dy Committee Proposes Union-Le By BURTON MICHAELS 'line Union-League Study Committee has released its final recommendations calling for the establishement of a university center through a merger of the Michigan Union and Women's League. The Robertson Report suggests "a real university center, a coeducational organization serving the needs of all segments of the University community: students, faculty, alumni, administra- tion and their quests." The report is named after Study Committee Chairman Dean James H. Robertson of the literary college. Coed Activities The report recommends that a single university center govern- ing board replace the present Union and League Boards It also recommends that a single coeducational activities organization replace the existing Union and League activity groups. The report also suggests the immediate appointment of an implementation committee to work out details for establishing the center, hopefully by the spring of 1964. The report will be referred to a closed meeting of the League board tonight and the Union board Thursday night. If it receives approval, it will go to the Regents for final ratifica- tion. Service Center "The proposed center provides for a more representative and efficient group to operate a service center," former Union President Robert F. Finke, '63, member of the study committee who drafted the final recommendations, explained. It recognizes the responsibility of students to direct their programs independently. It places upon the University administra- tion the responsibility to expand service facilities and programs without further delay. "One of the reasons the new University Center will be better than existing facilities is that it could logically expand to some- thing like the North Campus Student-Faculty Center," Union President Raymond L. Rusnak, '64, added. Physical Facilities The single governing board which the report proposes will be responsible directly to the Regents. Its "real mission will be the management of physical facilities." It will also supervise the financing of student activities. The proposed board consists of four faculty members from the gue Mergei University Senate, four alumni from the Alumni Association and four executive officers of the proposed student activities organiza- tion. The vice-president for Business and finance or his represen- tative and the center's general manager as an ex officio without vote will also sit on the board, whose chairman may not be a student. The report explains the board's structure "as entirely new rather than an amalgamation of the present boards. It gives no single interest majority control," but stresses "equal rebresenta- tion" between students, faculty and alumni. Union Board The proposed board eliminates the present Union Board, con- sisting of the three student officers, the president of Student See STUDY, Page 2 RESIDENTIAL COLLEGE WELL PLANNED Y IMIE 60 4Elait COOL See Editorial Page High-60 Low-38 Scattered light showers, considerable cloudiness Seventy-Two Years of Editorial Freedom VOL.

Attempting to provide top-quality education within the confines of a very large institution, the new college would more closely link students' classroom experiences with their residence hall lives. It would be "associated with but- separate from" the pres- ent literary college and would provide a somewhat different 'LOW FACULTY MORALE': NCA Scored by EMU Faculty 0 BY MARILYN KORAL Eastern M i c h i g a n University faculty members yesterday charged that a political move to oust EMU President Eugene B. Elliott was behind the recent North Central Association of Colleges and Sec- ondary Schools investigation into "low faculty morale and adminis- trative difficulties" at EMU. The widely reported successor for Eliott is State Superintendent of Public Instruction Lynn M. Bartlett, whose post was eliminat- ed as an elective office under the new state constitution. State Board of Education Presi- dent Chris H. Magnusson had "no comment" when asked if the board planned to replace Elliott or other top administrators. 'No Objective Evidence' Bartlett yesterday denied that he was seeking. the position, while Elliott said he had "no objective Coup Fails In Turkey I TI ISTANBUL, Turkey VP)-Turk ish rebels led by a once-pardoned revolutionary ex-colonel attempt ed to seize power in Turkey yester- day, but the government claimed the coup d'etat had failed. Government troops quickly crushed the plotters in, Istanbu and ordered insurgents reported cornered in the war college in Ankara, the Turkish capital, to surrender or be bombed by air force jet planes already buzzing the besieged rebels. - The dissidents announced their coup shortly after midnight last night. Well in Hand By dawn, Turkey's high com- mand declared loyalist forces had the situation well' in hand and appealed for calm in this strong pro-Western nation. Ex-Col. Talat Aydemir, the reb- el leader making his second "bid for power, was reported among those holed up in Ankara's War College of Cadets after many ar- my troops ousted the insurgents Ifrom Radio Ankara. In serving the ultimatum, Tur- key's chief of staff, Gen. Cevdet Sunay, indicated that war college cadets had joined dissident army officers in a bid to unseat '78- year-old Premier Ismet Inonu's government. Misled Cadets Speaking over Radio Ankara, back on the air after a period of silence, Sunay declared, "I order some misled cadets and officers to surrender and retire to their bar- racks. Unless this is done, air force planes with all other armed forces units will attack." Sunay did not mention where the rebels were holed up, but