Smithson and Rhines will be seated for half year terms, with the five other victors slated for full year seats. Students Vie For Offices Besides the elections for Student. Government Council, there were a number of races for other student offices. The first results of the evening to come in were in the election for class officers in the literary col- lege and the business school. Roger Lowenstein, '64, was elect- ed senior class president in the literary college while Michael Lev- in, '64, was elected vice-president. William Raymer, '64, and Robert Zimmer, '64, ran unopposed for the positions of secretary and treas- urer, respectively. In the business school, Alfred Pelham, '64BAd, was elected senior class president in a close race against Kenneth Dresner, '64BAd. Ronald Reicin, '64BAd, and Rich- ard Zahn, '64BAd, ran unopposed for the positions of vice-president and treasurer, respectively. Joanne Brown, '64BAd, a write-in candi- date, was elected secretary. Matthew Cohen, '64; -James Fa- dim, '65; John Karls, '64, and John Roadhouse, '64, were elected to the undergraduate seats on the Mich- igan 'Union Board of Directors. James Copeland, '64L, ran unop- posed for the graduate seat on the board. Although it had been expected that the returns in the race for the Board in Control of Intercol- legiate Athletics would be in early. they were not final until around 10:30 p.m. Robert Timberlake, '65, beat out Willis Bullard, '65, by a vote of 1277 to 886. Another race which had late re- turns was the one for the Board in Control of Student Publications. The final results in this race were not In until around 11:30 p.m. Michael Kass, '65; Fred Russell Kramer, '64, and Michael Lewis, '63, were elected to positions on the Board. Seven students were running for positions on the Board where three seats were open. Kass came in first with 1,652 votes. Kramer cap- tured second place with 1,631 votes. Lewis obtained the third 1 position with 1,427 votes. SLOW-DOWNS: Bes t c., sorority empnasizing thar the re- moval of ex-officios would end di- rect affiliate representation on Council. The referendum is binding as an expression of student opinion because over three-quarters of the students voting cast ballots on the issue. Outgoing SGC member Robert Ross, '63, remarked that the "re- sults of the referendum show that in order to get a change in the status quo, a tremendously large campaign, like the one last se- mester on the United States Na- tional Student Association, is nec- essary. Most Council members are still aware of the ex-officio prob- lem, and this is not the end of the issue."- Chairman of the Committee for a Democratic Student Government Kenneth Miller, '64, said that a "handout printed in the Union the night before and distributed to all fraternities and sororities saying vote no, protect your interests, was influential in the vote." The Committee had campaigned for a strong "yes"~ vote. Michigan Union President Rob- ert Finke, '63, stated that he hoped "the vote of confidence, even though small, given to ex-officios will encourage the new ex-officios to take a real interest in SGC, as has been the case in the past, by and large." Malvin Warwick, '63, vice-chair- man of the committee, noted that the "principal issue was whether or not the conservative forces, principally those of Interfraternity Council, could continue to turn out a preponderance of their po- tential vote, without an overriding issue or an outstanding personal- ity." Chairman of Voice Political Par- ty Joseph Chabot, '63, added that students had shown their sub- servience to an organizational structure, and a lack of concern with democratic structure. The results were first calculated with an eight vote difference, 2,- 313 to 2305, and only with a re- count did the conservatives cap- ture a-victory. During the count the vote showed a liberal lead for most of the night. Stockmeyer, adding to his re- marks, said that the "no" vote, plus an apparently moderate Coun- cil meant that ex-officios would be on SGC for the next few years at least.I MICHAEL KNAPP SHERRY MILLER ...places first ...Places second c> EDWIN SASAKI ... places third FAIR HOUSING: Hatcher To Meet u ---- By MARILYN KORAL Student Government Council President Steven Stockmeyer, '63, and five members of SGC's Human Relations Board will meet with University President Harlan Hatcher at 4 p.m. today in an effort to obtain a public state- ment from the University urging passage of the proposed Ann Arbor fair housing ordinance. The group also plans to re- quest that a representative from the University testify at the City Council