Of The Hurricane Staff
Two major amendments to the Student Body Government Constitution were introduced at the Senate meeting Monday by SBG President Mark Krasnow.
The first amendment
called for the removal of the word “undergraduate” from the SBG Constitution, to open the way for representation of graduate students in SBG.
The second amendment called for a reapportionment of the seats on the SBG Sen-
ate. The new Senate would consist of 30 senators; 13 from the on-campus living areas, divided according to the population of each designated area; 13 from the academic divisions, also appor-

lohn Froines Discusses War
J	... and planned May demonstration
By JEFF WOLLMAN
v Of Ths Hurricane Staff
“The quiet period is over in America,” Chicago Eight defendant John Froines, told UM students Sunday night in the Ibis Cafeteria.
“I see no apathy — everyone says nothing is happening this year . . . they are wrong — it is!” Froines told the crowd of about 400 at the opening of the Greek System’s Focus ’71 activities.
He cited a joint peace treaty between the peoples of the United States, South Vietnam and North Vietnam which has been signed by 250 Vietnam veterans, university student body presidents, and student associations from both sides.
Froines announced that a week of nonviolent civil disobedience has been planned for Washington, D.C., in May. “If the government does not stop the war on May first, the people of the United States are going to stop the government,” he said.
Froines then read the introduction to the peace treaty: “Be it known that the American and Vietnamese people are not enemies.
“The war is carried out in the name of the people of the United States, but without our consent.” Here Froines added that a recent Harris Poll indicated that 71 per cent of Americans want immediate withdrawal.

Hurricane News Editor
Room and board rates in UM residence halls will increase from $8 to $93 | depending on where a student lives beginning September, 1971 James C.
| Grimm, director of housing, has announced.
Grimm said a projected operating deficit of approximately $750,000 in | housing for this fiscal year is the primary reason for increasing the rate.
‘‘The deficit detracts from the university’s total educational program,”
| Grimm said. “The new rates will attempt to reduce the deficit.”
n
Grimm said the vacancies in the dormitories this1 year were not the | cause of the rate increase.
“The vacancies we had this year had no effect on the rate increase be-| cause we started looking into a rate increase in November,” he said. “As we | add residence halls and pay for them the deficit goes up.”
1	Grimm said another factor
was a cost analysis which revealed rental fees paid for only 50 per cent of the costs in the air-conditioned dormitories.
“We were not charging enough to cover the cost,” he said.
Concerning the board rate Increase, Grimm said this is the first board rate increase in two years.
“Over the last 24 months the cost of food has gone up in both wholesale and retail areas, as well as labor,” he said.
Grimm said he is not worried about the large number of students moving off campus because of the rate increase.
“If I thought that would happen I wouldn’t have recommended the rate increase,” he said. “But I don’t think the increase is that extreme.”
Grimm said that a cost study showed it was slightly cheaper to live on campus but admitted to certain “advantages and disadvantages.” Although he is predicting almost no vacancies for the fall semester Grimm said he would convert on-campus apartments into married stu-dent housing and move apartment residents into the dormitories, if there are too many vacancies in the dorms.
Grimm said he has compared UM to other private schools in the South and UM is in the same housing price range.
“We are in the same price realm as other private schools such as Emery, Tu-lane and Vanderbilt,” he said.
In spite of the rate In crease Grimm said there will be no major improvements in the residence halls.
“It is difficult to justify any major renovations of the dorms when the university is in such a tight financial bind,” Grimm said.
A total of 4800 single students and 280 married students live on campus. Letters announcing the new rates have been mailed to the parents of resident students.
A memorandum has been sent to each resident student advising him of the increase and that the $100 fall housing deposit is due.
Fired Up
Campus apartment dweller Mike Hutslar isn’t looking for his contact lens, he’s cleaning up after an early morning fire broke out in his apartment. It is believed

that the Wednesday morning fire in Apartment 37 D originated in a miniature candle manufacturing plant. Hutslar, a former member of the UM Basketball team, probably wishes he’d kept his dunking on the court.
6America’s Quiet Period Over
“It drains America of her resources, her youth, and her honor,” he said.
Froines, who believes Americans are beginning to learn about the war, described some of the activities anticipated on May 2 in Washington.
“Firstly, the capitol will be surrounded by thousands of young people. Secondly, the only road leading to the Pentagon will be blocked with hundreds of used cars. And thirdly, The legislature will be surrounded and shut down.”
The strategy, as Froines describes it, is to bring the government to a standstill for a full week. Special attention was devoted to affirming the non-violent nature of these events. “Violence is undesirable both ideologically and politically,” said Froines.
Bernie Siegel, chairman of Focus ’71, said he was “pleased with the turnout but even more pleased by the enthusiasm of the crowd.”
A group of 50 students remained after the speech and rapped with Froines until 1:30 a.m.
“The theme of Focus ’71 is an encounter with modern man, felt that Froines is representative of a historical change we are witnessing in America today,” Siegel said.
Froines’ parting comment was: “The Mayday Tribe is ready. The war ends in May!”
