Claims prexy firedRU Torch in controversyRoosevelt University, which clamped down on the “Wobblies” last year, has beenupset by rambunctious students again.In this week s edition of the Roosevelt Torch, student paper at the downtown Chi¬cago institution, a “bulletin” appeared on page three, announcing that RU’s president Ask support forFast for Freedomhad ''unofficially’' beer fired.(Last spring, the administrationf(»r a time had a ban on activitiesol tiie "Wobbles” a student offshoot0£ the Industrial Workers of theWorld, after they sponsored an‘ anarcho-pacifist” wiio burned theAmerican flag. After a noisy ruckushad died down, the "Wobblies” werereinstated.)RlT PRESIDENT Robert P. Pitch-ell was perhaps suprised to seenews of this "unofficial” firing whenhe read the Torch, when it came^it Saturday morning. AU copies oftlte issue were seized.Tliey will re-appear today in theRU building, which is a large con¬verted hotel between Michigan ave.and Wabash ave., at Congressb!vd. Inside the copies will appeara single slieet containing statements,fenying tlie Torch story from thechairman of the Board of Trustees, "It is reported that Pitcheli wasasked to leave after he failed tobring funds to the University. WhenPitcheli took otfice last January,sources reported that bringing newmoney to the school would be oneof his main functions."Roosevelt is now reportedly$700,000 in debt. Funds have beenborrowed to pay faculty salaries forDecember and January."Torch sources believe that theUniversity may cease to exist with¬in the next two years due to in¬creasing debt and the fact that nonew sources of income are in sight."Conflicts with Pitcheli and fearsof the University’s demise have sentmany faculty members and top of¬ficials looking for jobs this year.”Confirms debt figure THIS AGREEMENT involved reduemg the size of the administra¬tive Council, and bringing any ques¬tions that could not be resolved bynegotiations between the presidentand the administrative council tothe Board of Trustees for final de¬cision. A total of 349 students have agreedto go without dimer on Thursdayin connection with the Fast for Free¬dom.Seventy-five students signed up inB.J., 106 in Pierce, and 168 in NewDorm. All proceeds go to the Na¬tional Student Association which willuse them to buy food for MississippiNegroes.Residence Halls and Commons(RH&C) is donating 50c per student as opposed to the $1.60 they donatedlast year. Richard Schmitt, chair¬man of tiie Community RelationsCommittee of Student Government ,said that he was "dismayed” atdie small amount that Lylas Kay,head of RH&C, offered for the meal.While he noted that last year thefast was held on a Wednesday whenRH&C serves a "special” meal, liepointed out that $1.85 was chargedguests who wanted to eat in theDorms.SG Assembly scene of probable debateilie faculty’s Administrative Council,and Pitcheli himself.Judi HiJprki, Torch editor, tolddie Maroon she had called PitcheliSaturday and offered to insert astatement from him. Instead, theAdministrative Council deckled toadd statements from itself theBoard chairman, Lyle Spencer.Original "bulletin'*Tlie original story was publishedas a bulletin and read: "UniversityPresident Pitcheli has unofficiallykvn fired. He was told by top Roose¬velt officials to look for a job andtake what suits him.”"Pitcheli now has no administra¬tive power as a result of actiontaken at a recent meeting of theBoard of Trustees. The action wastaken to quell a long-smoldering ‘re¬volt of tlie Deans.’"RUMORS OF IMPENDING ad¬ministrative disaster within the Uni¬versity had leached Chicago metro¬politan press drawing comment indie columns of the Sun-Times’s IrvKupcinet and Tribune’s HerbLyons."All administrative i>ower nowrests in the hands of Roosevelt'sadministrative Council, which con¬sists of all Roosevelt deans and fiveother administrators. Pitcheli confirmed the $700,000debt figure in a newcast withWBKB s Frank Reynolds.Steve Bookshester, Torch nationalnews editor told the Maroon thatTorch editors had received informa¬tion on Pitcheli from more than onehighly authoritative source, andvouched for its accuracy.PETITIONS CENSURING t h eTorch have been circulated atRoosevelt by a committee to pre¬serve the integrity of the Universi¬ty.”In addition, a meeting of the Stu¬dent Activities Board is scheduledfor this afternoon. The SAB, com¬posed of six students and six facultymembers, is responsible for hiringand firing of editors at Roosevelt.Board chairman repliesIn a reply to the story' which wasmimeographed yesterday and dis¬tributed this morning inserted in thepreviously seized Torches, chairmanof the RU Board of Trustees LyleM. Spencer called the story "prettyirresponsible journalism.”He pointed out that, .while dis¬agreements between the faculty andadministration exist at RU, "an ex¬cellent program was worked outlast month” which was approvedby everybody. Finance plan considered tonightThe controversial Student Government (SG) Finance Committee proposal goes be¬fore the