"We don't need to stay at Sepone," said one South Viet- namese staff officer". "We don't want to be in the position of sitting ducks. We want to keep mobile." The movement of South Vietnamese troops in Laos came as ground fighting again was described as sporadic.

TRIGGERED BY KIDNAPINGS: Turk a rmy verth rows regi-mein peacefulIcoup ANKARA, Turkey (A) - T h e Turkish armed forces overthrew the government yesterday, but made no move to take over actualI rule as they did 11 years ago. I Premier Suleyman Demirel re- signed under an ultimatum, trig- gered by the kidnaping of four U.S. airmen, from the military to quit or face a military takeover. It amounted to a coup d'etat byE communique. The military demanded a gov- ernment strong enough to halt 'anarchy.' The move came after months of unrest and violence climaxed last week by the kidnaping of the U.S. airmen stationed in Turkey. Following a three-hour meeting' with his cabinet, Demirel submit- ted h i s resignation to President Cevdet Sunay, w h o is expected to ask someone acceptable to the FO UR RECOMMENDA TIONS Committee seeks new LSA dean military to form a new govern- ment. Turkey, an ally of the United States in the North Atlantic Treaty Organization, is a nation of 4 million bordering the Soviet Union. Army leaves were canceled and units in this capital c it y were placed on partial alert, but the country seemed calm. The ultimatum was issued by the country's four leading mili- tary men in the form of a memo- randum to the president and the leaders of the Assembly and Sen- ate. As broadcast by state radio it said: "The continuing attitude and behavior of t h e parliament and government has pushed our country into anarchy, fratricide, and social and economicrunrest." The generals demanded a new government "above party politics," and warned: "if this is not speed- ily realized t h e Turkish armed forces arerdeterminedtoseize power to protect the Turkish re- public as is their duty according to law." The memorandum w a s signed by Gen. Memduh Tagmac, chief of the general staff; army com- mander Gen. Faruk Gurler, air force commander Gen. Muhsin Ba- tur, and navy commander Adm. Celal Eyicioglu. By GERI SPRUNG The student-faculty committee charg- edwith finding a new deaniof the literary college is entering the final month of its search for a successor to former Dean William Hays. The committee is scheduled to recom- mend a group of four candidates for the position to President Robben Fleming by April 1. Fleming and the Regents will then make the final selection. Since Hays' departure a year ago, Al- fred Sussman, former associate dean of the literary college, has been serving as acting dean. Trn- a hie nrt lo QtgYnxrSiivi now Committee members are also fearful that if the names were made public, the nom- inees would withdraw. "Finding a dean is not easy," Fine says. "One has to find a man who will be satis- factory to all the constituencies of the literary college. "One of the major concerns of any- one appointed dean," he adds, "is that he carry sufficient weight with the higher administration. This is necessary to en- sure that the literary college receives a good share of the budget for faculty salaries and educational programs." Other qualities Fine thinks the new job and "not limit ourselves by the per- sons' political beliefs." "We are gambling on a man, rather than on a particular committed approach," Fine said. Hoffman thinks that in the past the dean has always been a politician rather than a manyofsvision. To change this role he says the committee is now looking for people who have a vision of undergrad- uate education and who have proposals for educational reform. Of the 90 candidates nominated, 40 are from within the University, while the re- maining 50 were selected from o t h e r universities. G u r l r s Seale jaurl trial opens NEW HAVEN, Conn.
