The action came shortly after the President sub mitted the request. Democratic Leader Mike Mansfield of Montana said he . probably would bring it up for Senate action Monday.

Congress must act by Tuesday midnight in order to avert a nationwide strike which could begin at one minute after midnight May 3, local time.

The students contend that the project is for immoral purposes and that it violates uni versity policy that research should be freely publishable. The results of "Spice Rack" are not publishable. The Daily Pennsylvanian said in an edi torial that Hiirnwell, 63, is "facing problems today that he probably didn't believe could exist when h l e assumed the presidency. Stu dents and faA.ulty are demanding a greater voice in policly decisions," the paper said. The editorial sugested that Dr. Barnwell, Who has been president 14 years, "think about stepping aside the near future for a younger man, a man who is a little closer in yea' s and outlook to the students for which the university exists." Harnweli had announced several moo ..s ago that the research would be conducted at the University City Science Center rather than at the University. The center is a joint venture by area universities and private in dustry, but Penn owns a majority of the stock. The demonstrators claim that since Penn owns most of the stock, their original argu ments still hold. The facility senate, which already has voted against permitting the project at Penn, is expected to consider the,.transfer of "Spice Rack' , to the ; science center at its Wednesday Fulbright said the United States is becoming more "bogged do - Wn" in . the Asian war and could face flareups in other parts of the world: But he did not assail the address it self.

The four-year program includes five terms at the University Park Campus (or three terms at a Commonwealth Campus and two at University Park) for basic general Ed t.tcation courses with emphasis on science and human development. Sixth Term Standing When students achieve 6th term stand ing, they; enroll at Allegheny General Hos pital. Pittsburgh, where clinical nursing Courses are taught. The basic students remain at the hospital for seven terms, until they return to University Park for graduation • A teaching staff of thirteen conducts the Program at the hospital. All hold either Inas tei's or doctoral degrees. Graduates of the program are eligible to take examinations leading to certification as Registered Nurses in Pennsylvania since the program is approved by the Pennsylvania State Board of Nurse Examiners. "The 'demand for nurses with both the RN and the professional baccalaureate degree far exceeds the supply," Dr. Treasure said. "Right now, there is an estimated shortage of 7,000 nurses with these qualifications in Pennsylvania alone; and expanding govern ment-financed medical services are contin ually increasing the need." , Dr. Treasure in Charge Dr. Treasure was named professor of pursing and head of the nursing program at the University An October, 1964.
