British crowds greeted them with thin cheers, some boos and spoofing curiosity. "Welcome Grace Kelly and Prince Rainier" said a placard hoisted by a group of youth. That got a big hand. Officially, things were diplomatically correct. Prime Minister Anthony Eden and Foreign Secretary Selwyn Lloyd dined with Bulganin and Khrushchev yesterday at Claridges, the ~luxury fhotel where the Russians GC Starts Third Term; Plans Laid 'Must Improve,' Declares Adams By DICK SNYDER "Student Government Council is now faced with a 'produce, improve yourself' command and can no longer rely on the 'we're just get- ting started' crutch," Council Pres- ident Bill Adams, '57 BAd, warned at last night's SGC meeting. Presenting his prospectus at the initial meeting of the third SGC term, Adams said, "Coordination and follow-through must be a part of everything we do. Adams commented on the Uni- versity-wide Counseling Study Committee_ which held its first meeting Tuesday and 'reminded the Council that it should also take a more active interest in "the whole academic sphere" dur- ing the coming term. "Phrases like 'honor system' and 'academic freedom' should become actions," he advised. He also sug- gested studies and recommenda- tions in such areas as the lecture ban, curriculum and increasing en- rollment. Lecture Committee Later In the meeting during member's time, Daily Managing Editor Dave Baad, '56, announced his intention to move next week that SGC form-a student-faculty- administration committee to look into the area covered by the Lec- ture Committee, which has the power to ban speakers from ap- pearing on campus. Baad noted, "It is time for a serious examination of this whole area. Many individuals at the Uni- versity have recently expressed concern in favor of alternations in the present lecture-ban policy." The newly-elected President also called for a program which would enable "adequate utilization of the University's important foreign stu- aent segment." "In 'short," .Adams concluded, "SGC may and should discuss any- thing if it concerns students, their well-being, their rights and their responsibilities." New Appointments Vice-President Janet Neary, '58, announced appointments to the chairmanships of the Council's seven major committees. Lewis Engman, '57, will chair the Campus Affairs. Committee, with Ron Shorr, '58, as his associate. The Educational and Social Wel- fare Committee will be headed by , Tom Sawyer, '58. Committee as- sociate is Jim Dygert, '56. Public Relations will be chaired by John Wrona, '57, National and International by Anne Woodard, '57, Student Representation by Don Good, '57E, and Coordinating and Counseling by Rod Comstock, '56E. The Finance Committee will be headed by Treasurer Joe Collins, '58, and will consist of Miss Neary, Engman, Comstock and an ex-of- ficio member who has not yet been announced. Collins will also be assisted in his duties through a newly-created Comptroller position. Kendall Kirkbride, '58, was approved as Comptroller for the coming term. Senior Cass Petitions Due Petitioning for Senior Class Of- fices ends tomorrow. Candidates must have petitions delivered to Mrs. Callahan, 1020 Administration Building, by 5 p.m. have taken royal suites on the first floor. Begin Talks There they beganminformal talks on East-West issues. Official con- ferences start today on such prob- lems as German reunification, dis- armament and the middle east. Prime Minister Eden, a diplo- mat from way back, was correct and elegant' as he met Bulganin, the goateed Soviet premier; and roly-poly Khrushchev, the Com- munist party boss, at London's smoke-blackened Victoria station. He voiced a desire for serious talks with the Russians on inter- national problems. Bulganin, beaming broadly, re- plied through an interpreter. He extended greetings and. declared "the Soviet government seeks to have friendly relations with Brit- ain as well as the United States, France and other countries." Take London Tour Later, Bulganin and Khrushchev took the "mile run" tour around London's traditional sights. Police motorcycle outriders pre- ceded them. Their every move took place inside a police security net described as the greatest in British peacetime history. The police arrested four persons, in- cluding a French journalist, on minor charges. During their 10-day visit, the two Russians, among other things, will see British atomic installa- tions. They also will take tea with Queen Elizabeth II at Windsor Castle. Eden invited the Russian lead- ers to Britain at the time of the Geneva summit conference last July. The British crowd reaction to their arrival was a high-spirited carnival atmosphere at some places, but the genefal attitude seems to be one of curiosity with the sporting arena razzberry as an undertone. Jeering mingled with cheering at Victoria Station. Helped: Nixon NEW YORK (I')--Vice-President Richard Nixon, who seldom has had a good word for the Demo- crats, yesterday credited them with helping achieve "America's .great prosperity." He still gave Republicans the chief credit, adding, "I think I can state that the philosophy of government in Washington for the last three years has been the most important single factor in producing the good times we en- joy today."

