Second Time This Year
n's Veto Denies Ap
To Central From State Legislature
For the second time this year
CMU has been denied a $282,-
750 appropriation from the
state legislature.
Acting governor Milliken
last week followed the footsteps of Gov. Romneys' decision earlier when he voted an
item in the education appropriation bill which included an
appropriation for CMU.
Dr. N. C. Bovee, vice president of business and finance,
stated that the loss of the supplemental appropriation will
make the budgeting operation
for the University "very difficult" for the remainder of
the year, but added he did not
forsee any immediate crisis for
the University's 8,200 enrollment .
CMU took on additional
students this year over and
above their allotment with
the understanding from the
legislature that more funds
were forthcoming.
in response to the veto Dr.
Bovee said, "We cannot assume
wis is the final consideration
°t the measure by the legislature." He went on to say that
it"is the same measure that
was  orginally   cut   from   the
original appropriation by the
governor and re-instated this
year in the form of a new bill."
He said that there is always
a chance that the veto couid
»e overriden or that a deficiency bill could be introduced
"i an attempt to make, up the
vetoed appropriation. He also
stipulated that possibly noth-
ins= at all would be done.

Kowalski commented that in
order to override the Governor's decision the House and
Senate would have to pass the
bill by a three-fourths majority .
Dr .Bovee commented that
Central would have to make
adjustments in their present
budget by reducing  some
operations,, e quipment and
supplies, but that the adjustments would not impair the
student body.
He concluded that "You can
not separate dollars and people," referring to the fact that
in order to increase the University's enrollment, the budget would have to be increased
accordingly.
First Speaker Series Lecture
Features Top Anthropologist
Dr. Ashley Montagu, anthropologist and social biologist will speak on "On Being
Human" at 8 p.m., Tuesday in
Warriner Auditorium.
Dr .Montagu is a consultant
to the United Nations Education, Social and Cultural Organization, He was educated at
the University of London, and
earned his doctorate in anthropology at Columbia University. He was Chairman of
the Department of Anthropology at Rutgers- University and
professor of Anatomy at New
York University. He has also
Served as, visiting lecturer on
sociology at Harvard and Regents Professor at the University of California.
His writings include "How to
Find Happiness and Keep It,"
"Competition and Cooperation*'
and "Man in Process." In his
book, "On Being Human," he
charges, "Unless Western man
is able to release himself from
the degrading tyranny of his
enslavement to the religion of
economics, he is doomed to
self-destruction. We must remove economics as the dominant motive from human relations and make human rela
tions the dominant motive in
economics."
In one of his most important
books "Man's Most Dangerous
Myth: The Fallacy of Race,"
he denies the significance of
racial differences as a basis for
social descrimination. Since
his appointment to the UNES
CO Committee of Experts on
Race, UNESCO has adopted
its Statement on Race which
stresses that "the myth of race
has created an enormous
amount of human and social
damage. In recent years it has
taken a heavy toll in human
lives and caused untold suffering. It still prevents the
normal development of millions of human beings and deprives civilization of the effective co-operation of productive
minds."
Dr. Montagu produced and
directed the film "One World
or None," which was acclaimed "the best documentary ever
made" by the New York Bureau of Public Opinion.
He is the first lecturer in this
year's Speakers Series, sponsored by Associated Women
Students, Men's Union and the
Student Social Activities Committee,

Explain
Kelly Requires
Team to
Petition Signing
Central football coach Bill
Kelly has made a firm stand
on his statement made Tuesday about his players signing
the Student Senate resolution
on faculty-administration relationships,
Kelly testified on the witness
stand in the Senate Investigation that players who signed
the statements would be dropped from his team.
Kelly said to his gridders
"if you want to sign the petition, go ahead, but don't plan
on playing football here."
Yesterday, Kelly disclosed
that 11 players and one man
ager signed the petitions. They
were called into Kelly's office
Wednesday "on their own accord" to make a statement to
him as to the reason why they
signed the petitions.
"All signed without reading
the petitions and all were misinformed by the carrier as to
what the content of the petition was," Kelly said.
The 12 members mentioned
will be judged by their statements as to whether or not
they will remain on the Chip
team. Kelly said that no other
members of the team signed
the petitions, but if any did,
they would be immediately
dropped from the team.
"My decision today is just
as strong as it ever was. I expect a man to know right from
wrong. No man will play for
me who goes by the wrong
course."
