Safiy Pennsylvanian VOL. LXXXIII PHILADELPHIA, PENNSYLVANIA THURSDAY, FEBRUARY IS, 1%8 NO. 112 12 law profs sign anti-war circular Speaker ban is backed by one fourth of frosh By BERL SCHWARTZ Almost half the Law School faculty and 137 of its students have signed a mild anti-war statement that has been circulated in law schools throughout the nation. The statement calls for "political and military de-escalation" but rejects immediate U.S. withdrawal as a solution to the Vietnam war. "We believe," it states, "that it is wrong and dangerous in these circumstances to continue to subordinate desparately needed domestic programs to the increasing demands this war is imposing on our nation's resources and moral energies." The statement was drafted last fall by a student-faculty group at Harvard Law School. Today was the date set for law schools across the country to release the number of signatures the statement has garnered. The 12 faculty members -- out of 26-- who endorsed it are professors Paul Bruton, Morris Cohen, John Honnold, Howard Lesnick, Robert Mundheim, Curtis Reitz, Louis Schwartz, and Bernard Wolf man, and Assistant Professors James Freedman, Stephen Goldstein, Richard Lonsdorf and Robert A. Gorman, who distributed the statement in the Law School. More than one-fourth of the 541 law students endorsed it. The statement calls de-escalation "essential steps towards ending the fighting in Vietnam" and continues: "We believe that our country should take (Continued on page 3) By PHIL ARKOW Twenty-five per cent of Pennsylvania's freshmen believe that the University has the right to ban extremist speakers from the campus and censor student publications, a recent survey has disclosed. Only eight per cent considered the chances "very good" that they will participate in demonstrations.

Trumpler: Neverl By ERIC TURKINGTON Third of a series The stern-faced old gentlemen whose gilt-framed portraits line the walls of the office of Dr. John Hobstetter, vice provost for research, look as if they had been staring down at Hobstetter for generations. In reality, though, Hobstetter has been under their scowling countenances for something less than a year. He was appointed by President Harnwell in the aftermath of the Spice Rack scandal; his main duty is to examine all proposed research to insure that it complies with University regulations. "These Federal research projects are a great bargain for the University," Hobstetter asserts, "the University gets all the credit for any discoveries made, at very little cost." How little cost? Hobstetter says there are two different kinds of Federal research money the University gets. On cost contracts, also known as "purchased" research, the University loses (Continued on page 4) One of the few scientists at the I'niversity who has not taken any Federal sponsored research projects is Dr. P.R. Trumpler, professor of mechanical engineering in the Towne School. As even more unique distinction is that Trumpler is willing to publicly oppose the system. "I'm so glad the DP's doing something on this," he says. "It's tremendously important — the whole future of the University, of ALL private universities, depends on it." How so? JOHN N. HOBSTETTER Bargain hunter "Teaching is the prime function of a university," says the professor of mechanical engineering," and research is an important adjunct to teaching.

We believe that such steps are an essential precondition for the release of those political forces, both within South Vietnam and internationally, which seek peaceful compromise and could engage in genuine negotiations.

