LXXI, No. 106 ANN ARBOR, MICHIGAN, FRIDAY, MARCH 3, 1961 FIVE CENTS SIX PEACE CORPS: Guskin Sees 'Crucial' Period By BEATRICE TEODORO The period before Congress acts on the proposed peace corps is a "crucial time" for students who are not satisfied with the program under State Department supervision, Alan Guskin said. President John F. Kennedy's message to Congress Wednesday ordering the corps, established only the temporary "pilot corps" under the Mutual Security program. Therefore, it is necessary for students "to make a definite commitment and to attempt' to influence Congress" to detach the corps from past foreign policy before legislation on the permanent corps is passed, Guskin said. Guskin, the spokesman for Americans Committed to World Re- sponsibility, said he was encouraged by part of Kennedy's message jwhich recommended that much of Power Says All-Year. Sc. ' Will Begi hedule i 196i ' '. Arrests End, Bias Protest In Carolina COLUMBIA, S.C. () - Hymn- singing Negro students from a number of South Carolina cities marched on the state house at Columbia Thursday protesting what one student described as "the indignity and inhumanity of segre- gation." . Police broke up the demonstra- tion and arrested 188 Negroes- including 65 women - one white youth and an official of the Na- tional Association for the Ad-' vancement of Colored People. They were charged with breach of the peace and bonds set at $50 each. About 150 white persons watched the demonstrators. There were no violent incidents. Met at Church The students met at the nearby Zion Baptist Church for about an hour and then began walking to- ward the State House in groups ranging in number from 12 to. about 17. This was in keeping with requests of city officials.- At the capitol, the first group was met by Harry Walker, legal aide to Gov. ErnestF. Hollings. Walker told them they could walk around the State House like any- body else, but said demonstrations would not be tolerated. One of the arrested Negro youths, David Carter of Benedict College, urged the students to en- ter the state house grounds. Protest 'Indignity' "We are protesting the indignity and inhumanity of segregation," he called out. "Do you want to go to Jail for your rights?" The re- sponse was a chorused "yes." The group advanced and arrests were made. Other groups singing the hymn "We Are Not Afraid" moved in and wholesale arrests followed. At Lynchburg, Va., six jailed Negro students refused again to eat while awaiting a hearing on anti-trespass charges in a sit-in demonstration. They began the hunger strike Tuesday because they said they were not allowed. textbooks. the permanent program be ad- ministered by "private organiza- tions and institutions, financially assisted by the Federal Govern- ment. Several Plans Under this plan, peace corps members would be sent to develop- ing nations through: 1) private voluntary agencies carrying on international assist- ance prqgrams; 2) overseas programs of col- leges and universities; 3) assistance programs of inter- national agencies; 4) federal assistance programs; 5) new programs which "the peace corps itself will directly ad- minister." The corps would be responsible for recruitment, training and de- velopment of overseas projects in the majority of cases, the message said. In other cases, a pool of trained.corpspersonnel would be made available to private organ- izations undertaking projects "ap- proved by the peace corps." How- s a ApplicatLions Applications for the peace corps will be available in Wash- ington on Tuesday, Prof. Sam- uel P. Hayes of the economics department announced yester- day.

Leave for Conference Guskin said that' he and his wife, Judy, are leaving today to take part in the National Coor- dinating Committee meeting of the National Conference on Youth Service Abroad this weekend in Washington, D. C. ALAN GUSKIN ... expresses doubt TO GOP: I Ctes Value Of Ideolog lf gy 1 1 "We are in a life and death struggle for the minds of men," John S. Pingel, Republican can- didate for the' Michigan State University Board of Trustees, told a meeting of Ann Arbor Republi- cans last night., He said that while the Com- munists concentrate on the teach- ing of engineering and scientific technology they neglect the hu- manities and cultural topics in their schools. He emphasized that- American citizens must not neglect the importance of humanities in educations in the quest to com- pete with Soviet technology. Referring to the teaching of Communism to American students he said, "Communism on campus should be confined to social §tu- dies classrooms. Furthermore it should be taught on a biased basis, biased in our favor." The 1961 platform for the com- ing city elections was also ap- proved last night. The platform stressed the fact that the Uni- versity is the city's largest em- ployer. The platform stated, "Rec- ognizing this economic interde- pendence of Ann Arbor residents, we insist that all elected officials ... work for an equitable solution to the financial needs of the Uni- versity." ' WSU Students Form Party For Action Wayne State University students have formed a new campus politi- cal party. The primary issue the party has taken a stand on at present is the recent suspension of the three uni- versity political clubs, Chuck Lo- gan, spokesman for a group of party members who visited the University said last night. The party, which presently con- tains about only 20 members, plans to hold an organizational rally on the WSU mall at noon today. Logan also said that the party would present the university ad- ministration with an ultimatum to return the suspended political par- ties' recognitions. If the university administration has taken no action by 10 a.m.' Monday, the group then hopes to start picketing the WSU Adminis- tration Bldg. Logan said that the group does not intend the political club issue to be its only issue. Rift Cancels~ HUAC Film Scheduling By PAT. GOLDEN A planned showing of the film "Operation Abolition" was