Plans for an all university dance on April 18 at the Hollywood Park Race Track were also revealed.
“We hope to have a band! at one end and a hootenany at the other,” the ASSC president said.
Senate President Dennis praised Del Conte’s plans as “fairly good,” but said the “Senate could add to them considerably.”

mittee; ASSC President Ken Del Conte; and Margaret Rivers. a Negro student at USC.
Miss Rivers claimed that there is apparent grouping of students in dormitories on the basis of religion, with Jews separated from Christian students.
She said it was not possible to group her according to her race since she was the only Negro in her dormitory, but noted approval had to be secured first from her roommate's parents.
The panelist complained that one of the questions on the application for a room asked for the student’s race.
She asserted that such a question would not be present were not discrimination the policy.
Mrs. Thorpe related that
she had been advised by the
USC housing director that,

He pointed out that even if the majority in his house wanted a Negro to be admitted, the Negro could be blackballed by only one person.
This dissenter would not be persuaded to change his vote, he explained, because Sigma Chis are trained to “stand up for their rights.”
Del Conte said he feels Negroes are now “provoking anger in the South” and are attempting to move too rap- Barr idly.
PRESS CONFERENCE — Answering questions on the Master Plan, posed by a gathering of local newsmen, are (I to r) H. Leslie Hoffman, committee chairman;
President Topping; and Leonard K. Firestone, chairman of the Board of Trustees. Hoffman reported the Plan is presently running 16 months ahead of schedule.

Fund Total Nears $31 Million Mark
Fund raising for the Master Plan has bounded past its first phase goal of $30,315,000 by $667,930 16 months ahead of schedule, H. Leslie Hoffman, national chairman of the Committee for the Master Plan, told the Board of Trustees yesterday.
Hoffman explained at the annual board meeting that the Master Plan had swung past the original 1965 goal Sept. 1, and had entered the second phase of the plan. A total of $30,982,930 has been raised in cash, and pledges.
The Master Plan has received an average of $1,126,651 per month since its inception May 17,1961.
Hoffman explained that eight of 34 major objectives of the plan have been completely funded during the 27*4 months since the Master Plan was launched with a $106,675,000 goal by President Topping.
“In addition, five others have been partially funded, but will require further effort,” Hoffman said. “Remaining beyond that point are 21 other vital objectives of the plan, representing $76,000,000 in funds, which must be obtained immediately.
“The significant part of this report is that by completing phase one ahead of schedule, we consequently can hope to be able to complete the Master Plan in the 1960s rather than in the middle of the 1970s,” Hoffman explained.
Hoffman pointed out, however, that the university must maintain the same pace that brought the Master Plan to its present position so quickly, to successfully complete the entire plan ahead of schedule.
Among objectives already funded in full are the recently dedicated $2.3 million Olin Hall of Engineering, the Ahmanson Center for Biological Sciences and a building for the Research Institute on Communist Stragegy and Propaganda.
Partially funded projects include the Von KleinSmid Center for International and Public Affairs and the Center for the Performing Arts.
“Remaining objectives, along with funds required for programs of academic enrichment, are new structures for the School of Dentistry, Medicine and Pharmacy and for the College of Letters, Arts and Sciences to name but a few,” Hoffman said.
The $30,982,930 already raised includes $2,645,903 of matching money from the Ford Foundation, which gave USC a $6.5 million conditional three-year grant last December. USC gets one Ford dollar for every three raised from other private sources.
“In the first 10 months of the Ford grant period, we have earned 41 per cent of the grant.” Hoffman explained. “To earn the remaining 59 per cent of $3,854,097, USC must raise an additional $11,562,291.”
Hoffman said only 790 days remain of the Ford 1,000-day challenge period.
Board President Leonard K. Firestone termed the Hoffman report “most encouraging and satisfying.”
Firestone commended Hoffman for the work his committee and he personally had put into the Master Plan.
In a press conference following the board meeting. Firestone also expressed appreciation for the effort of President Topping in behalf of the Master Plan.

“The board is sold on him. the faculty is sold on him and the students are sold on him.” Firestone unless drastic maintained. “I think this is one of the reasons the h"8" are made, Jerry Master Plan has been so successful.”_
