Lake Forest Groups Seek Approval By Student Government, Trustees By MALINDA BERRY Lake Forest College's five sororities, which were expelled by their nationals last summer, have reorganized as local groups, it was an- nounced Saturday. The college's three fraternities have continued to function with- out change. The five sororities, which are represented on the Uni- versity campus, have changed thgeir names so that they can operate on the Lake Forest campus, as separate, ,locally autonomous organi- zations. Official recognition is still pending by the Board of Trustees, which neets next month, and the student government council. The sororities are Snow in operation by Seek Change In AssemEbl At the Assembly Dormitory Council meeting yesterday, Mary Beth Norton, '64, and Denise Wacker, '64, made a motion to amend the ADC constitution to al- low representation on the body to be governed by dormitory popula- tion. The proposed motion would change article four, section two of the constitution. In this way, houses would no longer have one representative but ,would be al- lowed up to three delegates, the number determined by the size r of the house. Those houses with a population of 175 women or less would have one representative. Houses with from 175 to 350 residents would have two delegates, those with more than 350 residents, three. The representative would have the same voting rights as those representative now on the council. The new delegates would also re-. tain the right to be a voting mem- ber of their own house council, elected by the house. The change will be voted on at the next meeting of ADC after representatives have reviewed the motion with their houses. A second proposed motion would allow ADC to elect the president of Assembly Association. At pres- ent, the president is elected by all members of the Association. Students Hit Deterioration Of Education ROCHESTER, N. Y. (/?) - Be- tween 800 and 1,000 students massed on the University of Rochester campus yesterday to protest what their leader called the "rapidly detoriating"quality of education at the university. Student speakers complained what they said were overcrowded classes, indifferent graduate as- sistants, and professors preoc- cupied with research. The university raised under- graduate tuition last week to $1,500 a year, an increase of $225. Student sources said this was the spark that started the rally. Donald Alhart, a senior from' Rochester, told the rally that freshmen English classes four years ago had 20 students and met three times weekly. Now, he said, they have more than 150 stu-' dents. temporary permission granted by Dean of Students Howard Hooge- steger. Change Names The sorority reorganization has made the former chapter of Chi Omega a local called Chi Omega Chi. The former Gamma Phi Beta chapter is now Gamma Phi Delta. The Alpha Delta Pi chapter adopt- ed the name Kappa Kappa Chi,. which it had before joining the national group in 1936. Yesterday the former Alpha Phi chapter decided on the name Chi Lambda Phi. The former Alpha Xi Delta chapter is keeping its name as a local group but will not pledge any more students and plans to go out of existence when its pres- ent members have graduated. Temporary Decision The new Chi Lambda Phi house has not officially decided to go local. But in order to continue operating until it gets an official word of policy from the board of trustees, it needs to have a name and to be organized to continue to function. "As a group we have decided to go local to the extent of form- ing committees to write a consti- tution, as individuals we haven't taken a vote yet. As far as I can interpret it means we will go lo- cal," Susan Miller, president of the newly organized Chi Lambda Phi house, said. No Discrimination The constitution of the new or- ganizations must by necessity contain a "no discrimination on race, creed, or color" clause. Be- cause of the resolution adopted last June by the board of trustees which bars discrimination by cam- pus fraternities or sororities in the selection "of pledges. The nationals of each of the sororities took the charters from the five without no- tice earlier this fall. The trustees stated student or- ganizations must be nondiscrim- inatory to be in harmony with the tollege's admissions policy, which is to accept students without re- gard to race, religion. The resolution insisted on selec- tion by the local chapters unin- fluenced by the policies of their national organizations. Courts To Hear School Fight KENOSHA, Wis., () - Circuit Judge M. E. Baker yesterday set Nov. 20 for a hearing in the Mc- Guffey Reader squabble. A petition asked the court to remove four of five school board members who last week voted 4-1 to retain the McGuffey Reader. The petition cited eight causes for removal against each of the four, including attempts to prohibit teaching "of certain subjects in the social science curriculum. KRatangese, Congolese Near War LEOPOLDVILLE AP)-Fighting has. broken out between Central Government and Katanga troops and Premier Cyrille Adoula an- nounced yesterday a virtual dec- laration of war against the seces- sionist province. The moderate premier of the Leopoldville government said a po- lice action had been launched to liquidate Katanga's secession.

