Fraternity pledges take sharp drop

JIM HIVELY

ByALBAN SALAMAN The percentage of freshmen men

pledging fraternities -- a statistic which remained nearly constant throughout the 1960's -- has plum- metted sharply with the coming of the new decade.

The number of freshmen accept- ing fraternity bids has dropped at least 33 percent this year, statistics released yesterday by the assistant dean of men for fraternities indicated.

Only 330 --or 26 percent-of the roughly 1,260 male freshmen have joined a fraternity so far. An addi- tional 20 to 70 are expected to pick up bids next week bringing up the percentage to at most 32 percent of the class, Martin Duffy, the assistant dean, estimated.

Last year, 580 male students — or 48 percent of the freshmen class-- pledged fraternities. The percentage

had remained about the same since 1960.

Duffy attributed the large drop to new alternatives in housing, such as the Superblock housing complex, which are opening up to next year's sophomore class, and to lack of popularity of the fraternity concept of group life.

The assistant dean said that in previous years the number of freshmen joining fraternities was "inflated" because of the unavail- ibiliry of housing alternatives.

Two years ago sophomore men wer first allowed to live in off- campus apartments. Until then, sophomores were only permitted to live in the dorms or in fraternity houses.

Duffy said that this year's freshmen have four ''viable choices -- dorms, a fraternity, superblock, or

an appartment." Houses with the most significant

plunge, Duffy indicated, are those currently plagued with relocation problems. He said nine houses -- eight in temporary quarters and one. Phi Sigma Delta, which merged with Zeta Beta Tau last year -- offered a total of only 23 bids this year, in comparision with last year's 200.

Duffy said he will encourage a regrouping of the fraternity system into "20 strong, financially and socially^ fraternities" for the next decade. He said that 20 strong fraternities would be the best way to support the approximate 350 students a year he predicts will join fraternities.

He said beginning next week he will contact certain fraternity presidents

Wolfman appointed law dean; trustees place limits on term

By JOAN RIEDER The University trustees Friday

set a precedent by setting a tenure for the new dean of the Law School.

Their choice for the job is Uni- versity law professor Bernard Wolf- man, who will serve a seven-year term "at the pleasure of the president."

Friday's decision marked the first time the trustees had not elected a deaa for an unlimited tenure.

The idea of a tenured term had been proposed by a Law School committee which was acting at the sug- gestion of the Law School faculty. The committee, chaired by Law Pro- fessor Louis Schwartz, had called for a term of not more than 10 years.

Wolfman, who has taught at the University since 1963, is eligible for reappointment to a maximum of one more term. All deans serve "at the pleasure of the president."

Columbia faculty votes to ban secret research

The Columbia University Senate, by a nearly unanimous voice vote, adopted regulations Friday which will prevent Columbia from participating in classified research projects for either the government or private industry.

Under the regulations, faculty members will no longer be able to take on classified research projects in which Columbia would be directly or indirectly involved.

Existing classiiied contracts, the

regulations declare, shall be "modi- fied accordingly or terminated as soon as possible, but not later than one year after enactment by the Uni- versity."

At Pennsylvania all classified research has been phased out in accordance with resolutions of the Committee for Implementing Re- search Policy, adopted in the spring of 1967. These proposals calling for the end of secret research, were later


Wolfman will take over from retiring dean Jefferson B. Fordham on July 1. Fordham, who has served as dean since 1952, will return to the Law School classroom.

The nine-mar. Law School select- ion committee had submitted Wolf- man's name to President Harnwell in December.

Wolfman, who recevedhis undergraduate and law degrees from the University, was in private practice for 15 years as a partner of the Philadelphia law firm Wolf, Block, Schorr, and Solis-Cohen.

Wolfman is presently chairman of the University Senate, composed of all faculty members ranking assistant professor or higher; chairman of the powerful steering committee of the University Council, the highest governing body under the trustees; and chairman of the Task Force on Governance, which was established in the fall of 1968 to recom- mend improvements in all facets of University governance.

Wolfman became a figure of controversy last fall, when he took a firm stand against the University's making political pronouncements.


Administrators receive awards President Harnwell and Pro-

vost Goddard were presented with the annual Alumni Awards of Merit Saturday at the traditional Found- ers' Day luncheon held in theUni- versity Museum. Harnwell, who plans to retire from the presidency in September, was given a citation which reads in part "to Gaylord P. Harnwell who has led the Uni- versity through seventeen of the most demanding years in the history of higher education . . . and has made these the proudest years of all for Pennsylvania and its alumni." Goddard, retiring his post of provost this year, was honored both for his contribution as an administrator and as an alumnus of the University.

By JOHN RILEY For the second time in two years,

students have been rocked by an increase in rental rates for all Univer- sity operated residence halls.

In the most recent episode of the continuing saga of the rising cost of going to school, the finance committee of the board of trustees unanimously approved Friday a rent increase of $50 per year for the mens* dormitories and Hill Hall, and $100 per year for all other University living quarters.

Sources close to the finance committee also intimated that announce- ment of a tuition rise is imminent.

The finance committee also approved a previously announced rent schedule for the superblock, the new undergraduate housing complex, in which rents will average about $85 per month.

The new rent increase will raise the cost of living in Hill Hall and the mens' dormitories to $620 per year, and in other residences to about $775 per year.

Edwin Ledwell, director of residence, denied that the increases should be interpreted as "subsidies" for the superblock, saying instead that they were needed to decrease the $700,000 deficit at which University residences operated last year.

Ledwell said he "just couldn't be sure" whether the rent increases would continue in future years.

The planned increases are less in Hill Hall and the mens' dormitories, Ledwell said, because of the short term mortgage plan and higher operating costs of housekeeping units, which make up the bulk of the other University living quarters.

The director of residence noted that, because of their high op- erational cost, he would like to close down older residences, such as Wal- nut Hall, South Hall, the Harrison, Sergeant Hall, Chestnut Hall, and the Roosevelt Hotel, next year.

He said the residence office would like to keep open a couple of housekeeping operations until they saw how the superblock was working out, men- tioning Spruce Hall and The Berk-

shire. The meeting of the finance com-

mittee in the Wistar Institute auditorium also heard reports from four subcommittees to the budget committee, formed to consider measures that might help the University wea- ther the storm of its financial crisis.

The subcommittee on admissions and financial aid, chaired by Dr. Robert Maddin, director of theSchool of Metallurgy and Materials Science, had recommended a stasis for next year in the size of the freshman class, and a "modest" increase in the number of transfers accepted by the University.

Maddin said transfer students tra- ditionally tended to pay a higher percentage of their costs and use less financial aid than other students, and thus the recommendation for iheir increase.

Yale faces lonely probation; Penn only offers 'sympathy'

By MARK PEARLMAN and ROBERTSAVETT

The University's main response to Yale's two-year suspens ion from na t i o na 1-collegiate-championship - athletic events will merely be to offer her Ivy sister "sympathy."

The University's leading athletic administrator indicated Friday he has abandoned the one-for-all, all-for- one Ivy League position which prevailed four years ago in the 1.6

controversy between the Ancient Eight and the National Collegiate Athletic Association.

"I feel more of an obligation to two boys than I do to the league," declared Fred Shabel, director of recreation andinter-co 11 egiate athletics, when asked what action the University might take if Yale chooses to withdraw from the NCAA.

"We are an autonomous institution like Yale is," said Shabel. "At what

stage does the league become the dictating power?"

Last Thursday night, the NCAA slapped the New Haven school with a two-year probation for permitting Jack Langer, a 6-8 junior from Fort Lee, N.J., to play on its basketball team.

This past summer, Langer had participated in the MaccabiahGames, often called "the Jewish Olympics,"

Q-partite and science center arrange talks

By BOB HOFFMAN Representatives of the Quadripar-

tite Commission, on University- Community Development and officials of the UniversityCityScienceCenter, meeting Friday in an attempt to come to agreement on the center's position on the issue of low cost housing, made tentative arrangements to enter into formal negotiations beginning late this week.

