The proposal was part of a committee appropriations report recommending that the state's institutions of high- er education be allotted $329.1 million. The expulsion provision, proposed by Charles 0. Zollar (R-Benton Harbor), stipulates that no part of the higher education appropriation may be used for the salary or edu- cational costs of any students or faculty members convicted of specific actions involving campus disorders. If passed, this clause would, in effect, make expulsion compulsory. Actions falling under the provision's jurisdiction include remaining in campus buildings McCormack to r HOUSE SPEAKER JOHN McCORMACK that he will-not seek reelection in Novem Democrat has served as speaker since 1962. BAM DISRUPTIONS: CSJ dismisse aai nst 4 stil -Associated Press I Central Student Judiciary (CSJ) dismissed cases Tuesday night against four students accused of disrupting classes during the Black Action Movement strike in March. The action was taken when the faculty members who are press- ing charges failed to appear after CSJ decided they had received "adequate notice." The four students involved-are (Peter Denton, Grad, Marc Van Der Hout, '71, Randall Clarke, '72 and Andrei Joseph, '71. The cases of the first three will go back to administrative boards of their respective schools, where they had requested hearings before asking to have their cases removed to CSJ. Joseph, who originally requested a hearing officer, has already had his case heard, although the verdict has not been - - ------released yet. The cases of the Peace group collects 5,000 signatures In six days of canvassing, the Ann Arbor Community Coalition has collected nearly 5000 signa- tures on a petition demanding an end to the w a r in Indochina. About twice that number h a v e been personally urged to w r i t e their representatives in support of congressional action to stop the war. Dr. D o n a1d L. Rucknagel, spokesman for the coalition of Ann Arbor peace groups, s a y s "5000 signatures is reasonably im- pressive, but, since Cambodia, there are many, many more sig- natures and letters available if we can find enough additional can- vassers." The coalition has established a co-ordinating center for the door- to-door effort at the Pine Room of the First Methodist Church. The canvassers are placing new importance on letters to Ann Ar- bor Congressman Marvin L. Esch, as work is completed in the House of Representatives on a measure similar to the McGovern-Hat- field amendment in the Senate. The measure would end funds for military operations in Cambodia in 30 days, in Laos by the end of the year, and would require the withdrawal of all American forc- es from Vietnam by June 30, 1971. The Community Coalition hopes to persuade Esch to join Rep. Donald Riegle (R-Flint) and oth- ers as a co-sponsor of the lasure. The coalition has broadened its efforts to end the war, as a re- sult of several meetings this week. The group plans small gatherings of labor uion leaders, local busi- nessmen, physicians and educators to discuss the war in Indochina. And efforts will be made to ini- tiate door-to-door campaigns and meetings on the w a r in other other three will apparently be held over u n t i 1 fall, s i n c e many witnesses and some of the defendants are gone for the summer, CSJ Member Marc Wohl, '70, said that the faculty members in- volved were to have appeared a week ago, but because one of the defendants had failed to receive official notification of the hear- ing, it was postponed until Tues- day to make sure the plaintiffs had all been notified. The faculty members, - mathe- matics Prof. Bernard Galler, clas- sical studies Prof. Theodore But- trey, Latin Prof. Gerda Seligson, mathematics Prof. Wilfred Kin- kaid and English teaching fellow William Horwath-failed to ap- pear at any of the preliminary hearings as well. In other action, CSJ rejected a plea by Robert Greig, a student, on, behalf of the married students living in the University's North- wood Apts. The plea sought to en- join Director of University Housing John Feldkamp from raising rents to obtain money for paying the Ann Arbor School Board for the education of children riving at Northwoods, as approved by the Regents last week. Also recommended by the Ap- propriations Committee was an allocation of $3.5 million for capi- tal construction at the University -$9.3 million less than the Uni- versity had requested. The $3.5 million includes: j -$100,000 for the completion of renovation of the East Medical1 Bldg.; -$80,000 for the planning of a building on North Campus to house the engineering college; -$500,000 for renovation of the University Hospital; -$150,000 for long-range plan- ning for the modernization and expansion of the medical center; -$826,000 for completion of the Dental Bldg.; -$175,000 for the planning of a classroom and office building at the University's Flint campus; and -$1.7 million for continuing construction of the new Modern Languages Bldg. The $73.2 million allocation recommended by the Senate Ap- propriations Committee is slated for the general fund budget- which includes most of the Uni- versity's funds for instruction,I faculty salaries, and student ser- vices. The University originally re- quested the state to allocate $841 million to the 1970-71 general fund, which would provide an in- crease in general fund expendi- tures of $15.5 million over this year. An appropriation of $73.2 mil- lion, plus the 15 per cent tuition increase, would provide an in- crease in general fund expendi- tures of about $9.3 million. The bulk of the increase is ex-I pected to cover a raise in faculty and staff salaries and fringe ben- efits costing about $6 million. The rest of the increase in- cludes funds for: -The start of a program for increasing black enrollment to 101 a See PANEL, Page 3 . or on campus when requested to leave and participating in any action which leads to a disturbance of normal activi- ties or involves destruction to property or injury to persons. Commenting on the punitive provision of the appropriation bill, Arthur Ross, University vice pres- ident for state relations and plan- ning, said, "I feel that mandatory, legislative penalties are inflexible and unsound." "Such penalties make it more difficult to maintain an effcetive program for stability on campus,'' he added. Vice President for Academic Af- fairs Allan Smith said simply, "I view such measures with disfavor." Zollar