LXXVI, No. 29S ANN ARBOR, MICHIGAN, TUESDAY, JUNE 14, 1966 SEVEN CENTS FOUR PAGES Northfield 1 Accelerator Hopes Rise AEC Officials Visit Site Near Ann Arbor On 'Routine' Tour Ann Arbor's chances of being selected as the site for /' the pro- posed $350-million, 200-billion electron volt atomic particle accel- erator were bolstered over the weekend, University Vice-Presi- dent for Research A. Geoffrey Norman said. A group of Atomic Energy Com- mission officials were conducted on their fourth tour of the pro- posed site in nearby Northfield Township. Additional drillings had been undertaken in the area since the AEC's last visit on April 7. Norman said AEC Chairman Glenn Seaborg and members of his group touring sites through- out the nation had requested fur- ther information on the water table and materials underlying the proposed site in Northfield. The drillings were made and a report sent to the AEC three weeks ago, Norman reported. Prof. Donald E. Eschman, chairman of the University's geology and m -in eralology department, briefed the AEC tour group on the new find- ings Saturday. Norman said the new drilling, which also involved pumping quantities of ; water to determine the effect at other drilling sites on the tract, confirmed previous indications that a suitable foun- dation for the huge, mile-in-dia- meter accelerator is present at the proposed site. A solid foundation is necessary to prevent the ex- tremely precise equipment from settling and losing what Norman '9~ called its "resolution," its ability to focus the -high-energy beam that is the machine's heart. The tests also indicated suffi- cient ground water is available for cooling. AEC commissioner James T. Ramey headed the AEC group on Saturday's "routine" tour. Ramey had not previously visited the Northfield site. Ramey emphasized that no de- cision has yet been made on which site wlil be awarded the highly- prized facility. The community surrounding the site is likely to experience rapid economic growth because of the facility's "spin-off" effects. In addition to Ann Arbor, sites in Colorado, Wisconsin, Cal- ifornia, Illinois and Long Island, N.Y.,' are being considered. AEC Washington officials have recently denied rumors that a s decision had been made to locate the accelerator at the University of California. Ramey s a id Saturday that among the considerations upper- most in the minds of the AEC commissioners is a site's proxim- ity to a university community as well as availability of water re- sources. The AEC officials declined com- ment on when a final decision could be expected on the acceler- ator's location. AEC Chairman Seaborg said last month the de- cision will be made by the end of 4 the year.

Three hospitals said injured had been admitted. The number could not be determined. The injured policemen and the two who were shot were reported in good condition. Police arrested jeering bystanders who refused to heed directions, and fired warning shots into the air. More than 150 helmeted policemen ordered businesses closed in the northwest side neighborhood, where violence erupted Sunday after a Puerto Rican youth was shot by a policeman.

Some 150 delegates are expected. DRAFT DEFERMENT HAS BEEN RESTORED to Samuel Friedman, Grad, one of the students who sat in at the Ann Arbor draft board last October and was subsequently reclassified 1-A. Friedman appealed his reclassification by his Washington, D.C. draft board to the D.C. Selective Service Appeal Board. The Appeal Board reversed the local board. NEW HAVEN, CONN. (P)-YALE PRESIDENT Kingman Brewster Jr. said Sunday current United States draft policy "has invited a cops and robbers view of national obligation." At the baccalaureate service the day before Yale's commence- ment, Brewster said current Selective Service resulations "en- courage a cynical avoidance of service, a corruption of the aims of education, and a tranishing of the national spirit." Earlier this year, Brewster amended the university's official policy with regard to local draft boards. Under the new system Yale will no longer send student grades directly to Selective Service, but will instead let students decide for themselves whether they wish to give relevant information to their boards. Class standing is currently used by Selective Service as a criterion for allocating deferments to college students. Brewster said pressures are eroding the sense of national obligation and loyalty, but that it is "false to suggest that the only way to serve humanity is to repudiate your country." DETROIT (P-THE FIELD of Democratic candidates for the Michigan U.S. Senate nomination was cut to two today with the withdrawal of James L. Elsman from the race. Elsman, a businessman who had sought to compete with former Gov. G. Mennen Williams and Detroit Mayor Jerome Cavanagh, said he had collected about 10,000 signatures on nominating petitions, about half the number required. Democrats needed 19,336 to run for statewide office and Re- publicans needed 11,303. Elsman, a 36-year-old Detroit attorney, said he plans to seek no other office this year, but added that he might file a legal challenge to the petition signature requirement. * * - - EUGENE, OREGON (P)-A JUDGE ordered a student jour- nalist yesterday to answer grand jury questions about an article on students using marijuana.' Circuit Judge Edward Leavy issued his order after a two-hour hearing during which the journalist, Miss Annette Buchanan, managing editor of the University of Oregon Daily Emerald, refused to reveal the names of the students she reported about in an article on campus addiction last month. Miss Buchanan, who was ordered to appear again tomorrow morning, said it would be a violation of journalistic ethics to reveal the names, and that it is beyond the scope of the grand jury to require her to do so.

