I I SENATE TO VOTE.: Sen. Johnson Forecasts Mid-East Bill Approval WASHINGTON )-Senate approval of the modified Middle East resolution was forecast yesterday by Senator Lyndon Johnson (D-Tex), the majority leader. Johnson said he favored the legislation, which proclaims the readiness of the United States to fight Communist aggression in the Middle East if President Dwight D. Eisenhower deems it necessary. He predicted it would be passed by the Senate in substantially the same form it came out of the Foreign Relations and Armed Services UN Refuses Red Order Of Immediate Debate On Eisenhowe -Daily-Norm Jacobs CITY'S KEY-Governor Theodore Roosevelt McKeldin (right) received a key to the city from Ann Arbor mayor William E. Brown, Jr. (left) yesterday afternoon when the Maryland governor arrived at Willow Run Airport. Later, at a Lincoln Day dinner in the League, the dynamic speak- er urged more Republican support of President.-Dwight D. Eisenhower's policies - what he called "modern solutions for modern problems." Alternatives to Eisenhower policies, Gov. McKeldin sug- gested, are "some wildly radical schemes, some new and unheard-of system of government more fantastic even than Socialism and Communism" or "antiquated and outworn political ideas that voters rejected in five successive elections." Addressing approximately 600 GOP workers and lead- ers, he asked that the Republican party "continue to do what it has been doing at the behest of the most successful leader it has been blessed with in this century; but to do it with a hearty good- will, with a vigor, with an enthusiasm and pride that will convince the most skeptical Doubting Thomas that here is the party of today and tomorrow, the party that dares look the facts in the face." SGC FORUM: Plant Predicts Possibility Of AllOtAthletic Aid By MICHAEL KRAFT The Big Ten may imitate other conferences and permit all-out aid to athletes if the compromise "equalization" plan fails to pass, Prof. Marcus Plant, of the law school predicted last night. Speaking at the SGC-sponsored forum discussing "Financial Aid to Athletes," the University faculty representative to the Big Ten Athletic Conference described the plan as allowing a school to grant an athlete money equal to his "actual financial need .. ." the dif- ference between his school expenses and his ability to pay. The Big Ten faculty representatives approved the proposal at their Dec. 8th meeting, sent it to member schools for examination and ----will take final action Feb. 22. Galens Decide To Quit Spring Campus Drive By JAMES BOW Galens, honorary medical so- ciety, yesterday announced its de- cision "not to participate this year" in the spring Campus Chest drive. The decision, presented at a meeting of the Campus Chest Board, was in the form of a written statement signed by Robert Kretz- schmar, '57M, Galens' president. Robert Jewett, '58M, presented the Galens' decision to the Board and described the statement as representing the views of the "en- tire organization.". Withdraws Name Galens wishes to withdraw its name from use in Campus Chest publicity, Jewett said, and Cam- pus Chest is now "under no obli- gation" to give the alloted drive funds to Galens. Reasons for the withdrawal from Campus Chest were given as a "full calendar" for the Society and its members in the spring as well as time already spent collecting funds for hospital children in December. "When, the Society engages it- self in a project, it expends 100, per cent effort toward the success of that project, and at this time we would be unable to so." Fund Drives Galens is entirely in accordance with unification of fund drives if they are complete and include var- ious other local and national drives, the statement summarized. Harlan Givelber, '57, chairman of the Campus Chest Board, asked Jewett if the Galens' decision pre- eluded participation in Campus Chest in the future. "I think perhaps with re-sched- uling Galens may participate in the future," Jewett replied. Jewett also said if Galens did participate in Campus Chest next year it might consider scheduling its city drive to coincide with the campus drive. 