earlier reports reaching Istanbul from Ankara said the insurgents had withdrawn to the war college and that army troops had it sur- rounded. Soon after Sunay's warning President Cemal Gursel, in a mes- curriculum as well as housing situation. "The committee is unanimously of the opinion that if the Uni- versity is to grow at all the es- tablishment of a small residential college is the optimal plan tc follow," the report said. Faculty Consideration d Prof. Lawrence Slobodkin of the - zoology department, chairman of - the Residential College Committee d which drew up the report, said yesterday that faculty considera- tion of the plan would probably l come this fall. If the idea is accepted, a final action committee would then be appointed to work out the admin- r istrative, curricular and logistical details. "Our proposals describe a col- lege which would not differ in either student-faculty ratio or running-cost expenditure per stu- dent for the college as a whole from the literary college," the re- port states. Requirements Maintained Maintenance of existing distri- bution and concentration require- ments in their essential form is recommended by the report. However, the number of course offerings in the residential college would be smaller. To retain graduate school recog- nition of work done in the resi- dential college, the report asks that conventional grades, course hour credits and meaningful course descriptions be kept. "This does not mean that inter- disciplinary courses or other de- partures from the present curricu- lum are not advisable but rather that we should be in a position, at all times, to translate our course descriptions and evaluations into those that are conventionally ac- ceptable to graduate schools. Build De Novo "Since we are able to build our curriculum and course require- ments de novo, we can try to avoid some of the uneconomical and educationally dubious repeti- tion of subject matter that has grown up in the literary college." For example, a student's first two years in the new college may differ from his first two years in the literary college in the follow- ing ways: I Clark Terms Organization Non-Partisan' By STEVEN HALLER The newly formed Conservative Federation of Michigan is a non- partisan group, having no specific platform but revolving around a set of basic political principles, Prof. John A. Clark of the en- gineering college said yesterday. Prof. Clark, who was elected one of the federation's three vice- presidents at its first convention May 18, noted that anyone could join the federation, regardless of his political affiliations, if he agreed with the basic principles. Among these is the idea that "man is a moral being and has the right to his own free will. He should be allowed to manage his own affairs to the extent that he does not interfere with the rights of another person under law." Free Market Prof. Clark added that the fed- eration also supports a free mar- ket and encourages the initiative of the indivial. "We believe that taxation should not be oppressive, nor should it be subjected to the arbitrary whims of the govern- ment," he said. "We are concerned with the threat of international Commun- ism to the sovereignty of the Unit- ed States and our freedoms and to the entire free world," Prof. Clark went on. "We also believe that there should be a realistic program to combat this threat, to replace the name-calling practices employed by certain extremist groups. We feel that the problem can be ap- proached on a positive basis, ra- ther than on a negative basis as it frequently is now," he noted. Endorse Candidates LYNN M. BARTLETT ... reported successor evidence" that he was involved "in a political battle." Prof. Robert Belcher, chairman of the EMU faculty council, said the faculty does not "think that college presidencies should be! berths for politicians." "It is almost taken for granted on the campus that Bartlett is interested in the presidency. He was active in seeking the presi- dency of Western Michigan Uni- versity, but was blocked by the state board," Prof. Donald F. Drummond, chairman of the his- tory and political science depart- ments, noted. Interested In Job "Many have felt that with El- liott close to retirement (three years) Bartlett is interested in the job," he said. The NCA study was ordered by the state board last January after Magnusson claimed they had re- ceived "repeated complaints" of low faculty morale and internal administrative problems at EMU. Conclusions of the study were reported at a private meeting Thursday between the state board and the NCA investigating com- mittee. The state board revealed the contents of the report to Elliott and the faculty council at a meeting Saturday. The report, of which only ex- cerpts were released, placed EMU problems in two categories, accord- ing to Elliott. First were "minor faculty gripes," w h i c h Elliott claimed he could clear up himself. The second category concerned "a greater definition of goals" for EMU, Elliott said. The NCA rec- ommended that the university be- come more involved in research. "Research is a sensitive issue with the faculty, simply because we don't have the funds for it. This would require more people and more equipment and, ncessar- ily, more money," Elliott noted. Detrimental Reputation Meanwhile, a student group, the Organization for EMU Action, charged that the "NCA probe has been handled in such a way as to be very detrimental to the uni- vessity's reputation. "The terminology used to de- scribe the problems of the univer- sity has been vague, general and evasive. This report should be made