After collège and the service, Arien Prenticetook a position there as a salariedofficer of a national fraternity. Itwas interesting work, but forArien something was lacking:challenge . . . long-range potential.Then a prominent fraternitybrother had a talk with him aboutplans for the future. This man wasa New England Life gênerai agent.He pointed out the opportunitieswith this company and convincedArien that life insurance couldgive him the kind of career he wasafter.Arien liked what he heard. Butthere was one drawback. Muchas he felt that hère was the manwho could guide him to his fullpotential in this business, he had always hoped to settle in theSeattle area. Although he regrettedlosing Arien, our Chicago gêneraiagent quickly assured him that hecould also get what he wanted inour Seattle agency. He then wrotehis counterpart in Seattle, stronglyrecommending Arien. "Our loss isyour gain," he said.For Arien this is already workingout very well. He's found he canprovide a service to businessmenthat is welcomed. And he's gettingdirect results in earnings. AsArien puts it: "Even as a new manin the business, I didn't hâve tolimit myself to any particular'class' of prospect. New EnglandLife has prepared me for goingNEW ENGLAND LIFE after big accounts as well asmodest ones."Our gênerai agencies throughoutthe country provide support anddirection to help men with aptitude for our business realize theirfull potential.

Just Off theSmall School Talent SearchA Good Idea Grows UpIt's four years this spring sinceMaggie Perry had her favoritegood idea— long enough for mostbright thoughts to hâve perished.This one was evoked by a pleas-ant interview with a U. of C. stu-dent who happened to corne froma small town out west. "I got tothinking that a lot of good brainsmust be passing us by," Maggiesays, "because many small townboys wouldn't dream of applying toa big national university far fromhome."No doubt it would hâve endedthere except that Maggie, to beformai, is Margaret E. Perry, asso-ciate director of admissions at theUniversity. She tossed the idea atChuck O'Connell, her boss. He, asyou might expect, pointed out that Quadr anglesstaff time spent with prospectivestudents in major cities would servemore candidates than that spentchasing a lot of small, unknownschools. But he still liked the idea.Thus was born the Small SchoolTalent Search, through which 107students from such metropoleis asBig Timber, Montana, and BadAxe, Michigan, hâve corne to theCollège over the past four years.The first group of SSTS entrantswill be graduated next month; whatthey and the University hâvelearned about each other is enoughto guarantee the SSTS a permanentniche in the University 's admissionsprogram.At the start, small high schoolsin six midwestern states were in-vited to submit candidates. A suc-cessf ul nominee is guaranteed what-ever financial support he requires.His sélection hangs rather more onpersonal recommendations and lesson objective test scores than is thecase with non-Search applicants,and there is extra leeway givencandidates with obvious holes intheir préparation (because, for example, many small high schoolsoffer no foreign languages). Theprogram lias been expanded bothin numbers and geographical ex-tent, year-by-year, so that it nowcovers ten states and about 50 newstudents each year.On the expectation that somemeasure of cultural deprivationwould adversely affect the CollègeThe University of Chicago Alumni AssociationPHILIP C.

The 45SSTS entrants last fall scored 626on the verbal portion of the Schol-astic Aptitude Test against a Classof '67 average of 660, but exceededthe class mean on the mathematicaltest, 659 to 655.(Thèse scores, widely if inaccur-ately used as a rule-of-thumb meas-ure of the académie toughness of acollège, are 30-40 points higherthan the means of U. of C. Collègeclasses only five years ago. Comparative rankings with other collèges are not published, but Chi-cago's means are among the high-est.)Academically, slow starts fol-lowed by fast recoveries hâve char-acterized SSTS students from thestart. In its fîrst year at the Univer-sity, every entering group hasscored below the Collège over-allgrade average— but has jumpedpast the average in its second orthird year. It is too soon to general-ize from this pattern, but it doesmake the early fears about culturaldeprivation look still more hollow.Indeed, some of the small-towners are scholastically advantaged,for a side-effect of the Search hasbeen to identify some small highschools which are a lot better thananyone knew.An apparent example is the highschool in Oelwein, Iowa (pop.8,300), the only school to hâve hadan SSTS candidate accepted inevery year of the program. The fîrstof Oelwein's five winners, MaryEllen Doughty, takes her A.B. nextmonth and has been admitted tothe Master of Arts in Teaching program of the Graduate School ofEducation. It's most unlikely thata school of Oelwein's size couldhâve placed students in the Searchfor five straight years if it were notgiving its boys and girls uncom-monly good préparation.Havre, Montana, a town of 10,700 vromView fôookô mThe University of Chicago PressWhat Can a Man Do?, by Milton Mayer, '32.

