Club Membership Is Not Screened Here, Long Says Can the New Left Club be recog nized by the University if their members are also active in the non-University Progressive Labor Club? "We don't screen the members of school organizations," William Long, Dean of Men, answered yes terday when this question was put to him. The New Left has a strong Pro gressive Labor Club membership.

It has been al lowed to hold meetings on campus while in the process of formula tion. Recognition will come when the New Left meets the approval of the Dean of Men. The purpose of. the New Left is to "familiarize the students who are interested with the principles and theory of Marxism," accord ing to Rudy Edwards, moderator of the group. The club is holding seminars, which are divided into six sections: Historical Materialism. Capitalism and Economics, Socialist Society, Humanism and Alienation of Man, Dialectical Materialism, and Tac tics Used During Revolutionary Jviovements. The New Left has been reor ganized since last year. The form er organization, who claimed to hold "discussions of any views left of Kennedy," was dissolved last May at the request of its leaders. Walker 'Escapes Confinement' DALLAS (UPI) Attorney Rob ert B. Morris said Thursday for mer Maj. Gen. Edwin A. Walker agree'd to psychiatric examination , I he defeat of the amendment came after a heated debate which was limited to half an hour. The proposal, which would have opened the IDC membership to members of fraternities but not pledges, need ed a two-thirds majority vote to become effective. The roll-call vote was 24 for and 23 against. . The newspaper ruling came as a result of complaints by the ad ministration concerning the increas ing obscenity of dorm papers. Now, according to IDC President Bruce Welch, "If anything which violates the limits of good taste and de cency" appears in one of these newspapers, its editor will be con sidered in violation of the campus code. Another measure passed at the meeting provided for a dormitory referendum on an increase in dorm itory social fees. Presently this fee is set by the Board of Trustees at $.75 per resident per semester. Last spring the IDC passed a resolution urging that this fee be increased to $1.50 per resident per semester. According to IDC officials, this will probably be the proposal used in the dormitory referendum to be held at the time of Fall Elections. If the proposal is approved it will be sent to the Board of Trustees for consideration. In other action, the Council elect ed Gordon Appell, IDC representa tiv from Joyner Dorm, to the posi tion of IDC court clerk, which had been vacated by resignation. His election left a vacancy on the court and Bob Payton, IDC Representa tive from Craige Dorm, was elect ed to fill it.

Negotiations Still 012J For Prisoners MIAMI (UPI) New York at torney James B. Donovan flew here from Havana Thursday and said he was still hopeful that 1,113 Cu ban invasion prisoners will be re leased after he works out further details in his negotiations with Fi lel Castro. "The negotiations have not bro ken down," Donovan said. "There are simply some points that have not been resolved," he said. Don ovan, who met with Castro Wed nesday night, said he talked with a high official of the Cuban gov ernment Thursday, before board ing the plane for Miami. He said he planned to stay in Miami a day or two and have a bursitis condition treated while he is here awaiting word from Ha vana. He said he expects to hear from Castro within the next 48 hours. . . "We have made a definite, con crete proposal to Dr. Castro. His government is considering it. It represents what we believe is the maximum we can offer. We believe this offer is in a reasonable area," Donovan said He did not go into the matters, still to be considered but described them as "some new questions in specifics." Donovan said the propostion of the Cuban Families Committee, which he represents in th nego tiations, does not include any cash. "My work does not involve one dollar in cash," Donovan said. He said the proposal involves mdicines, drugs and medical sup plies, including infants' food "which represents the recognition by the American people of the need among infants an dolder people in Cuba." Donovan said there had been pledges of supplies from organi zations in Europe and South Amer ica interested from a humanitarian standpoint and from U. S. indus tries responding to a national campaign. Procession Will Begin At Old Well Dr. Robert F.

(UPD Negro James Meredith walked the Uni versity of Mississippi campus Thursday without gathering a crowd. Meredith's escort of four U. S. marshals was never far from his side, but hecklers and groups of curious students were notably ab sent. He walked about a block to a laundry by himself, and entered and left classes while the marshals waited for him at the curb. Students he met on the walka ways barely gave him a second look.

The old rule required 80 per cent of the active members of a fra ternity to have a C average or the fraternity would lose rushing privileges after two semesters. Long emphasized that the 80 per cent rule was suspended, and not abolished. He said that the future of the new regulation depended on consciencious enforcement by the IFC and a responsible attitude among the fraternities. Jim Dillashaw, IFC president, yesterday expressed a preference for the new rule. "It places the emphasis on the individual, where it belongs," he said. "A feeling of responsibihty for the rule, which was suggested by the students rather than by the administration, should aid its suc cess." Dillashaw said that the IFC would enforce the rule strictly. "We are especially careful to check on ex-fraternity members disaffiliated because of grades who might attend closed parties, play in intramural sports, or otherwise commit infractions," he said.
