New Big Ten Plan , Near To Adoption ♦ ■■■• x ■ ‘ CHICAGO (UP• — Approval of the new Big Ten plan to limit fi- * nancial aid to athletes to need only hinges upon votes still to be taken by the faculty groups at Indiana and Northwestern. The conference meets Feb. 22 for a second vote on the measure and currently five schools, Illinois, Michigan,. Michigan State. Purdue and Wisconsin, favor the plan while three oppose, Minnesota. lowa and Ohio State. Should either Indiana or Northwestern vote in favor of the plan, it would be accepted. Should both reject the proposal, the plan would be voted down. The conference first voted on the new plan at- its December meeting and approved it by a 6-4 vote. However, because it was new legislation, it was subject to further approval by the individual faculties and a single vote against forced reconsideration. The plan would require all prospective student athletes to submit reports on their financial status. Then an independent group would determine the amount of aid necessary to pay the full cost of ’ education for the pupil. Each school would be authorized to offer the boy the amount needed during a specified period after the close of classes each summer and the boy, once he accepted an offer from one institution, would become ineligible to compete at any other conference institution. Urges Pipeline To Halt Big Drought Texan Wants Great Lakes Water Used WASHINGTON (UP) — A big | Texan from “Big D” has a big, I big plan for ending the Southwest's 1 big drought. < Bitt the plan is too big even for Texas to put it into effect without some federal help. So Dallas engineer Al Boerner, who thought'up the plan, has arrived in the nation’s capital with maps and models to explain it all to congressmen and government officials. Boerner proposes construction of a 1,500 - mile pipeline to carry water from the Great Lakes to Texas. The pipeline would have four tubes, each 24 - feet in diameter. » But Boerner said moving water from the Great Lakes 1,500 miles wouldn’t be practical unless something else helps pay the cost. Therefore, he proposes: —Construction of a toll superhighway on top of the, underground pipeline with removable, center strips so it can be quickly converted into a mighty airstrip. —Shipping bulk cargo through the pipeline by packing it in wairtight capsules. —Use of the pipeline by the Navy to transfer submarines from the Great Lakes to the Gulf of Mexico in “complete security.” Boerner said a “shotgun estimate” on cost of the project is about seven billion dollars. The tall, dapper Texan brushed aside possible objections by Great Lakes states that their water was being shipped south. "It’s a political football,” he said. “The Great Lakes are on the rise.”' Besides, he said, if the level of the lakes were to drop .after awhile, he has a solution for that problem: Just divert the water now flowing north into Hudson’s Bay. Summerfield Seeks Postage Rate Hike Only Solution To Reducing Deficit WASHINGTON (UP) — Postmaster General Arthur E. Summerfield called today for a hike in postage rates •to keep the postal deficit from hitting a billion dollars a year. The Post Office Department has not yet made a formal proposal to increase the price of postage stamps. But in recent testimony before a House appropriations subcommittee, Deputy Postmaster General Maurice H. Stans indicated the department would propose boosting the price of first class mail to 5 cents an ounce. * Summerfield said the estimated deficit for fiscal 1958 has risen to $651 million because of new ex- | penses resulting from pay in- ; creases and higher rail hauling | rates. He said pending railroad requests for mail pay rate increases I could Cost the Post Office Departi ment an additional $25 million a jyear. A—“The only possible solution is in- ’ creased postage rates to assure 1 (better service and to introduce financial sanity in the handling of the fiscal affairs of this huge businesslike operation within government,” Sumerfield said in a statement.
