fourth floor butto . She said she
didn't know what to do with him
so she hid him in her room until
shortly after 1 a.m. when she led
him outside.
The visitor was discovered in
her room again that afternoon
when another coed on the same
floor walked in to borrow some
rubbing alcohol. When the occu
pant opened her closet door to get
the alcohol, her hallmate saw the
man inside and ran down the hall
exclaiming, "There's a man in
here."
Two disbelieving hallmates
went down to investigate, using
the pretense that they wanted to
borrow some records. When they
entered the room, the man was
sitting on the bed.
Two other residents then re
ported the coed to their head
hostess, Mrs. Mercedes Askew,
who promptly turned the girl
over to the dean of women's of

Assistant Dean of Women Chris
tine R. Yohe talked with the
woman Sunday night. Dean of
Women Pearl 0. Weston said she
would rather not reveal what took
place at that conversation until
after the case is handled by the
Women's Student Government As
sociation. Miss Weston said the
case would probably be passed
on to the Senate subcommittee on
student affairs.

GENEVA (/t')—Russia and the West each formally re
jected the other's proposals for a German peace settlement
yesterday, but the Soviet Union announced readiness to
discuss several points of the Western package plan linking
German issues and security.
• Foreign Minister Andrei Grornyko told — the Big Four
conference that the Soviet gov-
ernment is prepared to talk spe
cifically about disarmament, a
no n aggression declaration and
creation of a mixed committee of
East and West Germans.
Russia will not discuss German
reunification, he said.
U.S. Secretary of State Chris
tian A. Herter told the confer-
ence that the Soviet proposi
tion for a peace treaty to be
signed with both East and West
Germany would "recognize in
effect the permanent par . ,. ion
of Germany" and "holds the

speeches, but he avoided angry
charges,

A plan for a reorganized University party built around
six standing committees will be discussed and voted on at
an open party meeting at 7 p.m. Sunday in 121 Sparks.

present party chairman.

For these changes to become a
part of University party's consti

be passed by the present Execu
tive Committee and by a two

Senate Subcommittee on Student
Affairs must also approve the
changes for them to become ef
fective.
