TAYLOR ... new IFC leader. MeyerhlzJ Seeks,.Board Former Interfraternity Presi- dent John Meyerholz, '63BAd, last night called for creation of a new "board of governors in control of fraternities to put them under re- sponsible management." The board would assume all au- thority and power presently held by Student Government Council over fraternities "as organiza- tions."' "The present SGC is the worst student governing body I' have ever seen," Meyerholz assert- ed and added that SGC is man- dated to solve the problems of the fraternity eystem, although some (Council) members do not under- stand the inrti'cacies of the prob- lems involved. The -proposed board would con- sist of IF personnel, O.fice of Student Affairs officials and fra- ternity alumni and would posses final authority, except for the Board of Regents, over all struc- tural and procedural questions of the system. Fraternity Discrimination Meyerholz expressed disappoint- ment at the SGC attitude toward fraternity problems. Specifically, he said "discrimination is a prob- lem in the systf m, but SGC will not solve it properly" because the present political split in its ex- ecutive committee makes "effec- tive action on fraternity prob- lems" impossible. Meyerholz, expressing what he called the "lack of receptiveness of SGC to the needs and desires of the fraternity system," insisted that "the only way the fraternity system can continue to exist is to come out f r o m under SGC control." SGC President Thomas Brown, '63BAd, said later that "if SGC has failed to recognize and im- plement the needs of the frater- nity system, it has been because the IFC president has not mad those needs known. Except for the issue of discrimination IFC has never come to Council for help in solving problems. IFC Abdication "The only reason Council has authority in fraternity bias is that the IFC itself has abdicated his responsibility and not met the problem itself." Brown denied the role of Coun- cil as an initiator of anti-frater- nity and asserted that "all fra- ternity problems and disturbances, except the issue of discrimination, emanate from the fraternity sys- tem itself. and RGC deals with *ministrative vice-president; Don- ald MacRitchie, '64E, Beta Theta Pi, secretary and Paul Robertson, '64, Lambda Chi Alpha, as treas- urer. Belger, MacRitchie and Rob- ertson were elected by acclama- tion at the end of a five-hour meeting. IFC Endorsement Taylor, Belger and Robertson all had IFC executive committee endorsement, expressed to the body at the beginning of the meet- ing by Meyerholz Taylor centered his campaign on the issue of more IFC direct aid to individual houses which face problems of rush, academic pressure or other difficulties. "I plan to exert strong executive leadership in IFC to improve re- lations among the houses, increase communications among them and work for more cooperation be- tween IFC itself and individual houses," Taylor declared. He also expressed concern that the FPA has played "too passive" a role in forming fraternity regu- lations and expresse the hope that the FPA will bring legislation to the meetings in addition to that brought by IFC's executive com- mittee. No Discrimination "To my knowledge, there is no written discrimination in the fra- ternity system here," Taylor said after his election, but he said he would support the Harris proposal to SGC as a "fine" document aimed at ending discrimination and opening legal channels for SGC investigation into fraternity and sorority bias. He declined to comment, how- ever, on the exact implementation of the proposal, and said he was not sufficiently informed to give his complete definition of discrim- ination or an outline of penalties which SGC should have available to act against fraternities. Bursley Sees ' House Passage For Delta Bill By WILLIAM BENOIT1 Rep. Gilbert Bursley (R-Ann Arbor) said yesterday that the Jamrich bill for Delta College, scheduled to come to a vote in the House today, would probably pass by a large margin. Bursley predicted, however,nthat the bill would be bottled up in the1 Senate Committee on Education. The committee is headed by Sen. John Milliken (R-Traverse City)_ and includes Sen. Stanley Thayer (R-Ann Arbor). Both men are staunch foes ofJ Jamrich's plan, which proposes the establishment of a Saginaw Valley Senior College offering only jun- ior- and senior-year instruction. Under the plan, Delta would con- tinue to educate students on the freshman-sophomore level only. Romney Group But Gov. George Romney's "blue-ribbon" committee on higher education may supersede any ac- tion that the Legislature might try to take on Delta plans, Burs ley said. In other House action, the $750,- 000 fund sought by Romney to promote research at Michigan's colleges was still dead today as Bursley held off on adding the proposal to the general appropri- ations bill. Bursley pointed out that "there is a great deal of sentiment in the House for the money, but hudle tll eist+ha+mkea Park Claims Martial Rule More Stable Some Fear Cutoff In Econiomic Help From Washington SEOUL ()-Korean Gen. Chung Hee Park's junta yesterday spurn- ed a suggestion from the United States, the financial supporter