Educators, individualstudents, and student groups aretaking a stand on an old andtouchy subject — loyalty oaths.This time the debate is in con¬nection with the loyalty oath pro¬visions of the National DefenseEducation act which makes itnecessary for a student to signa loyalty oath and affidavit inorder to obtain a federal loanunder the National Defense Loanfund set up in 1958.Staff writer Barbara Froeh-Keh. The Ohio State Morning Lan¬tern. reviews the situation: “OhioState’s reluctance to withdrawfrom the program because of theaffidavit.is understandable in thepractical sense since its NationalDefense Student Loan program isso heavily supported by the gov¬ernment ($250,000 a year). How¬ever. many educators have hopesthat during the next session ofCongress, the requirement will berevoked.“With the possible increase inFederal aid, many educators fearthat if the loyalty affidavit is kept,there will be an increase in stip¬ulations in order to receive fu-tuie benefits.“Two main differing opinionshave evolved concerning theIssue. One viewpoint may be ex¬emplified by former Senator JohnW. Bricker, a university trustee,who feels that since the tax¬payer's money is being used, thesigning of such an affidavit isthe least a recipient of a studentloan can do.“Along this same line, manyfeel that the government has aright to be assured that benefi¬ciaries of its loan program areloyal Americans.“Lloyd M. Parks, dean of thecollege of pharmacy and chair¬man of the scholarship commit¬tee. feels that no particular goodpurpose is served by the affidavit.Alumni Secretary John Fullenstates that the ‘purpose of the affidavit, which is to catch Com¬munists is defeated because Com¬munists readily sign such affi¬davits/** ‘No one objects to proclaiminghe’s a loyal American but forc¬ing a free American to sign apledge of loyalty is somethingelse again,’ Fullen said.”The Minnesota Daily reports theMinnesota Student AssociationLegislative Affairs commissionvoted 6-1 to present a resolutionto MSA opposing the loyalty oathprovisions of the National De¬fense Education act. The resolu¬tion deplored the non-communistdisclaimer as placing students ina disloyal light, but will recom¬mend that the University remainin the program in order to helpstudents in financial need.Reader Bob Tobin expressed hisviews in one of many letters sentto the Syracuse Daily Orange fol¬lowing action by the Joint Studentlegislature to support the loyaltyoath clause: Bob’s reaction, inpart:“I wish to congratulate themembers of Joint Student legis¬lature for voting on the loyaltyoath the way they thought, rightor wrong, and not the way Har¬vard, Yale, Swarthmore, Antiochor anyone else thought. . .“I also wish to commend theadministration, even though op¬posed to the loyalty oath, for stillallowing the students the freedomto decide for themselves whetheror not the loyalty oath restrictstheir thoughts. A freedom thatdoes not exist at Harvard, Yale,and the rest of the crop. . .“This is not an oath of loyaltyto a form of government, a groupof ideas, or to men in power; butan oath of loyalty to the constitu¬tion, a guarantee of freedom, andto civilization, possibly our onlyhope for survival. We do not ob¬ject to the pledge of allegiance,but this limits our freedom toa greater extent. . .“If we feel sorry because of our‘restricted’ freedom perhaps weshould go to the library and readabout one of the greatest thinkerstime.’’ of all time. If only Socrates hadhad our ‘restricted’ freedom! Ifonly we had Socrates’ understand¬ing for the need of order and thestate!” ~Student Life editors, Washing¬ton university, plead for repudia¬tion: “WU should be the nextuniversity to repudiate the loyaltyoath connected with student loansfinanced by the Federal Govern¬ment. . . . The fact that WU isa privately-endowed universitymakes the repudiation of the oatheven more necessary. Because itis not tax-supported, the Univer¬sity has no governmental restric¬tions with regard to the characteror beliefs of the students whomay enroll.“In effect, by restricting Fed¬eral loans to those who sign theoath, the university is excludingthe pursuit of education by thosestudents who are unable to fi¬nance their education except inthis manner and who conscien¬tiously must reject the oath. . . “No funds are so importantthat an oath of loyalty is neces¬sary for their distribution. WU’sadministration should recognizethis and repudiate the oath imme¬diately.”Russian students “meet the press"(ACP)—From the Duke Chron¬icle, Duke university (Durham,N.

Some replies were:1. The Soviet Union does notexpect the US to overtake or sur¬pass it in the scientific conquestof space.2.

Our admissions office hasbeen doing a truly creative job inorganizing conferences of thesekey people in cities widely scat¬tered over the nation. This is doneto acquaint high school counsel¬lors with our standards for ad¬mission and with our admissionprocedures. This knowledge will become increasingly important inthe days ahead when a tidal waveof eighteen-year-olds will be seek¬ing college educations.”Simpson next pointed out thathe had stressed the fact with thehigh school counselors that UCstood first of all for a “top flightintellectual education.” In outlin¬ing the University’s tradition andresources, Simpson said that hehoped that he had conveyed theimpression that UC’s curriculumin general education is designedto provide a common understand¬ing of the culture we live in. Hecalled the teaching methods atChicago “a novel departure ineducation which have done muchto revitalize college teaching.”As to the particulars about UC,Simpson declared, “I havestressed the fact that we are asmall school—a fact which manypeople do not know and find sur¬prising. And I have pointed out the advantages of our metropoli¬tan situation. I am no lover ofcloistered education.”Simpson further outlined thetests which he claims ought tobe applied to the products of anysystem of liberal education. Be¬fore a student enters a university,here are some of the questions hemight well be asked, accordingto Simpson:“Does he satisfy the idea of aneducated man which has pre¬vailed throughout all civilized his¬tory? Is he prepared for his owntimes? Has he sharpened his witson some tough and intricate bodyof knowledge? Does he expresshimself in clear and shapely Eng¬lish? Has he rid himself of whatEmerson called ‘The nonsense ofthe gimwam?’ Has he discoveredthe value of a few simple moralprinciples without which thesubtlest sophistication is shotthrough with corruption?” Meeting weekly for prayerand Bible study, the Inter Var¬sity Christian Fellowship hasa membership consisting ofevangelicsal Christians.

