Grand Jury
To Probe
Crashes
NEWARK. N.J., Feb. 13 (W)—
A Federal Grand Jury investiga
tion of Newark airport and three
plane crashes at neighboring
Elizabeth was ordered today as
four other investigations were
underway.
Federal Judge Thomas Meaney
announced that the crashes and
the airport operations would be
investigated for any possible vi
olations of federal criminal law.
The announcement of the fifth
investigation spurred by Mon
day's crash came as the death
toll rose to 32 with the death
of Sarah Aronwald of the Bronx,
N.Y., a plane passenger. Twenty
eight persons still are in hospi
tals.
Meanwhile, construction crews
went ahead on a new $2,500,000
instrument runway at closed
Newark airport. Officials of the
Union Building and Construction
C 0.,, said they have received no
instructions from the Port of New
York Authority, which operates
the field, to halt work on the
runway.
The Port Authority, prior to
the three Elizabeth crashes which
have taken a total of 118 lives
-11 of them on the ground—had
authorized construction of t h
new' runway,. designed to elfin-
Mate poor weather flights over
Elizabeth.
- Public clamor for the removal
of once-proud Newark airport re
called today it wasn't too long
ago when the agitation was on
the other side of the fenc e—
fighting to save the field from
extinction.
Senate Ignores
Customs Plans
As required by the Women's
Student Government Association
constitution. WSGA Senate will
not act on the proposals of chan
ges in freshman customs but will
wait for a recommendation from
Freshman Council.
The proposals include one ap
proved by Tribunal setting up a
coordinated program of customs
for both men and women and
the plan presented at a freshman
class meeting proposing more lib
eral dating regulations for new
freshmen.
Two Senate members expressed
approval of the proposed amend
ment to the All-College Consti
tution permitting a statistical poll
of student opinion to be con
ducted in the event of a petition
being signed by ten per cent of
the student body requesting the
poll.
- Janet Herd, junior senator, and
Marlene -Heyman, Panhellenic
Council representative, said the
poll would be more likely to be
"unbiased" than - a referendum
and would help take "politics"
out of cabinet decisions. •
Senate will investigate reports
that freshman women have been
dating in McKee and Hamilton
Halls. The dorms are off bounds
since they are men's living units.
Since several members of
Freshman Council did' not make
the 1.5 average required by the
constitution, they will be re
placed by the vice presidents of
freshman living units if they
qualify. If the vice presidents are
not eligible, senate will appoint
representatives on recommenda
tions from hostesses