of South Korea, that it drop plans to prolong its military rule and give way to a civilian government. Junta spokesman Lee Hu-Pak announced the military position stands unchanged, though he add- ed that Korean civilian politicians may still come up with compro- mise proposals thatwdeserve at- tention. Lee made clear that the two- year old junta intends to pursue Park's bid to stay in power four more years through an April ref- erendum despite a critical policy statement issued by State Depart- ment press officer Lincoln White in Washington Monday. Threat to Stability "We believe that prolongation of military rule could constitute a threat to stable and effective government," White said in a statement that carried President John F. Kennedy's approval. Lee declared that "it is the Korean people themselves who know best that the military gov- ernment is providing a govern- ment more stable and effective than anything experienced in the past." Some Koreans expressed con- cern lest the junta's blast result in a cut in the economic aid which has kept South Korea going for years and has heretofore given the United States a strong voice in Korean affairs. Civilians Welcome The United States statement was welcomed by civilian anti- government leaders, but appeared to have come too late to bolster their sagging movement to force withdrawal of Park's proposal to stay in power. Premier Kim Hyun-Chul said he considers the Washington state- ment "a piece of advice to work for settlement of the current situ- ation by means acceptable to the people." Talk of a possible compromise revolved around Kim but there is serious doubt he has access to the junta's inner circle. Powerless Cabinet The civilian cabinet Kim heads is almost powerless and merely takes orders from the junta. Kim called a meeting of civilian poli- ticians and civic groups for today to discuss possible ways of ending the nation's political crisis. But 11 of the most influential op- position leaders said they will not attend because the agenda is too vague. A group of pro-junta politicians proposed the creation of a care- taker government to overcome the deadlock between Park and his opponents.

Two Regents will be elected on April 1.) By GAIL EVANS A concern for "all the educational problems in the state" marks the candidacy of William B. Cudlip, '26L, one of the two Republican nominees for Regent. Cudlip believes that the adoption of the new proposed state constitution is one of the necessary first steps toward im- proved statewide education. He sees its education article and tax provisions as the primary means for aiding higher education. "Educated citizens are the wealth of the state and Michigan's education system must remain in the forefront," the candidate stresses. Keep School Quality In order to maintain quality education, "I would strive to make sure that the state's entire educational plant is in shape" to meet the needs of the exciting, demanding and dangerous age in which we live," he says. The new constitution's state board of education will be able to "coordinate all the educational facilities of the state." How- ever, the article still allows the three large universities to retain their constitutional autonomy. Under the document the seven other state-supported colleges and universities will have an ap- pointed governing board. Community colleges would be under lo- cal control, Cudlip points out. He also defends the provision which would make the super- intendent of public instruction .~.1 an appointive position rather than an elective one because it will take the superintendent out of the "political arena." Flexible Taxes The new constitution's "more . / flexible tax structure" will bene- fit the University and the other state schools. "Given the tools" Gov. George Romney will pro- vide adequate financial support for the various institutions.: "There have been 10-12 years of poor fiscal status in Michi- gan" which Romney has tot counteract, he says. "There are about 70 provi- sions in the new document which will provide the new po- litical clothing the state needs," according to Cudlip. WILLIAM B. CUDLIP The new constitution will notR give all the answers for problems facing statewide education. The University, for instance, must cooperate with industry to develop a research complex similar to the ones surrounding college cam- puses in California, NIew York and Massachusetts. 'U' Can Help The University "can be helpful in developing scientific and research projects looking toward the creation of new productsJ for manufacture which will provide more jobs for the people ofr the state." The establishment of more junior and community colleges also will help the development of higher education in the state. Voluntary cooperation between both public and private in- stitutions of higher learning will also help solve educational problems. The role of the Regent in meeting the state's educational needs is to act as a liaison between the public and the Univer-. See CUDLIP, Page 2 By GLORIA BOWLES Prof. Robert G. Harris of the Law School has written Student Government Council in reaction to the letter from sorority lawyers which delayed Regental considera- tion of