Summit Conference
May Become Reality
WASHINGTON WP)-The United
States and Russia may finally
open diplomatic negotiations next
week on problems involved in or-
ganizing a summit conference, and
possibly improving East-West rela-'
tions.s
The White House disclosed yes-
terday that Ambassador Mikhail
A. Menshikov, Russia's fast-mov-
ing new envoy, will call on Presi-
dent Dwight D. Eisenhower Tues-
day to present his credentials. This
ceremony will put him in business
here as Moscow's top negotiator.
Thompson Returns Thursday
Meanwhile, United States Am-
bassador to Russia Llewellyn
Thompson, who is understood to
believe that some kind of first
step disarmament agreement with
Moscow may eventually be pos-
sible, is due back in the Soviet
capital Thursday.
He finished up two weeks of
consultation here Friday.
In evident anticipation of active
discussions through Thompson in
Moscow and Menshikov in Wash-
ington, the Soviet radio proclaimed
yesterday that the United States
was correct in insisting on ade-
quate preparation for a summit
conference.
Willingness Announced
The radio comment was a more
explicft statement of what Premier
Nikita Bulganin had officially told
President Eisenhower a week ago
-that Russia was willing to have
preliminary diplomatic negotia-
tions but not a foreign ministers'
conference.
Behind all the sparring over
how to go about setting up a con-
ference stands the hard reality of
x power relationships between the
Soviet and Western blocs, in-
volving a broad range of military
and political factors which change
only slowly.
Among these factors is the
strength of the political base from
which each of the two super pow-
ers can conduct negotiations.
State Department officials stress
that there are disagreements and
weaknesses on the Soviet side. The
East German purge fits into this
picture.
High School
Accreditation
Causes Debate
By RICHARD TAUB
A minor controversy has de-
veloped among some faculty mem-
bers and administrators over the
accreditation of a Holland Michi-
gan high school.
Holland Christian High School
was dropped from the accredited
list last spring by the North Cel-
tral Association of Colleges and
secondary schools, because ac-
cording to NCA it failed to fullfil
adequately the educational needs
_._ :.of all its students.
The school did not have courses
in industrial arts or home eco-
nomics.
Broader Programs Required
According to Prof. Lester W.
Anderson of the education school,
~chairman of the NCA Michigan.
division, the school program was
geared primarily toward college
preparation, but only approxi-
matelyone third of its graduates
attend college.
NCA, which is composed of
schools and colleges in 19 states,
requires that all schools which are
up for approval have not only
purely academic programs "con-
cerned with preparation for col-
lege," but it should also "provide
for the interests, needs, and abili-
ties of all pupils as well as for the
requirements of the community
and the public supporting the
school."

NCA had worked with Holland

and top rebounder in last night's 88-81 victory, goes high in the

Cagers Beat Illinois 88-81
To Regain Conference Ldead
By AL JONES
Michigan rushed past Illinois last night, 88-81, to move back
into first placein the harried Big Ten basketball race.
The victory came, above all else, because the Wolverines had
five hard-working cagers on the floor for the full 40 minutes. There
was none of the oft-seen scoring and defensive lapses, and each
player did his part in each phase of the game.
Capacity Crowd
A near capacity crowd of 8,200 fans watched the game at Yost
Field House. They saw the two teams scramble through a high-scoring

TUNIS (P)-A force of 25 French1
warplanes bombed and strafed a
Tunisian town on the Algerian
frontier for an hour yesterday.
Tunisian officials charged that
about 100 persons were killed and
82 wounded.
The French declared the raid
was a legitimate defense against
Algerian rebels taking refuge on
Tunisian soil.
Claim Attack
They charged rebel antiaircraft
guns from the area damaged
Frech observation planes flying
over Algeria Friday and again yes-
terday.
The raid added further strain to
French-Tunisian relations, alreadyE
near the bursting point.
The Tunisian government an-
nounced its ambassador to France,
already flying home for consulta-
tions, was being recalled formally.
It also said Tunisia will appeal to
the United Nations if France does
not withdraw all its forces in
Tunisia.
Tunisia Demands Withdrawal
The Tunisians are demanding
the withdrawal include those sta-
tioned at the Huge Mediterranean
naval base at Bizerte.
A Tunisian spokesman said the
town of Sakiet Sidi Youssef with
a popualtion of 2,000 was jammed
with marketers when the French
planes roared over.
In the attacking force were 11
twin-engine U.S.-made B26 bomb-
ers, 6 U.S.-built Navy Corsair,
fighter-bombers and 8 French Mis-
tral jet fighters, the Tunisian said.
Students Killed
Mustapha Fillali of the Tunisian
Information Ministry said a class
was under way in the mining
school and all the students were
killed.

The previous record was set in
the Spring of 1957 with 25,144
enrolled credit students.
Steady Increase Expected
"A greater interest in higher

a 15-point lead.