Paul J. Cupp, chairman of the center's board of trustees as well as a University trustee, is expected to ask the board at its meeting tomorrow to authorize the creation of a committee to negotiate with the quadripartite commission dele- gation.

The commission's housing plan for Renewal Area 3 had asked the science center to relinquish 3.4 acres of its present land allotment for community housing, and the science center, before softening its position somewhat in recent days, had indicated that it planned no such action.

The trustees of the University, also meeting Friday afternoon, en- dorsed the prospect of negotiations. The board also confirmed the resolution adopted earlier by its executive board endorsing in vague terms the principles of the quadripartite plan. The trustees, several of whom appear on the board of directors of the science center, also urged the center to "expedite to the extent possible a response to the quadripartite commission" concerning the housing proposals.

Trustees authorize funds to start hospital expansion

By MARK I. SCHLESINGER

The second stage of a $63 million renovation and building project for the University's hospital complex was approved Friday by the finance committee of the board of trustees.

The authorization of approximately one-and- a-quarter million dollars will be used to begin preliminary work on the construction site and to prepare working drawings for the expansion of the University hospital.

The hospital expansion plan includes the reconstruction of part of the University's hospital and the building of a facility to service HUP and the Children's Hospital of Philadel- phia. A report released Friday by an outside consultant group predicts completion of the facility by July, 1975.

When completed, the facility will be the

largest of its kind in the city. It will include a new, 11 story building for the University hospital and a facility for sharing services such as linen, pharmacy, and kitchen with Children's Hospital.

The report also examines various means of funding the project. It states that a majority of the funds should be made available by private contributions. The balance of the funding would have to come from some other source.

The Pennsylvania Higher Education Facilities Authority is considered by the report to be the best means of financing the project. It is given a rating of 78 on an 80 point scale. General State Authority financing is given a

CONGRESS RECONVENES TO CONSIDER EDUCATION APPROPRIATIONS

WASHINGTON—Picking up where it left off when it quit for Christmas, Congress returns to work today trying to give the Nixon administration $1 billion more than it wants for education. With President Nixon drawing the battle line by threatening to veto the $19.7 billion appropriation bill, that issue was certain to dominate the first days of the second session of the 91st Congress. On Thursday, the President takes center stage with his first State of the Union Address, delivered before a joint Congressional session from the House chamber and broadcast "live" to the nation. He was expected to make it a "quality of life" speech putting much stress on issues of the environment and pollution. Some other issues that promised to occupy Congress this session were Vietnam, military spending, reduced and "realistic" penalties for possession anduse of marijuana, and hearings and possibly legislation on broad draft reform, still an issue after the lottery.

U THANT ARRIVES IN NIGERIA FOR TALKS ON AID AND RELIEF

LAGOS — United Nations Secretary General Thant arrived yesterday for talks with Nigerian leaders on relief, aid and reconstruction in defeated Biafra. Lagos radio blasted relief agencies, accusing some of supplying Biafran forces with arms and ammunition during the war. Thant, who flew to Lagos from neighboring Ivory Coast after winding up a 10 nation tour of Africa, was met at the airport by the Nigerian Chief of State, Maj. Gen. Yakubu Gowon who invited him to Nigeria. Thant and Gowon were to talk over dinner last night and again today. Government sources said they would discuss relief operations to feed and house Biafran war refugees and how Gowon intends to bring a quick return to normalcy for Africa's most popu- lous country. The 30-month-long civil war ended last Monday with the uncondi- tional surrender of the secessionist eastern region that called itself Biafra.

WALLACE BLASTS ADMINISTRATION FOR DESEGRATION RULING

WASHINGTON — George C. Wallace, a third party Presidential candidate in 1968, accused the administration yesterday of "destroying" the nation's public school system. Unless President Nixon alters this policy, he said, "he is going to end up being a one-term president." The former Alabama Governor and leader of the American Independent Party urged Nixon to announce in his State of the Union Address next Thursday that the administration supports the "freedom of choice" concept in education despite a Supreme Court ruling that it tends to preserve segregation. Wallace, noting that many political observers have credited Nixon with devising a "southern strategy" that enabled him to win the Presidency, said meetings already were planned to formulate a "counter-southern strategy that will spell defeat" for Nixon in 1972 if he does not take immediate action to counter recent judicial dese- gregation orders and the implementation of them.

CALLEY'S ATTORNEYS SEEK DISMISSAL OF MURDER CHARGES

FT. BENNING, Ga. ~ Attorneys for 1st Lt. William Laws Calley Jr. argue tomorrow for dismissal of charges that the young infantry officer cold-bloodedly murdered 109 civilians at the South Vietnamese hamlet of My Lai. One of Calley* s attorneys, George W. Latimer, who is seeking to have the trial moved to federal court rather than have Calley judged by a general court martial, has one motion for dismissal before the court, alleg- ing prejudicial statements by public officials, including President Nixon, have preempted hope of a fair trial. Another motion calls for dismissal because of prejudicial evidence released by the news media; and still another because Calley's constitutional rights were allegedly violated when his Sept. 5, 1969 discharge date was extended while the My Lai investigation continued. Also pending before Kennedy is a motion demanding the government specify the circumstances surrounding each of the 109 reported mur- ders and state, for the first time, whether Calley is the alleged trigger man or gave the orders in his role as platoon leader.

Woman claiming to be Anastasia, daughter of last Czar, goes to West German court

By United Press International

KARLSRUHE, Germany — The riddle of Anastasia, which began 50 years ago when a now aging woman who claims to be the youngest daughter of the last Russian Czar was fished from a Berlin Canal, goes before the West German Supreme Court today.

Mrs. Anna AndersonManahan, 69, is asking the nation's highest judges to invalidate a lower court ruling that she is not the Grand Duchess Anasta- sia of Russia. At stake is a fortune said to be worth $100 million.

The money allegedly was placed in a London bank by Czar Nicholas II for his daughters but the existence of the fortune has never been confirmed.

If the Supreme Court rejects Mrs. Manahan's appeal, it will mean the end of her legal battle for recogni- tion as the last of the imperial Romanoffs.

If her appeal is upheld, it will mean the Hamburg Appeals Court that ruled her claim false on Feb. 18, 1967, must hear her case again.

John Manahan of Charlottesville, Va., the former history professor she married in December, 1968, has asked the court to excuse her attendance. He said she is mourning the death of Gleb Botkin, son of the court physician to the Romanoff family and a longtime friend.

Mrs. Manahan has fought for re- cognition as Grand Duchess Anastasia since she was pulled out of a Berlin canal Feb. 17, 1920, after a suicide attempt.

Mrs. Manahan's most implacable opponents in court are close relatives of the Romanoffs, the former royal house of Hesse. They say she is really Franziska Schanzkowski, a Polish peasant girl, and the scars she bears were received in an ex- plosion at a munitions factory in which she worked.

Mrs. Manahan claims the scars

were caused by the bullets and bayon- ets of a Bolshevik execution squad that put the royal family to death at Ekaterienberg July 17, 1918.

The Hamburg court, while refus- ing to identify Mrs. Manahan defin- itely as Franziska Schanzkowski ruled her scars were not necessarily inflicted by the Czar's executioners.

The court said one of the Roman- off children might have been rescued from the massacre but Mrs.

Manahan's tale of a flight from Rus- sia with an Alexander Tschaikowsky and his brother was improbable.

The Hamburg judges also said Mrs. Manahan's Russian speech was inadequate for a person such as Ana- stasia and her German more than could be expected of a Czar's daughter. Her copious descriptions of people and places could have been ob- tained from any number of sources, they ruled.

Mrs. Manahan's lawyer. Baron Von Stackelberg, alleges the Hamburg court placed too heavy a burden of proof on his client and not enough on those who claim she is not Anastasia.

He is asking the Karlsruhe court to order a rehearing of the case.

The Supreme Court cannot rule on Mrs. Manahan's identity, hear wit- nesses or take new evidence. It can only decide whether the last trial was properly conducted.

