Regents OK SAB Budget, rDriver Study By JIM DYGERT A $1,750,000 budget for con- struction of the Student Activities Building and the awarding of con- tracts to low bidders were approved by the- Board of Regents at its November meeting yesterday. The Regents also approved a re- quest for $140,000 from the 1956 session of the State Legislature to ' finance a comprehensive study of driver behavior and highway safety by the Transportation In- stitute. Director of University Relations Arthur L. Brandon announced to the Regents that Nov. 28 is to be University of Michigan Day in Detroit. The low bidder for the general contract for the Student Activ- ities Building was George W. Lathrop & Sons of Toledo, O. The bid was $1,148,000, less than the University's estimate of $1,200,000 for the job. The Transportation Institute program has been designed to meet a pressing need in traffic and highway safety. Prof.' John Kohl, director of the Institute, says the University is especially equipped to help solve the traffic problem in Michigan. "The leadership which the Uni- versity has displayed in the field of transportation should be made See DRIVING, Page 6 OSA Requires Non U' Living Applications Students now living outside the * residence halls who would like dormitory rooms in the coming semester should make application now in the Office of Student Af- fairs. Assistant Dean of Men Karl'D. Streiff said many special students were turned away from the resi- dence halls in the fall and are now living in housing "not quite up to standard." - "Since there will be space avail- able - in the residence halls this spring, we want to place all those students living in other housing units who would prefer residence hall accomodations." While Streiff does not expect the housing situation to be as tight as it was at the beginning of this fall semester, he recommend- ed that all undergraduate students currently living in substandard POSTPONES COMMENT: Kefauver Leaves Stand Open Fr Invetgto By LEWIS HAMBURGER and PETER ECKSTEIN Special To The Daily CHICAGO-Senator Estes Kefauver (D-Tenn.), taking time out from monopoly and crime investigations, left his position in the presidential nomination race open for investigation, as he postponed defnite comment until at least December 16. The Tennessee senator, who was boosted into the national lime- light as a result of his wide-spread crime investigations, appeared sharp-witted and poised before the nation's top political reporters. He said he woul dannounce no stand until he completed previous hearing and report-filing commitments and paused to confer with leading Democratic supporters and 'U' To Study Voting Habits A study of voting behavior will be conducted by the University during next year's presidential elections.. The study, to be conducted by the Survey Research Center under the direction of Prof. Angus Campbell, is made possible by a $110,000 grant from The Rocke- feller Foundation. The grant was accepted by the Regents at their monthly meeting yesterday. A fellowship named for former federal Budget Bureau Director Joseph M. Dodge will be establish- ed in the School of Business Ad- ministration by a $2,000 grant from The Detroit Bank. Other gifts accepted totaled $147,007. Of this amount, $100,687 came from the estate of the late' Dr. Walter R. Parker of Detroit and was designed for a fellowship in the medical school's ophthalmo- logy department and contributions to an art collection fund in mem- ory of Dr. Parker's wife. Also accepted were gifts of $11,500 from the National Science.