COlumbus 1-1420located 35 miles south of the Cari adian border, also appears to besuch a case. Montana high schoolswere fîrst invited to join the program in 1962, and a student fromHavre has been chosen in each ofthe three classes since. Anotherschool with an unusual record isin Red Wing, Minnesota (pop.10,500), which has placed threestudents in the fîrst five years ofthe SSTS.The Search is, at heart, a way ofgiving a chance to talented students who might hâve missed itotherwise — doubtless the reasonwhy those who work with the SSTStend to get wreathed in smiles asthey begin spinning yarns aboutremarkable youngsters found in un-likely places.A particularly bright example isAllan Johnson, who enters next fall.Allan's home is in Ogema, in thetimber country of north-centralWisconsin. Thèse past four yearshe has taken the school bus eightmiles from Ogema to high schoolin Prentice— both towns of less than500 population. His dad is an automechanic, and the thought of collège had seemed a remote possi-bility until Allan's principal gotliterature from the University aboutthe Search.When Miss Perry read the prin-cipal's letter about Allan, she putin a somewhat breathless téléphonecall to Prentice. "Put him on thebus and hâve him corne down hèrefor an interview," she virtuallycommanded. "He's got no money,"replied the principal. "Send himanyway," replied Miss Perry, calm-ly breaking an inflexible rule. "Wemust hâve some fund to pay forthis." (She found one.)Allan tumed out to be as per-sonable as his SAT scores were in-credible— both above 750, one ofthem only a whisker below themaximum possible 800. He stayedin the dorms two days, seemed un-fazed by his fîrst visit to any cityIarger than Wausau, and fell inlove with the University. He willenter not only as an SSTS winner,but also as a faculty-chosen University Scholar— a distinction grant-4 THE ed to 15 entering students eachyear.The chances of Allan's complet-ing four years at the Universityare, judged by the expérience ofhis fellow products of the Search,pretty good. Eighty-nine of the 107to enter through the autumn of1963 are still in the Collège as thefîrst group approaches graduation.Students in the program, al-though only 4% of the Collège student body at this point (expectedto level off at about 10% by 1967),appear also to be contributing morethan their share of leadership instudent life.The best example so far is GèneGroves, a junior from ColumbiaCity, Indiana, who has just beenelected Student Government président for 1964-65. He was amongthe organizers of the new studentparty, GNOSIS, which sprang upin the wake of student reaction tothe (in)famous Student Governmenttelegram to Président Kennedy pro-testing the Cuba blockade in October 1962. An unprecedented re-call élection, forced by student pétition, resulted in removal of 12 ofthe 13 SG représentatives respon-sible for the telegram. In the ensu-ing élections, GNOSIS won ahealthy majority of SG seats andGène Groves, then only a sopho-inore, was among the most-toutedcandidates for SG président. Hedidn't make it then, but this yearhe did.Back in the Admissions Office,where they privately call the Searchby the less élégant, but more pro-nounceable, name of "Grits" (forGrass Roots Talent Search), it's theseason for a new round of pleasedstories about the next group com-ing in. It includes a railroad sectionforeman's son, Theophanis Koloko-trones from Livingston, Montana;Robert Dunphy, eldest of sevenchildren and valedictorian of thisyear's graduating class— which num-bers eleven— in Woodworth, NorthDakota; and the fîrst Wyoming entrant, William Ralph from GreenRiver, where Principal Robert R.Cameron, '52, AM'55, wrote therecommendations. — H.R.H.

Hartmann, Editor.Volume 30, Number 8intelligence, Environment and EducationPrimary schools will hâve to create a more powerful and effective schoolenvironmenl in working with children whose home environment is not con-ducive to learning. This is one of the conclusions reached by Benjamin S.Bloom, Ph.D. '43, professor in the Graduate School of Education, as he ana-lyzes studies of physical characteristics, intelligence, school achievemenl,interests, attitudes and values, and other personality characteristics in hisnew book Stability and Change in Human Characteristics."[The] évidence suggests the great importance of the firsl few years ofschool as well as the preschool period in the development of learning pat-terns and gênerai achievement. . . . Failure to develop appropriate achieve-ment and learning in thèse years is likely to lead to continued failure ornear-failure throughout the remainder of the individual's school career. . . ."Although there must be some genetic potential for learning, the use ofwhatever potential exists is determined by environment. General schoolachievement is likely to he greatly affecled by the prevailing atmosphèreat home, by the examples of the peer group, and of course by the schoolitseli. There are clearly some environments which discourage school learning, while there are others which encourage and reinforce it. The childwhose preschool years are spent in a home without books, which lacks ahéritage of éducation, will not achievc as easily as one who starls out froma home where the désire for knowledge is part of the environment.The development and understanding of measurable information in thebehavioral sciences will play an increasingly important rôle, according toMr. Bloom. Patterns of growth and interrelationship of each characteristicfrom âge to âge are so consistent from many différent studies that a singlecurve of development émerges for each characteristic. Thèse data give anew précision to research in éducation and the behavioral sciences enablingus to predict particular characteristics such as school achievement five toten years in advance of high school or collège."If we can make such prédictions and reach such understanding, weshould be able to change the circumstances sufficiently to bring about anentirely différent set of results for an individual or a group, if we wantLo," he states.For most characteristics, Mr. Bloom finds that there are periods of rapidchange as well as periods of little growth or change. Some characteristicsmay develop more in a single year at one period in the individual's historythan in five or ten years at another period in his career.Thus there is substantial évidence that environment, during a rapid periodof character growth, exerts a far greater measure of influence in a shorterperiod of time than during a period of relatively slower character formation."Evidence points to the importance of the early years of childhood andthe necessity of providing the optimal environmental conditions in thèseyears of most rapid development," he says. "The intellectual, physical, andmental well-being of an individual are a reflection of his environment, andihey are most seriously hampered by deprivation, whether it is économie,emotional, or cultural."Recognizing the powerful effect which a change in environment canhâve, he goes on to state: "Thèse results make it clear that a single earlymeasure of gênerai intelligence cannot be the basis for a long-term décisionabout an individual." He then cites figures to show that a change in environment in the very early years can increase a child's intelligence by asmuch as 20 points. Mr. Bloom points out that "This could mean the différencehetween life in an institution for the feebleminded or a productive life insociety. It could mean the différence between a professional occupationand occupation at the unskilled or semi-skilled level."Where significantly lower intelligence can be clearly attributed to theeffects of environmental deprivations, steps must be taken to amelioratethèse conditions as early in the individual's development as éducation andother social forces can be utilized."If school dropouts, delinquent behavior, and frustration with the edu-cational requirements of a society can be predicted long in advance, can wesit idly by and watch the prophecies come true?"If remédiai actions and therapy are less effective at later stages in theindividual's development, can we satisfy our social conscience by indulgingin such activities when it is far too late?"The increased ability to predict long-term conséquences of environ-mental forces and developmental characteristics places new responsibilitieson the home, the school and the society."From Mr. Bloom's study new évidence also seems to émerge that ail isnot lost even if the formative years of a child's growth are far from idéal.There are indications that intelligence can continue to develop into theadult years. "It is likely that the growth curve of intelligence after âgeseventeen is more a function of the environments in which individuals liveand work than it is a conséquence of biological and maturational processes,"he states.Benjamin S. Bloom, Ph.D.'43, is professor of éducation in the GraduateSchool of Education. He is president-elect of the American Edu-cational Research Association. In 1959-1960 he was a Fellow at theCenter for Advanced Study in the Behavioral Sciences in Stanford,California; he is a Fellow of the American Psychological Association.IrV BRIEF . . .Advisors to the PrésidentEdward H.

