A report on the residential col¬lege has been issued by the Col¬lege committee on residentil poli¬cy. In this report, the committeetraces the development of the re¬sidential college and what remainsto be done to make it a successfulresidential college.The College, it states, hasmoved away from the position“that students would do better —and would learn to do better—tothe extent to which they were onthe own.” s“We now, as a matter of officialpolicy, regard the student as moreclosely associated with the Col¬lege, and with the other students.Indeed, most earnest student op¬position to the new housing ar¬rangements is linked with expressdevotion to a “voluntary residen¬tial college.”The committee feels that theproblems caused by the changeto the new order are due to the“uneven-ness of College develop¬ment.”. . . If the old notion of thestudent’s status in the college wasthat he paid his tuition and wentto classes — or not — as he likedand saw who he liked and passedor flunked according to his ownpreferences, sc a correspondingchillness marked the University’sbehavior on the other side.The relation was expediential,external, financial. Facilities likedormitories, classroom buildings,refectories, could be provided ifthey could operate on a satisfac¬tory financial basis. The cashnexus held the University to¬gether.“In further illustration of theCollege’s failure to move from thefinancial basis to a more humaneapproach to residential problems,there is the truly unpopular per¬formance of Residence halls andcommons. That agency formulatesand rigidly executes the rules thatmake good business and good ac¬counting.”The Committee felt that itsmembers and the students wereequally in favor of the idea of a residential college. “We believethat it is good for students to livein proximity wit' other studentsand to develop with them commonunderstandings and rules for thedirection of both work and play.”First, the Committee passed aresolution to “make recommenda¬tions from time to time to theDean and the faculty of the Col¬lege, and to be in communicationwith the Dean of students andrepresentatives of student opin¬ion.” The committee met weeklyand conferred with College offi¬cials, with house heads and facul¬ty members, and with representa¬tives of the first-year council andthe various house councils, withother students, including thosewho circulated petitions opposingthe residence rule.“It seems in general possibleto say that we can find our^stand¬ard—that if our facilities all werebrought up to the best wp coulddo quite well.”The Committee stated that thefirst concern of the College wasstudy, and stated that the Newdormitory was not well suited tothis purpose in that it lackedenough single rooms, its wallswere too thin, and there were notenough study rooms.Another problem was, the Com¬mittee continued, that freshmenare all put into one dormitory.The Committee found that stu¬dents were in favor of mixinglower - and upper-class students.“A number of deficiencies in thedormitories, and especially thenew ones, prevent the achieve¬ment of a social fabric appropriateto our intellectual dimension.” Inresponse to students’ demands thatthey have more contact with fac¬ulty, the Committee recommendedas a new’ step, that there he afaculty table where faculty w’ouldeat and students would be free toconverse with them frequently.The Committee also^found that“non-faculty house heads seemfrom students’ reports to be on(Continued on page 2)See Gerhard Meyer's editorial concerning the compulsoryresidence rule on page 6.University.To provide the proper atmos¬phere, a circus tent, 88 feet indiameter, is being erected thismorning in the center of the quad¬rangles.Eleven reunion groups, includ¬ing more than 80 from the classof 1911, w’ho are celebrating their15th reunion, are on campus thisweek.

Other appointments, hestated, will be announced in thenear future.Speaking of his plans for the coming year, Greenberg said, “Ihope to give more coverage to theacademic side of the University,including the research which isgoing on in the divisions. We willbe featuring more articles byleading educators, explaining thework which they are doing.”Plans for semi-weekly publica¬tion are still indefinite, accordingto Greenberg. “There is more tobe learned before a definite com¬mitment is made,” he said, “butwe certainly hope to be publish¬ing more frequently during thecoming year.”Chancellor Beadle and Dean Simpson congratulate win¬ners of Quantrell awards. Left to right are Ray Koppelman,Abram Harris, Beadle, Simpson, Meyer Isenberg, and Irv¬ing Kaplansky.NCommittee favors housing ruleThere are some differencesof views among the membersof the College committee onresidential policy; but gener¬ally, "as individuals” they favorthe rule.John Cawelti, assistant profes¬sor in humanities said, "My posi¬tion is generally speaking in favorof the rule."I think the rule, representinga positive commitment on the part of the University to residen¬cy, is going to operate to improvethe dormitories, which, I think,are drastically in need of improve-"I feel it should be possible forpeople like the dean of studentsto prevent a student from movingout of the dorms when there isa definite reason to think stu¬dents would harm himself by do¬ing so.”Herbert Gochberg said, "I havemixed feelings about the resi¬ dence rule; Fm not sure one yearis enough- I’m not sure but whatthe best interests of the Univer¬sity would best be served in thelong run, with a two year re¬quirement.”He, like the other members ofthe committee felt that the resi¬dence halls were in great need ofimprovement. "There is a greatdeal of doubt about the presentability of the residence halls tobe able to live up to what we want as the residential college.And before tackling the rule, wemust tackle what the college iscommitted to in the way of a resi¬dential college.”He did not think that discussionshould be closed on the residencerule, but felt that discussion mustcenter largely around the "moreacute problem” of whether or notthe college can realize a residen¬tial college.Donald Meiklejohn, assistantSFAC rules in favor of studentThe student faculty admin¬istration court (SFAC) hasruled that the institution ofthe four year residence re¬quirement over the summer of3960 was a violation of DinahSolomon’s "right to notice” underArticle 2 of the Student Bill ofRights.In the same decision SFACruled that the court "has juris¬diction over the dean of studentssufficient for the severly limitedpurpose of making decisions andannouncing opinions in controver-*ies between the dean of studentsand students at the University arising from alleged violations ofthe provisions of the Bill ofRights.”Justices McCam and Meikle¬john dissented from both deci¬sions; Justice Kalven dissentedin the former case, and in thelater voted with the majority,that the SFAC had jurisdiction inthis case.Article 2 of the Student Bill ofRights states: "The right of thestudents to a clear and concisestatement, before entering theUniversity ... of their contrac¬tual rights, obligations, and re¬sponsibilities, pertaining to . . .University housing.”The majority held thatRules haye many causes(Continued from page 1)Ihe average less successful.”On the organization of authority"the rules and regulations fallswithin the responsibility of theDean of students; the implemen¬tation of these rules is affectedand often guided by considerationswhich are the province of theBusiness area; finally, the Collegek committed to an ongoing inter¬est in these rules, since they bearupon the intellectual experience«f the student."The Committee feels . . . thatwnless the conflicting ‘philosophies’[thoce of the College, the Deanei students, and the Business] canbe induced to converge at theright places the residential situa¬tion will fail of a satisfactory es¬tablishment.*T7ie Committee urges the Deanto discuss the situation with theChancellor, urging him to reviewour current problems, to determineto what extent the ideals off a re¬sidential college are realizable inthe tight of present and future re¬sources of the University, and to determine the ways in which ap¬propriate residential policies canbe formulated and implemented."The argument over the residen¬tial requirement has brought intoclear relief the question whetheror not the University of Chicagowill provide residential living con¬sistent with its academic aims. Isthe University willing and able tooffer dormitory facilities and man¬agement of a quality supportingits performance in teaching andacademic program?"It can decide whether or notit aspires to do so. A decision tochange the character of its build¬ings and operating policy wouldrequire time and funds to realize,but a clear declaration, howevermodest the immediate fruits,would, we think, arouse enthusi¬astic student faculty support. Adecision to maintain the solventstatus quo on the style of thebetter state universities would intime be acceptable to the studentbody, but the future student bodyprobably w'ould not be the onewe have or want.” • the plaintiff entered beforethe institution of the residencerule; and• the only statements that thestudent had received prior toentering had informed her onlyof a one year requirement, andhad not given any indications thatshe would be retained in the dor¬mitories longer than one year."A student given this informa¬tion would not find the new re¬quirements to be regulations thathe could reasonably expect to en¬counter on arriving,” the major¬ity opinion said.The purpose of the article, themajority continued, is to “pro¬tect the reasonable expectations ofthe students.”The Court’s decision was in¬tended to encompass all studentsof the class of 3964 who enteredlast fall. "This means that thenew housing regulation is uncon¬stitutional and ought not to beenforced against any student,male or female, who committedhimself to attend this Universitybefore July 25, 3960.”Kalven. in his dissent, stated,"Although, we think the handlingof the notice of the residentialrequirements was unfortunate in this case, we do not regard it assufficiently grave defeat of thestudent’s reasonable expectationsto reach the constitutional thresh-hold for an inadequate notice.Accordingly, we conclude thatthere wras no violation of Article 2of the Bill of Rights in this caseand that the petition should bedismissed.”Mrs. MeCarn spoke of the du¬ties of the dean of students enum¬erated in the articles of incorpora¬tion and by-laws statutes of thetrustees and the officers of theUniversity. The dean “has notdelegated to Student Governmentresponsibility for these duties,specifically those which pertainto this case: ‘the educational andsocial supervision of residencehalls.”The SFAC is a nine memberbody, representing equally stu¬dents, faculty and administration.It was created by the student gov¬ernment constitution which wasratified in 1951. The Dean of stu¬dents and the student body ack¬nowledged the Court’s power tosettle controversies arising underthe student code, the student billof rights, and the Constitutionof SG.UC seeks earlierentrance decisionTHE HOUSEOF PLASMAThe "Unmechanized it*DIVINITY SCHOOL COFFEE SHOPHours: 9:30 a.m. -3:45 p.m.Located in the Basement of Swift Hall•even our Coke machine is "irrational" at times UC will notify candidates oftheir admission to college inMid-April next spring, amonth earlier than this year,because it will change its candi¬dates’ reply date to May 1.The latter date, some 3*4 weeksearlier than this year’s reply date,is the date before which no can¬didate can be asked to make a de¬cision about the college he willattend. It is also the date beforewhich no candidate may be askedto pay fees to his college.Some 300 College Entrance Ex¬ amination board member schoolshave voted on and are expectedto use the earlier reply date nextyear, according to Charles O’Con¬nell, director of admissions here.With the earlier reply date, thecandidate will have time, if re¬jected from the colleges of hischoice, to work with his schoolcounsellor to find another col¬lege.According to O’Connell, the newreply date will push UC’s dead¬line for applications for admis¬sion to January 15 from February15. professor of Social !ences, said"I and others are cc genial to therule now; we are i: lined to saywe have it, let's kc -> it, and seewhat we can do wk it.”He made three m or points re¬lating to the discuss ->n of the ruleand its application."I don’t think thr there is anyargument on the r rinciple thatthe University can’t set up a ruledetermining where students shalllive; it seems clear merely beinga student here is not evidencethat a student can make a wiseinformed judgment rs to where tolive-some can. It seems to methis has been the st’-ky aspect ofstudent negotiations with theDean of students and studentcommittees. Students have feltthat acknowledging the right ofthe administration to set such arule was a committal to a rigidregulation."I also have recommended tothe Dean of students that the rulebe flexibly administered; my feel¬ing is that the petitions weretreated flexibly.”Meiklejohn also felt that thedormitories were badly in needof improvement. "I think it’s apity that the latest dormitoriesare those most open to criticismabout the ability to provide a resi¬dential college. I am enough wor¬ried about the problems of resi¬dential facilities that If time wentby and the facilities didn’t im¬prove, I would think that the ruleshould be closely examined, andseriously considered for revoca¬tion or modification of time re¬quired to live in the dormitories.”Ole Kleppa, associate professorof the department of chemistry,dissented from the views ex¬pressed above. "I do not and havenever favored the residentialrule,” he said."The rule is contrary to myeducational philosophy, to the ex¬tent that I do not feel that aneducational institution wouldmake decisions for students thatthey are capable of making them¬selves.”Kleppa also felt that Chan¬cellor Beadle's reaffirmation ofthe rule was ill timed, "since thecommittee had not yet submittedits written report.” Gochberg feltthat the Chancellor was suffi¬ciently informed of the commit¬tee’s views to make the decision.Meiklejohn agreed, saying thatBeadle knew what he needed toknow to issue his statement.Kleppa continued, "At the pres¬ent time, the rule is here to stay.The Chancellor has made his rul¬ing; to attempt to achieve thegoals stated in the report is theessential thing.”IPS COPYRIGHT £> IM1.

