Miss Crozier said
yesterday. She t \

A tumultuous 26 hours of steady

Others chanted, "We are free.

Rhee’s formal resignation was
considered sure. Only the timing
was in doubt.
It was agreed that a caretaker
government, possibly to be head
ed by independent, 62-year-old
Huh Chung, must take over and
elections must be called within
three months.
The National Assembly, backed
by the students, demanded that
Rhee resign' immediately. Its res
olution was adopted Monday by
the 140 members who showed up.
It has 231 members.
All through Monday stu
dents demonstrated and cele
brated. Troops charged with en
forcing martial law did little or
nothing to check them. Police,
haled by many Koreans as a
symbol of repression, disap
peared. Most apparently either
fled Seoul or shed their uni
forms, leaving law enforcement
up to the army, which has been
in charge since last week's
"bloody Tuesday" riots precipi
tated by the climactic crisis.
The Health Ministry reported at
least 15 more persons died in
Monday’s riots and more than 170
were wounded. For the week of
violence, the totals rose to at least
145 dead, bv official count, and
more than 800 wounded.
Seoul waited anxiously to see
what Rhee would do. Most agreed
he could not wait much longer
before bowing to the public clam
or for his resignation.

Students
On 'Pro'
Any student who has been placed on academic or dis
ciplinary probation may not participate in Spring Week in
any capacity, Dean Frank J. Sirnes, dean of men, announced
yesterday.
Exam Conflict Schedule
The complete conflict sched
ule for this spring's final exam
inations will be published in
The Daily Collegian tomorrow.
in non-violent pickets, “sit-ins”
and marches is to move to take
possession of the l ights which they
are guaranteed in the constitu
tion.
New fuel was added lo this
determined reaction when the
Rev. Marlin Luther King Jr.
called for a national "selective
buying" campaign against busi
nesses that practice segrega
tion, at a conference at Shaw
University on April 15 in Ra
leigh. N.C.
The conference, under the aus-i
pices of the Southern Christian]
Leadership Conference which
King heads, was attended by over]
100 students from 40 Southern
communities.
“These students have embraced
a philosophy of mass, direct non
violent action. They are moving
away from tactics whicli are suit
able merely for gradual and long
term change,” King said. i
Simes explained that ‘‘participating in Spring Week”
pgtatt
Cautioned
Violations
means every activity from “stuff-!
ing paper in chicken wire to make 1
a float to playing a major role 1
in one of the skits.” |
The decision was made, Simes
said, to avoid the confusion
which occurred during Greek ■
Week after it was learned that
members of sororities and fra- ,
ternities who had won the Sing !
were on probation. !
The Greek Week committee had
not announced any policy on eli
gibility before the sing. When it
was reported that one member of
Pi Beta Phi quartet which won
the soroiity contest was on aca
demic probation, Pi Phi was dis
qualified. ~ ,
It was also revealed that sev
eral other winrurs and many,
other entrants also had partici
pating members on probation. The
Greek Week committee finally]
decided to reinstate all winners,
because no previous announce
ment had been made.
Simes said that the regulation
will be strictly enforced and that
groups who have members on pro
bation and who are currently par
ticipating in preparations * for
Spring Week should have these
students replaced immediately .

would Jake action against any
I students violating the regula
tion although he said he did
not know exactly what action
would be taken.

the coeds involved from the

open house on the one day when
[there is no holiday, accoiding to
