Framed in Yugoslavia, a proposal, written by 17 neutral nations calling for United Nations control of an immediate end to hostilities, has boon rejected as "an imperialist smokescreen." President Johnson has offered over one billion dollars of economic aid to build, among other things, a dam on the Mekong River, and this. too. was rejected. Meanwhile, American jets dumped more than three million pamphlets in North Viet Nam telling o£ the friendly intentions of the United States. Jets also knocked out several important bridges in the Hanoi area. LEGISLATURE CONVENES The Florida Legislature has convened for its biennial 60-day session. Important considerations will include: attempt on the part of teachers to effect a pay raise in spite of Governor Burns' efforts to maintain the same tax level, the continuation of 1-95 from Jacksonville to Miami,, the establishment of several four-year and two-year colleges, the attempt of several areas of (Dade County,to break away from the high taxes, in Dade, a reapportionment,.of the Legislature districts Jo. provide more equal representation along the "one person, one vote" principle ■ as ordered by the Supreme Court. SPY SENTENCED.'.' Two-years imprisonment for impersonating a CIA secret agent .was,the sentence for Thomas Catizone of Brooklyn. During four years of posing as a James Bond, ■ Catizone admitted to authorities of having duped several women into thinking he was doing an underwater mission in Cuba, flying a.U-4 ("the new version of the U-2"), hiding from Algerian authorities where he was supposed to have shot the wrong man, and "borrowing" over $2,500 to evade the Reds. VISITORS STRIKE After 84 Kenyan students in ihe Russian University of Baku went on a three-week strike against alleged brainwashing, discrimination, and hostility by the other students, 29 were flown home. This week the State Department revealed plans io allow at least 15 of these , people to have scholarships for study in the United States. If entrance requirements can be met, over $30,- 000 would be given to the disillusioned students. ECONOMIES UNITE ■ Washington was the scene of, a series of meetings which has resulted in a draft of a common market, free- trade agreement between all the countries in the Americas. Because Latin American nations-are often one-crop economies, having extremely high tariffs and little trade with each other,-the. need for increasing the co- : ordination between the various countries in economic ^planning and regional trade was felt to be very strong. All nations, including the United States and Canada, except Cuba, would; be included. , , MAYOR TO CENSOR '' Mayor Robert Wagner of New: York has been creating storms of controversy with his projected "Citizens' Anti-Pornography Commission." Says Wagner on Fanny Hill. "There's one act of CENSORED every 5 Vi pages and that's too much." With Cardinal Spellman, he condemns the Supreme Court decision allowing such books as "Tropic of Cancer" and "Candy" to circulate because they are "likea cancer worm secretly, eating out. ihe moral life and purity of our youth."

Choosing from a repertoire (hat includes both classical and modern jazz, Brubeek and his associates will improvise on a few old standards such as Duke Ellington's "A Train" but will devote most of the evening to new compositions by the pianist and other quartet members. Tickets at the door will be $2. Advance tickets for students and faculty are $1.50. They are being sold this week in front of the commons. : Since its formation in 1951,, the Dave Brubeek Quartet has won numerous awards. Most notable are the Down Beat Magazine " ' BRUBECK — One of the top artists in modern jazz, pianist-composer Dave Brubeek will appear with his quartet at Spring Concert in Elizabeth Hall this Wednesday. (Special Publicity Photo) awards, which have gone more times to the Quartet than to any other jazz group in history. The Quartet has appeared in almost every free country outside of Africa. They have toured Japan, the middle East, and Europe. Recently they gave an invitational performance at the White House for King Hussein of Jordan. Among Brubeck's achievements are over 200 original songs, 46 record albums, a ballet, TV score, and a jazz musical. He has also written a concerto for a jazz combo and a symphony orchestra. Total cost of the Quartet's appearance here will be $3,250 according to David LaVoy, secretary of Student Activities. At the most, ticket sales will amount to $1,200, he says. The student government will pay the rest of the cost. Brubeck's music is characterized by its experimentation with unusual rhythms.' ' These "time experiments" have been recorded in such albums as "Time Out," "Time Further Out," and "Time Changes." His compositions are designed to convey distinct impressions rather than general moods. An example is his "Impressions of New York." Brubeek claims that the Quartet's performances are spontaneous. "No two performances are