BaUantine would an nounce his resignation as presi dent of Reed College Monday. BaUantine, asked to comment on the report, said "I have nothing to jay about it" ! . BaUantine. who came to the col lege in 1932 from Massachusetts In stitute of Technology, has been iat odds with student and faculty coun cils at the college for some time. Both councils have expressed fears that BaUantine was j chang ing the school's traditional policy of allowing student? and faculty members a large share of control of certain aspects of the, school ad ministration, i 1 1, i Recent hearings of the House Un-: American Activities Committee here led to intensification of the disagreement between the presi dent and the faculty. : The faculty council voted 38-9 to oppose Ballantine's suspension of Prof. Lloyd J. Reynolds, who in voked the Fifth Amendment" in refusing to testify at the hearing. The suspension remained in ef fect while the college board of trustees investigated Reynolds and two other teachers who had been accused by witnesses of having once been Communists. , 1 " i Later Reynolds and one of the other teachers were , reinstated.
