Outlining the functions of the
proposed Student Executive Com-

Its initial decision concerned

weeks ago.
THE GROUP yesterday favored
seven general areas of SEC juris-

Student High Court Jurisdiction,
Composition, Procedures Explained
(EDITOR'S NOTE: This is the first in a series of articles on the Joint
Judiciary Council.)
By JON SOBELOFF
Those that do, do and those that don't, don't.
What to do with those that do when they get caught?
That's the question answered by the Joint Judiciary Council. This1
series of articles will attempt to tell what some of the commonly
violated campus rules are, how the violators' cases are handled,.
and what is likely to happen to "those that do."

Board Takes Soviet Recognizes East
Policy Stand
On Club Bias German Sovereignty;
Senior Board passed three mo-
tions concerning their policy stand
on discrimination in reference to
student speakers at alumni gath-
erings yesterday at a meeting.

The situation arose recently
when, according to a letter writ-
ten by the Board to be sent to the
Michigan Alumnus for publication,
"one of the students chosen for a
speaking engagement was unable
to participate because the alumni
club was holding its meeting in a
private club which allows no mem-
biers of the Negro race to enter the
building as guests."

TO BEGIN WITH, just what is the Joint Judiciary Council
and how does it fit into the campus disciplinary setup?
The Joint- Judiciary Council, known by its friends as "judic."
is made up of five men and five women students who sit as a
"student high court" to hear disciplinary cases referred to them by

BERLIN-/P )The Soviet Union
announced yesterday it is recog-
nizing East Germany as a fully
sovereign state.
The move was immediately lab-
eled by the U. S. State Depart-
ment as a phony gesture.
* * ge u*
THE SOVIET announcement
said Russian troops would still be
stationed in the Soviet zone, a
precaution which would assure
continued tight control by the
Kremlin.
In Washington, the State De-
partment recalled that only nine
months ago the East Germans
staged widespread revolts, de-
manding free elections.
It said the "entire puppet re-
gime would collapse .under the
weight of hatred and hostility of
the populace" if Soviet troops were
withdrawn.
The Soviet move was seen by
observers here as another stage
of the long-waged fight by Mos-
cow to win Western recognition
of thes East German Communist
government which was instituted
without an election after the
Western Powers had set up a cen-
Sral West German government at
Bonn.

IF THE constitution referendum

the levy would bring in a maximum
of approximately $8,000 under

Probably, SL would collect this
fee at registration if the Univer-

ask questions on controversial
subjects, to join or support unpop-
ular causes even when they believe
in them, or to criticize our political