Treasury official asserts Nixon's goal to impede present inflationary trend

By JACK GORMAN

Dr. Char Is E. Walker. Under- secretary of the Treasury, assured members of the Organized Classes of Alumni of the University Friday night at their annual dinner that although "we (the Nixon administration) have not been able to convince businessmen...we are determined to stop this inflation."

Despite headlines in a Philadelphia newspaper announcing that the United States had entered a recession, Wal- ker told reporters prior to his talk on "The State of the Economy: The Treasury Point of View" that "thus far the experience is encouraging," in the battle against inflation. He criticized the newspaper headlines as being an extreme statement of the case, but declined to guarantee that the administration will be able to prevent a recession.

Speaking about Friday's issuance of a Commerce Department preliminary report indicating that the Gross National product of the fourth quarter of 1969 showed no increase over the third quarter, Walker said "clearly the economy had cooled" but added that the possibility of a recession is still a serious problem.

"If we can maintain a strong fiscal policy then the case for easing monetary policy would be strong," he said.

Walker, who received the Ph.D. degree from the University in 1955, argued that criticism of the administration's fight against inflation as being a policy of gradualism is un- founded. "By a gradual policy we meant that we wanted to gradually

wmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmammm

bring the ecomony to an acceptable level without causing a recession or excess unemployment."

Instead of engaging in the usual "frenzied activity" of the first one hundred days, he said, the president has made the early stages of his administration a "time for calmness, a time for deliberation, and a time for

Bernard Wolfman:

precision and the unexpected

come to the law dean's office

ALAN SHELBY

Wolfman (Continued from page 1)

Although a supporter of the Viet- nam peace movement, at the Oct. 29 meeting of the Faculty Senate, in a strong and at times impassioned speech, he urged the assembled pro- fessors rxft to take an official stand condemning the war. On a 265-140' vote, the Senate resolved not to consider a resolution which condemned the American military involvement in Vietnam.

The 45-year-old professor, a well known expert on tax legislation, served as a consultant on tax policy for the Treasury Department from 1963 to 1968, and as a member of the advisory group to the Commis- sioner of Internal Revenue, Sheldon Cohen, in 1966-67.

In 1968, he chaired the task force on tax reform and tax policy for Sen. Eugene McCarthy, D-Minn.,De- mocratic peace candidate for president. Wolfman last week termed his experience working with the Mc- Carthy forces as "fantastic." He commented last week he believed that the McCarthy campaign, although unsuccessful, was an extremely influential force on theAmericanpolitical scene.

Alumni dinner (Continued from page 2)

review of the Great Society legislation." He predicted that because 1970 is an election year "you're going to be hearing a great deal more discussion from Washington of a partisan nature."

Walker, a Texan, spiced his talk with several Texas jokes, many at the expense of former president Lyndon B. Johnson. "I realize that when a Texan speaks to you about credibility, you have some doubts about the credibility of his talk on credibility."

On a lighter note. Walker said that after reviewing course offerings and requirements at the Wharton School with Dr. Willis J. Winn, its dean, "we can thank our lucky stars that we got in and out when we did. I'm not sure I could get in today."

Walker defined the problem of inflation as simply "too much money chasing too few goods." The solu-

tion, he said, will be to balance the budget, end the war in Vietnam, and adhere to a strict monetary policy. All other domestic problems, he explained "are, inseparably bound up with these problems of economy."

* "We are*gbing"to*aothTngsyouare' going to disagree with," Walker predicted, "I expect that looking at the affluence of this audience there are already things that you disagree with concerning the Federal Income Tax Reform bill of 1969." Walker concluded by asking that the administration be given a chance to halt inflation not only for individual prosperity, but also for "moral and spiritual goals."

The Organized Classes of Alumni of the University is a group of dele- gates from past classes. Their traditional dinner at the Barclay Hotel also marked the beginning of term of Donald M. Solenberger as president.

By PHYLLIS KANISS

At first glance, Bernie Wolfman is more apt to be taken for a friendly suburban orthodontist than the newly- appointed dean of an Ivy League Law School.

A graduate of Philadelphia's own renowned all-male Central High School and presently a resident of fashionable Elkins Park, Wolfman might seem an unlikely successor to the stately silver-haired Southern gentleman who will be vacating the post July 1. One look at Mr. Wolf- man's impressive achievements, however, would dispel any doubts about the competence of the husband- father-next-door. A highly respected tax lawyer, he comes to the position of dean with a background of having worked as a consultant to both the U£. Treasury and the Internal Revenue Service.

During his seven-year tenure as law professor at the University, Wolf-, rrujn quickly climbed from law school representative to the University Council to the chairman 61 the Faculty Senate and the Council's influential steering committee. In between meetings of the Council and the Senate and the Task Force on University Governance (of which he is also chairman) and theCommittee to Select a new University president, (of which he was a member), he even managed to write a lengthy casebook on the federal income taxation of business enterprise.

A friendly, outgoing man, Wolf- man always has ready a kidding though technically-worded response to formalities. Some of the stuffy, officialness of Council meetings seems to dissipate whenBernie some- times- unorthodoxly relays the steering committee's latest doings.

Obviously enjoying his position as chairman of this committee and that council he runs things orderly and with good spirits. Highly logical, his legal mind exhibits the kind of thinking necessary to write a casebook with subdivisions which go right down to the Roman numerals "iii."

His honest, straightforward man- ner can be seen easily as he re- marks offhandedly, that, yes, he'd really like it if his law colleagues let him win at tennis next year when he is dean.

The kind of man you'd expect to be full of funny, personal anecdotes, he is surprisingly unwilling to talk about himself. Whereas his voice fairly booms when expressing his ideas at one or another meeting, in the privacy of his wood-panelled burnt-orange office, he speaks quietly of "not being very glamorous." Like most busy, important men, he seems to have become more ,and more, ap- preciative of doing the kind of things that require no other title than an academic degree. Now, as in the past, what Bernard Wolfman very much enjoys is teaching and writing.

What does he do in the little spare time that may remain after all his responsibilities? "Nothing exciting," he answers. "I spend time with my wife and three children, of course. Just live, I guess."

Ask Bernie Wolfman for an opinion, though, and the answer will come in well-worded and unmistak- ably uncertain terms. Looking back on last fall University Council meetings, the first with student in attendance, Wolfman said he doubts future sessions will be as emotion- packed as the ones dealing with the

issue of the University's taking a stand on the war. He said he feels the student-faculty relationship on the Council should not be judged by the fall meetings, since the war issue was a particularly voluble one and also because students and faculty had to get used to the new environment of working together.

Wolfman, as chairman of the Faculty Senate, stresses the im- portance of faculty members recog- nizing their responsibility in shaping the educational policies of the Uni- versity. Though refraining from men- tioning anything like faculty apathy, he does say "somebody has to take an interest in what's going on."

Speaking about last week's leak of the University's presidential choices, Wolfman said he was "dis- mayed at the speculation. It is un- fortunate that newspapers find it necessary to publish something like that when it is in the best interests of the University to wait."

The unexpected is often what we get from Mr. Wolfman, who more than once has caught his listeners off-guard. A story which will godown in the annals of the Council sees Wolfman strongly defending his position on the war stand issue. Though passionately urging the body to refrain from committing the Uni- versity to a moral ruling, he never- theless emphasized his own feelings against the war. Telling of his hatred for the killing and his disgust with all the waste, he concluded,

"And believe me, I would be marching in Washington on Saturday (Nov. 15) myself, if it weren't my son's bar mitzvah."

Letters to the editor Commentary

UPI - A disappointment By FEMIODEKUNLE

The article on page two of the January 14 issueof the Daily Pennsyl- vanian — "Biafra bows to federal troops: Jubilant Nigerians dance in the streets" — is a great disappointment. This article, written by UPI and published by the Daily Pennsyl- vanian is, by and large, a bunch of misinformations and misinterpreta- tions of facts. Consequently, the article is bound to mislead the readers, most of whom don't know much with regard to their knowledge of Nigeria. Also, it has given a wrong and insulting impression of my people (the Yorubas) in words that are so repugnant that if 1 had the money I would institute a civil suit against both the and publisher, (sic.)