We sincerely hope thisis the last year we participate in this expensiveand cumbersome plan.Under the terms of the Tuition Payment plan,a student, or his parents, can borrow full tuitionand dorm expenses for the term of studies. A stu¬dent has nine months to pay off a nine month loan,forty months to pay off a four year loan. Naturallythere is an interest charge, this tuition companymust make some money on its investment. More¬over, if a student registers for a two, three or fouryear plan, his tuition is insured should his fatherdie.All this would be very good, were it not for thefact that the University already provides almost allth#se services, and charges nothing for it.As it now stands, a student who cannot afford topay his tuition in one lump sum, or in three one-quarter parts, has two choices. He may borrow themoney from Tuition plan Inc., paying it all backIn nine months at four per cent (and this amountsto five per cent as a full year interest) or he maydefer his tuition through the bursar, paying nointerest whatsoever.Old students know that this service of the bur¬sars is available to them; new students do not.The information sent out to new students on Tui¬tion plan inc. made no mention of the possibility oftuition deferral. As a result, of the 65 students who*re currently using the plan, all but two or threeare first year students. Moreover, all the mechanics, all the book work,all the management of the plan is administered bythe Bursar’s office. One woman spends a majorpart of her time handling this business. It is amuch more complicated procedure than simpletuition deferral, considerably more expensive forthe University to administer.The one advantage of the plan is the life insur¬ance provision. Any qualified parent under sixtyyears of age who uses the two, three, or four yearplan is covered automatically by parent life insur¬ance, at no additional expense. If the parent whosigns the contract should die, the insurance pro¬vides for payment of the remaining costs coveredby the contract. This provides the funds for unin¬terrupted education for the student, but at a rathercostly rate.If a student borrows the full amount of his tui¬tion and dorm expenses for four years, the totalwill be about seven thousand dollars. On this totalsum, he pays a six per cent interest, or $420. He hasonly forty months, or three and one third years,to pay back the sum. Thus he is paying $420 toinsure $7000 for less than four years. This would bea good deal for any insurance company.For doing no work whatsoever, the Tuition planinc. is making a pleasant profit on interest; forutilizing the plan students are paying a good dealextra for services which they can obtain for free;for co-operating with the plan the University isgoing to a goodly amount of trouble in order toobtain and maintain a service of little value to itsstudents, or to itself.editors' columnHours for women under 18irrational ‘unreal concept9Women at this university living month?

(This talk about annexing Wales andLapland is, incidentally, not just idle speculation. Great Britainwants to trade Wales to the United States for a desert. (IreatBritain needs a desert desperately on account of the touristtrade. Tourists are always coming up to the Prime Minister orthe Lord Privy Seal, or the Thane of Glamis, or like that andsaying, “I’m not knocking your country, mind you. It’s veryquaint and picturesque, etc., what with Buckingham Palace andBovril and Scotland Yard, etc., but where’s your desert?"Before I forget, let me point out that Scotland Yard, Britain’splain-clothes jxilice branch, was named after Wally Scotland andFred Yard who invented plain clothes. The American plain¬clothes force is called the F.B.I. after Frank B. Inchcliff, whoinvented fingerprints. Before Mr. Inchcliff’s invention, every¬body's fingers were absolutely glassy smooth. This, as you mayimagine, played hob with the identification of newlxirn babies* in hospitals. From 1791 until 1904 no American parent everbrought home the right baby from the hospital. This later be¬came known as the Black Tom Explosion.(But I digress. England, I was saying, wants to trade Walesfor a desert. Sweden wants to trade Lapland for Frank B.Inchcliff. The reason is that Swedes to this day still don’t havefingerprints. As a result, identification of babies in Swedishhospitals is so haphazard that Swedes flatly refuse to bringtheir babies home. There are, at present, nearly a half-billionunclaimed babies in Swedish hospitals—some of them well overeighty years old.)But I digress. Marlboro is, of course, an ideal Christmas gift^ for your friends and loved ones who enjoy filter cigarettes. If,on the other hand, your friends and loved ones like mildnessbut don’t like filters, then you can’t go wrong with a carton ofPhilip Morris. If your friends and loved ones like a subtlymentholated cigarette that combines refreshing taste with highfiltration, then buy a carton of Alpines. (Alpines, incidentally,are named after the late Albert G. Pine. Al Pine worked all hislife to invent a cigarette that would combine light menthol andhigh filtration, but alas he never succeeded. As by-products ofhis research he did manage to invent the atom, the goosenecklamp and the cocker spaniel, but the lightly mentholated highfiltration cigarette, alas, never. Now this dream is realized,and what could be more fitting than to pay tribute to this gal¬lant man by calling this cigarette Alpine?) c i*m m«shui...»«• * •We, the makers of Marlboro, Philip Morris arul Alpine arenou* enjoying our sixth year with Max Sliulman. Obviously,we think he is a funny fellow. We think you’ll think so too,if you look at his television series “THE MANY LOVESOF DOBIE GILLIS”—and read his latest book, ”1 ATEEN-AGE DWARF.”December 15-January 3ODETTAThe Gate of Horn — 753 N.

