Lewis To Consider Plan To Release
Upperclassmen, Relieve Crowding
By ROBERT RIPPLER
t
Vice-President for Student Affairs James A. Lewis said last night
he will consider a proposal allowing this fall's upperclass pledges to
move into their fraternity houses without delay. The scheme would
be aimed at alleviating'the current residence halls crowding.
Lawrence Lossing, '65, president of Inter-fraternity Council,
offered the plan Saturday to Director of Residence Halls Eugene
/ Haun. Haun declined the plan at the time and had no comment on it
last night.
Lossing's proposal would let pledges above freshman out of their
residence hall contracts. They could then move into fraternity houses

Court Actions

The two families whose least

considering taking certain aspect
of their eviction to court.
The leases of Alan Jones an
Daniel Gray were due to expii
Aug. 31. Aug. 14 both familif
received letters from landlord (
Frank Hubble asking them to leave
the two said. They were told the
all the tenants received this lette:
Jones said the letter stated the
all the apartments were rented ou
for the following year, but hi
added that all the tenants had nc
received this letter.
Court Action
Jones and Gray's consideratio
of court action stems from variou
factors:
1) They moved out of the
apartments one week before the
lease expired. When Gray return
ed to his apartment to pick u]
some equipment he left there, h
found that the locks on the door
had been changed.
On the basis of not having ac
cess to the apartments before then
leases legally expired, Jones an
Gray are considering asking fo
refund of one week's rent.
Damage Deposits
2) As of yet, damage deposits
consisting of one month's rent
have not been returned, Jone
said. If they are not returned
Jones feels that there are ground
for court action, since neither h
nor Gray were ever given an op
portunity to clean the apartments.
Jones assumes he and Gray wer
asked to,. leave because of thei
friendship with the Congress o
Racial Equality. However, neither
Hubble nor anyone connected Wit]
the apartment building has state
this is the reason.

Hubble allegedly tore them down.
CORE Helps
Approximately 35 members of
CORE demonstrated Aug. 23,e
week before the leases were die t
expire, to help the two familie
move to their new lodgings. The
CORE members sang freedom
songs and picketed the building
while the families moved.
CORE's 'involvement with the
apartments stems back to the
passing of the fair housing ordi-
nance, Jan. 1, 1964.

worker, applied for an apartment

as soon as they pledged. Such
pledges usually have to honor
their year-long contracts and
thus cannot move into their
houses until the next fall.
The vacancies left by these
pledges would help relieve the
residence hall crowding, Lossing
commented last night.
'Partial Remedy'
Two other student leaders join-
ed Lossing last night in viewing
the plan as a good partial remedy
to crowding in the residence halls,
which have been jammed beyond
normal capacity by the arrival of
hundreds of extra sttidents this
fall.
Panhellenic Association Presi-
dent Ann Wickins, '65, said the
plan would not only help alleviate
the crowding, but would "help
pledges acquaint themselves" with
their fraternities. She noted that
since all University sororities are
now-filled to capacity with mem-
bers and transfers from other
schools, she was not able to pro-'
pose a similar plan for women.
"Had they been able to antici-
pate such an opportunity last
spring, many sororities could have
provided room for pledges under
such a proposal," she said.
'Voluntary Basis'
Maxine Loomis, '65, chairman
of Assembly Association, agreed
that the plan would help solvec
the current problems. She stress-t
ed, however, that "such a pro-i
posal should operate only on at
voluntary basis," with pledges
free to choose whether or not theyf
wish to move outside the"'quads.i
She noted that the Executive
Council of Assembly Association,
took tentative action last night to
establish an "ad hoc committee"t
to investigate the crowding situa-
tion. The plan will be presented
at the next meeting of Assemblyf
for approval.

