BUSBOYS' ACTIONS See Page 4 W L 4Jt Latest Deadline in the State 4 ii OCCASIONAL; SHOWERS VOL. LXIII, No. 143 ANN ARBOR, MICHIGAN, THURSDAY, APRIL 30, 1953 SIX PAGES Joint Boards Form Policy Committee Activities Center To Be Studied By GENE HARTWIG Meeting in joint session for the first time in the history of either group, the Union Board of Direc- tors and the League Board of Gov- ernors last night voted to create a joint student-faculty study group of both boards to study and make policy recommendations on the student activity facilities problem. Set up by unanimous vote of the two groups, the sub-committee will consist of three student represen- tatives from each of the boards, two alumni representatives from each and one faculty member from each, making a total membership of 12. In addition the business man- agers of both the Union and the League will serve in an advisory capacity on the committee. LEAGUE representatives on the committee include Sue Riggs, '54, League president, Ann Plumton, '54, Mrs. Herbert F. Taggart and Mrs. O. E. Boehnke of the alumnae and Prof. Claribel Baird of the speech department. One student member has yet to be appointed. Committee members repre- senting the Union will be Jay Strickler, '54, Union president, Phil Flarsheim, '54, Union sec- retary, Prof. William Palmer of the economics department, Jo- seph C. Hooper, Ann Arbor at- torney, and T. Hawley Tapping, alumni secretary for the Union alumni. The 'proposal for the creation of the sub-committee was embodied in the report of the joint meeting of the subcommittees of the Union and League which met Monday. *- * * AS CONTAINED in the report, the proposal called for only two * student members. However, a mo- tion before the joint session in- creased the number of student rep- resentation to three from each or- ganziation. Chairman of the sub-com- mittee will be chosen by the group when it meets Tuesday. The report cited a basic agree- ment as to the need for additional student activities facilities. It also recorded opposition to the meth- od of a general poll of the student Judges Announce Case Club Victors * * * « * * SHOWN above is the panel of four judges which yesterday declared Law School juniors Donn B. Miller and Theodore J. St. An- toine victors in the final round of the Law School's Henry M. Campbell Case Club competition. Left to right are Dean E. Blythe Stason of the Law School, Justice William L. Hart of the Ohio Su- preme Court, Justice George E. Bushnell of the Michigan Supreme Court and Harrison Tweed, presi- dent of the American Law Insti- tute, who heard the oral argu- ments in an imaginary case in- volving anti-trust violations yes- terday. Runners-up in yesterday's argu- ments were the team of David W. Belin and Hugh G. Harness. Both teams had survived three rounds of eliminations from a group of the 16 best Case Club participants to reach the finals. Debate Freezes SL Action On, Specific Driving Rules, By ARLENE BELL Student Legislature failed to come to agreement on a specific driving ban proposal last night despite a two-and-a-half hour wrangle involving amendments, substitutions and parliamentary disputes. Most of the debate centered about the question of whether to submit a driving ban proposal which the students favor unreservedlyj but which has little chance of administration approval, or a proposalj less solidly backed by the students but more likely to be put into effect. The judges announced their de- cision at a banquet in the League last night. Tweed related some ob- servations on general law prac- tice gained in 43 years experience during the evening program. Miller and St. Antoine will re- ceive $100 each. Belin and Harness{ will each be awarded $50. Announcement of Miller's ap- pointment as presiding judge of the Case Clubs was also made yes- terday. TagDa Students will have an oppor- tunity to contribute towards sending underprivileged boys to the University's Fresh Air Camp at Patterson Lake tomorrow and Saturday as the annual Tag Day drive gets under way. Donation posts will be set up at strategic points in the city from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. tomor- row, and from 8 a.m. to noonI Saturday to raise funds for the camp's operation. The fundamental purpose of the Camp is to provide camp- ing experience for boys who because of financial limitations or behavior problems would not otherwise have the opportunity. House OK's State Levy On Income Tax Bill Passes By Large Vote LANSING-)-The House yes- terday passed both the Cloon Bill to tax business ea-nings and per- sonal income and the Nill Bill to tax corporation profits. The Cloon Bill passed 76-12 and the corporation profits tax 70-15 all negative votes were cast by Republicans who opposed the measures, ATTACHED as a substitute to a House measure levying a straight income tax the bill must go through the regular Senate com- mittee study. But the corporation profits tax was inserted into a measure already passed by the Senate under the sponsorship of George N. Higgins (R-Ferndale), chair- man of the Senate Taxation Committee. The House strategy is to give the Senate a club through the corporation profits tax to hold over Higgins' head if he refused to cooperate on the Cloon Bill. SENATE leaders were quick to pick up the club the House hadj handed them to use against Hig- gins. They said, informally, that the corporation profits tax would be sent to a House-Sen- ate conference committee and held there until they see what Higgins' Senate Taxation Com- mittee does to the Cloon Bill. They hinted the conference committee would be carefully picked to obey the Senate major- ity and not Higgins. S * * AND THE Senate drove Higgins to the wall on his own pet pack- age of $20,000,000 in so-called "nuisance" taxes. Senator Joseph P. Cloon (R- Wakefield), long angry becauset Higgins bottled up his incomeI tax bill in the taxation commit- tee, opened a steady drum-fire on the package bills: increases1 in the corporation franchise tax, the liquor tax and the horse race tax. Higgins was forced to retreat, three times. He was forced to cut the tie he had attached between all three bills in an attempt to declare that none of them shall. be effective unless all are passed and not vetoed.c And his lieutenant, Senatort Carlton H. Morris (R-Kalamazoo)t had to admit that Cloon was right in saying the liquor tax increase would produce $16,000,000 instead of the $7,000,000 Higgins had promised. Morris moved to cut the increase from five to four per cent, saying that would produce $8,- 900,000. UNESCO To Give Panel Discussion In Any Asiatic Nation Might Exert Influence More Prisoners En Route Home By The Associated Press The Allies rejected any Asiatic nation as a neutral to supervise Communist prisoners of war who do not want to return to Red rule. Lt. Gen. William K. Harrison Jr. said nobAsiatic nation would be acceptable because all Asian countries "are located very close to countries dominated by Com- munists and might therefore be subjected to Communist military, -economicor political influence."

Objecting to the fine imposed by the Inter-House Council ju- diciary last Friday, Perry will make his appeal to the Joint Ju- diciary through the office of the KEITH BEERS, Grad., told leg- islators that according to the stu- dent referendum inlast fall's elec- tions and comments received fromr other colleges in a survey conduct- ed by SL, student opinion here and elsewhere was overwhelmingly in favor of no driving regulations. However, he expressed the view that such a proposal would meet with administration disap- proval at present and instead suggested SL adopt a modified' plan calling for driving restric- tions on freshmen and sopho- mores only. Although no vote was taken, general sentiment during the dis- cussion seemed to indicate that SL favored no driving ban, restric- tions on freshmen, and curtail- ment of sophomore and freshmen driving, in that order. Chairmen of SL committees for the next semester were also announced last night. Ned Simon, '55, will head the Campus Action Committee; Ruth, Rossner, '55, the Culture and Education Commit- tee; and Steve Jelin, '55, Public Relations Committee.

James C. Hagerty, press secre- tary, made clear in response to newsmen's questions that the President would disclose the ad- ministration's long-awaited de- fense spending laws. Eisenhower told his news con- ference last week he is confident that defense spending can be cut, but he declined to estimate how' much might be trimmed off the 46 billion dollar defense budget; recommended by former President Truman.