alike," he says, "because every time we play we face a new situation, a new audience, and a new hall and, for me, a new instrument. Only in jazz is so much left to chance—-to be created on the spot." . "Contemporary music," lie says, "is often jazz derivative and the more avant-garde pieces are beginning to rely more on the . improvisatory element. Jazz, - on the other hand, Is becoming more formally structured. Someday the two extremes will meet and I hope we will have the best of two worlds, and improvisation will again be as vital a force in music as it was'in Mozart's time." The group's appearance here will be known as the Hatter Holiday Concert and will replace the Spring Concert. The Beach Boys were originally scheduled, but student opinion caused the engagement to be canceled and the Brubeek Quartet to take its Place. . Student government primaries are slated for Tuesday, April 27. Richard Dowling, secretary of Elections, reports there will be 54 candidates running for of-' fice. '''.-'•. Senate campaigners have been speaking about the need for improving student - representative communication. . Three ' candidates want the senate reapportioned to reflect a proper ratio between the different schools. Two are hostile to, the proposed honors system; others emphasize better telephone service, more student interest in campus affairs, improved cultural activities, and the need for more women politicians and fewer Greeks dominating the senate. SCHNEmER: PLATFORM Bill .Schn.ei'der," uncontested candidate for.'SG; president;;-lias brought1 out an 8-point' platform. In this statement, he advocates allowing the senate more power, now entrusted'.to the administration, in the budgeting of student projects. Schneider also urges that the senate tackle problems on a state and national level, not just those of the campus. He would like to see, within the senate, a speakers' bureau and an athletic committee. Dick Shuford, running unopposed for the second major position, wants to make the vice- presidency a dynamic' position. He hopes to work on ad hoc projects such as improving phone service, getting ice cream on the commons menu, building . a swimming pool,: and co-ordinating a curriculum evaluation of the minimester. SECRETARY: MUCH WORK Kitty Morris, the next SG secretary, states that her position entails much work and she would like to be able to "follow the high standards set by Barbara Fagan (the present secretary). " , . There are nine students hoping to fill one of the three senate positions from the liberal arts. school: Rick Badgely, Angel Castillo, Jack Dawson, Bob Eslinger, Joyce Hewitt, Robert Kayser," Larry Pierce, • Jim. Stev- ; ens, and Linda Woofter. - .SENIORS:' QUINTET. . •The seniors have fielded a quintet of candidates to vie. tor their three seats: Chris Garbow, Joe Garner, Pete Hogue, Paul Martin, and Bing Vick.

From the business school: Bob Barnes, Ian Patterson, Bill Swayne, Barry Spivey, and Ted Troxel. Senate Discusses Minimester Rule Senator Dericks asked if students will be required to attend the minimester. Dr. Bailey replied that, in future years under a new catalogue, students will find themselves in a new edu<" tional program which will r matically mean attending i. minimester. The first three years the winter term will not be required. However, in some of the sciences students will be counselled to attend. The stress will be that this is not required for all. ' ' s Senator Dickey stated that there has been much negative discussion about the minimester. He asked if students will be getting more hours for their $200. Dr. Bailey replied that students will be able to get the regular fifteen hours in the wing terms, and a possible six hours in the winter term. Many students will find themselves graduating in 3-3% years, so in this way you will be getting more hours. Senator Brousseau asked if one would be able to take 17 or 18 hours ih the wing terms. Dr. Bailey replied this had not yet been decided. President Bugg stated that he had been left with the impression that this would not be changed. Dr. Bailey pointed out that there will be Saturday classes next year contrary to what has been said on campus. The wing terms will be treated as regular terms as they are only 2 or 3 days shorter than our present semesters. Senator Wilkins asked if the minimester is paid for separately or as a part of the other two semesters. Dr. Bailey stated it will be paid for separately. $200 will be the cost of the winter term. For the winter term, room and. board has been ex- tended on the basis of what it costs per day now. Financial aid arrangementris have also been extended. Senator Castillo asked if/ the letter had been sent to Martin Luther King, Jr. protesting violence in the civil rights move- ment and was told, this would ba sent tomorrow. ■' Dean Hood requests that students casually attired for University concerts ! take seats on the second ! floor of Elizabeth Hall's ' auditorium.