hearings on the ordinance in order to explain the University's position on the anti-descrimina- tion law. Stockmeyer will present the SGC motion on the issue: The Univer- Facult Petition onStand Collects Over 12Q1Names By JEAN TENANDER The faculty petition recommending that the University take a stand on the proposed fair housing ordinances for Ann Arbor now has 121 signatures. The petition, which began circulating last Thursday, says: "We believe that the proposed housing legislation vitally affects the University. Our world-wide prestige cannot but be affected by the treatment accorded foreign sity should support the legislation as a part of the commitment stated in Regents Bylaw 2.14. Picketers The HRB called a student-fac- ulty picket on Feb. 21 after Presi- dent Hatcher did not reply to an earlier letter requesting Univer- sity support for the fair housing ordinance. HRB Chairman David Aroner, '64, claimed that the purpose of the demonstration was to show the widespread concern for Uni- versity action on this issue. Since the demonstration various students and professors have been circulating a petition among fac- ulty members encouraging Presi- dent -Hatcher to take a stand on 'the issue. Submit Resolutions Student religious and interna- tional groups have been contacted and asked to submit resolutions to President Hatcher. The meeting with the HRB and Stockmeyer was requested by ,President Hatcher Monday. President Hatcher has said that it is not the policy of the Univer- sity "to dictate legislation" to the local community. However, he has expressed "sympathy" for the ob- jectives of the picketers. HOWARD ABRAMS .. .places fourth Name Seniors To Fellowships Twenty-four University seniors, considered likely to become college teachers, have received Woodrow Wilson Fellowships covering tui- tion and fees for their first year of graduate study. The recipients are: Pietro Argano, Thomas W. Clark, Tom R. Dennis, Louis A. Feldman, Ann W. Goldschmidt, Robert R. Hellenga, Darlene E. Helmich, Lucinda A. Hotchkiss, Diane - R. Jacobson, Harriet S. Katcher and Ronald W. Kenyon. Others are: Margaret A. Klee, Richard F. Magidoff, Robert P. Molay, Melvin L. Moss, Arthur W. Quaife, Jack E. Reese, Robert J. Ross, Errol D. Schubot, Laura Ann Szymke, Bruce S. Vanderporten, David R. Walters, Mary J. West and Wallren O. Wickergren. students and visiting faculty whose skin does not meet the standardsj presently applied by some of our community's citizens. "We believe that the acceptance of the principle of non-dictation does not preclude University par- ticipation in the formation of the moral sense of the community." The petition was circulated by members of the Human Relations Board and by faculty supporting the HRB's stand. Those asking for faculty signatures reported that over 90 per cent of the faculty members asked signed the peti- tion. David Aroner, '64, chairman of the HRB, said that many faculty had termed the petition "too mild" and felt the last paragraph was far too lenient toward the Uni- versity. The paragraph commends the administration for its concern over fair housing for students and staff, and for its efforts to com- bat discrimination., KENNETH MILLER ...places fifth 681 To Win On the first ballot with 583 votes needed to win, Knapp took 681 votes and Miss Miller polled 633. Michael Royer, '64, with 87 votes was dropped on the second ballot. On an original first ballot count, only Knapp showed enough votes to win, but the error of dividing the total vote by seven rather than the required eight was discovered; and Miss Miller was declared vic- torious on the first ballot under a revised quota. On the second ballot Sasaki needed 582 votes to win and took- exactly that many. Sasaki was declared a winner, only to be ruled one vote short of the quota, and then in a third and final declaration cited a second ballot winner. No Winners Third ballot totals saw Henry Wallace, '64E, counted out of con- sideration, with no candidate gaining enough quota votes to win. The fourth ballot elected no Council members,.but dropped As- sembly president Mary Beth Nor- ton, '64, with 243 votes. Voice candidates Howard Abrams, '63, and Kenneth Miller, '64, won on the fifth ballot. Abrams took 639 votes, Miller 586; 574 votes were needed to win. Michael Marston, '64L, was drop- ped on the fifth ballot. Sixth bal- lot totals saw Rhines, Rutherford and Smithson still in the running but none had enough votes to meet the quota of 565. Sixth Ballot Sixth ballot voting saw no vic- tors, but on the seventh ballot Rhines, with 590 votes and Smith- son, with a total of 556 were elect- ed. John Rutherford, '64, was dropped on the sixth ballot. The total vote turnout was the lightest since elections in spring, 1962, and compared with approxi- mately 7000 last semester when the referendum on membership in the United States National Stu- dent Association attracted voter interest. Three of five Voice candidates won election. Abrams, Miller, and Sasaki won while Miss Norton and Wallace failed to win. Two candi- dates strongly supported by the fraternity system-Knapp and Rhines-won on the first and last ballots, respectively. 