the Du Bois Club was planning to
start their own group on campus.

Regent Paul G. Goebel of Grand;
Rapids, national alumni chairman
of the University's $55 million
fund-raising drive, said the cam-
paign is currently getting orga-
nized on the local level in areas
across the country where there
are heavy concentrations of alum-

"The caliber of men we've been
able to attract to take responsi-

Students for a Democratic So-
ciety is sponsoring a Student
March on Washington to call for
the end of American intervention
in the war in Viet Nam.
The march, set for Saturday,
April 17, will concide with stu-
dent Easter vacations.

Reforms
"America needs a radical change
and our group is interested in
mass struggle. We believe a socie-
ty should be created in which the
workers have greater power and
control over factories," Chester
said,.

'U' Gets Grants
For Researci
The University has received'
nearly $400,000 in research grants
from the United States Public
Health Service, Rep. Weston Viv-
ian (D-Ann Arbor) announced
Tuesday.
The unrestricted research grants
include $38,792 to the School of
Dentistry, $117,492 to the School
of Public Health and $243,689 to
the Medical School.
The funds were given directly to
the schools, with the approval of
projects and their administration
being left to the schools them-
selves, thus eliminating remote
control from Washington as is
the case in the usual federal re-
search grants.

Party campaign for Clifton De-
Berry for president in the Novem-
ber elections. The YSA describes
itself in "fraternal solidarity" with
the Socialist Workers' Party, but
Salita said there was no direct
link between the two groups.
Salita said that the YSA dif-
fered from the ISC in its support
of the Negro Black Nationalist
movement, its active participation
in political campaigns and its
commitment to demonstrations in
support of Fidel Castro's Cuban
revolution and against the recent
U.S.-Belgian rescue mission in
the Congo.
More Radical .
On the other hand, Chester
claimed that the ISC will be
"more radical" than the YSA. He
I listed its basic concerns on cam-
pus reform in the areas of increas-
ed civil liberties and higher stu-
dent wages, and participation in
civil rights movements with em-
phasis on alleged police brutality
and slum conditions in the na-
tion's large cities.
Salita countered Chester's im-
plication that the YSA is less
"radical" than the ISC by listing
its recent actions: participation in
the Berkeley demonstrations, the