'U' To Explain Quad Expulsions Still Backs Plan Prof. Plant said though he fav- ored no athletic aid, he backed the plan "because it's a compromise that will help stop the trend to- wards undue financial aid for athletes. Opposing the plan and any scholarships that do not aid stu- dents solely because they are stu- dent's, Prof. George Peek, of the political science department, said a "No-contact, No-offer" policy is the only feasible solution to ath- letic recruiting. Defends Aid Defending athletic bids, Dick Balzhaiser, Grad, said, "If an ath- lete is supposed to live up to his academic requirements, as he does at Michigan, and must solve his financial needs, he has an almost insurmountable problem." The for- mer fullback said a player must put in about four and one-half hours a day practicing., With a football player required to devote fifteen weeks to the sea- son and preliminary practice, he feels he should have some compen- sation for his time, Balzhaiser de- clared. He added that the University also benefits for aiding athletes since the intra-mural and ath- letic programs are supported by student receipts. Balzhaiser also cited sports as an aid for publicity and stimulation of alumni activ- ity. Ero llment Surpasses Fall Levels By ALLAN STILLWAGON Three University schools and colleges this semester increased their enrollment over record- breaking Fall levels, Edward G. Grosebeck, director of the- Office of Registration and Records an- nounced yesterday. The graduate school, the School of Business Administration, and the education school reported registrations in excess of both the totals for last January and Sep- tember. Grosebeck called the second jump "exceptional, and . . . con- trary to the usual pattern." Late registration this semester was markedly decreased, he added, I"primarily due to increased con- venience of registering at the gym. Winding up the task of issuing final enrollment totals, the regis- trations director reported this semester's classification period "a smooth and efficient operation." For the first time, any course in the University (with the stan- dardexception ofwthe law and medical schools) could be elected in Waterman gymnasium. Previ- ously, the engineering school clas- sification was held in a separate building, necessitating special tele- phone hook-ups between the two areas. 0 "We are very pleased with the speed of the operation," Grosebeck said. "Even the 147,000 sections of railroad tickets were alphabetized and distributed across campus the day after registration." Methods used in other schools range from the unpopular regis- trar's assignment (when the stu- dent merely submits a list of ap- proved courses and is arbitrarily assigned hours and days by ad- ministrative clerks) to elaborate photographic systems costing "tens of thousands of dollars more than our own," Grosebeck said. CONFIRMED: Fall TuitionI Increases Considered A top University administrator yesterday confirmed reports that increases in student fees for next fall are now under consideration. The administrator, who asked not to be named lest he embarrass the University's position in forth- coming legislative hearings on its budget, said that no fee increases are now budgeted. They might be made, however, if the legislature does not approve the full Univer- sity budget or if new items of cost arise., P r e s e n t University operating budget requests of more than $34,- 000,000 provide for increased sal- aries, higher operating costs and the operation of new buildings not in use when last year's appropria- tion of $26,000, was made. The subject of tuition increases for state-supported educational institutions was raised recently by members of the legislature, who spoke in terms.of 20 or 30 per cent hikes. Michigan State University President John Hannah comment- ed that state institutions could raise fees "without much diffi- culty if they raise them together." While technically only the Re- gents of the University could raise fees here, the legislature could force such action upon them by substantially cutting budget re- quests. Rush Calendar Still Undecided By Sororities Panhellenic Research Committee was still unable yesterday to pre- sent an organized 1958 rushing calendar for delegate approval. Planning a new calendar became necessary after Student Govern- ment Council approved spring rushing for sororities last March. At that time, a proposed sched- ule was to include a two-and-one half week formal rushing period with pre-registration in December. A research Committee was form- ed tosconsider calendar changes and other revisions that the spring rushing system would bring about. Marcia Highlands, chairman of the committee said as the calendar now stands, rushing would start at the beginning of the 1957-58 second semester. Yesterday's hold- up came about, in part, because the policy-making group is "run- ning into conflicts with other activities in trying to work out a schedule." In the only discussion of