Meer-son, third ($25).Fellow system to changeThe present system of fac¬ulty fellows will be changednext year to “a more naturalone,” announced James New¬man, assistant dean of students.The present plan allots eachparticipating faculty member toa group of ten students. This willbe changed to assign a certainnumber of faculty members toevery dormitory.The change was decided uponfor two reasons, Newman stated.“There is a certain weakness andartificial quality to the groupsof ten,” he remarked. “In manycases they worked out well, butin others the imposed size andcomposition of the group ham¬pered communication. Also, manyof this year’s original groups willdisperse all over the dormitorysystem. They and their facultyfellow would have no focal pointwhere they could get together.“In a meeting I had with DeanSimpson and the senior facultyfellows,” Newman continued, “it was decided to change the pro¬gram for these two reasons.”Each house will have a groupof faculty fellows next year. Theywill come to lunch or dinner sev¬eral times a quarter. “They willbe around the houses, and get toknow the students,” Newmancommented, “And in time theywill associate naturally with stu¬dents with common interests.Small discussion groups, such aswere had with the groups of ten,will still form, but they will formnaturally.“This program is also better inthat it covers next year’s thirdand fourth year students, as wellas next year’s second and firstyear students. Also, each housewill still be free to invite otherfaculty members to visit fromtime to time. “The commutingstudents,” Newman concluded,“will still be affiliated with thehouses as associate members andwill be included in the new fac¬ulty fellow program.”^ 1/fJear (Contact cJeendtsbyDr. Kurt RosenbaumOptometrist1132 E. 55th St. HY 3-8372at University Ave.THREE PIZZA'S FORTHE PRICE OF TWOFree U.C.

All personsentitled to SHS benefits may take advantage of this opportunityfor prevention of polio. The immunization will be available with¬out cost.Persons who have had less than 5 previous shots for polio hadbetter get added protection because some of the vaccine availablein earlier years has not been of uniform antigenic strength. Per¬sons who have had 5 or more shots may well have achieved ade¬quate immunity and do not need more injections now.People of all ages, even adults, should have protection againstpolio. The United States Public Health service recommends fullimmunization of the population up to age 40, but, since therehave been some cases of polio in recent years beyond the age of40, universal immunization would be more desirable.Henrietta Herbolsheimer, M.D.Director, Student Health ServiceTHE FRET SHOPOpen Evenings, 5-10 p.m.and WeekendsInstruments, New, Used, AntiqueGuitars, Banjos, Mandolins, etc.Supplies — RepairsPhone NO 7-10601551 East 57th St. MODEL CAMERAWholesaleCatalogue Prices onCameras, Projectors, Recorders1342 E. 55th HY 3-9259DR.

Woolnerof the Federal Housing and HomeFinance agency said in a speechat the University of Bridgeport.He spoke at the dedication of aj„.\v men’s dormitory which wasfinanced by a loan of $1,600,000made to the University by theCFA under its College Housingloan program.“President Kennedy has recog¬nized the responsibility of the Fed¬eral Government to do whateverit properly can In helping Ameri¬can higher education make avail¬able to all who are willing andable to pursue it the new stand-aid of excellence in educationthat he has set as a national goal,”Mr. Woolner said.‘ We know the dimensions ofthe need — an estimated one mil¬lion more college students en-i-olled in 1966 than this year andnearly double the present num¬ber by 1970.”It will cost some $4 billion toprovide housing accommodationsfor the students who will be en¬rolled in the nation’s colleges anduniversities during this decade,Mr. Woolner said, adding:“This clearly runs beyond thenormal resources of the collegesto provide for themselves.”Pointing out that the Presidenthas asked Congress for a long •range college housing programand that Congress is now consid¬ering a five-year program of$250,000,000 a year for collegehousing loans plus $100 millionto fill out the present fiscal year,Mr. Woolner said:“Upon passage of this legisla¬tion. the College Housing pro¬gram would no longer be on thefeast-or-famine basis of the past.It would have a clear mandateand the necessary authority tomove forward with the collegesin solution of this most difficultproblem.”The CFA Commissioner saidthat Housing Administrator Rob¬ert C. Weaver is “firmly commit¬ted to vigorous administration ofthe program of college housing aswith all the wide-ranging respon¬sibilities of the Housing andHome Finance agency.” CFA isone of the constituent agenciesof HHFA of which Mr. Weaveris the head.Relocated familieshave better housingOver 80 per cent of the fam¬ilies forced to move by theI lyde Park-Kenwood urbanrenewal project improvedtheir housing situation. How¬ever, 62 percent of the familieswho were relocated paid higherrents for their new dwellings, ac¬cording to a recent report by theHyde Park-Kenwood Community Conference (HPKCC).Of the families who relocated,about 31 percent remained in theIlyde Park-Kenwood area accord¬ing to the study. Housing sug¬gested by relocation officials wasaccepted by almost 19 percentof the relocated families.The HPKCC study was basedon a sample selected from a totalof 497 families reported as relo¬cated into standai'd private rent¬al housing. Some of the relocatedfamilies were later found to beliving in substandard housing,however.The report also urges thatfamilies be cautioner! againstmoving into housing which isnow technically legal, but whichmay be outlawed or so changedas to force the newly relocatedfamilies to move again. Since of¬ficials expect a new ordinanceoutlawing certain building prac¬tices now legal, the number offamilies who can be housed insome buildings may be reduced,forcing some to move.Summer lectures setDuring the summer quar¬ter, four members of the UCfaculty will present twogroups of public lectures.So1 Tax, professor in the de¬partment of anthropology willpresent a series of lectures en¬titled “Anthropology in the Mod¬ern World.” They will be held on8 consecutive Wednesday eve¬nings, at 8 pm, beginning June28.Three professors will share aseries of six lectures.

