Hatcher Praises Vice-President;
Lewis Wants to Return to Teaching
By H. NEIL BERKSON
Editor
James A. Lewis has resigned from the vice-presidency
for student affairs. He will leave his post as soon as the Uni-
versity names a successor.
In an exchange of letters released early in August, the 59-
year-old Lewis requested University President Harlan Hatcher
to relieve him of his duties so that he could return to full-
time teaching in the education school. Accepting the resig-
nation with "great reluctance," President Hatcher wrote: "I
wish to express my own personal appreciation and the grati-
tude of the entire University community for your faithful
service, your devotion, to the welfare of our students and

vacant in 1961 when the then

Learn To Use the Deadly 'Biting Barb'
Do you believe in fighting fire with fire? Or in just plain fighting?
If so, The Daily is the place for. you. Believing that sticks and
stones may break our bones, we've organized our own militia, the
Just-a-Minutemen, to counter the heavy-handed tactics of our num-
erous enemies (they, in turn, began their offensive when they dis-
covered that names will sometimes hurt them).
c ";The experience will do you a world of good. Where else could you
f learn to hurl such ultimate weapons of defense as the Biting Barb,
the Insidious Innuendo, and the -Terrible Truth? And where else can
you find a nickel Coke machine-- enabling you to make your own
Molotov Cocktails at five cents a shot?
Join the editorial staff and you'll be able to wow your GI buddies
:;:-by telling them how you mowed down 10 administrators with one
editorial. And you'll be the first in your platoon to have had his
name in print as something other than a casualty.
If you join the business staff, you'll be schooled in the use of
guerrilla methods to round up advertisers. You'll learn the strategic
subtleties of deploying, in the plead of night, a regiment of paper-
boys. And you'll be taught the art of not answering complaints about
deliveries-a great way to build up the fibre to not answer a draft call.
Or, if you join the sports staff, you'll mingle with our great
t> i athletes and perhaps learn from them the talent of knowing the way
to get the grades; a talent whose use in somewhat analogous wartime
-situations is highly desirable.
Or, if you feel your future lies in making accidental overflights
f{ #over other countries, a few years on The Daily's photography staff will
prepare you to make the most of such unfortunate mistakes.

may not use racial criteria to se-
lect tenants or buyers if he owns
five or more housing units.
One of the amendments would
have extended the law's coverage
to include rooming houses (build-
ings whose rooms have no kitch-
ens), provided the owner of the
building or his family did not live
there, and rooming houses with
four or more rooms even if the
owner did occupy the premises.
At present, the ordinance covers
only blocs of five or more housing
units (dwelling units which have
kitchens), regardless of where the
owner lives. Rooming houses are
not mentioned in the law.
The other amendment would
have' prohibited discrimination in
the sale or rental of commercial
space.
T h e amendments' opponents
said the main reason for their
negative votes was a May ruling
by Municipal Court Judge Francis
O'Brien that the ordinance is un-
constitutional. They' said the 'city
should not act on the ordinance
while its validity is in question.
The ruling is currently being ap-
pealed by the city..
The view opposes that of City
Attorney Jacob Fahrner, who
contends that his appeal in effect
nullifies the court ruling until it
is heard in circuit court.'
The ordinance authorizes the
Human Relations Commission to
investigate complaints of discrim-
ination. If efforts at conciliation

Switchboard
There'll be no more waiting for
an operator on any calls to or
from the University. On Aug. 15,
the University's new Centrex sys-
tem went into operation.
The system involves more than
11,000 telephone numbers. A caller
can dial any of the phones with-
out going through the University
switchboard.
Residence halls are included in
Centrex. Local calls can be placed
directly at any time, and callers
likewise can reach room telephones
directly at. all hours.
All Seven Numbers
All Centrex numbers have seven
digits and will begin with 764. A
central University number, 764-
4110, is available for information
or general assistance.
All phones on Central Campus,
the Medical Center, North Campus
and the residence halls are part
of the system. Only Willow Run,
Martha Cook residence, the Mich-
igan Union, the Michigan League
and intercollegiate athletic offices
are excluded.
Two new Centrex directories are
available. The first includes fac-
ulty and staff numbers. The sec-
ond is the student directory, which
will become available after the
residence halls have been reopen-
ed in the fall.
Students living in residence
halls each received several post-
cards on which to notify parents
and friends of their phone num-

Planned for a Year
Planning and egnstruction work
has been going on for more than
a year. A team of 80 installers
worked around the clock to install
the intricate switching equipment
necessary for the Centrex system.
The Centrex installations should
alleviate the former problems of
conducting phone calls through
the University number, 663-1511.
The overloads - caused numerous
busy signals and delayed calls.
Another Board
Callers from phones outside the
Centrex system have to dial seven
numbers, starting with 764. When
the University expands to the
point where oyer 10,000 numbers
are needed, another exchange -
probably 765-will be added.
From one University phone to
another, callers only have to dial
five numbers; they can omit