Though this misleading article might have arisen out of spite for federal victory over the rebels because attacks on federal unified Nigeria and pleas for a balkanized Nigeria under the guise of humani- tarian motives have been very common in this country, I don't intend to go into such a discussion here. It is of no use now, the rebellion has been crushed in spite of super-powerful enemies who would like to see Nigeria broken into tiny puppet states easy to influence and exploit; also, the concept of ONE NIGERIA has prevailed.

My intention, therefore, is to cor- rect about five of UPI's misleading statements and rightly interpret those facts it has intentionally, I guess, mis- interpreted. This is not only in fair- ness to my country and my people, it is also of advantage to the knowledge of the readers of this daily.

First, that "...the war was spawned by years of religious strife between the Ibos and the re- dominantly Moslem Hausas of Northern Nigeria", is not true. Nigerians are not much less "civilized" than Americans to the extent of going on a large scale civil war on the basis of religion, especially imported religions like Moslem and Christianity. In terms of practice and depth of belief, most Nigerans, Moslems and Xtians alike, arei.jarly as indifferent to religion as Americans.

The fact of the case is that the northern Hausas (mostly Moslems) and eastern Ibos (mostly Christians) formed the first federal coalition government after independence (1960) and threw the western coastal Yorubas (mostly Xtians) into opposition because the Yorubas are smarter and more educated and it was feared that if it was part of the coalition, its learned people would have more than a fair share of the national cake. After the 1964 federal elections, political moods changed, the northern Hausas who controlled the coalition admitted the Yorubas into the government.

Embittered by their loss of power, the Ibo leaders engineered I bo off icers in the military to seize power. Con- sequently, Hausa and Yoruba leaders were killed, and Ibo military general became Head of State, abolished the autonomy of the states and started a trend that would have entrenched the

Ibos in power without the mandate of the entire federation.

But six months later, the officers from the other tribes successfully organized a counter military take- over. Overthrown, the Ibo leaders declared secession, taking along with them two minority tribes that have constantly complained against Ibo domination. By the Nigerian constitution, it is treason and rebellion to declare secession with regard to any part of the country. Besides the fact that other minority groups were being forced along by the secessionists, the generality of the Ibo people were being misled by a few power-hungry Ibo leaders. After many peaceful appeals to avoid a civil war, the federal government could not help moving in to defend the unity of the federation. It was this trend, not religious strife as the UPI wants you to believe, that led to the Civil War.

Second, the UPI claims that Russian military aid to federal forces "played a major role in Biafra's defeat." While many white mercenaries fought the Biafrans, no single foreigner fought for Nigeria. More important however is the point that if it is true that Russian aid played a major role in Biafra's defeat, the Arabs ought to have defeated the Israelis in the 6- day war.

The maior factors in Biafra's defeat are 1) the determination of Nigerians to prevent the balkanization of their country, to maintain its unity in spite of "humanitarians". The government never enlisted people into the Army. Everyday, thousands of young able men were refused ac- ceptance at recruiting stations because the Army, having grown from about 8,000 to 160,000 since the beginning of the war had more men than it needed; and 2) the general population of the Ibo people had gradually come to realize the propaganda and deception of the rebel leader. He sent his wife and children abroad long ago, he rode in a limousine and smoked imported Benson & Hedges while the people were sent to the war fronts to die just because he wanted power. You can only fool a whole people for so long, not forever.

Third, the UPI raises questions as to "whether this flimsy alliance will stand up against the strains and stresses of victory", in a way togive readers the impression of hopeless- ness with regard to the future of Nigeria. I don't intend to go into this except to remark that if America sucessfully waged through the storm after its civil war, I don't see why Nigeria will not overcome a similar problem. Ibos are Nigerians, they are not Biafrans, and I don't know of any Biafrans or a state called Biafra. We are brothers, not "enemies". And the question of maintaining a tripar- tite federal balance is no more relevant because now Nigeria has 12 states not 3.

Fourth, the UPI describes the three major Nigerian tribes inade- quately, to use a mild word. Now, I am a Nigerian and before I came here last Septe^^r for my graduate work, I had .take., many courses on

Nigerian peoples. I have lived and worked with both Hausa and Ibo people, and I am in a better position to de- scribe my countrymen than the UPI. Stereotyping might be inefficient, but it is an easy and standardized way of making generalizations about peoples.

The Hausas: UPI says they are powerful and warlike. All I know is that the Hausaman is a Moslem, he is very honest and straightforward in his dealings with others and he believes whatever you tell him. He is also very kind, brotherly, and easily satisfied. BUT, the moment he dis- covers you already told him a lie, he never believes you any longer. He can also engage in a cut-throat life and death struggle with you if you are a liar or if you insult him. He also has little or no Western education.

The Ibos: UPI says they are the most gifted, best educated and most ambitious of all Nigerians. This is not true. The typical Ibo man is im- pulsive and very aggressive; easily enraged, he can kill you in a moment of annoyance. By the standard of Nigeria's aggressive and competitive tribalism, the Ibo man is still re- garded as too greedy. He believes in the use of force to achieve his end. In terms of ability to endure sufferings, the Ibo man is "gifted". And though educated, they are latecomers to educational scene in Nigeria when com- pared with the Yorubas.

The Yorubas: UPI says they are sluggish and easy-going. This is also not true. The typical Yoruba man is very smart and cunning. He is a "diplomat" and he takes to force ONLY as a final resort. In terms of urbanization before western influence, scholars of anthropology and urban sociology have works to convince the UPI that the Yorubas were living in urban towns before the first white man came to the coast of Africa.

Being on the coast, they were the first contacts of the white mis- sionaries, businessmen and educa- tors, and therefore, they have been leading the Ibos and Hausas in terms of the number of intellectuals and general literacy of the population. The Yorubas constitute more than 50% of the federal judges, of the federal service, of University intellectuals, of University students both in Nigeria and in overseas universities, of private practicing attorneys, medical doctors and businessmen. Of the five universities in Nigeria, three have Yorubas as their presidents, all of these before the Ibos decided to break away. And throughout the civil war, the Yoruba officers distinguished themselves as outstanding because they liberated many more rebel held towns and villages (with a minimum of casualities) than did the so-called "powerful and warlike" Hausas.

Five, the UPI describes Nigeria as a federation created "out of a half- dozen ill assorted regions". I expect the UPI to know better. Nigeria is no less ill assorted than Britain or even the United States with its Italian, Jewish, Irish, Mexican, Puerto- Rican, English, Black, Indian etcetera peoples.

TWELVE PERCENT Sir: In an age of "credibility

gaps," your headline, "12 percent loan eases University moneycrisis," must surely qualify as incredulous. The details of the article suggest rather an "increase" in the money crisis incurred by this loan.

Details of University finances have always been complicated. Those who felt that such abstruse matters were necessarily beyond their competence must now conclude otherwise. The matter is quite clear: the University which runs the Wharton School has obviously heard -- or practiced — precious little of what it teaches.

It is time we received a full accounting of University finances, including the rate of return from endowments. True enough, as trea- surer Gordon says, when one figures the "compensating balance," a twelve percent loan is not too much higher than 10.6 percent — the difference being $56,000 — but why 12% in the first place? Mr. Day, as Chairman of the University Board of Trustees, surely knows the financial picture. As Chairman of the First Penn- sylvania Bank, did he judge this picture to warrant a 12% rate? If so, what does this tell us about Mr. Day's stewardship as Chairman of the Trustees?

We could conveniently lay all the trouble to the fickle gentlemen fid- dling in the State Legislature. Their $6 millions could have spared us this draconian interest rate. Unfortu- nately, the University will suffer a similar crisis in April, despite the first loan, if the State does not resolve its budget.

Apparently, the gentlemen at First Pennsylvania have little faith in the Legislature. They have even less faith in the University's fiscal practices, despite Mr. Day's eminent position and Mr. Gordon's facile ex- planations. But bankers are supposed to be conservative, not stupid.

