JANUARY 6,1962 SEEN V EmNS QW _. .!IWJT SIX PAG Attorney To Fight Rezoning, Residents Fight Alumni Housing By DAVID MARCUS An Ann Arbor attorney an- Fnounced yesterday that he has been retained by property owners to oppose the rezoning of land on Oxford and Cambridge Rds for the construction of apartment units for retired alumni. The project, run by a non-prof- it corporation, Alumni Life, Inc., was initiated by the Alumni As- sociation. The attorney, Edmond F. De- Vine, claimed that the majority of residents oppose such a zon- ing revision and that he filed a petition with the City Planning Commission asking a public hear- ing on the proposal. Kempf Defends Project Paul R. Kempf who has headed an alumni committee planning the project for the last three years noted that he thought the proj- ect would "enhance the value of the surrounding property."ru r Kempf added that the structure will not be a high one, which would be inappropriate to the neighbor- hood. He also said that the particular location was of great importance because of its proximity to the University's cultural facilities and to the University Hospital. Must File Petition Before a change in rezoning can take place, a petition must be fil- ed with the City Council which in turn refers such requests to the City Planning Commission. The Commission in turn considers the fequest, holds hearings and makes its recommendations. Kempf declined to predict whether the protest would be suc- cessful but added that if the zon- ing change is approved, the Alum- ni Association would be prepared to begin construction immediate- ly. The project will contain indi- vidually owned apartments for retired alumni over - 55 years of age. Prices of individual apart- ments have not yet been deter- mined. Communists Seek To End Court Action WASHINGTON (A)-The Com- munist party filed a motion in federal district court yesterday to dismiss the indictment against it for failing to register under the Internal Security Act as an agent of a foreign power. The party was indicted by a federal grand jury here Dec. 1 for failing to comply with the registration requirements. If convicted, the party could be fined $10,000 a day for each day it refuses to register as an agent of the Soviet Union and provide details of its finances. Deadlines for the registration of party officers and other party members also have passed but there has been no indictments of officers or individuals as yet. JOHN A. HANNAH ... asks opinions Secrecy Suggyested ByHannah LANSING (P),The Constitu- tional Convention adjourned early yesterday, leaving for next week the discussion of possible secret deliberations over legislative re-' apportionment. Chairman John A. Hannah (R- East Lansing) president of Michi- gan State University, has asked members of the Committee on Legislative Organization what they think about holding closed-door meetings with newsmen-and the public barred. If the committee indicates a desire to discuss the controversial subject in secret, Hannah will go to the convention as a whole with a request for permission to hold executive sessions. It would be the first such request under a rule permitting secret meetings with convention approval. Little Support Seen There appeared to be little sup- port for the idea among committee members. Both Republicans and Demo- crats indicated they saw little need for secrecy. Hannah said the committee is faced with a decision as to how to establish and maintain a cli- mate" that will permit and en- courage an airing of the views of every member-with a minimum of time-wasting speeches and lengthy restatements of positions. already understood." May Save Time In a letter to committee mem- bers he asked if one ,or two in- formal, exploratory discussion ses- sions might not "make more pro- gress, save time and tempers." Hannah indicated he might try to arrange an informal dinner meeting at his home on the MSUj campus as an alternative to seek- ing convention approval of closed committee sessions. He contended that the commit- tee needed a setting that woulld "generate light and understanding and discourage heat and unpro- ductive argument." He said committee members al- ready have expressed views that ranged from maintaining the status quo to complete redistrict- ing of both houses on a population basis alone. Senators Examine Problems Humphrey Sees Drop in Jobless WASHINGTON (A)-Sen. Hubert H. Humphrey (D-Minn) predicted last night the Kennedy adminis- tration will lick the unemploy- ment problem by the end of this year. Sen. Thurston B. Morton (R-Ky) challenged this prediction, saying "unemployment problems will be with us for a long time to come." Humphrey, assistant Senate ma- jority leader, argued that unem- ployment is being eased rapidly by upturns in the economy and that by next Dec. 31 the problem will be a matter of history. Sees More Jobs He said increasing expenditures for defense and other factors will provide jobs for more than two million additional Americans by the year's end, wiping out all but what Humphrey described as "hard core" unemployment of about 2.8 million. Morton Understands In challenging this, Morton, former Republican national chair- man, said he understood the eco- nomic index rose only 1.8 per cent last year compared with a 3.2 average yearly under the Re- publican Eisenhower administra- tion. Morton agreed with Humphrey that the United States should con- tinue to support the United Na- tions. But Morton said he ques- tioned the wisdom of this country's support of UN military action against Katanga President Moise Tshombe's secessionist province in the Congo. Pass Medical Care Humphrey said both senate and' house will pass the administra- tion's plan for medical care of the elderly through social security, as well as Kennendy's foreign trade, foreign aid and tax other proposals. 