Heis interested only in ‘student-ath¬letes.’ An athlete must qualifyscholastically for the universityfirst.Stampf never approaches aprospective student, before thestudent expresses an interest in the University. “That’s the job ofthe admissions department.

Upon the kind invi¬tation of the Maroon editor [ex¬tended before the decision wasknown], I shall try to explain whyI disagree with my superiors. Icannot help it if my remarks ap¬pear to cater to cheap popularityand sound “incendiary” and evenunprofitable. My only apology isdue to Tyler Thompson and otherstudents in and outside the Ma¬roon office, whose excellent argu¬ments I cannot avoid repeating.Let me begin by listing oneissue, which, indeed, is relevantbut which I have no space to dis¬cuss, and three irrelevant orphony issues. The first issue maybe stated: “Is there a trend to¬wards paternalism, of which theresidential requirement is a fur¬ther symptom?” In my opinion,the question must be answeredclearly in the affirmative; thatmuch of it was unintended andthat there are also weaker andvery mixed countertendencies[cited by Dean Netherton] doesnot seriously affect the truth ofmy assertion.The irrelevant or phony issuesInclude the following points:1] Whether it is' safe to liveoutside the dormitories, in parti¬cular for young female students'.It is not denied that we have asecurity problem in Hyde Park.The answer to the problem liesIn urban renewal and, in themeantime, in proper policing. Itis obvious that the dormitory re¬quirement is no answer. If thesituation were as serious as it issometimes made to appear, theUniversity ought to construct afortress not only for undergrad¬uates, but also for graduate stu¬dents and, indeed, the faculty andits families.2] It is sometimes argued as ifcritics of dormitory living and inparticular of compulsory dormi¬tory living were adherents of anextreme more or* less irresponsible“Laissez Faire” position with re¬spect to all extra-curricular affairsand were opposed to all concernfor community life. As it happens,the compulsory dormitory rule iscriticized by people who are com¬mitted to the values of personalfreedom and of fraternal life, andwho cannot conceive of real per¬sons and communities in separa¬tion from each other. In fact, thisis precisely the stand taken bythe believers in voluntary associa¬tion and the proponents of a vol¬untary residential College.Finally [3], the argument of theDeans’ critics does not imply adenial of the particular values ofa residential college as such. Ihave never lived in a student dor¬mitory, but I would not want tomiss the memory of seven yearsof boarding school with all its dis¬ciplines and challenges and all itsjoys and even its miseries. To myknowledge, all supporters of a vol¬untary residential college amongstudents and faculty, membershave insisted on a first-year re¬quirement rule for most studentsprecisely because a dormitory ex¬perience [under decent conditions]is a good thing and because a stu¬dent who is asked to choose be¬tween dormitory and extra-dormi¬tory living conditions ought toknow what he is choosing or re¬jecting.[Of course, these living condi¬tions should feature adequatespace and food, and opportunitiesfor sharing experience and for pri¬vacy and solitude. Now, the moredecent and attractive the materialand social conditions in a dormi¬tory system are, the more stu¬dents will tend to volunteer forstaying on in the dormitory. Andconversely, the more the dormi¬tory systems have a monopolisticor near-monopolistic claim uponthe students, the less are theacademic authorities under pres¬sure to improve the quality of dor¬mitory living. Thus, freedom ofresidential choice is a very favor¬able, and perhaps necessary, con¬dition for maintaining the dormi¬ tory conditions at a high level ofattractiveness.]But, more than that, freedomof residential choice [after theyear of initiation] is itself an in¬gredient of a good residential com¬munity. I have often quoted LordLindsay’s dictum: “Compulsorymorality is a contradiction interms.” One could as well say:"Compulsory community is a con¬tradiction in terms.” There aremany aspects of student freedomwith respect to living conditions;one of them is surely the genuineopportunity for choice betweendormitories and alternative placesof dwelling and living. And bychoice I mean not a matter of dis¬cretionary favor, but a normal oc¬currence, preferably amountingto a normal right. If these andother relevant freedoms are notnormally present, the life of thedormitory group is, to that de¬gree, tainted with coercive [how¬ever well-meaning] paternalism,apathy, conformity, and repressedrebellion. Surely, that is not theresidential life which the Deanhas clearly established as mostconducive to the kind of educa¬tion we wish to offer.This matter of genuine studentfreedom [which applies not onlyto individual students, but also tovoluntary student associations]ought to be nearly self-understoodin a College whose whole intellec¬tual effort rests upon and aimsat freedom or self-responsibility.I find it hard to reconcile this em¬phasis on intellectual freedom withan extracurricular situation inwhich students are so largely pro¬tected both against the risks anddangers connected with all choice.Students are also protected fromthe creative aspects of choice, theopportunities to do something ontheir own and to grow by concreteexperience in and out of theirnormal groupings. There must besome meaningful connection be¬tween what [and how] studentslearn and how they live.No one denies that students, likedeans and professors, make errors,sometimes serious ones. But thefact that some students cannotuse their freedoms wisely is nogood reason to curtail the free¬doms of all. There are many waysof preventive and curative aid insuch exceptional cases, far shortof coercion. And as far as cur¬tailment of certain freedoms isdeemed necessary, there is awide gap between an authoritarianor paternalistic regime and an in¬stitution which is based on liberalprinciples. In the latter, the pre¬sumption ought to be clearly infavor of a wide range of freedoms,and the burden of proof should notrest with those who argue forfreedoms, but with those whofavor restrictionsNow, with regard to this issueof student freedoms [including thefreedom to choose between dormi¬tories and apartments], I haveheard not infrequently two mutu¬ally contradictory arguments. Onehas been forcefully presented byDean Netherton in his report tothe Chancellor. He says: “Whatdo you complain about? The stu¬dents have sufficient freedom: thefreedom to petition for exemptionfrom the residential rule.” I shallreturn to this argument in a mo¬ment. Let me first turn to theother argument. I: runs like this:"I know, good old John StuartMill! But do you remember thatfreedoms presupposes maturity?Students are unfortunately notmature; they are still adolescents,you know. They cannot be trustedwith the freedom to mess up theirlives.” As a general proposition,I consider this argument ridicul¬ous, particularly if applied to Am¬erican girls of the age of 19 andabove. If anything, they are toomature. Besides, it is rather mis¬leading to think of these poorlittle kids as lonely, bereft of allfriends, unable or unwilling to re¬ceive help and counsel. If oneasks for concrete evidence, onehears references to-drop-out rates[which I shall leave aside; this isno place to go into the elements of statistical inference], andrather dark hints at immoralityamong non-dormitory students,bohemians, beatniks, and “queers”[in Chancellor Kimpton’s sense ofthe term]. Weli, I cannot denythat there have been students whoexperiment too freely with theirlives. But I do not know any sta¬tistics about the incidence of mo¬rality and immorality among dor¬mitory and apartment students[assuming that he could agree onwhat is moral and immoral con¬duct], I am not so sure thathouse rules and rulers can do sovery much to protect a youngman or woman against himself orherself, beyond what can be doneby example, the whole atmosphereof the place, and the very sweepo f intellectual and personalgrowth.And if these or other authori¬ties could do much, I wonderwhether they ought to do so. Formany students and for many situ¬ations, Milton’s words still apply:“they are not skillful considerersof human things, who imagine toremove sin by removing the mat¬ter of sin. . . . Suppose we couldexpel sin by this means; look howmuch we thus expel of sin, somuch we expel of virtue: for thematter of them both is the same;remove that and ye remove themboth alike.” Finally, in this mat¬ter of the alleged moral dangersof living outside the dormitorywalls: I have already stressed thatI consider voluntary dormitory re¬sidence [unde decent conditions]a valuable and creative experience.But there are many students who,at least in certain phases of theirdevelopment, need to get out ofthe dormitory, or at least needthe freedom to consider that op¬tion, not because they are “queer,”but because they grow in a normalrhythm. Dean Netherton hasclearly admitted that much,though he has not admitted thatnormally such a student is him¬self the best judge of what he orshe needs. But, while the generalvirtues and special drawbacks ofthe dormitory are conceded, whenit comes to apartment living, Ihear our pro-dormitorians speakonly of its evils and dangers.At the most, they concede itgrudgingly as a minor evil forsome students to whom specialdispensations have to be granted.I never hear anything about theassets of living on one’s own re¬sponsibility in an apartment. I,as many other colleagues, havebeen invited by students living to-Letter gether in apartments. And I havefrequently — more frequentlythan in dormitories—found some¬thing which I consider extremelyimportant: intimate intellectualand personal friendship groupswhere the presence and challengeof the others is an almost un¬failing guarantee of intellectualand personal integrity and vitality.If there are special dangers inapartment living, there are alsospecial compensations.Turning now to Dean Nether-ton’s argument that the right topetition for exemption from theresidence requirement plus thepromise of liberal exemption givesthe students all the freedom ofresidential choice they need andremoves the sting of coercion fromhas rule: neither objectively norsubjectively [i. e., in the cons¬ciousness of students] is that es¬cape hatch more than a fragmentof freedom. The final decision isstill with the Dean of Students orhis committee; it is they whoknow, as a matter of presumption,what ig best for whom. And evenwith the utmost generosity thegranting of petitions is discretion¬ary, if not outright arbitrary. Stu¬dents ask in vain for objectivecriteria. There are no definite cri¬teria and, in the light of the Dean’swhole approach, there can be nocriteria: it is, and must be, a mat¬ter of hunches and case-to-casejudgments.Since the outcome is uncertainand since the burden of proof ison the student, he or she must livein the dormitory, for all practicalpurposes, as if there were no sub¬stantial freedom of choice at all.It would be different if the stu¬dent had the right to leave thedormitory and the Dean had onlythe right to counsel, except forspecified cases in which he mighthave the right to delay the changein living quarters. [Incidentally,under such an arrangement, evenfewer people than now might ac¬tually want to leave.] At anyrate, I sincerely hope that DeanNetherton will overcome his sur¬prise that students do not equatea general compulsory rule, miti¬gated by uncertain exceptions,with freedom.The compulsory residential rule,if it should stay in force for anylength of time — which God andthe Chancellor may forbid —worries me especially in its grad¬ual effect upon the kind of stu¬dents which our College is likelyto attract. I am afraid that acertain kind of student who needs and values freedom, spontaneity,and privacy will not like to cometo Chicago as much a$ before. Nodoubt, the various Deans’ problemswill be greatly eased; among otherthings, there will be fewer edi¬torials, meetings, etc. on the resi¬dential rule. There will also befewer risks and failures, I guess.But what about our classes andlaboratories?There is one final considerationI wish to offer. The image of Ox¬ford and of the groat Eastern resi¬dential colleges is certainly in theminds *of many proponents of thenear-universal residential collegerule. But we should not forgetthat there are many complex con¬ditions which underlie the gradualgrowth and health of a fully resi¬dential college, conditions whichdid not and do not yet exist atChicago. Are we not running therisk of losing something very val¬uable in the looser Chicago tradi¬tion if we try to assimilate ourcollege to a quite different style?I am not arguing for any kind ofhyper-individualism, but for agenuinely voluntary residentialcollege where the great majorityof students live in dormitories,large and small, but with a signifi¬cant number of students also inapartments, singly, in smallgroups, or in somewhat largerself - governing dwelling coopera¬tives. Is not that solution morecongenial to the Chicago tradi¬tion? The forces of conformism,of compulsive peer-groupism aregrowing all around us, particular¬ly in our schools. Why could Chi¬cago not become one of the fewplaces where freedom and freecommunal living are at home? Ifwe chose that solution [and it isnot simply realize? by abandoningthe rule, but is instead a serioustask], the University would, ofcourse, have to speak very frank¬ly to the parents of our students.Many parents who do not quitetrust either themselves or theiroffspring rather like to have somefatherly or motherly Dean in locoparentis. The University shoulddefine quite clearly which respon¬sibilities are accepted by it andwhich are left to parents and stu¬dents. And then students shouldbegin to educate their parents tothe facts of life.One of these facts is that stu¬dents will be mature if they aretreated as such. Another of thesefacts is that the virtue of a greatuniversity rests in the freedom offaculty and students alike.Gerhard MeyerEx-director of UT commentsDear Sir:I have received several clippingsfrom your May 19th issue, one ofwhich reproduces a letter fromMr. Robert Ashenhurst who, al¬though admittedly having had nodirect contacts with UT activities,felt impelled to contribute somecomments on the current internaldifficulties of that organization. Ifeel impelled, in return, to answerMr. Ashenhurst’s ’omments withsome comments of my own, basedon five years of experience as as¬sociate director of UT.First of all, I should point outthat University Theatre is, andalways-has been, a recognized stu¬dent activity with a student mem¬bership and elected officers. The“director” is given, along with thetitle, a great deal of authority inorder to keep the organization sol¬vent and functioning. His realjob, however, is that of a facultyadviser under the Dean of Stu¬dents’ Office, and his duties andresponsibilities are different fromthose of other faculty advisers on¬ly in this respect: he is assignedto this one activity exclusivelyand on a full-time basis. To state,as Mr. Ashenhurst does, that thestudents and officers of UT arethere to implement and expeditethe director’s directives is puttingthe cart before the horse. Secondly, it is not surprisingthac the theatrical aspects of UT’soperation have not been listed aspart of the board’s dissatisfaction.It is quite a simple thing to keepUT operating, especially with thehelp of the above-mentioned board,and Mr. Alton’s competence, toaccomplish this is perhaps not inquestion. What is being discussedis Mr. Alton’s effectiveness in "ad¬vising” the students on their “ac¬tivity” and providing, in the wordsof Mr. Newman, “good, education¬al experiences” for them. I’m sureMr. Ashenhurst, who has had some experience as faculty adviser foranother theatrical group on cam¬pus, will recognize that when themembership and elected officers ofa student activity strongly opposethe opinions of their faculty ad¬viser, a very serious misunder¬standing has been allowed to deve¬lop, to the detriment of the stu¬dents for whom the activity is de¬signed.I am distressed by the news ofthe situation and I fervently hopesome way will be found to endthe dispute promptly.Richard d’AnjouBias needs ‘rehabilitating’Dear Sirs:It is both a sad and significantcommentary on the state of af¬fairs here in Hyde Park when afaculty member of the Universitywho seeks housing must advertisethat he is a Negro. Obviously, ifcolor were not a factor in thethinking of tenants and, more im¬portantly, landlords, such a nota¬tion would not be necessary.It would seem that the need forrehabilitation of old, unfoundedattitudes and concepts of race ismore pressing than that rehabili¬tation of old, dilapidated housingwhich is now in progress. The community and the University arelosing and will continue to losemore by perpetuating these prej¬udices than they can ever regain.Sincerely,Ernece B.