'Moderate Liberal' Smithson, a resident of East Quadrangle who declared himself a "moderate liberal" in election campaigning, also tallied enough votes on the seventh ballot. Miss Miller drew large support from the dormitory system, particularly Markley Hall where she lives. Liberal leader Robert Ross, '63, who predicted a victory for Voice and liberals, said the election showed that "you have to have an issue which liberals consider con- sequential in order to bring them out to vote." Ross asserted that the ex-officio referendum did not promote liberal interest. Ross also noted that the lib- erals,, with Smithson counted in that group, polled 60 per cent of first place vote. SGC President Steven Stock- meyer, '63, said that "consider- ing the overwhelming organiza- tional campaign conducted by Voice, they made a poor showing."' Stockmeyer noted that "when one considers the overall campus vote and the vote on the ex-offi- cio referendum, it is evident that the campus is in favor of respon- ii : CULTURAL RELATIONS: Boulding Cites Empathy Among Christians, Jews By DEBORAH BEATTIE "The development of an empathy allowing one to imagine what it is like to be a member of a culture other than his own is one of the greatest achievements possible for mankind," Prof. Kenneth E. Boulding of the economics department said last night. Discussing "Cross-Cultural Communication Between Christian and Jew" as the first of the Hillel series on "The Jew in Western Culture," Prof. Boulding said that it is possible to have empathy THOMAS SMITHSON . . . also half-term $30,000: Fire Strikes Utilities Unit, Services Rigs A three-alarm fire last night at the Ann Arbor utilities department distributing center on South In- dustrial Rd. caused about $30,000 of damage, Superintendent of Util- ities Wayne Abbot said. No public services will be dis- rupted. The building contained equipment, used in maintaining public water works, including a crane and a pipe-laying truck. "The big equipment probably es- caped damage," Abbot said, "It could have been a lot worse." The building and equipment were in- sured. The fire department was called at 8:40 p.m. "Three alarms follow- ed in quick succession," Assistant Fire'Chief Arthur Stauch said. The fire was knocked down and put under control in about half an hour. Except for smoldering parts of the roof, the fire was completely out after 50 minutes C dd Tabulation Plans Go Astray By ANDREW ORLIN The tabulations to determine the winners in yesterday's all campus election started slowly at around 7 p.m.'in the Michigan Union Ballroom and remained that way through most of the night. There were great plans to speed up the tedious and complicated procedure of counting the votes. However, from the beginning these carefully laid plans were sabotaged by some unknown force. The liberals blamed it on the conservatives and the conservatives blamed it on the liberals. In order to speed up the process of counting the votes, plans had been made to sort the ballots almost immediately after the polls closed. Because of certain mechanical difficulties, this was not accomplished. The ballots had been locked in a room. In attempting to open the lock, the unknown force intervened and the key was broken. ithout commitment. "All dialogue is enriching because it broadens one's experience, but it can be dangerous as well as enlightening. "I am not at all sure that dia- logue is something one wants to indulge in frequently because there is something private about religious experience and culture. It is hard to talk about and hard to explain as memories and jokes which develop within a family are difficult to discuss," he said. Inherent Rejection Commitment is an intensely personal thing based on personal discoveries and particular life ex- periences. Too much dialogue can be disturbing because a very close association with one religion ne- cessitates rejection of others al- though it need not be unfriendly, he said. Religious experience involves a commitment that we want others to appreciate; but not necessarily to share.he noted.
