VSU Budget Request
University Asks $4 Million Rise
From Last Year, $19 Million Total
Wayne State University was received coolly by legislators Tuesday
't when it took them a request for almost $4 million more from
state this year than last.
Requesting almost $19 million as its operating budget for this
r, the university asked about $3 million more tlian dov. John B.
ainson had requested for WSU in his budget recommendations.
The request for $3,935,548 more in the budget was explained
approximately 40 legislators at a dinner with WSU President
4ence B. Hilberry and members of the university's Board of
ernors.
Salary Increase
Hilberry said that $1,169,242 would go towards a 7.3 per cent
ulty salary increase the university wishes to institute; $222,440 to

$56,000 towards scholarships;
$1,513,534 to balance the costs of
an increased general enrollment;
$251,399 for equipment, and $450,-
000 towards a contingency fund.
As the university's requests came
under fire from legislators, many
of whom asked where they were
expected to get the money to
give WSU, Hilberry admitted that
he did not really expect the Legis-
lature to provide for the entire
salary increase or the contingency
fund.'
But Hilberry warned that if
WSU is not granted an increase in
its funds, it will be forced to turn
away qualified Michigan students
seeking to enroll and perhaps deny
them any higher education in the
process.
Expect More Students
By PAT GOLDEN
A motion to investigate joint
judiciary council won approval in
Student -Government Council last
night, but action was postponed
on two student rights motions.
The Council established a 4
member committee, to look into
joint judic's application of due
process of law, its suggested re-
visions of University regulations
and its "theoretical and actual
relationship" to the deans' offices,
the University committee on stu-
dent conduct, and that conmmit-
tee's subcommittee on discipline.
A committee of the whole SGC
discussed a motion deploring the
chemistry department's use of
non-academic evaluation cards.
Not Qualified
Proponents of the motion claim-
ed that teaching fellows who in-
structed large sections of an in-
troductory science course that ful-
filled a distribution requirement
were not qualified to answer
questions about a student's politi-
cal affiliations and loyalties or
his social adjustment.
The opposition's argument was
that graduate schools, scholarship
committees and prospective em-
ployers request this sort of infor-
mation and it is to the student's
advantage to have it available.
The motion states that the eval-
uations are unrelated to the stu-
dents' academic competence and
intelectual integrity, and that they
inhibit students in their willing-
ness to speculate and to form
political and social associations.
Sponsor of the motion, Daily
Editor Thomas Hayden, '61, com-
mented, "While I am worried
about the fact that unqualified
people are making judgments
which are potentially harmful, I
am more concerned about the
present climate of fear which such
practices create at the Univer-
sity."
Inaccurate Evaluations
"It is partly because of the
existence of such unqualified and
inaccurate evaluations that stu-
dents are afraid to express opin-
ions and commit themselves to
signing. petitions and openly sup-
porting controversial issues.",
A similar problem was involved
in a motion by Roger Seasonwein,
'61, to eliminate a University reg-
ulation that student organizations
must file complete membership
lists with the University. Season-
wein pointed out the possibility
that membership per se may at a,
later date be used to intimidate
persons.
SGC also accepted the proced-
ures of the committee on member-
ship in student organizations.

The forced depledging of a Jew-E
lsh student from Phi Delta Theta1
at Lake Forest College should have
no effect on the University chap-
ter of the. fraternity, its presidentl
predicted last night.I
"I don't see how it could have,
any bearing on our chapter here,"
Duane Wasmuth, '62E, said. "The
chances are nine out of 10 that
he was not dropped because he
was Jewish."
A five-man national council or-
dered the Lake Forest Chapter to
depledge the Jewish freshman. His-
removal was asked because Phi
Delt is "founded on Christian prin-
ciples and we feel that Christian
beliefs must be practiced by the
members," John Shetman, a mem-
ber of the council said.
"The case at Lake Forest is not
a matter of the student being Jew-
ish, but rather a matter of this
student not being able to_ com-
pletely accept Christianity and, as
far as we know, not being a mem-
ber of any Christian church," he
explained.
Lawrence McLain, the Phi Delt.
president at Lake Forest said his
fraternity is discussing what ac-'
tion it should take and would an-
nounce a decision next week.
Officials of the Presbyterian af-
filiated school in Illinois criticized
the council's action and asserted it
was because of the student's reli-
gious background.
Lake Forest's dean of students
said he. was working closely with
the PhiDelts to reach "a satis-
factory course of action." He ex-
plained that the college has a
policy against discrimination, but
has not set a specific deadline to
remove bias rulings or practices.
Wasmuth said that Phi Delt did
not have a bias clause in its con-
stitution. A ruling limiting mem-
bers to "male, white persons of full
Aryan blood not less than 16 years
of age" was replaced in 1954 by
one 'allowing "such (persons) as
are socially acceptable to all mem-
bers of the fraternity."
He added that the Phi Delts
practice "as much local autonomy
as is possible on the university
campus."