Andsince I am by no means qualifiedto do any real justice to thoseissues which crop up with dis¬tressing regularity in the worldand on the campus, I shall leavethem to my wiser ageless fellow-scribes and address myself to amore prosaic issue. As if fromsome ghastly cave of shadows, itconfronted me in all its mawkishglaring efflorescence this lasttraumatic Monday afternoonwhen I wTas assaulted (albeit sub¬tly, ever so subtly) by the ulti¬mate insult of a palsy-walsy freecardboard of coffee via a nastylittle red Vendo-meter-button.Certainly our dear departed C-shop w'as a part of the Collegeatmosphere (ironically, for I hear that we are residential now). Itwas smallish, its customers wereoften cursed by its steamingstanding faculty and other cus¬tomers, chair-stealing was ram¬pant, and its noon-hour densitieswould have astounded even Mao-tse-tung; but the conversation wasgood and the tea was good andsoup and grilled cheese was good(usually) for such as us; it suitedour moods, whatever they were,for the rapport was there. Andnow we have fewer good bad-hunting-pictures and fewer leath¬er booths and more glare, moreglare (red leather is nicer thanpretty machines, Vendo-meter)and I was leaving the campusanyway this year. Degustibus re¬rum bookstore snack-bar defin¬itely disputandum est.One could find generic similari¬ties in this mutation to other ex¬amples of our changing Univer¬sity, if one were bold and readyto expose himself to the keen ex¬coriation of Aristotelian dissec¬tion (eatabolis is the word thiscentury, boys and girls). Onemight even recall that time lastyear when a high Bursarial dig¬ nitary pontificated that no, youcan’t have a week’s extension onyour tuition because your VAcheck is delayed, go see the LoanOffice for help sir and no, hedidn’t see any similarity betweenthis and two years ago when thiscourtly benevolence was extend¬ed and anyway, "We’re runninga Business here and we’ve got tobe Businessmen! (old-chap-we-know-it’s-rough-but . . . ahh, thesubtle partnership implied in thenecessary growing evil, the safewe’re-all-brothers plurality). Orperhaps the high College priestwho opined that the Comp reallydidn’t have to be taken over be¬cause "You got a C and that’squite satisfactory and anyway,you can’t stand in the way ofProgress’’ even if it tramples you;alas poor Hutchins, I knew himwell.But all we have to do is to closeour eyes and believe that we havea shop "SERVING ALMOSTEVERY KIND OF FOOD” whichis "AN EXTRA BENEFICIALSERVICE TO THE STUDENTS”by golly, and “THAT’S WHY THE CHANGES ARE BEING MADE"(ahah, the insults get a little lesssubtle). Things will be all rightbecause Vendo-meter says stu¬dents seem "TO ADJUST THEM¬SELVES TO THIS KIND OFEATING" (reassurance or diag¬nosis?) Like all the other changes,just believe in them as part ofThe Master Plan for Your OwnGood.So now I can’t have my pleas¬ant noisy lunches or my tea andI’ll have to drink coffee out ofsoggy paper cups and I’ll probablybe shunted to Soc tea to talkabout Cuba or to that vast cavernnext door which is fine for dinner,but did you ever try to got to¬ gether around a fifteen foot ta¬ble?Well, soon I'm off for graduateschool and a better coffee-shop,leaving behind the fading imageof a garrulous sort of Vet whowrangled a degree even though^my gracious he m u s t a spentmosta his time at the C-shop;tain’t so, kiddies, a ceramic cupof talking-coffee from, to and withnon-metallic humans isn’t a wasteof time and if it were, then it’sfar, far better than other wastesaround our hallowed ground.

