Residence College Survey

Literary college department
chairmen are cautiously opti-
mistic about the residential col-
lege proposal, a Daily survey
indicates.
Of 18 chairmen contacted
this week, 10 said they per-
sonally favor the idea, four ex-
pressed substantial reservations
and four declined to comment
altogether. No chairman an-
nounced himself as flatly op-
posed to the idea.
The potential for educational
experimentation was the argu-
ment most often mentioned in
favor of the new college. Prof.
Guy E. Swanson, chairman of
the sociology department, said
the integration of living and
academic units could resurrect
the academically-oriented bull
session, which is more common
in European schools and have
proved fruitful there.
Unusual Opportunity
Prof. Rudolph H. Gjelsness,
chairman of the library science
department, added that it
would be "an unusual oppor-
tunity for the library to give
a more personal touch to its
services and to be in closer con-
tact with instructional work."
The residence college pro-
posal, drafted by a faculty com-
mittee and released last April,
suggested several types of ex-
perimentation. Basic was the
concept of having "all the
teaching facilities and most of
the studying, facilities ..in
residence halls."
In addition, a more integrat-
ed curriculum and greater
student-faculty contact were
envisioned. At the same time,
the college should be near
enough to campus so that Uni-
versity facilities would be read-
ily available to its members,
the report state.
Enrollment Pressures
The department chairmen al-
so frequently applauded the
residential college concept as a
possible answer to enrollment

pressures. Prof. Alfred S. Suss-
man of the botany department
commented, "At least in its
early stages the residential col-
lege may not be a solution to
increasing size, but in the long
run it would serve as a model
which we could apply to ex-
panding the University in a
way which would preserve qual-
ity."
But none of the chairmen
denied that there will be prob-
lems connected with establish-
ing the new college.
First, several chairmen, while
favoring the college, don't see
it as an answer to the enroll-
ment problem. Prof. Swanson
noted that it could deal with
"some of the consequences of
growth, but in general growth
implies a need for more staff."
Present Growth
Professors George G. Cam-
eron of the Near Eastern stu-
dies department and Gerald F.
Else of the classical studies de-
partment both said the college
would take three to four years
to set up and consequently
would not solve the present
growth problem.
Prof. Arthur Bromage, chair-
man of the political science de-
partment, added that the tri-
mester and expansion of the
regular literary college must be
used to accommodate more stu-
dents.
But the most frequently-
voiced objection was financial.
Although the original report
asserted that the new college
"'would not differ in either
student-faculty ratio or run-
ning-cost expenditure per stu-
dent for the college as a whole"
from the present literary col-
lege, 8 of the 14 chairman
commenting mentioned money
as an obstacle.
Same Problems

problems in the new college
would be the same as elsewhere
in the University, but because
of other expenses involved in
the residential college its stu-
dents would get "some pretty
expensive teaching."
Prof. James N. Spuhler,
chairman of the anthropology
department, said the increased
student-faculty contact neces-
sarily will boost expenses, add-
ing that he feels the college
would be worth the extra cost.
He also said the failure of
the Legislature to appropriate
enough funds could block the
opening of the new college.
Might Divert Funds
And Prof. John Mersereau,
Jr., chairman of the Slavic
languages department, said a
residential college might divert
funds from the rest of the
literary college's operations.
Staffing problems also were
mentioned frequently. Prof.
Anderson said he doubts anyone
in the chemistry department
actively engaged in research
would give it up to teach in
the residential college.
Whether or not teaching in
the new college would be pref-
erable to working in the regular
literary college is "a mater of
taste," Prof. Sussman noted. He
said there are some members
of the botany department 'who
would be willing to teach in the
residence college for a while.
Willing To Work ,
Most other chairmen indicat-
ed that at least a few of their
departments' members prob-
ably would be willing to work
there, though several said they
would need additional appoint-
ments to man the new college.
Prof. William B. Willoox of
the history department warned
against forming an image of
faculty in the residential col-
lege as the University's "sec-
ond-class citizens.'