his proposals on member- ship selection practices of student organizations. Harris wrote that "I am fairly well persuaded that counsel for the sororities in question have timed their moves to maximize delay." The Regents were expected to consider the Harris report at their meeting last Friday, March 22, but postponed its consideration when individual Regents received copies of a brief from the Grand Rapids law firm of Schmidt, Smith, How- lett and Halliday. Contested Legality The firm contested the legality of the Harris report and question- ed the authority of a "transient" student organization to set mem- bership rules and to wtihdraw recognition from student organiza- tions found in violation of anti- discrimination bylaw 2.14. University President Harlan Hatcher and the Regents turned the two documents over to Dean of the Law School Alan Smith. Smith said yesterday that,-he ex- pects to finish his research and a draft of an opinion which will resolve the arguments by the end of this week or the beginning of next week. Vice-President for Student Af- fairs James A. Lewis commented yesterday that his office does not expect to provide copies of the Harris report to Regents before Dean Smith completes his opinion. Confident Harris says that he is "quite confident that Dean Smith's opin- ion will establish the legality" of the proposals embodied in his report. He asserted that he had considered all the points raised in the sorority lawyers brief were considered before his recommen- dations were drafted. He also said that he was "con- fident that the Regents will adopt the proposal or something sub- stantially similar." Harris noted that he bases his confidence "on what I believe to be the merit of the proposal and the fact that failure to adopt it would leave the University utterly berefit of policy or procedure in this area." Also Counsels Council Advice to Council was also aired in the letter, since Harris urged SGC to "move as fast as fairness permits." Harris said the Univer- sity is long overdue in its search for meaningful procedures to reg- ulate bias in already recognized fraternities and sororities." He also said that "it seems clear to me from the business of the SGC Committee on Membership which I have observed that the recalcitrant group's tactic, indeed its strategy, is that of delay." Harris also advised Council to begin informally drafting member- REPORT ON FRATERNITIES-In a letter received by Student Government Council President Thomas Brown, '63BAd (left), Prof. Robert Harris of the Law School (right) defended his pro- posed revision of the Regents' Bylaw for SGC.

APPOINTMENTS: Ensian N ames Kramer As Editor for Next Year By PHILIP SUTIN Business manager Ronald Kramer, '64, was appointed next year's editor of the Michiganensian last night. Kramer succeeds Linda Joel, '63, in the post. Robert Shenkin, '65, replaces Kramer as business manager. Other editors of the 'Ensian are Morton Weldy, '65, copy editor; Diane Pier- son, '65, design and layout editor, and Carol Pantalone, '64Ed, per- sonnel director. ship rules and procedures to im- plement his proposed recolution. He suggested that Council hold public hearings, open to all in- terested groups, in order to con- sult with "a variety of sources and thus make the best possible rules."

VOICE PLATFORM: Sexton Views 'Labor Movement' By ELLEN SILVERMAN Although the term "labor move- ment" is used freely, there has never been a United States labor movement in the strictest sense of the word, Brendan Sexton, di- rector of the Labor Studies Cen- ter of. the United Automobile Workers told a Voice forum last night. In the United States there are trade unions only-not the fed- erations of unions affiliated with other organizations such as politi- cal parties, cooperatives or work- ers travelling agencies which are found in Europe, he noted. Most of these types of federa- tions have an identifiable ideology, while the American trade union movement does not, Sexton con- tinued. "The trade unions' ideolog- ical spectrum is so broad that it should not even be termed ideolog- ical." Ideology Differences These differences in ideology and consequent goals of the un- ions are due to the different areas in which they work, the type of union that they are (craft or in- dustrial) and the type of employ- er that the union deals with. In some of the craft unions, Sex- ton explained, there is a large amount of shuttling between em- ployer and employe relations due to the employe's opportunity to accumulate capital and establish himself as an employer. NOTE PURPOSE. To Marki 'World Theatre Day' By DEBORAH BEATTIE World Theatre Day will be observed by the University Players tonight with the opening of their production of "The. House of Bernarda Alba," by the Spanish dramatist and poet Federico Garcia Lorca. The purpose of World Theatre Day, which is being celebrated in about 50 countries, is to demonstrate drama's contribution to world understanding. In a statement prepared for the observance of this occasion, playwright Arthur Miller points out, "in a time when diplomacy and politics have such terribly short and feeble arms, the delicate but sometimes lengthy reach of art must