Fewaculty By DENISE WACKER, GERALD STORCH, NEIL COSSMAN. PATRICIA O'CONNOR and ELIZABETH KENYON Despite many offerings from some of the choicest colleges and 'universities in the country to faculty members in nearly every department and school of the University, there were a surprisingly small number of acceptances. Vice-President for Academic Affairs Roger W. Heyns said that the low number of resignations was principally because "until re- cently, the faculty had been optimistic about next year's budget. . . but the optimism has faded in the list 10 days." May Harm Quality Ie expressed confidence that the University will be able to attract and keep a good faculty, "although the University has been cutting back for a number of years. This can't help but mean that some education is not of the proper quality. "There are retirements without replacements, and although there are 2,500 more students now than there were seven years ago, there are actually fewer faculty members," he said. The fears which Heyns expressed over the possibiilty of a decline in the University because of a (numerically) inadequate Resignations Show Support for ' faculty were shared by several department heads. They were concerned because they were unable this year to hire as many faculty members as they feel were necessary for their departments. Elimination of Sections In some instances, it has been necessary to eliminate recita- tion sections and instead substitute large lecture sections for intro- ductory and intermediate courses. Heyns said he feels the University is great and has a great tradition. "but if we continue not to get support, as we did in the past, that tradition may not continue." The following changes in faculty for the coming academic year were reported by deans of University schools and colleges: ANTHROPOLOGY DEPARTMENT The following faculty appointments and leaves were reported by the anthropology department:, Prof. J. N. Spuhler, department chairman for 1962-63. Profes- sors Lesley White and Mischa Titiev will have one-semester leaves of absence next fall.

For a fearful 35 minutes, while he was out of radio contact with the world, it appeared the space operation might be on the verge of a disaster, but the Navy Lieutenant Commander was soon discovered serene and well on a life raft, his Aurora 7 space ship floating nearby. At a post launch news conference the Project Mercury Operations Director, Walter C. Williams, said the overshoot resulted because the spaceship was not in a proper attitude when the braking rockets fired. Williams said it came in at a much shallower angle than planned and instead of being tilted at an angle of 34 degrees to the horizon was actually inclined between 24 and 26 degrees. This, he said, caused *it, in effect to skid along at a less steep re-entry angle. Project Mercury Director Rob- ert Gilruth said it was not certain whether another three-orbit mis- sion will be planned like those of John II. Glenn, Jr., and Carpenter. He said five and seven-orbit flights are under consideration, but added these might be skipped in favor of jumping to the 18 or- bit flights, which will provide an entire day of data on a man in space. Gilruth said no definite deci- sions can be made on the next Mercury flight until Carpenter's data has been reduced. Carpenter now goes to Grand Turk Island in the Bahamas where he will undergo a plhysical examin- MALCOLM S. CARPENTER ation and make a flight report .. back from space over the next 48 hours. Biggest Increases For Out-of-State Plan To Charge Juniors, Seniors More than Freshmen, Sophomores By KENNETH WINTER The Regents have unanimously approved a new tuition schedule which will result in increased tuition fees for most University students next fall. Fee boosts will be greatest for out-of-state students, and for the first time, graduates and upperclassmen will pay high- er tuition than freshmen and sophomores. Music school fees Tax Packet Falls Short, Of Passage LANSING (R) - House Repub- licans trimmed down their $69 million "nuisance" tax package to $36 million yesterday, but could only pass one bill in the six-bill package. By a 56-44 vote, the minimum needed for passage, one of two bills needed to put a four per cent tax on telephone and telegraph service managed to pass. It had support from two Democrats. A rider on each bill, however, nullifies them all unless all six pass. The telephone and telegraph tax would produce about $8 million a year. One feature of the GOP pack- age, pieced together at a four-hour caucus, proposes : -A one cent increase in the third-of-a-cent tax on a bottle of beer, down from two cents pro- posed previously. It would produce $17 millioL< a year. -A one mill increase in the four mill corporation franchise fee, worth $14 million. -A penny boost in the nickel- a-package cigarette tax, down from the two cents proposed in the original package. It would yield $10 million. -Add a four per cent excise tax to the liquor levy, producing $7 million. All but one of the other bills failed to pass by two to nine votes, with the beer tax increase drawing the most objections. -Daiy-Edward Arnos PROPOSED CHANGES-This artist's conception depicts the Union grill as it will look in Septem- ber, according to revision plans approved last night by the Union Board of Directors.