THIS IS A TRUE STORY

Sir: Two days ago my purse was stolen. At first I was just annoyed that I had lost a few dollars, credit

cards, and some I.D's, the usual crap. But slowly a horrifying realiza- tion dawned; I had no identification — no fnatric card, license, U. of P. charge card, Social Security card, not even a library card — nothing. I had nothing to prove to anyone who I was. I was a piece of blank paper. If some one was to ask me my name, what could I say? I had no proof of who I was, nothing to reassure people I was real. I might be some one else. Suddenly I started having doubts myself. No longer could I whip out my photo- I.D. and be reassured that the picture that went with the name was me. I had lost not only my purse, but my personality.

I panicked. I asked a friend if she would sign a note saying that I was who I thought I was. She just laughed. I begged. "At least you know you're room III-J-13," she said heartlessly. But even this small hope was dashed; my keys were lost too. Another thought hit me; not only was I not a name, I wasn't even a number; I had lost my Social Security card, my "student identification number." Even the computers wouldn't know me. Reduced to babbling despair, on the verge of schizophrenia, I had a de- sparate idea. I tore off my coat and looked at the name tag : "Sandra Appleby." What a blow! I knew for sure I wasn't Sandra Appleby; she lived a few doors away.

In desperation, I was reduced to going to the Registrar to get a new matric card, with visions of the clerk informing me that I needed a matric card to get a matric card.

The lady at the desk asked me if I had any identification," just so we know you're the right person." I emptied my pockets.

"That Drop-and Add form will do," she said picking it up. I died. It was a form that a friend had asked my to drop off at the office for her. It said "Karen Rosene," whom I most certainly wasn't. I grinned guiltily and tried to look like I wasn't a Karen Rosene. The lady looked at me dubiously, but finally gave me a new card. The elation I felt as I left is not to be described. At last I could stop search- ing for my identity. I felt like a new person.

HALF OF A HALF

Sir: The very first sentence of the front page article by Alban Salaman on Wednesday, January 14 belied that article's headline: "Faculty favors Vietnam Withdrawal." The article reveals that somewhat less than half of the faculty returned the personal opinion poll referred to, and of those who returned it "nearly one half . . . favor 'immediate withdrawal. . .' "

The day that "nearly one-half' of somewhat less than one-half (which makes almost one-quarter) of any given electoral body forms a consensus of opinion, let L.B.J. know about it.

One expects more careful editing from The Daily Pennsylvanian on an issue as important as this.

MICK AND SEXINESS

Sin We would like to protest the small-mindedness and hypocrisy re- vealed in the reviews' of the Rolling Stones' concert printed in 34th Street and in Windfall. The reviewers, no- minally male, obviously have no con- ception of basic female needs, and their idea of sexiness is limited to the behavior of certain dogs in front of the library. They have reduced what was to any red-blooded female a deeply moving, timeless religious experience to the mechanical gratifi- cation of a one-night stand. Anyone who could survive the Stones' concert without being emotionally drain- ed is frigid. It is a sad measure of Western Civilization when young American males, supposedly respon- sible spokesmen, intellectualize a- purely mystical phenomenon like Mick Jagger. Despite the distortions explicit in these articles, we have every confidence that the young Ame- rican female will not be deterred in her relentless pursuit of freedom, happiness, Mick Jagger, and all he stands for.

With righteous indignation,

Fine Arts studio to fight pollution

By DAVID COHEN The pollution of our environment will be the focus of a studio recently or-

ganized by a group of graduate students in Fine Arts to investigate the problem as it exists in the Philadelphia area.

The efforts of the students will be coordinated with the nationwide environmental teach-in scheduled for April 22. This campus-oriented response to the pollution crisis was initiated by Sen. Gaylord Nelson (D-Wis.) last January and has since received widespread support. It will feature rallies, speeches, workships, seminars and community action projects at universities across the country.

The studio at the Fine Arts School will be under the supervision of Prof. Ian McHarg, chairman of the department of landscape architecture and regional planning. Noting that the department

rating of 75, while a H.E.W. -F.H.A. insured loan is considered a third choice. Various private mortgaging and leasing plans are given lower priority ratings.

Plans for the hospital date back to October, 1965, when the trustees authorized the preparation of a master plan for future physical development of the hospital. This plan, completed one year later, was approved in principle by the trustees. At that time, the board approved the preparation of the first two construction phases of the master plan.

In January, 1968, the first construction phase was presented to the trustees with an estimated cost of $55 million. The trustees at that time authorized preparation of a report which continued preliminary investigations. When the plan was presented in January, 1969, the cost of the project had risen to $103 million.

Concern over the cost deferred sections of the plan and a revised report in October, 1969 placed the price tag at $63.5 million, the current projected cost.

of regional planning was devoted to ecology, McHarg said he felt motivated to make a commitment to the teach-in. "The University has a moral responsibility to provide leadership for the city in the area of pollution control," he declared. "We will make a contribution in this field and would like to associate in our efforts with all similarly motivated individuals."

These words were echoed by Austin Librach, a graduate student in environmental and water resources engineering, who helped organize the studio. Librach stressed the wide variety of fields which are available for exploration.

Students, in the studio, Librach said, will be able to relate their background to some aspect of the environment problem. One animal ecologist will investigate the area of plant and animal deaths resulting from pollution, while an engineerplans a project on water pollution. Other ideas include an exploration on the part of microbiology students of the effects of bad sanitation facilities.

Possibilities are also open in seemingly unrelated fields, Librach said. He noted that law students, for example, can draw up model pollution legislation and investigate the means of having these laws implemented.

Librach also expressed a desire to work in conjunction with the Annen- burg School to produce a movie about the condition of the environment in the Philadelphia area.

port Has been approved by the budget committee, Maddin said it still had to ga through a number of channels before it became official policy.

The administrative subcommittee, chaired by John Hetherston, vice-president for coordinated planning, is studying the possibilities of economizing in such administrative areas as publications, printing expenses, xeroxing practices, clean- ing and maintenance services, and secretarial work.

Hetherston stressed that administrative cuts would prevent the extent of some services from being as great as they might be.

The academic subcommittee has called for a temporary, partial freeze on filling vacated faculty positions, and the committee's recommendation has been accepted by Provost God- dard.

Dr. John Hobstetter, vice-provost for research, said the subcommittee on graduate fellowships, which he is chairing, is just forming. Outlining the problems his committee will have to deal with, Hobstetter said full-time enrollment in the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences has declined almost 20 percent in the past two years. Tuition income has declined in proportion, but graduate fellowship aid from University sources has not yet decreased.

Hobstetter commented, "Since Federal fellowship programs have fallen to about one-half their earlier number, the proportion of our students supported by theUniversityhas actually increased. It will be difficult to avoid a recommendation that the total student aid funds be reduced in proportion to declining enrollment.

Peace kites honor Ben on birthday fete

JERRY MARCUS

TWO MEMBERS of the broadway cast of Hair joined Miss Teenage Philadelphia at the festivities honoring the 264th birthday of Ben

Franklin.

By ELLEN W£BER Although Ben Franklin, in whose honor the City of Philadelphia held a kite

flying contest Saturday, might have been shocked by the descendants of his famous kite and even by their fliers, the event at Independence Mall proved that big kids as well as little still like to go fly a kite.

Differing as much in their own appearance as in that of their kites, approximately 100 daring aviators and spectators braved the cold and wind of the icy square to commemorate the 264th birthday of old Ben, the most famous of all kite pilots. One middle-aged man, dressed as old Ben himself, carried a plastic kite hand-crafted from the bags of one of Philadelphia's most historic institutions, Wanamaker's. While school children sailed ordin- ary dime-store paper kites, a few creative adults manned kites shaped like birds, while one fatherly flying ace, guided the Red Baron.

