The quadrangle business office valued replacement of the missing trays at approximately $3000. The dining rooms had been us- ing military surplus trays since the disappearance was discovered Wednesday morning, and, though a search of the building failed to turn up the missing trays, they were later found in the basement, directly below the kitchen. Men Arraigned James Gilbert, '64E, David Cun- ningham, '63E, Robert Montgo- ery, '62, Fred Gelesko, '64E, and Thomas Groff, '63E, were arraign- ed before Municipal Judge James O'Brien Thursday. Gilbert and Cunningham, who had been apprehended in the kitchen, pleaded guilty and were charged with illegal entry; the others stood mute but were charg- ed 'with aiding and abetting. The men said that they had only taken the trays as a prank, that they had never actually in- tended to keep them. City police concealed a detectiv "in the quad kitchen early Tus day morning, after learning that another attempt was to be made to remove the trays. At 3:30 a.n-. he apprehended two masked men roaming about the kitchen, ap- parently attempting to steal more trays. Entered with Key The detective reported that the two men had entered the kitchen with a master key they had made. All five men were released on bond and will be tried in Muni- cipal Court next Thursday after- noon. Assistant Dean of Men John Bingley said that they will go before Joint Judiciary Council af- ter Thursday's court action. TGroup :Studies Exam Period Extension Plan The literary college steering committee is dicussing the possi- bility of extending the final exam period to allow some time to study before exams begin. A two week exam period would allow time for a week "reading period." This would be used to study and integrate the material learned during the semester. As a result there would be only one week for exams instead of the present week and a half. However, the steering committee felt that students would not mind having a tighter exam schedule if they had a week before hand to study. They also suggested the possi- bility of a three day "reading per- iod" and then a staggered exam schedule. This suggestion calls for three days of exams and then one day with no exams. Therefore no student can have more than three days of exams in a row, and his chances of having all his exams clumped together are reduced. I GUITAR and FLUTE MOCK COURT-A seminar class on Comparative Criminal Law held a mock court Thursday demonstrating German criminal procedure. The defendant lost his case when his wife refused to alibi for him when, on the stand, she learned the punishment for perjury. Clas on CriminalLaw Acts Out German Cou rt By CAROLINE DOW A watch, a wife, and an honest man played the key roles in a conviction at a mock trial in Hutchins Hall Thursday. A living example for Prof. B. J. George's seminar in Comparative Criminal Law, the proceedings followed German court. law, demon- strating the differences between German and American courts. Tried for Theft Two men were tried at the proceeding which concerned a stolen watch. The robber was convicted on evidence of his fingerprints, an- other man's story and his wife's refusal, on hearing the penalty for perjury, to alibi for him. In West Germany a man is innocent unless proven guilty, but there are strict rules on the admission of evidence. Hearsay and non- testimony are admitted. Choose Lay Judges Two lay judges chosen in the same method as an American jury sit with equal power as one professional judge. The three decide both the guilt and the sentence of the defendants as opposed to the Ameri- can system where the jury decides the case and the judge giving the sentence. Procedure is inquisitorial rather than adversary, mock court prosecutor Horst Niebler, '64L, said. As the prosecutor is responsible for presenting favorable as well as incriminating evidence, the judges ask most of the questions. In addition there are no histrionics in the court room, he said. Both the judge and the prosecutor have lifetime appointments and see no need for dramatics to hold their jobs NDEA Announces 31 Grants To Support LanguageStudies By MALINDA BERRY BERKELEY-A group of stu- dents from the University of Cali- fornia called "Students Associated Against Totalitarianism" has formed an organization of stu- dent "conservatives" in the Berke- ley area. Awaiting approval by the ad- ministration as an off-campus or- ganization, the group's purpose is "to oppose any expression of to- talitarian attitudes or propaganda and particularly the effects of Communist subversion and influ- ence." This would include United States military intervention in Commu- nist aggression in all parts of the world and the use of government agencies to prevent internal sub- version. Charles Fox, one of the mem- bers, emphasized that the group is autonomous and not associated with any other organization. He also said the group is concerned only with the issue of totalitarian- ism and subversion and with no is- sues peripheral to this topic. "We are opposed to totalitarianism on the right as well as on the left," he said. SAAT began its activities Satur- day by picketing a San Francisco rally which opposed intervention in Cuba. The group plans similar activities in the future. COLOMBUS-Liberals were vic- torious at the National Student Association's Spring Regional Con- ference to which Ohio State's Stu- dent Senate was host.