Even ifof high intelligence, his chancesof going on to college are small.And this failure is particularlysad, since; for a Negro, educationik one of the few channels of mo¬bility. Often there are few open¬ings in the professions, but thereare even fewer in business.What has been the reason forthis failure? Most of them havegone through grammar school inthe South, or in the overcrowdeddoubleshift schools of Chicago’sNegro districts; they have nothad good basic training. Most oftheir parents, who were educatedin the “separate but equal"schools of the South, can offerthem little help.The campus NAACP is start¬ing a long term program of freetutorial help, believing that if astudent does have some motiva¬tion. and does show signs of abil¬ity to develop intellectually, hemay bo able to profit greatlyfrom individual help, and be able,for instance, to get into and man¬age a state university education,which he might otherwise havemissed. As college students, wewould be aware of what he need¬ed most, and could give valuablehints for studying and compre¬hension. We could, perhaps, widenthe cultural background.Other students might be en¬ couraged simply to finish highschool, an accomplishment whichwould affect the rest of theirworking lives.The most valuable aspects ofthe program would be that, forperhaps the first time in hisschool career, the student wouldbe getting some individual atten¬tion and encouragement.We are not going to work mir¬acles this way, or change the so¬cial structure. The advantages ofthe plan are these: that it is con¬structive; that the relationshipwill be rewarding in itself; andthat, since we are dealing withindividual people rather thanwith statistics, any success byany one of them will have madethe program worth while.We need volunteer help. Any¬one who has a real interest inteaching and can offer two and ahalf or three hours a week is wel¬come. We had thought that smallgroups of three might be the bestarrangement, but it might turnout that individual tutoring wouldbe more useful.

He often goes to partieswhere he either becomes intense¬ly involved in a discussion of the"good life” or else sits supremelyaloof from all festivities—a de¬tached observer rising above allothers. Parties, by the way, nevermean fraternity parties. It shouldbe evident that, since AristotleSchwartz is a liberal, he is decid¬edly anti-fraternity.Next to intellectualism, liberal¬ism is Aristotle’s strong point. Aliberal on campus is one who feelsthat Robert Maynard Hutchin’sphilosophy of education was di¬vinely inspired (this, perhaps,gives God too much credit) andmust therefore not be altered.Whenever the University Facultymeet to discuss changes in cur¬ricula, Aristotle pickets theirmeeting and carries banners de¬crying their actions. Aristotle’sview is that any such changemust necessarily be reactionary.If you manage to become rea¬sonably friendly with Aristotle hemay invite you up to his apart¬ment. Actually, it is his home be¬cause (as Aristotle will quicklyinform you) he cannot go back tohis parents. He is properly proudof the fact that he has firmlybroken away from the narrow¬minded, tradition-oriented com¬munity from whence he came. He has made his home here with hisfellow expatriates.The apartment he shares withone or two roommates is rathersparse and dimly lit. There areprobably no rugs, but there willcertainly be butterfly chairs,brick and board bookcases (glassbricks, of course) and someFrench Impressionist prints dec¬orating the place. He and hisroommates lead a happy-go-lucky,free-wheeling, free-thinking, and free-loving life which may ina*press you as coming straight outof The Sun Also Rises, if you hap*pen to be an outsider.I must warn you that it wouldbe futile for you to dispute Ari»totle’s way of life with him for hipmasterful control of dialectic wiHquickly overpower you.

I realizethat Huxley did indicate thatthere are dangers which mayarise in the future. But his gen¬eral attitude is that the circum¬venting of those dangers is in ourhands, or at the least, at ourfingertips, and we need only makecareful plans.A careful listener and observerat the centennial discussions mayhave noticed that at various timesvarious doubts arose among someof the panel members as to theefficacy of that very system ofconceptual thought, (in dealingwith natural phenomena such asevolution,) which Huxley consid¬ers to have emancipated man."Let’s not get into an argumenton semantics, let’s try to be moreexact in our use of language inthe future, let’s define our terms”are some of the phrases that re¬peatedly came up.Huxley was one of those who repeatedly tried to avoid "seman¬tic” arguments which he consid¬ered irrelevant. However, as oftenis the case, this attempt on Hux¬ley’s and some of the other evolu-tionaries’ parts to push aside thisproblem of the meaning of lan¬guage, may be indicative not somuch of the irrelevance of theproblem but of the utter incap¬ability of its being dealt with bythe panelists, whether importantor not.What the five panels conspicu¬ously lacked, as a matter of factrwas just exactly someone versedin semantics as well as signifies(although a logician might havebeen welcome, too). For as Hux¬ley and the others would readilyadmit, language—the expressionand manifestation of symbolicthought and activity—does servea function. Although all language,even at the most primitive level,functions as the vehicle for sym¬bolic thought, the activity uponwhich the language is centeredwill vary according to the stateof cultural development or evolu¬tion. It will be noted in the studyof some non-Indo-European lan¬guages which have not developedan alphabet and still use a systemof picture-writing that generalabstract concepts if existent, willbe covered by a character depict¬ing some object or action thatexemplifies or is analogous to thequality or condition being de¬scribed. Say, the word for beautymay show a woman, or "learning”may be depicted by a hand witha rod beating a child. All lan¬guages have been found to haveoriginally developed in such away. It will be further noted, how¬ever, that the level of abstractionand power of seeing analogies isthe same in no two individuals,even in the same cultures, andvaries greatly between cultures,depending on the state of the de¬velopment of its language whichis related to state of development of its sociological habits (agricul¬tural, mercantile, religious, etc.)Thus Huxley did indeed recog¬nize, that today, due to the devel¬opment of the conceptual lan¬guage of evolution, we need nolonger use the concepts of reli¬gion such a supernatural deities.However, Huxley shows himselfto be unaware of a serious con¬sequence of this when he is ableto express the hope that in thefuture we will be assured that"the sacred quality of the highermanifestations of human life . . .will be highlighted.”I wonder exactly what the word“sacred” can mean to Huxley?For, after all, the development ofethical terms and the develop¬ment of moral concepts and judg¬ments, arose with the rise of reli¬gious beliefs and symbolic reli¬gious activities. If, whether, ona very primitive totemistic levelor on a high theological level,there is no supernatural beingwho absolutely requires the moralvalues of a particular society,then who or what requires them,or if this phrasing of the questionis deemed irrelevant, why followthose values?It might be argued by an an¬thropologist, that the developmentof religion and morality took placein order to secure order out ofthe chaotic and dangerous life ofsome of the early hominids with¬out religion and morality, andthat the need for these valuesprecedes their particular embodi¬ment. Hence if religion is notnecessary, something will take itsplace in order to secure our well¬being and provide a new rationalefor the Ten Commandments.Now this may be true; the ques¬tion is; where is this ethical sys¬tem? Huxley himself seems toassume that if enough people justkeep their minds on The Originof Species and some of his ownworks, perhaps, and thus keep outof trouble, there will be no mur¬WantOUTon bigcar costs?

