LXXIII, No. 146 ANN ARBOR, MICHIGAN, THURSDAY, APRIL 18, 1963 SEVEN CENTS EIGHT PAGES NO DEBATE, CHANGES: Bill on Education Progresses By ELLEN SILVERMAN Special To The Daily LANSING-The House yester- day sent the higher education ap- 'propriations bill, including the University allotment, to third reading without much debate or changes. Rep. Arnell Engstrom (R-Trav- erse City), chairman of the House Com ittee on Wayns and Means, explained that his committee had added $200,000 to the appropria- tions for Michigan. State Univer- sity's extension and research serv- ices.: This is a fraction of the $386,000 that had been deleted by the Senate. The total MSU appro- priation is now $32.2 million. The appropriations bill remain- ed completely unchanged and, thus, the University figure stayed at $38.2 million. No Amendment Rep. E. D. O'Brien (D-Detroit) questioned Engstrom on the addi- tion to the MSU figure but failed to enter an amendment to delete the figure. The House also sent the mental hygiene appropriations bill to third reading after heated dis- cussion and defeated a move to discharge the civil rights commi - sion bill from the House Commit- tee on State Affairs. Rep. Lloyd Anderson (R-Pon- tiac) tried and failed to amend a' bill requiring the transporting of nonpublic school children to school if public school children have Neutralist Troops Fall Back In Laos Highland Fighting VIENTIANE (P)-Laos was plunged into the cold war again yesterday as outnumbered neutralist troops fell back before pro- Communist forces that bottled them up in the Laotian highlands. Peking radio accused 'the United States of resorting to terrorism and bribery in a prelude to intervention in Laos. The Chinese Com- munists had the support of Moscow, which chimed in with charges the United States is seeking to Panty Raid Punishment By RICHARD KELLER SIMON Students participating in panty raids will face severe en- forcement of University regula- tions, according to a recent statement from Joint Judiciary Council. Violations not only apply to students in the raid, but to "male and female residents in the Residence Halls" who take part. Current lax enforcement inside the women's dormitories will be strengthened, Joint Judic Chairman Lawrence Schwartz, '63, explained. Punishments include fines, social probation for women, and possible expulsion from the University in case of the dam- age of property. Joint Judic's authority comes from the University regulation stating that "No student shall be involved in inciting, leading, or participating in student riots or raids which could result in injury to persons, destruction of property, or violation of a University regulation,-state law or city ordinance.' Panty raids are considered as unauthorized demonstrations in these categories. Schwartz cited incidents in the last few raids in which wo- men not following regulations in Alice Lloyd Hall were punish- ed, but all violations in Mary Markley were ignored. Schwartz explained that how- ever small the number of stu- dents brought before Joint Ju- dic charged with taking part in a raid, the defense that many others took part will not be con- sidered a valid excuse. To Organize Protest Action Against Stores NEW YORK (AP) - Combined forces of big labor unions and major Negro groups were marshal- led yesterday} for a nationwide boycott campaign against four dime-store chains to protest seg- regation policies in Birmingham, Ala. The plans disclosed here called for picketing this Saturday of stores" of the four companies by 25 organizations in all 50 states. "This will be the start of a na- tional boycott campaign, asking all people of good will not to buy in these stores until the Birming- ham stores are desegregated," a union spokesman said. Tell Plans David Livingston, the spokes- man, said the boycott appeal would stay in effect, and other nation-wide demonstrations would be held from "time to time" until "the Birmingham situation is settled." The stores are those of F. W. bribe the neutralists and turn the Southeast Asia kingdom "into an- other Congo." The British labeled the Com- munists the primary troublemaker in Laos. A foreign office statement said the Chinese Reds were using anti-United States charges as a smokescreen for intervention by Communist North Viet Nam. Accusations The British accused the Pathet Lao of blocking investigations by the three-man international con- trol commission into the fighting threatening to plunge Laos into a new civil war. The Pathet Lao has rejected a Western proposal to put permanent teams in the trouble zone. The commission was given spe- cial powers by the 1962 Geneva conference to carry out the guar- antee, of neutrality for Laos and its isolation from the cold war. But the angry words from various capitals indicated a lack of suc- cess. The neutralist forces of Gen. Kong Le were reported to have fallen back almost entirely to the strategic Plaine des Jarres in the East Central Highlands. Encirclement About 5,000 neutralist soldiers were encircled by larger pro- Communist Pathet Lao and dissi- dent neutralist forces in the hills surrounding - the six-mile-long plateau 115 miles northeast of Vientiane. Neutralist sources said Kong Le's troops lost Ban Ban, about 25 miles northeast of the plateau. This could not be confirmed of- ficially because government offices were closed for the extended