A Senate resolution and a petition urg- ing the withdrawal 0i credit from ROTC were presented by Thomas to faculty chairman Joseph F. Well before the meeting. Thomas said that 400 students, more than one third oi the students at Grin- nell, had signed the petition in u 48- hour period. Earlier petitions posted in halls had been torn down, Thoma: said.

Leggett also told the S“! that it stus dent was caught eavesdropping and tnk< ing notes in a storeroom adjoining the faculty meeting. He was discovered by professors Ray- mond Betts and Wall when they entered the storeroom to count secret ballots on the ROTC motion. The student's notebook was immediately confiscated, Leggett said.
