Report Cites Fac

US

Oniversity faculty members overwhelmingly approved continued
participation in intercollegiate athletics a University sub-committee's
report released yesterday shows.
But the faculty also registered its disapproval of several Western
Conference policies including grants-in-aid to athletes, regardless
of need and the minimum standard set by the conference for the
admission of athletes.
Lessen Professionalism
The report was compiled by the Sub-Committee on Professional-
ism in Intercollegiate Athletics under the chairmanship of Prof.,
Robert C. Angell of the sociology department. The group was
originally formed to fulfill a Senate resolution "to correspond with
other Big Ten universities to determine what action their faculties
might take to lessen the degree of professionalism in intercollegiate
activities."
The subcommittee decided to poll the University faculty as a

"useful beginning to its work." The survey encompassed 375 faculty
members with all but 44 responding.
Results show that 84.4 per cent of the faculty favored continued
participation in intercollegiate athletics, while only 8.5 per cent
back withdrawal. The remainder had no opinion.
On the question of academic standards, faculty members feel
that the present Western Conference requirements are too lax. The
rules require that an athlete have a high school class-rank and test
scores indicating that he will make an average of 1.7 or better
in order to receive a grant-in-aid.
Stricter Standard
Of the faculty members polled, 65.4 per cent favor a stricter
conference standard while only .9 per cent are in favor of less
stringent standards. The University requires a 2.0 projected average.
On the issue of grants-in-aid to athletes, the report shows strong
feeling that financial help to athletes should be connected with need.
Almost 43 per cent of those polled answered that they feel there
should be no grants-in-aid specifically for athletes, while only 22

Motion Asks Hours Reforms

By RICHARD KELLER SIMON

will study a plan for extensive
liberalization of women's hours at

one from the Committee on Stu-
dent Activities, and one from Ex-
ecutive Vice-President Thomas

Vote

Fells

Brown, '63, ask for several major
changes in current regulations.
Both motions request permission
for freshmen women to visit
apartments, extension of weekday
closing for freshmen women to
midnight and an increase in the
number of late minutes allowed
each semester.
Extend Closings
The committee motion asks for
extension of weekend closings to
at least 1 a.m. The Brown motion
asks for extension to 1:30 a.m.,
with limitation on the number of
late permissions to one a semes-
ter; 2:30 a.m. for Homecoming,
and Spring Weekend Michigras.
The committee motion also re-
quests elimination of hours and
apartment permissions for junior
women.
SGC members have expressed
strong support for many of the
provisions.
Hours Survey
The Committee on Student
Activities made its motion after
taking an hours-survey in the
women's residence halls, co-ops
and one sorority.
Committee Chairman Claire
Walter, '64, said that the present
hours situation does not allow
women to learn how to run their
own social lives, since the Uni-
versity does it for them. She also
cited the "difficult" crowded,
closing time conditions at the
women's residence entrances as
a problem needing treatment.
The results of the survey show-
ed a strong backing of the pro-
posals brought forth by the com-
mittee. The survey is based on
responses from 866 women, al-
though it was distributed to many
more who failed to respond or fill
in the questionnaire properly.
Broader Survey
The committee is planning an-
other broader survey covering
more women, but it feels fairly

certain the results will be very
similar,
Brown has offered his proposals
as a substitute motion for the
committee's, because he doesnot
personally approve of the sug-
gestions regarding junior women,
and feels these particular points
would hinder administrative ap-
proval of the others.
In a related motion the Com-
mittee on Student Activities has
asked SGC to recommend the
elimination of chaperone forms
for s o c i a 1 events. It cites
little compliance with the rule
and its failure to accomplish what
it was intended to do.
Council will consider these pro-
posals in committee of the whole
discussions as motions of student
opinion and must suspend the
rules to vote passage on any of
them tonight.
Of those women participating
in the survey, 29 are residents of
cooperatives, and 47 from sorori-
ties. The class breakdown of the
respondents living in the dormi-
tory system was 433 freshman,
221 sophomores, 104 juniors and
32 seniors.
The Committee noted that "the
survey is not to be taken as just
a sample of campus opinion."
Also on the agenda is a motion
from Howard Abrams, '63, asking
for elimination of ex-officio vot-
ing power and the addition of ex-
officio representatives from Grad-
uate Student Council, Inter-Co-
operative Council and the Inter-
national Students' Association.
Council will hear a report on
the Organization of Student Af-
fairs Study Committee, and a re-
port on student health insurance.
The Council is currently seek-
ing petitioners to the Committee
on Membership, and other SGC
affiliated groups. Interested stu-
dents should make application at
the SGC office in the SAB.