How many of the pro¬fessors of any university wouldrather discuss Darwin peacefullythan get a raise by pointing outhow much superior their work inthe field of evolution has been,compared to that of a colleague?One of the phrases which CharlesDarwin first brought into wide¬spread use was “The survival ofthe fittest,” and although he neveremphasized the workings of thisin the psycho social system, butonly in the genetic system, howdoes Huxley explain the lack ofit?I very much question how manyprofessors of philosophy, or biol¬ogists, or any other kind of pro¬fessional people would not admitthat they are on a competitivebasis in their “symbolic” fields ofactivity as well as when they aretrying to possess women andtransmit their genetic inheritance.One’s offspring, mate, and oneselfare much better off on $64,000 ayear than on $4,000.Personally, I think Huxleyshould read Freud again, togetherwith some of the existentialistphilosophers and some of thelogical positivists, and finallyMacchiavelli, to mention only afew. Should Huxley do this, hemight become aware of the factthat such a concept as society,essentially consists of the sum-total of the individuals that com¬prise it, and that any particularindividual within any particularsociety will be for the sum-totalof individuals as long as the sum-total of individuals offers him ful¬fillment of his wants.However, it will be noticed,among dogs and many other ani¬mal species, that oftentimes oneindividual will try to obtain asmany pieces of a particular com¬modity as possible, whether thesebe females or bones. If no opposi¬tion exists, the animal will tryto take possession of everythingwithin reach, and then hold on toit as long as it can. Human so¬ciety has been no exception as not only dictators, but business,men, labor leaders, doctors, etc.have shown.Most important, Huxley hasforgotten that the superego arisesdue to the fear of punishment ina child; certainly not due to anyabsolute supernatural being asHuxley has admitted but whicha theologian might offer. Ulti¬mately, individuals are not so eon-cerned with their particular se-lected activity, as with the aimsachieved thereby. That we shouldrealize this today is not so sur¬prising after the pragmatists havealready spoken, together withFreud and Darwin himself. H isthe survival of the fittest thatcounts, not the survival of thesum-total of individuals many ofwhich were not intended to sur¬vive according to natural selec¬tion. This Huxley, together withMuller and some others, will haveto admit.Contrary to Huxley, I ven¬ture to assert that there is a greatdanger in the future to every par¬ticular individual in society fromhimself. The solution of this prob¬lem, which already began to makeKierkegaard anxious, can, how¬ever, not be attained by caringfor others, since one only caresfor others because one cares foroneself.Since any clever individual, nothindered by religious scruples,will try to assert himself aboveothers, should an opportunity forsuch ego-assertion arise he willtake it if it seems safe. As soonas someone will make a miscalcu¬lation of his chances, society ie.the sum-total of all the other in¬dividuals or their representatives— will pounce upon him.Now if at any given time,enough individuals will make amistake, there will be a generalpouncing. But since no gods willappear to help, there being nogods any longer (and even if therewere, everyone would by this timebe equally wicked, and thus noone would deserve any aid, therewill be a little insignificant blood¬shed, a bomb or two and thingswill end quietly), “not with a bangbut a whimper” as Eliot hasstated.

De- Spanish, to learn more than asigned for serious students who year’s worth of college German,course, the inheritance of acquired characters”brought about by a variation. The growth of psy¬cho-social level of evolution is an aspect of thesecond mode.Huxley went on to say that the essential dif¬ference between the biological level of evolutionand the psycho-social level, however, is that thebiological is teleological—the organism has nochoice directed to a desired future state but issubject to forces beyond his control. When muta¬tions do take place, these have their preadaptivcaetiology. However, man’s psycho social level ischaracterized by a freedom in the choice ar.dcausation of his future. Thus, although the psycho¬social level may have had its own pre-adaptivestage genetically, once this level has been, reached,there exists a great deal of freedom. ' * 'In contrast to this statement, H. J. Mullerpointed out the dangers facing the human speciesas a whole due the growing decrease in inter¬group natural selection. Previously, .whenever in¬tergroup selection became inefficient, intergroupselection provided a means!of acquiring new char ¬acteristics, but as there is a growing assimilationand unification of the various human races intoone international communiix toda\ there is thecm:;.-,. f i ’ i ; 'one r . ■" ; ^The « 1 'Stated what had > mentionedby some of the previous panels, that men’s psycho¬social activity is centered around hi< u-e of symbolic thought. As regards tho status of man'sability to communicate today, one of the panelistsexpresed concern that terms are becoming mean¬ingless and that metaphors are becoming confusedand intermingled. Rather than there being anygain in knowledge in many fields today, many disciplines may simply be restating the conceptsof other disciplines in their own terms, or maybe restating their own principles in the terms ofother disciplines. This problem was only brieflymentioned and not really considered by the panel.The committee went on to discuss the importanceof various “revolutions” in human history suchas the development of agricultural communities,the “city syndrome” (writing, metallurgy, urban¬ism, political structures), the religio-philosophical“revolution,” and the 18th century “power” revo¬lution.H. J. Muller again brought up the question ofthe danger of the increase in bad mutations dueto a lessening of selection. By not allowing diseasesto take their toll but constantly preserving weakerindividuals through medical discoveries, the pur¬pose of selection is constantly weakened and thus,in the long run. human society is weakened. Mullerstated that individuals with genetic defects shouldexercise greater control, in the future, in the mul¬tiplication of their own genes. “Conversely, thosepersons more fortunately endowed will feel ittheir obligation to reproduce to more than theaverage extent,” . , y ■The danger of over population was mentionedand Huxley concluded the discussion by statingthat we are facing serious sociological and geneticproblems that have to be dealt with to ensure thefuture well-being of human society. Echoing hisConvocation speech in Rockefeller chapel lastThursday, Huxley said that man will have moreand more to use his ability to beforce in his own experience. -y:.; - _At the end of the discussion, Sol Tax statedhis appreciation of the five panel member’s con¬tributions and noted some of the points which hadimpressed him as significant. do not plan to see ail of Europein a short summer, ClassroomsAbroad tries to teach a seminarin area studies through a summerof actual living in one of thesecities.