Board Passes MUG Alterations By JAMES NICHOLS A number of major changes in the appearance and atmosphere of the Michigan Union Grill were approved last night by the Union Board of Directors. Work will begin during the sum- mer on the $33,000 project design- ed to "break up the mass area" of the grill and to provide "a more intimate and private atmosphere," according to Union President Robert Finke, '63. The atmosphere sought will be "traditionally modern," Finke said at a press conference held yester- BEYOND FAILURES: Wolgamots Read Worst Poetry day afternoon to outline the pro- ject.

The resolution, introduced by Howard Abrams, '63, and amended by Robert Ross, '63, commends the stand taken by President Hatcher and the Board of Regents as helping to preserve the Univer- sity "as a community free to pur- sue knowledge and test opinion in- dependent of any control over the ideas which it considers part of the intellectual discourse neces- sary to preserve academic free- dom." Council passed the motion after Fred Batlle, '64A&D, asked for a reconsideration of a similar mo- tion which was defeated earlier in the evening. The only difference between the +wn renlinns uwa that the de.- lighting system, more two-person and high-backed booths to create an atmosphere of privacy, and an athletic scoreboard with the re- sults of professional and Big Ten sports. Work on the grill should be completed about September 15. Ac- tual work on the project will not begin during the present semester. The changes in the MUG are the first in a series, "to occur as quickly as possible,' that will lead to major revisions to improve the character of the ground floor Un- ion facilities, Finke said. In altering present facilities, the Union will be guided by a concept of "providing social and recrea- tional settings to bridge the gap between the non-academic and academic segments of the Univer- sity." Still in the planning stage are additional proposals which would provide for changes in the atmos- phere of the two cafeterias on the ground floor, and for conversioh of the swimming pool into either a conference room with projection facilities or a "bag lunch and study room" with vending ma- chines. Part of the present pool might also become a television room. Besides approving the proposed changes in the grill facilities, the board last night also: Provided that high school stu- dents be denied use of Union fa- cilities except as part of approved visits or projects. will be adjusted to equal fees in The new tuition schedule, fin- alized yesterday, provides for: -A $250 increase in out-of- state graduate tuition, raising it to $1,000 a year. -A $70 boost for in-state grad- uates, to $350. -A $210 hike in out-of-state upperclassmen fees, to $960. -A $30 hike for in-state up- perclassmen, to $310. -A $150 increase for out-of- state freshman and sophomore tuition, to $900. -No change in in-state fresh- man-sophomore fees, which will remain at $280. -In the Music School, tuition cuts of $160 to instate freshmen and sophomores, $10 to out-of- state freshmen and sophomores, and $130 to in-state upperclass- men; and a $50 fee increase to out-of-state students. - -Among the various profession- al schools, increases ranging from $220-$350 for out-of-state stu- dents, and from $60-$130 for in- state students. -A $40 boost in out-of-state nursing students' fees, to $160. -A $10 boost for in-state' nurses, to $80. Add $2 Million University President Harlan Hatcher said that the fee hike, which will add $2 million to the University budget, was necessitat- ed by the state financial deadlock, and the Legislature's failure to agree on a solution for it. "Since the end of the year ap- proaches and it now appears that there will not be an early clarifi- cation of the state income situa- tion, the Regents were polled and their authorization followed," President Hatcher commented. Unclear Effect The effect of the tuition boost on the University's appropriation from the Legislature is not yet clear. The Senate Appropriations Committee is presently consider- ing a plan to boost the University's appropriation if such a boost is matched dollar-for-dollar with a tuition hike. Sen. Elmer R: Porter (R-Bliss- field) predicted that the Univer-! sity's fee hike would have some effect on the amount of the ap- propriation, but added, "I can't estimate it in dollars and cents." other undergraduate schools.

The action was taken after U.S. District Judge Frank Ellis struck down an order Wednesday that New Orleans should integrate the first through the sixth grades in all public elementary schools next September. He ruled that the school sys- tem must start a grade-a-year desegregation beginning with the first grade next fall. * Ellis changed an order issued last month by his predecessor, Judge J.

Wright cited his view that thq School Board was moving too slowly with By MARJORIE BRAHMS In an hour long presentation of the "best worst poetry ever written," members of the John Barton Wolgamot Society last night dead-panned their way through poems which are "beyond the dis- tinction of failures." Prof. X. J. Kennedy of the English department and Mrs. Dorothy Kennedy sang a poem written by unknown temperance poet Katy V. Hall. Called "The Old Filthy Beer Pail," the poem was chanted to the tune of "The Old Oaken Bucket" and told the story of a child living in the anguish of a "Sodom -of sin"-Chicago. Keith Waldrop introduced a poem by Alfred Austin, a poet laureate of England, saying that he became poet laureate "because no one else applied." He read two of Austin's lines: "It fell upon his hand/ In warm, wet slop." x. ' ..
