(Continued from Page 1) This position was unanimously endorsed Tuesday by the execu- tive council of the literary col- lege student government, which called upon the committee to submit only the original propos- al. "Further advisory structures (as called for by the alternate proposal) will not change the decision-making position of stu- dents and does not represent a viable alternative to the ori- ginal proposal," the executive council said in its resolution. The committee meets tomor- row to decide whether to pre- sent one or two drafts to the faculty. Established at the April meet- ing of the faculty, the commit- tee was directed to draft a plan for a student-faculty council which would exist as a standing committee of the governing fa- culty. But by the end of June, the ten members of the committee had reached general agreement on proposing that the council have considerably more author- ity than faculty had suggested. Following an open hearing on the legislature proposal in Aug- ust, faculty members began sub- mitting strongly critical com- ments on the tentative draft. Urging a rejection of the pro- posal, economics Prof. Gardner Ackley said he did not believe students should be allowed to participate in legislative decis- ions. Students, he said, do not "possess the maturity, exper'- ience and sound judgment need- ed" for such decisions. "I have participated in enough joint student-faculty sessions to fear the possibility that even a relatively small number of stu- dent activists might - through irrelevancies; obstructionism, emotionalism, and know-noth- ingism - paralyze sensible dis- cussion and decision-making," Ackley continued. He maintained that such a development would prompt "the more sober and serious students and faculty" to resign from the Assembly, allowing it "to become the almost exclusive forum of student extremists." In another memo, Prof. David Segal expressed concern that the. veto power granted to the fa- culty is not "adequate." "I do not believe it should fall to the Governing Faculty to call an extraordinary meeting within 15 days of the passage of an As- sembly action to prevent t h a t action from taking effect," he said. "Presumably, the disruption of a single faculty meeting could prevent the faculty from over- ruling an action of the Assembly before it took effect," Segal add- ed. "Our students have all too frequently demonstrated that they are not above disruption." Meanwhile, the student mem- bers of the committee which drafted the proposal express their own reservations about the plan, particularly criticizing the faculty's retention of the veto power and the power to take le- gislative action which w o u 1 d supercede the action of the As- sembly. However, they feel that ac- ceptance of the proposal would represent a significant improve- ment over the current structure. "If it is accepted, things will be a lot better than now - but that isn't saying much," says Brian Ford, vice president of the LSA student government and co-chairman of the govern- ance committee. David Brand, president of the LSA student government and a committee member, believes that the faculty's acceptance of the alternate draft would. seriously hurt future attempts to bring about the creation of a stu- dent- faculty legislature. "It would stop debate on the issue," Brand says. He believes the committee should present the faculty with only the ori- ginal draft. History Prof. Samuel Barnes, a member of the committee who helped draft the alternative pro- posal, feels that if the second draft were not presented to the faculty along with the original one, they would adopt 'a pro- posal which would be similar to the second draft but "might not be as good." .wr:;r " ,wr.-t_ ~~ .-- .r wr._ Cairo blacks, police clash CAIRO, Ill. (/)-About 50 armed policemen and special deputies clubbed and arrested black pickets outside white businesses'in down- town Cairo last night. Several pickets were reported injured in the disorder. A special deputy was reported wounded by gunfire elsewhere in this racially- troubled city on the southern tip of Illinois. Leonard Boscarine, a newsman for the Cairo Evening Citizen who witnessed the disorder, said the pickets were peacefully demon- strating against white downtown merchants. He said the police-who he de- scribed as white men wearing hel- mets and carrying nightsticks and guns-waded into the pickets to make arrests when a shot was fired. Boscarine did not know who fired the shot. They then clubbed the pickets, he said. The United Front, a black com- munity group, has been leading a black boycott of downtown mer- chants for two years, demanding more jobs for blacks.

Also dismissed this week was Prof. Ed Dutton, who declared he was being disciplined for his in- volvement in farm labor organi- zing activities. Joseph Toney, assistant chem- istry professor, said his contract was not being renewed because of his backing of a black edition of the school newspaper. The other five faculty members said they were told their contracts would not be renewed after t h e spring semester. Zumwalt's removal as depart- ment chairman is the latest de- velopment in a long history of conflict between the English de- partment and the college's admin- istration. Last year Dr. Ralph Rea was ap- pointed Dean of the Humanities department despite the strong ob- jections of the English faculty. As Dean, Rea has come into constant conflict with the English department. He has been charged with sending, "spies" into the classrooms of some of the English faculty and has admitted sending his secretary to observe and take notes of a class on one occasion. Rea dismissed Frost Tuesday for reasons Zumwalt described as "ca- pricious". Among the reasons given, them were Frost's discussing of college problems with his students and his serving as a draft coun- selor. Due to Zumwalt's popularity with students, strong reaction to his removal is expected. Students and some faculty members gather- ed in small groups near the Eng- lish department Friday. No inci- dents, were reported, but police said they;took precautions to pre- vent any disruptions. Zumwalt said he is against vio- lence and that he hopes the cam- pus will remain peaceful.
