Thirteen members of the administration met on Friday to organize and prepare for the Sammy Davis Jr. Benefit Show to be held on April 4, under the cosponsorship of United Black Students and UM.
Davis has agreed to give a benefit show to promote a scholarship fund that was first organized when he contributed his $500 fee for appearing at UM to UBS. He will arrive in Miami April 4 with his 20-member company — all of which are appearing without profit.
The Miami City Commission voted in its April 12 session to allow UM to use the facilities of Marine Stadium without charge for the benefit Until this time there had been no place to hold the show because of prior bookings at all of the major facilities in the area.
"We thought for a while that we were going to have to use Sammy’s suggestion and have it in the street," Chester Byrd, Association Director of the Student Union and advisor to UBS joked.
For the benefit of those persons wishing to give to the scholarship fund, UBS has obtained a tax exempt status. The new legal entity is dubbed United Black Students-Sammy Davis Jr. Scholarship Fund Inc.
Local and national musicians’ unions are being appealed to to permit Davis’ musicians to work free of

"People must be made aware of what’s going on, especially within the AWS structure itself; there’s a lack of communication,” she said.
Registrar Smith said he sees no problems in implementing the new calendar for the fall of ’71 but how the new calendar will work out in relation to the one presently used by UM he couldn’t say.
“I foresee no problems when the calendar is implemented in the fall of ’71 but I believe we would have large problems if we tried to implement it for the coming fall semester,” Smith said.
The only thing Smith was opposed to concerning the new calendar was the fast pace students and teachers will have to keep in order to get all their work done.
The new semester will be 14 weeks long and Smith said he thought that teachers will try to cover the same amount of materiakthey cov-
Cancels UM Talk
Timothy Leary, "High Priest of Pot,” who was to lecture here tonight, has cancelled his engagement.
Leary is currently appealing a 10-year sentence for possession of narcotics.
An attempt to have as a substitute William Kunstler, defense attorney for the "Chicago Seven” trial failed, therefore there will not be a lecture.
The next lecture scheduled for the UM Lecture Series will be on April 15. Mort Sahl, political satirist will be the guest speaker.	_.
The purpose of the disciplinary hearing is to determine whether or not the nine students were in violation of the University Mass Demonstration Policy.
The students charged include John Bailey, Earl De-Veaux, Walter Mitchell, Bill Pratt, Bob Rolle, Jimmy Zll-llnger, Hazel Bungy, and Bernice McDade.
"Since the University has had approximately one month to investigate this matter, and that since it appears a finding of guilty by the Disciplinary Hearing Committee will result in losses of substantial financial aid, the respondents urge that fairness and Rule VIII, therefore call for continuance of at least two school weeks,” according to the motion.
The statement was issued by Bruce S. Rogow, Lawyer and Assistant Professor of Law at UM; Ed Augustine, Chapter Chairman of the Law Students Civil Rights Research Council; and Rod McKenzie of the USG Student Rights Commission.

Carol Hall, corresponding secretary, ran unopposed.
“I don’t know any of the new board but I’m sure that as long as we have a common goal we can get a lot accomplished.
The AWS lecture series will continue on April 15, when Anson Mount, the spokesman from Playboy Magazine will speak on "New Morals and the Sex Revolution.”

Carni Gras ’70 will swing into action this Thursday and Friday from 7-11 p.m., on the 960 intramural field.
Carni Gras committee chairman John Pendleton said at least 105 booths will be in operation during the two nights of Carni Gras.
The Carni Gras Committee expects a crowd of at least 15,000 people during the two nights of Carni Gras.
"We had about 15,000 attend Carni Gras last year and with the increase in rides and booths we are expecting more people to attend,” Pendleton said.
Pendleton explained that 60 per cent of the profits of each individual booth go to the organization operating the booth. The remaining 40 per cent goes to the Carni Gras committee.
The Carni Gras Committee uses the money it gets for the set up and operation of Carni Gras. Pendleton said that about 10 per cent of the money the committee gets goes to electricians and operational expense. The remaining 30 per cent goes into the Paul R. Yarck Fund. The

