LXXV, No.84 ANN ARBOR, MICHIGAN, THURSDAY, DECEMBER 10, 1964 SEVEN CENTS EIGHT PAGES Overwork Leads LeSaboTo Resign Associate Dean Describes Faculty's Attitude, Desire To Teach as Factors By ROGER RAPOPORT Asserting that administrative and teaching duties together are too much of a personal burden, Associate Dean Dick A. Leabo of the business administration school has submitted his resignation effective at the end of the winter term, 1965. He will assume increased class- room duties in statistics as a full professor. Leabo also cited faculty attitudes toward administrators, and his desire to do more teaching as factors in his decision. In his resignation letter to Dean Floyd A. Bond of the business administration school, he charged that "most faculty members (and the central administration of the 'U' Students May Get Exam Study Period in Fall By ROBERT HIPPLER If current soundings of faculty sentiment prove correct and fac- ulty meetings over the next month approve, students will have a three-day study period before finals starting next fall: Deans and faculties recently be- gan discussion on the proposal at the request of Vice-President for Academic Affairs Roger W. Heyns. Heyns' action was in response to a request by Student Government Council that his office consider establishing a study period. Heyns commented last night that if faculties approve the idea, the three-day period will go into effect in the calendar year 1964- 65. It would replace the current one-day gap between the end of classes and the beginning of finals. Discussion Begins Discussion of the study period has just started among the facul- ties. General sentiment seems to favor the plan, though there are a few qualifications and com- plaints. At its closed meeting Monday night, the literary college faculty was presented the proposal for approval, but chose to put it on the agenda for the January meet- ing to allow time for discussion before a vote is taken. A request from any faculty member was sufficient to place the item on the January agenda, and one member requested it. However, sentiment at the meet- ing was reportedly in favor of the proposal, and chances are good for its passage in January. Sentiment Favorable Dean Stephen S. Attwood of the engineering college said last night that though sentiment on the en- gineering college faculty was gen- erally in favor of a longer study period before examinations, not all favor a three-day period. Some faculty members, pointing out that the three-day period will always be joined to a weekend, have ask- ed whether the combined five-day period is necessary. Some in the college may seek a "compromise"-perhaps a two-day study period-but the faculty will probably go along with the con- sensus of the University's facul- ties on the matter, he said. Fur- ther discussion and a vote will come at the monthly faculty meeting in January. Dean Rhoda Russell of the nursing school said that "though we haven't discussed the matter in detail," there is some sympathy toward the proposal from the nursing faculty. Several members have been hesitant on the ground that the lengthened period might cut too much class time from what they see as a crowded sched- ule, but there has as yet been no extended discussion or vote on the proposal. Must Await Meeting Dean -Myron Wegman of the public health school, while noting that some faculty members have been favorable to the proposal, said no consensus can be reached until the school's faculty meeting Monday. The proposal will be on the agenda and discussed there. The faculty of the business ad- ministration has not yet had an opportunity to discuss the pro- posal but will take it up at its meeting tomorrow, according to Dean Floyd Bond. Deans Willard C. Olsen of the education school and Reginald Malcolmson of the architecture and design college said their fac- ulties will discuss the proposal at January meetings. Union, League Resolve Ilerger Differences Panhel Looks Favorably on Rush Plan By SHIRLEY ROSICK Sorority presidents last night had no serious objections to an unstructed plan for fajl rush. However, Panhellenic Associa- tion will not vote on the formal proposal for the revision of fall rush until the week of Jan. 28. Tentatively, the ,new plan for fall rush would replace the four sets of highly organized evening parties with unstructured mixers and a type of "open rush"-with more informal contact between rushees and sorority women. Similar Plan The plan for unstructured mix- ers would be similar to the plan defeated last month for spring rush. Rushees would be allowed to visit houses in whichever se- quence they chose and might stay at each house for any amount of time. According to the present plan, rushees are led around in groups