Nothing, not even kite-flying, is sacred from politics and commercialism. Members of the cast of Hair, one of whom flashed a button reading "Up your kite" carried forth a publicity campaign for a new type of plastic kite manu- factured by Poster Prints. As non-competing participants, the Hair group flew 12 different types of kites with various political connotations including an American flag, a peace symbol, a red strike fist, ZigZag man, the symbol of "Roll Your Own" papers for cigarettes (or whatever), and Mickey Mouse. While the group ostensibly was not competing, they privately admitted their desire to "break the world's record set inSarasota."

While for most of the astronauts all systems were go, the contest had its share of kite casualties. A 20 pound lead like, fashioned by Penn graduate students Dan Prenter and Preston Kohn, never got off the ground due to the lack of an electrical outlet on the premises. Prenter, equipped with asbestos gloves, blow torch and a Nuclear Medicine laboratory coat, and Kohn attired in a green cape, insisted that their "science fair project" had actually flown in the lab, and that the lack of the needed electricity just proved that "the world has always resisted innovation." The pair had even brought their own two girl non-partisan cheering section, carrying signs reading "Up with Lead Kites" and "Down with Lead Kites."

High winds added to the difficulties of several fliers. The most original kite, whatever it was, was destroyed in flight. Another kite having reached the end of its line, snapped, and the dove-shaped kite was prophetically propelled into space. The highest kite reached Camden, though it returned safely to its owner, who, some felt, had the unfair advantage of being close to 6 and half feet tall.

Highlighting the patriotic event was the appearance of a thirty-five man marching band, direct from Fort Myers, Virginia, dressed as Red Coat soldiers, playing the traditional fifes, drums and bugles. Among the eminent figures present was Miss Teen-age Philadelphia, appropriately clad in a red maxi coat and black boots, who, along with members of the Tourist Bureau, judged the contest.

The true significance of the event, however, did not go unheeded. While contestants worried about keeping their sky ships aloft, spectators pondered the hidden meaning of the strange phenomenon of kite flying. Psychological correlations were attempted between the pilots' characters and the types of kites they manned. However, one emminent Penn psychology professor sug- gested that the real appeal of kite flying was far simpler; it is, he said, "uplifting to their personalities."

HARVARD:

Medical students protested their limited housing arrangements in a "mill-in" taking place in the office of the dean of the Faculty.

Harvard's freshman council voted to establish 24-hour parietals for the freshman dorms, and in anticipation of a council merger with Radcliffe, Harvard's freshman moved to revise its constitution to permit the merger.

COLUMBIA:

William J. McGill, chancellor of the University of California at San Diego is now the leading candidate for the presidency of Columbia, administrative sources reported. The psychologist last summer approved the reappointment of radical philo- sopher Herbert Marcuse, an act which caused Gov. Reagan and the California Regents to assume the responsibility for all appointments at the university.

PRINCETON:

James F.OatesJr, charter trustee and chairman of the executive committee of the board of trustees of Princeton has been named Saturday Review's "businessman of theyear."

BROWN:

Pembroke's University Council on Student Affairs yesterday abolished second semester freshman curfews.

As "a major step toward im- proving the education of women in the University, the Pembroke Study Com- mittee agreed to confront the faculty with a recommendation requesting that the University hire more femal faculty and administrators.

The lampyridac beetle family. Delight of small boys. Biological light bulb. And prime source of raw material for another Du Pont innovation.

Luciferase, an enzymatic protein with intriguing properties, obtain- able only from fireflies. Luciferin, an organic molecule also found in fireflies, but synthesizable. Adeno- sine triphosphate (ATP), a common energy-yielding suostance found in all living cells.

Those are the three main ingre- dients in lampyridac's love light. And because ATP is common to all living cells, university researchers discovered they could produce an

artificial glow by mixing luciferin and luciferase wherever life is present.

Noting that phenomenon, Du Pont scientists and engineers went on to develop it into a practical ana- lytical system. Correlating the in- tensity of the artificial "glow" with the amount of ATP present in bacteria, they designed a means of measuring the reaction.

The result is the luminescence biometer—the first really basic improvement in bacteria-counting methods since the time of Louis Pasteur. Rather than waiting days for a culture to demonstrate growth density, a doctor or technician can

now get a digital readout of bacteria concentration in a matterof minutes.

Other potentially lifesaving uses for the biometer are being sug- gested every day—such as diagnos- irg metabolic rates, enzyme de- ficiencies and nerve damage.

Innovation—applying the known to discover the unknown, inventing new materials and putting them to work, using research and engineering to create the ideas and products of the future—this is the venture Du Pont people are engaged in.

was too tough to beat seven." Never- theless, Perm gets the win because it put more points on the scoreboard, and hre's how that happened:

--With Hankinson getting seven points in the first five minutes, the Quakers jumped to an 11-4 lead. Hastings did most of the bombing as the visitors pulled to 22-21. In- glesby's jumper tied it at 27 with four minutes left in the half, and he hit two more buckets as the Wild- kittens took a 33-29 halftime lead.

—The lead reached 37-29 and stood at 40-34 with 18:15 left. Hansen entered the game, and the Quakers proceeded to reel off 10 points in a row. Hansen's layup, on a feed from Littlepage, at 16:06, gave the Red and Blue a lead they held for 13 minutes.

--Penn's biggest lead came with 6:32 left, at 64-58. Villanova then rallied for seven straight, taking a 65-64 lead on Inglesby's drive with 3:44 left. Hankinson's follow of Steve Batory*s missed foul gave Penn a 68-67 advantage with 2:33 left; 30 seconds later, Newman canned one of two fouls to knot the count. There was no further scoring in regulation, as Villanova held for a last shot, Inglesby missing a 15-footer and a Newman tap rolling off the rim at the buzzer.

—Villanova took a 74-73 lead into the final minute of the first overtime. With 59 seconds left, Hastings hit Newman alone under the hoop for a three-point play and a four-point bulge. Eleven seconds later, Hurley hit a jumper; two seconds after that, Burns fouled Inglesby and left the game. The Cardinal O'Hara grad sank the first of a one-and-one, and the clock was down to :32 before Penn

won the scramble for the loose rebound. Hankinson hit from the corner seven seconds later, but Newman converted both parts of a one-and- one to give 'Nova an 80-77 lead with 17 seconds left. But Batory hit from the corner, and was decked by Al Pianelli after the shoot. Twelve seconds remained as he knotted the count at 80, but Villanova controlled the ball when he missed the bonus shot. Hastings drove, but his shot was off as the overtime ended.

—Hankinson's layup and Ingles- by's free throw gave Penn an 82-81 lead. At 3:15, Newman drew an offensive foul, his personal, and Batory followed with a drive for a three- point Quaker advantage. With 2:57 left, Hastings' offensive foul sent him to the bench, and Hurley followed with a jumper for an 86-81 Penn lead. The Wildkittens could get no closer than three after that.

Hankinson was the high scorer in the game, with 38, to which he added 29 rebounds. Other Quakers in double figures were Batory (19), Hurley (13), and Littlepage (1 ). In- glesby led the losers with 31; Has- tings added 24 and Newman 19. Vil- lanova's record is now 4-4, 2-1 in Big Five play. The Red and Blue are 4-4, 1-2 in the City Series.

Basketball (Continued from page 8)

and Harter noted, "That was the only thing that kept them from running us out of there."

Dave Wohl missed his first eight shots and wound up hitting just two- for-13 field goal attempts before fouling out, but Bilsky and Morse offensively, Calhoun defensively, and Jim Wolf and Morse rebounding- wise with nine apiece helped the Quakers avoid an embarrassing con- clusion.

said one freshman who wished to remain anonymous," but we didn't play up to our capabilities." This reaction was echoed by other frosh players as well.

"First of all we had to get used to the rink," explained Jacques Perras commenting on the unusually large Smith Rink. "In our rink we will beat them by more than five goals," he predicted.

The freshmen have an excellent team in every respect and they know it. The spirit is high, the skating hard, and the defense tough. "We haven't met the competition that will bring out our true ability," feels Peter McNamee.

passed by the University Council and board of trustees.

The Columbia University Senate, compose d of faculty members, administrative officials and students, is the policy-making body at Columbia.

