HouseVotes SGC Candidates Disc uss -Rushing A(EDITOR'S NOTE: This is the first in a series of articles describing com- ments of Student Government Council candidates at the pre-election open houses. The candidates' views on deferred rushing are covered in today's article.) By JOHN WEIGHER Student Government Council decreed spring rush for women two years ago; this spring, candidates for SGC find themselves faced with the issue again. University women went through their first "spring-only" spring rush last month. SGC has been conducting a survey among the women to determine reactions to the policy. Candidates have expressed diverse views on the subject, and on the possibility of spring rush for men also. Steve Bailie, '60, told Delta Gamma sorority, "Panhellenic Associa- tion should be able\to run its own business." If women want deferred NO MONEY: University Building May Halt U' Operations 'Efficier Russell Committee Sa Special to The Daily LANSING - University struction is liable to grind con- to a Freeze Farm Parity WASHINGTON (A-The House yesterday voted a one-year freeze on farm price supports and plant- ing allowances which advocates called an anti-recession check on the decline in the farm economy. Republicans and a handful of city Democrats waged an unsuc- cessful fight to kill the bill or limit it to dairy products. They were outvoted 210-17 by Democrats and dissatisfied corn belt Republi- cans. The bill now goes back to the Senate to compromise differences overthe time period, pemocratic leaders in the Sen- ate said they planned to try to accept the House measure and speed it to the Whie'House. Sen. William Knowland of California, the Senate Republican leader, said ino such plan had been discussed with him. There is a wide expectation that President Dwight D. Eisenhower will veto the bill. The House version would stay pending price support cuts for 1958, holding the supports at last year's levels. Planting allowances for 1959 would be held at no less than this year's acreage allot- ments. Deker Wins Study Grant The Lederle Medical Faculty award of $26,293.50 has been given to Eugene E. Dekker, of the medi- cal school's biochemistry depart- ment. The -grant, announced yesterday by Dr. A. C. Furstenberg, dean of the medical school1 is to support Dekkert's salary for a three-year period and includes a stipend of $500 per year for travel to pro- fessional meetings. The Lederle Awards are given on the basis of a national com- petition. It Ii jud ed by medical educators from di erent parts of the United States. Dekker was chosen for the award, according to Dr. Halvor Christensen of the biochemistry department 'as a result of his outstanding contributions to the field of biological chem#isty so far in his career, and for the excep- tional promise he shows for the future." Dean Turner Sees Changes For Affiliates raternties can be the source of indivduality in the coming largedUniversities, Frederick Tur- ner, dean of students at the ni- versity of Ilinois, said,yesterday. Speaking at the' Fraternity President's dinner, Dean Turner said that fraternities must, be pre- pared t face a rossroads in light of. the trends toward larger schools with more graduate and married students. "These growing instituions," he continued, "tend to make the individual into an IBM card and nothing more." One of the big problems of edu- cators and administrators today, he said, is to break down these large impersonal groups so the in- dividual can express his person- ality. Fraternities are one way to do this, he said. "I think, generally speaking, fraternities elsewhere were dis- tnayed by the Sigma Kappa deci- sion. here," he added. "They think of the University as a place where fraternities can operate as theyj see fit. When this kind of thing happens they wonder if the na- tional organizations are starting rushing they should have it, he said.L The 0 ' th JudicLets Ba , for iesselIUn to tern " on foe C vell in 4 David Kessel, Grad., will be allowed to run for Student Gov- ernment Council. Joint Judiciary Council "extend- ed eligibility to Kessel" Mike Jacobson, '58, Joint Judic Chair- man, said last night. Kessel told Joint Judic there was a great difference between an in- structor and a teaching fellow. He pointed out that often grad- uate students who were teaching fellows or working in deans' offices sat on the Board in Control of Student Publications as student members. He said that he/would represent student, and not' faculty, opinion if he is elected to SGC. Rolin Thompson, Grad., presi- dent of the Graduate Student Council, also spoke to Joint Judic at the meeting last night. Thgmpson told The Daily Wed- nesda, "the Graduate Student Coun il is very interested in hav- ing a graduate student on SGC to represent the views of the gradu- ate students." Kessel's eligibility was question- ed on the grounds that he was a teaching fellow, and also was not a full-time student in the graduate school. Formal Red, Pledge Asked For Summit WASHINGTON (W-The United States called yesterday for formal assurances that Russia wants a carefully prepared, decision-mak- ing summit conference and not just a "spectacle." In doing so the State Depart- ment hinted Presidents Dwight D. Eisenhower would delay a reply to Soviet Premier Nikoli Bulganin's March 3 letter until Moscow an- swers his question: "What is the purpose for which a summit meeting would be held' This blunt question was posed in a detailed United States note on summit problems delivered to the Soviet Foreign Office