skills, and sports will begin Monday.
The much expanded program is being sponsored by Economic Opportunity Programs Inc. and the UM division of continuing education. Dean M. Robert Allen of the UM Division of Continuing Education is program director.
“The program will give the kids a chance to see what life is like out of the ghetto,” Student Coordinator Bill Pratt said, referring to the 11-15 year old ghetto youths enrolled in the program.
“We want to tap the intellectual capacity of “problem kids” that nobody wants to work with” he said. “It’s about time that somebody gave a damn about the kids that nobody seems to want to care about.”
The program will feature classes in speech, drama, music, and art, with small groups and individual instruction in these areas scheduled from 9 to 11:30 a.m. Monday through Friday.
Cadet Awaits Decision
A three-man military “administrative” committee will return a decision next week in the case of UM ROTC dropout Ardell Faul’s attempt to refuse induction into the Army.
The committee met in session with Faul and his lawyer Tuesday and, after only 30 minutes of testimony, adjourned to render a decision.
Faul’s lawyer offered no evidence for the defense, but instead asked for a continuance of the hearing until July 20 so he could further prepare his case.
A second attorney specializing in military law was hired by Faul, but could not be present at the Tuesday meeting.
•	Faul could be stripped of his commission and become eligible for the draft. This could mean the case could go into civil court if Faul should still refuse induction. He says he would.
•	The ruling could be in favor of Faul and release him from obligation.
The committee had met with Faul and his lawyers previously on June 29, when the Army had presented its case. Evidence then included Faul’s contract which obligates him to serve four years active duty in return for a four-year tuition scholarship to UM.
Faul said if he wins his case, he will repay the $7,000 awarded him.
Presiding officer Col. Elvin Kreilick ruled that a continuance could not be granted and that the attorney’s refusal to continue his case would mean officially that he had presented no evidence and the meeting would be adjourned for the officers to render a decision.
The committee of officers has several choices in the decision they could render: • The case could be referred to a higher military court.
The hearing Tuesday was termed an administrative action by Army personnel and was not governed by strict courtroom procedure.
If the verdict is unfavorable, Faul’s lawyers plan to appeal the case, claiming that he has not been granted due process of law without the benefit of an official courtroom trial.
Faul believes the outcome of his case should determine the actions of other ROTC cadets as well as Army procedure in future hearings of this type.
“This is probably one of the most legitimate emergency requests that SAFAC ever had,” Bukhair said, while presenting his request to the committee.
“Students have a right to get a yearbook.”
Bukhair said that the second edition will not have a slip case and will probably be printed in paperback with “a high gloss, chrome-coat cover.”
The $8,200 will cover the cost of printing for more than 1,000 books.
“SAFAC has a positive obligation to provide an Ibis for every student who wants one,” said Mark Krasnow, USG president and chairman of the summer SAFAC. “We’d have to refund their money if they didn’t get the book.”
The motion for the allocation passed unanimously.
A motion was also passed to balance the USG books for the 1969-70 school year.
At the next SAFAC meeting, the resurfacing of the tennis courts will be discussed.