SG Assembly tonight, with a major debate expected over the oft-changedCommunications Board section of it.The Communications Board portion of the proposal, which originally had stipu¬lated that the board be allowed toreview and issue a report on allbreaches of professional ethics and/orresponsibility, was modified yester¬day to state that the board will nowconsider only those violations whichare libelous. The board will alsohear complaints concerning refusalon the part of communications mediato allow time or space for rebuttalon the part of those wi» claim theyare misrepresented.THE ASSEMBLY debate tonightis expected by members of the SGexecutive council to center aroundboth this latest change and thegeneral advisability of any clauserelating to communications media.Tlie meeting will begin at 7:30 pmin Business East 103.Text of clauseThe clause which was changedyesterday reads as follows: "(Theduties of tlie Communications Boardshall be) to hold hearings on allcomplaints of libel against and allpublications, radio stations, and tele¬vision stations. Tlie Board may hearcomplaints of libel against al!an individual if that individual wasdenied publication space or air timeby the communications medium in¬volved. Tlie Board may not holdhearings for any other purpose.” According to Gene Groves andBemie Grofman, president and vice-president of SG respectively, theissue now boils down to whether ornot the administration will agree topermit WUCB to switch to FMoperation without a clause concern¬ing publications in the Communica¬tions Board proposal. The originalpurpose of the CommunicationsBoard was to provide a body whichcould mediate between the BoardQuote of the DayTho trouble is that the Universityof Chicago is the one place in theworld where I hove to do my best —and then it would not be qood enough.—Robert Maynard Hutchins, from aletter to academic affairs chair¬man of SG Eil.'s Levin.of Trustees (who would hold tlie FMlicense) and the Federal Communi¬cations Commission (FCC).THE OTHER SECTIONS of thecomplete proposal stand more or lessunchanged. The CommunicationsBoard would ensure that all com¬munications media licensed with theFCC followed the Federal Commis¬sion’s regulations; it would have thepower to publish or broadcast a re¬port on any incident brought up be¬fore it; and it would definitely not have the power to remove or ap¬point editors or managers, to com¬pel the media to divulge sources ofinformation, or to mention any par¬ticular staff member by name in thecourse of any investigation.CORSO handles budgetsThe other part of the proposal,which would allow SG's Committeeon Recognized Student Organizations(CORSO) to distribute the budgets ofthe various student organizations,states that the organizations willsubmit proposed budgets to CORSOby May 10 of each year. CORSOwrill then hold hearings at which theleaders of each organization maytestify. The complete budget thenwould go to the SG Assembly forapproval.No political group, quasi-academicgroup, or religions group would re¬ceive funds from SG. Furthermore,the CORSO chairman could allocateadditional funds to any organizationduring the course of the year ifneed were proven, and it could re¬move the funds with permission ofthe organization. Finally, no alloca¬tion could be made which would cre¬ate a deficit in the total student ac¬tivities package, and no adjustmentcould be made without the approvalof the assembly.School critic, NEA official speak at teacher education confabConant hits establishment; offers 'radical program“All disciplines in the college which are concernedwith teacher training should have a voice in the formula¬tion of the four-year program.”I)r. James B. Conant yesterday called this the “mostradical ol his recent suggestions ata two-day conference on teacher edu¬cation at Northwestern University.SPEAKING ON the day of publica¬tion of his latest book, in which liemakes a blistering attack on the"educational establishment,” Conantproposed tliat university presidentscreate "study groups in depth so thatthose wlio know about tlie subjectmatter and people concerned aboutsecondary schools and Anybody elsetlie president thinks should be in onthe discussion would consider whatand how the professors taught/’Academic vice presidents andcleans of liberal arts and educationschools from fifteen colleges anduniversities attended the conference,s|x>nsored by Northwestern under agi ant from the Carnegie Corporation.Urgent problemsSome of the most urgent problemsin teacher education would be metif three measures besides the "aJL institutional approach’’ were taken,Conant proposed. They are:• Improving practice teaching pro¬grams;• A fifth year of graduate work inone form or another;• Recruiting good students into thefield of teaching within the collegeor university.Conant admitted that there is muchcontroversy about five-year programsfor teachers, and admitted, “For afee, I could argue on either side.”SUCH A PROGRAM might rangefrom night school to summer