Students living at home totaled 1,807 and 7.66 per cent of the total enrollment as opposed to 1,597 and 6.98, respectively, last semester. Despite fears that the number of affiliates would decline if senior women were granted apartment permission the count rose very slightly although percentage wise the system showed a drop. The number of men in fraternities showed an increase of three over the 1,475 figure of last year, a rise whch resulted in a percent- age drop from 9.64 to 9.54. Membership Increases Sorority membership showed an increase of four, from 1,315 to 1,319, and a percentage drop from 17.39 to 16.25. Cooperatives found themselves in the same position, Their per- centage decreased minutely from 1.02 to 1.00 while membership rose from 234 to 237. University residence halls showed a decrease all across the line. The total number of students living in them decreased from 7,523 to 7,340, a drop from 32.90 per cent to 31.09. Noting the later drop, Ostafin explained that Victor Vaughn women's residence was phased out of the dormitory system last year. Geddes woman's cooperative also suffered a similar fate. Popular Apartments University apartments rose in popularity with 945 students liv- ing in them as opposed to 869 last year. This resulted in a percent- age rise from 3.8 to 4.0. The largest change was in the miscellaneous category which includes students enrolled at the University but living in different parts of the country. The number of students in this category stod at 125 as opposed to 285 last year. In both years all of these were men. The percentages were 1.25 and .53, respectively. Ostafin said that this was perfectly normal for this category and that the figures will vary depending on how knowledgeable the analyst is. Viewing the overall housing situation he said that "our big gap is housing for the upperclassmen, graduates and professional student." The development of "a regular flexible development" on North Campus will tend to alleviate this. l THE, U' IS NOT A FORD CAR See Editorial Page I CJ 43zr a t 1, ]ty SUNNY, WARMER High-42 Low-29 Temperatures Rising toward evening I Seventy-Two Years of Editorial Freedom VOL.

Reviewing a tentative progress report from the study committee, which has been considering the possibility of effecting a Union-League Regents To iew Greek Membership ROBERT FINKE ...reviews year Finke Talks About Union Speaking before the Michigan Union Installation Banquet last night; outgoing Union President Robert F. Finke, '63, reviewed his year in office. He said it was a year in which he saw the Union come alive to the atmosphere of the University" and "the University become aware of the Union," but noted the Univer- sity's failure to support the Union with additional funds for more services and improved facilities. "I believe that the University can do this," he elaborated. "It has been given compelling reasons to provide additional support this past year, and I would call upon the University to show cause why the Union should not receive, an additional allocation-its first in 11 years.". Finke expressed concern for the University's "muddied approach to student affairs" and called upon students to "do what they can to disperse whatever it is that ob- scures the University's vision and to try to work for a clearer ap- proach to student affairs." He endorsed the idea of form- Ing another political party on this campus, providing that such a body be "structured.n such a way as to be primarily an instrument for providing information about student affairs to the student body." Referring to the recent efforts to merge the Michigan Union and Women's League, Finke recognized that such a merger, resulting in a University center, would not be an easy goal to achieve and should be attended to with all expediency and "tireless efforts on the part oji Union and League people.' 1alks Show Little Change emerger since October of last year, the Board chose to endorse the proposal to merge student activi- ties, but voted to endorse only in principle a merger between the governing boards of the two or-, ganizations. It voted only "to endorse, in principle, the desirability of a merged management of facilities to be used, with the provision that a committee be established to study and give consideration to all constituents involved so that an ultimate plan can be presented to the governing.boards of the Union and League and the Regents to provide an improved operational management." In effect,, the Board called for. a better explanation of the con- ditions under which a merger of the governing boards could be ef- fected. It asked that an implementation committee be charged with the task of determining the specifics of such a merger. Regents Irene Murphy of Birm- ingham, member of the Board, pointed out that the work of such an implementation committee should be given to paid staff mem- bers since it is properly a func- tion of University management. Of particular concern to the Board was the destiny of the pres- ent Union and League plants un- der a merged governing board. Mrs. William Walz, chairman of the board, suggested that the study committee devote itself to the de- velopment of a combined student activities committee and "divorce itself from the question of the use of building facilities at this time." League President Margaret Skiles, '63, noted, "It is almost impossible to merge student ac- tivities without merging the gov- erning boards above it. A combin- ed student activities group could not operate successfully witfiout one single group to which it would be responsible." The study committee will take these issues into consideration be- fore it presents its final recom- mendation later in the semester. To Discuss SGC Powers In Violations' Skip Consideration Of Harris Report By GLORIA BOWLES A general discussion of Student Government Council's powers to withdraw recognition from recog- nized student organizations found in violation of anti-discrimination bylaw 2.14 will be conducted by the Regents at their meeting to- day. According to Vice-President for Student Affairs James A. Lewis, the Regents will not consider the Harris report passed by SGC two weeks ago. Council had hoped for Regental consideration of Harris' specific proposals on membership practices at today's. meeting. General discussion of fraternity- sorority, membership- was not in- cluded in the official Regental agenda released late yesterday af- ternoon. However, Vice-President Lewis said last night that the discussion would be included. Council president Thomas Brown, '63BAd., noted that it was Regental procedure to conduct general discussion of issues before formally placing them on the agenda. Two Regents, consulted last night in Ann Arbor, did not know the Regents would consider mem- bership selection practices at to- morrow's meeting. Neither had seen copies of the Harris report. SGC member Kenneth Miller, '64, telephoned Vice-President Lewis and said he and his col- leagues were very anxious that discussion of the Harris report be included in the Friday agenda. Miller noted that Council had spe- cifically scheduled its considera- tion of the Harris report in order to meet a deadline for inclusion of the report on the March 22 Regental agenda. The Harris report would estab- lish a membership judge to take care of membership questions. The Regents will also consider bids for the bio-systematics ad-. dition to the Museums Bldg. and the request for 113 faculty leaves+ of absence.+ * * * * * * Hart 'For. Pushes 4'U, NASA Spac --- * To Suggest Legislation Limitin'u' By CARL COHEN Rep. Carroll C. Newton (R-Del- ton) will introduce a resolution which would attempt to limit the size of the University "either Fri- day or Monday," he said yester- day. The resolution will set a limit of 27,500 students as the maximum enrollment on any one campus in one city, so it would not effect the University's plans for a branch at Delta. The resolution would also ef- fect Michigan State University's plans to expand its East Lansing campus to 55,000 students. Newton would not comment on the resolution until it has been introduced, but according to Rep. Gilbert Bursley (R-Ann Arbor) the purpose of the measure is to encourage small schools, and lim- it the impersonal nature of large universities. Executive Vice-President MarvinI L. Niehuss said that he would question the constitutionality of any measure that limits the Uni- versity. However, he believes thata "the governing boards would not1 be bound by it because it is a reso- lution."1 According to Michigan's consti- tution, the University has what William Lemmer of the Universityt Attorney's Office called "completet autonomy," so the resolution wouldt only be a statement of legislative opinion, and not a binding law.

