By JOE SALTZMAN Daily Trojan City Editor

The edict was handed down to Harmon after he ad-— mitted violating Rule 5 nf the
Trojans Seek To Plan Clubs For Politicians
Two SC students are seeking the reversal oí what they believe lo be a university policy which restricts all student clubs which seek to promote political candidates to off-campus activity*
Ron Sugarman and Dave Goldberg, both members of a student s-for-Kennedy voutn organization. lold the Daily I rojan yesterday 1hat the university restriction violates all principles of the demorcatic political §ro-cess.
Under university regulations no student group organized »round a national political candidate can receive official campus recognition, they said.
They feel thai campus recognition should be extended to any siudent political organization.
Only Two Club*
At present the only two such organizations on campus are the officially okayed Trojan Young Republicans and Trojan Democrats.
Sugarman and Goldberg both feel that *11 SC students can t be grouped into these two categories.
“There are many Republicans who are supporting Democratic Presidential candidates, and likewise. ther are many Democrats who support Republican candidates,” said Sugarman.
The Ivvo have been seeking an administration okay to allow oiher political groupings on campus since the beginning of the yea r.
All iheir attempts have been met by negative replies, they said.
Robert Jani. coordinator of special evenis, told them that SC would be showing political favoritism if Ihe school allowed such political clubs to spring up on campus, said Sugarman.
Among organizations pushing for on-campus permiis are student« for Sen. .John Kennedy tD-Mass. >, Stuart Symington. (D-Mo.) and Lyndon Johnson (D-Tex.i. On the Republican side of the picture, students want a Richard Nixon club.
By not allowing these organizations on campus, the clubs are doomed lo failure, asserf Sugarman and Goldberg.
They pointed out that private and public university and college campuses throughout the nation permit such organizations on their campuses.
No off-campus club can use vhool facilities for meetings nr take advantage of school puhli-city dev ires, including posters and Troy Meets notices, they *a id.

Illegal Gimmicks Harmon was brought before the Board of Inquiry because of illegal campaign practices which included a ‘sticker-type” gimmick, not approved by Elections Commissioner Ed Tannenbaum.
"Because of this ruling sanctioned by Dean of Students Robert Downey, Harmon will not be allowed to campaign in any way, either by speaking to groups, hanging up posters or anything,” he said.
"If he does, he will be jeopardizing his qualifications as a candidate in the ASSC election race for Junior Class president,” he added.

May Quit Race
lie has told his constituents that he was considering the possibility of dropping out of Ihe race because the time lost for campaigning and the pressure exerted by late classwork and missed exams might prove too much for him during election w eek.
Metzler. a scholarship student and a prime contender for the presidency, is, by Elections Board proclamation. Ihe only candidate that can legally campaign for the office.
Besides Election Board reprimands and sickness, charges of dirtv politics were still being leveled by ASSC candidates.
Dirty Politics Following on the heels of Senior Class presidential candidate Vince Stefano's charge that one of his campaign banners had been pulled down and burned up
told of equally dirty politics aimed at his campaign.
"There has been some dirty politicking going on which included opposing forces throwing rocks at my banner at 28th st. and University ave.," he said.
“They ripped my banner down and destroved two of my posters.” he added.

Caltech Man Explains Author Finds Creation Still Mystery Tales Origin Before Novel
HUMANITIES
By SHARON WALKER
Folk tales should be traced back to their closest known origin. and the author should make up his own version from there, a famous children’s author and illustrator said yesterday.
Marcia Brown, winner of the Caldecott Medal for her version of “Cinderella” in 1955, lectured on art and literature for children in Dohenv Library yesterday afternoon.
“Before I began work on my present book. I traveled to Sicily. where I was inspired bv the beautiful country,” she said.
“It was then 1hat I chose my next book, a Sicilian folk tale, because I knew7 I could recreate the same wonderful fresh quality in watercolor illustrations.
“Sometimes when ideas jusl won't seem to come, I leave my work behind me and think of something else. When I return to it later my mind is fresh and it is easier to create,-’ Miss Brown explained.

1 wer to this question is that there is no answer.
But astronomers and astrophysicists do propose two important theories on the universe —where it began and where it's going.
One is that of the dying universe, the other that of an infinite universe with no actual beginning and no foreseeable end.
Those astrophysicists who paint a picture of the dying universe see a “celestial graveyard” as the final fate for millions of stars making up the seemingly endless universe, said Dr. Greenstein.
White Dwarfs
They base this theory on their j . observations of white dwarf j 1 stars -— stars which eventually “run down” their energy sup-• plies and contract to make up for this.
“When a star runs out of nuclear fuel, it starts to run around rapidly,” said Dr. Greenstein.
The star makes up for its loss of nuclear fuel the source of , its energy- by contracting grav-itationally, shrinking and col-1 lapsing in size.