two weeks ago. "We are now therefore awaiting a reply to our aide memoire of March 6," the State Department pointedly noted. Until the SGC report appeared, did not want toitake a stand on e issue. At Phi Gamma Delta fraternity, ,ille opposed deferred rushing r men because men shouldn't be d when they can rush. Also, .l rush jeopardizes the small fra- rnities, which sometimes depend first-semester initiates to stay existence, he said. Favor Deferred Rush SGC Treasurer Scott Chrysler, BAd., definitely opposed spring sh, as a "whole year of wasted Justment. Students should start t the way they're going to live r the next three and one-half ars," he told Delta Gamma. It's ifair to penalize the women who ow what they want to do be-1 use others do not, he said. Ron Gregg, '60, spoke against ferred fraternity rushing at Beta .eta Pi fraternity. He claimed ere was no indication men need ferred rush. Men now can rush en they want to; besides, rush- g doesn't affect men as much as does women, he said, He favored Interfraternity Council rushing dy. halt next year unless Michigan legislators find an answer to the state's financial chaos. .A $5,458,500 capital-outlay rec- ommendation was made yesterday to the legislature to continue work on projects a 1r e a d y started throughout the state. But Sen. Robert E. Faulkner (R-Colona), chairman of the House-Senate subcommittee on capital outlay, said "We hopet to have $15 million for new projects next year but the state is in even worse financial condition than last year." Include Remodeling Funds Included in the recommenda- tions are $1,175,000 for the Uni- versity to continue construction of an $8,500,000 medical science. building and $390,000 for a re- modeling project at University Hospital. University Vice-President Wil- liam E. Stirton noted the figures are only for current projects and include nothing for planning or new construction. Major hope for an extensive state-wide building program next year lies with several suggested bonding programs under consid- eration by the legislature. Would Replace Faulkner's Outlays If any one of them is approved, it would replace Sen. Faulkner's recommended outlays. Three bonding plans have been intro- duced here. One, sponsored by Rep. George Sallade (R-Ann Arbor) provides for $60 million over a five years period for construction of educa- tional buildings. It would pledge the. faith and credit of the state and be subject to approval by a vote of the people. A revenue bond issue is pro- posed by Sen. Faulkner that would exchange educational bonds for bonds, held in several state trust funds:. It would be valued rough- ly at $45 million but be subject only to legislative approval. Also Needs Legislative Approval The third proposal is Gov. G. Mennen Williams' $114 million revenue bonding proposal. It also would need only legislative ap- proval. Twelve University projects to- taling $25,254,000 in outlay are included in the ,governor's plan. Seven of the proposed projects are general University buildings and five o fthem are part of Uni- versity Hospital. MSU Plans To Postpone Admissions EAST LANSING (AJ' - Michi- gan State University decided yes- terday to suspend the acceptance, of students for at least four weeks until it is determined how much money the Legislature will pro- vide for operations during the next fiscal year. Dr. John A. Hannah, MSU pres- ident, said the action was agreed upon by the Michigan Council of State College Presidents. All the state-supported colleges and universities, with the possible exception of Wayne State Univer- sity, have agreed on similar ac- tion, he said. No University Increase (University officials have said it will be impossible to increase enrollment next fall if the rec- ommended slashes in its opera- tional budget are approved.) The State Board of Agriculture, MSU governing body, was the first to take the step. "It wouldn't be fair to accept applications from the students and then tell them they can't en- roll because we haven't got enough money to take care of them," D. B. Varner, MSU vice president said. "We won't know how many students we can admit until we know how much money we have to work with." Expects Same Enrollment Hannah said the suspension of acceptances would be for a four- week period. He said, however, he expected about the same enroll- ment as last fall's 19,700 students could be accepted. Hannah, Varner and board members expressed extreme con- cern over the decision of the Sen- ate Appropriations Committee to trim the MSU budget $1,011,000 from last year. House To Vote On Military WASHINGTON (1P)-A bill rais-, ing military pay scales was ap- proved by the House Armed Serv- ices Committee yesterday and routed toward the floor. Under Rules Committee clear- ance, the bill will be considered by the House Monday. A vote is ex- pected Monday or Tuesday. A companion measure, also, de- signed to keep more good men jn the service, is pending in the Sen- ate Armed Services Committee. Spring Is Here Left Fraternity He also did not want to express an opinion on women's rush until the.Panhellenic-Assembly Associa- tion report was issued. Of the seventeen candidates who expressed opinions on the question of deferred rushing, seven with- held final judgments until reports from the several committees study- ing the women's situation. Seven others opposed deferred rush; only three supported it. In regard to men's deferred rushing, only one candidate favor- ed the once-a-year plan. Other candidates gave as reasons for op- posing deferred fraternity rushing the larger number of fraternities and men students, and any man who wishes can wait a semester under the present system. Jo Hardee,s'60, saidemotional problems involved in women's rush lead her to favor deferred rush for women. There are factors of se- curity involved, which don't affect men, she told Scott House. In regard to men's deferred rush, Miss Hardee said she would vote against it if she had to vote on it at present. 