the administration's recent sus-

In outlining a new seven-point
program to "spur the development
of Michigan's great economic po-
tential," Gov. John B. Swainson
yesterday called for expansion of
the University's Institute of Sci-
ence and Technology as a center
for giving impetus to "growth"
industries which thrive on scien-
tific research.
In his message to the Iegisla-
ture, Swainson also proposed the
establishment of a Greater Michi-
gan. Authority which would make

loans to local or regional industrial
development groups such as the
commission behind the Ann Arbor
Research Park. He requested an
initial $1.5 million appropriation
to get the measure into operation
The authority would loan up to
30 per cent of the cost of projects
"in critical economic areas" and
would provide up to 20 per cent of'
costs in other areas.

that "in its brief life, the Institute

L eads Way
To F inals
By BRIAN MacCLOWRY
Speciar to The Daily
CHAMPAIGN, Ill.--To no one's
surprise, Michigan seems well on
its way to winning its third con-
secutive Big Ten, indoor track
championship here today.'
Last night the Wolverines domi-
nated the preliminaries by quali-
fying a 'resounding 12 track men'
for today's semi-finals and finals.
Runner-up so far is Indiana
with eight qualifiers, followed by
Iowa and Purdue with five, Michi-
gan State, Minnesota and North-
western with four, Wisconsin with
two, and a surprisingly poor 1ii-
nois with one.
Deceptive Figures
These figures are somewhat de-
ceptive, however, as there are no
preliminaries in -two of Michigan's
.strongest events-the 60-yard dash
and the mile run.
One final event was held last
night. That was the broad jump,
which was won by Illinois' defend-
ing champion, Paul Foreman, with
a leap of 24'11". It was his best
effort' of the year, and came at an
opportune time, as three other
jumpers -- including Michigan's
Les Bird-also turned in their best
jumps of the year.
Bird, limping slightly because of
a chronic sore leg, gritted his
teeth for the big effort, and soared
24'3/2", good for second place. It
marked a gallant comeback for
the lithe senior, who two years ago
set a Michigan indoor record of
24'101", but had failed to near
that mark again until last night.
Akpata Third.
Sonny Akpata of Michigan State
was third with a leap of 241/"
and Reryck Taylor of Illinois was
fourth with 24'1/4" in a close fin-
ish.
Illinois Total Tops
Thus, after the meet's first day,
Illinois leads inetotal number of
points, with seven to Michigan's
four. This is ironic, however, since
the big surprise so far is Illinois"

man for today's action. The Illini

Montpetit Stars ' .
Let by Montpetit, who qualified
in five events, Michigan sends 17
men into the finals as do the Illini.
The Spartans follow with 14 qual-
ifiers.
The Wolverines hold the upper
hand at this point, however. In
addition to their five-point lead,
they qualified higher than the Il-
lini i nmany events, and if posi-
tions remain as they now stand,
the final score would be Michi-
gan, 1501, Illinois, 116%; and
Michigan State, 88.
Still in Doubt
However, both Michigan Coach
Newt Loken and Illinois Coach
Charlie Pond stress that the meet
is far from decided. The perform-
ers' official score in each event
will be the -average of their scores
in the qualifying and final ses-
sions, and in most cases, there is
a separation of less than 10 points
between the first and tenth place
qualifiers.'
Montpetit was by far the day's
outstanding all-around performer.
The Wolverine senior overwhelm-
ed Hadley, 551-535.75, in the all-
events while qualifying at least
fourth in the five events in which
he competed. Wolverine Jim Hynds
was third in all-events with 495
points.
The all-events includes free ex-
ercise, side horse, high bar, par-
allel bars, still rings, and long
horse. The latter is an Olympic
event which is used only in de-
termining all-events champion
and does not count in the final
team totals.

Stirs Enthusiam
George Hill, temporary chair-
man of the party, said that the
meeting "was intended to stir up
student enthusiasms on the cam-
pus-something that has not been
done at WSU for a long time," and
that he was satisfied with its suc-
cess.
Both students and faculty mem-
bers present at the rally signed
up as members of the new or-
ganization, Hill said. He cited the
issue of the political club recog-
nition "only a catalyst for the
formation of the new group."
However, he said, most of the
questions raised by the audience
at the organizational meeting were
on this issue.
Clubs Suspended
The three campus political clubs
had their recognition suspended by
their supervisory committee last
week, and one of them has been
denied the chance to regain its
status because of non-fulfillment
of 1954 deans' council regulations
for such clubs.
Hill said that the major aims of
the new party were to work for
"academic freedom and respon-
sible student government, neither
of which is present as it should
be on the campus."
Seek Recognition
The party group announced that
it would seek university recogni-
tion in the near future, and in-
tended to run candidates for SFC.
On-campus politica action
groups concerned with university
issues do not come under the poli-
tical club supervisory committee,
and the new group would presum-
versy over the suspensions.

Senate Votes
To Authorize
New Judges
WASHINGTON (AP) - The Sen-
ate yesterday voted to authorize
73 new federal judges-the biggest
single addition ever proposed in
the federal judiciary.
"These are choice political
plums," Sen. Everett M. Dirksen,
(R-Ill), who led a losing Repub-
lican fight to delay action on the
measure, said.
Dirksen told the Senate the in-
itial cost of creating a new dis-
trict judgeship, including expenses
for the first year, is $90,000. The
first year cost of adding a judge
to the Federal Circuit Court of
Appeals, he said, is $72,600.
Creates New Jobs
The- bill which the Senate ap-
proved by voice vote and sent to
the House would set up 63 ad-
ditional district judges in 32 states
and Puerto Rico, and would pro-
vide for 10 additional circuit court
judges.
Onthe basis of Dirksen's fig-
ures, that would add up to an
initialcost of $6,396,000. Dirksen'
said the annual cost, would drop
somewhat after the first year,
Federal judges receive a mini-
mum of $22,500 a year and col-
