Plan

~Pan Includes
Regional and
National TV
By DAVE LIVINGSTON
Daily Sports Editor
The powerful Western Confer-
ence ended weeks of conjecture
and apparently paved the way to-
ward nation-wide acceptance o:
the NCAA football television plar
as it, gave its full approval to the
proposed program last night.
At a meeting of faculty repre-
sentatives and athletic directors ir
Chicago. the Big Ten voted with
surprisingly little dissention tc
cast its collective vote for the
NCAA television program an-
nounced yesterday.
The compromise plan, which
provides for both national and re-
gional telecasting of college foot-
ball, must be balloted on by all of
the 425 meiber schools before
midnight March 21. A two-thirds
affirmative vote is required for ac-
ceptance.
Approval Unexpected
The Big Ten's immediate ap-
proval of the plan was unexpect-
ed in view of the Conference's ex-
pressed desire to conduct a com-
prehensive regional program of
telecasting.
The proposed program calls for
eight national "games of the
week" and five regional dates for
telecasting within each of the
seven NCAA districts.
The regional concession is aim-
ed at appeasing the Big Ten and
Pacific Coast Conference which
have desired added television
rights within their individual con-
ferences.
One of Each
Under the new plan a school
may appear on one national and
one regional date, or two regional

Following a year's investigation
of theyresidence hall system, the
Operation Inquiry committee has:
released its final report.
Consisting of four faculty mem-
bers and five students, the group
has made many recommendations.
In the field of plant and facili-
ties, the report states "the con-
version of rooms~ to 'permanent
triples' is highly undesirable and
should be undertaken only as a
last resort to solve the housing
problem.
"Student leaders in the resi-
dence halls should be consulted in
all stages of planning as to the de-}

goals, the type of design found in
East and West Quadrangles is pre-
ferred over the South Quadrangle
set-up.
Furthermore, the committee has
urged the Inter-House Council to
conduct a study of quadrangle res-

significant differences due to sizes
of rooms occupied by students.

Ballot boxes will be located at 16 different points

choice of candidates for 40 positions on SGC, the Union

of the foreign students on campus rate their housing as "excellent",

The questionnaire is part of a survey on student housing which

The fact that an investigation of studefit housing was needed be-