At least 5 others are scheduled for 1969. As a result of action by the alumni of each of one graduate with one undergraduate fraternity, two properties have become available to alleviate the interim housing dilema for two of the fraternities that are being forced to relocate. By action of the Board of Trustees, the properties at 3525 Locust (formerly Beta) and 3900 Spruce (formerly AMPO-medical) were temporarily so allocated. In keeping with the University policy established for the group of fraternities required to relocate previously, the problem of selection between two available properties was assigned to an Arbitration Committee of Inter Fraternity Alumni Council. The Arbitration Committee appointed by M. B. Lamar, President of Inter Fraternity Alumni Council consisted of Roland B. Whit ridge, David Auten, Esq., and Morton Abrams, Esq. After inspection of both available properties, a meeting with representatives of each affected fraternity and inspection of the present properties of each fraternity, the Arbitration Committee unanimously recommended to I.F.AJC. and the University that the property at 3900 Spruce be assigned to Sigma Phi Epsilon and the property at 3525 Locust to Tau Epsilon Phi. The Committee reported that the decision was a difficult one as the condition, capacity and facilities available at the Locust Street property were clearly superior to those available at the Spruce Street Property. Consequently the Committee strongly recommends to the University that available funds for rehabilitation of these properties be spent primarily for necessary improvements for the Spruce Street location because the Locust Street facility now temporarily occupied is in comparatively better condition. The criteria used by the Inter Fraternity Alumni Council ArbitrationCornmittee in reaching its decision were: 1. History of membership size. 2. Present fraternity dormitory capacity. 3. Overall size of present properties. 4. Financial resources and stability. 5. Assurances of ability to fully utilize assigned properties. 6. General program, history of conduct, and scholarship records of each fraternity. 7. Maintenance of present facilities. Hobstetter defends research (Continued from page 1) nothing the government pays the whole cost of such specialized research in a particular area where a government agency needs a problem studied. But it does lose money on research grants, which are given for more general goals and are consequently more desirable. For on these projects the University is required to share part of the cost. In recent years the University's share has averaged only five percent of the total Federal money received: something less than $2,000,000 yearly. What does he think of the whole system of Federal research funds? "It's been a pretense," he says. "The universities have known exactly what they were doing when they accepted Federal re- w ../ search money — they were supporting graduate education." "On paper," he continues, "the government was only buying the results of research." The subterfuge was necessary, he says, because for many years Congressional reaction to aiding education was negative, while research indirect or indirect support of the national defense was something Congress could support. But no more. The 1965 Higher Education Act broke the ice, and now, Hobstetter says, "we can sell graduate education." Already direct Federal aid has become a reality, in the form of the new Fine Arts Building, the social science center, and the Bennett Hall remodeling.

Randy El kins Editor, 1968 Record SHIT, YEAH Irwin B. Arieff Editor, Penn Comment RECORD STRIKES BACK Editor, The Daily Pennsylvanian: Bob Simon is guilty of the same irresponsibility in his letters as in his yearbook work. Among the things Bob left out in his diatribe: there will be no team shots of last spring's sports in the 1968 Record because Bob never bothered to have them arranged, despite prodding by the editors and photographers; Bob's disregard for deadlines caused a month's delay in delivery to the publisher of the fall sports material. For all intents and purposes, Bob's heeler has been the sports editor for the last five months. It was unethical for Bob to use that position to bolster his ownviews. Secondly, in the few times he has been at the office he never bothered to sit down and go through the hundreds of candids and pick out ones he'd like to see in the book. Nor did he ever suggest to me or Editor, The Daily Pennsylvanian: Has there been a mistake? Shouldn't Ira Einhorn be teaching the "Bullshit" course? Sue Tyler Liz Kelner C.W. *68 CONSPIRATORS FLATTERED editor, the daily pennsylvanian: To Misses Loeb, Peters, Kalicka,Shader, Cavasinni, Roderick, Mark andLebkuecher: 1. Have you ever seen or signed "the Meal Contract" you so blithely quote from? Never in recorded history has a resident of Hill Hall seen a printed food contract. The only reference to board is on the Dormitory Bill. It says that you pay (this term, at least): Board- $190. That is all. It does not specify amount or type of food or even the number of meals a week. Before any alterations in food service can or should be made, the exact terms of a contract should be known and witnessed by a contractee. 2. The obtaining of free seconds cannot be considered "cheating" since there was no apparent and agreed-upon rule to limit the number of servings. 3. Though the boycott may be considered a "rash action," it has undoubtedly contributed to the consideration of specific food goals for dorm students and has made possible a meeting of the Hill Hall Food Committee with Dr. Levin; Dean Emerson; Mrs. Romer, Assistant to the Dean of Women; Mr. Evering, head of the Dining Service; and Mr. Scott, director of the Hill cafeteria. Constructive proposals and negotiations were taken up there. 4. I am very flattered to havebeen hailed as "the instigator of the boycott." (I assume Foreman-Forman, the latter being my name) But, I regretfully must disclaim total responsibility for the action, since the rest of the "conspirators" feel slighted.