said yesterday that he proposed the punitive provision in order to prevent what he feared would be a slash of college budgets in retaliation for recent campus disorders. . "Hopefully, this will give the administration the backbone and guts I think they need," to move against disorders, Z o 11 a r said, adding "Administrators aren't likely to keep anyone they don't get the money to pay for." Rep. William Copeland (D-Wy- andotte), chairman of the House appropriations committee, said last week, "There's not going to be one more damn building built on any campus until those kids are ready to go to school." Countering such opposition, Zol- lar said he would fight any at- tempts to slash the budget during Senate floor deliberation. If the proposed tie-in provision passes the Legislature and is sign- ed by Gov. Milliken, university ad- ministrators could expel any stu- dent who: -"Intentionally constitutes a clear and substantial risk of phys- ical harm or injury to other per- sons," -"Intentionally constitutes a clear an substantial risk of dam- age of property of the institution," or -Participate in the "unreason- able prevention or disruption of the customary and lawful function of the institution by occupying space necessary (for carrying out the institution's functions) or by use of force or by threat of force." These actions are presently pun- ishable by a jail sentence of 90 days and fine of between S200 and $300, as stipulated in a bill signed by Gov. Milliken last week. Ref orm body seeks, GM stoeki By The Associated Press Leaders of a campaign to "make GM responsible," are eying the owners of $8 million shares of General Motors stock who didn't bother to vote their shares at last year's annual meeting. The campaign committee sees these shareholders as an untapped so ce of proxy strength at GM's anfual shareholders meeting Fri- day. The Regents decided at their April meeting that they would continue to cast the University's 28,696 shares in accordance with the GM management's recom- mendations. Campaign spokesmen say their greatest hope is for a wide- ranging shareholder debate at Friday's meeting over the t w o campaign proposals: increasing the board of directors by addition' of three so-called "public" mem- bers and establishment of a share- holders' committee to study com- pany policies. The committee would evaluate the firm's performance in such areas as fighting pollution, pro- duct reliability and the impact of GM policies on Americans in gen- eral. GM management h a s recom- mended that shareholders v o t e against a n y dissident proposals that may arise, maintaining that they are designed to hamper op- erations and to further the cam, paign's special interests which al- legedly include harassment of GM management. Philip W. Moore, 27-year-old executive secretary of the cam- paign, said yesterday that his group has attracted a small num- ber of votes from individuals who indicated they had not voted their shares in the past. The campaign was launched Feb. 7 in Washington with an announcement by consumer ad- vocate Ralph Nader, who lent his name to the campaign but is nob actively involved himself. Nader said he would not attend the an- nual meeting. -Associated Press A 120-MILE PROTEST MARCH by black people continues in Georgia yesterday (upper picture).

(P)-The Rev. Ralph David Abernathy tookj over the reins of a mule-drawn wagon yesterday and led about 400 marchers toward Atlanta afterj calling for federal protection for the group. Meanwhile, a group of congress- men visiting Jackson State College expressed astonishment at the scarred dormitory where two black students were killed by police gun- fire last week. Abernathy is the head of the State panel approves expansion of Dearborn to 4-year college Southern Christian Leadership, Conference (SCLC), which is sponsoring the march in protest of repression in the South and t cross the nation. The march began Tuesday at Perry, Ga., and will end in At- lanta Saturday. Abernathy told the marchersI that this "wave of repression" isj "part of a calculated program ofj genocide against black people and poor people in this country." Abernathy, who said he will be with the march the rest of the way to Atlanta, called for federal pro- tection after noting that Gov. Les- ter Maddox declined to provide a police escort as requested by SCLC. tThe governor assigned state patrolmen to observe the march and put down any disorder if it should occur. "We call upon President Rich- ard Milhous Nixon to provide fed- eral protection to these nonviolent marchers as President Johnson did in the Selma to Montgomery march," Abernathy said in a brief speech before the group left Fort Valley. "If he does not give us that protection, we're going to march anyhow." The current march has been peaceful and with no hint of trou- ble, in sharp contrast to the Ala- hmma manh to wih AbernatKhy "It looks like Normandy . . . the size of the weapons," declared Sen. Birch Bayh, (D-Ind). Bayh said he could find no jus- tification for the heavy . gunfire which raked all five floors of the building as about 200 blacks stood in front of it last Friday morning. "You just don't shoot every- body," he said. "Here you have girls wounded, a full-scale assault. Look at the bullet holes." By ROB BIER The state Senate Appropri- ations Committee gave its go- ahead yesterday for expansion of the University's Dearborn campus to a four-year institu- tion. The action followed a sim- ilar recommendation by Gov. William Milliken last week, de- spite a request a month ago by the State Board of Education for a freeze on expansion funds for the branch campus. planning, said last night. How- ever, he declined to say that ex- pansion at Dearborn was as- sured, as it is still pending final approval by the Legislature. The State Board of Educa- tion's request for a freeze came after a meeting with the Regents in March when the two groups failed to agree on the question of complete autonomy for Dear- born. The Board maintained that any plans for expansion In addition to the freeze on expansion funds, the Board ask- ed for a study of educational needs in the Detroit metropoli- tan area by a citizens' commit- tee. Peter Oppewall, the Board's chairman, said the Board was not sure Dearborn was the ideal site for meeting the educational needs of the inner city and wanted to explore the question further before approving the ex- pansion funds. < t