PatakiAnalysisStudents find voiceCalls letters on Seeger 6UnfairDear Sir,A couple of letters in theMaroon lately have taken potshots at Pete Seeger. May I saythat, frankly, the writers of themdon't know what they’re talkingabout? They obviously don’t carefor his singing and his politics.That is their own private busi¬ness. But, to write such snide, un¬fair statements about him isanother thing. I have no personalaxe to grind for him — some ofhis folk-singing I don’t care for,but he certainly does capture myattention in other songs, such as“Bells of Rhymney” and “If I Hada Golden Thread.” He, himself,has said that he doesn’t claim tobe a great “artist.” Regardless ofhis own talent, pleasantly freefrom slickness, he has contrib¬ uted much to the current revivalof interest in folk music, both lis¬tening and performing. While hispolitical views are more extremethan many of us would have, hespeaks for what he sincerely be¬lieves is right. His opinions arenot “deified” by his fans, as onewriter claims, “because of hispopularity as a folk singer.” Heis for the folk, concerned withpeace and brotherhood, regardlessof how many have been leadastray by his idealism (and spunkto go with it). He is certainly inintent a loyal American, but alsoa loyal citizen of the world, im¬practical as that may be at pre¬sent.As for the claim, in one letter,that he himself is a capitalist anddoesn’t need any financial help, in his present fight, from others(such as the U. of C. Folkloresociety, of which I am not a mem¬ber), this shows ignorance abouthow much money a down-to-earthfolk-singer (and instrumentalist)of Pete’s nature makes — as dif¬ferentiated from those commer¬cial pseudos such as the KingstonTrio and Harry Belafonte (enter¬tainers, but hardly “folk”). Ofcourse, he has income, but notat the expense of what was oncefolk music.It is also known that Mr. See¬ger gives many benefit perform¬ances, not pocketing any profitfor himself. Even from the moneyhe does make, there is a thingcalled expenses (traveling, etc.),and fighting the present case ashe has been doing for so long isan expense not to be taken lightly,legal fees being what they are(no offense toward lawyers in¬tended).A. F. by Ron DorfmanThe past two years haveseen the “silent generation’-’find its voice: students areat present the heart of t h emovements for civil rights, civilliberties, and peace, and the Uni¬versity of Chicago, traditionallya “beacon in the West,” is in theforefront of that activity.When reports of the first sit-in demonstrations hit the news¬stands, a revolution occurred inAmerican politics. Here was astudent movement that the pop¬ular press could not dismiss asfrivolous, insignificant, or mis¬guided; the sit-ins were (and are)serious, mature, and important,and they were imbued with a re¬ligious quality which made thempolitically impregnable.The sit-ins galvanized Americanstudents into the realization thatthey coukl — and should — playa more active role in the * life ofthe nation. Previously, there hadbeen much weeping and wailingin the intellectual and politicaljournals, and over the tables ofthe C-Shops of the nation, aboutthe plight of the individual whoopposed the policies of the “powerelite” but who, like everyone else,was powerless to influence the de¬cision-making process.The student non-violent move¬ment almost immediately led tothe adaptation of similar methods of active protest to the move¬ments for peace and civil liber¬ties. In May of 1960 the studentsof the San Francisco Bay Areacolleges and universities, support¬ed by their faculties and by laborand religious organizations, pick¬eted the San Francisco hearingsof the House Committee on un-American activities.When police -turned fire hoseson several hundred studentswhose attempts to gain admissionto the hearings were frustrated bythe issuance of special passes tothe DAR, American Legion, andother groups friendly to the Com¬mittee, the students sat down,locked their arms, and becameheroes to students across thecountry.The Committee apparently rec¬ognized the political significanceof this act, because it at once setvabout producing the film “Opera¬tion Abolition,” which is discussedin other articles on this page.Much the same thing happenedin the peace movement. Students,following the example of the sit-ins and the British Aldermastonmarchers, organized peacemarches and civil defense pro¬tests. A national organization(Student Peace Union) wasformed with headquarters inHyde Park and Phil Altbach. aUC student, as its national chair¬man.Editor-in-chiefKen Pierce The ‘good college’ is definedBusiness managerWilliam G.

Dear Sir;The basic purpose of any col¬lege is, in simplest terms, to pro¬vide an education that will pro¬duce students with the ability tothink, to analyze, and to arriveat independent judgments. To dothis, the college must, by meansof the best physical and intellec¬tual facilities available to it, pro¬vide the student with the oppor¬tunity of constructing his formaleducation in such a way that itwill serve as a foundation for hislife-long self-education.The critical nature of this in¬tellectual groundwork directly im¬plies a dual responsibility. Thecollege, in addition to its positiveeducational role, must not violatethe personal rights .of the student.The student’s individual thoughts,actions, and values must beacknowledged and accepted, evenif this includes getting drunk,growing beards, or making love—to live! The expanding and Tna-turing student is responsible tohis own actions and must acceptthe consequences of his individualjudgment.The college, by its implied orexpressed actions, must guaranteethis freedom. This is self-evident.The college cannot press precon¬ ceived solutions or answers uponthe student. It cannot indoctrin¬ate, it cannot force rationaliza¬tions. The college must conscious¬ly strive to be fair and flexible.This is the only goal it can have,and it is the most difficult one.The easier, short-range, pragmaticapproach of mechanically inject¬ing into society well-adjustedfunctional “products” is not onlya reflection of a public mentalityof the lowest sort, but this aca¬demic brittleness is also the firststage of rigor mortis.To the contrary of insuringpublic tranquility and conform¬ance to the indolence of the statusquo, the college must act as astimulus to the latent, inherentcapabilities of the individual. Thisprovocation very possibly shat¬ters myths, and especially ques¬tions contemporary optimistic ra¬tionalizations. Nothing, not evenpublic clamor for “normalcy,” canbegin to justify the position of acollege which tries to play godwith the lives of its students;however this very thing is beingdone at the University of Chicago.Because of the compulsory dor¬mitory requirements the studenthas no choice—he is forced to liveMaroon Staff MembersThe first staff meeting of the summer quarter will be heldon Monday, June 39 at 7 pm in the Maroon office. All staffmembers are urged to attend this meeting. All those interestedin joining the Maroon staff, either for the summer quarter oras permanent staff members, are invited to attend. in mass units with little privacy,high prices, and institutional food.There is speculation that compul¬sory class attendance is being con¬sidered. Even fraternities are in¬volved in the plot. A flagrant vio¬lation of personal dignity is re¬pressed and excused by a paternaland “understanding” administra¬tion.However, there arc some justi¬fications for the University’s de¬siring to change its public image.In the past it has been disclaimedfor its location in a dangerousneighborhood. The South SideArea of Chicago is known for itshigh crime rate. There have alsobeen allusions made to an intel¬lectually dangerous “atmosphere.”In 1949, the University itself waslabeled by an investigating com¬mittee as “a hotbed of reds andhomosexuals.” Hazy remnants ofthese derogatory associations stillexist in the public mind, but theyare rapidly declining.To combat this past reputa¬tion, “to make the University ofChicago a place where an Iowabanker will send his son, and notwhere every queer in the countrywill apply,” the administrationhas resorted to paternalism, andis violating the students’ personaland educational rights.The University is a private, se¬lective, and elite “community ofscholars” dedicated to intellectualstimulation and development, andthe mei’e fact of its acquiescingto public opinion and directingitself towards the “All-AmericanMyth” is ironic, if not tragic,Mike RivardJune 9, 1^61 CHICACO MAROON • 7Special alumni supplement 460-'61: A summary ofStudents arriving on thequadrangles at the start of the1960-61 academic year foundthe University not quite thesame as they had left it lastspring.