What I take to be his community as a whole) does not avail itself enough of talent found in places other than fraternities. His criticism is proven by turning to the list of honor men contained in the same issue of the D.P. Twenty-three of this year's twentyseven candidates belong to a fraternity. Twenty-three of twenty-seven. Twelve of the twenty-seven belong to a mysterious organization called Phi Kappa Beta. All twelve are fraternity members, as listed in the D.P. What does Phi Kappa Beta do for the University? Why should membership in it be listed as a qualification for being an honor man? Is a student quietly and anonymously working with West Philadelphia high school students not equally deserving of a nomination? Lest this be interpreted as a typical anti-fraternity outcry, I admit that fraternities can and do perform many services for the University. All twenty-seven candidates are deserving of some kind of respect. But admiration seems too strong a word. Bob Anyon turned thumbs down on a lot of this. As a result, he will probably find himself on the outside. I, for one, find it very educational to be on the outside, holding no position of responsibility, feeling free to watch, to question, and occasionally, to bitch.

The team, composed of Paul McCobb, driver. Bill Marshal, brakeman, and Louis Calomariz and Mike Sulzeach, alternates, is ready to race down the one mile run at 100 miles per-hour on 10-to-25 feet wide banked curves and 6-foot-wide glareiced straight-a-ways, at Mt. Vonhoovenburg, N.Y. Driver McCobb, no stranger to bobsledding, has become well acquainted with Mt. Vonhoovenburg, the only bobsled run on the continent, in the years it has taken him to gain the experience required for a license to compete. The University's sled, made in Cortina, Italy, of tube-steel frame (to withstand tremendous shocks) on cold-rolled steel runners, is one of the most competitive on the run. Its previous owner has driven it to the number one spot in the two-man event, representing the U.S. on its World Bobsled Team in St. Moritz in 1966 and in Cortina in 1967. This bodes well for the University , since they will be con. peting with two national and European drivers in the coming season which begins Saturday.

Action Line Trumpler criticizes U.S. (Continued from page 1) "Because sponsored research is inherently unfree, and a university must be free, totally free, to continue its present function." "A university can very easily degenerate into an industrial development organization," he says, "and many parts of Pennsylvania are like this already." He cites in particular the Moore School of Electrical Engineering, where, he says, the staff is twice the size it would be without outside research. What about Hobstetter"s description of the process a faculty member goes through to get research funds? "It's totally distored. What really happens is this. Faculty members, especially the young Ph.D's. are constantly badgered by their department heads to do sponsored research. "When they indicate an interest in studying something on their own, they're told to get outside sponsors to pay for it. They are constantly being told what specific kind of research is in demand right now and are encouraged to tailor their proposals to fit available funds." "When the professor submits his research idea to the University's Office of Project Research and Grants, he often finds that his own cost estimates are much smaller than what the University submits to the sponsor." "Often months later, the professor finds a sponsor. Whether or not he is still interested, he now undertakes the research, following a predetermined experimental course and submitting periodic progress reports to the sponsor. Soon he starts to worry about renewing the project, or replacing it, to keep the personnel and equipment he has gathered in use." "He becomes a businessman." "Right now," Trumpler continues, "theengineering school is in a crucial period. A multimillion dollar Ford Foundation grant expired, and the faculty has been told they've got to get sponsored research to replace it now. But with the government cut-back due to Vietnam they're finding it very difficult." "That's a fine example of the danger of becoming dependent on any sponsor — Federal or private. You find that soon the University can'tdo without it, without substantially retrenching — and they're not willing to do that." "Ninety per cent of sponsored research is sponsored by the U.S. government," Trumpler says, "most of it by the military. This has certainly affected education. After all, he who pays the piper calls the tune." Does he think there is widespread opposition to Federally sponsored research 'among the faculty? "Yes," he says, "but not public. After all, promotions, salary, tenure — all depend on getting sponsored research. It's a self-justifying policy, since dissenters have or are never hired in the beginning." About Spice Rack? "I just think it was a damn shame that the University had to examine its conscience through its students. I'm very grateful to them, of course, but it should have been the faculty's initiative. It just goes to show how far down the road to dependence on government grants we really are. No one wanted to rock the boat." ? s cljefa obfuscatton HOUSTON HALL TICKET SERVICE HAS TICKETS AVAILABLE FOR THE FOLLOWING CONCERTS: CLEVELAND SYMPHONY ORCHESTRA, GEORGE SZELL, CONDUCTOR FEBRUARY 15, 8:30 P.M.