'Wasted Adjustment' Bruce Hoffman, '59, told Stock- well Women's Residence he once belonged to a fraternity and favor- ed deferred rushing for frater- nities. He said he left because of "disilusionment." Carol Holland, '60, told Delta Gamma she wanted to return to the fall rush system for women., However, she couldn't make a statement until final reports are in from SGC and Panhel - As- sembly; but early reports show actives prefer fall rush, and rushees, spring, she told Alpha Xi Delta sorority. See COUNCIL, Page 6 --Daily-David Arnold SPRING HARMONY-An impromptu gathering of ballad singers yesterday afternoon in the lobby of Angeli Hall marked the birth, of spring on campus. The singers, who'seemingly gravitated toward a nucleus of two guitarists, serenaded office workers, professors and student passers-by and rapidly attracted an almost "captive" audience. AT PRESIDIUM: IHC Integration Group Criticizes 'Interiference' Regents Plan Budget Talk University Board of Regents will discuss the 1958-59 budget at its March meeting today. Appointments, leaves, gifts' and grants are also on the agenda. The group will meet at 2 p.m. in the Regents' Room on the second floor of the Administrtion build- ing. The budget discussion comes on the heels of a recommended mil- lion dollar slash in the Univer- sity's operating budget for 1958- 59. The recommendation was made by a legislative committee. Drake Duane, '58, Inter-House Council president was accused by a representative,of the IHC inte- gration committee at last night's IHC meeting ,of interfering with that committee. The representative, Boron Chertkov, '60, presented a written, criticism of Duane's actions which claimed that Duane was interfer- ing with the integration com- mittee's communication with the Congregational Disciples Guild and the Student Association for Inter- culture Living. This report gave no specific complaints.- However, during , a verbal debate with Duane, Chert- kov mentioned an article which appeared in The Daily on March 13, in which, Chertkov claimed, Duane had told a Daily reporter that he was opposed to bbth of these groups because they did not "go through the proper channels." Duane denied that he had said this. (The article in question quoted Duane once and this read "IHC Integration Committee Chairman, Larry Curtis, '58, was contacted and attending the, meeting in an 'unofficial' capacity, according to Drake Duane, '58, IHC president.") Duane told the Presidium that his posiiton was that he "en- couraged the group to get the opinion of all campus groups, but In the House committee there were no votes against the measure and no adverse criticism. Twenty- nine committee members voted to approve the bill as it came from a subcommittee Wednesday. If enacted, the measure would mean a pay raise for practically all career servicemen with two or more years of active duty. cautioned the Integration group to come to its own conclusions. After the meeting, representa- tives of the IHC Integration Group withdrew the charge that Duane had publicly discredited the co-j operation betweensthat group and the Congregational' Disciples t andj SAIL, but asserted that he had discredited committee cooperation in private conversations. Dean Accepts Assemy's Housing Plan The dean of women's office has accepted, in essence,' the housing recommendation for next fall of the Assembly Association's Mark- ley Hall Planning Committee, Elsie R. Fuller, assistant dean of women, said yesterday. According to the recommenda- tion, each girl, regardless of class level, will be allowed to Indicate three choices as to the house in which she wishes to live next fall. However, she added, one of the three must be either a house in Markley Hall or the house where, she is living now. If the girls who now live in Prescott, Tyler and Frederick wish to move as a housing unit, she said, they will have priority in Markley as to the specific house in which they may want to live. Priority in existing houses will go to girls who already live there. Any two girls who wish to move and room together will be allowed to do so, but no such consideration can be given to a larger group. A joint committee of the Plan- ning Committee and the office of the, Dean of Women will make the final decision as to house for those girls who wish to move, she con- tinued. Selection will be made at ran- dom from girls at each class level. Previously, it has been impos- sible to give girls much choice as to whether or not they wanted to move, she said. In the past three years this has been due primarily to overcrowding in the houses. With the addition of Markley Hall next fall, houses will be able to cut back to their normal capac- itV.

Himmel Answers Questions Between passing out papers and asking Robert McCormick, a Wayne State University student ("I'm just taking the courses I want to."), to get more copies from the car, Himmel kept up the answering end of a questioning period. University students asked him, "How can you think socialism can work?" and "Are you on the Attorney General's list?"