Procédures hâve been set up to conveysuch data on an individual basis to the Président; the twenty-seven do not act as abody. It is the President's intent to study expert opinion on as many aspects aspossible before determining spécifie lines of action.Earth's Shock Wave in SpaceSix Chicago-area electronics firnis contributed parts and tecfmical assistance inthe construction of The University of Chicago's instrument package aboard theExplorer 18 paddle-wheel satellite which is investigating interplanetary space beyondthe earth's magnetic field.Instruments on the IMP (Interplanetary Monitoring Platform) determined thatthe earth's radiation belt is engulfed by an energetic radiation zone which mayextend as far outward into space as the moon.The satellite-borne cosmic ray experiment also confirmed that a turbulent shockwave is created ahead of the earth as it rushes through space in orbit around the sun.The shock wave is created when a high-velocity solar "wind" of particles collideswith the leading edge of the earth's magnetic field.The IMP experiment is the 15th space shot attempted by scientists from The University of Chicago.John A. Simpson, professor in the Department of Physics and in the Enrico FermiInstitute for Nuclear Studies, has been the senior expérimenter for ail fifteen of theUniversity's space experiments. The engineering of the package was done by the Uni-versity's Laboratories for Applied Sciences, under Senior Physicisl James Lamport.Erom around the GlobeThe number of foreign students, spécial visitors and scholars al the University nowstands at 867, according to the latest count by Jack R.

MICHIGAN AVE., CHICAGO, ILL. 60602NEW YORK • BOSTON »PITTSBURGH • LOS ANGELES • SAN FRANCISCO AroundCOMMUTEE ON AFRICANSTUDY — To strengthen studies relat-ing to Africa, the formation of an in-terdisciplinary Committee on AfricanStudy has been announced. Robert A.LeVine, '51, A.M/53, associate professor in the Committee on Human Development has been appointed chair-man of the Committee. He is currentlyon a study trip to Kenya."We wish to assist students, whoseemphasis is on African study, by de-veloping a wider range of course of-ferings within the various depart-ments," said Philip J. Foster, Ph.D.'62, assistant professor of éducationand acting chairman of the Committee.The Committee draws its member-ship from faculty in several scholarlyareas, including anthropology, anatomy,éducation, geography, law, politicalscience and sociology. While the Committee will not offer degrees, it has sofar awarded two scholarships to doctoral candidates in anthropology.NEW GRADUATE TEACHERTRAINING PROGRAM — FrancisS. Chase, Ph.D.'51, dean of the Grad-uate School of Education, has announced a new program which willprovide graduate training for elemen-tary-school teachers in their areas ofspécial interest. The program will leadto a Master of Science degree in Teach-ing. Spécial préparation for teachingthe highly gifted, as well as the under-privileged, will be included.In making the announcement, DeanChase said: "We hâve underestimatedthe abilities of children and learnersof ail âges to grapple with powerfuland exciting ideas. We need teacherswho can convert the child's naturalcuriosity into orderly and sustainedenquiry. . . . Knowledge of the académie discipline must be matched byan understanding of how people thinkand learn. Tomorrow's school teacherwill hâve to exercise great wisdom infinding the fruitful moment for a givenkind of learning for a particular childor group."NASA CONSULTANT — Dr. H.Stanley Bennett, dean of the Divisionof the Biological Sciences, has beenMAY, 1964the Midwaynamed to the Science and TechnologyAdvisory Committee for MannedSpace Flight of the National Aero-nautic and Space Administration(NASA).Dr. Bennett is a former présidentof the American Association of An-atomists.DANFORTH WINNER — JérômeTaylor, A.M/45, Ph.D.'59, associateprofessor of English and associatechairman of the University's EnglishDepartment, has been named one ofthe nation' s outstanding teachers bythe Danforth Foundation. Mr. Taylor,a scholar of médiéval Latin literatureand Middle English literature, wasnamed a 1964 Danforth Associate,along with five other scholar-teachersfrom throughout the country. The Danforth Foundation said in announcingthe award: "Each récipient . . . hasnot only achieved outstanding successin scholarly work but has also demon-strated unusual skill in classroom teach-ing."The Danforth award provides for ayear's leave from the University. Withthe addition of a Guggenheim Foundation Fellowship stipend which Mr.Taylor has also received for next year,he will spend ail of 1965 in Europegathering material for a history of médiéval literary theory during the 12th,13th and l4th centuries. His majorwork will be at Oxford, England, withadditional research in France and Italy. Although Mr. Taylor refuses to regard himself as a great teacher, AlanSimpson, dean of the Collège, callshim "a master of the art of teaching."A course on médiéval drama, for example, which had as one of its pre-requisites a working knowledge ofLatin, turned out to be so popular that22 students, instead of an expected five,registered. Mr. Taylor promptly setup five separate sections to effectivelyaccommodate ail students.His scholarly publications includeworks on Hugh of St. Victor and twoanthologies of Chaucer criticism.OTHER GUGGENHEIM WIN-NERS — Three University faculty mem-bers and two Argonne National Lab-oratory scientists hâve won Guggenheim Foundation Fellowships in addition to Jérôme Taylor, associate professor of English (see above) . Thewinners and their proposed subjectsare:Robert N. Clayton, associate professor of chemistry — "a study of meta-morphism of rocks in geothermalareas."E. Peter Geiduschek, associate professor of the Committee on Biophysics— "studies of phage genetics."Norman Golb, assistant professor,Department of Oriental Languages andLiteratures — "a study of the économie,social, and religious history of the Jewsof Fatimad, Egypt."John H.

