A proposal recommending that the University provide a
$250,000 loan for the establishment of a parent-controlled
child care corporation was released Sunday by Vice President
Robert Knauss through the Office of Student Services
(OSS.)
According to Knauss, the proposal has been released in
order "to spark discussion and comment throughout the
community." It will be submitted formally to the executive
officers when all available information has been assembled.

SAIGON (M - As President
Nguyen Van Thieu yesterday
claimed h i s overwhelming
majority in re-election was a
defeat for communism in
South Vietnam and a victory
for democracy, charges of
fraud mounted swiftly as re-
sults were posted in Sunday's
uncontested balloting.
Vice President Nguyen Cao Ky
and Duong Van Minh, who at first
challenged Thieu but withdrew,l
remained silent. They had charg-
ed that the election was rigged
from the start of the campaign,
As the final results were tabu-
lated from 44 provinces, 11 cities
and among soldiers in Cambodia,E
minor anti - government dem-
onstrations occurred in Saigon
and Qui Nhon, but were nothing
comparable to the outbursts in Da
Nang, where atnleast 3 persons
were killed and nearly 60 wound-
ed over the weekend.
Opponents of Thieu and inde-
pendent observers raised questions
about the proprietysof the vot-
ing and there were some outright
charges that the balloting was
rigged.
One of these came from Ngo
Cong Duc, publisher of an anti-
Thieu newspaper and former Na-
tional Assembly deputy. He ac-
cused the government of having
distributed 3 million blank vot-
ing cards "to be used in case of a
low voter turnout."
Covering the election in Long
An Province south of Saigon, an
American television crew said it
filmed a voter casting two ballots.
The voter said the second one was
for his wife, who couldn't come
to the polling place.
In Saigon, anelection official
said all polling places were or-
dered in advance to replace in-
valid, meaning anti Thieu. ballots
with valid ones and to call police
if newsmen tried to visit the polls.
He said more than 400 ballots
were replaced at his polling sta-
tion.
The Vietnamese National Elec-
tion Center gave Thieu 91.5 per
cent of the ballots cast. His press
secretary estimated the vote
against Thieu at 5.5 per cent. No
accounting was given for the oth-
er 3 per cent.

PROPOSAL STILL NEEDS
APPROVAL OF REGENTS
By MARK DILLEN
University faculty representatives overwhelmingly en-
dorsed late last night a proposed policy banning most classi-
fied research from the University.
Senate Assembly, the faculty representative body, asked
an end to all secret research except "in cases where the pro-
posed research is likely to contribute so significantly to the
advancement of knowledge as to justify infringement of the
freedom to publish openly."

riot in Dallfas
DALLAS (/P) - More than 800
Dallas County jail prisoners staged
a mattress - burning melee last
night, sheriff's officers reported.
They said one prisoner died of
unknown causes, two were injured
and a guard suffered a heart at-
tack during the two-hour distur-
bance.
A sheriff's department sonokes-
man said prisoner Lawrence Jack-
son, 36, was pronounced dead on;
arrival at Parkland Hospital. The
only injury seen on Jackson was
a cut on his left hand, he said,
and the reason for his death was
not apparent.
Jailer Willie R. Romans, 50.'
was hospitalized at Parkland with
what the spokesman said was a
heart attack.
Two prisoners received minor
injuries and were also taken to
the hospital. They were Benja-
min Howell Jr., 34, and James
E. Clayton, 25, both of Dallas.
The trouble began when a fire
was reported on the downtown
jail's 11th floor. A sheriff's de-
partment spokesman said the dis-
turbances quickly spread to the
12th floor where other inmates
began setting mattress fires.