The Michigan Marching Band will make its contribution to Pasa- dena fever at half-time with a his- torical salute to another suburb of Los Angeles-Hollywood. The 120-piece all-brass Ohio State University Marching Band will join forces with the Michigan marchers for the pre-game show,, but the Ohio Band's half-time theme will be "A Saturday Ddte foew ande Myi Gal1" "just plain good Democrats" on his chances for the nomination. Hints at Campaign He hinted at his present atti- tude, saying "if I become a candi- date I will carry on a campaign not of tearing down, but of en- deavoring to present a program for the future. "I can think of no nobler ambi- tion than running for President," he added sincerely, and then quipped, "nor anything more fun." He commented about other candi- dates with an air of calm know- ingness, and stated he would have to consult other leaders as to his chances before he decided to toss his hat into the proverbial politi- cal ring. Neutrality Violated In his most controversial state- ment Sen. Kefauver charged the Democratic National Committee with violating neutrality toward the candidates by sending out telegrams signed by Adlai Steven- son. "I'm not complaining," the sena- tor said. "I just don't think it's proper. Put that together if you can," he challenged the reporters. See KEFAUVER, Page 6 The sloppy conditions should only0 make more equal what is already an even game. If the Wolverines defeat Ohio, they take the Big Ten crown, and march on to Pasadena. If Ohio State downs Michigan, the Buck- eyes win the title, the Wolverines drop to third, and the Spartans of Michigan State get the Rose Bowl nod. A tie would do the same. Ohio State, unbeaten in Con- ference play is, of course, headed by its All-America halfback How- ard "Hopalong" Cassady, ranked as the greatest back in collegiate football. Highways for miles around are jammed to capacity-as thousands more converge on what is expected to be one of the most thrilling games of modern timeh. Meanwhile, in Ann Arbor yes- terday afternoon, Michigan's Wol- verines held their final drill of the regular season. It was by far the most heated and spirited football drill this reporter has ever wit- nessed. The enthusiasm of the Michigan squad is unbelievable. They are keye dto a super-pitch. They want this one more than any game they have ever played. Record The largest crowd ever to at- tend a football game on a col- lege campus will see today's Michigan - Ohio State clash. A total of 97,369 tickets have been sold for the game, Direc- tor of University Relations Ar- thur L. Brandon announced at the Regents meeting yesterday. Meanwhile, a rugged band of Buckeyes spent the evening in Dearborn, Mich., a team which be- sides Cassady boasts one of the most fearsome lines in college football, headed by All-American nominees Frank Machinsky, and Jim Parker. 'M' Defeated Ohio Last The Buckeyes, defending Big Ten, national, and Rose Bowl champions, have not lost a Big Ten game in almost two full sea- sons. The last time-a Conference See 13 SENIOR, Page 3 SGC Plans To Absorb SBX Deficit Student Government Council, yesterday passed a substitute mo- tion by Bill Diamond, '56E, provid- ing for SGC absorbtion of a de- ficit remaining in the Student Book Exchange, account at the conclusion of the fall, 1955 opera- tion. Rationale behind this motion, according to Diamond, is that the deficit should be covered by the end of this year. He said the Exchange is sup- posed to run on a non-profit basis and it will not make enough profit in February operations to pay back this amount. Debt Incurred by SL tion of the Council that the debt was incurred primarily while the Exchange was under the operation of Student Legislature and was included when SGC accepted the project. SL funds should be used for this, but they are not avail- able to the Council for a year and a half, Diamond added. Therefore, the deficit should be paid by the Council. Donna Netzer, '56 said that this deficit was not taken int consid- eration when the dispersal of SL funds was under consideration. Noninations for positions on the Executive Committee of the Coun- cil thus far include: president: Hank Berliner, '56; vice president: Dick Wood, '56 and Bill Adams, '57; Treasurer: Adams; and Ad- ministrative Wing Coordinator: Tom Sawyer, '57. Elections Tuesday Elections will be held at the SGC meeting Tuesday and names may be submitted through that time. World News Roundup By The Associated Press No Defeat ... WASHINGTON - President Dwight D. Eisenhower said last night that despite the Geneva con- ference deadlock "this country will never admit defeat" in its quest for enduring world peace. * * * Release French.. PARIS - The French Cabinet decided yesterday to release about 57,000 reservists called back to military service because of heavy demands for troops in North Af- rica. A Cabinet spokesman said the reservists should be home by the end of the year. Changeover? ... NEW YORK-Gov. Averell Har- riman said yesterday that "who- ever the next Democratic candi- date will be, he will be the next president of the United States." He insisted that he himself is not a candidate, although he is expected to be the "favorite son" of the big New York delegation to the Democratic natioilal conven- tion next year. * * * Berlin Threats.. . BERLIN-Twin threats against blockade-conscious West , Berlin were posted yesterday by Com- munist East Germany. First, the Communists ordered a crackdown on Western motor- ists who drive "carelessly" on the highways leading through Com- munist territory to the isolated