Mr. Coase received his degreeof Doetor of Sciences in Economiesfrom the London School of Economies.He has done extensive work in thearea of governmental régulation ofindustries and in the field of publicpolicy, its détermination, problems andeffect."The Graduate School of Businessand the Law School hâve both pio-neered in developing through instruction and research the interrelationshipsof law and économies," said EdwardH. Levi, Provost of the University, inannouncing the appointaient. Mr. Coasewill also become co-editor, with LawSchool professor Aaron Director, ofthe fournal of Law and Economiespublished by the Law School.JOINT PROJECT— The State University of Iowa, the University of Illinois and The University of Chicago,assisted by $150,000 from the FordFoundation, hâve developed a coopérative effort to train graduate students inthe behavioral sciences through workin Yucatan. They hâve created theInter-University Committee for Behavioral Science Training and expect togive as many as twelve students a yeartraining in social psychology, anthropology and ethno history — the latterviewing history from the standpoint ofthe native Indian groups of the area.Fred L. Strodtbeck, associate professor of sociology and psychology of TheUniversity, and director of its SocialPsychology Laboratory, is The University of Chicago's représentative on thecommittee in charge of the Yucatanprogram. Asael T. Hansen, professorof anthropology, University of Ala-bama, will be résident field director.The late Robert E. Redfield, dis-tinguished social anthopologist of TheUniversity of Chicago, did innovatingresearch in Yucatan some 25 years agoand published books that are still clas-sics in the field. Mr. Hansen was a participant in this study by Mr. Redfield.The Redfield studies will furnish back-ground and orientation for the currentinvestigations of the graduate studentsof the three cooperating institutions.MAY, 1964 THE UNIVERSITY OF CHICAGO MAGAZINE 11The Lawyer'sResponsibility RedefinedFrom an address by Robert F. Kennedy,Attorney General of The United States,given at The University of Chicago LawSchool on Law Day, May 1, 1964. I am deeply concerned over whether, as a profession dedicated to the rule of law, we are meeting— oreven seeing— the challenge which the peculiar char-acter of our urban society is daily making. We con-centrate too much on the traditional stuff of the law—on lawsuits, courts, and formai légal learning— toolittle upon the fundamental changes in our societywhich may, in the final analysis, do much more to détermine the fate of law and of the rule of law as weunderstand it.No single set of expériences has brought this pointhome to me more forcibly than the contacts I hâvehad with juvénile delinquency.The Justice Department's traditional concern is withlaw enforcement. In f ormulating our program on juvénile delinquency it quickly became clear to us that theemphasis could be not upon law violations and lawviolators, but upon the causes of violation. To put itdifferently, youth offenses are not the illness to bedealt with. They are merely symptoms of an illnessthat goes far deeper in our society.For many of the young people law violation is notthe isolated outburst of a social misfit. It is part of away of life where ail conventional routes to successare blocked and where law abidingness has lost ailmeaning and appeal.Surely the answer to this problem is not simply to12 THE UNIVERSITY OF CHICAGO MAGAZINE MAY, 1964provide more and better juvénile courts, more andbotter juvénile institutions or more and better lawyersin the process to prosecute or défend young peoplewho then return to the same désolation which causedtheir difficulty in the fîrst place.What is needed are programs which deal directlywith the causes of delinquency. Thèse are, in short,programs which indicate that ail young people docount in this society.The model programs developed through the Présidente Committee on Juvénile Delinquency ail involveexpanding our concept of law enforcement— from détection, punishment and treatment— to prévention. Weseek to help communities build programs which dealnot with law violation but with eliminating its under-lying causes.The idea of social action programs rather than sim-ply programs of law enforcement is not a new one. Butit is an idea which threatens to leave the lawyer behind-to eut him adrift from day-to-day involvement withthe major social issues of our times.AS A PROFESSION, we hâve conveniently— perhapslazily— abdicated responsibility for dealing with majorsocial problems to other professions— to sociologists,educators, community organizers, social workers,psychologists. Rarely, if ever do the best lawyers and the best lawfirms work with the légal problems that beset the mostdeprived segments of our society. With some outstanding exceptions, that work is done— if it is done at ail—by the members of the bar who hâve least prestige,who are likely to be poorly trained and who are them-sclves engaged in a struggle for économie survival.There remain whole areas of the law where no morethan a handful of lawyers go to assist those most inneed of légal help. How often does one find the needyrepresented by counsel in dealing with social welfareagencies, unemployment compensation review boards,or school and welfare officiais, finance companies, orslum landlords?In the realm of criminal law we are now beginningto fulfill our professional responsibility. To the indigent, we are witnessing a séries of steps toward fairerreprésentation for those without funds. No small portion of the crédit is due to your own Professor Allenwho headed our committee which has made an excellent report on the problems of the poor in obtainingcqual justice in the fédéral courts.That report has spurred efforts on both the state andfédéral level. To thèse efforts must be added full récognition of the monumental work of the légal profession. Law schools hâve contributed much and shouldcontribute more. Légal aid societies, often staffed inpart by law students, hâve done extremely worthyMAY, 1964 THE UNIVERSITY OF CHICAGO MAGAZINE 18work. This University 's program, sparked by ProvostLevi, at the time Dean of the Law School, provides anotable example of public service, community concern,and intellectual inquiry.But thèse efforts are in large part due to the Suprême Court's décision in Gideon v. Wainright, whichmade représentation by counsel mandatory in crim-inal proceedings. But the fundamental question remains: Should there ever hâve been a need for theGideon décision? Did we need a Constitutional détermination to tell us our professional responsibilities?There is a great need for America to live up to itspolitical promise of civil rights for ail its citizens. Butthere is a parallel need for America to live up to theéconomie promise of social rights, of social— and thusequal— justice under law. THE PLACE TO START is to ask ourselves whatis our responsibility in dealing with those problemswhich stem from poverty— from that phenomenon ofmassive privation to