The only university body that can overrule the Senate is the board of trustees, but spokesmen for Columbia said Friday that a trustees' veto is unlikely.

The approved regulations also for- bid Columbia from undertaking any contracts that would attempt to regu- late the religious or political affilia- tions, or the race of persons who take part in the research projects.

Columbia also may not undertake contracts in which the outside concern can exercise a veto on the publication or the results of a research project.

The new regulation are a result of a report by the Columbia University on Externally Funded Research and Instruction, which was established in the fall of 1968.

Dr. Warren Goodell, Columbia's vice president for administration, said that Columbia was presently involved in only two classified research projects.

Dr. Goodell emphasized that the new regulations contain a clause specifying that the prohibition against classified research contracts apply only to agreements to which Columbia is a part. He added that the regulations "specifically do not apply to individual consulting arrangements."

Asked whether this meant that a Columbia faculty member could undertake a classified research project if Columbia did not become involved in any way, he answered "yes."

Bilsky's heroics save Quakers' 12th victory Cagers stop UMass, 75-65,

despite poor first half By MARVIN DASH

For a while.it seemed as if the time machine had taken Penri basketball on a hurried trip back into the past Saturday night at the Pales- tra.

The 1969-70 Quakers, looking more like the 1967-68 version which limped to a 9-17 record, couldn't get untracked in a first half showing which coach Dick Harter and every- one else in attendance rated as no better than poor.

Meanwhile, Massachusetts' Juilus Erving was putting on a performance which bordered on the sensational, and an unhappy Quaker five left the floor trailing, 38-35. It was only the second time this season that Penn's cagers had been behind at intermis- sion. The first was a 29-26 halftime deficit against Villanova.

The Red and Blue were a lot happier when they returned to the dressing room after the final buzzer with a 75-65 victory, their 12th in 13 games, tying the University mark for the best basketball start ever, set in the 1942-43 campaign.

It was far from easy, however, as Erving and mates, and the referees kept the Quakers from breaking the game open.

Erving, who went into the game scoring 23.6 points per game in addition to holding down fifth place among the nation's leading rebounders with a 20.6 average, lived up to his credentials by sinking 21 points and pulling down eight caroms before halftime.

But the 6-5 leaper could manage but two more baskets in the second half thanks to some tough defense by Corky Calhoun.Calhoun, who added 13 points himself, hounded the Mass- achusetts start until fouling out with 2;44 remaining.

Still, the Redmen kept it close as sophomore John Betancourt came off the bench to hit five field goals for a perfect night from the floor, the last one giving the defending Yankee Conference champs, now 5-4 this season, their final lead, 59-58, with 6:23 on the clock.

Calhoun sank a pair of fouls shots, then missed the second of two more charity tosses, but little 5-10 Steve Bilsky somehow squirmed through the maze of giants to grab the rebound and twist in a fantastic left- handed hook shot to up the Quakers' lead to 63-59.

A minute and a half later Bilsky drove down the left side of the foul lane and and threw up a right-handed layup that fell in for two more tallies.

"When I went up, I though I had a pretty easy shot," Bilsky said of the first circus toss. "Then I saw two hands up there looking down on me."

Betancourt canned two from the foul line, but BobMorse, who matched Bilsky's 21 points to lead the Penn attack, threw in a shot from the left corner when the Quakers moved into their box offense.

"I called for the box play," Harter

said of the strategy. "I wanted a layup."

The coach was looking for the sure basket, and that's just what he got, according to Morse, the 6-8 precision shooter. "I knew it was in," he said of the 20-footer.

Bilsky fired in four more foul shots to give the Red and Blue a 71-63 margin with 1:04 left to ice the game.

"Besides the layups, we played well down the stretch," Harter commented. "I think they're a pretty good team. They prepared for a long time and had us well scouted."

The Redmen played well enough to make it a contest far longer than Harter had wanted. A 19-11 rebounding advantage in the first half helped. So did the referees.

Afer a Ken Mathias bucket 13 seconds into the game, the Quakers ran off seven straight points and seemed ready to run the visitors right out of the Palestra.

Then the refs missed the first of two blatant goal-tending plays, and UMass scored seven consecutive points to forge to a 9-7 advantage and set the tempo for the rest of the half.

One of the officials, Tom Casey, is a gym teacher at Penn freshman star Phil Hankinson's old high school, and was a familiar face to Bilsky, too.

"For a guy who reffed half my high school games, he didn't give us any breaks," the Long Island native declared.

Luckily, the Quakers didn't need any. The Redmen committed 10 turn- overs in the first half to Penn's five,

Yale gets only Penn's sympathy (Continued from page 1)

in direct violation of an NCAA ordi- nance banning college basketball players from post-season competition other than the Olympics or the Pan- American Games.

University students Steve Bilsky and Alan Cotler, the "two boys" to whom Shabel refers, were also invited to the Games but declined to go for fear they would jeopardize their collegiate eligibility. Yale had guaranteed Langer he still could play basketball if he participated; Bilsky and Cotler were not given the same support.

Shabel, however, did guarantee that the University would fight to maintain Penn's national eligibility so that the pair would not be forced to miss both the Tel Aviv games and NCAA playoffs, which the team would enter if it wins the Ivy League.

The University Athletic Advisory Council met for three hours Friday morning and issued a statement which said "Pennsylvania's primary obligation is to protect the opportunity of all University teams and players to fulfill their promise in intercollegiate

Quaker squashmen mash the Middies as Gerhart stars

By SARA KLEPPINGER

Varsity squash coach Al Molloy found out Saturday that this year's version of his 1968 Ivy League championship team is as good as he thought it was as theunbeatenQuakers beat Navy 6-3 before a partisan crowd at Annapolis for their third straight win.

It was only the second time in the last 10 years that Penn defeated the Middies on their home courts. "Any time you come away with a victory down there, you're playing pretty well," said a relieved Molloy.

The Quakers won the top two matches as both Palmer Page and Eliot Berry, who have yet to lose

MASON GERHART

a game this year, trounced Hal Mash- burn and Bill Custer 3-0, respec- tively.

But it was Maso Gerhart's 3-1 victory over the highly-touted soph Gordon Perry at number three that Molloy termed crucial. "Had he not won; we would have been in trouble," said Molloy.

Playing in the fourth slot, junior Jeff Condon suffered his first loss in intercollegiate play, foiling to another Navy soph, Jim Dunn, who had a national ranking in high school. Dunn was forced to five games before he was able to upset an unusually shaken Condon.

Anil Kapur, whom coach Molloy noted "was not quite up to par," was a three-game loser to determined Middie George Stiles while captain Peter Singer struggled to a five- game victory over Lee McFarland. Singer, who was down 12-6 in the last game, made a tremendous come- from-behind effort to finally take the match, 15-14. "Pete's victory was particularly satisfying," noted a pleased Molloy.

Charlie Moore was the final Quker victim, losing to Stu Wilson 3-0. Both soph Charlie Jacobs and senior Hugh Curry nailed down 3-1 wins over Ron Wood and Charlie Stiles, respec- tively.

In the nightcap, the frosh team squeaked by what coach Molloy termed as the "best plebe team I've seen at Navy."

"I was very encouraged," continued Molloy, "because of the great improvement of the group as a whole. The potential of the team is beginning to show as they finally seem to be getting in shape."

competition. Two University students...chose not to participate in the Maccabiah basketball games in order that the eligibility of all Uni- versity teams and players not be placed in jeopardy."

The council went on to call the NCAA decision not to sanction the games "a grievous error" and pledged that the University "will continue to do all within its power" to reverse that decision.

In addition, the University joined its Ivy sister schools other than Yale in issuing a statement to the effect that they would not impose self-probation in sympathy with Yale. In a joint statement issued by Cornell President Dale Corson, who also issued the Ivy presidents' letter of two weeks ago which gave "moral support" to Yale and its fight, the other seven Ivies declined to submit themselves to voluntary probation in support of Yale.