Algerian,
Moroccan
War Halts'
ALGIERS (M-)-Shooting stopped
late yesterday in all sectors along
the contested Algerian-Moroccan
frontier, Algerian field headquar-
ters announced today.
The end of hostilities was an-
nounced 24 hours after the offi-
cial cease-fire went into effect at
midnight Friday. The report said
an artillery duel in the Figuig-
Beni Ounif sector ended by early
evening and no engagements had
been fought since.
The report came from Algerian
headquarters at Colomb-Bechar
after both sides in the undeclared
frontier war traded artillery and
machinegun fire in violation of
the Bamako cease-fire agreement.
Accusations
Each side accused the other of
violating the agreement within
minutes after it came into effect.
Morocco had dispatched troops
to its eastern frontier and mili-
tary duels shattered a brief calm
yesterday in the sector 'bordered
by the Moroccan town of Figuig
on the north end and the Algerian
town of Beni Ounif on the south
end.
Algerian authorities said Moroc-
can shells ripped into Beni Ounif
23 minutes after midnight yester-
day and kept coming for 20 min-
utes. The Algerians said they or-
dered their artillery to return fire
later.
Figuig Firing
Morocco charged the Algerians
fired on Figuig yesterday after the
cease-fire deadline.
Algerian Foreign Minister Ab-
delaziz Bouteflika told newsmen
late yesterday that despite con-
tinued fighting he still had "every
hope for peace" in the border con-
flict with Morocco.
Boutilika told a news conference
he believed the Moroccan govern-
ment was trying "just as hard as
the Algerian government to put an
end to the incidents that delayed
the end of the fighting."
Algerian troops took positions
around Figuig last week to coun-
terbalance the Moroccan advan-
tage in the Sahara, he said.
The Algerians are known to
have Soviet-made tanks and other
Communist-bloc equipment, but
there has been no previous report
Soviet soldiers were at the scene
of the fighting.

Rules Survey
The Women's Conference Com-
mittee will begin a survey tomor-
row to determine opinions on
women's regulations.
Questionnaires will be circulat-
ed to girls living in residence halls
and sorority houses through house
presidents. All girls living in
apartments and co-operatives are
asked to pick up a form at the
League and fill it out there or re-
turn it later to the League.
All forms should be returned by
Friday, Nov. 8. The study is purely
a personal opinion poll and is by
no means a vote, Gretchen Groth,
'64, president of the Michigan
League, said.

Kennedy Advisers
Question More Aid
WASHINGTON (AP)-The United
States is preparing to recognize
the new South Viet Nam regime
early next week-probably tomor-
row-following the formation of
a mixed military-civilian govern-
ment.
United States officials disclosed
this yesterday after President*
John F. Kennedy cancelled plans
to attend a football game in Chi-
cago to confer with top military
and State Department advisers at
the White House.
The major concern at the con-
ference was the steps to be taken
in the United States-backed war
against the Commuist guerrillas.
Attend Conference
Among those in attendance were
Secretary of State Dean Rusk,
Secretary of Defense Robert S.
McNamara and Gen. Maxwell D.
Taylor, chairman of the Joint
Chiefs of Staff.
Beside the question of recogni-
tion, informants said the top offi-
cials discussed the composition of
the new Saigon government and
the resumption of United States
economic aid programs, which
have been curtailed in the last
two months.
The military group headed by
Gen. Duong Van Minh which took
power is expected to continue to
hold sensitive cabinet posts such
as the ministry of defense, inter-
ior, police administration and all
activities connected with the war
effort.
Give Assurance
The United States apparently
finds in the public announcements
of the military committee assur-
ance that South Viet Nam will
return to a constitutional, demo-
cratic form of government.
So far as is known here the
South Viet Nam government's
foreign reserves of $165. million
are still intact.
There had been speculation that
some funds may have been cred-
ited to the account of the Nhu
family in foreign banks.
Can't Say
United States officials said they
could not say if any small diver-
sions may have taken place, but
they were certain that there have
been no massive diversions of
funds abroad.
The suspension of some aid pro-
grams has not led to food short-
ages, but there have been specu-
lative price increases and hoard-
ing of flour, cement, chemicals
and steel product. The cost of liv-
ing has risen.
After two months of virtually no
communication with Washington,

