COL. BRUCE PIRNIE
supplements film

Rep. Walter Judd (R-Minn) on
why Red China should be kept
out of the United Nations.
The colonel is the New England
chairman of the Committee of
One Million. It was formed eight
years ago to keep Red China out
of .the tUnited Nations and "has
been quite successful.
Feelings Differ
"For the last seven years Con-
gress has voted against Red
China's admission, but there is
some feeling that the administra-
tion doesn't see it that way," Col.
Pirnie said.
In debate following the picture
Col. Pirnie referred to the New
York Times as "a screwball book"
for its statements on the Chinese
situation. He also said that "if the
Red Chinese come into the Unit-
ed Nations, we're all through with
it."
Referring to Chiang Kai-Shek's
aim of reconquering the mainland,,
the colonel asserted that he "ex-
pects a mainland revolt any time."
The United States, however,
would have to help logistically-
with the transport and training
problems of the Nationalists, he
said.

VIGIL FOR PEACE
We, students of the University of Michigan, in our shock and fear
over the specter of annihilation that today looms before hundreds of
millions of people throughout the world, regardless of their national
affiliation, strongly condemn the Soviet Union for their wanton, irre-
sponsible actions in testing atomic weapons in the earth's atmosphere,
and for bringing our planet that much closer to the hysteria which will
eventuate in total war. We would urge the United States to remain
consistent to their criticism of Soviet inhumanity by not following their
lead and resuming atmospheric nuclear tests. Not only would such a
course of action appear hypocritical before the American people and the
world, but it would be little more than a bold show of force heightening
the tension and mutual suspicion that already exist between the United
States and the Soviet Union.
We hope that the war hysteria conveyed by the communications
media of our country and the public condonation of atomic bomb shelters
is but a temporary abberration created by tension in Berlin and that the
American public will not become inured to the inevitability of war.
Indeed, in our conviction that there are alternatives to war and that
every avenue toward peaceful conciliation and the paving of an endur-
ing peace must be explored, we ask the leaders of our nation to consider
carefully before entering into any activities that would only bring us
that much closer to as nuclear holocaust'
To emphasize the profound seriousness with which we consider
the above views and to publicly raise our voices so that others of like
convictions may find encouragement in their beliefs, we shall conduct
a VIGIL FOR PEACE at the flagpole before the General Library from
9:00 A.M. to 5:00 P.M., Monday, November 6 to Friday, November 10.
We invite all those who share our convictions and concern to join
with us in our vigil to join with us symbolically by wearing a blue or
white ribbon or armband for that week.

Council Candidates Discuss Platforms

organization. He said the major
issue at present should be com-
munication. G'sell said he does
not believe there is really a prob-
lem of apathy on campus.
He thinks lack of interest in
SGC could be counteracted by
more informal contact between
Council members and students.
Seeks Judic Revision,
Stanley Lubin, '63, emphasized
the need for revision of the cam-
pus judiciary structure. He pro-
tests the fact that students are
not allowed to bring a defense
counsel or witnesses in their be-
half, when they appear before
Joint Judiciary Council. He said
minimum and maximum penalties
must be made public.
. Council Executive Vice-Presi-
dent Per Hanson, '62, directed
specific questions to several of the
candidates about their platforms.
McEldowney, asked to describe
what he meant by "the direct role
of students" in formulating impobr-
tant University decisions, replied
that he was interested in SGC
suggestions for curricula changes,
particularly in a course in peace
and disarmament.
Comments on Residence Halls
Feldman was asked to define
his statement of a need for great-
er flexibility within the residence
halls. He called for an end of
non-academic evaluations and for
removal of "piecemeal" counseling
services from the dormitory.
Hanson asked what Stockmeyer
had meant when he said in his
platform that fraternities and sor-
orities had the right to choose
their members according to indi-
vidual merit.
Stockmeyer replied that the
Council has a right to legislate on
membership only in the area of
discrimination and that as long
as organizations conform to the
University bylaws, they are other-
wise free to choose their own mem-
bership.
To Evaluate
Corps Project
An evaluation of the University
Peace Corps training program,
which is entering its fifth week,
will be held at 7:30 p.m. today
in the Multipurpose Room of the
Undergraduate Library.
Participating in the program
will be Prof. Samuel Hayes of
the economics department, Prof.
William Schorger of the anthro-
pology and Near Eastern studies
department and Alan Guskin,
Grad, a participant in the train-
ing project for Thailand.