He also noted that "with the

gan students seeking to enter
Wayne who otherwise would go out
of the city or state to other uni-
versities."
Rep. Harry J. Phillips (R-Port
Hron), vice - chairman of the
House Ways and Means Commit-
tee, asked how he. could be ex-
pected to justify any increase in
expenditure to an unemployed
person.
Board member Michael Ference
answered him by saying that the
Legislature should not "let the
recession beat down a first-class
university. You have to give raises
to keep your staff, like private
industry."
Sen. Clyde H. Geerlings (R-
Holland), chairman of the Senate
Tax Committee, warned against
any tax raises to finance increas-
ed expenditure, saying that "the
people voted the one-cent sales
tax increase last November and
they are adamant that this solved
the financial problem."

"evolutionary" theory has

Hoyle of Cambridge and
findings are decisive evi-
dence for the 'evolutionary' theory
if they can be proven to be ac-

The radio astronomers' evidence
was given some early verification
at a meeting of the International
Scientific Radio Union in London
in September, he said. But similar
evidence which was introduced
about five years ago had to be
revised after it washcriticized
heavily, he noted.
The significance of the Cam-
bridge findings hinge on whether
or not they have been distorted by
systematic errors in observing the
faint radio sources, Prof. Wil-
liam E. Howard of the astronomy,
department said.
Exciting Results
"If there are no errors, they are
very fundamental and exciting re-
sults," he said.
The new findings are "strong
evidence" in support of the "evolu-
tionary" theory, Prof. Peter A.
Franken of the physics depart-
ment said. But he also added that
they still must be substantiated.
He pointed up the wide pos-
sibility for errors in deriving in-
formation about "radio stars" by
comparing their spectra with
those of known galaxies.
Meanwhile, the search for more
clues to the origin of the universe
"should put our understanding of
its origin on a firmer basis within
a decade from now," Prof. Howard
said.
University astronomers are gath-
ering "contributing evidence" on
the question, but radio telescope
equipment here uses radio fre-
quencies which are too high for
work like that done at, Cambridge,
Prof. Haddock explained.

Kennedy Possesses 'Savvy'
For Presidenc Cater Says,
By PHILIP SUTIN
President John Kennedy has the political savvy needed for the
presidency, Douglass Cater, Washington editor of the Reporter maga-
zine said in his lecture yesterday on "The New Presidency."
He noted that the American people at various times have sought
qualities in their president. CQmmonly, when they sought adminis-
trators, they turned to businessmen; when they wanted a stirring
a',

leader they chose military men.
The prime quality needed is that
of a politician, Cater noted.

--
Limited Powers
With his executive powers lim-
ited, a president's chief power is
persuasion fo the two publics to
which he is responsible-the na-
tional politicians and the general
public. To do this a president
needs political awareness. "He
must be aware of the political
stakes," Cater observed.
Although it is too early to make
a definite assessment of Kennedy,
Cater noted several attributes
which tend to make him a good
president.
The President has shown re-
markable success in selecting his
officials, despite the fact he knew
few of them.
Man in Motion
"Another capacity Kennedy has
shown is that of presidential en-
ergy. He is a man in motion,"
Cater said.
This leads to another attribute
of massive curiosity. "Kennedy is
impatient with fuzzy, imperfect
ideas and has gathered around
him intellectuals and idea mak-
ers," he observed.
Kennedy also has composure and
the ability to speak with detach-
ment and precision.
CONSIDERS 'NEGRO REVOLUTION':
Williams Lauds New Cuban Freedom
By WILFRED ROY
Negro integrationist leader Robert F. Williams delivered a 20
minute address on the Negro Revolution: Cuba and the South, which
immediately plunged into. a heated two hour debate here last night.
Williams stressed the "humanitarianism of the Cuban Revolu-
tion," and its lack of racial discrimination saying, "I enjoyed a
freedom (while in Cuba) I have never enjoyed here.
"Cuba to me is a symbol, a -hope for tomorrow," Williams said.
He repeatedly pointed out that in Cuba predjudice is legislated away
and called it a model for Southern States to follow.
Violent Dispute
Immediately upon opening the floor to questioning a staff physi-
clan for the University, a Cuban doctor until last November, now a
Cuban refugee, violently disputed several of Williams claims.
The doctor agreed with Williams that the Southern racial situa-
tion needed solution, but he stated that Cuba has always had integra-
tion and that Castro had nothing to do with its conception.
The doctor stated that he had been pro-Castro at the revolution's
beginning, but that Cuba had become a "police state."
Withholds Name
The doctor refused to disclose his name, saying that he was no
politician, said further that any man who spoke "out against the
policy of Castro .. they would put him to the wall."
Debate continued until 11 p.m. when John Erfurd, Grad., co-
