University students selected.
through interviews with members
of the Office of Religious Affairs
will be able to participate on a
panel with noted theologian Prof.
Will Herberg of Drew University
Ahen he visits here next month.
Herberg will lecture here Oct.
8 and 9 in a series sponsored by
the ORA which will bring five
other prominent speakers to the
University.
Prof. Herberg, a sociologist and
theologian, is currently a profes-
sor of culture and philosophy. He
has written "Judaism and Modern
Man: An Interpretation of the
Jewish Religion"; "Protestant-
CathG : E inAgge-
" can giou's So gy";The
Writings of Martin Buber"; "Four
Existentialist Theologians," and
"Community, State and 'Church'
Three Essays by Karl Barth."
"What we are interested in is*
what students can bring to the dis-
cussion. We will want to know
such things as why they want., to
be on the panel and a.little bit
about their background," Mrs. Eliz-
abeth Sumner, program assistant
direc;or of the ORA, commented.
"One reason we want t 'pick
panelists early is so that they will
have an opportunity to read some
of Prof. Herberg's books. So that
they can prepare informed ques-
tions and ideas to discuss with
Prof. Herberg. The discussion will
be held Oct. 8 at 7:30 p.m. in the
South Quad Lounge.
The student panelists will have
the opportunity to decide the topic
of the panel discussion.
After panelists have finished
their discussion, members of the
audience will raise questions.
Also on Herberg's schedule are
two lectures here: "Existentialism:
Religious and Atheistic," on Oct
8, and "Biblical Faith and Man-
Made Religions in Contemporary
America" on Oct. 9. Both will
be made in Rackham iAud. at 4:10
The OI A also hopes to; sponsor
a similar panel discussion around
Prof. Tillich's speech, "The Image
of Man and the Identity Crisis,"
when he is here Oct. 21. Prof. Til-
lich is a theologian at the Univer-
sity of Chicago.
Interviews will be held Wednes-
day, Sept. 16, from 9:30 a.m.-11:3C
a.m. and 2 p.m.-5 p.m.; Thursday
Sept. 17. from 9:30 a.m.-12 noon
Sand 1 p.m.-3 p.m. Those interest-

be serious trouble over the week-
end. Sunday was mentioned as a
likely day.
By coincidence, the .talk arose
as South Viet Ntam formally
charged that neighboring Cam-
bodia is fighting Vietnamese bor-
der forces in open support of the
Communist Viet Cong.
Accuse Cambodia
The foreign ministry accused
Cambodian troops of making four
attacks since July 19 to help the
guerrillas and announced four
Vietnamese were killed. Cambodia
was warned that Viet Nam holds
it responsible "for the grave con-
sequences that may follow."
Coupled with that were these
developments elsewhere:
-Though it has repeatedly
complained to the United Nations
Security Council about alleged
raids of the American-backed
Vietnamese forces on Cambodian
border communities, Prince Nor-
odom Sihanouk's government re-
jected the recommendation of a
council mission ,that an observer
group'be sent to guard against
such incursions.
-In Phnom Penh, the Cambo-
dian high command said the
United States and South Viet.
Nam are reinforcing their units
in a Mekong River area that was:
the scene of frontier incidents
Sept. 5. Heavy armament of near-
l y 1000 men posted there was re-
ported to include 105mm and
155mm guns. The area is one over
which U.S. Air Force F102 Delta
Daggers patrolled uneventfully
during a strike by Vietnamese
ground forces Thursday against
Viet Cong units three miles from
the border.t
I Support
-From Peking the, chairman of
Red China's parliament, Marshal
Chu Teh, cabled an expression ;of
support .to Phnom Penh, con-
demning "U.S. imperialismpand
the South Vietnamese ;puppet
troops for the monstrous crimes
they have recently committed
against the Cambodian people."
In, little more than nine months
coups have overthrown the gov-'
ernments of President Ngo Dinh
Diem and Maj. Gen. Duong Van
Minh and Khanh has had a close
ICall.'
The current rumors started as
U.S. Ambassador Maxwell D. Tay-
lor was on his way back from con-
sultations in Washington about
the political and military situa-
tion, shaken in August by wide-
spread antigovernment riots.
Most of the coup rumors had to-
do with- a supposed "Catholc
backlash" to apparent concessions
by Khanh to Buddhist and stu-
dent critics.