IOWA CITY, Ia.-After break-
ing out into a 27-11 lead by cap-
turing three of. four first places,
Michigan's swimming team rolled
on to an easy 59-46 victory over
Iowa's Hawkeyes last night at the
University of Iowa pool.
In earning their third triumph,
the undefeated Wolverines me-
thodically churned past an Iowa
squad that was rated before the
season by Michigan swim coach
Gus Stager as the team to beat in
the Western Conference.
Fries Outstanding
Stager termed the triumph as a
team victory. However, he pointed
out the performance of Pete Fries
in the 200-yd. freestyle as out-
standing.
Fries placed second in that event
behind Michigan's Dick Hanley
and in so doing defeated Iowa ace
Jim Coles, holder of second place
in the Big Ten 200-yd, freestyle
finals in 1956.
It was expected that Gary Mor-
ris and Coles would provide a
strong one-two punch for the
Hawkeyes in the short and middle
distance freestyle events.
Morris Wins Freestyle
Although Morris copped first
place in both the 50- and 100-yd.
freestyle, Coles was able to sal.
vage only two thirds in his events.
The 100-yd. freestyle was con-
sidered by Stager as tie most
exciting of the night's competition.
It featured four of seven of the
nation's top sprinting freestylers:
Morris and Coles of Iowa against
Hanley and Carl Woolley of Michi-
gan.

Fifteen independent citizens as-
sociated with behavioral science,
four of whom are from the Uni-
versity, appeared in Washington
yesterday urging a national effort
to expand research in this field.
Purpose of the boosted research
in human behavior would enhance
international relations and
strengthen national defense, the
group indicated.
Members from- the University
include Prof. James G. Miller,
director of the Mental Health Re-
search Institute who heads the
citizen group; Prof. Ralph W.
.Gerard and the Rev. Mr. C. Leslie
Glenn, also of the Institute; and
Donald G. Marquis, chairman of
the psychology department.
Vice President Richard M. Nixon
has previously met with the group
and originally encouraged its for-
mation. Suggestions from the citi-
zens have been discussed with
James R. Killian Jr., special as-
sistant to the President for science
and technology, and other top gov-
ernmental leaders.
The first step of the scientist's
plan calls for the formation of an
advisory panel of behavioral sci-
entists to work closely with the
Special Assistant to the President
for Science and Technology.

Schwartz was one of the group
of students who traveled to Com-
munist China last August despite
State Department orders forbid-
ding American citizens from enter-
ing that country.

Passes Away
In Ann Arbor
Prof. Emeritus Myron B. Chapin
of the art department died yes-

heart attack ,
his water colors, served the Uni-
Prof hapincor, wiely knowni o

by his wife, two daughters, a
brother, a sister, and two grand-
children.
Commenting on Prof. Chapin's
death, Prof. Robert Iglehart,
chairman of the art department,
said, "Prof. Chapin's long service
to the University was marked by
great devotion to his teaching and
to the welfare and development
of his students."
"His death is a loss to the
present faculty and students of
his college, and to a host of gradu-
ates."
Prof. Chapin became an in-
structor in the University architec-
ture college in 1924. He was pro-
moted to assistant prof. in 1929
and to associate prof. in 1947.

IPolaris Submarine
From prepared statements and

missiles experts, newsmen learned
that:
A single Polaris missile sub-
marine will be able to vaporize
inland targets with over 100 mil-
lion tons of nuclear force carried
in more than 10 hydrogen-headed
intermediate range ballistic mis-
siles.
The first atomic submarine
equipped to fire the Polaris is
being built; others are planned.
Plans are being drawn for firing
1,500-mile-range IRBMs from far-
ranging, high-flying planes, pos-
sibly driven by atom power or
chemicals.
Radar Announced
This weapon system will succeed
Hound Dog, the supersonic missile
launched from a B52 which can
hit with "pinpoint accuracy fog;
many hundreds of miles."
Radar eyes in Massachusetts

Florida. This is an easy trick for
the new 3,000-mile-range equip-
ment designed for detecting ballis-
tic missiles headed from Russia
toward America.

fabricated in connection with the

Nation's 'Welfare State'
By MICHAEL KRAFT
Socialist Norman Thomas yesterday confronted nearly 100 stu-
dents, supposedly' "politically disinterested" and showed that the
nation's interests already revolve around socialism.
Describes 'Welfare State'
"When the average businessman talks about free enterprise, it's
for someone else," he told a discussion session sponsored by the Polit-

ical Issues Club. Describing the<
nation as much closer to socialism
than ever thought possible in 1932,
the six time presidential candidate
said "We now have a type of wel-
fare state that is more of a de-
parture from the old laissez-faire
philosophy than from modern
socialism."
In preliminary remarks before"
the question and answer period, he
pointed out that in the nation's
political history, numerous third
parties have pioneered ideas, such
as free education and abolition of
slavery, even though they failed
to win elections.
Warns Against Utopia
"In general, the third party
movements have been composed of
those who were impatient - pio-
neers in ideas," he said.
Later, he warned against seek-
ing -a utopia, for "one set of an-
swers., often raises another set of
problems." He cited nationalism
as a prime example.
Asked after the meeting whether
he sought a utopia during his

Sohyo, a near-communist union, is opposing the University's joint
program with Tokyo's Waseda University to increase employment and
productivity in Japan, according to Kiyoshi Shibuya of Japan's Nissan{
Motors, Ltd.
"I think the objection is political," the automotive time study
expert explained. Shibuya is one of 10 Japanese sent to Ann Arbor
by Waseda this semester to join the group already studying here.
He said a non-communist union called Sodomei has organized
workers at the Nissan plant ani favors rising production. Sohyo is
larger and includes Japan's teachers, miners and railway workers.

Shibuya is studying industrial relations as well.as engineering here'
