"I don't think they have any
evidence that anyone has been
cheating," said art school Prof.
George Manupelli at the Tuesday
meeting. "They're trying to force
one or two film organizations out
of business and in the process get
these regulations on the others
so that in the future they can
intervene in their affairs when
it suits their purposes." Manu-
pelli is director of the Ann Arbor

Although University officials at

sized that some student organiza-

individuals seeking to profit from
business enterprises."
C U R R E N T SGC regulations,
said Kennedy in a July letter to
the SOB, make "no adequate pro-
vision for enforcement" of pro
visions governing the activities of
student organizations
Although Kennedy conceded
yesterday that he could "appre
ciate" concerns that increasing
the fitim groups' financial oc-
countability ii g h t limit their
autonomy and freedom of expres-
sion, he called "far-fetched" the
idea that accounting procedures

month recess of its televised
hearings, is seriously considering
speeding up the investigative pro-
cess when hearings resume in
September.
IN HIS SPEECH, Nixon said:
"The time has come to turn Wat-
ergate over to the courts .- .
The time has come for the rest
of us to get on with the urgent
business of the government."
Gurney echoed that sentiment
when he said, "The committee
hearings have dragged on far
too long and are seriously af-
fecting the ability of the govern-
ment to function. The economy
and our relations with nations
abroad are being seriously ne-
glected by both the executive and
the legislative branches."
Some committee members had
no immediate reaction. Others
expressed disappointment with
what they said was lack of a de-
tailed presidential defense. Some
disagreed sharply that the in-
volvement of seven senators was
causing the legislative process to
bog down or that there was a de-
liberate attempt to implicate the
President.
INITIAL FOREIGN reaction to
President Nixon's Watergate
speech was almost universal in
saying he did not tell the Ameri-
can people enough. Nixon's

AT THE White House, Deputy
Press Secretary Gerald Warren
refused to say whether President'
Nixon ordered Richardson to out-
line the evidence to Agnew.
He said Nixon met with the at-
torney general the same day as
the Richardson - Agnew meeting,
adding that the White Houseses-
sion was "a private meeting
and it will renmain that way."
strongest support came from the
Soviet press. The influential Ja-
panese newspaper Asahi said in
an editorial it didn't think Amer-
icans were satisfied with the re-
marks on Wednesday.
In his speech Nixon repeated
previous denials and said he was
not involved in or aware of either
the Watergate break-in and bug-
ging or the later cover-up.
He defended his decision not
to release tape recordings of his
conversations with former presi-
dential counsel John Dean and
other staff members who have
been linked to the scandal in
sworn testimony before the Sen-
ate committee.
ASKING FOR the nation's un-
derstanding a n d cooperation,
Nixon said it is clear to him that
the hearings "have become in-
creasingly absorbed in an effort
to implicate the President per-
sonally in the illegal activities
that took place."
"We're just trying to find out
if a crime was committed in the
White House," said Sen Herman
Talmadge (D-Ga.) a committee
member and one of several sena-
tors who took issue with Nixon's
criticism of the committee.
Talmadge renewed a plea for
the President to release the
tapes, said he does not believe
that type of information is privi-
leged.
Ervin said he believes Nixon
has taken a "queer position"
when he said the presidency
would be damaged as an institu-
tion if the tapes of his conversa
tions with aides were released.
"THE CONSTITUTION would
not fall, the presidency wouldn't
be destroyed and the heavens
aomdn'i fall" if the tapes were
reinmised. Es in said.