which our nation is now awaken-ing and to which our légal profession must now respond.We, as a profession, hâve an obligation to enlistour skills and ourselves in the unconditional war onpoverty to which Président Johnson has summoned ailof us.And in asking where do we begin, we must fîrst rec-ognize that poverty is not simply a condition of want.In the final analysis, poverty is a condition of help-lessness— of inability to cope with the conditions ofexistence in our complex society.We know something about that helplessness. Theinability of a poor and uneducated person to défendInformai question and answer time with students.14 THE UNIVERSITY OF CHICAGO MAGAZINE MAY, 1964himself unaided by counsel in a court of criminal justice is both symbolic and symptomatic of his largerhelplessness.But we, as a profession, hâve backed away fromdealing with that larger helplessness. We hâve securedthe acquittai of an indigent person— but only to abandon him to éviction notices, wage attachments, repossession of goods and termination of welfare benefits.To the poor man, "légal" has become a synonymsimply for technicalities and obstruction, not for thatwhich is to be respected.The poor man looks upon the law as an enemy, notas a friend. For him the law is always taking some-thing away.It is time to recognize that lawyers hâve a veryspécial rôle to play in dealing with this helplessness.And it is time we filled it.Some of the necessary jobs are not very différentfrom what lawyers hâve been doing ail along for gov-ernment, for business, for those who can pay and paywell. They involve essentially the same skills. Theproblems are a little more difficult. The fées are less.The rewards are greater.First, we hâve to make law less complex and moreworkable. Lawyers hâve been paid, and paid well, toproliferate subtleties and complexities. It is about timewe brought our intellectual resources to bear on elim-inating some of those intricacies.A wealthy client can pay counsel to unravel— or tocreate— a complex tangle of questions concerning divorce, conflict of laws and full f aith and crédit in orderto straighten out— or cast doubt upon— certain custodyand support obligations. It makes no kind of sensé tohâve to go through similarly complex légal mazes todétermine whether Mrs. Jones should hâve been de-nied social security or Aid to Dépendent Childrenbenefits. To put a price tag on Justice may be to deny it.Second, we hâve to begin asserting rights which thepoor hâve always had in theory— but which they hâvenever been able to assert on their own behalf . Unas-serted, unknown, unavailable rights are no rights at ail.LAWYERS MUST bear the responsibility for per-mitting the growth and continuance of two Systems oflaw— one for the rich, one for the poor. Without a law-yer of what use is the administrative review procédureset up under various welfare programs? Without alawyer of what use is the right to a partial refund forthe payments made on a repossessed car? What is the price tag of equal justice under law?Has simple justice a price which we as a professionmust exact?Helplessness does not stem from the absence oftheoretical rights. It can stem from an inability toassert real rights. The tenants of slums, and publichousing projects, the purchasers from disreputablefinance companies, the minority group member whois discriminated against— ail thèse may hâve légalrights which— if we are candid— remain in the limboof the law.Third, we need to practice préventive law on behalf of the poor. Just as the corporate lawyer tries tosteer company policy away from the antitrust, fraud,or securities laws, so too, the individual can be coun-selled about leases, purchases and a variety of com-mon arrangements whereby he can be victimized andexploited.Fourth, we need to begin to develop new kinds oflégal rights in situations that are not now perceivedas involving légal issues. We live in a society that hasa vast bureaucracy charged with many responsibilities.When those responsibilities are not properly dis-charged, it is the poor and the helpless who are mostlikely to be hurt and to hâve no remedy whatsoever.WE NEED TO DEFINE those responsibilities andconvert them into légal obligations. We need to createnew remédies to deal with the multitude of dailyinjuries that persons suffer in this complex societysimply because it is complex.I am not talking about persons who injure othersout of selfish or evil motives. I am talking about theinjuries which resuit simply from administrative con-venience, injuries which may be done inadvertentlyby those endeavoring to help— teachers and socialworkers and urban planners.Thèse are not unusual tasks. Lawyers do them ailthe time in every major field of law.It is time we used those traditional skills— our précision, our understanding of technicalities, our adver-sary skills, our negotiating skills, our understanding ofprocédural maneuvers— on behalf of the poor.Only when we hâve done ail thèse things, whenwe hâve created in fact a System of equal justice forail— a system which recognizes in fact the dignity ofail men— will our profession hâve lived up to its responsibilities . . . . to make law not only the guardian,but the agent of freedom. ?MAY, 1964 THE UNIVERSITY OF CHICAGO MAGAZINE 15University Press at WorkPRESS IMPREOn the fîrst day of Christmas,My true love gave to meAn Atlas of Cat Anatomy . . .Acurious ritual takes place at the annual Christ-. mas party given by and for members of theUniversity of Chicago Press. They are ail there, overa hundred strong, proofreaders, copy-editors, clerks,men from the warehouse, men and women from salesand advertising. After the gifts and before the speeches,a duo, sometimes a trio, stands and sings "The TwelveDays of Christmas," substituting for partridge and peartree a number of items— book titles, in fact— not gen-erally suitable for Christmas giving. Mention of eachbook is welcomed with cheers or groans, for they repre-sent the triumphs and failures of a year of publishing.Thèse people, ail of them, begin by loving books—the smell of ink, the look of a well-printed page, thesight of row after row of bindings, the posters andjackets used in window displays. And there is no oneprésent at the party who has not had some brief butimportant rôle in the préparation, production, and distribution of Field and Taylor's Atlas of Cat Anatomy,Booth's Rhetoric of Fiction, Kurland's Suprême CourtReview, Tillich's Systematic Theology, Nefs Conquestof the Material World, Morgenthau's Politics in the20th Century, or McNeill's Rise of the West. Whenthe party ends, each man and woman carries away aChristmas bonus, a book of his or her choice publishedby the University of Chicago Press.For over seventy years, the Press has attracted toits employ people who take a spécial interest in books.In that period it has published over 4,000 titles, aquarter of them still in print, and adds to that listat the rate of about one hundred new books a year.John Kendrick, one of the editors at the University of Chicago Press, is