can- celled last night amid dissension between campus political clubs, Cinema Guild and Student Gov- erment Council. The film deals with student riots at the House Un-American Activities Committee (HU AC) hearing in San Francisco last May. SGC is currently considering a motion to condemn it because of alleged distortions and incorrect inferences. Cinema Guild Board chairman Fred Neff, '63, had arranged con- tinuous showing of the film for Monday night after SGC decided not to makehtheir viewing a spe- cial public showing. Insure Fairness Wednesday night SGC placed several stipulations on the Cinema Guild showing to insure fair pre- sentation of the issue. The Council asked that a short introduction of both positions, excerpts from tape recordings of the HUAC hearings in San Francisco and an open discussion accompany the film. Neff said that he was willing to comply with SGC's stipulations, but he insisted that the film be shown twice during the evening., Show Twice "Cinema Guild has a policy of either making a film available to all students who want to see it, or not showing it at all. The Arch- itecture Auditorium only holds 300 people, so I think we must show the film twice.dk , SGC President John Feldkamp said that when the Council asked that the program include more than just the film, it was no longer a question of Cinema Guild's two-showing policy. A second issue involved was a conflict between the "Operation Abolition" showing and a Political Issues Club sponsored showing of "White Paper," a documentary film on the Nashville, Tenn. sit-in demonstrations. Avoid Conflicts According to calendaring regu- lations, SGC cannot calendar two events on the same night when they would conflict. "Both films are political, although they deal with different issues. A lot of the same people will want to see both," PIC President Sharon Jeffrey, '63, said. Because he and Feldkamp were unable to find an equitable way to present the full introduction, film, tape and discussion program twice Monday night, Neff can- celled "Operation Abolition." He then made tentative arrange- ments with 'William Sikkemga, '61BAd., president of YoungAmer- icans for Freedor, to obtain another film concerning HUAC for showing Monday night. This film is a debate between Martin Mc- Kneally, past national commander of the American Legion, and Rep. James Roosevelt (D-Calif) on the question "Should Congressional investigations of loyalty be curb- ed?" -AP wirephoto NORTH AFRICAN LEADERS-Premier Ferhat Abbas of the Algerian Rebels, right, Tunisian President Habib Bourguiba, left, and Morocco's King Hass an II held a conference in Rabat Morocco Wednes- day. It resulted in the acceptance by the Algerian rebels of French President de Gaulle's proposal for talks to end the Algerian War. ee FencGoodwill Gesture TUNIS (R')-The Algerian rebelv command said last night it expects France soon will make a spectacu- lar goodwill gesture aimed at speeding direct negotiations to end the Algerian rebellion. The rebels, who this morning accepted French President Charles de Gaulle's bid for peace talks,' said they have "strong indica- tions" France will transfer a top rebel leader from prison to a guarded residence near Paris as a gesture of good faith. He is Ahmed Ben Bella, honor- ary rebel deputy premier captured by the French in 1956 and impris- oned since on they island of Aix. Ben Bella hold enormous prestige Subcommittee Approves Area Fund Measure WASHINGTON ()- A Senate banking subcommittee late yester- day approved a $394-million de- pressed areas bill largely in line with President John F. Kennedy's recommendations. On one important aspect, how- ever, the subcommittee voted 5-4 to put the new program under an independent agency rather than in the Commerce department as Kennedy had recommended. The President said a new agency would be acceptable if congress thought it best. The legislation is expected to be cleared by the full banking com- mittee early next week and taken up in the Senate soon thereafter. The measure, whose chief spon- sor is Sen. Paul H. Douglas (D-Ill), the subcommittee chairman, was approved in the subcommittee with only one dissenting vote, that of Sen. Wallace F. Bennett (R-Utah). But Sen. Prescott Bush (R- Conn), said he reserved the right to seek changes in the full com- mittee. among the rebels and they have demanded he be included in any peace talks. Accept Offer Rebel Premier Ferhat Abbas an- nounced acceptance of de Gaulle's bid at a conference in Rabat, Morocco, with King Hassan ITof Morocco and President Habib Bourguiba of Tunisia. He softened rebel demands for independence, saying in a joint communique after the conference that Algeria intends to join Mor- occo and Tunisia in a loose feder- ation that would retain friendly ties with Paris. Rebel officials said only "techni- cal details" now separate them from meeting the French to dis- cuss an end to the war that in 6% years has cost thousands of lives on both sides. Unexplained Absence In Paris, the unexplained ab-. sence of Algerian Affairs Minister Louis Joxe gave support to re- ports of behind-the-scenes activ- ity. It appeared efforts toward a cease-fire were being intensified through secret channels. But a cease-fire no longer is a French condition for talks. Infor- mation Minister Louis Terrenoire disclosed de Gaulle told Bourguiba in Paris Monday he no longer in- sists the rebels lay down their arms before negotiations start. Rebel leaders always have refused this condition, saying a cease-fire would rob them of their most im-, portant weapon-the war itself. Europeans Riot Meanwhile, more than 2,000 irate Europeans marched into the center of Oran, Algeria, last night, manhandling Moslems and burn- ing their vehicles to avenge the deaths of two middle-aged French. women at the hands of a mob Tuesday. \ Emergency reinforcements of troops and mobile guards set up barricades to ,separate mobs of, Europeans on one side and a quickly growing mob of Moslems on the other.