The Ivy release included a statement by Kingman Brewster, president of Yale, requesting that the other Ivies not to use their players "as pawns" the way NCAA executive secretary Walter Byers was using Langer in the feud with the AAU.

"The NCAA's present action of two-year probation," Shabel as- sessed, "is final because they recog- nize that Yale, in all probability, will play Langer. So the probation means that all Yale's teams and all Yale's athletes cannot participate in post- season activities during the next two years. The swimmer who has a good time he will not be able togo....Plus the fact that Yale cannot negotiate any TV contracts the next two years,

which is a financial probation. "My understanding of the NCAA

ruling is that their penalty is final, which means that they're sort of ac- cepting the fact Langer will play, and as a result, this does not affect the regular season schedule in anyway," continued Shabel.

Army edges varsity, 2-1

Hankinson stars as frosh top 'Nova in two overtimes

By JOHN V/ERTHEIMER "It was a great team victory. The kids really came through under pres-

sure,' said Penn coach Dick Phelps. "My'kids did a hell of a job. It doesn't show it on the scoreboard, but we

beat them," said Villanova coach Mel Brodsky. It's nice when both coaches can be satisfied after a game. Probably the

only thing closer to both teams actually winning is something like Saturday's freshman game at the Palestra, which went to the Quakers, 93-87, in double overtime.

Phelps saw a lot of pluses for his team. "We did a lot of switching at the end. We wound up with (Criag) Littlepage and (Phil) Hankinson on (Tom) Inglesby and (Ed) Hastings, to try to bother their shooting, and it worked." Each of the Villanova guards, hounded by a Penn big man, missed a crucial shot, Inglesby at the end of regulation and Hastings at the end of the first overtime.

The Red and Blue mentor continued, "We got a big emotional lift from Keith Hansen." Penn got more than that — four key points and a lot of work under the boards -- from the Libertyville, 111. forward. Hansen, a 6'6" 230-pounder, has only one good knee as a souvenir from the grid- iron, and was in competition on the hardwood for the first time in two years. He entered early in thesecond half and was able to go more than 25 of the final 30 minutes.

Another target of Phelps' praise was guard "Doc" Hurley, who made two big shots, one that kept the trailing Quakers alive in the first overtime, and one that gave them their first five-point lead in the second extra period.

Finally, said Phelps, "We didn't commit any dumb fouls," which may have been the most important factor in the game. Penn lost cnly John Burns via the five-personals route, while three Wildkitten starters- Hastings, center Gary Jentz, and forward GregNewman--were disqua- lified.

The fouls, the whistles that blew for them (and those that blew for other things), and the men that blew the whistles, were the subject of a great deal of attention from the several hundred fans and the two coaches. The judgment of the gentlemen in the striped shirts drew a lot of question, often justifiably so. Villanova's Brod- sky, not at all spewing sour grapes, but rather stating what he felt wac a fact that everybody would agree with, said, "We beat five of them, but it

Frosh icemen roll on, 4-1 By RICH PER0ZICH

WEST POINT — Penn's frosh icemen skated on here Saturday, remaining unbeaten by crushing the Plebes 4-1, but the Cadets edged the Quakers in the nightcap, 2-1.

Midway through the first stanza of the varsity battle, with the pres- sure on the Quakers, Sam Gellard blocked on Army shot. Then skated with the puck to the blue line, where he passed to Tommy Davis, Davis then slammed a 20-foot shot into the goal to put Penn ahead 1 -0.

Skating with only two lines, Jim, Salfi's team (2-8) failed to score in the second period, but they managed to stymie the West Point attack.

Early in the third stanza, however, with Pennsylvania a man short, Army's Geoffrey Champion passed to his center John Roberts, who fired the puck past goalie JohnMarks to tie the score.

At 13:31 of the same period, after defenseman Bob Finke fell to the ice. Champion edged the puck through

the legs of Marks. The Quaker defense was outstand-

ing, holding West Point to only two goals. Army outshot Penn 30-27.

"We made a few mistakes and they capitalized on them," said Salfi after his team's earnest performance. "We just didn't score."

The Penn varsity was checking hard in their heartbreaking loss, just as the freshmen did in the afternoon game.

Right wing Mike Hubbert delivered the first blow to West Point 6:33 into the first period. Assisted by his new linemen, center Bob Read and left win Tom Reid, Hubbert shot the puck over Cadet goalie Bill Goodwin for the Quaker score.

Army's Matt Eaton knotted the score at 1-1 when his shot, deflected by the shoulder of defenseman John Drinker rolled off the glove of goalie Tim McQuiston for the goal. McQuiston, however, with just 10 seconds left in the opening stanza and a two-on-one situation, made a brilliant save, blocking a hard shot

by Army to avert a score. Penn continued to harass Goodwin

in the second period with center Paul Daigle twice slamming the puck into the Army net. Left wing KenMulvaney rebounded a shot by Bill MacDonell, passing back to Daigle who drilled a 30-footer past Goodwin.

With just 24 seconds left in the second period, Mulvaney again set up Daigle. The center from Dunville, Ontario slapped a 20 foot shot into the coal to put Penn ahead 3-1.

Midway through the third stanza, defenseman Peter McNamee checked a Cadet center breaking up a 2 on 1 play. McNamee recovered the puck at the boards and attempted a shot from the Army blue line. The defenseman rebounded the shot and passed to right win Jacques Perras in front of the goal. Perras flipped in the puck for the final Quaker tally.

Penn bambarded the excellent Cadet goalie, Bill Goodwin with 50 shots while limiting the Plebes to 26.

America, France, or Australia, though; it's the championship of the indoor tennis world.

It takes place February 2-8 at the Spectrum, as Rod Laver, the class of a record thoroughbred field of 81, shoots for an unheard-of third—and most difficult--Grand Slam.

Laver, who won an all-amatuer Grand Slam in 1962 and added an open tournament slam to his record last year, heads a male field of 72. Besides Laver, Don Budge (1938) is the only man in history to win all the major tournaments in a single year.

Margaret Smith Court is the top seed in the nine- woman field. Last season she swept three legs on the ladies' Slam—the U.S. Open at Forest Hills, France, and Australia. Mrs. Court had retired from competitive tennis following her marriage but returned to the world scene two years ago, winning 24 of the 30 tournaments she has since entered.

Mrs. Court's foes will include Billie Jean King, Nancy Richey, Rosie Casals, Francoise Durr, Virginia Wade, Peaches Bartkowicz, Julie M. Held- man, and Mary Ann Curtis. The prize purse, donated by World Tennis Magazine, is $7,500, with $3,000 going to the winner.

The male stakes are somewhat richer—top prize

of $10,000 as part of a $60,000 purse.

Challenging Laver, who won the tournament last year when it was known only as the"Phiadelphia In- door Open" —now that it's a world-renown tournament, the title is "International Tennis Players Association (ITPA) Open Tennis Championships" — will be some of the sport's biggest names.

Tony Roche, the only player in the world to post a winning record over the redheaded Rocket (6-3) last year, is one.

Charles Pasarell, who won the Philadelphia In- door in 1965 and 1966, Arthur Ashe (1967 winner) and Spain's Manuel Santana (1968) are some others.

Top Americans include Marty Riessen, Stan Smith, Bob Lutz, Clark Graebner, Cliff Richey, Dennis Ralston, Butch Buchholz, and Pancho Gonzales.

A list of the outstanding foreigners would have to include Rumanians Ion Tiriac and Hie Nastase, Aussies Roy Emerson, Fred Stolle, and Lew Hoad, and Britain's Roger Taylor. Plus Pancho Segura, Tom Okker, Thomas Koch, Andres Gimeno, and Premjit Lall.

Denmark's bearded Torben Ulrich, a 40-plus rock music d.j., will be playing. Denmark is one of 22 countries represented.

Since there is room for only 48 players in the male draw, a qualifying tournament will be held January 30-31 to determine which eight of the addition al 32 entrants will compete at the Spectrum.

Students will be admitted to the tournament at half-price upon presentation of matriculation card.
