the Old Regime, the Revolution and the Restoration. In pre-1789 society social categories were defined in strictly legal terms and the only ones recognized as acceptable were orders ores- ' tates, the major ones being clergy, nobility, bourgeoise and peasant.

By PATRICIA O'CONNOR 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- touble retaining themselves, Ford explained. There were internally varied, lacked real political con- 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 party,-lines.