Mem¬bers of the Delta Sigma and Eso¬teric girls’ clubs and Delta Upsi-lon and Phi Sigma Delta fraterni¬ties all obligingly waded intoBotany pond for the benefit of aTV cameraman.Lack of sufficient space forcedthe adoption of a new residenceplan and the opening of a newbuilding. The use of Hyde Parkapartments as dormitories for un¬dergraduate students was an¬nounced by Assistant dean of stu¬dents James E. Newman.Originally the plan called forthe purchase of apartment dormsboth for men and for women, butdue to difficulties in negotiationswith local landlords, only a wom¬en’s apartment building will beused next year.I-F-C changes rushThe Inter-fraternity councilvoted to begin “rushing” prospec¬tive pledges during Autumn quar¬ter. However, the IFC and thedean of students did not reachany decision about this new plan.Present rushing rules state thatno first year student may be offi¬cially contacted by fraternitiesuntil Winter quarter.John T.

An all-campuspoll, conducted by the Maroon,indicated that students favoredSenator John F. Kennedy 2 to 1over Vice President Richard M.Nixon. However, the majority ofKennedy supporters chose AdlaiStevenson as the man they wouldmost like to see President.Also named as choices for thepresidency were: Robert Hutch¬ins, Walter Lippman, ChristianMackauer, Eleanor Roosevelt, andEric Sevareid.Fred Zimring, Research asso¬ciate in the department of psy¬chology, was appointed to replaceJerome Kerwin as dean of stu¬dents in the division of social sci¬ences.

The two Swedishprincesses, Birgitta and Desiree,both of whom teach kindergartenin their native Sweden, were espe- c i a 11 y interested in the Labschool.. A seven man faculty-adminis¬tration committee urged the con¬struction of a fine arts center oncampus. The building, whichwould cost over 3*4 million dol¬lars, would house the humanitiesdepartment as well as a theaterand a recording studio.Associate dean of the collegeWarner Wick, named as coordi¬nator of the fine arts project, saidthe center would be given consid¬eration. No one seemed partic¬ularly disturbed about the factthat the center might be construc¬ted where Lexington hall nowstands.Yet, another committee, com¬posed of representatives of stu¬dent organizations and the admin¬istration, was formed to discussthe needs of student activities.The committee announced that itwould spend the year investigat¬ing the facilities needed by stu¬dent organizations and would pre¬pare recommendations concerningpossible construction of a studentactivities building.Suggest FM stationIn late November, the comptrol¬ler announced that “the incomeand expenditures for the Univer¬sity were the largest in history.”The largest source of income forthe University was the federalgovernment; the largest expendi¬ture in the 117 million dollarbudget was for “instruction andresearch.”Alfb in late November, JohnP. Netherton, dean of students,announced that "some kind ofUniversity-operated FM radio sta¬tion is not an impossibility.” Thestaff of the campus radio station,WUCB, had previously asked forpermission to operate an FM sta¬tion.However, a University-operatedFM radio station did, in f a e t,prove to be an impossibility, atleast for this year, as no agree¬ment was reached about the roleof students in the proposed sta¬tion.The newly established residencerequirement came under attackin early December by the Assem¬bly of Student Government. Aresolution passed, by a vote of35-6, states “wholehearted supportof the ideal of a community ofscholars at the University of Chi¬cago,” but states that the Uni¬versity "will not be broughtnearer this goal through the re¬strictions imposed on the studentsby the new housing regulations.”Marine recruiter Herliert Hartwas greeted by a “spontaneous”demonstration when he arrivedon campus December 2. Some 400students greeted Hart with signsproclaiming “Strontium 90 is goodfor you, build strong bodies eightway;” “End the human race, letmissiles live;” “We demand a fi¬nal solution to the pacifist prob¬lem.”Said Captain Hart: ‘This is thelargest trowd we’ve had inmonths.”Beadle appointedWinter quarter, 1961, beganwith the announcement that No¬bel prize winning geneticistGeorge Wells Beadle had been ap¬pointed to succeed Lawrence'Kimpton as Chancellor of the Uni¬versity of Chicago. In announcingwhat he called "the best keptsecret since the atomic ftomb pro¬ject,” Glen A. Lloyed, chairmanof the Board of Trustees said,"Mr. Beadle was chosen in theenthusiastic conviction that he isa man who will continue andstrengthen the excellence of theUniversity.”One week after the announce¬ment of his appointment, Beadlewas named a trustee of UC, andofficially elected to his post bythe Boar d of Trustees. Thus ended newsa search which had been in pro¬gress since Kimpton’s resigna¬tion, announced in March, I960.The choice was made by a faculty-trustee selection committee afterconsideration of a list of some 375candidates, suggested by facultymembers and alumni.The Beadle appointment drewwide praise from UC facultymembers. Typical of commentswas that of Harry Kalven, Jr.,professor in the Law school, whosaid, "I think it’s a damn fineappointment. He’s a literate scien¬tist, which is the sort of man weshould get.”Book store criticizedDuring the same week in whichthe new chancellor was named,a feud erupted between StudentGovernment and the Universityof Chicago bookstore. SG had at¬tempted to set up a discount lvookordering service, hut several ofthe publishing houses which hadoriginally agreed to do businesswith the service changed theirminds after orders had been re¬ceived.Immediately before cancellingthe orders, the publishers had re¬ceived a letter from DempsterPassmore, manager of the UCBookstore. The letter said, in part,"This organization (the orderingservice) has no relationship withthe University of Chicago book¬store which is owned and oper¬ated by the University and withwhom you have done businessfor many years. Of course the*Cooperative’s customers will bothe Bookstore’s customers, andthe Cooperative will be selling tostudents at a discount while theBookstore continues to sell at pub¬lisher's list.”Leonard Friedman, then chair¬man of SG’s cooperatives depart¬ment, termed the letter “A subtleultimatum to publishers to stopdealing with the cooperative de¬partment or receive smaller or¬ders from the University’s store.This is a fine example of a large,established store attempting locrush a small competitor, the com¬petitor being lucky if it turns overone thirtieth of the business ofthe larger store.”Publication of the Passmore let¬ter led to a move to boycott thebookstore, which continued forsome four weeks. An ad hoc com¬mittee was formed, which pick¬eted the store for about ten days.Committee is formedIn addition, SG formed anotherad hoc committee, the Student-Faculty committee for a BetterBookstore (SFCBB), which or¬ganized a faculty petition to ex¬amine bookstore policies. Some175 faculty members signed thepetition, which was presented tothe Committee of the Couheil ofthe University Senate. No actionhas been announced by the Com¬mittee, although some work onthe problem is being handled byadministrative officers.Also in January, the Collegefaculty authorized a review of thecurriculum. Alan Simpson, deanof the College, announced thatthe nine man committee wouldreview the organization of generaleducation within the frameworkof a two year general educationrequirement. The appointment ofthis committee was said to be,"in accordance with the desirethat the reorganization of theCollege be kept under vigorousexamination.”Alumni of six of UC’s nine fra¬ternities reported that they need¬ed new housing facilities. Accord¬ing to dean of students John P-Netherton, separate units, hous¬ing some forty persons each, arecurrently being considered. Thelocation of a proposed “FraternityQuadrangle” has not as yet beenset. Netherton is also consideringconstruction of individual houseson a scattered basis.Policies produce protest1The first of what developed in¬to a lengthy movement protestingthe now residence requirementwas heard in January. KevinKrown. a first year student in theCollege, announced his intentionto bring a suit before the Student-Faculty-Administration court de¬signed to challenge the legality ofthe requirement.Student parties changeKrown based his case on theBeadle inauguration pro¬cession.second section of the Student Billof Bights, which guarantees:“The right of students to aclear and concise statement, be¬fore entering the University, or,in the case of the Divisions andprofessional schools, at registra¬tion, of their contractual rights,obligations, and responsibilitiespertaining to educational and ex¬tracurricular activities, and uni¬versity housing shall be main¬tainedLater in the year, Krown with¬drew from the case, being replaced by Dinah Soloman, anotherfirst year student. The case washeard by the Court during thespring quarter.Student Government underwenta drastic revision of traditionalparty lines early in winter quar¬ter, The Independent Studentleague (ISL) split on several pol¬icy issues, and the party was dis¬solved. At the same time, theStudent Representative party(SRP), long second to ISL in cam¬pus support, disbanded.From remnants of these twogroups, a new party, POUT, wasformed. In addition, the campussaw the formation and growth ofthe Practical Reform organization(PRO). The only party to survivewas IftP, which changed its namefrom the Independent Revolution¬ary party to the Independent Re¬form party earlier in the year.U< • received a grant of $5,400,-000 during winter quarter. Thepurpose of the grant, accordingto the Ford foundation throughwhich it was anounced, was tostrengthen and expand graduatetraining and research in non-Western and other internationalstudies.Newly elected president JohnF. Kennedy announced tlie ap¬pointment of UC law professorNicholas Katzenbach as assistantattorney general. A specialist ininternational law, Katzenbach hadserved as a member of the USdelegation to the United Nations, acting as a consultant In the lawof outer space.A raise in tuition, almost an an¬nual UC tradition, was announced.The increase will be in the formof a $14 quarterly student healthfee, and will go into effect at thebeginning of next autumn quar¬ter.A controversy concerning therole to be played by the StudentOrientation board developed ear¬ly in February. George L. Playe,dean of undergraduate students,announced that in the light of“fundamental mutual disagree¬ment over the position ofO-board,” he had informed theboard that the final responsibilityfor the orientation of. new stu¬dents was his own.The board, working with assist¬ant dean of undergraduate stu¬dents, Mary Alice Newman, hasin recent years become almostcompletely responsible for sched¬uling the events of Orientationweek. Playe stated that now heintends primarily to depend onstudents only for the implementa¬tion of a schedule established byhis office. This is the positionoriginally hold by the board atthe time of its establishment inthe 1930s.Dispute reaches facultyStudent members of the boardrejected Playe’s definition of theirrole, and voted to not continueworking with the dean’s office.The action came after the boardhad presented Playe with a listof “defining criteria” which statedtheir conception of the duties ofan orientation board.Commenting on the board’s de¬cision, Playe stated, “I am verysad about the board’s action. Wehad hoped the board would workwith us during the fall’s revisedO-Week. I still have every inten¬tion of inviting individual mem¬bers of the board to help us planand carry out next year’s orienta¬tion.”UC’s first annual Folk festivalwas heir* this year, under thesponsv a ip of the Folklore soci¬ety. The three night festival, fea¬turing performers from whatsociety president Mike Fleischertermed “as many representativefields of folk music as arc foundin North America,” was a com¬plete sellout.Dispute over the residence re¬quirement reached the faculty inMarch. After discussing the regu¬lation with dean of students JohnP. Netherton, the College facultyvoted almost unanimously to es¬tablish a committee to evaluateresidential policies.The motion forming the com¬mittee states: “That a Collegefaculty committee on residentialpolicies be appointed by the dean(of the College) to make recom¬mendations from time to time tothe dean and faculty of the Col¬lege; and to be in communica¬tion with the dean of studentsand representatives of studentopinion.”Plan urban renewalNamed to the committee bydean Alan Simpson were: DonaldMeiklejohn, professor of philos¬ophy in the College, who willserve as chairman, John Cawelti,assistant professor of humanities,Herbert Gochberg, assistant pro¬fessor of French, Ole Kleppa, as¬ sociate professor of chemistry,and Gilbert White, professor andchairman of the department ofgeography.Netherton, whose office is re¬sponsible for the administrationof the residence requirement, saidthat lie would give great weightto the recommendations of thecommittee. Said Netherton, “Obvi¬ously the policy views on residen¬tial matters held and expressedby the College faculty and itscommittee must be given a greatdeal of weight indeed by studentpersonnel officers responsible forthe promulgation of specific poli¬cies, even though in the structureof the University of Chicago, thisis an all-University post ratherthan an exclusively college one.”UC plans for redevelopment inWoodlawn, the area immediatelysouth of the Midway and lyingbetween Cottage Grove and StonyIsland avenues fell under sharpattack from local neighborhoodorganizations.

