Krasny said that since possession of mari- juana was still a crime he could not tell his men to turn their backs on the problem. This difference in attitude is re- flected in recent actions by the two departments. In the city, ac- cording to Krasny, a number of Fourth Ward) was critical of the Postill announcement. "The mari- juana problem is really far more serious than most peoples realize. I'm surprised to hear Mr. Postill describe it as his lowest priority." Under current state law, the maximum penalty for possession of marijuana is a jail sentence of ninety days plus a fine of $1,000. City law establishes a maximum against persons because of their sex, race, religion, national or- igin, sexual preference, or educa- tional association. Council passed the ordinance by an 8-3 vote. Council members Bruce Benner (R-Fourth Ward), Richard Hadler (R-Fourth Ward), and L l o y d Fairbanks (R-Fifth Ward) cast the dissenting votes. "The ordinance is a step in the right direction although it is by no means a solution to the problem," Council member Norris Thomas (D-First Ward) said in support of the legislation. During a public hearing on t ordinance, representatives fro four women's rights organizatio voiced strong support for t measure. "This ordinance has con about because of the women's ma movement," added Council mer ber Nancy Wechsler (HRP-Seco Ward).

" Art in Israel CUE presents sweeping course reform program (Continued from Page 1) guage requirements-is based on a questionnaire distributed to 1,088 LSA students in February, 1972. In the survey, students were ask- ed to indicate the reasons for en- rolling in certain courses and whether the courses made a posi- tive or negative contribution to their education. Some of the survey results indi- cate that when a student is forced to take a course the positive edu- cational contributions are lessen-' ed. Many students also indicated; that there should be more options to choose from in fulfilling the various requirements. Nearly all the students ques- tioned urged the elimination of the language requirement. Some{ suggested increasing the options to include courses in foreign cultures, linguistics, mathematics and com- munications. Other students sug- gested devoting a completese- mester to the study of a foreign culture, learning and using its language. In the spring of 1969, after months of student demonstrations Daily Classifiel and protests over language re- quirements, the University estab- lished a new degree called the Bachelor of General Studies (BGS) which has no distribution and foreign languages requirements. CUE's plan would extend the BGS' freedom from requirements to all degrees. The thrust of the study is that students should be allowed and en- couraged to take a well-rounded and balanced selection of courses but they should not be forced into areas which they are not inter- ested in. The study notes that m o s t studentssindicated they would "probably" or "definitely" take courses in foreign languages; and other distribution areas even if they were not required. The CUE study concludes that "..students feel a well-rounded liberal arts education is educa- tionally positive, and something most students would pursue on their own." But students feel that the present distribution require- ments "not only are tied up withj negative course experiences, but they actually obstruct the pursuit of a liberal arts education."