public," the group argued in a leaflet distributed on campus. Magnusson said, "At the pres- ent time the board has no inten- tions of making the full reportl public, but if we keep getting re- ports that attempt to sidetrack the; issue, we may." The state board plans to meetl with the EMU administrative staff at 1 p.m. tomorrow. Magnusson in-l dicated there would probably be a release following the meeting.1 Gov. George Romney yesterdayj asked Bartlett for a copy of the< report.1 X-T Negro Pupils Suspended From School, By The Associated Press BIRMINGHAM-More than 1,- 000 Negro pupils were ordered ex- pelled or suspended from school yesterday for their part in anti- segregation demonstrations. Negro leaders reacted by decid- ing to use legal means to fight the order. "We are authorizing our lawyers to look into the legal aspects of this matter and file suit in federal court on the grounds that the pupils had been expelled without a hearing," Martin Luther King, Jr., said. Negro Students In Cincinnati F. L. Shuttles- worth, head of the Alabama Chris- tian Movement for Human Rights, said yesterday expulsions or sus- pension of the Negro students means "we may have to get back on demonstrating." In Greensboro, S.C., mass ar- rests of Negroes demonstrating against segregation policies re- sumed last night and in Durham, some 55 miles to the east. 300 Arrested About 1000 singing, hand-clap- ping Negroes converged on down- town business establishments and at least 300 were arrested. They were taken to the Central Caro- lina Hospital, where about 500 other demonstrators have been held in temporary jail facilities. At Durham, arrests of an unde- termined number followed the march of about 1500 Negroes from city hall to the main business sec- tion. ollicials mat mignt innuence shopkeepers to customers. turn away Negro This ruling was laid down in seven cases, mostly centered on arrests during the 1960 campaign to integrate lunch counters . and other businesses in the South. In- volved were cases from Alabama, Louisiana, North Carolina, South Carolina, Georgia and Maryland. These appeals involved 44 indi- viduals but about 3000 other dem- onstrators adjudged guilty in sim- ilar cases long have been looking to the Supreme Court for word that might free them of these con- victions. The nine justices were unani- mous in laying down the princi- ple that public officials cannot See related story, Page 3 interfere with sit-ins so long as they are peaceful. However, the court did not draw a clear line of when a shopkeeper may on his. own refuse to serve Negroes or call police, to have them evicted from his property. , But a dissenting justice said a shopkeeper's right to bar certain customers on his own "has cer- tainly become a greatly diluted right, if it has not, indeed, been totally destroyed." Chief Justice Earl Warren, speaking for the court, said, "It cannot be disputed that under our decisions private conduct abridg- ing individual rights does no viol- ence to the equal protection See COURT, Page 3 KrCites 1Court (Ruling By MARY LOU BUTCHEb The United States Supreme Court avoided the narrower ques- tion of whether individuals may discriminate in business yesterday when it reversed the trespass con- victions of Negroes involved in sit-ins, Prof. Paul G. Kauper of the Law School said last night. The decision set a precedent in cases involving trespass charges where under local laws a shop- owner is placed under a duty to discriminate. Where there is no such law, the question of the con- stitutionality of discrimination by individual businessmen remains unanswered, he said. "This decision was not unex- pected. As long as local laws re- quire discrimination, there is strong pressure to comply." The Supreme Court decided that such practices, in accordance with state or local laws, violated the 14th amendment, Prof. Kauper said. Trespass Statutes "The court has, up to this point, carefully avoided the question of whether state enforcement of tres- pass statutes to protect the in- terest of a private person who pursues a discriminatory policy is unconstitutional," he noted. In making its decision, the court stopped short of ruling that an individual's business practice when enforced by a state trespass law is unconstitutional, Prof. Kauper pointed out. "The court said that it could not analyze a shopkeeper's motives in practicing discrimination since it could not say that the policies of the store owner were not influ- enced by the state law." Private Property If a state does have a law re- quiring discrimination, the state cannot justify trespass convictions as a protection of private property, Prof. Kauper noted. "In that case, the court must assume that a store owner is act- ing under compulsion and there- fore the state's action in enforc- ing the trespass statute is a viola- tion of the 14th amendment, since the state is using its power to en- force an unconstitutional state policy." Solicitor General Archibald Cox argued that as long as local laws require discrimination, the state must assume the responsibility for violating the Constitution because the shopkeeper is forced to refuse to serve Negroes by law, not by choice, Kauper pointed out. Private Discrimination "However, the court has not de- cided that it is unconstitutional for a state to protect and enforce Dedicate Kresge Institute Republicans Cite Distortion WASHINGTON (P) -- A House Republican study group accused the Kennedy administration yes- terday of misinforming the public about the situation in Cuba and distorting intelligence with pre- conceived ideas about likely Soviet steps in the Caribbean.
