Sander Is Acquitted In Mercy Killing Case
Labor Govt. Wins
Test in Britain;
Also Suffers Cut
MANCHESTER, N. H. Dr.
Hermann Sander has been found
innocent of murder charges in
his so-called mercy killing trial
for the death of a cancer patient.
Sander's case is now before the
New Hampshire Medical Society,
a group which has no legal au
thority, but can recommend that
the state revoke a; doctor's license.
LONDON—Britain's labor gov
ernment has won the first formal
test of its strength in the new
House of Commons, at the same
time suffering a cut in its slim
majority. In a vote on a conserva
tive motion of censure of state
ownership of ,the iron and steel
industry, Prime Minister Clem
ent Attlee's Laborites staved off
any immediate new parliamen
tary election. The proposal was
beaten down by 14 votes, 310 to
296.
Because a conservative won a
delayed parliamentary election
in Manchester, the Laborites now
have an absolute majority of only
six in the full 625-member Com
mons.

Study Saturday
Class Elimination
A study of faculty reaction to
proposed elimination of Saturday
classes for the Fall semester is
now being made by Ray Watkins,
College Scheduling Officer.
Reasons for the study, as set
forth in a questionnaire sent to
faculty members, are that many
departments do not care to have
classes on Saturday. Also some
departments schedule classes on
Saturday and then change the
hours after registration.
A sequence of class hours which
would make a five-day class week
possible was included in the study.
Faculty opinion is sought on thir
teen combinations of hours, ex
cluding those on Saturday.
If the plan goes • Into effect,
classes will be held on (1) Mon
day,, .Tuesday, and Thursday; (2)
Monday, Wednesday, and Thurs
day; (3) Monday, Wednesday, and
Friday; (4) Tuesday, Thursday,
and Friday.
It is emphasized that this ques
tionnaire is merely part of a
study. Definite action on the issue
will be taken sometime this
week.