Sex¬ton added, however, that there isconsiderably weaker organizationin the oil, chemical, lumber andtextile industries.Sexton stated that the unionmovement in this country hasbeen powerful for only a rela¬tively short period, a great growthin labor organization being coin¬cidental with the establishment ofthe CIO 25 years ago. Unions nowcontrol millions cf dollars in theirtreasury funds, and wield consid¬erable social and economic power.Some misuse powerWhether unions are too power¬ful, Sexton continued, is a diffi¬cult issue to settle. He stated thatthere certainly are isolated inci¬dences of misuse of union power,as when employed in Chicago inthe granting of charters to rack¬eteers.Sexton said that historicallyunions have displayed an attitudeof maintaining complete auton¬omy, even from the influences ofother unions, resisting any kindof governmental intervention. Headded that it was short-sighted ofthe unions not to realize that theywould have to be socially respon¬sible, and that the governmentwould step in at some time, as itdid by means of the Wagner act,in which the government under¬wrote the right of unions to exist,at the same time defining limitsto union activity, and the NationalLabor Relations act, which de¬clared the company union illegal.Bigness is inevitable in our so¬ciety, and it is reflected in mana¬gerial organization structure, con¬tinued Sexton. The auto industryalone, he remarked, spent almost10 billion dollars in the last eleven-year period; during this time, onecorporation, GM, spent nearly 5billion. It is quite obvious, Sextonremarked, that no one is going to get into competition in this In¬dustry.In spending this money, Sex¬ton asserted, corporations aremaking important political andsocial decisions. Citing examplesof a relatively permanent body ofunemployed in Detroit of 30.000,and 75,000 fewer workers produc¬ing approximately the same num¬ber of cars that were producedtwo years ago, Sexton maintainedthat the power concentration inindustry must be counterbalancedto mitigate the effects of indus¬trial decisions. The means in oursociety for achieving this counter¬balance, asserted Sexton, are tobe found within the labor move¬ment.Ours is a middle-class society,Sexton maintained, in which it isgenerally difficult for the work¬ing-class to enter fully. However,the CIO has opened up many po¬litical areas to the working-class.This does not mean that labormovements can break down allthe social barriers, but if thereis not such a movement, he asked,in which direction does hope lie?Must face realityWe must confront the reality,he said, that changes in our so¬ciety are going to have to comeon the initiative of powerful, vol¬untary groups outside the politi¬cal realm, although they will beexpressed through the mechan¬ism of politics.Although the labor movementis powerful, Sexton continued, itis certainly not so powerful as thedaily press would portray it. How¬ever, labor unions have a senseof social responsibility, in spite ofJimmy Hoffa and cynicism, back¬ing such movements as Socialsecurity, tax reform, publicworks, and civil rights.Ending his lecture,, Sextonmaintained that labor unions holdmany opportunities for youngpeople in accepting the socialchallenges which undeniably existin our society.mean we would be able to observeparticle energies at least 10 timeslarger than 50 billion electronvolts, the maximum previouslyobserved.” Thompson holds thatrecord for a 50 billion electronvolt observation with equipmentat Indiana University.The $50,000 building under con¬struction at 57th Street and Ingle-side Avenue is of prefabricatedsleel construction.

