Weather For casts Partly Cie Waime VOL. 60. No. 143 WSG Senat Of A I- voted last night to delete the ruling which ith special permission, to visit men's apart • is pending a University Senate ruling or a the dean of women's office to clarify the WSGA Sena allows women, ments. Their vot policy stated by matter. will go into effect as soon as the ruling or policy called for by the motion is substituted. Rule 2-B in the Women's Rules now states that women students are permitted to visit apartments or private areas of living quar ters occupied solely by men if they . have parental approval and special permission of a residence hall staff member. This ruling was in direct con flict with a policy of the dean of men's office which holds that men cannot entertain women in their apartments. It was the feeling of WSGA that the women's ruling on this matter should be combined ,with the men's in the Senate Regula tions. This opinion was backed for it would comply with the community living concept, bring ing the two parties involved into clear agreement. In other business, a commit lee was formed to organize a statement of WSGA's basic ideas on what the duties and areas of jurisdiction of both WSGA and the community councils in the new living plan should be. It was felt that tentative but concrete ideas should be set down and publicized before the end of the semester to reduce possible confusion in the fall. The committee, chaired by Lil Davenport, will draw up this plan and submit it to WSGA Senate for correction and approval next Wednesday night. Approved copies will be sent to the Senate Committee for Stu dent Affairs, the dean of women and the dean of men for consider ation. The deletion nvesti l otion Committee Established SGA Assembly will consider appointments to be made to the SGA Special Investigation Committee at their meeting tonight. This committee, according to SGA President Richard Haber, would serve as a fact-finding board. Haber said the committee would investigate such things as the influence of Lion's Paw on student government and such problems as arose during the last election when former University party chairman James "Tim" Nel ligan was accused of offering an election fix. Former Campus party chair man, John Brandt, related\ a con versation between him and Nel ligan in which Nelligan offered a trade of fall elections for spring elections. When questioned about this, Nelligan said: "I was really trying to find out John's party's strength. I would never throw an election." Haber also said that the com mittee could investigate charges_ made by Assemblyman James Kridel (C.-Jr.) that John Brandt was unauthorized to become party chairman. Brandt then the treasurer took over the chairmanship when the party chairman and vice chairman resigned before the spring elec tions. Elizabeth Ingley, junior in arts and letters from Port Washington, N.Y., will be proposed as a mem ber of the committee. Miss Ingley said last night that the committee would inves tigate facts behind accusations, but would not propose a solu tion. She said people who wish to make facts known can come before the committee.

THURSDAY MORNING. MAY 19. 1960 Russia Asks UN To Act on Flights UNITED NATIONS, N. Y. (/P) The Soviet Union brought the U 2 spy plane case to the United Nations last night, declaring American flights over Soviet soil threatened world peace. The Russians demanded urgent action by the UN Security Council to stop all such flights. In Paris this week President Eisenhower said the flights over the U.S.S.R. had been ordered stopped as of last Thurs day. AIM Over The AIM Board of Governors last night converted itself into an investigation committee to discuss the disappearance of $45.75 from a cabinet in the AIM office. The money was placed in the cabinet by Earl Gershenow, secretary of AIM, George Henning, president of the West Halls Council and Ann Farley, a member of Leonides. The key with which the cabinet was locked is also missing, according to Ger shenow. The alleged theft supposedly took place between May 7 when the money was deposited and Tuesday evening when the cabi net was again officially opened to prepare the funds for the AIM meeting last night. During the heated investiga. Hon, Gershenow offered to re. place the funds himself since he felt it was partly through his negligence that the money was made accessible to the al leged thief. However, the Board of Gover nors unanimously voted to re place the money, which was part of the banquet fund, by taking the missing sum .from the AIM Sinking Fund. This fund was set up by a previous AIM council to provide for emergencies and to buy equipment for the AIM office. Gershenow felt it was an ap. propriato time. in view of the recent incident, to report the petty theft of post cards and paper from the AIM-Leonides office. He asked members to be more careful when working in the office. • In other business the Board voted to change the date of the Indie Encampment from Orien tation weekend to Sunday, Oct. 9. The Encampment will officially begin a week of independent ac tivities—lndie Week. The Board also voted to invite all orientation counselors and members of the dean of men's and dean of women's staffs to their annual Dink Debut, Sept. 16. One was found guilty of violat ing the University drinking regu lations, while the other was charged with disorderly conduct in a residence hall. The second student was also placed in disci plinary probation until June 1961. One eighth semester student will have his degree withheld indefinitely for writing fraudu lent letters to a prospective em ployer. A second eighth semester stu dent, charged with being disre spectful to a campus patrolman, was placed on disciplinary proba tion for the remainder of the se mester. Many of the students involved in these cases had received pre vious disciplinary penalties. The dean of men's office expressed alarm over the increasing disci plinar y problems. Additional shoplifting cases will be brought to the office next week, Dean Austin said.

In effect the Russians beat the United States to the draw here. The announcement of the So viet maneuver came as diplomat ic sources disclosed U.S. Ambas ador Henry Cabot Lodge is go ing to Washington for urgent weenkend conferences with Pres ident Eisenhower on the U.S. course now in the UN. Diplomatic informants said the Washington talks would pre pare Lodge's presentation of an Eisenhower plan for interna tional aerial surveillance in the wake of file summit-wrecking U 2 incident. The United States was reported planning to call next week for a meeting of the UN Security Coun cil to consider Eisenhower's pro posal. Khrushchev had threatened to request consideration of the U 2 case here but had been expected to wait until his return from the Paris summit via Communist East Germany to Moscow. Earlier yesterday, Khrushchev denounced, Eisenhower anew, calling him a thief and thunder ing about the dead summit con ference. Before 2000 newsmen from East and West, Khrushchev suggested it might be well to take alleged American agressors "by the scruff of the neck" and "give them a little shaking." Khrushchev blamed the Pres ident for the summit collapse. blasted his policy on intelli gence flights, accused him of de ceit and called a "fishy" friend. He asserted that the U 2 spy !plane incident, on which Eisen hower ignored his demands for an apology and punishment of the responsible Americans, convinced the Russians that the Berlin prob lem must be approached with "re solve and urgency."