Lao- tion new year holiday. The neu- tralists had a 150-man garrison at Ban Ban. The neutralists were routed the day before from Dong Danh and Ban Kosi, their last outposts on the main dirt road between the Plaine des Jarres and the provin- cial capital of Xieng Khouang east of the plateau. Informants returning from the area said about 100 of Kong Le's troops and three tanks made their way through jungle paths to the Plaine. Three neutralists were re- ported killed, two wounded and six missing. A neutralist garrison at Phon' Savan, nine miles northeast of the Plaine, was said to be sur- rounded by the Pathet Lao. transportation. Anderson moved to add an amendment to the bill which would allow school districts to charge not more than ten cents per ride for every child on a public school bus. The charge would be fixed at the discretion of the local school board. Parliamentary Debate After a parliamentary haggle, Anderson withdrew his motion but then attempted to enter the amendment in the House journal in order to "notify the citizens of Michigan." Again, a parliamentary question caused a fairly lengthy discussion and Anderson withdrew his comments. The motion to discharge the civ- il rights bill fell many votes short. The vote was 44-46; 74 votes are needed for discharge. Rep. Robert Waldron (R-Grosse Pointe) objected that the items covered in the bill would be in- cluded in the new constitution, and therefore the bill in question was unnecessary. Rights Commission This bill provides for the es- tablishment of a civil rights com- mission and would ban discrimina- ^, GILBERT BURSLEY ...APA resolution tion in housing and real estate. This is aimed at replacing the re- cently voided Rule Nine. In the discussion on the mental hygiene appropriation, Democrats noted that the House Committee on Ways and Means had deleted $52,000 from the Senate total for the University mental health serv- ices. Rep. Alexander Petri (D- Ecorse) claimed that there was no justification for the deletion be- cause the units involved could not transfer any available money from one area to another. R e p u b1i c a n representatives pointed out that the total appro- priation for mental hygiene had been increased from last year. Rep. Harold W. Hungerford (R-Lans- ing) noted that the $52,000 was "inadvertently" put into the Sen- ate appropriation but is unneces- sary because the Veterans Read- justment Center had been phased out and transferred to the Grand Rapids Veterans Hospital. No Decrease Therefore, Hungerford said, the total money involved has not de- creased. Petri then withdrew his motion to consider this part of the appropriation separately and the House voted to send the bill to third reading. In other action, Rep. Gilbert+ Bursley (R-Ann Arbor) introduc- ed a resolution to congratulate the University's Professional The-1 atre Program. The resolution says+ that the University has "taken the lead in a new national movement to. return the best professionally presented drama to the nation un- der non-commercial auspices." I Bursley is asking that the House congratulate the PTP for "its con-, tributions to the educational and< cultural growth of Michigan and its citizens."f JAMES B. FISK . .. responsibility Fisk Views Engineers' Obligations By NEAL FRIELMAN "Engineering must be more than applied science," Dr. James B. Fisk, president of Bell Telephone Laboratories, said yesterday. Speaking at the second annual Engineering Convocation, he talk-,j ed on "The Responsible Engineer." Following his talk, he was award- ed an honorary Doctor of Engi- neering degree by University Pres- ident Harlan Hatcher. Fisk used the development of the Telstar satellite by Bell to illustrate his topic. Work on this project began in 1955, and in- volved the skills of engineers of all branches, before it was launch- ed in July, 1962. Engineering is changing, he pointed out, and, as a result, the responsibilities of the engineer' are increasing too. In addition to solving problems, the engineer of the future must be able to com- municate his results to others and to instruct his juniors. "We have in our grasp today qn almost limitless capacity to change the material conditions of our society," he said. But the "re- sponsible" engineer should never countenance a shoddy solution to an important problem. The convocation is held to rec- ognize outstanding achievements in the field of engineering. This year 33 students were given awards. Outstanding achievement awards were given on a basis of "distinguished scholarship, exem- plary character, leadership and potentiality for success." Co-educational Residence Hall Forms Ready Applications are now available in Rm. 3011 SAB for the new co- educational residence halls which open next fall, the Office of Stu- dent Affairs announced yesterday. The OSA pointed out that un- dergraduates not presently in resi- dence halls may apply, as well as those now in. the system. "The op- portunities for informal contact between men and women in the co-ed units may interest some students who previously left the residence hall system," Robert Le- vine, '63, co-chairman of the co-ed housing study committee, com- mented. Some openings for men and wo- men remain in Mary Markley Hall, although South Quadrangle, the second co-ed hall, .is full, Levine added. e t s s .1 Eillis R~a, AAtA ar dAQrec- tor, will return. The inner