NETCONG, N.J.-The United States Youth Council, representing
33 national student and youth organizations, convened here last night
for a three day- discussion of programs and prospects -for the coming
year.
The first session was prhnarily devoted to the history andforgani-
zation of USYC, in a report on the Fifth World 'Assembly of Youth

In the first area, USYC will
study the results of three civil
rights projects carried out under
its sponsorship last year: Books
for Equal Education, the Human
Rights Conference, and the Fast

It will also consider resolutions
favoring elimination of the draft
and lowering of the voting age.
In conjunction with WAY,
USYC is further planning a North
American Workers' Conference
which may be held in Detroit next
fall.
The International Commission
will discuss the sending of four
observers tothe Moscow Inter-

USYC's history dates back to
1947, when it was created to rep-
resent the U.S. in the newly.
formed WAY. It is considered the
fficial representative of student
and youth groups in this country.
Among the groups are the
YWCA and YMCA, the Young
People's Socialist League, the Na-

Campus Americans for Demorcratic
Action, the United States National'

BATTLE CREEK (JP}-The W.
K. Kellogg Fundation has granted
Michigan State University $1.25
million to create the state's third
medical school.
The grant, announced py the
group yesterday, is to develop a
two-year College of Human Medi-
cine at MSU over the next five
years.
The foundation said $625,000 of
the grant will be used to put a
program of pre-clinical medical
education into effect at MSU by
planning a curriculum, acquiring
a faculty and designing a medical
building.
The remaining $625,000 is to be
used for construction of a medical
building. -
University officials have claimed
that a two-year medical program,
will be a prelude to a full four-
year medical school at MSU.
They have,argued that the Leg-
islature must meet its financial
commitments to the University
and Wayne State University. the
only existing medical units, before
promising new construction which
might eventually cost $75 million.
The fouZndation, in choosing
MSU for the grant, cited a report
by the Michigan Coordinatingt
Council for Public Higher Educa-'
tion. The report, Kellogg said,
"recommended that no later than
1971 a cooperative program in the
basic medical sciences should be
provided" at MSU.
The two-year school at. MSU
would be designed "with a view
toward . the transfer of students
to the third and fourth clin-
ical years at the University of
Michigan or Wayne State Univer-
sity or other medical schools," the
foundation said, in referring to
the report.r
MSU already has strong science
departments "to provide a setting
for the new College of Human
Medicine," the foundation said.
"The possibilities at Michigan
State University for promising ex-
perimentation in medical and bio-
logical education were of great in-
terest to th0 Foundation," it was
said.
The MSU medical school would
have the opportunity, the founda-
tion said, "to integrate human
medicine with programs earlier
established on the campus."
Programs of the MSU College of
Veterinary Medicine could be in-
tegrated with human research to
mutual benefit "since much of the
medical research in the nation is
on animals and many diseases
affect both animals and humans."

18-Story Apartment Bldg.
To BeRad n S etember
By LEONARD PRATT
Ann Arbor's tallest structure, an 18-story apartment building, is
now being constructed on South University Street, on the old site of
Miller's Ice Cream Parlor. _
. Towne Realty Inc., a Milwaukee construction firm, and the R. E.
Weaver Co. Inc., of Ann Arbor, are cooperating in the construction
of the $4 million building.
Scheduled to be ready for occupancy by next September, it will
house approximately 800 residents in one- and two-bedroom
efficiency apartments. t

The appointment of Hamilton
marks another phase in Radock's
work to revitalize the University
relations office. Two years ago
he instituted "Operation Mich-
igan," a program which sends
University .officials to m a k e
speeches around the state. It also
brings distinguished citizens and
alumni to'the campus here to get
a first-hand impression of the
University's facilities, teaching
and research.
Radock made a major staff and
structural re-organization 1 a s t
May when he promoted Cleland
B. Wyllie to the post of "assistant
director of University relations for
mass media."
Miss Alice Beeman then took.
over Wyllie's former duties as in-
formation services director.

