In releasing the names Arthur commented that "these 25 notor ious infamous men must not be dealt with lightly.

Dogfail, Director of Men’s Affairs with Women, pre sented a 93 point program which he said might help Cell presidents cement relationships both inside and outside living organizations. Dogfail said the rules would not be binding in any way, either now or in the future. Since the rules are only sug gested, expulsion from school for Cell presidents is the token dis ciplinary action he promished for those disregarding his program. If the University had any policy regarding the suggested rules, the insurgents would be reprimanded and forced to sign a confession. The rules include: 1. Women not allowed in under graduate sleeping porches unless accompanied by someone. 2. Guests must be dingerprinted and have a blood test taken at the DOMAWW’s office before enter ing cell-bloc. 3. No Republicans or Democrats allowed to share the same sleeping porch. 4. Member of subversive organi zations must petition via channels for lower bunks. 5.