calen- dar business, delegates straw-voted a nine-bid second party plan in- stead of the customary six. This method enables rushees to visit more houses during the second set, Miss Highlands explains. How- ever, she pointed out, this plan may conflict with women's hours. committees Wednesday. Meeting jointly the committees approved the resolution on a 20-8 vote. Republican leaders haven't de- cided yet whether to fight on the Senate floor for restoration of the administration's original language which would have given the Presi- dent specific congressional author- ization to employ American mili- tary forces in the strategic Mid- east under certain circumstances. Senator Knowland of California, the GOP leader, said the State De- partment is making a study of the new language. The White House reported Wednesday night that both President Eisenhower and Secretary of State John Foster Dulles are inclined to believe the language is designed to give the President the authority he asked for. In addition to stating this coun- try's readiness to fight Red ag- gression in the Middle East, the resolution authorized President Eisenhower to undertake a 200- million-dollar foreign aid program in the area. World News Roundup By The Associated Press CAIRO - United States Am- bassador Raymond Hare met for three and one-half hours with President Gamal Nasser yester- day in an air of doubt and con- cern over the Dulles proposals for getting Israeli forces out of Egypt and Gaza. No details were disclosed but some Egyptian sources said they thought Hare might clarify the proposals put forward by the sec- retary of state. Egyptian officials and press have criticized them sharply. * * * LONDON - Britain formally told her North Atlantic Treaty Organization allies yesterday she must cut the number of British troops in Western Germany. A strained economy and a new nuclear concept of military stra- tegy lay behind the move. Details are still secret but it is reported Britain will reduce her forces in Germany from 80,000 to about 50,000. * * * THOMASVILLE, Ga. - Presi- dent Dwight D. Eisenhower last night accepted the resignation of Robert Tripp Ross, assistant sec- retary of defense, who has been under Senatef'committee investi- gation regarding Army contracts awarded to his wife. * * * WASHINGTON - The Treas- ury announced yesterday it wants to raise the interest it pays on United States savings bonds to three and one-quarter per cent. The present rate is three per cent. If Congress approves - as ex- pected - the change will be ret- roactive to Feb. 1. Another contemplated change in the savings bond program, also retroactive to Feb. 1, include: The 3 bonds will reach maturity -and maximum value - in eight years and 11 months instead of the present nine years and eight months. The issue price, and the face value will remain the same. -Daily-John Hirtzel SUN AND SNOW - Early risers yesterday found Ann Arbor blanketed by an unexpected snowfall. By noon the more typi- cal February thaw took over, turning the picturesque snow into "unpicturesque" slush! Once again the beauty of nature leaves us with wet feet. LIKE 'BAZAAR' O'Brien Finds UN Valuable In Discussion of Problems By PHILIP MUNCK The greatest present value of the United Nations lies in its being a meeting place for the countries of the world to talk out their prob- lems, Conor Cruise O'Brien, delegate to the United Nations from the Irish Free State said yesterday. Delivering a lecture sponsored by the Michigan Student Bar As- sociation O'Brien likened the UN to a bazaar, "a bazaar where opin- ions are exchanged and felt." It was regretable, he said, and even deplorable that the UN did not and could not take action in Hungary during the recent revolt. But even though it did not take direct action, the debates and reso- lutions passed by the General As- I- Policy Committee Decides 8-6 A ainst Reds Lodge Denounces Complaint As 'False But Votes for Debate UNITED NATIONS, N. Y. (1- The United Nations Steering Com- mittee yesterday beat down a So- viet demand for immediate As- sembly debate on the Eisenhower doctrine and other alleged aggres- sive acts by the United States. The committee voted 8-6 against the Russian move after United States Chief Delegate Henry Cabot Lodge Jr., denounced the complaint as "stupidly false" and a "gigan- tic cock and bull story." Lodge, however, conformed to the standing U.S. policy in favor of airing all charges against the United States. He voted with the Soviet delegation for a debate. Others voting for debate were Cehcloslovakia, Egypt, India -and Britain. Vote Count Countries voting against were Nationalist China, Denmark, Do- minican Republic, El Salvador, France, Italy, Peru and Turkey. Pakistan abstained and the 16th committee member, Prince Wan Waithayakon of Thailand, As- sembly president, did not take part in the voting. Lodge said the United States did not object to inscription of the proposed item on the Assembly agenda "in the belief that mem- bership in the United Nations gives every member government the right to make a fool of himself if he wants to, and that is a right of which the Soviet Union in this case has taken complete advan- tage." Final Decision The final decision is up to the 80-nation Assembly. Soviet Deputy Foreign Minister Vassily V. Kuz- netsov is expected to renew his demand when the Assembly takes up the report of the steering com- mittee. Kuznetsov charged that the Ei- senhower doctrine was aimed at direct U.S. intervention in the in- ternal affairs of the Middle East. String Quartet To Perform The Quartetto Italiano will pre- sent three performances in the 17th annual Chamber Music Festi- val under the auspices of the Uni- versity Musical Society today, to- morrow and Sunday in Rackham Aud. The concerts today and tomor- row will be given at 8:00 p.m. and on Sunday at 2:30 p.m. Playing in the string quartet will be Paolo Borciani and Elisa Pegreffi, violinists; Piero Farulli, violist; and Franco Rossi, cellist, Included in today's performance will be Vitali's "Capriccio," Neri's "Sonata," Prokofieff's "Quartet No. 2, F major, Op. 92" and "Quar- tet in E-flat major, Op. 74" by Beethoven. The musical groups have toured both continents, playing more than 120 concerts from November to May in America last season. One unique feature of the uar- tet is their ability to present their concerts completely from mem- ory. Tomorrow's concert will include "Quartet in C major, K. 465" by Mozart, "Quartet" by Valentino Bucchi and "Quartet in G minor, Op. 10" by Debussy. Sunday, the group will perform Cambini's "Quartet Nr. 2 in G minor," Mozart's "Quartet in D minor, K. 421," and "Quartet in C major" by Schubert. University Status TO DECIDE COUNCIL'S EFFECTIVENESS: Committee Begins Scheduled Evaluation of SGC sembly were not without effect, he added. "The Russian action in Hun- gary caused a change in the atti- tudes of some of the neutral coun- tries and the UN made them aware of conditions causing these changes", O'Brien said. He recalled that when he asked some recently freed Hungarians during the revolt if the resolutions were worthless, they replied, "No. The resolutions cause Russia to lose face and ease the pressure on us and the Poles." The people who accuse the UN of failing to act in world crises are usually those who overlook the UN's work in social, economic and relief areas, O'Brien com- mented. "The action in Hungary," he asserted, "is not going to :hange the attitudes of the Communist party abroad nor cause the walls of Jericho to fall." The 39-year-old delegate em- phasized that the press tends to represent the workings of te UN as quite orderly. "The United Na- tions is, however, composed of people and sometimes quite fal- lible people." He said there can be quite a lot of confusion in a body as large as the United Na- tions, especially when they have been meeting almost continuously for the last threa and one-half months. Pa nhel Raises Sorority Quota To Sixty-Five Panhellenic Board of Delegates yesterday unanimously passed the sorority quota raise recently ap- proved by the Office of the Dean of Women. The plan, which provides that houses may boost their resident maximum from 60 to 65 coeds, was tentatively approved by delegates Jan. 10. Approving the plan, the admin- istration sent a letter covering the issue to Panhellenic financial ad- visors. It contained five main points: 1) Sororities may expand their active quotas up to 65 beginning with Spring bid day in March. 2) With the opening of the new women's dormitory, Markley Hall, (sometime during the 1958-59 year) residence halls will make provisions for incoming sorority transfers on a yearly contract basis, according to date of appli- cation. 3) As of September, 1957, sor- orities will retain those transfers whom they housed the previous year. 4)~ Sorriies mayn continuep to use By VERNON NAHRGANG The promised evaluation of Student Government Council has begun. Meeting yesterday for the third time, the recently appointed eval- uation committee continued its discussion of SGC's functions in light of the Council's past history and experiences.