by rush .counselors. Th~ey must visit all 21 houses in a certain sequence, staying at each house for 30 minutes. Under the plan for a type of "open rush," houses could invite rushees to the house at any time of the day and for any length of time during the formal rush period. At present, rushees may not be in houses except during formal rushing parties. Panhel also considered the re- actions of national and local alumni chapters to the Student Government Council membership committee's recent request for alumni recommendation forms. SGC Objectives Some Panhel members said that their nationals would like the SGC membership committee to state its ultimate objectives, instead of continually adding requests. Ear- lier this fall all fraternities and' sororities were asked to submit membership reports. This month, the membership committee also requested alumni recommendation forms. Several members asked that Panhel either approve or disap- prove of the membership commit- tee's requests. President Ann Wickins, '65, said that this would not be in keeping with the tra- ditional role of Panhel-as a con- federation rather than an organi- zation for determining policy for individual sororities. She said, however, that there is a need for Panhel to express the position of sororities on member- ship. While there isn't time this semester, it should be an area of concern next semester, she said. University) cannot, and do not, appreciate fully the dedicated sac- rifices and personal effort you make daily... "This lack of knowledge about the total problems of the school, in my judgment generates an at- titude which is. . extremely un- fortunate. Instead of appreciating the dedicated work of the school's administrative staff, faculty mem- bers far too frequently belittle (and in some cases obstruct) these. vital efforts. Personally, I have found this attitudehextremely cut- ting' and onie which I cannot accept nor begin to comprehend." He added in an interview last night that he found teaching more rewarding than administrative work. "I think a university is designed primarily for students and teach- ing. Students really appreciate a dedicated faculty member who prepares himself, and thisLis a real incentive: to do well," Leabo commented. In his letter of resignation Leabo recommended "that a re- placement willing to devote all of his efforts to the tasks of the associate dean on a 12-month basis" be hired. Bond commented that he had hoped to persuade Leabo to accept a full-time administrative ap- pointment, but the associate dean preferred to return to full-time teaching.

Deny Berkeley, Amnesty Plea' By The Associated Press BERKELEY - University oft California students held a, jubi- lant noon rally yesterday after the faculty senate adopted 824-115 a resolution recommending the stu- dents be given most of what theyt have been demanding through four massive demonstrations. t However, Gov. Edmund G.t Brown refused to grant amnesty to 814 arrested students despite ant appeal by student leaders. Meanwhile in Ann Arbor, 31 professors and administrators havex signed a telegram to University of California President Clark Kerr in which they support student and faculty action at Berkeley. The telegram is being sent by Voicee political party, the Ann Arbor2 chapter of Students for a Demo-r cratic Society. i Activities To Be jointly Supervised To Finance Group On Per Capita Basis By ELLIOT BARDEN One of the last remaining bridges in the path of the mer- ger of the student activities orga- nizations of the Michigan Union and Women's League was crossed last night. The Union Board of Directors and League Board of Governors after meeting in a rare joint ses- sion unanimously adopted a com- promise plan for the merger. . The merged student activities organizations, known as the Uni- versity Activities Center, will now be responsible to the governing boards of both the Union and League. Currently, the Union Board exercises a greater control of its student activities wing than does the League Board. Walter Rea, a member of the Union Board, in discussing the suggestion to make the UAC re- of the Union's said, "The Union does not want to give up its long established tradition of excellence (in the area of board supervi- sion of student activities) for something that is not as good." Nancy Freitag, '65, president of the League Executive Council, the student activities wing of the League, argued that the original "plan to place the UAC under the direction of the Union Board alone was inadequate because it was contrary to the concept of a true merger.I In effect, the original plan would have given one of the League's major fnuctions to the Union rather than have truly merged the two organizations, Miss Freitag