Terming thecharges “grossly irresponsible,"Alinsky stated, “Whenever thereis an issue of social change, thereis always a certain number ofpeople that react in an unstable,extreme way.”Spring quarter saw the forma¬tion of a student committee todiscuss administration of the resi¬dence requirement with DeanNetherton.

Kimp-ton’s successor as chancellorof UC ended on Thursday,January 12, 1961, when Glen A.Lloyd, chairman of the Board ofTrustees, announced the selectionof George Wells Beadle.The 57-year old Nobel prize win¬ning geneticist was chosen froma 375-candidate list that was as¬sembled by a faculty-trustee com¬mittee in the 10 months sinceKimpton announced his resigna¬tion.Beadle was chairman of the de¬partment of biology at the Cali¬fornia Institute of Technology(Caltech) in Pasadena before hecame to UC.On May 4, he officially be¬came the seventh chief executiveofficer in UC’s 69-year history. Hewas inaugurated in RockefellerMemorial chapel before some1000 people. field of specialty,** said Beadle,defining a liberal education.Any curricular system, how¬ever, might be successful withable, enthusiastic teachers andinterested students of high intelli¬gence, he stated.“The University of Chicago Col¬lege has come closer to a satis¬factory solution than has that ofany other major university inthe country.”Beadle characterized the manyprofessors who are turning fromteaching to research as “intellect¬ual eunuchs” since they “have nointellectual offspring.”“The College,” he said, “seeksas faculty members mature, com¬petent scholars with a high de¬gree of skill in teaching and areal desire to spend a substantialfraction of their time doing so.“The University of Chicago Col¬lege plan provides for teachingby faculty members who find it kind closes the mind . . .

