Defense Plans Set By Alert Officials
A request for students to avoid panic, excitement and attend all classes was voiced by Noble Hendrix, dean of students, in view of the Cuban crisis.
“There is a planned operation for the safety of the student body in case of an alert, but at the present time there is no need for anxiety,” said Dean Hendrix.
“The University feels deep concern and responsibility for the students and will exercise intelligence in caring for their safety,” he remarked.
Dade County Civil Defense headquarters reports that three years ago a disaster committee of UM administrators and civilians organized a plan in case of any type of war threat.

He pointed out that searches and seizures can be prohibited without a search warrant under Florida statutes.
Florida statutes say a warrant must also be obtained to search private property for illegal alcoholic beverages.
“We believe that the UM has the right to enter and inspect the living quarters of its tenants,” the letter read in part.
“We do not feel, however, that this can be construed to mean search of personal property in the interest of enforcing the law, Greenwald wrote.
The letter continued:
“The primacy of private property has always been one of the basic structures of democracy. I is singularly lacking where people are oppressed.
“Regulations which undermine this right and contribute to the loss of individualism • - • are repugnant.”
Miami Safe, Say Profs
All Back U.S. Act Of Blockade
Miami area safety was emphasized by University faculty members this week as American ships rushed to blockade Cuba and the prospects of a shooting war loomed on the horizon.
In a special poll conducted by the Hurricane, faculty members expressed faith in the wisdom of America’s leaders.
“There is too much intelligence in the world and the United Nations to allow this situation to get out of hand,” said Dr. G. K. Smart, professor of English.
We must be patient, Dr. Smart believes, and establish a wait and see attitude. “But the situation here is no more dangerous than in any other city with major industries,” he said.
Education professor Dr. S. L. Besvinick agrees with Dr. Smart. “Miami is a safe place,” he said.
As for the reported exodus of students from UM, Dr. Besvinick pointed out that the people abroad have learned to live under the constant threat of war.
“Americans are frightened because we never had this situation so close to home before,” he said. “We must strive to build security within our people.”
America can reduce Russia to a third rate power is the view-
Keep Calm Says HKS
President Henry King Stanford returned Wednesday night from a business trip to Mexico City and said that he was pleased with student reaction to the Cuban crisis.
“I was very pleased to learn from my associates in administration that the students had reacted to the Cuban situation with such good judgment and intelligence,” Dr. Stanford said.
“It is certainly a sign of maturity to keep calm in the face of a crisis,” he added.
point of Dr. Alfred Andrews, professor of classics.
“I feel that the prospects of war are remote because we have the capacity to reduce Russia to a third rate power in 48 hours. Therefore, the attempt to ram Soviet commercial vessels through an American blockade is for purely propoganda purposes,” Dr. Andrews said.
There is no point in panicking, remarked Dr. Douglas Browning, professor of philosophy. He feels that it is silly to get upset since there is nothing that can be done.
“Students and professors have responsibilities to continue in the pursuit of knowledge despite the world problems,” Dr. Browning
said.
“Students who leave the Uni-
versity are foolish because the danger is as great in any other major city as it is in Miami,” commented Dr. Harry Cohen, sociology professor.
Dr. E. F. Low, professor of mathematics, summed up the position of most faculty members. “One can only wait, see and be calm. We can try to make our lives as normal as possible under these circumstances.”

Parking Fee May Be Killed
Student parking fees may be eliminated as a result of a report to be issued Tuesday to Dr. Henry King Stanford, UM president, by a special student-faculty parking evaluation committee.
The committee has been meeting in closed session to discuss reduction of fines, fees and elimination of speed bumps from the hoqsing areas.
The committee is composed of John O’Day, physical plant director, James Carney, assistant dean of faculties, N o h 1 e Hendrix, dean of students, Stu Bloch, Undergraduate Student Government president and Mike Klein, USG vice president.
“There should be a fee for de-
cals and police work, but this should be relative to the services received,” said Bloch.
There are more stickers sold than parking spaces available, according to Bloch. Students must shell out $5 to park a car on campus.
“We need more spaces or else be given something for the fee other than a hunting license,” Bloch said.
The committee will come up with a plan to fit UM needs. Bloch indicated that the new proposal may not be a copy of the 73 schools contacted in a recent administration survey.
“We have a special needs because there are many students who live at home and commute
to school,” Bloch remarked.
The speed bumps may be eliminated. A campaign to make students avoid speeding in the housing areas would then be substituted for the bumps.
USG started a program today of posters, literature, memos and personal appearances to impress on students the importance of obeying laws when the bumps are removed.
Buy A Tempo
Tempo, official campus magazine, will be on sale Monday, according to Sharlene S c h o p, editor. Price is 25 cents a copy.

ONLY MINOR INCIDENTS have marred a smooth integration at this University. The first Negro was admitted 16 months ago when officials announced that the institution had never been segregaed. Now there are several Negro stu-
dents attending classes. They are satisfied with the University, but are painfully aware that the Negro is still looked upon as different. The story of these students is on Page 7.