Of January Board Action Future Pressures Of Population Rise Important Factor By PHILIP SHERMAN and SANDRA JOHNSON ti The University will very likeb go on a full-year cale'ndar b September 1962, Regent Eugen B. Power said last night. The decision was made in prin ciple at the Board's January meet ing, he added. It was based on the anticipated demands for hiher education b an expanding population, and th Board's realization that state capi. tal outlay appropriations woul not allow for sufficient physica expansion to meet them. The full year calendar will help the Uni versity to meet its obligations t4 the state's citizens, Power said. Open Minds He said the Regents do not'hav 1 "closed mind" on the matter and would listen toany objection but he argued that many relevan factors have already been care fully considered. The eight-man faculty calenda commission; appointed Wednesda: by University . President Harla Hatcher, will work out detaile4 proposals which the Regents wil act upon at their May or Jun meetings. The committee was appointe because the Regents would lik "the benefit of the thought ani discussion of the faculty," Powe said. He "supposed they could sa: no if that. was their conviction, but doubted they would. To Meet SAC (Power said that the Senat Advisory Committee met with th Regents in January and wa "overwhelmingly in favor of th full-year academic schedule," fo the same reasons the Regent adopted it in principle.) Prof. William Haber of th economics department, commissio chairman, declined to speculat about the alternative calenda plans the commission will stud Its first meeting takes place to day, he said. "The alternative arrangement are not mysterious," he continue "Our main objective must be t maintain the high standards c instruction and research whic have made, the University grea nationally and internationally. Explore Arrangements "It is a proper inquiry to ex plore whether some arrangemen other than the semester syster can make it possible for a large number of qualified students" t attend the University. "There are important consider ations to keep in mind in 'an change that may be formulatec The object of the commission is t explore all aspects of the probler and, particularly, to provide th fullest opportunity for consulta tion with all faculties in the Uni versity and with student opinio: as well." (The committee is also charge to review such matters as regis tration proceedures, course offer ings and similar items.) Finish Faster Powers said that students ea: finish college faster under th proposed plan, if they want t "The idea. of getting the sumime off to work on the crops is. nc applicable any more." Financial details of the calen dar lengtheninghave not bee: worked ,out because its exact na ture has yet to be determined. However, teachers will not teacl more.hours than at present. Mor academic staff, will have to b hired, he explained. Regent Donald M. Thurber sai the Regents had considered a cal mder alteration "from time t time" in the past.

The Hoosiers picked up firsts from sophomores Alan Somers in the 1,500 meters freestyle (17:49.9) and John Roethke in the 200-yd. individual medley (2:04.0). Both times set new Big Ten records. Michigan piled up a whopping 21 points when Win Pendleton, Warren Uhler, John Dumont, and John Urbancsok took the next four places behindSomers- in the 1,500-meters. In the one-meter diving, Michi- gan's Bob Webster is third in a field of eight finalists with 252.1 points.

Stevenson counseled the Soviet Union yesterday to "think twice" about intervening in Africa. to By JOHN ROBERTS Chairmen of large departments are the "forgotten men" of high- er education, Prof. James K. Pol- lock, head of the (large) political science department, said yester- day. Prof. Pollock, who will leave the chairmanship at the end of this semester, pointed out that the "reputation of a university is made or lost" at the departmental level, associate deans-but I have only my two secretaries," he added. Prof. Pollock continued. it is "dif- ficult to properly supervise the work of the department." Prof. Pollock has been chairman of the political science depart- ment for fourteen grim years. He will continue as a University fac- ulty member after his resignation as chairman. During his tenure, Prof. Pollock said that the politi- limited the time he could devote to it. He intends to resume han- dling a recitation section in a large introductory course so that he will come into more contact with undergraduates. Prof. Pollock did not speculate on a successor. He said that the executive committee of the liter- ary college would make recom- mendation to the Regents, and that he would have no say in the Williams chapter President Alvord Rutherford said. Rutherford expressed his belief that his chapter will be able to answer'satisfactorily any questions which have been, posed. The extension action was the result of a high council of the national which met with chapter members last month to discuss the problem at Williams. The original injunction came after a Beta alumnus complained to the na- tional about the situation at the Williams chapter.