'In an election year you'll be surprised how responsive repre- sentatives in congress will be to what the people want." DKCE Dog Detroit's Traffic Court is now handling adoption cases - and the proud parents are the mem- bers of the Delta Kappa Epsilon house. The lucky child in this case is Bing, a 125-pound Great Dane. Bing first appeared before Judge John D. Watts on a charge of running loose on the streets of Detroit. His owner told the judge that he would give the dog to anyone who would give him a good home. Judge Watts telephoned his son, John D. Watts, Jr., at the Deke House. They agreed that Bing would do well as a mascot for the fraternity. Like any pledge, Bing must be voted in by the members of the house. But he is well qualified for admission, having gradu- ated with honors from Grosse Pointe High School's obedience training course. By JUDITH OPPENHEIM The Office of Admissions is ex- pecting its next big increase in applications in 1964-65, Assistant Director of Admissions Byron L. Groesbeck said yesterday. Although the number has been climbing in recent years, it leveled off last year. Director of Admis- sions Clyde Vroman said the of- fice does not yet have a definite plan for measures to meet the in- crease, but that "the Legislature must be made to see the problem" and handle it with the necessary increase in appropriations. Final decisions are now being made on applicants for the spring semester, with a freshman class of from 150-175 students antici- pated. Many Detroit Students Groesbeck says the customary one-third of the new students will come from outstate with the ma- jority of the Michigan residents from Detroit, since many of the Detroit schools have mid-year graduations while those in rural areas and small towns do not. Groesbeck says the size of the prospective class is about average. The University usually receives about 300 applications for Feb- ruary admissions and accepts about 200. Mid-year students are judged on the same criteria as those apply- ing for the fall semester according to what Vroman calls "a combina- tion of objective and subjective factors." Personalized Selections The methods of selection is highly personalized, he explained, and the only criterion is probabil- ity of success. Groesbeck said the University has its own system of processingj applications which differs from the eastern method of collecting' all applications and holding them until April when they are all con- sidered at once. It differs also from the system of establishing hard and fast criteria and apply- ing them routinely to each ap- plication as it comes in. Instead, considering previous experience and population growtn figures, and making an educated guess at the economic condition 1 I McCorry Vews Mem bershilpUnilt, By GERALD STORCH "Satisfied" so far with the progress of the Student Govern- ment Council Committee on Membership in Student Organiza- tions, Jesse McCorry, '62, paused yesterday to reflect on its problems and accomplishments during his nearly-completed term as chairman of the group. This committee was mandated by the Council in November, 1960, to lay the groundwork and recommend possible action to SGC for implementing SGC regulations which ban membership selection in student organizations on the basis of race, religion, color or national origin. The Council ruling is in accordance with Regents Bylaw 2.14, prohibiting such discrimination on campus. During the last spring semester, the committee concentrated on "working out procedures (to protect groups accused of being discriminatory) and in setting up general guidelines for the investigation and handling of complaints," McCorry said. Safeguard Complaints Group complained against are safeguarded by the mandate's provision that complaints must be in writing, the group must be given sufficient notice if a hearing is held, and all proceedings involving the complaint and the information and testimony must remain confidential, unless the committee recommends disci- plinary action to SGC. The committee decided that complaints must also -contain specific charges and evidence to back them up. Then the relevant membership selection criteria are obtained from the statements on file in the Office of Student Affairs. After viewing and dis- cussing the statement, the seven-man committee will, if the facts warrant, investigate further.. However, the committee may also initiate an investigation on its own, if in studying the statements it discovers evidence of possible conflict with the bylaw, or "if a situation on another campus involving membership selection of a group has implica- tions for that group if represented here," McCorry said. During McCorry's chairmanship, the committee has received "several complaints and initiated several investigations. All the complaints were found to be groundless; of the committee- inspired investigations, two were concluded after conferences with the parties involved, and the others have shown cause for further discussion." The committee has nearly finished work on the latter cases, McCorry said, and will probably make recommendations on them to the Council early next semester. (It is known that one of the groups is Sigma Nu, as the house president has made a public statement to that effect.) Sees Implicit Bias The committee has found that there seems to be far more implicit bias than explicit, written discrimination, McCorry said. He pointed to the system of "recommendations" in pledging as an example of possible violation. Prospective members usually must be recommended by two persons from their home town. "This inability of some groups to select members on a basis of a purely local decision raises significant problems for the com- mittee and the administration," McCorry said, because of a University regulation that membership selection must be made by the student group. The efforts of the committee have thus far been primarily with the explicit bias. However, the question of "good faith" is definitely a factor in both explicit and indirect discrimination. McCorry considers good faith to be "a positive effort" to eliminate discriminatory selection. Although "bad faith," which might include turning in an incomplete statement of selection criteria, untruthfulness or ignoring committee requests,. would not in itself be grounds for a recommendation to withdraw recognition from a group, it would be an important factor, See GROUP, Page 2 "French Prepare , Pla o"Qel e il nc By Agitators in Algeri Personalized' System Marks Admissioi of the country the following sprin and fall, the admissions offi predicts how many applications will receive from qualified hig school students.

