Relaxed Slightly
WASHINGTON, March 28-01)
-The Government yielded to re-
quests for relaxation of controls
over size for new housing today--
by exactly 150 square feet.
But to take advantage of that
you have to be building a house
without a basement. The 150
square feet leeway was authorized
by housing expediter Frank R.
Creedon for utility rooms.
House Defers
Discussiol of
Gas Tax Boost,
LANSING, March 28 - (A') -
State representatives today hur-
riedly deferred debate on a meas-
ure proposing a two-cent hike in
the gasoline tax to Wednesday
when it unexpectedly appeared on
the floor.
During the interim, a movement
to have the bill referred to the
committee on general taxation
for further study and possibly a
public hearing was expected to
gain momentum.
The bill, introduced several
weeks ago by Rep. Emil A. Peftz,
Rogers City Republican, had been
considered and was reported out
by the Committee on Roads and!
Bridges. This committee revised
Peltz's proposed formula for dis-
tribution of the estimated $25,000,-
000 revenue of the measure.
The committee suggested 41 per
cent be paid to the State High-
way Department, 41 pei, cent to
counties, and 18 per cent to mu-
nicipalities. The original bill al-
located 45 per cent to the state,
35 to the counties and 20 to the
municipalities.
Rep. Elton R. Eaton, Plymouth
Republican and Taxation Commit-
tee chairman, was one of the lead-
ers in the agitation for referral
to his group.
"I. certainly think the commit-
tee charged with the study of new
taxation measures should have a
chance to study this bill," he said.
The House passed and sent to
the Governor Senate approved
bills which would:
Permit appointment by probate
courts of conservators of the es-
tates of persons absent because of
war service.

Michigan's first student, class of
1845, had troubles.
Enrolling at the university in thet
fall of 1841, just 105 years and an
estimated 149,513 students ago Ly-
man Decatur Norris was the only
student on campus for three
weeks. And in spite of the fact
that he had the undivided attten-
tion of the entire faculty of four,
he was lonely.
Other students appeared before
long, however, and Norris soon
had grounds to suspect that he
was going to college and not mere-
ly being tutored. But he didn't
graduate with his class. In the
spring of 1814, the faculty decided
to send him East to Yale, in order
to compare the curricula of the
two universities. He came back in
1845 with a Yale degree in time
to attend the graduating exercises
of his old class.
Norris received the honorary
master of arts degree from the
University in 1869 and was later a
regent. He practiced- law in Yp-
silanti and Grand Rapids.
Pollock To Return
After Duty Abroadtl
Prof. James K. Pollock of the
political science department, who
has spent the past two months in
Germany as advisor to Gen. Lu-
cius Clay, will arrive in New York
Thursday according to word re-
ceived by the University.
Prof. Pollock is expected to re-
sume teaching after spring vaca-
tion.

preme Court is completed.
The M.E.A. Board of Directors,
he reported, is supporting two ad-
ditional constitutional amend-
ments proposing more money foi'
schools for consideration of the
votes at the 1948 general election.
Constitutional Proposals
One would sectire increases in
school millage above the alloca-
tions made by the County tax al-
location board by a majority vote
of the electors, a second proposal
would raise the period over which
millage increases could be voted
from five to 15 years.
Phillips proposed a 19-point pro-
gram of educational standards in
the state, including improved
teacher training programs, elimi-
nations of limited teachers' cer-
tificates, a maximum work week of
40 hours for a minimum school
year of 10 months, a beginning
salary of $2,400 for teachers, bet-
ter school buildings, a minimum
education of 12 grades for every
child, and larger school adminis-
tration units.
Miss Mary Ellen Lewis, dean of
girls at Ann Arbor high schools,
was elected president of the asso-
ciation succeeding Lee Durham,
of Birmingham, assistant director
of adult education in the Detroit
Public Schools.