school¬ing, he pointed out, but would addup to an extra year in the end. Afifth year of formal training mightbe best if taken after some practicebeaching following the normal fourthyear of course work, Conant pro¬posed, since practical experienceteaches many things not availableotherwise.Support from NEA veepOn the point of five-year programs, ConantConant was supported bv a vice pres¬ident of the National Education Asso¬ciation (NEA), T. M. Stinnet."We are headed for five-year pro¬grams for teachers,” Stinnet said.Four years is not enough to keep standards for teaching hi^i enough,he explained.THE EXPANDED program, lieproposed, should include bask: pre¬education courses, such sis anthropol¬ogy, human growth and development,and the history and philosophy ofeducation.Stinnet also endorsed Conant’sviews on institution-wide planning forbeadier education. In addition, hesuggested, teacher preparation plan¬ning must involve public school per¬sonnel, state authorities, and repre¬sentatives of professional associa¬tions.Praise for UC programAs one of the best examples ofuniversity-wide planning ol teachereducation, Stinnet praised UC’s Mas¬ter of Arts in Teaching program.This, he said, provides "admirablebalance between scholarly groundingin the subject to be taught, a con¬ceptual grasp of the learning process,and actual clinical exjierience in tlieclassroom.’*Stinnet described tlie program asa “co-operative program’* among diegraduate school of education, dieother graduate schools, die lab school, and other committees andalindcs in the Univesrily. MAT stu¬dents spend one year of study inthe subject they will teach, plus ninemonths of internship in the class¬room.STINNET SAID he was "especiallyimpressed with the co-operative de¬velopment, the scholarly demandson the students, and the comprehen¬sive nature of the professional as¬pects of the program.”In the NEA, Stinnet administersseveral of the association's depart¬ment and committees which dealwith teacher training and professionalmatters, such as the National Com¬mission of Teacher Education andProfessional Standards.The student committee to evalu¬ate and criticize the Levi Reportwill meet Thursday at 8 pm iethe SG office. The committee ismeeting under the auspices of theAcademic Affairs Committee ofStudent Government, and willpublish a report of its recommen¬dations. All students interested inan aspect of the plan or its con¬sequence are invited.Sit-in leader, Japanese speak at CTSRace tension and religion tied“The contemporary racialtension is, in a very profoundsense, the church’s ownmaking,” declared the Rev¬erend Dadsuke Kitagawa in a talkSaturday at the Chicago TheologicalSeminary.Kitagawa, executive secretary af♦he Division of Domestic Missions,Executive Council of the US Protes¬tant Episcopal Church, discussed"Racial Tensions and World Per¬spective” at an international con¬ference of students on the race issue.Kitagawa emphasized the impor¬tance of the "ethnos,” or ethno-cul¬tural group, in history. The ethnossupplies a group of men with acommon spiritual home and a com¬mon value system, he said.Group prejudiceOverlooking the dynamics of suchgroup membership in man's socialrelationships is a vast mistake,Kitagawa felt. "Man as a culturalbeing is conditioned by group pre¬judice,” he said.THE IDENTIFICATION OF eth¬nos with race, however, is relativelynew. A failure to recognize this,Kitagawa said, has led Christianity tobe largely responsible for racialtrouble.In Christian missionary work ofthe past few hundred years, Chris - par ably superior to pagan religions.This led to feelings of inferiority onthe pari of the ”pagan” people,Kitagawa feels.By an "accident of history,” Kita¬gawa said, the Christianity mission¬ary movement into non-Europeanareas coincided with the growth ofEuropean imperialism. This combina¬tion tended to reinforce the conceptof a superior white Christian race,he believes.Technical backgroundAnother outgrowth, however, ofWestern colonialism has been theemergence today of a worldsociety in which a man’s value de¬pends on has technical skill, not hisethnic background.IN THIS NEW WORLD society,Kitagawa said, "people becomeemancipated from efhno-centrocism,Or they feel uprooted.” Those whofeel uprooted have turned back forroots to the racism created byWestern religio-culutral imperialismin the past, he said. Thus, by its,unintended association with colonial¬ism and imperialistic ideas, Chris¬tianity has helped bring about thenew world society . and the racialtensions that go with it.Kitagawa said that racism, morethan political ideology, is the majordividing force in the world today.He cited the racial basis of the China-Russia split as an exampleof the importance of racism in cur¬rent world events. He felt, however,that racism would not permanentlybe a divisive force in the world.Rights act little helpKitagawa expressed Little confi¬dence in an end to racial tensionsin the US under the provisions ofthe 1964 cavil rights act. "We aregoing to have