tial staff, facilities and office
space be funded by the Univer-j
sity.
In addition. the proposal recom-
mends that the University provide
the existing Child Care Action
C-nter with a Termanent site and
facilities and assume rent, main-
tenance and other services for two
years. After this time, the center
wou'd assume its own 0xoenses.
Citing a lack of funds and fa-
cilties, the Regents last year re-
jecteda child care proposal which
called for a joint University-city
funded children's center. The Re-
gent's veto followed a year of ef-
forts by women's groups to start
a center at the University.
The University has provided fa-j
cilities and some services to theI
Center in the past, but the fa-
cilities have always been suppliedj
on a temporary basis. The cen-
ter has been forced to relocate
four times in the last 15 months.
Coordinators of the center have

the operation of a 12 - member
committee to review requests for
exemptions from the policy.
Primary among those decisions
were ones specifying the commit-
tee's composition. As approved, the
proposal calls for two members
of the committee to be "philo-
sophically opposed" to classified
research.
In addition the committee would
include two members engaged in
classified research at the time of
their appointment to the com-
mittee.
The-remaining eight would be
"broadly- representative of the
University' community," although
f u t u r e interpretation of this
p h r a s e was not clear at last
night's meeting.
The 12-member board is also
to include three students. Assem-
bly will determine the selection
procedure for the student mem-
bers at a later date.
All classified research would
continue to be administered under
a slightly altered guideline pro-
hibiting research "the specific
purpose or clearly foreseeable re-
sult of which is to destroy human
life or to incapacitate human be-
ings."
This guideline would apply to
research that is classified "for
access only" as well as research on
which there are limitations on the
publication of results.
W h e n projects are classified
"for access only" all the results
of the project are open but the
researcher requires a s e c u r i t y
clearance for using secret infor-
mation, equipment or facilities in
preparing the project.
"Access only" projects would be
the one remaining area of classi-
fied research generally permitted
by the Schuman proposal.
Last night, as in previous As-
sembly debate it was the academic
arguments against secrecy in the
University community, andnot
the military nature of much of
present University classified re-
search, that provided the impetus
for change.
Meanwhile, the fate of the pres-
ent clearing-house for secret re-
search, the Classified Research
Committee (CRC), remains un-
clear. Schuman emphasized last
night that CRC not be "done away
with" but rather that the faculty-
student committee be reorganized
to conform with the new changes.
four-dak revolt at the maximum
security prison three weeks ago,
The New York Times reported
yesterday.
In, a detailed, hour-by-hour ac-
count of the prison insurrection,
the Times relates how a "chance
misunderstanding" in the prison
yard climaxed with the loss of 41
lives.
The incident in the prison yard
occurred as a white inmate-said
said to be a defensive coach for a
prison football team-showed a
young black inmate some line-
men's moves and feints.
A prison officer coming into the
yard thought the two prisoners
were fighting and-approaching
the men from the rear-placed his
hand on the black man's shoulder.
"Acting apparently on in-
stinct, (the inmate) spun around
and struck the guard" -a stun-
ning breach of prison order, the
Times reported.
Later that evening when the
two inmates were summoned for
questioning, a rumor circulated
among the prisoners that the two
men had been beaten.
Next morning on their way to
breakfast a group- of prisoners
"burst into rebellion" and the re-
volt was on.
Piecing together the ensuing
story through interviews with leg-
islators, lawyers, doctors and ne-
gotiators and by examining tapes,
films, letters and notebooks from
inside the prison, the Times re-
cords the following tension-filled
days from both inside and out-
side the prison yard.
Although the new Commissioner
of Correction Russell Oswald ini-
tially agreed to negotiate with the
prisoners on their demands as the
days ticked away with no settle-
ment made, Oswald felt pressured
to take further action.
At this time rumors of atroci-
ties by the rebels were spreading
among prison and state officials
and two days later troops of state
police stormed the prison, squash-
ing the revolt.
"There was virtually no resist-
ance from the prisoners" the
Times reported, though over 40
fatalities occurred.
After the riotwas quelled pri-
soners were forced- to crawl on
their elbows and knees into the
cell block with their faces in the
dirt, the Times reports.

MILLIKEN TO A C '

By CARLA RAPOPORT
University officials confirmed last night
they are prepaying for an impending cut-
back in the University's recently approved
$78.1 million appropriation for fiscal 1971-72.