bear the burden of holding to- gether the human community. Good Thing "It is a good thing," he continues, "that the drama, perhaps above all other forms of communication through art, should be the chosen instrument. For on the stage man must act against a background of1 This situation necessitates that the union set different goals and establish different methods in dealing with the employers. This is in contrast with industrial un- ions-such as the UAW-which are in industries where the em- ployer-employe relations rarely shift, he added. Local Affairs In general, craft unions are us- ually more concerned with local affairs while the industrial union has broader concerns such as un- employment compensation and pension plans. "The structure of the union has many consequences and one is its retarding of a co- hesive "labor movement," Sexton added. The primary goal that all un- ions share is to secure full em- ployment, he added. Mre Acive c' Sexton maintained that labor unions have become more poli- tically active since the New Deal. In Michigan, for example, when former Gov. G. Mennen Williams was elected, Republicans sat on the Board of Regents and the Michigan State University Board of Governors. Today, there are Democrats on these and other state bodies. The Midwest as a whole has changed from a strictly Republican to a mixed political area. Gill Develops New Air Device A wind-measuring device, the anemometer-bivane, so sensitive it Board Announces This staff, announced last night by the Board in Control of Stu- dent Publications, replaces Carole Junker, 63, Bonnie Ginsberg, '63, and Susan Goldman, '63, 'respec- tively. Kramer praised this year's book and promised to expand the new concept which guided its editing. He called the book an artistic and financial success. Advance sales, he noted, were about the same pace as last year, andkhe ex- pects reception of the book to be better than last year when it is distributed May 6. Broke Tradition "The 1963 'Ensian broke many traditions of the past and elim- inated posed group pictures from the book. It was a tremendous experiment as it turned the boomt into a modern, artistic yearuook~- a publication which an alumnus could look at 20 or 30 years from now and accurately review the memories and events of his college career," Kramer declared. He said that he plans to elim- inate the formal colleges and schools sections and replace it with a more informal record. In- stead of the usual stock oictures, the 'Ensian will portray a more symbolic record of the schools, highlighting their familiar places, such as literary college's Fishbowl. Kramer explained. Board Denies Daily Request On Regent Vote The Board in Control of Stu- dent Publications last night de- cided to retain a provision in The Daily's Code of Ethics preventing the publication of editorials which "take stands on elections to the Board of Regents." No motion to alter the present restriction was offered after the board discussed the problem with The Daily editors and with Stu- dent Government Council Presi- dent Tom Brown, '63BAd. Brown, acting on a motion by SGC, urged the board to remove the restric- tion. Brown said that he thought The Daily "should be able to contribute as much to the discussion of the Regental elections as other cam- pus groups" and that he could see no valid arguments against lifting the provision. Prof. Luke K. Cooperrider of the Staff Members Reveal Plans To Leave 'U' By EDWARD HERSTEIN Four professors of the depart- ment of romance languages an- nounced their resignations re- cently. The four are Professors William C. McCrary, Edward B. Ham, Rob- ert L. Politzer and F. Rand Mor- ton. "The losses are all regrettable," Prof. James C. O'Neill, chairman of the romance languages depart- ment said. "For at least three years this department has been under heavy attack from all parts of the country. The situation fin- ally caught up with us." Faculty 'Raiding' He explained that the demand for language professors has re- sulted in much "raiding" of good departments which, in turn, has made holding onto competent teachers "very tough." Prof. McCrary explained that he had accepted an offer from another university which he de- scribed as a "plum." "The Univer- sity had done everything it could" for him, he explained, and he was in no way dissatisfied with it. However he did note that a "minor reason" for his resignation was his concern over financial sup- port for the University from the Legislature. State Support "Many young men of the faculty are nervous about long-term in- stitutional support by the state," Prof. O'Neill said. "They are disturbed by the way the budget is made," he added. He explained that one more fac- ulty member may resign in the near future and that the depart- ment hoped to "buy time" by bringing foreign professors to the University. Prof. O'Neill noted that finan- cial, considerations were no longer the sole factor in faculty decisions on whether or not to remain. He said that promotion to a hWgher rank is now a primary bar- gaining factor. The traditional system of rank within a depart- ment, based on tenure, has been virtually "thrown out the win- dow," he added. HEW Asserts i