city. Second, West Berlin officials said the Communists have closed down the main ship canal leading to West Germany and the Ruhr area. * * * Security Revision... WASHINGTON - The Defense Department yesterday revised its military and personnel security rules and Sen. T. C. Hennings (D-Mo.) called it a step toward restoring "constitutional rights." Under the new regulations, the armed services will investigate for possible security risks before put- ting people in uniform, instead or afterward as now. All of the survivors, who escaped when the plane broke apart, and before a gasoline explosion tore it to pieces, were injured, some only slightly. Nineteen soldiers were released from the hospitals within 12 hours. A woman and her three children escaped with bruises, but her hus- band was killed. Twenty-six soldiers also were identified as dead. All 'Injured' Every person aboard the plane was injured to some degree, al- thoughsome, only slightly. The copilot, Fred Hall of Miami, said from his hospital bed 12 hours after the crash that he did not believe engine trouble could have caused the crash. He said there was trouble in one engine but that the remaining three are "enough to get that type of plane up without too much trouble." He also said it was not overloaded. Israel Agrees With UN Plan JERUSALEM, Israeli Sector () -Israel announced yesterday ac- ceptance of the United Nations plan to end the conflict between Israelis and Egyptians over the Nizana-El Auja zone. Egypt's final response is still awaited. Joseph Tekoah, the Foreign Ministry's director of armistice af- fairs, said Maj. Gen. E. L. M. Burns, Canadian chief of the UN truce organization, was advised of Israel's position at a meeting in Jerusalem. Burns and UN Secretary Gen- eral Dag Hammarskjold drew up the plan' in New York after an outbreak of bloody fighting in the frontier area, which was supposed to have been demilitarized. Tekoah said Burns was told Is- rael is accepting the Ulf plan in principle "and is ready to pro- ceed with immediate arrangements for its implementation on the basis of these proposals." ame Engine SEATTLE (M)-Witnesses and a crew member said yesterday a chartered airliner was having engine trouble before its crashed and killed 27 of the 74 persons abroad on a midnight takeoff here. However, the injured crew member, copilot Fred Hall of Miami, Fla., said he was sure the trouble in one of the big plane's four engines would not have caused the disaster; that the DC4 was capable of climbing on three. The plane was on a special flight to take 66 soldiers from the Far East toward their homes in the Midwest and East. Crashed Between Houses An Army spokesman said the men had arranged for their own- trips on a charter basis. The plane crashed between houses in a resi- dential area. y Policemen To Receive More Money- By VERNON NAHRGANG City council yesterday passed a resolution to compensate police of- ficers for additional hours worked while the men are one 12-hour shifts. Meeting in special session yes- terday afternoon, the council de cided that, beginning Nov. 20, of- ficers on 12-hour work days will receive additional pay for hours worked over and above the present 44-hour work week. The budget committee . also recommended that as soon as the number of men in the police de- partment is back to normal, "the police department be placed on a 40-hour work week," at the same salaries Its employes now receive. Seven Employees Excluded Beginning Monday, all men go on 60-hour work weeks. This excludes seven employes concerned with parking and park- ing meter details and the two policewomen. However, they will be asked to work Monday nights throughout the Christmas season. Longer working hours were necessitated by the six men who have already left the department and five more who will leave within ten days. Captain Roland Gainsley, of the uniformed and plain clothes forces, spoke for Chief Casper M. Enke- mann. "Every man in the department is interested in getting back on the eight hour shift," he said, explaining that ten or twelve men would have to be added to the de- partment before this could be done. Cannot 'Advocate Raise' Council also discussed whether or not Chief Enkemann should also receive the extra pay for addi- tional hours worked. Council President A. D. Moore left the chair to speak. "I'm sorry to say I cannot advocate the raise for him. It is part of his job in the department to put in over- time." Capt. Gainsley countered that' Chief Enkemann must be included in the pay rates schedule along with the rest of the officers be- cause of the additional work in- volved. Ask Federal Education Aid WASHINGTON (P)-Federal aid for education was urged upon a congressional committee yesterday as a major way to aid low income families.

According to Student Government Council officials, other campus leaders, and over six thousand students it was a success despite the snow and cold. The rally was not supposed to form at the-Union until 8:15 p.m. but as early as 8 o'clock expectant students had filled the Union steps, overflowed onto State Street -and crowded sidewalks as far as the Administration Building. Fire-crackers, small house bands, fire sirens, and spontaneous cheers and songs put the "beat Ohio State" spirit into the crowd even, before the University Marching Band appeared to lead the rally to Ferry Field. By the time the Band reached Ferry Field where the entertain- ment was staged, the ralliers, packed tightly on the sidewalks and street, stretched all the way back to the intersection of Packard and .............:....