Peace Corps
To Create
Domestic Unit
WASHINGTON (P)-The Ken-
nedy administration may act with-
in a week or two to start setting
up a domestic version of the Peace
Corps.
President John F. Kennedy al-
ready has accepted recommenda-
tions of a cabinet-level commit.
tee that the corps be created. It
would be designed to help Ameri-
can communities solve some of
their problems much as volunteers
serving abroad are helping foreign
lands.
Administration officials said
yesterday K en n e d y may act
through an executive order, a re-
quest to Congress for legislation,
or both.
The foreign Peace Corps was
created by executive order on a
pilot basis, given some money from
the White House budget, and al-
lowed to recruit and train corps
members before Congress got
around to authorizing a full scale
Peace Corps program by legisla-
tion.
This could also be done on a
domestic basis, but persons famil-
iar with the planning say it is
more likely that Kennedy will
merely authorize a planning and
preparatory program through an
executive order. He would leave it
up to Congress to enact legislation
authorizing actual operation, with
a recruiting and training system.
A 22-man committee is working
in Washington and is a standby
group of the committee that pre-
pared the report proposing a do-
mestic peace corps.
The committee is putting to-
gether information that might be
useful to the President in prepar-
ing an executive order or. a legis-
lative request to Congress.

By JEAN TENANDER
"If we look around today we
find a great deal of behavior of
our policies is based on how right
or wrong our predictive assump-
tions have been," William Livant
of the Mental Health Research In-
stitute said last night in the first
of the VOICE forum discussions
on American society.
He pointed out that in this in-
stance he was not referring to a
moral right or wrong, but rather
to whether a certain policy had
succeeded or failed.
As an illustration he discussed
America's interpretation of the So-
viet Union's potential following
the Russian revolution and as it
existed a few years ago.
Evil Will
"After the revolution we believed
Russia represented an evil and
malevolent will. We also,' how-
ever, believed it lacked skill to
make this evil will into an effec-
tive power. Although almost every
significant event which has oc-
curred since we drew this conclu-
sion about the Soviet Union has
proved it to be wrong, we are only
now revising our interpretation of
Russian skill and have as yet fail-
ed to make any alternation in our
beliefs about Russian will," he said.
Thus one of the two major ques-
tions necessary to ask if we are to
increase our ways of learning in
a contemporary society is what the
history of a particular problem has
been, Livant said.
"A society that forgets the suc-
cesses or failures of the models it
is using to guide its, policies is

cept on faith. If mistakes are
made then we have the preroga-
tive to question the right of those
who made the mistakes to issue
pronouncements without proof of
their validity."
As an instance of such a mis-
take he pointed out that urbani-
zation and industrialization were'
supposed to bring about the amel-
ioration of the civil rights prob-
lem.
"In the face of failures like this
to predict events correctly, we
must ask ourselves seriously
whether the image of the world
in which we operate is gravely de-
ficient," he said.
Livant termed this examination
of what has gone before "radical
renovation." He also discussed the
sort of reactions that occur when
we are confronted with past fail-
ures.

There are two primary ways of
reacting to the discovery that
something went wrong, Livant
said. "The first is what I call
'fleeing forward' which means es-
sentially that if you are frightened
of what has just happened you
run ahead faster."
The second way to meet mis-
takes is to forget they happened,
he said. This is beginning to take
more and more work.
Secrecy or a system of managed
information is another effective
way of allowing people to forget
what they do not particularly want
to remember, as is segregation in
all its aspects. Livant commented.
Restrictions on information and
dissent are therefore the result of
the attempt to erase history. From
such attempts and their successes
comes a system devoted to the
ritual repetition of error.
"A system which is wrong in its
fundamental assumptions and re-
moves itself from all, criticism suf-
fers from something morally in-
correct."

