The assembly will meet at 7:30 p.m. in 203 Hetzel Union Build ing. John Brandt, alternate assem blyman who compiled the infor mation, said last night that his report contains no recommenda tions. It is only to let the assem blymen know the facts, he said. He said he hopes the issue will be debated and that some action will be taken by assem bly. but added that the direction of the action would have to be assembly's decision. The federal loan program !n question was instituted by the National Defense Education Act. It requires all those who receive fl loan under the act to sign an affadavit disclaiming membership in, or support of, any organiza tion seeking to overthrow the United States government by il legal means. The assembly will also hear a committee report on the question of choosing class vice presidents and secretaries. The Standing Committee on Legislation, chaired by Donald Clagett, former sophomore class president, feels that there is a need for the offices, but that they should not be elected posi tions. Instead, the committee feels, each class president should appoint a vice chairman and a secretary of his advisory board. Class vice presidents and sec retaries in the past have been merely “figureheads,” Richard Haber, committee member said, with the president designating the power, anyway.” The vice chairman could chair the advisory board and could be the president’s official alternate for the assembly, the committee suggested. The secretary could be re sponsible for handling finances as far as the president sees fit and for routine secretarial mat ters. In other action, Marcus Katzen, sophomore in business adminis- (Continued on page eight) Sig Of Pi, KDR Drinking The Interfraternity Council Board of Control found two fraternities not guilty of violations of coed drinking regula tions at a meeting last night. Sigma Pi and Kappa Delta Rho were exonerated of any blame for two drinking violations which occured Nov. 6.

Robert Parsky, board chairman, praised the members of the IFC tn general commenting on the gqod judicial record of the fra ternities so far this year.

At one point Secret Service guards rushed into the car beside the President as thousands of Indians pressed against it in a display that was at once inspiring and terrifying. The President came through it all weary, but smiling. He told Prime Minister Nehru he was “completely overwhelmed.” Perhaps a million and a half Indians joined in the biggest wel come this country ever has given a foreign visitor. The throngs crumpled police lines, repeatedly halting the open car in which Eisenhower was riding with Nehru. Once the chiefs of state were sur rounded by a sea of cheering people for more than 15 minutes. Finally, a police car managed to back through the crowd and Nehru left Eisenhower’s car to ride ahead. Two Secret Service men got in beside Eisenhower while Nehru, standing in the car ahead, led the way, waving to the crowd to stand back. Later, as the motorcade reached a less-crowded spot, Neh ru rejoined Eisenhower. Af the end of the 11-mile 2-hour ride from the airport to India's presidential palace, Ei senhower stood ankle deep in flower petals. He was rumpled and seemingly somewhat bewildered after the greatest reception ever accorded him on his world travels. But he still could summon that famous smile. President Rajendra Prasad had called upon his people to welcome Eisenhower as “a messenger of peace.” And it was in this spirit that the people came thronging to see the first U.S. chief executive ever to visit India. The Nehru-Eisenhower talks may touch also on the dispute between Pakistan and India over iheir rival claims fo Kash mir. President Mohammed Ayub Khan gave Eisenhower the Paki stani basis for claims on the di vided state. Nehru is expected to do the same. But Eisenhower is expected to stand clear of the dis oute except to urge both sides to settle their differences peacefully.
