Box 5905 Grand Central Station New York, N.Y.10017 ENDS SEARCH FOR NEW HOME Day care center opens at ed school III I I (Continued from Page 1) "Our biggest problem was that we had to work through so many different administrators since no one is actually responsible for us," says Nancy Ross, director of the center. "Secondly," she continues, "we had to find a place. Eventually we came up with two locations- one in the Women's Athletic Bldg. and one in the education school. The rooms in the Athletic Bldg. were our first choice since it was bigger, had kitchen facilities and was accessible to the outside." "We kept trying to get in to see President (Robben) Fleming, who ultimately had to okay the loca- tion, but he was always tied up," Ross says. "So some of us went to Fleming's office and just sat there until he met with us." "Fleming offered us the room in the education school, even though it would have to be re- modeled to fit fire regulations and we could only have it for a year," Ross says. The Athletic dept. claimed its room was too heavily scheduled and refused to grant permission for its use. However, center organizers New VP search to begin say the room was being used only a few hours per week-and for classes which did not use the kitchen facilities. Now that their immediate prob- lems are settled, the center or- ganizers have their eyes aimed toward the future. In October a plan submitted by the Office of Religious Affairs will be discussed by University administrators which proposes that: -The University provide the center with a permanent location, portable units and a subsidy; and -A corporation be set up (to include the center) which would receive a $250,000 loan from the University to set up different cen- ters to suit various needs of the community including infant care, after school care, and increased facilities. all Blue Note JAZZ 395 (our everyday price for 5.98 list records) (Continued from Page 1) advisory role and the vice presi- dent the ultimate authority. In July of last year a compro- mise was reached and did not specify the relationship between the vice president and the policy, board, leaving that matter to be worked out between the two. At the same time as the bylaw controversy was in progress, a search committee was looking for a new vice president for student services. In January 1970, the committee submitted five names to Fleming.

However, as no agreement be- tween Fleming, SGC and the Re- gents was forthcoming, all five candidates either withdrew from consideration or were rejected for the post. After the compromise by - law was finally approved in July, Fleming, in a highly criticized move, went outside the committee and unilaterally appointed Knauss to the vice presidential p o s t. Knauss had been interviewed, but rejected, by the original search committee. SGC endorsed the appointment, however, when Knauss indicated he would accept all policy board decisions. While the vice president for student services is supposed to be a spokesman for students, he is also a part of the administration -putting him in somewhat of a bind if some conflict should arise between the two groups. Further, without explicit rulings that the vice president must abide by the board's decisions, these con- flicts could place him in an even more awkward position. As a result, most student lead- ers emphasize that the new vice president must be a person who will accept decisions of the OSS policy board. OSS reviewed (Continued from Page 1) Policy board members have commented that one of their prin- ciple difficulties in the coming years will be to convince the Re- gents that policy board decisions, as administered by the vice presi- dent, should have the same fi- nality as decisions made by other executive officers. Another threat to the suprem- acy of the OSS board, according to some members, is the possibill- ity that its members will not be sufficiently asquainted with the operation of various OSS units to formulate policies, especially in the area of determining budgets. They fear that unless members are willing to spend sufficient time to learn about OSS operation, the board will become a rubber stamp for the unit directors and other OSS staff members. The OSS policy board consists of five students, four faculty mem- bers, and the vice president for student services who acts as non- voting chairman. V. Vic SAIGON (P) - The U.S. Army acknowledged yesterday that a sizeable contingent of American troops are directly involved in the big South Vietnamese drive to- ward the Laotian frontier initiated Monday. For the first time since the drive started, a U.S. Command spokes- man announced 1,500 to 2,000 U.S. forces joined some 13,500 South Vietnamese troops in sweeping the northwest corner of South Viet- nam. The combined troops, backed by heavy U.S. artillery and air sup- port, have yet to find or engage the North Vietnamese. Hanoi's forces are believed to have pulled back into Laos and North Vietnam, forewarned of the South Vietnamese ground offen- sive by repeated "softening up" raids by B-52 bombers. The bombers have pounded the area daily for the past three weeks with 15 to 25 strikes. Meanwhile, U. S. fighter-bomb- ers struck inside North Vietnam yesterday for the third time this week. The U.S. Command said two Phantom jets attacked two anti- aircraft sites about two miles north of the demilitarized zone after an unarmed photoplane they were escorting was fired upon. Results of the strikes were not known, but U.S. spokesmen said all three U.S. planes escaped un- damaged. A dispatch from Hanoi by the Soviet news agency Tass reported that one U.S. plane was shot down in the Ha Trinh Province. How- ever, a U.S. spokesman said he had not such report and noted the attack yesterday was in QuangnDinh Province, south of Ha Trinh. The fighter - bomber attack In- side North Vietnam was the 58th officially announced strike this year, and the third in the last five days. U.S. fighter - bombers escort- ing photoreconnaissance planes over North Vietnam made attacks againstrantiaircraft sites Mon- day and Tuesday at points 51 and 84 miles north of the DMZ. The U.S. Command said the North Vi- etnamese ground guns fired first on the photoplanes but did not hit them. The United States halted regu- lar bombing of North Vietnam Nov. 1, 1968, but has continued daily reconaissance flights, pho- tographing the country to detect troop and supply movements, new fortifications and other intelli- gence information. r o o p scl offensie -Associated Press Keep smiling! No one is quite sure of the origin of the little yellow smile buttons, such as the one displayed by Harvey Bell, a commercialtf artist.

Support for such a program has grown following a successful six-week "pilot program" operated by the DPW and the Neighborhood Youth Corps. Through the program, NYC members picked up glass, cans and paper around the city before. regular garbage collections. A shift in responsibility for glass, can and paper collection and recycling, from the Ecology Cen- ter to the city, is the chief goal of Pat Taylor, new recycling co- ordinator for the center. He hopes to work out some plan with the city so people can recycle on a simple, convenient and permanent daily basis. 1 As an extension of the pilot pro- gram's glass pick-up, Taylor has helped organize several restaur- State St. at North U.

The Gandy - Dancer, one rest- ourant cooperating with the glass collection, has in the past thrown out over 350 bottles a week, while the Old Heidelburg, another par- ticipant, disposed an estimatk1 240 bottles weekly. Baits housing is also taking ad- vantage of the Center's solid-waste pick-up.

Used papers and cans have fin- ally achieved the status of no-de- posit-nb-return bottles as they are collected at Westgate Shopping Plaza every Saturday between 10:00 A.M. and 6:00 P.M. Fate of extra funds disputed (Continued from Page 1) According to state law, the gov- ernor has the power to cut appro- priations by three per cent at any time within the fiscal year if he deems it expedient. Last November, Milliken ordered a one per cent cut in the UnivW- sity's general fund appropriation, and later ordered another one half per cent cut in January. Yesterday, however, Milliken told reporters he is confident the jstate "has moved to such a point that we are near a balanced bud- get"-and discounted the possil- ity of cutbacks later in the year. Only one week ago, Milliken had blasted what he termed "a tend- ency for self-indulgence" on the part of the legislators, and threat- ened to veto major appropriation bills to prevent a state deficit this year. The governor - now, h o w e v er, seems assured that the two-and- one-half month overdue state bud- get can be balanced at a level of about $2.07 billion. Others apparently are not as optimistic as the governor. Sen. Charles Zollar (R-Benn Harbor) predicted yesterday that overestimation of revenues would cause the governor to order cut- backs by January. If the full three per cent cut were ordered on the University's $78.1 million appropriation, it would deprive the University %f about $2.3 million.