And in Washington, a nuclear scientist said yesterday he is in- clined to_ believe the new Soviet superbomb was a very dirty one which would greatly increase ra- dioactive fallout in the United States. The Soviet Union told the West it conducted the test series in order to prevent by sheer strength a nuclear war over Berlin that could come at any moment. Leap Backward "The world has taken a great leap backward toward anarchy and disaster," UN Ambassador Ad- lai E. Stevenson said in touch- ing off a wave of denunciations of the Russians in the Assem- bly's main political committee: Stevenson referred to the latest Soviet explosion as "apparently even larger than 50 megatons." He said the day of the test would be long remembered "for a dis- play of violence on a scale un- heard of in human history to this time." Semyon K. Tsarapkin, the So- viet delegate, did not mention the size of the blast in replying to Stevenson. Increase Pressures He accused the United States of increasing pressure in Berlin to the point where a nuclear war could come at any moment. To prevent such a war; he added, the Soviet Union needed all its strength-and that is why Moscow resumed its current test series. Dr. Ralph E. Lapp, a non-gov- ernment physicist, said he was "inclined to believe the bomb was a - very dirty one." He expressed the belief that it would lead to a marked increase in radioactive fallout levels in North America next spring.

RESEARCH METHODS: Eldersveld Examines1Poltics By SANDRA JOHNSON Prof. Samuel J. Eldersveld of the political science department yesterday explained the scholars methods and the problems he faces wherw~"tackling a research prob- lem" in politics. He has applied investigative pro- grame of similar design to the political party organization of both Detroit and Amsterdam in the Netherlands, Prof. Eldersveld told the faculty members and graduate students attending the first after- noon session of the Political Sci- ence Roundtable. This design focuses on three concerns: the party as a coalition of individuals with diverse back- grounds, attitudes and perspec- tives; the hierarchial coherence and managerial structure of the party machine; and the functional competence of the party in the political system. Interviews Members In interviewing party members to find out to what extent a party is composed of similar or dissimi- lar individuals-the first ,major focus of concern-Prof. Eldersveld tries to learn several things about the member. First he establishes the persons demographic and social back- ground. Secondly he asks about the individual's career, his moti- vation for taking up that line of work, and his aspirations. Finally .he inquires about the individual's perspectives concern- ing politics. Specifically, Prof. Eldersveld asks the member what he thinks the goal of the party is and what role the party plays. Additionally he wants to know what the member's political ideol- ogy is, what his reasons are for actively participating in the party, and how he sees the political en- ! vironment. Using such data, Prof. Elders- veld hopes to determine how heterogeneous and homegeneous a party's membership is and what type .of people hold .,positions in party organizations at the precinct level as well as in the upper eche- lons. In this investigation he is seek- ing to determine whether the view of the party as a coalition is a useful approach. In studying the second major focus. of concern-hierarchial co- herence - Prof. Eldersveld ex- amines the party's decision-mak- ing process; its communication pattern, both formal and informal. Studies Competence In the study of functional com- petence-the third major area of concern-he is attempting to ex- amine the nature of party activity in order to determine the impor- To Inculcate Cuba .Peasants With Marxism HAVANA (') - Prime Minister Fidel Castro declared last night that his regime is strengthening its socialist system through Marx- ist-Leninist indoctrination of the peasants.

"Of course, we expect to be sick and to lose some weight there," Sharpe said. All water has to be boiled. Rice with a hot sauce will be the staple diet. Social conditions in Thailand are very different. Although there is no dating, it has been predicted that about five volunteers will be married before their return, Larry Forman said. Burger commented that the way of life in Thailand is much slower and that volunteers cannot expect to initiatte much progress.