The amendment also requires that the candidate have at least one additional semester experience in "residence hall government," in- terpreted to include house judi- ciaries and corridor representa- tives. To become effective the pro- posed amendment must be rati- fied by at least two-thirds of the house councils and gain approval of the Residence Halls Board of Governors. This amendment is different from the so-called Strauss House amendment in that it requires IQC experience. The Strauss House amendment, now circulating to house councils, opens the presi- dency to sophomores with exper- ience in any level of quad govern- ment. IQC also endorsed an amend- ment which would, if ratified, give the IQC president the right to vote to make a tie, as well as break one, and would deny voting power to the vice-president, treasurer, and secretary. 1 t l s f 1 i c Support for the amendment cen- "Robert's tered around the argument , that , Herbt, '63 the vice-president, treasurer, and The a secretary are presidential appoint- ments, therefore having no direct presidenti constituency among residents.

By ELLEN SILVERMAN There are four levels in the study of leadership, Prof. James MacGregor Burns of Williams Col- lege said last night. Prof. Burns divides between the contemporary and topical, the strategic, the normative and the theoretical approaches to leader- ship. Leadership, however, is the key, he noted. The author of "John Kennedy: A Political Profile," commented that within the Kennedy Admin- istration "we are seeing a con- test between the Richard Neu- stadt and the Burns approaches to leadership." turned out to be as much of a pro- fessional as Neustadt said and hoped that he would." On of second level, there is the question of what is meant, by political leadership, Prof. Burns remarked. "It is a question of whether we look at the leader as a resultant of the pressures on him or as a man who can rise above the pressures and change the context within which the leadership works." Former President Franklin D. Roosevelt was a strategic leader and therefore he missed the su- preme opportunity to change, Prof. Burns continued. He cited Roosevelt's move toward court re- form in 1937 as a mistake since tude toward and fear leadership," he noted. Intertwined with this tradition is an.American fear of najoritarianism. "I would argue that majority' rule and leadership are insepar- able." There is no such thing as a tryranny of the majority, Prof. Burns maintained. There are forces in the nation today for a pluralism which should exploit the "majority, a majority which would equip the nation with the power needed in the twentieth century. Shift in Emphasis Regarding the fourth level, Prof. Burns noted that in the last 20- 30 years there has been a shift in emphasis from the theory of AA UP Condemns Firing Of Professor as Unfair An investigating committee of the American Association of Uni- versity Professors termed the University of Illinois' 1960 firing of Prof. Leo F. Koch as "outrageously severe and completely unwar-' ranted." Prof. Koch was fired after he wrote a letter to the Illinois Stu- dent newspaper, The Daily Illini, condoning pre-marital sex rela- tions "among those sufficiently mature to engage in it without social consequences and without violat-'" ing their own codes of morality . -- and ethics."

"It is in the hands of Con- gress," Webb deeared. &.n Clinton P.