Re¬search reactors are used primarilyto provide neutrons for variousexperiments.Dr. Bernard I. Spinrad, direc¬tor of Argonne’s Reactor Engi¬neering Division, said, “The addi¬tion of the ZPR-VI and ZPRIXfacilities to the laboratory’s re¬actor research program shouldmarkedly increase the flow of in¬formation on basic physics neededto advance our development offast breeder reactors. These new critical assemblies will not onlyremove the overload on a similarunit, ZpR-III at our Idaho divi¬sion, but also will give us theopportunity to examine severalreactor systems simultaneously.”Dr. Spinrad commented, “ ‘Jug¬gernaut’ will be useful in ourfast reactor research, by provid¬ing special facilities for calibrat¬ing and developing instrumenta¬tion for ZPR-VI and ZPR-IX. Thereactor also will be valuable inother areas of research such asanalytical chemistry and elec¬tronics.”Argonne’s program of re¬search and development on fastbreeder reactors will be expandedbv the addition of the experimen¬tal facilities ZPR-VI, ZPR-IX, and“Juggernaut."A fast reactor is one in whichthere is little or no moderation,and fission is induced primarilyby fast neutrons that have lostlittle of the energy with whichthey were released. Fast reactorshave potentially high neutroneconomy, making them suitablefor breeding, a process producingas much or more fuel than is con¬sumed.Argonne pioneered the conceptof the breeder reactor.Studies and experiments begin¬ ning in 1945 led to construction ofthe first plant of this type, Experi¬mental Breeder Reactor I (EBR-I), which went into operation in1951 at the National Reactor test¬ing station in Idaho.EBR-I (1) demonstrated theability of a fast reactor to breed;and (2) proved the feasibility ofusing liquid metal coolants inpower producing reactors. It alsoproduced the world's first elec¬tricity from atomic energy on De¬cember 20, 1951. This power wasused to operate the reactor, itsbuilding and associated equip¬mentExperimental Breeder ReactorII (EBR-II) now is being built at the Argonne Idaho division. EBR-II — a considerably larger plantthan TBR-I —• is designed to gen¬erate 62,500 kilowatts of reactorheat and 20,000 gross kilowatts ofelectricity. Net electrical outputis calculated at 17,500 kilowatts. TBR-II is scheduled tor comple¬tion late in 1960.The primary objective in build-mg EBR-II is to obtain engineer¬ing and operational informationapplicable to central station powerplants of this type.Betatron still unsoldThe 10-year-old betatron the University has been tryingto sell for the last 7 months may be sold in the very nearfuture. Many inquiries have been received, but no decisionhas been reached.The unit originally cost the Enrico Fermi institute forNuclear Studies $450,000. The new selling price is not knownThe cost was between $75,000 and $125,000 last July.Buy particle acceleratorAn important research tool,needed for further study ofthe atom’s nucleus, will beadded to the facilities of Ar¬gonne National Laboratory.Contracts have been signed forpurchase for $1,000,000 of a 10million electron volt tandem Vande Graaff particle accelerator.The new Van de Graaff will behoused in an addition to Ar¬gonne’s Physics building. Con¬ struction of this building and pur¬chase of auxiliary equipmentneeded for research with the ac¬celerator will add $1,500,000 tothe cost of the projectCommenting on the addition tothe Laboratory's equipment. Dr.Norman Hilberry, Argonne’s di¬rector, said:“It is our opinion that this ma¬chine will greatly enhance andstimulate the Laboratory’s activ¬ity in the field of low energyLUCKY STRIKE presents .ZfrcA/v ’Djtfftooa: physics and will place Argonne’sfacilities in this field of researchon a level with those found inother laboratories throughout theworld.”Argonne’s Physics divisionnow has one Van de Graaff ae-celartor which serves twelve staffmembers in essentially all theirresearch work. This acceleratorwas built by the staff in 1948 andits performance steadily has beenimproved until it is possible toreach an energy of 4.3 millionelectron volts.Dr. Hilberry explained, “It isapparent that more interestingand potentially significant workcan be done in the higher energyregions which will be provided bythe new, 10 million electron voltmachine.’Historic event!

Otherprinciple researchers are EugeneP. Kennedy, Herbert Anker, andBrigit Vennesland, all professorsof biochemistry at the university.The Hartford foundation grantties together four long-term basicresearch studies at the University.They are:1. Professor Evans' 10-yearstudy of the biochemical ways inwhich viruses produce disease andmay trigger some types of cancer.Viruses are believed to takeover cell processes and cause dis¬ease by two known methods,which are being investigated byEvans.The “temperate” type of viralinfection, involving what arecalled "hidden viruses,” is sus¬pected as the cause of some can¬cers. In temperate infections, nu¬cleic acids from a virus become apart of the cell’s genetic materialwithout causing immediate dam¬age. It "hides” in the healthy cell.Nucleic acids are found in all cellsand are believed to regulate re¬production and genetic transferof cell characteristics.The viral nucleic acid is dupli¬cated when the cell divides, butrt remains* dormant until itsgrowth is triggered. Evans said,"under the proper circumstancesthis ‘hidden’ virus can be acti¬vated (by physical agents such asx rays or ultraviolet light or anumber of chemical substances)and then proceeds to reproduce .One phase of the study is thesearch for the cause of fat de¬posits in the liver that are asso¬ciated with the breakdown of liverfunction.3. Professor Anker’s study ofanother basic cell process, thebiosynthesis of complex proteinmolecules, a research project be¬gun in 1946.A major objective of this re¬search is the use of new “counter¬feit” amino acids which will harmcancer cells but not normal cells.Amino acids, the building blocksof protein, are required for sur¬vival by all cells.In Anker’s study, the counter¬feit amino acids contain flourineatoms substituted for normalhydrogen atoms. While cells canbe fooled into accepting the count¬erfeits, they can’t make use ofthem in growth and reproduction.In collaboration with Anker,George N. Catravas is studyingthe metabolic processes in wholeorgans, such as the liver. Catra¬vas, an assistant professor in theDepartment of Biochemistry, andAnker have found a substance inthe liver which produces a ma¬terial required for the conversionof carbohydrate into fat.“The action of this and other A prominent Chicago exec¬utive has been appointed tothe faculty of UC’s -GraduateSchool of Business.

