Of Thi Hurricane Stiff
Rocky Walters, chairman , of the Gadflies, presented to President Henry King Stanford yesterday morning a poll of 1,935 students with 62.8 per cent calling for the elimination of Reserve Officers Training Corps for credit.
Stanford, receiving the poll, said, “I’m happy that your petition does not request the elimination of ROTC programs on this campus.

Classes May Be
Cancelled
. By LINDA KLEINDIENST "	Of Th* Hurricani Stiff
Junior class representative, Bruce O’Boyle, introduced a resolution a t yesterday’s USG council meeting calling for the Vice President for .Academic Affairs, Dr. Armin Tiropp, to consider scheduling May 26, as a reading day instead of a regular class day.
The resolution was passed Unanimously.
O’Boyle’s resolution points out the fact that Monday is the only class day between the end of the previous Friday’s classes and the start of Tuesday’s finals, and that many students have voiced the opinion that Monday can best serve their purpose as a “reading day” instead of a regularly scheduled class day.
The resolution asks that Ihe vice president for Academic Affairs recommend (by memorandum) that all faculty members consider cancelling Monday’s classes in favor of a “reading period” if such would not hinder the regular plan of the individual professor.
“We can't come nut and ask them to say that all the classes are cancelled,” said O B o y 1 e, “because some teachers have that lesson included in their teaching flan. And, we can’t jeopardize the academic freedom of the faculty.”
He said that because so many students had questioned why Monday was not a leading day, “I thought this a good time, before Vaiting any longer, to make that day a reading day.”
This year’3 .alendar was approved under the Dennis Richard USG administration, before the idea for instituting
two day reading period ^\,Tore the beginning of ex-|un$ had been decided upon.
tinue to be available to students at the University of Miami on an elective basis.”
Stanford said he is awaiting the recommendation of the Academic Planning Committee on the matter of academic credit for non-academic activities before officially responding to the Gadflies petition.
The Gadflies emphasized that they did not advocate or desire the removal of ROTC from this campus. Walters said that the poll is the most rational means of conveying the feeling of the student and faculty body.
Of 36 faculty members responding to the poll, 25 indicated their preference for a ROTC program on a noncredit basis and 11 voted to maintain the present system.
“It is much more desirable to have a goodly portion of the officers for our armed services trained on the nation’s civlian campuses,” Stanford said, “rather than exclusively in the service academies.
“These would have to be expanded to accommodate the needs of the services if the universities were to require the departure of ROTC programs from their campus.”
The Gadflies explained that they turned to a poll when members of ROTC refused to debate the issue in a public forum and in the “sincere belief that the students and faculty should be consulted on such issues of concern to the UM.”
Walters said that it is the responsibility of the University to investigate those courses of questionable calibre.
“It is the belief of the majority of those who have voted in this poll, that ROTC Is a course of questionable academic content,” he said.
“It is our hope that this Continued on page 3
break. He claims that some 15 others were caught by checkers that same day, but that, as of yet, none of them have faced charges.
“I am guilty of using the card,” he said, “but I don’t believe that my hearing and its outcome were fair decisions.”
“I was told,” he went on, “that only Dr. Gennett and Mr. Jaski, who was presenting the charges, would be there."
Kalichman revealed, however, that Administrative Assistant Roger LeMaster was also present and that he remained with Dr. Gennett while he and Jaski left the room for final deliberation.
“HI s (LeMaster’s) influence was unfair because of some parking tickets I had seen him about just the week before,” he claimed.
Kalichman said that Dr. Dr. Gennett and Jaski did not believe parts of his story.
At the time he was caught, two other persons were also stopped with falsified meal tickets. One of them jumped the checker to grab back his card and made an unsuccessful attempt at escape, Kalichman said.
“At the hearing, they insisted I was in with these other two, but I had no idea

About 50 people, including UM students, picketed the A&P Food Store on LeJeune Road in Coral Gables Saturday morning tn support of the California grape strikers.
Carrying signs which read, “A&P Sells Grapes of Wrath — Don’t Shop Here,” and “A &P a t h y Keeps Farm Workers Hungry,” the demonstrators marced up and down the sidewalk in drizzling rain which made the paint on the signs run. Other

Gallfly Wallers Presents ROTC Petition

The Citizens Security Board of Coral Gables and police chief William Kimbrough decided last week that the price of keeping UM calm should be put at $8,000 for the past year.
With Kimbrough’s estimate in mind, the Board discussed a motion which would ask UM to repay the city for police protection used on three occasions since last year, asking what UM proposes to about the two-percent segment of students who periodically require police presence on campus.
UM President Henry King Stanford pointed out that UM adds to the community both culturally and economically. “They talked about the economic situation," he said. “I pointed out that we are working on an $85 million budget and that much of this would be spent in the Coral Gables area." Stanford added that students and their parents also contribute heavily to the Coral Gables economy.
“Whatever it costs to supply police protection is very small comparatively,” he said. The motion to charge the university $8,000 was tabled.
Coral Gables Police Chief William Kimbrough told the Board he feels UM should pick up the entire tab for the extra-cost police operations.

