V 'E " SGC Considers .n .0.i ,o Cancellation Ban on Oppenheimer Cited at Washington U SEATTLE (R) - The University of Washington announced yester- day it has been forced to cancel an important scientific conference April 7-8 because of its ban against Dr. J. Robert Oppenheimer. The University said seven of eight Eastern scientists who were to have led the conference signed a round-robin letter refusing to appear because of the Oppenheim- er ban. Cited 'Governmental Relationship', Dr. Henry Schmitz, university president, recently barred Oppen- heimer's appearance as a guest lecturer in the spring because of what he termed the atomic physi- cist's "governmental relationship." Oppenheimer was denied access last year to atomic secrets on se- curity grounds. The "conference, listed as a "Symposium on the Molecular Ba- sis of Enzyme Action," had been expected to draw more than 200 scientists from all parts of, the country, said Dr. Hans Neurath, head of the university Medical School's Department of Biochem- istry. Scientists Listed By DAVE BAAD First steps were taken last night toward administrative organi- zation of Student Government Council. After presentation by Hank Berliner, '56, SC voted to send his proposed new admxinistrative structure to a special committee.

They also objected to the gov- ernment's feeling that the average citizen was inert and therefore had to be pushed to get a job done," asserted Prof. Inkeles. Constant Sacrifice Disapproval of constant sacri- fice necessary to reap few large material rewards were frowned upon by the people, Prof. Inkeles said. He added that many of the peo- ple opposed the frightful toll of responsibility that they were sub- jected to. Manufacturers, who were sub- ject to arrest or "dockment" of pay, and doctors, responsible for the issuing of only necessary sick leaves to workers, were examples cited by Prof. Inkeles of people affected by this policy. Importance of the welfare state to those former citizens and their hostility to capitalism were some of the regime's strong points, mentioned by Prof. Inkeles. Bill Moved To Judiciary, Committee 'No Implications' Seen by Hatcher By MURRY FRYMER Almost twice as many Univer- sity students oppose the proposed Michigan State College-to Univer- sity name change as favor it it was found yesterday, but a large segment of the campus, popula- tion just "doesn't care." A Daily random sample of stu- dent opinion questioning 273 cam- pus students revealed that 51 per cent (139) oppose the change, 26, per cent '(71) favor it, and 23 per cent (63) prefer to remain neu- tral. Many of those opposing said, however, that it was the similarity of names, not the title "Univer- sity" to which they objected. Hope Dimmed in Senate In Lansing, meanwhile, a Uni- versity attempt to defeat the Sen- ate bill which would establish Michigan State University looked considerably dimmer yesterday, By amajority of two, the Sen- ate decided to send the MSU bill to the Judiciary Committee, in- stead of the Education Commit- tee where it would normally'go. The bill's backers, fearing that the Education committee headed by Sen. Don Vander Werp (R-Frm- mont) would kill it, were highly optimistic about the switch. Headed by Sen. Harry F. Hittle (R-East Lansing), five of the seven Judiciary members were reported ready to report the bill out. Will Give 'U' Hearing Hittle said the committee could not consider the measure until next week. "Of course, we will give the Uni- versity of Michigan people a hear- ing if they ask for one," he said, "We always grant requests for hearings." President Harlan H. Hatcher said yesterday he saw "no impli- cations" in the Senate move. One of the University protests concern- ing House Education committee action on the bill was that it al- lowed no hearing before report- ing it to the floor.. 'U' Student Opinions Opinions voiced by students here in The Daily poll were similar to those established by others fav- oring and opposing the name change. Those favoring pointed to MSC'>s qualifications for University stat- us, while many of those opposed said that there would be too much resulting confusion, Those who didn't care called the matter "ridiculous," "trifling" or blamed the Regents "for making fools of themselves." In favor, Shirley Glassner, '58, said that "people home in New Jersey call it Michigan State and don't even know it's not a univer- sity." MSC Doesn't Fit Bill On the other side, one student said "the connotation of the word x " "G in Y l I' S 1 x' t, Y Salk Vaccine Plans have been set up to vac- cinate all first and second grade school children in Washtenaw County with Salk vaccine, if it is nrnved effectivP Cnit T-ast nve men snouda come from -the townships most effected by the or- dinance and at least one should have a good knowledge of aero- nautics."