also editor of MIDWAY,a quarterly journal published by the Press to callattention to its books and journals.MAY, 1964SIONS, 1892-1964 by John KendrickThe Press imprint fîrst appeared in 1891, but it wasnot until the next year that learned books and journalswere added to the announcements and bulletins of theUniversity. The Press had begun as a private corporation, operated by Daniel C. Heath of Boston. The newcorporation, fulfilling Président William Rainey Har-per s original plan for a press as a part of the University, included a printing plant, a retail bookstore, anda department for the purchase of library books andlaboratory supplies. As historian Allan Nevins haspointed out, for the fîrst time a university press wasmade an intégral part of an educational plan. Theprinting plant was located in the Loop on MonroeStreet, the purchasing and retail departments in CobbHall on the campus. In 1894 the administration decidedto buy the stock and equipment of the Press. Accord-ingly, the printing plant was established in a tempo-rary library and gymnasium building near the siteof the présent Reynolds Club, and in 1902 the Pressmoved into its own new building on the corner of58th and Ellis, made possible by a donation of $110,-000 from John D. Rockefeller.Over the years, the University probably has investedmore than three or four million dollars in the Press, andrecently the Press has been able to return a widow'smite to gênerai funds. Today the Press is the largest ofail American university presses in the volume of its booksales, with a yearly business, including subscription in-come from its scholarly journals, of about three milliondollars. Each year the Press ships ail over the worldmore than a million books and journals. A number ofthèse, of course, leave little trace, but out of the ap-proximately 60,000 pages of new work, and the nearlythirty million words the Press prints annually, somefew hâve an importance far beyond the rest, just asJohn Dewey's The School and Society, published bythe Press in 1899, remains in demand today.The process of publishing is not a mystery,although it may seem so to those whose manu-scripts hâve gone begging. The University of ChicagoPress receives one thousand or more manuscripts and book outlines or proposais every year, and even if eachmanuscript was the best and the most important in itsfield the Press has a physical plant, facilities, and employées available to publish less than a tenth of thosereceived. The task of winnowing is shared by a dozeneditors, who in turn consult scholars in various fieldsfor their advice and opinions. The results of the editors' délibérations are reviewed by the Director andthe faculty Board of University Publications.Manuscripts arrive from authors already publishedby the Press; from members of local faculties; fromscholars throughout the world who admire the Uni-versity's "quest for excellence" in scholarly writingand publishing; and, a last, vexing category, "over thetransom." Each month some thirty or forty manuscriptsare received from hopeful writers in search of sym-pathy for the child of their pen or typewriter. Thegirl of nine who has written her fîrst poem and the oldgentleman of ninety who has discovered God's Uni-versal Plan turn to the Press for a sign of encouragement, a word of enthusiasm. (Many are disappointed,and yet the range and variety of Press publications isnot short of bewildering; nor does it fail to impress.)The Press may not publish the nine-year-old or theninety-year-old, but it has undertaken to publish themonograph that sells fifty copies as well as the paper-back manual for thesis-writers that will sell 75,000copies a year. It can point to the late Sir WilliamCraigie's four-volume Dictionary of American Englishand Mitford Mathew's two-volume Dictionary ofAmericanisms. It is in process of publishing a nine-volume édition of Edmund Burke's letters and an édition of the papers of James Madison that may well runto forty volumes. It can boast of The Complète GreekTragédies and the forthcoming Complète RomanDrama. It can announce over the next few years atranslation from the German of an eleven-volume édition of the collected essays of Paul Tillich. In thesciences are The Collected Papers of Enrico Fermiand multivolume séries on The Solar System and Starsand Stellar Systems, edited by Gérard Kuiper andBarbara Middlehurst. continuéeMAY, 1964 THE UNIVERSITY OF CHICAGO MAGAZINE 17But a book is not useful until it is read, and to seethat it is read calls for the combined efforts ofPress copy-editors and those who promote and dis-tribute Press books. Over a two-year period, and aver-aging the work done by newcomers as well as moreexperienced staff members, it was found that copy-editors insert and extract commas at the rate of about22 printed pages per day. Highly specialized worksinvolving technical vocabularies, recondite materialsand concepts, and (frequently) complicated charts,graphs, and other "graphie aids," slow down the edi-tor's pace appreciably. So does another factor, lessoften mentioned by publishers who deal with scholarlymanuscripts: prof essors do not always write well, andtheir faults of communication range from lack of asensé of audience to a degree of insecurity in the useof English. The copy-editor must help as best he can,thinking equally of the book in process and of thestandard the Press seeks to maintain.The selling of the traditional scholarly monographposes additional problems in a time of rising costs inail phases of publishing. The shelves of bookstores arecrowded, and the compétition for space is increasing.Campus markets become accustomed to paperbackpriées, and the relatively expensive monograph willsuffer if a number of other studies on the same subjectare available at half the price. Is the clothbound bookobsolète? Should the publisher gamble on large print-ings in paperback, hoping that the audience increasesas the price decreases? The Press has answered thisquestion by establishing its Phoenix paperback séries,each year publishing certain titles both in clothboundéditions and paperback as well as issuing some well-cstablished books in paperback éditions. In most instances, sales of both éditions increase and some classicsseem to take on new life. The Press has not yet at-tempted to publish a scholarly monograph as an original paperback, but this may be its future course. "Inthe French style," new works could appear in paper,and only when they hâve proved themselves wouldthey be bound in cloth.The Press has always been a small publisher of text-books, ever since its fîrst text in 1893, because commercial publishers are not eager to venture capital forexpérimental texts. The textbooks published by thePress in the thirties were tailor-made for the new System of éducation being developed on the campus. Ithappened that the "Chicago Plan" of undergraduateéducation caught on across the country, and the textswere adopted and soon became widespread.Illustration at top: Linotype operator sets type from correctedmanuscript.

