Newman
To Appear
Before SGA
Monroe Newman, chairman
of the Senate Committee on
Student Affairs, will appear
before SGA's committee of the
whole at 7 p.m. tonight in 203
HUB.
Newman will answer questions
on student government and its
status at the University but will
not tell the committee what
changes should be made - under
SGA reorganization, according to
Donald Clagett, SGA vice-presi
dent.
Glageit made the announce
ment of Newman's' visit after
being asked by the SCA com
mittee to report on the Senate
committee's general - opinion on"
reorganization.
Clagett said that Newman
again reinforced the Senate com
mittee's feeling presented in a
letter •to the Assembly last week.
The present SGA constitution
is indaequate, Clagett said, and
the Senate committee's ultima
tum in the letter that the SGA
officers and the senior class pres
ident be elected this spring is "of
ficial and binding."
The main criticism of the pres
ent government is that there are
"vague constituencies," Clagett
said.
At the SGA meeting last
night, no decision was reached
on how to dissolve the prob
lem of constituencies through
representation on Assembly.
Four main ways of representa
tion class president, student
council representatives, class rep
resentatives and living areas
were planned for discussion.
The committee favored class
presidents sitting on Assembly
and was against student council
representatives having official
seats.
No decision was reached on
class representation. The corn
mittee decided to adjourn until
tonight so that James Sloane,
freshman class president, could
report on the opinion of the Fresh
man Advisory Board before a fi
nal straw vote is taken.
Sloane asked for adjournment
on the grounds that the advisory
board would express student
opinion on class representation.

Prof Invited to Belgium

participate in a meeting of the
International Committee on Elec

Belgium, the last week of April.
He will present a paper en

The document, read by . Chief
Justice Moshe Landau, accused'
Eichmann of criminal responsibil

•rnor, in presenting the report
of his special committee on edlica-
I
Lion to the legislature Monday,
said the General Assembly should
"close the present' business, in
cluding pending bills' and then
take up the education report as a
separate entity."
This means, Haratin ex
plained, that the Governor is
asking the legislature to act on
the legislative program that is
now before the Assembly. This
program, presented by the gov
ernor in January includes a 12-
, month recommendation for
Penn State of $17.1 million (or.
$18.5 million for a 13-month
fiscal year).
The governor recommended
that after the floor is cleared of
the present program, the legisla
ture then "act on the recommen
dations and attack the problems
presented by the report,' Haratin
said.
When the goverrior presented
his proposed budget in January
he said his recommendations for
education were tentative, "pend
ing the report from the special
committee on education."
This committee reported last
week, recommending a program
to improve education which would
add $361.8 million to the total
cost by 1969-70.
However. Haratin said, in
stead of planning any changes
in his original budget recom
mendations, the governor is
asking the legislature to act on
:he present program and then
work on the report's recom
mendations.
When asked if this meant that

"We must divorce the current
legislative program from the long
range program of the report,"
Haratin said, adding, "You cn't
change the program in a day or a
week or a month."

As to whether or • not any
changes in specific recommenda
tions might be made in time for
the next fiscal year, Ilaratin said,
"the time it will take is entirely
up to the legislature."

Before hearing the indictment,
he spoke his only word of the day

of saying yes, when he was asked
to answer to his name.
• Then, before he could plead to
the charge, his attorney, Dr. Rob

of the judges" might be preju

1950 law covering Nazis and Nazi
collaborators did not apply be

Servatius, noting that Eich