signs proclaimed, “The A&P Motto is ‘We Care’ — Now Make Them Prove It,” and “Support Cesar Chavez.”
The demonstration was organized by Manuel Sanchez, an appointee of Cesar Chavez, head of the California grape-picker’s union, and leader of the strike.
Several of the demonstrators passed out pamphlets carrying a picture of a small child and reading, “Every California grape you buy helps keep this child hungry.”
Many shoppers and passers-by voiced disapproval of the marchers. A woman driving by stopped her car and shouted, “What’s the matter with you now, you dummies?” and a man leaving the store informed them, “You ignorant asses. You ought to be ashamed, all of you.”
A woman entering the store evaded the pamphlets offered to her and said, “I’m just going in for some milk.” Another shopper told a companion, “I’m going to pray for them and hope God will change all their souls.”
"If you shove one of those things in my face once more. I’ll beat your head in," one man said, when offered a pamphlet. Another accepted one and tore it up, saying, “This is what I think of you.”
Other shoppers accepted the literature, and former USG president Mike Abrams, who was handing out pamphlets, said that he talked several into joining the march.
Store employees appeared annoyed by the demonstrators. Hurricane photographers Bruce Goldstein and Bob Hoffman were evicted from the store while trying to take pictures. Hurricane staff writer Margie Gross, while checking a report that there were no grapes in the store, was accused of shoplifting by two employees.
“I didn’t accuse her of stealing,” said one of the employees. "But I saw her drop something in her purse.”
“They started following me around as soon as they saw my camera," Miss Gross said. "The only thing I put in my purse was my pen. The charge was so ridiculous I didn't even want to argue with them.”
Miss Gross offered to let the police search her purse,

SAFAC 15 Hike Is Back
By LINDA KLEINDIENST
Of Th* Hurnc*n* Staff
Students will vote on a $5 general increase in the Student Activity Fee tomorrow.
The resolution passed by the USG council calls for a referendum to ascertain approval or disapproval of an increased budget for student activities.
The referendum will be placed on the ballot as follows: “Do you approve a five dollar ($5) increase in the Student Activity Fee to be used for the construction of a rathskeller and-or a coffee house, a legal aid fund to be structured by the students’ government, students’ publications (eg. Hurricane and Ibis), student organizations (eg. cheerleaders and debate), general student activities (eg. baseball and football games), and the Lecture Series.”
It was submitted to the council by Jim Yasser, USG president, Stu Weiss, USG treasurer, Marty Weinkle, USG vice president, John Dohm and Bill Council, sophomore representatives.
“This referendum has to be passed if students want the rathskeller," said Yasser. “We need $200.000 minimum for the rathskeller, and if we don’t get $50,000, we won't be able to start building it”
“The increase will be vital-needed for student organizations now receiving funds from SAFAC and for those in the future who would like to receive funds from SAFAC,” said Weiss.
“A 11 the organizations receiving funds are student organizations,” he continued. “No funds will go to the administration.”
The voting will take place in the lower lounge of the student union all day, starting at 9 a.m. Voting will be by paper ballot.
“The ballot boxes will be taken around to the cafeterias at lunch time,” said Bill bly at dinner time,” said Bill Sheeder, Director of Student Activities, “and they could possibly be taken to the fra-* ternity houses. We're going to move the election out to the people.”

Senior Killed by Gunman In Restaurant Robbery
By MARK BERMAN
Ol Th* Hurrictn* Stall
Stanley Kadomiya, a UM senior described by his teachers as a quiet, but very conscientious student, was murdered Friday night at his father’s restaurant.
Stanley was going out the back door of the Oriental Take-Out Restaurant at 1486 N.W. 62 St., Liberty City when he was shot twice in the back of the head by a Negro man. He had been on his way to get the family car to take his father and mother home as the restaurant closed at 10:25 p.m.
He died on the way to Jackson Memorial Hospital.
The assailant, described as a Negro wearing a sailor hat and a gold jumper, then robbed Stanley’s father of $150 as he was tallying receipts.
Stanley was a loner, according to University members who knew him. He sat in the single seat at the front of his Business 303 auditorium class in LC.
“He was an excellent student,” said Thor W. Bruce, his 303 instructor. “I could always count on him for a quick answer.”
With a better than 3.0 average, during his last two semesters, Stanley was planning on joining the service
after graduation in June.
“Hard worker,” and “diligent student” was the way most of his professors labeled the 21-year-old-senior who lived off-campus with his parents and spent weekends helping at the restaurant.
Yasugo Kadomiya, Stanley’s 53 year old Japanese-American father, said that the slayer was a 5’7”, about 20 year old man.
Kadomiya said he was running to the back of the store in pursuit of the bandit when he saw his son lying by the door.
“I held him in my arms and tried to talk to him,” Kadomiya said. “He was unconscious but I could see no blood. ■ hen I lifted him higher and then I saw the blood on the back of his head. He couldn’t talk to me.”
The Kadomiya's restaurant was robbed last year and is one of several businesses owned by Oriental-Ameri-cans which have been troubled by theft in that area.
The “get tough" policy initiated by the late Police Chief Walter Headley, was sparked by the murder of a food
store owner of Chinese origin more than a year ago.
Stanley lived with his parents at 955 N.E. 89 Terrace.
