But reports on their success conflicted. One report from Oruro, 143 miles south of this capital, said that the army, police and President Victor Paz Estenssoro's militia held a firm grip on the city, but that the rest of the tin mining area was Larson noted. But the actives and the new group just couldn't get along together. After consultation with alumni, the national then piomoted the actives to alumni status, and re- quested that they move out by November 1. The national sup- plied a list of apartments avail- able in Ann Arbor but said that if extensions were needed, they could be arranged. Approve Action Most of the group promoted to alumni status feel this was essen- tially the best move that could have been made, Larson said. "We feel that Acacia now has the chance to build the fraternity into an integral part of the cam- pus community through the en- thusiasm exhibited by the new group," he said. The new group will soon be pledged, and probably will not become actives until next spring. The house willbe vacant, but the new members will be able to hold some functions there, such as chapter meetings. Group Declines New Government Cont rols Sudan' Premier Revokes Martial Law, But Military Still Retains Power CAIRO (P)-A new civilian government-largely under military control-took over in Sudan yesterday with a promise of liberty, freedom of speech, press and public assembly. The declaration was made in a broadcast by the new Premier, Elkhatem Khalifa, 40, a former Deputy Undersecretary in the Educa- tion Ministry, who heads a 15-man cabinet. He is said to have once favored union with Egypt. Three of his cabinet ministers are believed to be Communists. Khalifa announced the abolition of martial law, imposed by a military government when racial violence and antigovernment demon- strations swept this big country0- south of Egypt. Heads State President Ibrahim Abboud, for- iner head of the military regime, remains as chief of state, with his power only slightly diminished.

Three of the residence halls are under capacity-with a total of 39 vacancies. Six are over capa- city-with 116 of their residents living as extra men in double rooms which have been converted into triples. Earlier in the semester, the resi- dence halls had been jammed with about 450 over their normal capa- city. Change Dorms Officials have indicated that any students living in the dormi- tories over normal capacity who wish to move into the dormitories with vacancies can apply at the housing office for permission to move. Students eligible-i.e., of the correct sex and class for the dormitories for which they apply -will be given permission. The following six dormitories are over capacity: West Quad- rangle, 10 over; East Quadrangle, 6; South Quadrangle, 77; Mosher- Jordan Hall, 1; Stockwell, 16; Alice Lloyd, 4. The total over capacity : 116. These three dormitories are un- der capacity: Oxford, 9 under; Fletcher Hall, 3 under; Mary Markley, 27 under. The total va- cancies: 39. Helen Newberry, Betsy Barbour, Martha Cook, Couzens Hall, Hen- derson House. and the Lawyers Club are at about normal capa- city. Letup Housing officials have pointed to several factors as contributing to the letup of crowding in the dormitories, though they have available no breakdown of figures for them. -Menmabove the freshman level have been able to break their resi- dence hall contracts-paying a $50 fee-and move into apart- ments.'In addition, the University has allowed some junior women to move into apartments, though they too have been required to pay the $50 fee. -&udents did not show up for the fall semester.

Meanwhile, Rep. William Miller, campaigning in the Southwest. in- tensified his attack on President' Johnson. He described Johnson as "a panic stricken office seeker willing to stoop to new lows to dishonor the office he holds by a shabby attempt to besmirch the record of a very great President." Miller issued a statement in which he discussed the President in connection with Walter Jenk- ins, the presidential aide who re- signed after disclosure he had been arrested twice on morals charges. "President Johnson," Miller said, "has indulged in the lowest type of character assassination in his wholly unfounded claim the sorry episode of his own assistant, Walter Jenkins, had a parallel during the presidency of Dwight Eisenhower." He termed Johnson "an interim President" with a record that in- cluded "dedication to ADA-radi- cal-Socialists programs." Turning to Johnson's running mate, Miller declared: "Hubert Humphrey has an ap- palling affinity for radical polit- ical causes.' His public record charts the course for socialism in America." g e flAt..L±, raul broadcasts said.

"a liberal education for those un- dergraduates who are not interest- ed in a departmental program." The chairman of the committee, Carl Gross, a professor of educa- tion, will submit the committee's report on the project by January 1. Ii Today is the deadline for all fraternities and sororities on cam- pus to resubmit their complete membership statements in accord- ance with the Student Govern- ment Council Membership Com- mittee's request. As of last night approximately . 20 houses had not as yet com- plied, accordinag to William Burns, '65, the committee's chairman. "I don't expect many houses to hand me their statements tomor- row," Burns said. However, he in- dicated that if the late affiliates got their statements into t-he mail yesterday or today, so that the committee receives them Monday morning, the houses involved will be judged as having met the dead-' line. Burns predicted that despite the committee's allowing the houses to mail in their tardy statements, he still expected_ "nine or ten" affiliates to miss the deadline. Tardy Statements Although the majority of those expected delinquent statements will probably be due to misunder- standings by the respective houses, there most likely will be "several" affiliates who will be tardy -be- cause of pressures from their na- tional chapters, Burns added. The names of those houses which fail to resubmit their state- ments on time will be made pub- lic Monday. Burns , said that the committee had not as yet decided what immediate action it would take against the tardy houses.- The ultimate penalty for refus- ing to submit a satisfactory mem- bership statement,to SGC is com- plete withdrawal of recognition from the guilty house. Old Regulations Last fall, under the old SGC regulations for student organiza- tions, all fraternities and sorori- ties were required to turn in mem- bership statements by a Jan. 15, 1964 deadline. Five sororities held out submit- ting their statements until the day of the deadline, an4 at the time were required to furnish the complete membership information now requested under thq new or- ganization rules., On May 11 the Membership Committee requested, all the re- maining houses on campus to fur- nish new statements by today's deadline. Under the new organi- zation rules the houses must sub- mit the actual wording of their membership clauses. Formerly, the definition of "membership state- ment" was very vague. Last fall some houses turned in statements which only said: "We do not discriminate."

"I'm not sure whether I should be congratulated or offered con- dolences," said Huong, "but this is a critical period in Vietnamese history, and I have accepted this sacrifice for my nation as a mat- ter of conscience."

King noted that MSU is cur- rently deciding on' the best methods to face higher student enrollments. He said that the administration can either increase the size of the existing colleges or "introduce new patterns of educa- tional development." It is the function of the com- mittee charged with examing the possibilities of the residential col- lege to see whether some of these new patterns are "appropriate" for MSU, he said.
