According to Dr. Lynn Bartlett, coordinator of women’s residence halls and regional director of Mortar Board, the top women’s honorary, the purpose of the “Guest-in-Residence” program is to allow girls in the University an opportunity to meet face to face women who have successfully combined a career and marriage.

Co-chairmen of the visit, Adele Riddle and Sharon Capra, have a schedule planned for Mrs. Stafford which enables her to meet with all women students at the University and to speak with them.

'Chink’ Hospitalized For Examination
Chink Whitten, director of the Student Union, was admitted February 5 to Doctor’s Hospital for a suspected coronary condition. Mr. Whitten's physician has stated that Mr. Whitten will need complete bed rest in the hospital for approximately three weeks, after which he will be confined to his home for a still undetermined length of time.
Dr. William Butler, vice-president of student affairs, has assigned Dr. Thurston Adams, director of student activities, to be in charge of the Union in Mr. Whitten's absence. Mr. Whitten has asked, and is relying on. Jack Maurer, games director, Laura Morris, office manager, and Bill Gilchrist, student manager, to lake over
and handle affairs while he is out. Mr. Maurer will handle the financial affairs, and Mr. Gilchrist will look after student operations.
Mr. Whitten stated, “1 have no doubt that we have a very competent staff, and they can keep everything running smoothly while I am out.” Mr. Whitten said that “all the students and staff personnel of the Union have offered assistance and said they would help out in any way they could."
Mr. Whitten is allowed visitors and anyone who wishes to see him or send get-well messages may reach him in room 350, Doctor’s Hospital. Mr. Whitten wishes “to thank all the friends who have remembered me.”
Morton Eyes Refinements In Viet Policy
The major supply line of the Viet Cong can be disrupted without involving any civilians, according to Sen. Thurston B. Morton (R.-Ky.), in a speech to the UM student body January 10, 1966.
“Viet Nam is a big burden in Congress. This Congressional term, responsible leaders on both sides will help create the climate we need to bring this war to a close.”
He has voted against the relief measures set forth by the present administration, because, “they stifled the will to produce,” which is “necessary in our society.”
Morton looks for a great debate on Viet Nam and refinements of last terms legislation as the business of this session of Congress, rather than any new and sweeping legislation.
Ed Sehon. executive vice president of MRHA resigned Monday at the first senate meeting of the semester. His surprise resignation, effective immediately, was due to “academic pressures.”
Officers in MRHA must maintain at least a 2.0 average, according to Mr. Grimm, Director of Housing, and advisor for MRHA.
Executive president Barry Click stated Wednesday, “We are sorry to loose Ed, however, academic success is our chief objective. The election for the new vice president will be held Feb. 31, at the regular senate meeting.
The senate will hold an investigation of men’s housing rules and regulations at the meetings of Feb. 24, 31, and March 7, 1966. All men living in residence halls are urged to be present and take part in these meetings.
According to Click, “this is the first time in this university that students have taken the initiative, and had the opportunity, to make rules and regulations concerning their housing.”
Among issues already discussed are cooking facilities, maid service, and quiet hours.
The new rules and regulations will be submitted to the Dean of Men for approval.
The senate approved a request from the Young Republicans to conduct a “Voter Analysis Survey” in the men’s residence area.
Mr. Grimm announced that construction will begin on two vending machine areas in the men’s residence area. The vending areas will be similar to those near the chemistry laboratory and the LC building.
The HURRICANE is following the proceedings of the examination irregularities that occurred during the Anal exams, Jan. 1966. As soon as the facts are verified and the administration announces its plans for action, the complete story will be reported.

A View of The Real Man Beneath The Rohes of Law
Justice Douglas . . . the interpretation of the law is a responsibility that weighs heavily upon any man — predicting the standards of the world that today’s students will inherit tomorrow.
Adding his august presence to the all ready impressive number of national figures to address the UM student body is Mr. Justice William O. Douglas, Associate Justice of the Supreme Court of The United States.
Justice Douglas is speaking at UM next Wednesday, February 16, in the cafeteria of the Student Union.
The many-sided Associate Justice was born in Maine, Minnesota in 1898, the son of a Canadian Presbyterian missionary.
He attended grade and high schools in Yakima, Washington, where he taught after taking his AB from Whitman College in Walla Walla.
Interrupting Douglas' career came service as a private during the WWI. Following his military interlude, the young teacher went on to Law School at Columbia University, paying the way by many and varied jobs. Douglas received his LLB degree from Columbia Law School in 1925.
Following his graduation, Justice Douglas joined the faculty of Columbia Law School. He served capably at his Alma Mater until 1928, when he joined the staff of the Yale Law School.
While at Columbia, Justice Douglas’ speciality was the relation of law and busines, and he decided to study the problem in the field. The Justice then went to Wall Street.
His interest in this field led Douglas into various studies for the government and Yale. His work led to the re-organization of the Stock Exchange. In 1937, Douglas was named Chairman of the Securities Exchange Commission.
Justice Douglas was nominated by President Roosevelt to be an Associate Justice of the Supreme Court and took his seat on April 17, 1939.	.
On the bench Douglas belongs to the liberal bloc; off the bench the six-foot sandy-haired Justice is an inveterate and observant
traveler.
As a child, Douglas was stricken with infantile paralysis. He was determined to overcome his physical disability and did so by hiking and climbing. He’s been doing it ever since.
Arising from his wide travels, which range from Afghanistan to Greece, Turkey, India, and Tibet, his vast interest and knowledge in the affairs and people of these countries has led him to write 14 books. Several of his titles include "Strange Lands and Friendly People”, “Russian Journey”, and his latest work. “Democracy’s Manifesto”, which was printed in 1962.
Along with his work on the bench and his travels, Douglas is a member of many clubs and organizations adding yet another reason for his reputation as one of the most vital and dynamic men to serve the Supreme Court of the United States.