Classes all day long will be susceptibleto the Michiclef's powers, but those in which the Michiclef finds the strongest Michigras spirit will be dis- ,missed. Stevenson Hits News Suppression PITTSBURGH(O'-Adai Ste- venson accused the Eisenhower administration yesterday of what he called "needless suppression of public information." "And this manipulation,'' Stev- enson said, "is revealed as having been in an attempt to cover up some administration blunder or to put a good face on a bad situation for partisan political advantage." "The reason for this is not just the concern of the present admin- istration about the security of the country, but concern about the security of the political party now in office," the Democratic presi- dential candidate said. Stevenson, lobking fit and tan after a four-day rest in Southern Pines, N.C., made the statement in a luncheon address before a large gathering of newsmen and guests at the Pittsburgh Press Club, the first of several speaking engagements in Pennsylvania. Later, at a question-and-answer session, the former Illinois gover- nor said he did not hold President Eisenhower personally responsible except "he-Eisenhower-as chief executive is responsible for his subordinates." "Very early in this administra- tion, a high official, C. D. Jackson, said, 'We're going to merchandise the living hell out of the Eisen- hower administration,"' Steven- son said in his speech. - M Cole Praised For Conduct BIRMINGHAM, Ala. (P) - A Southern judge yesterday imposed maximum jail sentences on four White Citizens Council members arrested following the attack on Negro singer Nat "King'" Cole. The judge said they could have caused "untold tragedy."' Recorders Court Judge Ralph E. Parker commended Cole for his conduct "at the scene of the dis- turbance and since then." He said the Alabama-born Negro had re- 'spected Southern traditions in a way to "earn respect of his white friends." Three Anniston,;Ala., men were convicted of conspiracy to commit assault and battery and related charges, and were sentenced to 180 days in jail and fined $100 each plus court costs. They are Mike Fox, 36; E. L. Vinson, 25; and Orliss Wade Clevenger, 18. They were accused of rushing Cole as he sang at a concert in the Municipal Auditorium April 10. _7 '?7 /l- ---- Diamondmen Whip Irish In 5-2 Win Big First Inning Stops Notre Dame By JIM BAAD A flurry of first inning hits producing three runs plus excellent pitching sparked Michigan to a 5-2 victory over Notre Dame in yester- day's 35 degree weather at Ferry Field. The few fans who did sit through the cold saw one of Michigan's best games as far as pitching goes. Hurlers Bill Thurston and Don Poloskey, who split up the game, had the Notre Dame hitters under control throughout the contest. The Irish got only five scattered hits and two unearned runs. Excellent Control ' Thurston, who worked the first five innings and received credit for the win, showed excellent control and deception. He walked one man and only once was he hit hard, a double over the left field- er's head in the second inning. Although he struck no one out, he was almost always ahead of every batter, making them wary at the plate. Poloskey, pitching the last four frames, had an excellent sharp- breaking curve which was contin- ually finding the. corners of the plate. After allowing two hits at the start of his stint, Poloskey bore down for the remainder 7f the game and the Irish got no more. Michigan jumped off to an early lead in the first inning, and due to sharp defense and the fine mound work, were never caught.' Moby Benedict led off the inning with a walk. Bruce Fox then slam- med a double down the left field line, sending Benedict to third. Freak Triple Howie Tommelein continued the hitting with a freak triple which bounded over the left fielder's head and rolled to the fence in deep left center field. This drove in two runs. After Ken Tippery and Steve Boros had popped out, Notre Dame'd pitcher, Tom Bujnowski, walked Al Sigman on four straight pitches. Bob Sealby then proceed- ed to single to right driving in Tommelein and sending Sigman to second. Gene Snider grounded out to end theuinning and the scoring at three runs. , Notre Dame came back with a run in the second inning on an 'error by Fox and a long double. They scored again in the sixth in practically the same fashion. Bene- dict muffed a grounder off the bat of Bujnowski, and two successive singles sent the runner home.