said. The other major revision in pre- vious plans for the merger was the decision to have the Union and League support the UAC ac- cording to the ratio of men to women students. Former plans called for an equal division oe this cost. The merger still needs the ap-1 proval of the Union members. ItI is not yet known whether it willI also require the consent of the Regents. The Union Board passed an amendment to its constitution to allow the implementation of the merger. Union members consent is needed for its adoption. * * * * * * * * * USSR Cuts Defense Reduce 0 A~s Step 'To President, oviet Aide Hold Talks Leaders Consider Disarmament, Call Meeting 'Friendly' WASHINGTON ("P) - President Lyndon B. Johnson and Soviet Foreign Minister Andrei A. Gro- myko discussed disarmament and other East-West issues at a 1% - hour meeting last night which the Soviet leader termed "useful" and "friendly." The White House session was the first meeting between Johnson as President and Gromyko, who recently had a change of bosses in the Kremlin. United States sources said the Moscow foreign policy line ap- peared to be generally the same as it had been under former Pre- mier Nikita S. Khrushchev. They held the door open for further U.S.-Soviet agreements but said nothing specific was agreed on yesterday. Welcome Announcement- The White House said the Unit- ed States welcomes the Soviet an- nouncement of a $555 million cut in the Russian arms budget. U.S. authorities suggested privately, however, that the Soviet move was mainly a propaganda play in the wake of a previous U.S. state- rnent of intent to hold down Amer- ican military expenditures. The White House said that Sec- retary of State Dean Rusk had told some of the Russians at the United Nations what McNamara had said on the U.S. military budget and "I presume this is the basis of Mr. Kosygin's statement this morning." No Agreement Gromyko said, as did a White House spokesman, that there was not an "agreement" between the United States and Russia as such to cut back on arms outlays.

Rf ;.. "; 1964: Crowding, EDITOR'S NOTE: This is the first of two articles reviewing the year at the University. By LOUISE LIND Assistant Editorial Director More than anything else, 1964 has been a year of expansion for the University. In an attempt to accommodate the increasing number of stu- dents seeking a berth in higher education, the University has ex- panded its plant and its plans on a number of fronts: it increased its enrollment to a record high, approved a proposal to expand Flint College to a four-year institution, initiated the first, year of operation on the trimester system, endorsed plans for several new buildings and continued the groundwork for a new residential col- lege. Other major events of the year included state approval of a rnnn A. TTn;..n..rcif4 .u , f n l.a nh minn,.+nf- n nnnint nf., Trimester Expansion Highlight Year year represented a 1,715 student increase over last year. Administrators worked throughout the month of September to place 460 students residing in temporary dormitory quarters in newly-converted doubles and triples. A plan proposed by Inter-Fraternity Council President Law- rence Lossing, '65, to allow this fall's upperclass pledges to move into their fraternity and sorority houses without delay or financial penalty was approved by the Office of Student Affairs. However, the OSA declined to extend a similar privilege to those dormitory resi- dents wishing to leave University housing for apartments. By the end of the month, 832 dormitory residents were occupy- ing rooms to which the University had added an extra man. Fees for the newly converted doubles and triples were reduced $70. However, the housing squeeze was only one facet of the general enrollment crisis. Schools and colleges within the University also felt the weight of numbers. pense of quality education. According to official University estimates, next year's enroll- ment will expand by an additional 1800 students: 400 extra fresh- men, 200 freshmen at Flint (the first freshman class for the cur- rently junior-senior institution) and 1200 upperclassmen and graduates. This year's dormitory overcrowding will probably con- tinue in 1965, according to a prediction made by Residence Halls Business Manager Leonard Schaadt. Meanwhile, University administrators compiled tentative statis- tics to illustrate the "desired growth" of the University between now and 1975. A report released by Vice-President for Academic Af- faris Roger W. Heyns, working in conjunction with the Advisory Council on Academic Affairs, listed chief trends which would be established by 1975: -Non-Ann Arbor enrollment would increase more than Ann Arbor enrollment; . ..... .. ............. . 3 7;s.