University administrators yes
terday hailedthesCongressiona
pa ssage of a massive $7.1 billio
appropriation bill which will alla
educational costs for thousand
of students here.
The measure, providing fund
for the departments of Labor and
Health, Education and Welfare
was 'passed Sept. 3 and sent to
President Lyndon B. Johnson. The
bill provides nearly $500 million
in loans overall and gives special
recognition to potential doctors,
dentists and nurses for the first
time in federal loan programs.
The appropriation bill also ex-
tends the National Defense Educa-
tion Act loan program at a cost
of $280 million.
The HEW bill finances a spate
of building programs which will
spur construction of undergradu-
ate, graduate and medical facili-
ties.
Passage of an appropriation bill
is the second step in enacting fed-
eral programs. The first. step,
which=usually comes months be-
fore, authorizes the program with
a more general price tag.
Nearly $750,000
Any education appropriation bill
is considered importanthere. But
this one is valued more highly
than others because it finally
frees nearly $750,000 in loan funds
which have already been promised
for this year.
The Office of Education, which
distributes the loan funds, had
predicted these totals to officials
in the financial aid office and
the medical and dental schools.
The figures were. given when the
HEW bill was introduced last
March.
Johnson's signature is anticipat-
ed soon and the flow of funds
will begin shortly thereafter, in
time for Sept. 30 tuition payments.
Officials have had to tap emer-
gency fund resources to substitute
for this federal money temporar-
ily.
Associate Dean Robert Doerr of
the denal school termed the ap-
propriation measure "extremely
meaningful to dental students be-
cause their education is the most
expensive'on campus." The Uni-
versity is expected to receive $70,-
000 in dental loan funds as its
share of the $10 million contained
in the bill. Freshmen have top
priority.
$2000 Ceiling
Doerr said that an in-state den-
tal student pays about $3100 in
his freshman, sophomore and
senior years and over $3500 his
junior year for tuition, books, in-
struments and living expenses. The
loans have a $2000 ceiling imposed
by the government.
The junior year is most expen-
sive because of instrument costs;,.
which run as high as $700, Doerr
explained.
Prof. John Gosling of the medi-i
cal school, a member of the stu-
dent aids committee there, pre-i
dicted the bill will supply medical
students with more than $100,000
in loan funds. Most of the funds
are earmarked for freshmen who
have already submitted loan ap-
plicatiops.
Once freshman needs are met,
he remainder of funds will be
added to existing loan supplies for
upperclassmen.
Dean Rhoda Russell of the nurs-
ing school said "we are very happy
about this federal support of nurs-
ing education." The appropriation
bill includes funds for the Nurse
rraining Act recently signed by
ohnson. The amount of loan,
unds available "has not yet been
determined," Mrs. Russell said
Borrowing Nurses
She did commend one feature 1
of the bill which will "excuse"
borrowing nurses from repaying
50 per cent of their loan provided

f This is greatly increased over
r last year's budget, which had to-

d $9000, according to Miss Randon.
"The greatest area of expansion
e is in the area of education and cul-
d ture, which we think is one of
the areas of greatest service to
the campus," Miss Randon com-
mented. Sherry Pastor, '65, chair-

to delay court orders for reap-
portionment of state legislatures.
Under the rules, the petition
will come to a vote automatically
one hour after the Senate meets
tomorrow.
Plans for adjourning Congress,
which have been snagged in the
reapportionment battle since Aug.
13, rest on the outcome.
Fourteen other Republicans and
two Democrats, including East-
land and Sen. A. S. Monroney of
Oklahoma, joined Dirksen in the
petition for the vote. The total
of 17 was one more than required.
Dirksen conceded to reporters,
however, that he may not be able
to muster the two-thirds vote
necessary to impose the debate-
limiting cloture rule.
Senate Democratic Leader Mike
Mansfield of Montana, who has
aligned himself with Dirksen in
what is essentially an urban ver-
sus rural fight, repeated his belief
that it is "very doubtful" the
Senate will vote for cloture.
If the move fails, Dirksen asked,
"What happens 'to the foreign aid

SINGAPORE (J)-An Indone-

in Singapore has been smashed
and most of its ringleaders ar-
rested, Malaysia's deputy prime
minister reported yesterday.
Tun Abdul Razak, also the fed-

Singapore was still reeling from
six days of racial violence that
has left at least 14 dead and 108
injured.
Meanwhile, a dispatch from Ja-

is a victim of aggression when de-

Meanwhile, Britain flew urgent

:ABOR DAY KICK-OFF:
Johnson Callsfo National Unityj
By HAROLD WOLMAN
President Lyndon B. Johnson opened his presidential cam-
paign Monday before a Labor Day crowd in Detroit's Cadillac
Square with a speech emphasizing national unity.
The President's speech, as he had announced previously, was
not the highly partisan speech usually associated with a presiden-
tial campaign. However, while Johnson did not once mention the
Republican Party or its nominee, Sen.. Barry Goldwater, his
speech was replete with references to policies advocated by the
Republican standard-bearer.
'Brotherhood Among Men'
Johnson told the crowd that he had come there "to call for
national unity. I plead for brotherhood among men and under-
standing among nations."
He called for cooperation between all elements of American
society: "Farmers and city dwellers, bankers and laborers know
that, by strengthening each group, we strengthen the nation-
no such thing as a conventional nuclear weapon. For 19 peril-
filled years, no nation has loosed the atom against another. To
do so now is a political decision of the highest order . . . No
President of the United States can divest himself of the respon-
sibility for such a decision."
Johnson also depicted the havoc and destruction which a
nuclear war would create. "In the first nuclear exchange, 100
million Americans and more than 100 million Russians would be
dead. And when it was over, our great cities would be in ashes,
and our' fields would be barren, and our industry would be
destroyed, and our American dream would have vanished."
The President then declared, "As long as I am President, I
will bend every effort to make sure that that day never comes.
I am not the first President to speak here in Cadillac Square,
and I do not intend to be the last."
Heckle Romney.
The .highly partisan crowd received Johnson's speech politely
but without great enthusiasm. Earlier, members of the United
Auto Workers union had heckled Gov. George Romney-sharing