COMMENCEMENT: Police, Students Clash at MSU Delay Seen In Action on New College Smith Says Plans May Not Be Given To Regents in June Architects, administrators and faculty -planners are continuing their work on residential college plans, but some doubt that they will be ready in time for the next Regents' meeting was ex- pressed yesterday. Vice-President for Academic Affairs Allan Smith said yester- day 'that there is doubt the final plans-including a possible addi- tion of $350,000-will be ready by June 23 when the Regents next meet. Last Tuesday the plant exten- sion committee discussed the plans. From there the plans are scheduled to go to the Regents. However, Smith said the plant extension committee, composed of the vice-presidents and Univer- sity President, has not given fin- al approval to the latest changes. These changes were submitted by the residential college faculty planning committee and the exec- utive committee of the literary college.' They call for the addition of $350,000 in costs over the amount removed in cuts taken after thle last Regents' meeting. These ad- ditions are mainly for excavating, but not finishing more basement space. The faculty requested the exca- vation of the basements because they feel that at some time in the future donor money will be avail- able to finish that space, and pro- vide for a bookstore concession and student government offices. Smith said the plant extension committee is awaiting final cost estimates on these latest changes from the architects. There will not be final approval from the committee until they have a chance to review these figures. The committee, therefore, will not meet again on the college un- til the architects have more in- formation, Smith said. The plant extension committee is also reported to be considering adding another floor of B unit housing. They are said to be awaiting reports on whether add- ed students would bring in more revenue than the expense of an- other floor. Anti-Viet Nam war demonstra- tors picketing the commencement appearance of Vice-President Hu- bert Humphrey at Michigan State University Sunday were involved in a pushing match with Secret Service officers and policemen.

Goldberg spoke at Brandeis University Sunday on the need for freedom of expression on college campuses and in gov- ernment on the subject of Viet Nam. Before lie spoke antiwar litera- ture was distributed on campus by Brandeis undergraduates and confiscated by Waltham police. The literature, however, was re- turned to the students within 20 minutes and they were permitted to distribute the leaflets before the start of the commencent ceremony.

This campaign must now be supplemented by a massive letter- writing campaign aimed at the AEC, promoters of the Michigan' site declare. "We have to let the AEC know that Michigan will be mad if it isn't selected," Rep. Weston E. Vivian (D-Ann Arbor) says. "This is a long-term capital in- vestment. Michigan is notoriously behind in getting its share of fed- eral government research facili- ties," he contended. Vivian says the five other sites,; especially in Sacramento, Calif., are "making a lot of noise" about the AEC project. Their public re- lations promotion through the mass media is extensive, he noted. Michigan's strategy for gaining the site has never included thel traditional political pressure tech- nique of influence. "We wouldn't be able to apply1 political pressure anyway," Vivian; n ntar nci ihiniasn ho R o - ice. But Gen. Lewis B. Hershey, di- rector of the Selective Service system, said a lottery was used during World War II and "it just didn't meet things." Appearing with Hershey on the ABC radio-television program "Is- sues and Answers," Kennedy call- ed for a general congressional study of the Selective Service system with particular emphasis on the feasibility of a lottery. He said "I feel that the present! system provides inequality, pro- vides a lack of certainty." He said that under his concep- tion of a lottery system when a person reaches age 18 or 19 he would register with his draft board and after passing mental and physical examinations would then receive a number. A drawing would be held and all the numbers picked. Those drawn first would be drafted first.

