LIack By ROB BIER Daily News Analysis A sweeping study of the literary college from financial aids to the philosophy of education is near the point of becoming reality. But two things are holding it up -money and the departure of William Hays as dean of the college. Both factors could have considerable effect upon what kind of study eventually is begun. But for now, as Associate Dean Alfred Sussman puts it, "The project is at dead center." A preliminary study began in October, 1969 when a committee chaired by Suss- man was formed to examine the idea of a commission to study the literary college and to make recommendations on how that commission should be set up and what it should study. The committee's proposals were released of dean, funds logjams LSA in March in a 40-page report. Sprinkled liberally with references to writers who criticize various aspects of higher educa- tion, the report uses those comments as the basis for questioning the literary college and thereby indicating areas to be studied. A few of the questions in the report are: -"What does a degree from the College of Literature, Science, and the Arts certify about the recipient of the degree?" -"Does the present structuring of the College into Departments impede inter- disciplinary and program studies?" -"Are there better ways of making use of the ability of the graduate student to teach undergraduates (than the present teaching felloW system) ?" -"Can a fair and appropriate role for student participation in budget planning be identified?" -"Is there any reason to consider total submersion of the present faculty and stu- dent governing bodies in a joint assembly?" -"How should the College respond to social needs? Or should it?" In addition to related questions in all of these areas, the report suggests exam- ining the basic purpose of a liberal arts education and how the college should meet it; the issue of faculty tenure, interdis- ciplinary professors and meeting the changing demands and attitudes of younger faculty members; and the college's rela- tions with other units in the University, with the public as a group of individuals and society as a whole. The report places the time required for the study at about a year and a half. But Hays says, "Two years of hard work would be required to produce anything remotely resembling a planning report." The next step, according to Sussman, would be the establishment of a commis- sion to take the preliminary report and establish priorities among the many issues raised by it. Then the commission would decide how best to do the study itself. "We might have task forces to study each of the questions identified as prior- ities," Sussman says. "The thing to avoid is instant solution which are trivial." To do that, Sussman says the "task forces" would be given relatively limited assigments, thus allowing them to study their given problem in enough dept to make recommendations which will be use- ful both now and in the future. "The work might not be limited to task forces, however. If some existing body, such as Student Government Council or Senate Asembly, is more suited to a particular area, then I'd like to see them take part," Sussman says. But the study is effectively stalled for the time being, primarily because of a lack of funds. The report asks for a budget of $142,000 to pay for a chairman, admin- istrative secretary, consultants, survey costs, a regular secretary and supply costs. "A couple of years ago that much money wouldn't have been outside the realm of possibility," Sussman says "but given the expected appropriation from the Legisla- ture, we're in a lot of trouble." However, even given the possibility of a smaller budget, Sussman says he cannot speculate on what form the study might take because of the changeover in eans at the literary college. Hays, who has been dean for two years, is leaving July 1 for a year of study at the University Of California in Santa Barbara. When hereturns, he will take over a new position as Associate Vice President for study Academic Development, working in the of- fice of Vice President for Academic Affairs Allan Smith. Smith discounts the impact of Hays' departure on the form the study would take, but Hays says, "I wouldn't be sur- prised if the study were held until an acting dean was appointed." Sussman agrees that this is exactly what will hap- pen. The name of the acting dean will be released in the next few weeks, probably in time for the June 19 Regents' meeting, and the state's appropriation to the University should also be known by then. With both uncertainties cleared up, the study will be ready to proceed, although perhaps in a limited or somewhat different form.

Pentagon sources said two Viet- ,namese civilians, a woman and her nephew, were wounded. The woman reportedly died later and her nephew, whose age was not specified, recovered. The formal announcement said that Capt. Vincent N. Hartmann, 34, of Scranton, Pa., and 1st Lt. Robert G. Lee, 22, of Springfield, Mo., had been charged "with the attempted murder of an unspeci- fied number of human beings .. . by ordering members of their command to fire into buildings used for human habitation" on orI about June 15 last year. The announcement provided few details, but sources said shots were fired against two huts out of five ina asmall settlement. The maximum penalty for at- tempted murder is 20 years. Both officers are now assigned to the Army Infantry school bri- gade at Ft. Benning, Ga. They were serving with the 9th Infantry Devision at the time of the incident, whose location was not specified in the announce-I ment, beyond saying it was "inj the delta area of Vietnam." Hartmann commanded Com- pany C. 2nd Battalion, 39th In-: fantry, and Lee was a platoon leader in the same unit. The Pentagon said Col. Charles C.

