The poll was taken yesterday and the day before in an attempt to assess attitudes towards 1) holding formal fall rush in Sep- tember; 2) having fall rush some- time in the future, but not next year and 3) allowing upperclass- men to rush in the fall and all University women in the spring. The survey also asked for alter- native suggestions. The vote will be tabulated in terms of the number of houses supporting or rejecting the con- cept and the total number of wo- men backing the proposal Panhel President Patricia Elkins, '64, re- ported. Vote Not Binding The vote will not be binding. "The poll was for the benefit of Panhel's executive committee and rush committee, who will make any decision about instituting fall rush," Mrs. Elizabeth Leslie, Of- fice of Student Affairs advisor for sororities, said. If a bare majority of the houses approves the concept of fall rush, Mrs. Leslie believes that Panhel will decide to study the idea for a year before taking any definitive action. However, "If the results are pretty overwhelmingly in favor of the approach and if there is a lot of enthusiasm for it," the execu- tive council will submit a recom- mendation favoring fall rush to, Student Government Council this spring, she predicted. Require SGC Approval SGC, by virtue of its calendar- ing powers, would have to approve fall rush dates before the plan could take effect. SGC President Thomas Brown, '3BAd, said that "I don't tl ink Council would have time to con- sider fall rush for freshmen any more this year." He indicated that SGC could easily take the time to debate, fall rush for upperclassmen-a less controversial issue. Consult Assembly If fall rush were to materialize into a concrete proposal, Assembly Association would be consulted on the merits of the plan and its evaluations would be given serious consideration, Mrs. Leslie com- mented. As advisor to Panhel she said that her approval of fall rush would be necessary; however, she; indicated that she would support1 the decision of the students. , Mrs. Leslie noted that her role would be that of critic of both the old and the newly proposed rush-1 ing procedures. Consideration of fall rush isE part of a total re-evaluation ofI the' rushing program. Other1 changes will be discussed today byl the sorority presidents, Miss Elkins said. * * * * * * * * SGC On Slates Voting Referendum.

Indiana Jury Indicts Studen * Faculty Votes To Establish NeW Deanships By DEBORAH BEATTIE The faculty of the education school has voted to permit its dean and executive committee to create two new assistant or associate deanships. The new titles were recommend- ed in the report of the education school's five-year evaluation com- mittee, headed by Prof. Lester W. Anderson. Dean Willard C. Olson of the education school said that al- though the permissive legislation will be effective on July 1, the new deanships will not definitely be recommended and that he is not at present considering anyone for the positions. Approval Needed The additional administrative titles will be given to the chair- men of the Undergraduate and Graduate Committees. Recom- mendations for the. new titles will have to be approved by the Regents. In addition to Olson, the educa- tion school currently has an assistant dean,,Charles F. Lehman. The same by-law amendment also changes the appointment of the committee chairmen from a five-year to a one-year basis. Core Recommendations Either at the meeting next Tuesday or at the June session, the faculty will discuss recom- mendations of the core of courses which should be asked of all stu- dents in. education, irrespective of their fields, Olson said. At their meeting next week, the faculty will review the nature of a new research committee pro- posed in the analysis. They will also consider the for- mation of an administrative cabinet to function in addition to the executive committee, which would allow the committee to de- vote more time to broad policy matters. A recommendation to establish a. single instructional material ad- visory committee to coordinate the functions of several current committees concerned with such areas as audio-visual materials and libraries will also be reviewed at the May meeting. Evaluation The fiveary evaluan was: for petitions is tomorrow. Whether Democrats can raise money after tomorrow and recount extra pre- cincts is a legally moot point. However, Downs said, those pre- cincts picked for recount will be carefully selected to maximize marginal miscounts and thus get a possible upset in the constitution vote results. The constitution, endorsed by Gov. George Romney, was approv- ed by Michigan voters in the April elections by 7,829 ballots. When asked about a possible recount of regental elections, which saw an early morning upset win of William Cudlip over Don- ald Thurber, a Democrat, Downs replied that this will be impossible with the funds available. Downs mentioned that Thurber's votes came in a "parallel pattern con- sistent with Eugene Power,' a. Democrat who won reelection as a regent of the University. The constitution's votes did not follow such a consistent pattern and here the Democrats hope to achieve the upset. Queried about Republican state- ments describing the recount as a publicity stunt, Downs answered that "we are in this to win." By CARL COHEN A Monroe County Grand Jury indicted three University of In- diana students yesterday on charg- es of subversion. Ralph Levitt, president of the Young Socialist Alliance on the Bloomington campus; James Bing- ham, secretary and former presi- dent, and Thomas Morgan, also a member of YSA, were indicted on charges of advocating violent over- throw of the United States gov- ernment. Levitt did not testify yesterday, but according to Indiana Dean of Students Robert Shaffer, "We have no reason to believe that his absence of the last few days is related to the case." Bingham, however, did testify. Forceful Doctrine The charges came as a result of a March 25 campus meeting spon- sored by the YSA, at which Leroy McRea, former candidate for New York attorney general, advocated "the doctrine that the government of the United States or of the state of Indiana should be over- thrown by force, violence, or any unlawful means." McRea told the meeting "We want political power. Those who have power have denied us our rights. We will achieve that nec- essary power one way or another." He added, "I say we will be ready to use either non-violence or vio- lence to achieve that aim." This -will be -the first test for a 1951 anti - Communist Indiana statute, which according to Shaf- fer "is similar to the Pennsylvania law that was declared unconstitu- tional in 1955." Dr. Robert Risk, president of the Indiana Civil Liberties Union, House Retains Death Penalty BOSTON (AP) - The Massachu- setts house last night reversed it- self and voted to retain the death penalty.

A man in a white frock pushes a button and for a fraction of a second an intense flash of light leaves the apparatus and enters the rabbit's eye. Oddly enough, the rabbit shows no signs of pain. This scene has taken place many times in the past in one of the laboratories situated somewhere in the maze of buildings and cor- ridors that make up the New York University Medical Center com- plex on First Ave. Ophthalmologists, Four ophthalmologists-doctors who study the structure, function and diseases of the eye-have been shooting light into rabbits' eyes: for the past few years with a laser.
