Two Groups Ponder New College Units By SUSAN COLLINS The twoicommittees planning the residential college - the fac- ulty group and its advisory stu- dent committee - met' separately yesterday and continued discus- sion of building plans. The faculty planning commit- tee took up in particular the prob- lem of the new college's library plans, and whether there should. be offices for the faculty located in the library. It was decided to set up small, cubicle-like, student and faculty carrels in the library, instead of faculty offices. According to Associate Dean of the literary college and director of the residential college Burton D. Thuma, the residence college li- brary is to be "designed along the lines of the Undergraduate Li- brary, but smaller." At the same meeting, the fac- ulty planning committee discussed further a questionnaire to be sent to the University faculty to find those interested in teaching in the residential college-for how longI and under what conditions. The committee expects this week revised site plans which will allow for occupancy of more area than was originally planned. 1 Thuma stressed the fact that most of the plans made for the college are still subject to change. He also said the college's fac- ulty planning committee has been split up into various subcommit-t tees on agenda, academic build-t ings, the library building and the student center. A subcommittee on the science laboratories is soon to be formed. The second committee on ther residential college, the student ad-I visory committee, also met yes-f terday to discuss various aspectst of the new college.r Prof. Carl Cohen of the Dear- born Campus philosophy depart- ment and Prof. Alan T. Gaylord of the English department, bothz members of the faculty planning committee, were present with1 Thuma at the student discussiont session. Thuma reviewed the facts thatI the residential college will have nor departments, only divisions; that1 students on the main campus will not take residential college coursesc and that the college will haveF about 70 faculty members.I Gaylord then mentioned thet problem of classroom-faculty of- fice layout, saying that students might be most likely to seek out single offices that had classrooms scattered nearby. . One of the major topics at theI meeting was the size of classes.t After much discussion it was de-1 cided that the optimum size of a small class is no more than 25 students, that a lecture should have 100 or more students in itc to be effective.1 IQC Should ©, Assembly President Says -Associated Press LEONID BREZHNEV, right, Communist Party chief, greets Wladyslaw Gomulka, left, Polish Commuist boss, on the arrival of the Russian delegation in Warsaw for a conference of the leaders of the Communist bloc. Brezhnev Kosygin Meet in Warsaw; Berlin Spotlighted WARSAW (A') - The Soviet bloc's highest leaders assembled here yesterday for a summit meeting which Western diplomats say could bring dramatic new moves for disengagement in Europe. Expanded East-West contacts, reduced pressure against Berlin and a withdrawal of some Soviet troops from Communist East Ger- many, are the main possibilities voiced by these Western sources.

The five affirmative votes for the fifteen story limitation were cast by Democratic councilmen, and the six negative votes were cast by Republicans. Council chambers were filled for the controversial debate. A total of thirteen people spoke at the hearing, ten against the height limitation ordinance and three for it.

The Lawyers' Club board urged "all students to cooperate with reasonable SGC action" and sug- gested that SGC explore the feas- ibility of several other ideas. Four Points These were 1) "the temporary expansion of the Cinema Guild program," 2) "the possibility of the Michigan Union and Women's League sponsoring high-quality movies," 3) "the establishment of an ad hoc committee of Univer- sity student leaders to investigate the situation and to recommend, responsible action," and 4) "that this committee request the oppor- tunity to discuss the situation with administrative officers of the Uni- versity and with the executive of- ficers of Butterfield Theatres, Inc." Michael Mathews, '65L, presi- dent of the Lawyers' Club, said that the proposed Smithson mo- tion to SGC will be a "test of stu- dent interest to see whether the students are serious in opposing this price increase." He admitted that the one-day "boycott" prob- ably would not affect the theatres financially. Priorities Plan The Student Employes Union de- cided Sunday night to direct its wage increase efforts at specific insctitutions both on and off cam- pus. Selected by the membership institutions both on and off cam- as initial targets are Drake's Sandwich Shop and the Under- graduate Library. UMSEU President Barry Blue- stone, '66, said Sunday that the union's actions would . follow a three step procedure in each case -organizing as many employes as possible, negotiating with manage- ment and, if this fails, bringing pressure to bear through possible public demonstrations or work stoppages. Bluestone said that the member- ship also decided to support any action Student Government Coun- cil decides to take concerning the price increases recently set by the campus Butterfield theatres. This support, he continued, extends to either boycotts or sit-ins. In other action, UMSEU elect- ?d a new vice-president and select- ed four new executive committee members. Elected as vice-presi- dent is George Steinitz, '66, while Judith Klein, '66, Gail Smiley, '67, HowardCone, '67, and David Sha- piro, '68, will serve on the execu. tive board. and Premier Josef Cyrankiewicz. Today, they start a special meeting of the Warsaw Pact's political advisory committee, the first since, July 1963, shortly after the signing of the Moscow limitedI atomic test ban treaty. The commander of Warsaw Pact forces, Soviet Marshal A. A. Gretchko, also arrived, following meetings in East Berlin last week with East German Communist boss Walter Ulbright. Grethko's travels caused Western diplomats to think Moscow has made an im- portant decision about East Ger- many and wantdd Ulbright filled in ahead of time. They reasoned that reduction of the estimated 20 to 22 Soviet army divisions in East Germany wouldsbe an appropriate response to disarray in the Atlantic Alli- ance, Western military cuts and Western overtures to reduce ten- sion in Europe. Reducing Soviet strength in East Germany might be accom- panied by increasing