A STUDENT DRIVE FOR THE ADMISSION of girls to Yale
University has gained momentum in recent weeks. Yale has
announced the formation of an exploratory committee, headed
by trustees but including faculty to explore the possibility.
A move by Yale would reflect a trend which included an
announcement by Wesleyan University that the institution's cur-
rent all-male set-up was being examined with a view toward pos-
sible admission of girls as students.

THE CONTROVERSIAL W.E.B. DU BOIS CLUB said re-
cently it would file suit against the federal government in New
York against the government's investigation of the group.
The U.S. Justice Department has called the DuBois clubs a
Communist front and has asked the subservice activities control
board to investigate the organization.
A DuBois club spokesman said $10,000 damages to be sought
in bcourt would e'for "damages to the reputations of individuals
in the club and material damage to our national headquarters
in San Francisco." The headquarters was bombed earlier this year.
A DuBois club chapter has recently been authorized at the
'University. An advisory faculty group composed of 13 professors
wrote to Attorney General Nicholas Katzenbach to inquire about
the status of the DuBois clubs.
In its reply, the Justice Department contended that the right
' of members of the DuBois clubs or anyone else to protest Viet
Nam policy has not been infringed in any way. The reply said
that an FBI investigation of the clubs found that they were
"created, dominated and controlled by the Communist Party
and primarily operated for the purpose of giving aid and support
to the Communist Party."
THE 1,500-MEMBER ACADEMIC SENATE of the Univer-
sity of California's Berkeley campus has voted to accept the most
revolutionary proposal of the Muscatine report on educational
reform-creation of a Board of Educational Development.
Described earlier by a faculty dissenter as a "university with-
in a university," the board, to be composed of six members who
will serve staggered three-year terms, will be charged with the
promotion of experimentation, innovation and change. It may
even set up new degree programs if the existing departments or
4schools appear too slow-moving. It may also seek additional
funds for innovation from private supporters and foundations.
It is expected that the board will become operational at once
under the leadership of Prof. Charles Muscatine, chairman of the
reform committee.
The Muscatine report contained 42 specific and controversial
recommendations for educational reforms. It was felt at Berkeley
that the speed with which the report's central recommendation
wvas adopted may have been partly due to the impetus which the
1964 Berkeley rebellion gave to the search for reform.
THE AMERICAN ASSOCIATION of University Professors
has honored Rutgers, the state university of New Jersey, for
support of academic freedom in the case of a professor who
oppdsed the Viet Nam war.
The award went to Rutgers President Mason W. Gross and
the university board of governors for refusing in 1965 to fire
Prof. Eugene Genovese.
Genovese's teachings and public statements became a political
issue when New Jersey Gov. Richard Hughes supported the school
officials. His opponent in last fall's election called for the
professor's dismissal. Hughes was re-elected by a large majority.
THE MICHIGAN HIGHER EDUCATION Facilities Commis-
sion has recommended the distribution of $1 million in federal
funds to the University for classroom and office building con-
struction. The total cost of the projects is $4.2 million.
The commission recommended a total of $20.3 million in
federal construction funds be distributed to 28 Michigan colleges
and universities. The recommendation was sent to the U.S. Office
of Education which administers the Federal Higher Education
Facilities Act.

SUMMER STUDENTS at the University will be required to
register their automobiles and motorcycles during the Spring-
Summer term, but permits purchased during the 1965-66 academic
year will be valid during the summer, Vice-President for Student
Affairs Richard Cutler announced.
The action makes automobile and motorcycle regulations
consistent with the general University policy of treating the
third (spring-summer) term precisely as the other two terms.
Although all students must register their automobiles and
motorcycles, the 21-year age requirement will be waived again
this summer. All other regulations will continue in effect.
Fees for the Spring-Summer term will be $1.75 for cars and
$1.50 for motorcycles. These amounts are based on the current
$5.00 fee for a 12-month period.
Teaching fellows, research assistants and persons with staff
paid permits will not be required to register. Students carrying
one course of three credit hours or less must register but the
fee will be waived.
THE SON OF A NEGRO DOCTOR has been appointed editor
of a weekly newspaper at Georgia Tech University. The student,
a senior in chemistry, had a nearly straight-A academic honors
and had been cited for academic achievement twice.