group of this year's APA troupe, includ- ing Will Geer, is also expected back, pending final contract set- tlements. Repertory Systemj The fall festival will feature a full repertory system, similar to that of the Old Vic, the Comedie Francaise, the Stratford Festivals, Minneapolis' T y r o n e Guthrie Theatre and the new Lincoln Cen- ter Repertory Theatre in New York. "Repertory aids the actor toI keep his work fresh, and gives the audience a wider choice of dates by keeping the plays avail- able for a longer period," Prof. Schnitzer said.. The plays will be chosen from "the best of classic and contem- porary repertory." Authors now under consideration i n c 1u d e Shakespeare, Shaw, Moliere, An- ouih, Giradoux, Fry, Hellman, Williams and Miller. Members Get Priority Current APA members will be given priority in renewing sub- scriptions during next week and selecting seat locations and dates. In its first year as the Univer- sity's first resident theatre com- pany, the APA played sold-out productions to 60,000 viewers, of whom nearly 60 per cent were University students and 3500 were subscribers. The troupe this year also pre- sented a spring Shakespeare fes- tival, which was sold-out in ad- vance. This was presented as a special program in honor of the 400th anniversary of Shakespeare's birth, as the APA hopes possibly to perform in New York next spring.. In its fall festival, the APA sold-out completely for "School for Scandal," "Ghosts" and "The Tavern." Its other two shows were "Penny for a Song" and the ex- perimental "We Comrades Three." In the Shakespeare Festival, the cast presented "A Midsummer Night's Dream," "Merchant of Venice" and "Richard II." reParcel Post WASHINGTON (A')-Postmaster General J. Edward Day yesterday raised the possibility that his de- partment may have to shut down its parcel post service July 1. This intimation, which he had not voiced before, was in testimony before a Senate appropriations subcommittee in which Day strongly urged restoration of $92 million cut out of his budget by the House. Day also noted that it may be necessary to suspend Saturday mail deliveries, hold service to only those buildings in areas where service is now in existence and cut back the department's re- search and development programs unless the needed fundspare re- stored. Skepticism Day won some sympathy from subcommittee members but also met skepticism that any substan- tial part of the money would be put back. Chairman A. Willis Robertson (D-Va) said he certainly opposes suspension of Saturday deliveries, and he agreed with Day that the $92 million cut was the largest ever imposed on the Post Office Department. But he said the House nearly al- ways had voted some reductions in the past and that the Senate had restored only about half of these. Cites Past Then, he went on, about half of the restoration has been lost in Senate-House conference, so that the final outcome usually has been to put back about one-fourth of the House cut. And Robertson pointed out that it took four months of wrangling in conference between members of his subcommittee and their House counterparts to get even this much restored in 1962. r i i i) T S! r J WILL GEER ... to return I Canvassers Deadlock ConstitutionPassag RABB CONTINUES:Leave Status APA Announces Fall Return Of Document By BURTON MICHAELS Unresolved The Association of Producing Artists will return next fall for an extended season of nine weeks of full repertory theatre; Prof. Robert C.

"Other than the search for lasting peace, no problem is more urgent," the organization of scien- tists and engineers said. Meanwhile, in New York, the Ford Foundation announced 2.8 million in grants to help under- developed nations stem their rapid population - growth rates. The funds will go to research and training in family-planning and reproductive biology. Population To Double Citing growth rates that will double the earth's population by the year 2000, the Academy's re- port asked that "responsible groups in the social, economic and scien- tific communities' of nations with acute population problems join with them in seeking solutions. The Academy recommended "a common effort to disseminate present knowledge on population problems, family planning, and re- lated bio-medical matters-and to initiate programs of research that will advance our knowledge in these fields." "Any comprehensive program for solving population problems must seek to enhance motivation and also to improve procedures for voluntary control of fertility.'' "All nations," the document said, "are committed to achieving a higher standard of living for their people-adequate food, good health, literacy, education and gainful employment. These are the goals of millions now living in privation. "An important barrier to the achievement of these goals is the current r a t e of population growth." Explains Problem The report called population growth "an important barrier" which "imposes a heavy burden on all efforts to improve human welfare." "Moreover, since we live in an interconnected world, it is an in- ternational problem from which no one can escape." Though the population explo- sion's greatest impact is in the underdeveloped nations, "even in the wealthier nations many in- dividuals and families experience misery and unhappiness because of the birth of unwanted child- ren," the report added.

