The motion to the presidents last night, presented by Joe Whiteman, '55, president of Beta Theta Pi, was qualified . . . "provided that the health department is willing to accommodate such a program; that such a program would be en- tirely voluntary and completely non-injurious; and that the pro- gram can be set up on a decen- tralized basis to facilitate the tests. Presidents OK The program passed by a large majority. John Baity, '54, Interfraternity Council President, who has been instrumental in coordinating the arrangement with the health de- partment, explained the motion to the Presidents before discussion began.

State IFC to Visit C&E Motion To Propose Year's. Pay Committee Cites Moral Obligation By MURRY FRYMER H. Chandler Davis, former Uni- versity mathematics instructor who was dismissed from the fac- ulty in August will be at the Stu- dent Legislature meeting tonight to discuss the question of proposed severance pay - for himself and Prof. Mark Nickerson, who has also been dismissed. SL will at the time consider a, Culture and Education Commit- tee motion stating that "Prof. Nickerson and Mr. Davis should receive a year's compensation from the date bf notification of dis- missal." Davis said that he had been asked to answer questions on sev- erance pay only. He added that he was not prepared to discuss the dismissal in general. Under Judication At the present time, Davis' legal case is under judication, which is another reason for the necessity to restrict the discussion to con- tract, tenure, appointment, and severance pay. The SL motion, which will be made by Paul Dormont, '55, and Hank Berliner, '56, states that the "University has a moral obliga- tion to uphold the welfare of its faculty.

Pointing to the post-armistice conference at Panmunjom with the Reds, which failed to come to any agreement Gen. Clark said, "Po- litical Conferences solve nothing." The Communist understands only "a big stick," he said, "and we have not confronted him with suf- ficient force in the last few years." Dean t o Talk On Atom Law Today, Thursday and Friday, Dean E. Blythe Stason of the law school will attend a conference on atomic energy sponsored by the National Industrial Conference Board. Held in New York City, this is the third annual conference on atomic energy law. Dean Stason has been asked to comment at some length on deci- sions reached at the talks and to summarize the discussions at the conclusion of a round table panel which he will conduct. Today, Dean Stason will act as chairman of a round table session entitled "Significance of the Pa- tent and Licensing Amendments to the Atomic Energy Act." The National Industrial Confer- ence Board is a New York organi- zation which conducts conferences of interest to industry. According to Mrs. Doris Mc- Laughlin, secretary to the Secre- tary of the, law school, "It is an organization of industries with an educational rather than a propa- gandist function-a clearing house for new ideas." Approximately 3,000 industrial- ists, engineers and lawyers will at- tend the conference. Dean Stason is the only college professor on the panel. A birthday party in honor of President Dwight D. Eisenhower,1 sponsored by the Young Republi- cans, will begin at 8 p.m. tonightl in the Union ballroom.t The President will be 64 yearsI old tomorrow. Sen. Charles Potter, who willj discuss "The Importance of Elect- ing a Republican Congress," will1 be among the guests. Others will include gubernatorial aspirant Don-Y ald S.