Any monograph, any collection of readings found to be a useful teaching aid, mayqualify. The Press, as a tax-exempt institution, does notknowingly compete with commercial publishers forthe right to publish a textbook, but it still publishes afew expérimental texts which even the commercialpublishers themselves generally feel to be "more suita-ble for university-press publication." Largely, thismeans graduate-level works of a highly specializednature.The University of Chicago Press has not yet begunto issue audio tapes and microfilms, but this step maylie ahead. Meanwhile, it does issue from time to time,as quickly as possible after such meetings, Verbatimreports of scientific congresses. Another type of "quick"publication, needed more often in the sciences than inother areas of research, is the direct reproduction oflecture notes, a valuable means of disseminating information.Symposia published in book form are often maligned.They are said to be uneven in quality, repetitious,trivial in content. Often thèse criticisms are true. Butscientists, in the face of heavy demands on their time,are more readily disposed to write and deliver a paperthan to publish a book. They may wish to report preli-minary findings, they may wish to urge adoption ofspécifie techniques; in each instance prompt publication is essential. Scientists will make an effort to com-municate with other scientists if given the chance. Thechemists want to learn from the physicists, geneticistswant to learn from biochemists; and so it goes. A bookby a single author will also promote this advance, pro-vided a scientist can be found who will give the time.But this is apt to occur only when a plateau in the fieldhas been reached, when there is a moment to breathe,look around, and sum up the advances to date. To aidin the dissémination of current knowledge and theory,the Press publishes the "Scientist's Library," a séries ofbooks written by specialists about their specialities interms readily understood by other specialists and lay-men. Some of the "New Plan Texts" written by mem-bers of the Chicago faculty during the Hutchins eraare now available in the "Phoenix Science Séries," ailpaperbacks. And from the authors of substantial workson the physiology of sleep and the behavior of moun-tain gorillas the Press is urging popular abridgmentssuitable for trade distribution. The popularization ofscience can be one function of a university press.ContinuedIllustration at top: Setting monotype for headlines. Center: De-signing a book cover. Bottom left: Daniel C.

The Press seeks to help the intelligentreader who has not kept his skill in a second language.In a récent period, the Press published translations oftwenty-two important books not otherwise available—eight titles from the German, five from the French,two from the Russian, and the remainder translatedfrom the Swedish, Dutch, Latin, Bengali, Arabie,Japanese, and Hebrew. The normal difficulties publishers find in dealing with translations are com-pounded when works of scholarship are involved.Some four versions pf a single title may be attemptedover as many years before a satisfactory English translation is obtained.But there are other problems involved in the publication of an English version of a scholarly work. Itmust be "vetted" by a U.S. scholar and thereafter re-vised in some degree by a member of the Press editorial staff. It may eventually cost far more than the"$12 per thousand words" budgeted for western Euro-pean language translations. Where negotiations fortranslations from Russian, Persian, and more exotictongues are concerned, the costs are even greater.So far, attention has been paid to the content ofbooks published by the Press, little to the format anddesign. But among the members of the Press are anumber who take pride in the production of a hand-some book, knowing that the physical appearance of avolume may often détermine its survival and suspect-ing that an ugly book will not be believed or givenroom on a shelf for long.In the late thirties and the early forties, the University of Chicago Press had a "house style" of bookdesign. Other presses, including a number of tradepublishers, quite often hâve their own styles. (A bookfrom Alfred Knopf can always be recognized. ) Ahouse style that is truly good invariably is the work ofa single designer. When a publisher's list is small, oneman can détermine the impress; but when a list islarge, there is danger of monotony. The University ofChicago Press dépends upon its designer and typogra-pher, its production manager, and a number of free-lance designers. Their particular and spécial talentscreate exciting pièces of bookmaking. Their sole cri-terion is the appropriateness of design to content. Eachbook calls for a particular approach. The design for amonograph may be simple and utilitarian; books in a20 THE UNIVERSITY OF CHICAGO MAGAZINE MAY, 1964séries must be harmonious; the design of a "scholarlytrade book" can help its sale; some books require spécial considération because of their graphie content;and the problems encountered in référence books, text-books, and médical books are met by designs appropri-ate to each.As a maker of fine books, the Press has reason totake pride in its Manual of Style. Now in its eleventhédition, and in process of revision, it originated oversixty years ago in a single sheet of fundamentals jotteddown for his own guidance by an early proofreaderat the Press. Typography, like any art, is bound byconventions and rules. Perhaps, in the déférence whichmust be paid to consistency and uniformity of style,it is as confined to precept as many an exact science.Since the manual is a manual of practice, its apparentdogmatism will be understood. The publisher mustdécide, or at least act as if a décision had been made,in cases where scholars are still debating. Few of therules in the manual are inviolable; they were not de-vised to forment or to plague the author but to aidhim in obtaining for his work what virtue lies inconsistency. The manual has been adopted by theforemost publishers in the United States and is to befound in use throughout the world.Design and production work hand-in-glove. ThePress has proved itself in récent years by winning anumber of honors, complementing the award-winningbook with the award-winning design.Not so long ago, the "communication gap" ofmost concern to scholars lay between thescientist and the layman. Then the scientist foundthat specialization was causing a similar gap betweenscientists working in différent areas. Now the scientistcomplains that he cannot keep up with publications