The biggest single amount, $975,000, will help in setting. n 3 .00l hirth-onntrnl Special To The Daily LANSING-Two members of the four-man Board of State Can- vassers yesterday refused to ratify the passage of the new state Con- stitution, thus temporarily dead- locking its status. Chairman David Lebenbom and Mrs. Ester Waite, both Democrats, walked out on the marathon meet- ing yesterday rather than approve the figures from the biennial spring election April 1. The, Republican members of the board, determined to force action in the matter, would not recess or adjourn the session until the Con- stitution was passed upon, so the Democrats finally walked out. How Permanent? There has as yet been no indica- tion whether the Democrats in- tend to deadlock the canvass per- manently; but in the event they do, the decision in the matter would be put to the state Supreme Court, which is presently control- led by the Democrats, 5-3. Lebenbom and Mrs. Waite In- sisted the board await a decision from the State Supreme Court a suit filed to hold up certifica- tion of April 1 voting on the con- stitution. The suit, filed by Detroit lawyer Melvin Nord, a constitutional dele- gate, seeks an injunction to pre- vent approval by the board of the tabulations. Gov. George Romney said today that as far as he was concerned "the vote was legal and there is no possible reason for the delay." Await Next Meeting Robert . Montgomery, secretary of the board by virtue of his post as director of elections, noted that the board is now in a state of "suspended animation," and will probably not meet again until At- torney General Frank Kelley files a brief, in answer to Nord's. Solicitor General Robert Deren- goski, who is preparing Kelley's brief, said it will probably be ready for the court today. Derengoski informed the board today that a decision from the court could be expected "in a few days." Lauds Democrats "I feel the Democrats were sin- cere in their action;" Montgomery said. Zolton Ferency, chairman of the Democratic State Central Commit- tee, maintained the members who walked out only sought a short postponement. "Republicans were unreasonable in not granting it," he said. Ferency stressed that the board had 40 days after election day to certify results, or until May 11. The new constitution was adopt- ed by an apparent majority of 7,- 766 votes. Romney Plans To Open Camp To Aid School Special To The Daily LANSING - Gov. George Rom- ney yesterday announced plans to open a camp for boys as a tem- porary measure to relieve the crowded conditions at Boys Train- ing School. Romney said that under a co- operative plan between the state corrections department and social welfare department, Camp LaVic toire near Grayling will be operat- ed as a boys camp through July 1. 1964, when additional BTS fa- cilities are due to be finished at Council Members Consider Election Procedure Revision By GLORIA BOWLES In an uneventful session last night, Student Government Council members considered a plan for all-campus election of SGC officers, and then sent it back to committee for further consideration. The plan, proposed by Council's executive committee, asked that the SGC president and executive vice-president be elected as a slate by a majority vote of the campus. It also suggested that Council's s s r 9 E r i - A D P1 HELPS OUT: DU Walks Away WithIF Sing Prize By MICHAEL ZW EIG j:;' :.>:<:"::;.> :;,:;.:::<; ;....3:..... .r I Delta Upsilon fraternity walked out of Hill Aud. last night after" winning the annual Inter-Frater- nity Council Sing with a medley of songs from "The Music Man." The best support on the part of a participating sorority was awarded to Alpha Delta Pi. The sorority happened to be teamed with the first place fraternity. Director of the University Glee Club Prof. Philip Duey of the mu- sic school announced the awards, saying that the competition this year was "greater" than any pre- vins var. "Al lwere of connis-; "administrative vice-president and treasurer be appointed by the pres- ident with the approval of SGC. The executive committee plan aimed at a strengthening of Coun- cil's chief executive, and a reduc- tion in the president's administra- tive duties. Supporters of the plan also ar- gued that all campus election of Council officers would increase general interest in SGC. SGC member Howard Abrams, '63, asked in a letter that Council consider such changes in the con- text of over-all structural change and student-faculty government. Such structural changes require Regental approval. Opposition to the plan, and to a similar officer election proposal from the Committee on Student Concerns came from Daily;Editor Michael Olinick, '63, who attacked the proposal on several grounds. He called the argument that all-