much more subtle,but vicious, racial tensions,” he pre¬dicted.NOTING THAT THE church, asa socially organized institution, fol¬lowed the polarized social patterns ofAmerica, Kitagawa stated that thechurch will be the last truly desegre¬gated instiution in the US.Bom and raised in Japan, Kita¬gawa attended the UC DivinitySchool. He has lived in the US since1937.From 1956 to 1962 he served asstudy secretary of the Study Divisionof the World Council of Churchesin Geneva, Switzerland. In his pres¬ent position as an executive secre¬tary of the US Prostestant EpiscopalChurch, Kitagawa supervises theEpiscopal Church’s special work incities and rural areas, and amongethnic groups.He has published a book basedon missionary material called RaceRelations ami the Christian Mission.emerging'♦sanity has been presented as incom-Non-violent movement“If the non-violent move¬ment succeeds, we shall haveto disarm and change ourcountry’s economic basefrom one of war to one of peace,”said Reverend James Lawson at acolloquium on "Racial Tension in theWorld Perspective” in Davis Loungeof the Chicago Theological SeminarySaturday.Lawson was an early leader in thecivil rights movement and was ex¬pelled from Vanderbilt University farleading sit-in demonstrations in Mem¬phis. He completed hds education afBoston University and has traveledwidely in India and Africa. He is nowpastor of Centenary Methodist Churchin Memphis, Tennessee.LAWSON WENT ON to say thatthe non-violent movement is a globalpeace movement dedicated to helpingmen to live together in peace allover the world, and the AmericanNegro is a vehicle to show the world what non-violence can do. "MartinLuther King’s winning of the NobelPeace Prize was very significant,”Lawson said. “It shows that non¬violence is being given world recog¬nition.”"The movement is still emerging,still developing,” he .stressed. Themovement, he said, can be tracedback to the boycott by Negroes ofpublic busses in Montgomery, Ala¬bama in 1965, the first major non¬violent social movement. But the real beginning of the movement, con¬tinued, was 1961 when the FreedomRides into Alabama and Mississippibegan.Lawson urged that the civil rightsmovement should not be called "theNegro movement,’’ for "it involvesall Americans, not just Negroes.”Commenting on the civil rights billof 1964, Lawson said it is "merely amoral and psychological victory forthe non-violence movement and theliberals.”DR.

When the 41,000-mile national highway network Is completed it will bepossible for the first time to schedule coast to coast, big payload hauling. Ford Motor Company's answer tothe challenge Is this experimental tractor-trailer combination. A tandem axle drive tractor, powered bya 600 hp gas turbine engine permits a cruising speed of 70 miles per hour, a non-stop range of 600 miles.Designed for long-distance, non-stop operation, the two-man cab includes sleeping facilities, fold-away table*lavatory, toilet, oven, refrigerator and TV for the co-driver—with over 6'3" of headroom. Because of itscruising speed, the truck will be compatible with the normal passenger car flowrate of traffic.,Other unique features are its odorless exhaust and extremely quiet operation.Anticipating the opportunities and needs of the future Is standard practice at Ford Motor Company. ^That’s why It’s such an exciting place to work.

First., fellowships$4,000 (plus $1,200 for tuition andup to $1,000 for dependents) will begiven to expert instrumentalists whoure working toward their MastersDonees in composition and musi¬cology, or their PhD m musicology.St-eond, grants of $5,500 will beavailable for non-degree .students orthose already possessing an MA orPhD. Six fellowships will be offeredyearly.Third, the grant provides funds tooj-oo/te the “Chicago Unit Nucleus”:a group of professional performers inthe Chicago area hired on a con-tractual basis by the CCP. Althoughthis group will not be preventedfrom pursuing other activities, theprimary obligation of these musi¬cians will be to the CCP, thus pno-vwling the group with virtually un¬limited rehearsal time.THE MUSICAL DIRECTOR of theCCP is Ralph Shapey, assistant pro-fessor of music, a recent additjon totlie UC music faculty. His ajipoint-ment became effective July 1. Shapey, short, bearded, and en¬ergetic, has a long and impressiverecord of compositions, conductingassignments, commissions, andawards. When his Discourses forFour Instruments received its Chi¬cago premier two years ago duringthe UC Chamber Music Series, iteven elicited an enthusiastic, if unin¬formed, review by the traditionallyhostile Maroon critic Pete Rabi-nowitz.Shapey is far from the silent, re¬tiring, and sensitive stereotype ofa composer. He is not only vocal,but also notoriously blunt (at times,unprintably so) in his often con¬troversial opinions. He believes thatmusic is only music when realizedas sound and when the sounds havebeen organized by the composer.Although not opposed to improvisa¬tions as such, he considers the“nihilism” of