The administration of any in-
come tax in the state should be
handled entirely at the state level,
the Michigan Conference of May-
ors meeting in Ann Arbor agreed
yesterday.
Official, Panel
To Investigate
NIH Practices
LOS ANGELES-Dean E. Wool-
dridge, a noted aerospace official,
has agreed to head a White House
study of the National Institutes
of Health, the Los Angeles Times
reported recently.
Wooldridge will chair a panel of
about 12 persons working within
the Office of Science and Tech-
nology, which will make the in-
vestigation.
T h e NIH, which currently'
spends $968 million a year, has
been charged with allegedly grow-
ing too big too fast, either to
manage their programs efficient-
ly or to support consistently high-
quality medical research.
'Overzealous'
Critics have also charged that
Congress was "overzealous" in giv-
ing money to the NIH. Its budget
has been increased almost 15-
fold in a decade as a result of
congressional action.
Dr. James B. Shannon, NIH di-
rector, says the charges are un-
founded. Research supported by
the NIH has been no better or no
worse than the average American
work in laboratories, he has told
Congress.
Dr. Shannon admitted, however'
that his agency was "remiss" in
not establishing from the start as
strong an administrative system
as its system for supporting
scientific research. NIH last year
tightened its rules covering granst
to scientists.
Across the Board
The Wooldridge panel will study
the NIH across the board, study-
ing both the organization of each

Although the mayors felt that
cities should still be allowed to
levy local income taxes, they
agreed that this tax should be col-
lected by the state.
"If an income tax is found to
be necessary, we feel that the only
reasonable and efficient method
lies in a tax administered, collect-
ed and distributed on a state lev-
el," their statement read.
Income Aspect
The meetings were held here toj
discuss the new tax plan proposed!
by Gov. George Romney. Yester-
day's session was devoted entirely
to the income tax aspect of this
program.
The mayors defeated a proposal
to recommend only one state in-
come tax in Michigan.
"It is agreed that there is an
immediate need to simplify and
reform the present system of fi-
nancing governmental operations
on the state and local levels. How-
ever, it is felt that cities and oth-
er local units of government must
be guaranteed at least the same
revenue as these units are present-

ly receiving under the sales
and intangibles provision.

streets. But early today they had
returned to their homes. The city
was quiet.
The wave of celebration was
heightened by the release of Bud-
dhist monks from jails. They had
been arrested earlier this year
in a crackdown by the Diem re-
gime o.'i Buddhists.
Name Tho
In the background, Gen. Duong
Van Minh and his revolutionary
junto named Nguyen Ngoc Tho, a
55-year-old Buddhist, as premier
of the provisional government, but
has not yet made an official an-
nouncement. He was vice-president
under Diem, but had little power.
Whether Tho becomes a real ad-
ministrator or a figurehead under
military control, United States of-
ficials expected South Viet Nam to
drop preoccupation with its poli-
tical-religious crisis and step up
the American-backed war against
Communist guerrillas.

"The state administration and
Legislature should bear in mind
that on the average, approximate-
ly 20 per cent of the total local
income is derived from these
sources.
"In order to insure the fairness
and flexibility of any rebate pro-
gram, provisions for rebate of
state-collected revenues to local
units should be based upon the
size of the recipient relative to the
total state population and a per-
iodic adjustment should be requir-
ed to eliminate inequities result-
ing from different rates of
growth."
Consider Waste'
The mayors felt that "strong
considerationu must be given to
spending reform" in order to curb
"waste and, unnecessary, spending
in state government."
Although the mayors approved
a local income tax, they did not
encourage it be levied on a large
scale basis.

"It doesn't matter to me where'
we play-a night club, a dance,
high schools, colleges-as long as
the music is there.
"We improvise in the program
also," he continued, "and throw
in different songs, according to
our mood." The program is never
the same in any one engagement,
he added.
The University audience, Arm-
strong said, was "really all right!"
"You could tell that this was
a great group because they really
made us work," one of the musi-
cians added.
Constant Demand