Hobstetter (Continued from page 4) Is the faculty member hits upon a subject he is interested in. After discussing the idea with his superiors, he writes up the proposal. It is then submitted to the University's Office of Project Research and Grants, for advice on a likely sponsor and on budgeting. He sends out the proposal, and when it is accepted, takes the contract to Hobstetter, who consults with faculty committees to insure it goes along with University rules regarding publishability and appropriateness. Then the professor gathers a staff, equipment, and investigates. About Spice Rack, and the secret biological-warfare project, Hobstetter, in retrospect, thinks it a good thing. "The government is quietly phasing all its classified work out of the universities now," he says, and he sees "no small role for us" in causing this shift.

THE DAILY PENNSYLVANIA^' PAGE FIVE Baltimore Avenuers irkled by ouster Nineteen undergraduates are being shoved out of their apartments on the 3900 block of Baltimore to make studio-apartments for eight graduate students. The undergraduates claim they stand to lose a total of $10,000, the money they paid to last year's tenants for what they describe as near-worthless second hand furniture. Buying the furniture is a common practice in the University area to secure the lease. Tenants then hope to resell it to the next occupants at the same price. The 19 students, housed in four separate apartments, were given no indication that the University had plans for the property, they said. According to Larry Simon, a resident of one of the apartments and co-chairman of the Community Involvement Council, he had checked with the Planning and Development Office last year to see if it had any plans for the area. He said the office told him that nothing was projected in the next four years. On the strength of the Development Office's statement, Simon and four others signed a two-year lease. Two weeks ago they said they stumbled on the fact that sale of the building for use by the Graduate Fine Arts Department was imminent. They claimed they received no official word of the-plans to dislocate from the landlord, the University or Dr. Thomas Godfrey, chairman of the Fine Arts department and head of the program to reconvert the apartments into studios. Godfrey feels the undergraduate's problem is unfortunate, "but there is no University housing for graduate students. I'm doing the most I can to make my own program successful." Francis Betts, in the Planning and Development Office, wasn't aware that the purchase was planned. Edwin Ledwell, director of the Residence Office, said he hated to see anyone without housing, but he couldn't do anything about the 19 students except try to relocate them. George B, Peters, associate treasurer and the man who is heading University negotiations for the purchase, said the students had a problem, but that housing has always been a problem in the University area. Simon said it was another example of undergraduates "getting the shaft, another example of the usual University discrimination in favor of the graduate students." HEAR YE! HEAR YE!

"The University itself is committed to a policy of actively recruiting Negroes and to admitting all those who meet minimal qualifications; special efforts will continue to be made with regard to this program," Harnwell wrote. Admission policies will continue to give "special institutional points" to children of undergraduate degree holders "to continue the strengthening of ties with Pennsylvania's extensive body of alumni, now numbering about 120,000," he wrote.

Telephone swindles For whom fhe Bell tolls By DEBBIE JAMESON If talk is cheap, the telephone company may not be to blame. Students have long defrauded the phone company out of toll money, but never with the ingenuity shown these days. One University student reportedly made long distance calls by splicing half his telephone lines into a switchboard and connecting lines. "The system is virtually untraceable, he said. "Its only disadvantage is that you can't call trans-atlantic." However, there appears to be few barriers. Another student here tapped a closed switchboard on election night and called England for 20 minutes free. The familiar phone trick with public telephone booths seems fairly primitive. Both long-distance parties merely arrange to talk from their booths at a certain time. When the operator called back to collect, caller and called have vanished. Another swindle is the caller's request to "bill me at home." Operators often accept a week or more AS HUNDREDS OF COLLEGE GUYS AND GALS HAVE SUMMERTIMES with... Yes, you put in lots of hours but...