For the first time in the history of the university, both .male and female students eat, sleep, study and attend classes in the same dormitory. However, the students will be housed in sepearate wings of the, dormitory. House 1,200 Students The students, some 550 freshman men and 650 coeds, began their new experience in education this morning by attending social science, American thought and language *- and natural science classes in the Case Dormitory. The plush, $5-million dormitory was opened for the first time last fall. The men moved in this week. "One of the objects of this new academic program is to help cut down the amount of travel a stu- dent has to do on campus," Prof. Russell Fink, chief academic ad- viser explained. Offer Wide Program Fink said the new program would enable the students to take most of their basic college work in the dormitory. Included in the five-story build- ing are multi-purpose rooms for classes and social activities and space for a library. The new dorm was financed through federal grants and levy of student fees. The Joseph A. Bursely Hall, slated for the University's North Campus, will feature coed living, but no plans have been announced for classroom use of the building. Faculty Senate To View Case Of Professor Michigan State University Presi- dent John A. Hannah said Thurs- day no action will be taken against an MSU professor who claimed that conservative views were muz- zled on the campus. Charges of John N. Moore, as- sociate professor of natural science and adviser to the MSU Conser- vative Club, are to be reviewed at a February meeting of the Aca- demic Senate. The senate will consider the charges but there would be no action taken against Moore, Han- nah said. "He saiduhe would ask the sen- ate-if it found Moore's charges were not substantiated-to rec- ommend future policies regarding the activities of faculty members in off-campus situations. Moore attacked the academic senate for, its suport of -a resolu- tion proposing the elimination of a disclaimer oath required of stu- dents who qualify for loans under the National Defense Education Act. Tribune Claims Judge Settles Buckley Suit, Justice Arthur Markewich of the New York State Supreme Court issued a ruling Wednesday compelling Hunter College to treat alike all organizations seeking to rent its facilities for meetings. The ruling came as the result of a suit by William F. Buckley Jr., editor of The National Review, who sought to force the college to continue leasing its auditorium for a group of symposiums sponsored by the conservative magazine. Justice Markewich, however, dis- missed the suit on a technicality, charging that the petition did not give sufficient ground. "The petition should have plead- ed discrimination in that respon- dents have opened the door to other organizations; nowhere in the petition is such an allegation made." Prof. John Meng, president of Hunter, said that because of "the college's dedication to impartial- ity," he must bar the forum spon- sors as "a political group repre- senting a distinct point of view of its own." In the decision, Justice Marke- wich said that Prof. Meng had confused the two roles of Hunter: one as an educational institution and the other as the custodian of a public building that under the law may be used "for other than college or university purposes." Government To Initiate New Moves To Direct Measures Against OAS, FLN; Death Toll Increases PARIS P) -- The government yesterday prepared harsh new measures to smash a rising wave of violence over the Algerian issue that has pushed the new year's death toll past 100 in France's North African territory. In an upsurge of Algerian na- tionalist action,- a ;French army convoy was trapped by rebels in eastern Algeria and 18 paratroop- ers were killed and 7 wounded. Hit-and-run tactics with ma- chine guns, knives and grenades in Algeria during the day took the lives of 14 or more European set- tlers and Algerians. Plan Stern Measures government spokesman said the anti-terrorist measures would be stern but he declined to elabo- rate. They will be directed at both the nationalist rebels and the rightist French Secret Army Organization - an underground opponent of President Charles de Gaulle's self- determinatibn plan for Algeria. Talk of a new right-wing putsch swirled through Algeria, and French leftists warned against a fascist takeover. Ambush Army Convoy The French army convoy was ambushed in the Kerrata Gorges between Bougie and Setif. The at- tack was the largest by rebel forces in several months. French army headquarters said the convoy was halted by a land mine that blasted the lead vehicle. The day's losses could be added to a casualty toll that already had reached 80 dead and more than 150 wounded since New Year's Day! Elsewhere at least nine per- sons were killed in Algiers, three in Oran, and two in Constantine, The dead in oran included two Algerians and a European. In Paris the Communists pub- lished a call for a demonstration today in front of their headquar- ters.

Edison qualify for admission in the TVniversity's engineering college? Prof. Carroll V. Newsom, former president of New York University, doubts that the famed inventor would be admitted to any modern engineering school. "He wasn't a theoretical man," Newsom told the Associated Press yesterday. An undue emphasis on the development of theoreticians in today's engineering colleges is putting many practical men at a disadvantage, Newsom observed. "We're too short on people who can 'play with hard- ware'," he noted. Attwood Sees Impractical Comparison A comparison between Edison and modern engineers is impractical, Prof. Stephen S. Attwood, dean of the engineering college said yester- day. "Times' have changed since his day.
