Budget Seen As Desire To Enlarge Class Size By DAVE JONES J I ' I . 1 "Apparently there seems to be a desire to enlarge the size of the i hisses" began Prof. Harry Davis, ret ing chairman of the Department cl Dramatic Art, when asked what he felt of the implications of the new adwsory budget. "For a great many courses, such 1 1 as the ones we teach nere, mat means that there will be a sort of mechanical mass education instead of individual attention. Both the prnfor and the student lose, but it is the student who really has to pay the price." SPACE PROBLEM In commenting on the Dramatic Art Department specifically, Davis v. id." Our main problem here is tfiat we are scattered around so much. It would be a great physical irvl moral advantage if we were in one building. The University is i kteping that in mind and is trying to resolve this problem for ius, as a part of a larger space and facili ty problem. Actually, we are only re aspect of a total problem of space for the whole University." Dr. II. D. Crawford, acting chair man cf the Department of Chcmis tr declined comment when asked rJout the budget. NEED SALARY RAISES Prof. Samuel B. Knight, of the Department of Chemistry, said, "On Salaries I feel that we're go ing to have to have more money if e hope to compete nationally for professors in all grades, but espe cially for full professors." "We've got to move," Knight con tinued, "if the anticipated expansion comes upon us. We've got to move rpeciaf.'y in the realm of under graduate teaching, s well as In re- jeirch. And we've got to have more money for equipment." PRICES RISE "Laboratory equipment and apar ratus has jumped up by leaps and bounds instruments we used to get for 'JX) now cost $2,000 and we never have enough money for books." Prof. Norman E. Eliason, of the Ptpartment of English said, "The amounts provided for as salaries and for the library are totally in adequate. Unless the amounts are greatly increase, the University will suffer. This will become ap parent almost Immediately, and a year or two hence the prestige and effectiveness of the University will hrve declined so much that it will be necessary to spend far greater jurns to bring them back to where they are now.".

A five-party conference reached agree ment on independence for the island after 31 years under the British Flag. A historic document establishing the Mediterranean island as a republic was initialed tonight in a London hos pital room by the Prime Ministers of Britain, Greece and Turkey. Prime Minister MacMillan and Greek Premier Constantine Kara- manlis carried the official docu ment to the bedside of Turkish Pre mier Adnan Menderes, recovering from injuries suffered in a plane crash outside London Tuesday. CONFERENCE MARRED The agreement came in the third and final session of a conference dogged by rumors of discord and snarled by the Menderes plane crash. Archbishop Makarios, 45-year-old exiled leader of the Greek cypriots, ended up by signing the agreement after dropping earlier objections to some of its clauses. With Turkish cypriot leader, Dr. Gazil Kutchuk who also signed Makarios accepted Britain's pro posals that military bases on Cyp rus remain under British control. SEVERAL SIGN The agreement actually a com plex series of documents also was days." He is expected to be the first president of Cyprus. Makarios was sent into exile by the British in 1956. The British charged he supported the Greek Cypriot underground EOKA, Which backed its demands for union with Greece with bombs and bullets. AGREEMENT ENDS RIFT The agreement at last heals the serious rift between NATO partners Greece and Turkey that had threa tened the Atlantic Alliance on its vital southern flank. Both once de manded possession of the strategic island. The agreement means that 400,000 Greek speaking Cypriots and 100, 000 turkish Cypriots will be running their own affairs, perhaps within, a year when independence is pro claimed. A bill must be passed in the British Parliament before surren der of British sovereignty over most signed by Greek Foreign Minister of Cyprus becomes a reality.

Jim Long said that she would have to bring that question up be fore the Council as a separate case. Miss Hornsby was not available for comment as to whether or not she intended to pay the $3 or take her case before Student Council. In giving the decision the Coun cil stated that it is nowhere im plied in the Student Constitution that a student organization has the power to levy fees, and that only the Student Legislature can appro priate funds. The Council suggested that a legal means of collecting fees proved by them, the University would collect the fees. Chairman Long emphasized that the above procedure was only a suggestion.

The theme she will use for the Handbook is "Fredom and Respons ibility." "Through the Women's Hand book this year, by using a theme of 'Freedom and Responsibility,' I hope to convey to the incoming co ed the concept that as an individ ual she will achieve a freedom for the growth of her own ideas and philosophies and for which she alone is responsible," Miss Daniels said.

But in essence, it will follow the broad outlines of the plan worked out by Karamanlis and Menderes in Zurich last week. This calls for a Greek Cypriot President of Cyprus and a Turkish Cypriot vice president. Each will have veto powers. There will be a national assem bly, 70 per cent Greek Cypriot and 30 percent Turkish Cypriot. This pro portion also w ould be applied in corn- fairs. munal assembles handling local af- There is a chance that Cypriots may decide to become members of the British commonwealth. A major advantage would be to have the continued commercial pro tection of the sterling area. A pow erful segment of the Cyprus busi nes community is believed to favor commonwealth status. CAN STAY IN COMMONWEALTH MacMillan said tonight in the House of Commons that "if, in due course, the government of Cyprus declares its desire to remain asso ciated with the Commonwealth, Britain, in consultation with other members of the Commonwealth, will' consider sympathetically now that desire can most properly be satis fied." The full details of the agreement will be announced in London, An kara, Athens and Nicosia next Mon day. The participants in the London conference, held in the cream and gold music room of Lancaster House, all seemed happy with the results. Greek Foreign Minister Averoff tfpped his hat as he left Lancaster and said loudly: "It's a 100 per cent agreement." Averoff 's Turkish counterpart, Zorlu, rushd to the London clinic to talk with Menderes. He smiled at the clinic entrance and told cor respondents: "I'm very, very hap py."
