Academic Honesty Discipline Boards To Be Proposed Committees composed of three faculty members and two students will be set up in each college to deal with cases of academic dishonesty if All-University Cabinet accepts the student encampment academic honesty committee’s report tonight. " These committees would handle first offenses only. Sec ond and later offenses would be referred to a central disciplinary committee. The chairman of each college committee would be a member of the central disciplinary commit tee. Representatives from each college committee would also meet periodically to discuss uni formity of penalty. The report, to be presented by Joyce Shusman, chairman of the encampment group, will also'rec ommend that a permanent com mittee to implement the honesty program be set up. The committee, if approved, will consist of the Senate subcommittee on academic honesty, the chairman - and one other student member of the en campment committee, and any ad ditional individuals needed to make the group representative.

That suggestion was made yesterday by the new Philippine delegate, Felixberto Serrano, without con sultation with the big powers here. Western delegates said no rear report could be made in such a short time. Private Meetings Asked Paul Martin, Canadian minister of health and welfare, told the Political Committee that Canada believed the disarmament nego tiations should be carried on in private, • without the searching glare of publicity, just as the talks had been conducted in ILondon last spring. He proposed that the group be the same as the London confer ence—the United States, Britain, Prance, Canada and Soviet Union. It would work under the 12-nation U.N. Disarmament Commission rather than under the auspices of the 'Political Committee -as Ser rano proposed. No Deadline .Fixed . Martin did not fix any deadline for a’report from the group but indicated the negotiations should be as thorough as possible. After some spirited procedural talk in the committee, Serrano decided not to press for an im mediate vote on his proposal but to wait , until _all resolutions are voted on at the end of the general debate, which is just beginning.

Speaking before students and faculty of the College of Physical Education and Athletics, Meredith said a student major club at the University would help students solve some of these problems be fore they meet them personally. “Not only is there a lack of unity among members of the pro fession as to w;hat we are trying to do, but there .'s also a gross lack of acceptance of the physical education profession on the part of educators and laymen,” he said. He said students as instructors must not just “throw the ball out,” as many teachers do, but must teach physical education in order to overcome the lack of ac ceptance for their profession. Meredith said that some of the problems that hurt the profession are lack of facilities and time, poorly prepared teachers, laziness on the part of good teachers, and poverty stricken programs in the schools.