The University-wide ad hoc Calendar Committee voted last week to recommend to President Henry King Stanford the adoption of new academic calendar that would end the fall semester by Christmas and the second semester by the middle of May. It would be implemented for the school year beginning 1971-72.
Before the recommendation is sent to Dr. Stanford it will be commented on by the University vice-presidents. The vice-presidents will not be asked to recommend the calendar. They will be asked their pros and cons on the calendar.
“The only thing that could stop the implementation of the new calendar for the fall of ’71 would be a large number of adverse comments

Bock added that the University bulletins containing the academic calendar for ’70-’71 have already been printed and it would mean sending out a supplement to everyone that was sent a bulletin.
A motion for continuance and clarification of charges against 8 black students and 1 white student for the February 19 sit-in at the Dean of Men’s Office has been issued to the Assistant Dean of Women Louise Mills and the Dean of Men Ron Kazuta.

from the vice-presidents, but 1 don’t foresee that,” said Dean Robert H. Bock, chairman of the Calendar Committee.
Registrar George W. Smith believes it is wiser to wait until the fall of ’71 to implement the new calendar.
"All the University bulletins containing the calendar for ’70-71 have been sent out to thousands of high schools and high school students across the country. If we changed the calendar now we would never be able to contact everyone as to the new dates," Smith said.
Dean Bock said another obstacle preventing the calendar from going into effect for the coming fall semester is that all the room and board contracts have been sent out and it would mean contacting these people also as to a change in the calendar.
er now and this will put an added strain on the students.
The dates for the academic calendar for the school year 71-72 are as follows: Registration, Aug. 30th-31st and Sept. 1st; classes begin Sept. 2nd; Thanksgiving vacation, Nov. 24th-28th; exams end, Dec. 22nd.

Grads Talk Anti-Draft
Marty Weinkle
... ‘need effort’

“We’ve obviously sensitized people,” USG Vice President Marty Weinkle said about Anti-Draft Week, which began yesterday.
Two lectures are scheduled for this week. Tonight at 8:30 p.m. in the International Lounge, Maurice J. Kutner will speak on “The Rights of Servicemen: Actives, Reserves and ROTC”
He will also speak on types of discharges, consequences of discharges and armed service court martial
cases.
Kutner is past prosecuter of the Judge Advocate General’s Corps and has also served as assistant public defender for Metropolitan Dade County. He received both undergraduate and graduate degrees at UM. Kutner recently left the criminal defender’s office for private practice.
Wednesday at 8:30 p.m., Stephen Butter, Miami attorney and author, will speak on the draft and selective service laws in the Ibis Cafeteria.
Butter has appeared on radio in 38 states and lectures on college campuses throughout the nation. His first book. The Legal Rights of Women in Florida, is written for the layman said Weinkle. His second book. Don’t Draft Me, is about Selective Service laws, the lottery system, appeal procedures and deferments.
A table will be set up in the breezeway to distribute information sheets and pamphlets during the week.
Weinkle said the recent “We Won’t Go” campaign was successful and over 750 names were signed to statements declaring that the undersigned would not be drafted as long as the war continues in Vietnam. The sheets will be sent to the National Vietnam Moratorium Committee, he said.
The Moratorium will be held April 13-15 with the theme “Fast for Peace.” Weinkle said that rallies, folk group concerts and lectures will be scheduled.
Weinkle asked that students help the Anti-Draft Week effort by flooding their draft boards with mail.

She also felt that the campaign was a rugged one because it was door-to-door. Literature and posters were only distributed within the womens residence halls.
Miss Handler has served as a member of the judicial board on Pearson Hall and on Central Council, the nucleus of AWS.
Opens Thursday Night
Improvements for this year’s Carni Gras include more room for people to walk around in and no parking on the intramural field. Pendleton said the reason for more room in between the booths is to avoid the large jam-ups of people.