Hershey called a lottery "some- thing that if you have the same kind of people at a given time you can decide priority amongst them," but where there is great diversity there will be inequality, he said. Kennedy and Hershey clashed over the senator's suggestion that the pool of men eligible for the draft be handled on a national basis rather than state by state. "You are drafting married men in some states while you haven't reached the bottom of the pool in the others," Kennedy said. Differences between the type of men available in different states, Hershey said, "is one of the costs you pay for letting the people in Massachusetts run their business." been confiscated because word had not reached police soon enough of the school administration's change of mind to permit its distribution. "I find it appalling, particularly in view of Goldberg's remarks about the right of protest and First Amendment freedoms," Allen J.Zurkin, leader of a student peace group, said yesterday of the Brandeis administration. Goldberg, head of the United States delegation to the United Nations, spoke first at a senior breakfast and said "demonstra- tions are all right as long as they do not disrupt the presentation of an idea." David Finkle said he and other students were putting up posters on trees and buildings on campus when they were stopped by the police. Four of the students said they were threatened with arrest and quoted the police as calling the confiscated literature "incitement to riot." Some 400 seniors and graduate students were about to enter an amphitheater to receive their de- grees and hear Goldberg speak again, when they learned what had happened to the literature. The seniors fell out of line en masse and refused to enter the amphitheater until the school ad- ministration permitted the litera- ture, protesting Goldberg's ap- pearance, to be passed out to the commencement audience. An administration spokesman said the literature was confiscated through a misunderstanding. He said the school and the seniors involved had agreed to allow the students to hand out literature at the entrance to the campus, not on it. "Then the students inferred from Ambassador Goldberg's re- marks at the breakfast, that it would be all right to hand out literature at the amphitheater en- trance. But in the meantime the campus police had been told to allow no distributing on campus," he said. Zurkin denied that the students had made any such agreement. Wirtz Says Many Jobs. Await College Graduates "The more you speak out and the more you act, the more you are going to discover that you are lending courage to a surprising number of people whose feelings will come to the surface in re- sponse to yours," Humphrey said. The Vice-President was booed by the demonstrators at the end of his address. Earlier the pickets had shouted "Heil Humphrey!" After Humphrey received his honorary degree, there was a burst of applause as the pickets marched out of the stadium. It prompted MSU President John Hannah to tell the crowd of 30,000 "I am sure the applause is for the Vice-President and not for the diversions." The audience then applauded Hannah. Humphrey said "those who op- pose the majority" are sure to collect bruises, but I have found that the best remedy for a bruise is to collect a few more.bYou for- get the pain of the first blow. "Those who dissent," he con- tinued, "are more a part of this land and more a source of its strength than are all of the multi- tude who join in silence, no matter how vast they may seem." He referred to the American serviceman as a "peacemaker . . a lifesaver." "I have seen these brave men perform acts of compassion that would be the marvel of any peace- ful society," Humphrey said. Humphrey told the audience, EAST LANSING (M)-The editor' of "The Michigan Democrat" has asked President Johnson to re- move Michigan State University President John Hannah from his post as chairman of the U.S. Civil Rights Commission.

A bright job picture awaits more than 700,000 college students who are graduating with bachelor's or advanced degrees this month, Sec- retary of Labor W. Willard Wirtz reported recently. He noted that reports from some colleges indicate many graduates are iot actively seeking work be- cause they face military service. A number of major graduate schools reported major increases in applications during the past year. Those students who are plan- ning to enter the job market this summer willfind better prospects for jobs at higher pay than ever before, the Labor Department re- port said. I Someistarting salaries of $850 a month or more are being offer- ed. Demand in Technical Fields The greatest demand is in sci- entific and technical fields such cially those with master's and PhD degrees. Starting salaries range up to $725 per month for engineers with bachelor's degrees, up to $850 for those with master's degrees and considerably higher for those with a PhD, Wirtz said. Starting pay being offered to mathematicians with bachelor's degrees average a bout $600 per month. Salaries for graduates in the physical sciences such as chemis- try, physics and astronomy are running from $575 to $700 a month to start. Graduates with degrees in business administration are be- ing offered an average beginning salary of about $550 a month for most trainee and sales jobs. Job prospects for new teachers also are excellent, with starting salaries ranging from $4000 to $6,- 000 a year for elementary and secondary school positions. Federal jobs with salaries of The ordinance was defeated by a 3-2 vote of the East Lansing City Council a week ago. While other concerned persons appeared, Harrison said, Hannah did not. "It seems to me Harrison just doesn't know what he is talking about," Hannah said today. "I have made my position clear on every conceivable platform-in East Lansing, Lansing and in many other places around the country," he added. "I was not asked to appear be- fore the council. If I had been asked I would have considered appearing as a private citizen. But it would have been most improper for me to appear as president of the university or as chairman of the Civil Rights Commission," he said. The ordinance was drafted and recommended by the East Lansing Human Relations Commission. It was supported by the East Lansing Democratic Club, The League of Women Voters, most of the city's clergy, "several eminent MSU social scientists, Gov. George Romney and Democratic guberna- torial candidate Zolton F'erency (both of whom live in East Lan- sing)," Harrison said, adding: "John Hannah would not public- ly take a position on this im- portant local problem. The man who has chaired U.S. Civil Rights Commission investigations in Mis- sissippi and other places would not give his support, which we desperately needed." Harrison said Hannah's reason for not taking a stand was that "he has a long-standing policy of noninterference in local affairs." But he added, Hannah attended a meeting of the Lansing City Ominrinan the sme eveningr thA By SUSAN SCHNEPP Ann Arbor city officials and the Mayor's Conference on Natural Beauty in the Ann Arbor area have recently voiced objections to the site chosen for the Residential College. Councilman Robert Weeks said the city would like this area of natural beauty to be preserved as 12 years and that the city has been using it free 'of charge. Weeks said that the University is trying to expand from central campus to North Campus in a "band" which takes in the river valley, thus making the city "poorer in green areas." He explained that the city plans to build a swimming pool and an ice skating rink in that area and