Ann Arbor Mayor Cecil 0. Creal
announced yesterday that'he will
not seek reelection following his
current term of office, which ends.

Creal is now in his third two-
year term as mayor. He has pre-
viously served as City Council.
head for eight'years and as an
alderman for six years.
Creal first announced his in-
tention to retire several weeks
ago at a working session of the
City Council. At the. time, he said
that he was doing it now so that
his votes on council could not
have any political inferences.
Programs c o m p I.e t e d under
Creal's administration include the.
new city hall, a research park, a
new senior citizen's home, a new
fire station, several long-range
city development plans, and tkg
nation's first self-supporting park-
ing system.

building are reserved for apart-

of the R. E. Weaver Co., said that
space is being reserved for a res-
taurant as well as for Miller's new
ice cream parlor.
Parking problems associated

SAIGON STUDENT GIVES VIEWS:
Viet Nam Needs Domestic Peace Corps

Turkish Ambassador 0 r h a n
Eralp proposed that the Council;
send a, fact-finding mission to
Cyprus, and Greek Ambassador
Dimitri Bltsios agreed-provided ,
the mission be permitted to in-'
spect what he described as war-
like 'preparations taking place on
Turkish territory.
In Nicosia the Greek Cypriot
government warned Turkey that;
convoying of supplies to Turkisha
Cypriots blockaded at Kokkina,
would be opposed as a 'kind of
invasion." Defense Minister Poly-;
carpos Georgadjus gave the reply
to Turkish Premier Ismet Inonu's
statement in Ankara that Turkish
naval units intended to deliver
food on Tuesday to the Turkish
Cypriots.-
The council is expected to meet
next week to act on extending the.
life of the 6,160-man U.N..peace-,
keeping force, whose expenses are'
met by voluntary financial con-
tributions.
Thant laid down stipulations he
said must be met , f the council
takes such action.
He declared he considered it
unrealistic for .the council to ex
pect that the force can be main-
tained for another three-months
period on the "flimsy and uncer-
tain financial basis" of the past
six months.
He said.that if the council de-
cides on. extension beyond S$ept.
26, when the second three-months
term expires, 'I must insist that
at least pledges . for the total
amount necessary to sustain the
force for its third three-months
period ,must be in hand by that
date."
Thant estimated the cos at
$7 million.-
He said if the pledges for that
amount are not received "I will
have no choice but to consider
any- expenses .exceeding the total
of the voluntary contributions re-
ceived as legitimate charge againt
U.N. revenues from whatever
source derived. The bills will have
to be paid."
He noted that pledges thus far
were insufficient tomeet a $2
million deficit for the' costs of
maintaining the force for the
second three-months period.

Second of two articles'
By KENNETH WINTER
Managing Editor
What Viet Nam needs is a domestic Peace Corps.
Such a project would be staffed and run entirely by Vietnamese
youth. They would "go into the Vietnamese villages, living and
working with the people and trying to explain what democracy is,
what the free world is and what Communism is," Dao Duy, president
of the Vietnamese Catholic. Students' Federation, explained Thurs-
day.
Dao Duy, who left Ann Arbor yesterday to continue his state.
department-financed tour of the United States, feels that this may
.be the key to defeating the Communists and bringing peace to South
Viet Nam.
For the immediate problem, in Dao Duy's opinion, is that few,
rural Vietnamese are interested in resisting the Communist Viet
Cong insurgents-and many actually side with the rebels. Without.
the populace behind them, Western efforts to drive out the Viet
Cong are failing.
Broader Problems
But behind this problem, Dao Duy argues, is a broader one:
the political ignorance of the South Vietnamese. It permits the
Communists-under whose regime, Dao Duy is convinced, hopes of a'
better life for his people would be shattered-to win the allegiance
of the South Vietnamese.