Ambrose Davis, office manager in the Residence Office reports that one girl in the dorms charges her toll calls over Christmas vacation to a University extension. Her bill added up to $72.80. However, this trick fell flat. When the girl charged to a third phone, she gave her real name to the operator, according to Davis. The Bell Co. spokesman took a rather benovolent attitude toward student phone-swindlers. "1 wouldn't label a college kid who dreams up some way to finagle the company for fun a criminal," he said, "i mean, I such requests and bill the address -- false of course -- given to them. Still another technique is the fraudulent credit card charge. Students rattle off a known card number - - specific numbers circulate campuses - - to the operator and the call goes through. When the owner of a card refuses to pay for a call he didn't make, the phone company takes him at his word and at their own loss. A spokesman for the Bell Telephone Company of Pennsylvania also cited the use of "black boxes and blue boxes." According to the Bell Representative, these boxes are "electronic devices that have been built to circumvent the billing device." A recent United Press International article even reported the use of computers to cheat. One Missourian, wouldn't call him a criminal like an armed robber." the article said, computerized the listed numbers in his city, and then dialed all the unlisted ones fed back to him. He finally hit on those numbers belonging to firms which paid monthly toll bills and charged his long distance calls accordingly. One University student reports that the best techniques utilize equipment stolen from the phone company. He said he finds a repairmen's self-dialing phone - - used to check the lines - - very handy when it's hooked to a switchboard.

Hustling Tom Northrup sparks Quaker five By MARK LIEBERMAN The first thing you notice about Tommy Northrup is his hair. On the Palestra hardwood, it blows freely in the breeze created by the hustle of the senior court captain. Off the court, it hangs down lazily over his forehead. The quiet, determined veteran doesn't seem to care about it though. From November to March he's a basketball player and very little else gets in the way of this part of his life. It has been a long road up for the six-foot guard.Two years ago he was a spectator on Perm's Ivy championship cage squad. Last season he plunged into a starter's job with all the determination he could muster and wound up leading the team with a 12.1 scoring average. And this year, Northrup has taken on a new role - captain of the *67-*68 basketball team. "Tommy isn't the rah-rah captain, ' coach Dick Hartersaid recently, "He's a leader by example. His best asset is his great competitive spirit." The example Northrup has set this season has been a good one. With the exception of some slight difficulties, he has been one of the most consistent players on the 12-man squad. The only returning two-year letterman on this year's edition of the basketball team, Northrup is pacing the squad with 216 points. Muscles straining, TOMMY NORTHRUP goes up for He is also displaying improving court action at the Palestra.

The Quakers and the Lions are starting their upward surge but the Bruin team which will test the Gimbel pool this Saturday has a long climb ahead The Quaker's favorite role of underdog will be reversed when they face the weaker Providence squad, whose 0-6 record last year put them below the Red and Blue in the unofficial final Ivy standings. This year, veteran coach Joe Watmough will come to Penn featuring six returning lettermen and a strong sophomore addition to his '67 nucleus. Junior Vance Salter, a standout in both the backstroke and freestyle, heads' the list of last year's Bruin yarsity. With captain Harold Mugford and sophomore Marc Christman, the Brown mermen could provide a real test for the Quaker varsity. Mugford excelled as a junior in the distance butterfly events and will face Quaker Steve Morrow in what promises to be a close race. Christman broke all Bruin frosh records in the breaststroke and will be strong in the medley relay and the 200-yard breaststroke against Penn's Conrad Reddick and Steve Shulman. "Brown has a couple good swimmers, but our times have been generally better than theirs this year, so we should have no problems in winning," noted Quaker mentor George Breen. * * * » — r The spring organizational meeting of the Penn Rugby Club will be held in the Ben Franklin Room of Houston Hall at 7:30 P.M. on February 15.