Drama Tutor To Turn Key On Authors
The plays of Tennessee Williams. Arthur Miller and William Inge will be discussed by Dr. James H. Butler, deMille professor of drama, at today's noon humanities lecture.
The SC professor will speak to a group of medical students in the main auditorium of the Los Angeles County hospital on the psychological aspects of the works of the three authors.
“The plays of Williams and Inge show' a great many psychoanalytical observations, while 1hose of Miller lean more toward observations of the social strata,” Dr. Butler said.
He will spend much time discussing Williams, whom he considers “one of the world s greatest living playwrights.”
Williams’ Plays
The drama professor will read from “Sweet Bird of Youth" and “Last of My Solid Gold Watches.” Ihe latter being one of Williams' early one-act plays.

Audience Identifies
Everyone, of course, usually identifies himself with certain characters in a play. However, w'hen I first saw the drama, it made a particularly lasting impression on me -- one which I have since thought about and analyzed in relationship to myself.” Miss Kanne says.
Virginia, the part Miss Kanne plays, meets herself at various ages and encounters different intimates of her life in a dream —but she meets them as strangers.
KHale to Problem
“These meetings all relate to the psychological problem she is currently experiencing and allow' to her to come to “A Clearing in the Woods,” where many of the obstacles in her life seem to fade away.” the SC actress says.
Recause of the symbolic fantasy nf the play, the role of Virginia must h^ approached with simplicity to avoid drowning emotions with too much in-tellcctualism, she says.
The drama’s symbolism may also present another problem, Miss Kanne feels.
“Because the women who play
Virginia during earlier stages of her life were chosen for ability, not similarity in appearance. The audience may have difficulty accepting these women who also appear on the stage with Virginia at the same time as real
people,” she points out.
name white dwarf.
Stars Decay
Finally, after having expended its energy much too quickly, the star begins to decay. It becomes faint and cools off, said the Caltech astrophysicist.
Scientists think that these stars will then eventually vanish from the visible universe because Iheir extreme compactness will prevent them from ever reexpanding.
No such “black dwarfs” have ever been sighted, however, said Dr. Greenstein.
A second theory, one currently in dispute with the "universe running downhill” theory, is the universe is infinite.
No End
Matter and the eventual creation of stars, as well as the sun and the earth, comes from nowhere and cannot reach a final death.
This would mean that no age could be affixed to the universe and that no end to it is envisioned. New stars will constantly be created as older ones die.
“This is a step down from the drama which would have created everything at once,” said Dr. Greenstein.
He said that atoms are found of different ages, as pvjdenced in radioactive materials found on earth.
Reject Theory
This would lead scientists to reject an older theory which proposes that the entire universe
was created at a single time, said Dr. Greenstein.
Dr. Greenstein and four other prominent Caltech scientists will delve into the question of “The : Immense Design” of the universe on an hour-long NBC' show

UCLA's decision to dismiss any student found guilty of cheating or plagiarism is a wise move in the eyes of Dr. William H. McGrath, SC’s dean of students—men.
However, a similar move is not necessary or even desired at this university, said Dean McGrath.
•‘Disciplinary measures ai all universities mav and ought to take different forms.’’ he pointed out.
The UCLA action was prompted hv an incident two weeks ago in which Dr. Robert A. Rone, assistant professor of English, flunked If) students and lowered the grades of 20 others for plagiarism of a literary term paper.
At SC penalties and punishments for students found cheai-ing in or out of class are left up to the individual instructor.
Any attempt to take such power out of their hands would be an infringement of academic freedom, he said,
“I feel we should continue to recognize the profesaoi a perog-ative to initiate disciplinary action himself,” Dr. McGrath continued.
t'niver.sity pntirv allows an in-
structor one of four choices in
disciplining »Indent* found cheatinz or plagiarizing, he said.
The professor may take no action at all and merely give the I student a reprimand; he may lower the guilty student’s grade: i he may give Ihe student an F i in the class; or he may make a : recommendation for further action by the university.
"The university doe» recommend that, an F in the course be given to a student guilty of undesirable examination cod-'duct,” noted Dr. McGrath.
Of course, any policy of automatic dismissals for cheating runs the risk of placing a black-white emphasis r»n the matter, the dean said.
"And I do not like any such i iron-clad categories,” he added.
Before the new UCLA decision, the question of whether the cheating was premeditated and whether it was a first or second offense entered into the decision as to disciplinary action.
Under the new policy, a UCLA professor can handle disciplinary action in any way he see* fit without referring to the Far. ulty-Administration Commit te«
on Student Conduct.
