Diplomats speculated that Thant had felt that trie proposals m their original form were bound- to be unacceptable to the United Slates.

' These developments came as the United ' States stressed to Thant its desire for a speedy set tlement of the crij;i<S.

Rackley*s talk was sponsored by the East Halls Men’s Residence Council and the area Association of Women Student's Council. THE CORE COLLEGE would make the arts and sciences .equal with the professional and voca tional colleges which have been stressed at the University. Rpck ley said. The core college will contain three colleges, the College of Arts and Architecture.; the CoUege of Humanities and Social Sciences, and the College of Biological and Physical Sciences, Racklcy ex plained. One change, the College of Arts and Architecture, has already been completed, the -rest are in the discussion stage now, he said c Rackey said the other three proposals have been approved by President Eric A. Walker to be submitted for the faculty’s ap proval. Once the plans have been approved by the faculty, the ad ministration will then make a recommendation for the change to the Board of Trustees. The new College of* Arts and Architecture will officially go into effect at the beginning of the winter term.

In case of a sudden illness, they were told to be sure to inform their department head so that arrangements could be made for a substitute, Instructor. THEY WERE ALSO advised to “arrange for a kind of work to be done in classes those days that would provide' a special in centive for all students to be present.” The memo said instructors may find it helpful to remind their •tudents that this is a University regulation, not their's personally and that In one week they will be going home for a month.

SOVIET SOURCES said they regarded the removal of 42 Soviet missiles under U.S. naval inspec tion as the major concession and it is up to President Kennedy to pledge that the United States will not invade Cuba. The firm U S. attitude in the crisis was demonstrated further in Washington with the statement by a spokesman for the U.S. State Department that any buildtm of offensive naval facilities in Cuba would be regarded as a threat to the Western llemisphne •liberal arts college, with the ex ception of mathematics, he said. However, economics, psycholo gy and geography would he added to the proposed college, Rackley silid. Mathcmnlics, zoology nnd bot any would be included in the'Col lege of Blologieal and Physical Sciences as well as subject* re lated to this area. With the removal of zoology and botany, the College of Agri culture would become stronger in' the agricultural fields, he pointed out. “ RACKEY SAID this plan being proposed as the UnivetSily needs a simplicity of organisation which ran accommodate students from the freshman to the grad uate level .- With the new plan, a better organization will exist at the Uni versity that will be needed by 1970 when 25,000 students will be on campus whereas there arc now 15.000 plus here, he said.
