The move came as a surprise to most observers. SGC had been expected to hear charges of improper conduct against Orson Welles last night and to act on the allegations Nov. 10. The agreement between Vic Gutman, director of Stu- dent Organizations, and representatives of Orson Welles, will prevent the group from further campus film showings as of Dec. 23. Gutman originally charged Orson Welles with signing for use of an auditorium under an assumed name and with ad- vertising while failing to iden- -- tify the sponsoring organiza- tion. Reserves Prior to last night he had planned to bring an expanded group of charges to SGC, includ- ] ing allegations that Orson Welles en lis tm e n t used a film without permission from the distributor, harassed other campus film groups and op- erated for profit.

SGC to resume filling seats on advisory units By LINDSAY CHANEY After a prolonged lapse, Stu-' dent Government C o u n c 11 will begin appointing student repre- sentatives to a wide variety of University advisory committees. Over 15 student posts are cur- rently open on the advisory com- mittees of Senate Assembly, the, faculty representative group, and ion such units as the Board of Directors of University Cellar and the Office of Student Services Pol- icy Board. The failure of the present SGC administration to make appoint- ments is the result of a "break- down in the appointing mechan- ism," according to SGC President Rebecca Schenk. "SGC has not made appoint-' ments to advisory committees for' a long time," said Schenk. "As a result, we do not have an appoint- ing procedure." Schenk said she was not aware of the number of student open- ings on Senate Assembly commit- tees until two weeks ago. Previous SGC administrations, have been reluctant to appoint' student representatives to com- By MARCIA ZOSLAW Anti-war veterans will protest the Indochina war on Michigan Stadium's Tartan Turf as part of t h e Marching Band's anti - war halftime show for the Oct. 30 Homecoming game. Plans call for a band formation *to demonstrate band concern; then for the spectators to remain stand- ing after the Alma Mater for a moment of silence in memory of Asian and American dead in the Indochina war. Following this, the veterans, un- der the aegis of Vietnam Veterans Against the War will line up at he end of the stadium. While the bands plays taps, the veterans will release black helium-filled balloons in commemoration of the war dead. University officials agreed Tues-1 day to implement the Homecoming theme endorsed by Student Gov- 4rnment Council-"Bring all the troops home now; Let's have a real homecoming" - by allowing the anti-war halftime activities. 1.000 demonstrators, sat down in the streets and on sidewalk curbs at the intersection of Pennsylvania; Ave. and 15th streets, one block from the White House. According to Chicago 7 defend- ant John Froines, also a PCPJ leader, the group considers the arrests "unconstitutional" and will fight them in court. The basis of the argument, he said, is that while a permit was granted for a march to the White House Monday, the government refused the permit for Tuesday when Monday's demonstration was rained out. Later, however, a PCPJ legal advisor discounted the constitu- tional aspect of the court contest. While refusing to comment di- rectly on what thrust PCPJ's legal strategy would take; he did prom-j ise "extensive litigation fightinga on what happened yesterday." The actions leading to the ar- rests came at the end of the week long Phase One of PCPJ's year-, long strategy to "force the Presi- dent out of office." See PCPJ, Page 8 DISCRIMINA TION CASE Arbitrators postpone- decision on Hunter's return to city post mittees which do not have policy- making power or committees where students do not have parity with f a c u It y members, according to Schenk. "I agree with this philosophy," said Schenk, "But as a practicalf matter,.I think students should have an input in decision-making."1 Some observers believe that SGC has begun the appointment mech- anism at this time to assert its authority as an all-campus stu- dent government by appointing graduate as well as undergraduate students. In the past, the now-defunct Graduate Assembly made appoint-' ments when a committee specific-G ally required a graduate student and SGC was invited to make undergraduate appointments and! appointments which did not spec-1 ify whether the position was for a graduate or undergraduate. A Graduate Federation, which is designed to take over the func- tions of the old Graduate Assem- bly, has not yet been ratified by all graduate college governments. SGC thus hopes to take advantage of the lack of a graduate appoint- ing body to make all graduate appointments itself. SGC has long contended that it is the only body authorized to make committee appointments - graduate or undergraduate. According to the SGC constitu- tion, Council is empowered to "serve as the appointing body for selection of members of student committees, student representa- tives to University committees and student representatives to outside bodies."

No specific quotas have been set and none is anticipated, Marrs said. But, he added, the ultimate goal is to have the makeup of Guard and Reserve units reflect proportionately the local neighbor- hood racial patterns.