the obliga- tions of other Warsaw Pact mem- bers-perhaps in some collective form. This could explain why the Soviet press has hinted that the Warsaw meetings are to discuss countermoves to the U.S. - pro- posed multilateral nuclear force. Committee To Issue Result of College Study By LEONARD PRATT Gov. George Romney's "Blue; Ribbon" Citizens' Committee on Higher Education will issue its report some time during the week of Feb. 15, Harold Smith, staff coordinator for the committee,, predicted yesterday. The release will follow a report of the last finance study sub- committee, scheduled for this Friday, and a meeting of the en- tire body to approve the completed report in about two weeks, Smith said. Finance was one of four sub- jects which the committee split up to consider. The other three were undergraduate' institutions a n d programs, post - graduate schools and educational planning and coordination. The reports of these other sub-committees have already been compiled and ap- proved, but will not be released until the finance report is also in. Smith's statements apparently put an end to speculation, both official and unofficial, about when the report will come out. When the group was first ap- pointed by Romney last spring, estimates were that the report would be completed by last July. Administrative delays set this date back to Nov. 12, when it was sup- posed to have been released at a meeting of the Michigan Associa- tion of Colleges and Universities. But the report was delayed again, this time due to illness of key members of the committee. Chairman Dan Karn of Jackson was hospitalized as was Alvin M.. Bentley, a subcommittee chair- man. The auto strike also forced the delay, as two other co-chairmen, Edward Cushman and Irving Bluestone, took part in the strike talks. The release date was then set for Dec. 15. But the finance sub- committee's report was late, forc- ing the postponement to Feb. 15. In addition to these delays, the committee was also asked to issue an "interim report" on Michigan's hirm.r binon hudaet needs. Mergye, Loomis sees Coed Dorms As Reason Says Unity Would Help Single Student Voice, Speed Communication By LESLEY FINKELMAN Assembly House Council and Inter-Quadrangle Council should merge their functions, AHC Presi- dent Maxine Loomis proposed yes- terday.- At last' night's AHC meeting, she gave several reasons for the proposal: First, when Bursley Hall, a planned North Campus co-ed dorm, is completed, 3600 students in the residence hall system will be living in co-ed conditions. With the majority of their constituents thus housed, Assembly and IQC could function more efficiently as a unified body, Miss Loomis said. Presently there are problems in the delegation of authority in Markley and South Quad since the women have retained membership in AHC while the men are subject to IQC. A merger would help communi- cation between a house and its immediately superior authority, Miss Loomis said. It would avoid duplication of effort and would achieve unity "of emphasis and purpose" by presenting a single student voice to the administra- tion from the residence hall sys# tem. Stronger Staff Second, recruitment has become a W definite block to IQC, Miss Loomis added. Staffing of one or- ganization-as opposed to two- allows for a more selective and; extensive recruitment system. Finally, a merged Assembly and IQC would provide a "center of contact" between Bursley Hall and main campus, thus providing a connecting link to all of North Campus. This link must be pro- vided if the educational theory of activities in general and Assembly and IQC specifically is to be up- held, Miss Loomis said. However, several problems arise when considering the merger of Assembly and IQC, Miss Loomis added. The structures of repre- sentation as they exist now are entirely different; merger would mean definite compromises on the part of both men and women. Apartments There is also the question of just what to do with those inde- pendent women living in apart- ments who presently find repre- sentation through Assembly. "'I see the apartment dwellers as forming their own representative organization," Miss Loomis said. The greatest difference arises from the differing male and fe- male personalities, she said. While the women's governments func- tion quite efficiently with a mini- mum of parliamentary red-tape, the majority of men's govern- ments detract from their effec- tiveness through procedural has- sels, she said. IQC President John Eadie was. not available last night to com- ment on Miss Loomis' proposal, but there reportedly is some senti- ment in IQC in favor of a merger.: Weighing the above points, Miss Loomis, recommends the following provisions: -The functions and purposes as well as the structures of both organizations should be reviewed by the merger committee; --Members of Joint Judiciary Council should be consulted as to the advisability of incorporating a judicial branch into the merged organizations; -Membership of the merged council should be held by the dormitory or quadrangle president with the number of votes appor- tioned by population concentra- tion. Representatives'"of the co-ed dorms should be the highest rank- ing, male and female officer of the dorm council; -Membership on the council should be restricted to all non- staff, non-faculty members of the University who are residing in the _-~~~ w 'BEST PLAY': Road Company To Present 'Luther' By JUDY STONEHILL "Luther," termed by Broadway reviewers as "The Best Play of 1964," will be presented by the Professional Theatre Program tomor- row night in Hill Auditorium at 8:30. The Broadway touring production will be the first in the Profes- sional Theatre Program's Play-of-the-Month Series. :Starring Alan Bergmann as Martin Luther and Alfred Sandor as Cajetan, the production will display the original costumes, scenery, and music that graced the New York production. The scenery shifts from the stark halls of a monastery where Luther is first ordained as a monk to a sixteenth century town marketplace, and from the Vat- ican in Rome to the historic Diet of Worms where the political and ecclesisatical princes of Germany came to try the rebellious church- man. Led Reformation Though "Luther" chronicles the epic of the leader of the Refor- mation, the man whose spiritual struggles led him to split Christen- dom apart, it is not regarded as a religious play. Rather, as Howard Tajhnman of the New York Times said. "Luther makes the theatre