By The Associated Press
EDITOR'S NOTE; What does Rus-
sia's man in the street think about
Communism, America, S t a lii n,
Khrushchev or anything else? The
following dispatch gives one view,
perhaps typical, perhaps not. It
comes from an ordinary Russian
speaking his mind.
KIEV-"What difference does it
make whether Stalin, Khrushchev
or the devil is at the top as long
as the people live well?" the Rus-
sian inquired.
The next question, of course,
was how well do the people live?
He answered in a rambling dis-
course, openly stated after a rare
chance meeting outside official or
tourist channels. The man, who
cannot be identified by name,
spoke with three foreigners. His
words follow:
"Now we are doing everything
for heavy industry. We don't care
about trousers and suits.
"We have to go to the sky with
Sputniks. We have a lot of busi-
ness there. There is much more
to do down here.

"Here is a new restaurant. But
they can't even paint it. They have
no taste,
"I've been abroad to Socialist
countries. In Bulgaria, Czechoslo-
vakia and Rumania it's different
Everything is prettier.
"The Russians who go abroad
are treated like peasants, even in
fraternal Socialist countries.
"Here it is a little bit sad
Moscow has more restaurants,
more of everything. Of course you
can't buy anything in Moscow
either.
'Like the Chinese'
"We are trying to reach Com-
munism. I don't know how it will
look. Maybe it will be sad, maybe
we will all look the same way,
like the Chinese.
"I would be for opening all the
borders and letting everybody go
where he wants.
"If our people could go to Eng-
land they would buy all of Eng-
land. People here have money but
there is nothing to buy.

"I bought a Moskvitch car for
2500 rubles ($2750). These cars'
cost more now. You might think
that is expensive but its really
cheap because we have nothing to
spend our money on.
"You go to a store and buy a
car. I had to wait in line for eight
years for my car. Now the wait is
less. I waited eight years. It was
very convenient because in the;
meantime I managed to save the
money.
"If I could go to England or
America I would buy everything.
To See America
"I want to see America with my
own eyes. I've read about America
and seen films about America but
I want to see America with my
own eyes. For some reasons, I
don't know why, I want to see
America more than any other
country.
"But I thing there must be
chaos, so much noise.

"I don't like American life. I
get the impression that everyone
goes mad in America. I saw a pic-
ture of the stock exchange. Every-
one was fighting for money. Peo-
ple are after money, money, mon-
ey.
"I wonder whether democracy
really exists there.
"It must be very difficult for
poor men to live in America.
"The poor man sees beautiful
things in shop windows that he
cannot buy and feels worse than
we do. Perhaps this is because we
are not used to seeing anything in
shop windows.
"I like to talk. I like to say
what is wrong and what is good.
"I once invited a group of French
people to my home. The neighbors
asked why I was bringing home
foreigners. They were frightened
But there's nothing to be frighten-
ed about.
"Every country has its faults. I
like to say what I think."

DETROIT (P)-Northern High
School pupils and administrators
are continuing work toward set-
tlement of student grievances amid
reports that dissidents have set a'
deadline for implementation of
promised school reforms.
Student leaders Charles Colding
Michael Batchelor and Judy Walk-
er are reported to have said they
would ask 2300 youngsters to walk'
out of classes for a second time if
demands were not met in two
weeks.
However, a spokesman for De-
troit.Public Schools said Colding
called administrators to say nc
ultimatum had been issued and
that progress was being made in

efforts to reach agreement on
grievances.I
The school's predominantly Ne-
gro student body walked out April
20, boycotting classes four days
Originally they said they were pro-
testing what they termed inferior
education4 in inner city schools
Later they demanded removal of
Principal Arthur T. Carty as a
condition of ending their boycott
They returned to classes last
week after Carty was assigned by
School Supt. Dr. Samuel M. Brow-
nell to an office in the Schools
Center Building. Brownell has said
Carty retains the title of princi-
pal, although he is miles away.