inhis own field. Obviously, scientific research of conséquence should not go unreported, if only to assure thatthe scientist does not repeat the work done by another.The scholarly journals offer in summary form an indication of what has been done and what direction thesciences are taking.The Press now publishes twenty-seven journals,ranging from the Botanical Gazette, the Journal ofInfections Diseuses, and Perspectives in Biology andMedicine to the School Review, the Library Quarterly,Modem Philology, and the Journal of Religion. Beginning with the Journal of Political Economy,established during its first académie year, the University has founded or undertaken the publication ofjournals when the need arose for the immédiate dissémination of scholarly investigation. Most of thèse areof extremely limited circulation, ranging from less thanfive hundred copies of a single issue to some (rare)few published for an audience of 15,000. Necessarily,the number of copies distributed has little to do withthe importance of the contents. Some 14,000 subscrip-tions go to foreign countries where a single copy mayend up being read by several hundred people. Com-mur.ist China and Soviet Russia provide customers, asdo India and Pakistan, and in récent years the Voiceof America has been sending free subscriptions toscholars in the Iron Curtain countries, much to theiriningled pleasure and dismay.Poetry, plays, early Chicago novels; an atlas of theinoon and an introduction to human physiology; anew translation of the fables of Aesop and a study ofthe mountain gorilla; a philosophera prédiction of thefuture of mankind; an analysis of the nature of pain, adiscourse on the décline of the belief in Hell, and astudy of the financial problems of graduate students—ail come pouring from the Press to teach, arouse, andsometimes upset both scholars and laymen. ?MAY, 1964 THE UNIVERSITY OF CHICAGO MAGAZTNE 21Press Conférence featuredat Chicago Fund Kick-OffChicago— Thursday, May 6235 Chicago area Alumni Fund leaders met todayat the Mid- America Club for a spécial kick-off meeting,to receive final instructions and to hear PrésidentGeorge W. Beadle and Provost Edward H. Levi in apanel discussion. The panel took the form of a newsconférence to which members of the Chicago presscorps were invited. Helen Fleming of the ChicagoDaily News, Ruth Moore of the Chicago Sun Timesand Dorothea Kahn Jaffe, T7, of The Christian ScienceMonitor fired the questions. The meeting was moder-ated by Alumni Fund Chairman Ferd Kramer, '22.In singling out the leaders of the major divisions, Mr.Kramer pointed out that Jay Berwanger, '36, as chairman for the Fund in greater Chicago is responsible foralmost hait of the money which must be raised thisyear. Since numerous alumni are in teaching and re-lated professions, a spécial Committee of Educatorsunder the chairmanship of Burton Duffie, '31, A.M/34,was formed.The effective advance work of the spécial gifts division under Errett Van Nice, '31, was credited by Mr.Kramer with the good overall showing to date. Andthe Communications Committee under its chairman,Richard Schlesinger, '35, received spécial mention forits valuable rôle in assisting with the direct mail ap-peals and in planning long range communicationsprograms.Mr. Kramer also gave particular thanks to ArthurBaer, '18, who as chairman of the national recruitmentcommittee helped to establish the key leadershipthroughout the country.Left to right: Ruth Moore, Chicago Sun Times; Dorothea KahnJaffe, Christian Science Monitor; Helen Fleming, Chicago DailyNews; Ferd Kramer, Moderator.

Mr.Levi added that incoming students in the Collège hâveincreased their score on the Collège Boards by sixtypoints on the average in the last five years. "It ranksamong the five top schools in the nation in its CollègeBoard scores."When asked about the "image" of the "well-roundedstudent" Mr. Levi stressed that the primary aim is toattract the highest caliber of students. "Beauty andbrawn will take care of themselves."The freshman class this fall will consist of 335 menand 218 women. The size is unexpectedly large."We may hâve to launch a rush fund appeal to buildone or two new dormitories," Mr. Beadle quipped.Mr. Levi was then asked to define the University's"académie atmosphère." The reporter stated that dur-ing récent faculty interviews she could not help butbe impressed by the fréquent favorable mention ofthis phrase.Mr. Levi: "The U. of C. is a unique académie com-munity, first, because it is easily and naturally inter-disciplinary and secondly, because the University hasa minimum of red tape and provides académie freedomin a real sensé. This freedom allows the faculty to dowhat they want to do, and this is usually what anyoneelse would want them to do."Questioned about the rôle of the University in thecommunity, both Mr. Beadle and Mr. Levi pointedto spécial community projects conducted by bothfaculty and students. There are spécial teaching andenrichment projects for children. The Harper CourtDevelopment is faculty sponsored. This is a development for low rent shops and studios for artisans andcraftsmen, who havé traditionally been part of theHyde Park scène. Many had previously been displacedby urban redevelopment. The fact that seventy percent of the faculty live within the gênerai communityhas its own stimulating effect.Mr. Levi then went on to state that urban renewalin the area had cost the University 27 million dollars."But the job just had to be done." He added that thismoney could otherwise hâve been used for facultysalaries, scholarships, etc. The University's years ofgreatness, he pointed out, hâve usually coincided withthe years when faculty salaries were accordingly high.High salaries must be maintained and even furtherimproved. OUMMARIZING the purpose of the Alumni FundCampaign, Fund Chairman Ferd Kramer reviewed theimmense contribution to higher éducation made by theUniversity. "We mean to keep it that way! To do that,we must hâve the best faculty attainable, the mostpromising students and the facilities and climate consistent with this goal. The money we raise through ourefforts is essential to that purpose."More than one thousand campaigners in 250 organ-ized communities hâve volunteered their efforts. Asthe campaign rolls into the concluding weeks alumnieverywhere are being asked to join as active partnersin the challenge in éducation that is The Universityof Chicago. nMAY, 1964 THE UNIVERSITY OF CHICAGO MAGAZINE 23Alumni \ti Return to Class"The University of Chicago set out to give us an in-terest in educating ourselves for the rest of our lives....
