(P)-The federal grand jury investigating the mur- der of three civil rights workers near Philadelphia, Miss., returned two indictments yesterday. The indictments insure there will be a trial in the near future. PlanTo'0 ct Against Ber in Insur'gents WASHINGTON (AP - A group of House Democrats served notice yesterday it will try to strip par- ty privileges from any Democrat- ic members who oppose President Lyndon B. Johnson's election. Ten members, acting through Rep. John A. Blatnik (D-Minn), said they will contest the seat- ing as a Democrat next January of anyone who "supported, cam- paigned for or* otherwise advo- cated" the election of any presi- dential candidate except Johnson. The action would appear to be aimed principally at Mississippi and Alabama members-all Dem- ocrats. In Mississippi, top state Democratic leaders are openly supporting Repblican Sen. Bar- ry Goldwater (R-Ariz), while in Alabama a slate of unpledged elec- tors represents the only alterna-. tive to the slate pledged to the Republican nominee. Blatnik's group intends to check press. clippings and monitor ra- dio speeches in the districts of' suspected defectors to gather evi- dence to lay before the Demo cratic caucus next January when it votes on committee assignments. Blatnik, said in a House speech that Democrats have every right, as individuals, to support and work for any presidential candi- date they favor. "We do not feel, however," he added, "that such members should be welcomed back into the Demo- cratic fold and be entitled to com- mittee assignments and other priv- ileges on an equal basis with those members who supported our na- tional candidates "and platform." The group is an informal or- ganization of liberal Democrats and has 125 dues-paying mem- bers.

Stockwell Women Adoptg Voluntary Plan Sign-out} By ADALINE ADAMS Stockwell Hall resolved its recent controversy over sign-outs last night by voting 271-95 to adopt a voluntary system. The choice between voluntary or mandatory sign-outs was givenf to the individual houses late last spring. At that time, the houseso were given a deadline by which to reach their decisions. The Stockwell House Council soon after that voted to retain the mandatory system. Within several days, a petition, in accordance with the initiative clause of Stockwell's constitution, was presented }'=n to the council. It asked that the matter be put to a house, vote k and favored the voluntary system.. me tx's. u Stockwell received an extension iss1on utiai of the deadline in order to hold - the house election.

Estification need for space is a justification for lities, Thuma also stressed that the tentative timing for construction creates further difficulties. Planners for the college face several alternatives: 1) If the residence units alone open in 1966, the facilities would have to be shared and the class situation would be difficult. Thuma said the committee is dissatisfied with this prospect "be- cause it would provide a mixture of all sorts of students, which could militate somewhat against the operation of the college." If students did not travel to the Central Campus for classes, they would have to take them in un- used living units on the residence college campus. 2) If, however, the construction' of the residential units can be delayed until 1967, the college might open with itz full array of clustered buildings. However, a substantial portion of non-resi- dential college students would still reside and perhaps attend classes there. They would be phased out as the residential student body swell- ed to four class levels. 3) The college could be con- structed in piece-meal fashion, so that the buildings would grow with the expanding population. Al- though the academic and resi- dence units will form a cluster, their small size permits this flex- ibility, Thuma said. But if this would bar outsiders, it poses new problems. "It is very difficult educating students amidst the distradtions of new construc- tion," he said. ' Stil Tentative Both Thuma and a spokesman from the business office empha- sized that building plans are high- ly tentative. The spokesman said the completion of' the residence units by a 1966 fall opening, for instance, would be difficult. There have been reports that' the administrative officers are pressuring the faculty group to, finish planning the housing to in- sure completion by this date. The business spokesman denied the speculation. "If it's possible to finish by 1966 then let's do it. It is not an impediment to the col- lege if the group develops a pro- gramland then we build that pro- gram. But we will take time to to Uni construct the residence units t suit the college's purpose." Strong Upperclassmen The concern of the planner over sharing facilities is an ex tension of their reported interes in forming a strong upperclas population in the college. The possibile mishandling o freshmen is viewed as a stron deterrent to their staying in th college without being dissatisfie or dropping-out from the college Students will be admitted an continue voluntarily.