Simpson of Har¬vard, which reviewed human evo¬lution, beginning with primitiveman.Participants were Simpson, co-chairman F. Clark Howell of UC,Marston Bates of Michigan, Cas-are Emiliani of the University ofMiami, A. Irving Hallowell fromthe University of Pennsylvania,L. S. B. Leakey from the Coryn-don memorial museum of Nairobi,Bernard Rensch of the Universityof Muenster, and C. H. Wadding-ton of Edinburgh university.Hallowed spoke of the fact thatman changes the criteria of hisown natural selection. Man hasinvented a “new system of evoli*tion”: a process of intellectualprogress.The panel discussed the possi¬bility that an intelligent speciesmight have risen from some otherorder than the primates. The factthat man descended from theprimates rather than some otherorder is relevant to behavioralstudies, Hallowed said.When the historical process ofhuman evolution was brought up,Leakey, who has made several im¬portant archeological finds in thisfield, treated the relationship be¬tween man and the other animals of the hominoid family: certaintree-swinging animals such as gib¬bons may be classified into a dif¬ferent family on the basis of theirshoulder structure, but notenough is known now to be sureof how the differences developed.On the question of what humanattributes the miocene progeni¬tors had, Leakey said that stonetools had appeared by that time.As a summation,-the chain of hu¬man evolution is more complexthan a line with branches diverg¬ing; "You can’t ever draw it onpaper at all.”In the pleistocene age manspread to Central Europe and toChina from their original home,possibly Africa, according toHowell. It is important to studythe living sites of these people,noted Howell. This is being neg¬lected by archeologists.Emiliani, having done work onthe problem of dating the eventsof human evolution, told of a lackof direct methods of dating thesephenomena. He dated the appear¬ance of man at 120-125,000 yearsago. Leakey mentioned the incon¬sistency of some of the evidencesused for dating, which leaves adoubt of over a million years asto the date of the beginning of thepleistocene era.The scarcity of hunting landmade primates and early man ter¬ritorial animals — aware of own¬ership of territories — a charac¬teristic which man has kept, claimed Bates, an ecologist. Gene¬tic diffusion was prevented because social groups, due to thedifficulty of hunting and the re¬strictions of territoriality, weresmall. The genetic mixing pro¬duced by the territory-disruptingglaciers made the rapid evolutionfrom ostralopithocanthropus toman possible, according to Emili¬ani. Intelligence like man’s wouldnot have appeared without suchadverse conditions. -Rensch mentioned the apparentlack of relation between brainsize and capability. It wasthrough qualitative, not qualita¬tive, changes abilities such asspeech appeared, Rensch noted.However, information on evolu¬tionary brain changes will alwaysbe very general because we canonly detect changes in outwardform. Culture is a biologicaladaptation, and anthropology andarcheology must begin to thinkin terms of evolution, concludedHallowell.hyde pork's first cafeespressoopen daily till 1open weekends till 21369 East 57th StreetEncyclopaedia Britannicatoday announced the appoint¬ment of Dr. Philip M.

On the other hand, studying is not the best forerunner of Christmas. How can we study when thereis Aunt Minnie to cope with? This seems to be an insoluble problem, but I, clever bird that I am, have discovered how to takecare of both. It happened inadvertently last year when I was studying for a test on Thucydides after going on a Christmasshopping spree. I had heard nothing but Christmas carols all day and when I started to read, "Oh, Come, Oh, Come, Emman¬uel kept going through my head.

The next morning, I nearly failed the test because I forgot the tunes, but all of a sudden, I thought that I would beeating good food in two days, and rejoiced.