the chance composers(such as Cage and Feldman) “aprime example of irresponsibility”and a quest for quick cheap gloryleading to "gimmicks” and “lackof integrity.”Likewise, he rejects any kind of‘‘formula” music. While a composermay well start with a formula, hemust also possess the imagination10 transcend it, 1* feels. Most ofthis imagination, Shapey insists, isfound today in America, wherethere is far greater compositionaltalent than in Europe: “Europe isdead, Europe is old, Europe istired,” Shapey claims. Three categoriesThe pieces which Shapey will se¬lect to be performed by the CCPwill fall into three general catego¬ries: older but seldom heard worksby the acknowledged “masters” ofthe century (Schoenberg, Webern,Varese, etc.); newer works by rec¬ognized younger composers; andcompositions by composers who areat present unknown.IN ITS INITIAL year, the groupwill give five regularly scheduledperformances on campus (includinga special all Varese program incommenooration of his eightiethbirthday), as well as solo recitalsby several of the individual CCPmembers.The group will also go on tour. In¬cluded will be three New York con¬certs in late March; two in Carne¬gie Recital Hall and the Varese con¬cert in Carnegie Hall proper.There wiH also be “reading re¬hearsals” of works by UC com-,position students. As with all of theCCP’s rehearsals, they are open tothe public.Finally, the group will sponsorseminar-rehearsals with many of thecomposers whose works they areperforming.Purposes manifoldTHE PURPOSES OF the projectare manifold. For the fellows in¬volved, it will provide, according toLeonard Meyer, chairman of themusic department, "... importantexperience in the performance of new music and ... an opportunityto exchange ideas with other inter¬ested in the composition, theory, andperformance of contemporary mu¬sic.”Further, it is hoped that the CCPwill help to create what Meyer calls“a vital musical life.” The numer¬ous concerts and rehearsals, pro¬viding contact with the music oftoday which is generally negleotedby other performers, should involvepeople not only on campus, but alsothroughout the city, Meyer feels.Meyer conceives of the projectas an attempt to encourage a healthy “climate of music making” inChiago and the Midwest as a whole.Hopefully, those professional musi¬cians working with the CCP will beinspired by their experience to in¬clude more contemporary music ontheir own programs, he said.The first concert of the CCP willbe held in Mandel Hall on Decem¬ber 1, and will include compositionsby Webern, Varese, Schoenberg,Berg, Escot, and Davidovsky. Ad¬mission is 50c for students and $1for others.Tony SalieriTonight at 8:30' opensThe twentieth century French play¬wrights Giraudoux, Ghelderode, andJarry will be featured in the studentworkshop series “Tonight ait 8:30,”which opens this weekend at theReynolds Club Theatre.The first play is “The Supplementto the Voyage of Captain Cook,” byJean Giraudoux, a light treatmentof the contrast between Englishcivilization circa 1770 and Tahitianculture.

Big at the end of the 1700’speople began to reflect on the factthat a great many persons claimedto have found the ‘true' solution, butthat all had been refuted,” statedStrauss.“HOWEVER, ALL SAW somethingimportant without which later devel¬opments would have been impossible.They were all sons of their time. Each new era demands a new politi¬cal philosopher,’’ Strauss contended.Strauss went on to explain Hegel'sidea tha-t an absolute truth was im¬possible without an absolute time,but added that the philosopher hadconsidered his own era “absolute.’’In midst of historyAccording to the existentialists,tiie highest principles at which wearrive cannot be universally valid.They say we are in the midst ofhistory, and cannot escape horn ourhistorical situation, Strauss said.“The existentialists claim that theprinciples change so radically fromepoch to epoch that they can't bemade t h e object of criticism,”Strauss said. “And all political actionis concerned with change or preser¬vation, either to bring about im¬provement or to prevent worsening,”he added.“THIS IS A question of better andworse, and so we must know what is good and had. It becomes neces¬sary to examine what is called the‘good society,’ ’’ Strauss said.According to Strauss, many philo¬sophers have presented their ideas ofthis “good society,” but found them¬selves proved wrong by later devel¬opments. “Guessing the wave of thefuture is a primary task of politicalphilosopher-s. But where are the great(Mies of our time?,” Strauss asked.Must answer rationally“The situation is implausible andincredible because we must try toanswer ‘What is a good society?' ina rational manner, and we can’tbecause it is a value problem,”Strauss said.“To understand the ‘operativeideas' of American political philoso¬phy, we must find out about opinionsin our society. Yet these opinionsare only slightly our own. They ateinherited, and entirely ununderstoodwhen taken in," he continued.