Seek To Change Bay City School Students of Delta College in Bay City set out Thursday to transform the junior college into a four-year school which would serve the Saginaw Valley. Saginaw Valley and Phoenix, Ariz. are the only two areas in the United States with populations over 100,000 which do not have four-year colleges. The students organized into the Student Association for Education and nominated an eight-member council which will work with the faculty and administration. They intend to lobby with both politi- cal parties to obtain state action. affairs, and civil rights were ap- proved. Among the legislation passed was: A proposal to send a state- ment to the Bowling Green Stu- dent Body President, administra- tion and newspaper, declaring academic freedom and freedom of the student press as fundamental to education in the democratic society. About a month ago the students at Bowling Green dem- onstrated protesting the lack of freedom in their newspaper. A bill supporting federal aid to education and rejecting any re- quirement for a loyalty oath or disclaimer affidavit. A resolution stating that the Ohio-Indiana region of NSA feels that the loyalty oath and dis- claimer affidavit required of Peace Corps recruits is detrimental to the intended apolitical character of the corps. A bill challenging the authenti- city of the movie "Operation Abo- lition" and the right of a Con- gressional committee to propa- gandize. s . . COLOMBUS - Student Senate at Ohio State University has voted to cancel plans to demonstrate against compulsory ROTC on Corps Day after Senate president Phil Moots stated that President Fawcett will propose a program of voluntary ROTC unless the De- fense Department feels compul- sory ROTC is necessary for na- tional security. MINNEAPOLIS - Snowballs and shouted interruptions from the crowd punctuated a protest rallyagainst the invasion in Cu- ba by the students at the Univer- sity of Minnesota. An estimated 1,200 persons at- tended the rally, sponsored by the Fair Play for Cuba Committee. Members of FPCC carried signs reading "Stop U.S. War on Cuba" and 'B-26 made in USA." John Chelstrom, the first speak- er, was interrupted periodically by jeers and shouts of disagreement from the crowd. When he called Castro's revolution in Cuba "one of the most popular revolutions in history," he was showered by snowballs. Sporadic flurries of snowballs continued throughout the rally, occasionally hittingtheir targets. CANBERRA, Australia - Prime Minister Robert G. Menzies said recently that the Australian gov- ernment plans to spend $450,000 a year on a new program to edu- cate students from the newly emerging nations, the New York Times reports. To launch the program, he ex- tended the invitation to the gov- ernment of newly - independent I 1~j IF BERKELEY-An unauthorized rally was sponsored by the Bay Area Students Committee to op- pose United States Intervention in Cuba. The rally was held in Duin- ella Plaza. According to the Dean of Stu- dents, "The Dean of Students of- fice must be notified of use of Dwinella Plaza at least one week in advance in order that no con- flicting meetings will be held and so that preparations for an orderly meeting can be made." This was not done with the rally. At the rally United States "mis- takes" in Cuban policy were cited. Maurice Zeitlin, a member of the committee, maintained that the United States is striving to pro- tect its economic and political in- terests without regard for the in- terests of the Cuban people. South Quadrants Initiate Members The South Quadrangle Quad- rants initiated ten new members in ceremonies Thursday night. Those tapped were Ray Ceriotti, '63E, Peter Freides, '63, Robert Geary, '63E, Leonard Gregory, '63, and Thomas McDole, '63E. Also initiated were Roger Pfeuf- fer, '64, Edward Powers, '63, Wil- liam Schultz, '61, Allen Smith, Grad, and Phillip Wynn, '62. s COCKTAILS " LUNCHEONS e AFTER-BOWLING SNACK 1950 So. Industrial Hwy.

Susan Stillerman, '62, president of Panhel, suggested that the an-' nual candy sale is perhaps not fulfilling its role as a unifying agent of Panhel. It was brought up that girls in some of the houses objected to be- ing asked to sell candy in a neigh- borhood that was as needy as the neighborhood being supported by the project. The candy sale in past years has] almost completely supported the] Ann Arbor Veteran Park in the city. It was suggested that a possible alternative to the candy sale, which would be more effective as a unifying agent, would be to have all the houses in Panhel contribute volunteer girls to work with eith- er the children in the local hospi- tals, the home for the aged, or the Ypsilanti State Hospital. Since so many girls would be involved, this project would de- mand only about 2 or 3 Saturdays a year per girl. Six or eight girls would go per week, two girls from three or four different houses. In this manner girls from the various individual sorority houses will have an opportunity to work together on tasks that would be more beneficial to the community. This plan will be acted upon by the Executive Council after it has been brought up in each chap- ter meeting. Gothic Film Society EARTH (dir. by Dovzhenko, District of Columbia, United States Commissioner of Education Ster- ling M. McMurrin announced Thursday. The funds will be used to sup- port 47 Language and Area Cen- ters during the 1961-62 academic year. The purpose of these centers is to strengthen the higher education facilities for the study of lan- guages. They will instruct college students to teach languages and related studies. The area centers will also provide specialized train- ing for individuals who plan to en- ter government service, industry, or business where the knowledge of such languages is required. Eleven of the centers will in- struct the study of languages and areas of East Asia. Ten will, be' concerned with Slavic languages! and studies, eight on those of the Near and Middle East, six on South' Asia, four on Sub-Saharan Africa, three on Southeast Asia, two on Portuguese, two on East Asian and Slavic languages and studies, and one on the Uralic-Altaic lan- guages. Nineteen of the 47 centers, which were authorized federal funds under the NDEA act, re- ceived initial support during the 1959-60 academic year. Twenty- seven new centers were added to the program. The Russian Language and Area Center at Vanderbilt Univer- sity, Nashville, will receive sup- port for the first time. The institutions, which are re- quired to contribute at least half of the , cost of the centers, plan to put up an additional $1 mil- lion above the required matching funds.