We latkeri-ans take our stand not square¬ly, but roundly on pure facts,”said Gerhard Meyer, professorof economics, at the thirteenth an¬nual Hillel foundation mid-wintercolloquy on “The latke vs. thehamma-ntash.”To fully understand the signifi¬cance of this debate, one mustfirst understand the terms used.A latke is a round, flat potato pan¬cake. and is the traditional foodof the Jewish Hanukkah celebra¬tion. A hammantash is a pyramidshaped cookie, filled with eitherprunes or poppy seeds, and isoaten during the Purim holiday.This year, in honor of the re¬cently concluded Darwin centen¬nial celebration, the topic for dis¬cussion was, “The latke and/orthe hammantash: are they fit tosurvive?” Three hundred people,each wearing a tag statingwhether he favored the latke, thehammantash, or “5th amend¬ment.” crowded into Hillel houseto witness the debate, in whichfaculty members from many de¬partments took part.Rabbi Maurice Pekarskv, direc¬tor of Hillel foundation, intro¬duced the debate. He mentionedthat in 1859, two books were pub¬lished. “One,” he said, “they madea great deal of fuss over.” Theother, which is titled “UnnaturalSelection,” was the basis for thisyears debate.Sol Tax, chairman of the Dar¬win centennial committee, servedas chairman of the debate. Hesuggested that If there was noroom at the Hillel house, peoplemight go to either Kent orBreasted halls to hear the debate.“However, he said, “we are hav¬ing some trouble with the electri¬cian today. He seems to be out ofSound.”“Debate foolish”Tax went on to say that thequestion for debate was a foolishone. “There can be no debate. Itis obvious that they will survive,because they have survived. Thequestion is, ‘will we survive?’ ”Tax introduced Louis Gottshalk,professor of history, who. he said,“will tell us why the latke issuperior.” Gottshalk objected, say¬ing, “I believe the hammantash isbetter.” to which Tax replied, “Ifyou think'that, you’ll have toprove it.”Before starting his speech. Gott¬shalk stated that he believed thechairman of the panel to be “a bitovertaxed.” Gottshalk stated thateight years ago, when he firstparticipated in the debate, he hadsupported the latke. “Since then,”he said, “I have done a lot of re¬search and eaten a lot of latkes, so I have changed my mind.”Gottshalk then said that it wasobvious that the hammantashwould survive for a longer timethan the latke. To illustrate thispoint, he showed a picture of thej, -a»’ sJs of Egypt which he saidwere merely a collection of ham-mantashan stacked together.” Toprove that the* latke did not havethis power of endurance, Gott¬shalk showed a picture of theLeaning tower of Pisa, “a groupof latkes stacked up.” The tower,he said, is obviously unstable, and much purpose as that organ ofthe body.”“Cut it out,” said Tax.Kata continued by presentinga sociologist’s view of Darwin'strip around the world on his ship,the “Bagie.” He mentioned that“Beagle” is merely a corruptionof “Bagie,” which was the ship’sreal name. He said that, from asociologist’s point of view, it wasobvious why Darwin invented histheory of survival of the fittest.If people were to take a triparound the world on a bagie, heRobert Streeter, professor of English, was a discontentedobserver of the "Latke vs. hammantash" debate. Here, he isobserved by a bored Sol Tax (I.) and an excited RabbiMaurice Pekarsky.will someday completely tip over.Gottshalk then Jurned to theclassic symbol which Masons useto represent word abbreviations.This symbol is three dots, ar¬ranged to form a triangle. “Obvi¬ously,” he argued, “this is meantto represent the hammantash.”However, Alan Fern, assistantprofessor of humanities and aconfirmed latke man, refused toaccept Gottshalk’s statement.“What shape are the dots?" heasked.Tax then admitted that it is pos¬sible that the hammantash mighthave the ability to last longerthan the latke. “However, what doyou people who live in the dormsthink of food that lasts for a longtime?” he asked.Katz speaksElihu Katz, assistant professorin the department of sociology,was the next speaker. He saidthat this years debate is an appen¬dix to the Darwin centennial. Hecontinued, “And it serves about as said, there would be much perilinvolved, as there is danger infalling off at either the outer edgeor through the center hole. Obvi¬ously, then, the person makingsuch a trip would conclude thatonly tha fittest could survive.A person making the trip on alatke, he continued, would feelthat only the unfittest would sur¬vive. This is due to the fact thatall people would have to huddletogether in the center of the ves¬sel, to avoid the danger that existsat the outer edge. This createsan overdependence on one’s neigh¬bors, he said.However, Katz concluded, ifDarwin had made his trip on ahammantash, he would believethat all species would survive. Ina hammantash, all people huddletogether in the inside of the ves¬sel where it is “soft, and warm,and womb-like.” An example ofthis is Noah, who made his tripon a vessel shaped very much likea hammantash. The result of his trip was that all species survived,Katz had a chart, which he dis¬tributed to all spectators to illus¬trate his point.Tax’s comment on Katz’s speechwas, “I just don’t believe it.”The next speaker, was RachmaelLevine, professional lecturer inthe department of physiology.Levine was not able to attendthe discussion, but a tape record¬ing of his speech was played.Levine said that it was strangethat, “A potato is merely a potatofor 51 weeks of the year, but dur¬ing the one week of Hannukah Hmysteriously becomes a latke.”He also mentioned that a newvariety, a “latketash,” , is beingcreated for use of food duringspace travel.Meyer then spoke in defense ofthe latke. He said that evolutionbegan with the latke. “After all,what was the first cell except asmall latke?” He continued bysaying that the coming form ofair travel, the flying saucer, isactually an air latke. “There iseven a newer form of the airlatke,” he said,, “we call it thefrisbee. Advocates of this type oflatke are called Frisbeeterians.”Meyer then posed the questionas to what comes at the end ofevolution. “Certainly not moreevolution,” he said. “At the end ofevolution we must come to a level¬ing off, a plateau. Now a plateauis round and flat, like a latke.Even the greatest pholosopher inthe world, who climbed the moun¬tain of knowledge, was namedPlateau.” Meyer ended up withan impassioned plea, “Prolatkeri-ans of the world unite. You havenothing to lose but your belts!”The humanist’s point of viewon the topic was then presentedby Fern. He said that evolutionin music had been completely leftout of the debate. He cited as anexample the song “Three BlindMice.” “At first,” he stated, “itmight appear that this song rep¬resents the hammantash. In thefirst place, there are the threedescending notes in the unforget¬table opening of the piece. Then,there is the recurring referenceto the number three. This mightbe construed to represent thethree sides of the hammantash.Song is a round“However, adherents of thisidea disregard the fact that“Three Blind Mice” is a round.What else could the author havehad in mind but the latke.”Fern then played a composi¬tion by the seventeenth centurycomposer Purcell. “This showsthat the latke has firmly estab¬lished roots in music,” he con¬cluded. He went on to illustratehis point by saying that a latkeof Purcell’s is now on exhibition a* the British museum, aKhott^it is mislabeled ml “shoukwplate.”Dr. Joseph Kirzner, professor ofmedicine, then discussed the bio¬logical value of the two victual*.He said that ‘There are two wav sto approach the problem of dige*.tion.” While the latke is round,and passes through the digestivesystem easily, the triangular ham-mantash “can easily get caugluat the lower end of the esophagus,at the enturn of the stomach, orat the pylorus.” However, becauseof nutritive value, Kirzner saidthat he was forced to gove the bio-logical edge to the hammantash.“Although the system has to workharder to digest it, the hamman¬tash gives it greater rewards ”The theological point of viewon the subject was discussed byJohn Hayward, assistant profe.ssor on the federated theologicalfaculty. Hayward, a hammantashsupporter, said that somethingshould be said in. the name of reli¬gion. He shrugged off Meyer’ssuggestion of “A latke shapedhalo,” and continued by present¬ing the classic Christian paradoxof whether what is fit to survivewill survive, and if what survivesis necessarily fit to survive.“It is true,” he conceded, “thatthe latke might outsurvive thehammantash. It could rontinue toexist, thickening in the mold ofits own vulgarity. However, thehammantash will continue toexist, entombed in the stomachsof a grateful humanity, to riseagain- in spirit.”Streeter concludes debateThe final speaker of the debatewas Robert Streeter, professor ofEnglish. Streeter said that as aperson who was participating inthe debate for the first time, hewas very disappointed.