IN HOUSE:
Speaker,
Bill Stallts
By GERALD STORCH
A proposed state constitutional
amendment which would prevent
public educational institutions
from opening their facilities to
speakers "advocating, teaching or
urging subversion" now lies dor-
mant in a House committee.
No legislator voiced opposition
to the substance of the measure,
but two technical difficulties dis-
suaded the House Committee on
Revision and Amendment of the
Constitution from taking a vote,
at its first hearing yesterday,
Rep. Homer Arnett (R-Kalama-
zoo), chairman of the committee,
reported last night.
Several members argued against
amending the present state con-
stitution, feeling that it might be
better to wait until after the fate
of the proposed constitution is
decided in the April elections.
Conflicting Legislation
The other problem is the possi-
bility that the legislation may
conflict with the section to which
it would be added, Arnett said.
Sponsored by Rep. Richard A.
H. J. Guzowski (D-Detroit), the
proposal would prohibt speeches
urging subversion of the state or
national government, but the sec-
tion which would be amended
states that "every person may
freely speak, write and publish his
sentiments on *all subjects, being
responsible for the abuse of such
right."
Aside from these two difficul-
ties, committee members were def-
initely "in sympathy with the pur-
pose" of the amendment, Arnett
disclosed, on the grounds that
Communists have no respect for
and continually abuse the privil-
ege. of academic freedom.
Not Scheduled
He has not yet scheduled thet
next hearing for the Guzowski
measure, which stands as a joint
House resolution.
Another such resolution - the
proposed poll tax amendment to
the United States constitution -
was reported out of Arnett's com-
Imittee vesterdav with a favorable,

OTTAWA-With calm delibera-
tion, the combined opposition in
Canada's Parliament struck down
Canadian Prime Minister John
Diefenbaker's Conservative gov-
ernment last night over the issue
of his indecision on accepting
United States nuclear warheads.
He went down to defeat with
bitter words on United States pol-
icy and Secretary of State Dean
FRusk. ,
Diefenbaker immediately set in
motion machinery for dissolving
Parliament and calling new elec-
tions, probably April 18. An-
nouncements on both are expected
after he confers today with Gov.-
Gen. Georges P. Vanier.
Nuclear Dispute
The elections are expected to
center on the United States-Cana-
dian dispute on nuclear defense
of North America.
The State Department in Wash-
ington had no comment on the
fall of Diefenbaker's government.
A last-minute attack by Dief-
enbaker on so-called United States
intrusions in Canadian affairs
failed to save his minority govern-
ment. The opposition Liberal, So-
cial Credit and New Democratic
Parties combined forces in the
House of Commons and brought
the government down with two
quick no-confidence motions.
Identical Votes
The votes of the Social Credit
and Liberal motions were identi-
cal, 142 to 111, and only two New
Democratic deputies voted with
the government.
Only once before since Canadian
confederation in 1867 has a fed-
eral government been beaten on a
no-confidence vote in the Com-
mons and that was in 1926, when
Arthur Meighen's Conservative ad-
ministration was toppled by one
vote, 96 to 95, on a Liberal no-
confidence motion.
In the outgoing Parliament, the
Conservatives held 115 seats, the
Liberals 99, the Social Credit Par-
ty 30 and the New Democrats 19.
Two seats in the 265-seat chamber
were vacant.
In the end It was a Social Credit
motion that defeated Diefenbaker.
White Enters
Regental Race
Ink White, a weekly newspaper
publisher from St. Johns, yester-
day announced his candidacy for
the Republican nomination for
one of the two Regental posts to
be filled in the April 1 election.
He is chairman of the Clinton
. County Republican Committee and
was a delegate to the Constitution-
al Convention.