Allen is expected to take a year leave immediately following his resignation, then return to the law school as a member of the faculty. Yesterday the University 'also officially announced the resignation of William Hays, dean of the literary college. Hays, who was appointed dean July 1, 1968, will spend the next academic year with the psychology department of the University of California at Santa Barbara, then return to the University as a s s o e i a t e vice president for academic development.,_ The 50-year-old Allen, who was appointed dean of the law school July 1, 1966, said -Associated Press PRESIDENT NIXON and Evangelist Billy Graham and his wife arrive at Neyland Stadium on the campus of the University of Tennesse last night where Nixon addressed Youth Night of the Graham Crusade. Nixon addresses Gr"aham crusade KNOXVILLE, Tenn. DP - President Nixon told a Billy Graham crusade last night that youth must turn to "those great spiritual resources which have made America what it is." It was Nixon's first campus speech in almost a year, and the oval football stadium of the University of Tennessee over- flowed with an audience estimated at 75,000. The President stood through a long, loud standing ova- tion, smiling and nodding while the small group of dissidents chanted: "One, two, three, four, we don't want Nixon's war." The answer came back in boos from the throng. Evangelist Graham, Nixon said, told him there would be, Associated Press Break it up now, boys and girls National Guardsmen at Ohio State University hold their rifles in a ready position as they broke up a demonstration yesterday of 150 marshmellow throwing protesters.

He said he was proud the great majority of America's young people do not approve of violence and, as he said he does, "do ap- prove of dissent. "But, they say they want the right to be heard and when they speak they think other people should be silent so that they can be heard," he added. "And so, it is a generation that is not the lost generation, as some Americans think. It isn't the beat generation. It isn't the beat-up generation.

Gunnarson would not reveal which groups he was referring to. Gunnarson said he had "noth- ing to do with" any decision to call in police to intervene with the demonstrators. However, the Ma- comb County sheriff's office said yesterday they plan to "take whatever action is necessary to see that no laws are broken." Because the protesters will not be allowed on the base, it is likely that they will congregate in a large empty field outside the Navy gate. The sheriff's office said if "the owner" chooses to ask them to leave, deputies will make sure they do. Tomorrow's march will start at the corner of Woodward and Kirby in Detroit at 11 a.m. and proceed to Kennedy Square where the rally will be held from ap- proximately noon until 2 p.m. Speakers will include State Rep. Jackie Vaughn III (D-Detroit), James Lafferty, co-chairman of the Detroit Coalition, Jacqueline Rice, a black liberation and wo- men's liberation activist, and Ger- ald Brown, a GI from Selfridge. Also speaking at the rally will be the president of the Wayne County AFL-CIO, Tom Turner, whose union has come out in full support of the protest for the first time. A supportive statement by Michigan AFL-CIO President Gus Scholle is included in the union newsletter. Buses will be provided to trans- port the 20,000-30,000 people ex- pected from Kennedy Square to his decision to 1 e a v e was "b a s e d entirely on personal considerations." He added that he had "the highest regard for this great law school and for the University of which it is a part." Allen also said he would like to do some work in the area of juve- Snile problems within the legal sys- tem. Sources in the law school cited the turbulance of the past year9 centering around the Black Law7 Student Alliance (BLSA) as a major factor in Alen's decision to resign. Demands by' the BLSA for greater numbers ofhblack students in the law school and a revision of admissions requirements has cre- ated divisions within the law school faculty, and as dean, Allen found himself in the middle of the controversy, the sources said. In addition to the BLSA de- mands, Allen was also faced with requests to secure new facilities for the law school, especially a larger library, and with deciding how to expand the school's legal aid service. However, the problem of secur- ing funds for increased construc- tion and expansion has been com- mon throughout the University over the past four years. Commenting on Allen's resigna- tion, Vice President for Academic Affairs Allan Smith said, "Frank Allen took the deanship with the understanding that, after five See ALLEN, Page 2 State denies trial appeal LANSING (M-)-The state court of appeals denied a motion today seeking a change in trial site for John Norman Collins, accused of killing an Eastern Michigan Uni- versity coed last summer.