Beadle’smethod of instruction is “for theIndividual to participate in theprocess — to experience the in¬comparable thrill of original dis¬covery, even if this be in a mod¬est way only.”Beadle raised several questionsabout the College: who shouldattend? How do liberal and gen¬eral education differ? And whoshould teach in the College?Only “those Individuals withthe highest degree of creativeability and the greatest promisefor leadership” would study atBeadle’s ideal university.“If, in addition to being gen¬eral, an education is to be liberalIn the sense of contributing tothe fulfillment of the individual,It must provide depth instead ofbreadth . . . gradually blendingInto earnest concentration on a a rewarding experience, not anonerous duty.”Wants to fill in gapAdmitting that a gap exists be¬tween the sciences and humanities, Beadle hopes for acknowl¬edgment “that there is reallyonly one culture . . . and thatscience is an integral and insep¬arable part of it.”He foresees “a new generationof humanists and social scientistswho will begin with a deep un¬derstanding and appreciation ofscience.“When this happens and whenall scientists start with a trulyliberal education, the gap will be¬come a matter of history. I amoptimistic that time is not faroff.”Beadle considers the sciencesand humanities complementary,overlapping and intermingling inthe behavioral sciences. “Scienceand the humanities are bound to¬gether inseparably. We are go¬ing to have a decent balance onthis campus,” he has said,Beadle would like to close thegap between them by teachingscientists and humanists generalprinciples, rather than detailedfacts, about each others’ fields.A portion of Beadle’s speeelidealt with his views on academicfreedom. Beadle objects to thedisclaimer affidavit in the Na¬tional Defense Education act(NDEA) because he believes dis¬claimers of belief can have acrippling effect on our education-ay system.“The really basic objection Isthat a disclaimer of belief of any signing priorities for use of avail¬able funds. Beadle spoke of thepossibility of curtailing the quan¬tity to improve the quality ofUC’s varied activities.He praised the University’shelping the Chicago communityto develop. Recently, Beadle wasappointed a director of the South¬east Chicago commission. Thisorganization, founded and originally headed by Kimpton, is responsible for a major part of theHyde Park-Kcnwood renewal pro¬gram.Beadle has many degreesBeadle, whose first official actas Chancellor was the awardingof 7 honorary UC degrees, willreceive an honorary degree thismonth from Harvard.He already holds iionorary doc¬tor of science degrees from Yale,the University o f Nebraska,Northwestern, Rutgers, Kenyon,Wesleyan, Birmingham ( E n g •land), and Oxford.He has BS and MS degreeswhich he received at Nebraskain 1926 and 1927 respectively. In1931, he leceiv^d his PhD fromCornell university.Beadle had intended to workin agriculture until his graduateassistantship at the New Yorkstate college of agriculture atCornell, where he found the gene¬tics and cytology of corn so in¬teresting that he decided to makegenetics his field.From 1931-41 he worked withthe genetics of fruit flies. In 1932he was a national research fellowin biology at Caltech. From 1932-5, he was an institute fellow there, and in 1935-6, an instructor of bi¬ology at Caltech.Beadle was an assistant profes¬sor of genetics at Harvard uni¬versity in 1936-7, and professorof biology at Stanford from 1937until 1946.Beadle joins PaulingFrom 1946 until his appoint¬ment as UC Chancellor, Beadlewas a professor and chairman inthe division of biology at Caltech,where he worked closely withchemist Linus Pauling, who hadheaded Caltech’s department ofchemistry since 1936.Beadle’s predecessor at Caltech,Thomas Morgan, had been work¬ing to integrate biology and chem¬istry. Pauling became interestedin applying his field to biologicalproblems, while Beadle was ex¬perimenting with chemicaltheories to explain some aspectsof genetics.Beadle and Pauling workedjointly for several years on thechemistry of genes. They outlinea 15-year program for the studyof basic problems of biology andmedicine. Caltech’s biology andchemistry departments grewrapidly under the leadership ofthese two men.Wins Nobel PriseIn 1958, Beadle and a formerUC student, Edward LawrieTatum, who is now with theRockefeller institute, won theNobel prize for research medi¬cine. They shared their prize withJoshua Lederberg, who was thenat the University of Wisconsin,and who is now at Stanford.Beadle and Tatum worked withthe chemistry of genes, seekingto discover their structure andmanner of functioning. Loder-borg, taking his cue from theirfindings, won recognition for hisfindings in bacterial genetics.Working with a pink breadmold, the Neuropera crossa,Beadle and Tatum, did researchon structures within each cell thatcontrol its life and behavior andultimately determine the develop¬ment of the whole organism.By studying the chemistry ofthe bread mold, Beadle and Tatumdiscovered the first intimationsof the manner in which genescontrol enzymes and enzymescontrol the basic chemistry oflife itself.This was the first definite proofthat genes control growth, andwas important in the study of cellmetabolism and cancer, as it shedlight on normal growth processeswhich must be understood beforeabnormal growth processes canbe interpreted.According to Beadle, man con¬trols his own future. He is “po¬tentially capable of “culturalself-direction.” It has been ob¬vious for a long time that he canset his own cultural objectives.It has recently become obviousthat lie can also exercise a com¬parable degree of control overhis biological evolution. Beadle’sdiscoveries in the field of gene-til's have contributed to this newsituation.Beadle has received manyhonors for his work. In 1958, inaddition to the Nobel prize, hewas awarded the Albert EinsteinCommemorative award.In 1953, he received the EmilChristian Hansen priZfe of Den¬mark and in 1950, the Laskeraward of the American PublicHealth association.In 1959, he became chairman ofthe American Cancer SocietyScientific Advisory council andchairman of the National Acade¬my of Science Committee onGenetic Effects of Atomic Radi¬ation.Beadle was born in Wahoo,Nebraska on October 22, 1903. Heattended high school in Wahooand then went on to the Universi¬ty of Nebraska and to Cornell.He married Muriel McClure in1953. Each has a son by a pre¬vious marriage. Beadle’s sbn,David, 29, lives in the Hague, theNetherlands. Mrs. Beadle’s son,Redmond, 17, will graduate fromPasadena high school this month.Mrs. Beadle, born in California,was raised in Chicago. After grad¬uating from Pomona college in California, she returned to Chi¬cago and became an advertisingcopywriter for Carson Pirie Scott& Company.From 1948-54 she worked forthe Los Angeles Mirror, first asa fashion writer and then as itswomen’s editor. She has writtenfor national magazines and herfirst book, The Ruins Are Inhabi¬ted, has just been published byDoubleday.Chancellor and Mrs. Beadlehave quickly become a part ofthe University community. Theyhave rapidly made the acquaint¬ance of innumerable students andfaculty members.Beadle’s first contact hero withstudents was in a special “MyLife and Yours” program held inMandel hall during the winterquarter. He addressed some 300students from the point of viewof a biologist, discussing UC verylittle as he was not then familiarwith its organization.(My Life and Yours is a seriesof informal discussions initiatedby Alan Simpson, dean of theCollege, at which students aregiven the opportunity to listen toand talk with distinguished rep¬resentatives of various fields.)Beadle has dined with studentgroups, including the residents ofC-Group dormitory, New Wom¬en’s dormitory, and the membersof the Inter-fraternity council.Complying with a promise hemade to some 750 students at ananti-required residence demon¬stration a few weeks ago, Beadlehas recently looked into the resi¬dence requirement. He concludedthat there was no good reasonto change the rule, and referredstudents to a justification of therule issued by John P. Netherton,dean of students.Beadle, on the issue of whetherto return football to UC, said, “Ihave nothing against football. Ifthe University of Chicago wantsto join the little conference inwhich Caltech plays, I see no rea¬son .why it shouldn’t ... butCaltech never wins any games.”Beadle has been working longhours to acquaint himself withthe University. His secretary re¬ports that he comes to his officeon the fifth floor of the admin¬istration building long before shedoes in the morning.The attitude of many towardsUC’s new chancellor is summedup in Glen Lloyd’s statement ofwhy Beadle was chosen:“George Wells Beadle waschosen chancellor in the enthusi¬astic conviction that he is a manwho will continue and strengthenthe excellence of the Universityof Chicago."He has achieved a distin¬guished position in the world ofscience and intellectual life andcommands an international repu¬tation and recognition.“He has wide experience in theacademic life of the country —-at Harvard, Stanford, and theCalifornia Institute of Technology—and has substantial experiencein educational problems and ad¬ministration.“No great university exists to¬day in the isolation of scholar¬ship and education, and in thistime, when there is an increasinginterest of government in educa¬tion, Beadle’s participation in theCommittee on National Goals andthe President’s Science AdvisoryCommittee indicates his abilityto give direction to the use of theUniversity’s resources for thebenefit of the entire nation.“The committees which recom¬mended Mr. Beadle were im¬pressed by his personal qualitiesof modesty, integrity, analyticalability, decisive and direct re¬sponses and action, and thebreadth of his scholarly under¬standing.“We are especially attracted byhis convictions as to the interre¬lationships of knowledge and thenecessity of relating and focusingall areas of scholarship for theeffective resolution of the prob¬lems of the modern world.“We are confident that Beadlewill give the University a periodof lively, effective, and productiveleadership.”10 • CHICACO MAROON • June 9, 1961Hu'chins(Editor** r )te—In the follow¬ing speech, ohert Hutchins de¬fines law «r• ’ the federal consti¬tution as ed: itional instruments.Hutchins, w ' resigned as Chan-cellar of the University in 1950,is president f the Fund for theKe public’s C iter for the studyof democra ? institutions.

When NewYork City began its rate caseagainst the Edison Company, thatcorporation’s expenditures for ap¬praising, accounting, and legalfees were over $4,000,000. NewYork Telephone’s, in a similarcase were over $5,000,000. And in1932 it appeared that the valua¬tion of the American railroads,which had been going on foreighteen years, had cost $178,000,-000.No sooner had Justice Blackgot on the Court than he attackedthe rule of Smyth v. Ames. Per¬haps little more could have beenexjiected of a man who as a sena¬tor had announced that stare de¬cisis, adherence to precedent, didnot apply to the Constitution. Wetook some temporary comfort inthe fact that his attack was adissent. But such was the pertin¬acity and persuasiveness of ourguest of honor that by 1944 hehad brought the majority aroundto his opinion, and Smyth v. Ameswas over-ruled. Thus at one strokeJustice Black hit the utilities, andthe appraising, accounting, engi¬neering, and legal professions atremendous blow in the pocket-lK»ok — and repealed everythingmy students ever knew.Most of roy colleagues of thosedays will tell you the same story.What Justice Black did to me andmy students he did to them andtheir students. He assailed therule, unquestioned since 1842, onthe interpretation of state law bythe Federal courts, and got itoverturned in 1938. He inveigledthe Court into upsetting an al¬most equally ancient tradition byholding that insurance was com¬merce. He seemed to suggest inMarsh v. Alabama, decided in1945, that corporations, under cer¬tain circumstances, might be sub¬ject, like governments, to the pro¬hibitions of the Bill of Rights.In the Lovett case he renovatedan almost forgotten piece of fur¬niture, the bill of attainder, andturned it into a weapon withwhich he repulsed a rapaciousma jority in Congress.Nor is this all. If we explorethe Black country, the world ofJustice Black’s dissenting opin¬ions, we see that if we lived therewe should be living in a differentatmosphere. The protections ac¬corded the accused in criminalcases would be extended. Alienswould be treated almost as wellas citizens. : "World's needs are intellectual"The protection of the FifthAmendment would be broadened.It would be regarded as guaran¬teeing the right to be silent; thewaiver of the privilege would bemore narrowly interpreted; andno governmental penalty of anykind could be inflicted on a wit¬ness availing himself of itThe immemorial rule permit¬ting the trial of criminal con¬tempts without a jury would beabolished. So would blue-ribbonjuries. The rights of labor unionsto picket peacefully and to engagein political activity would bewidened. No test oaths of any sortRober^M. Hutchinswould be permitted. Censorship,obscenity legislation, and grouplibel would be unconstitutional.A corporation would not be a per¬son within the meaning of theFourteenth Amendment, con¬trary to the rule ever since Ros-coe Conkling, by carefully edit¬ing history, convinced the Courtmany years ago. The Federal gov¬ernment would be held to havecompletely pre-empted the fieldof repressing subversion. TheHouse Un-American ActivitiesCommittee would be regarded asan un-American activity. Thewhole of the Bill of Rights wouldoperate against the States. Thedoctrine that the necessities ofthe community must be balancedagainst the rights of the citizen,so that the citizen usually loses,would go out the window. Neithersubway conductors nor applicantsfor admission to the bar wouldbe declared unreliable becausethey refused to answer questionsabout membership in the Commu¬nist Party."Not to be trifled with"When we recall that all thegreat movements in constitutionallaw in the last seventy-five yearshave been made by dissentingopinions, we recognize that suchopinions are not to be trifled with.We ought to make up our mindswhether we like the Black coun¬try. We may find ourselves livingin it.I like it. But the question iswhy. I can’t say I like it becauseI like it. If I did, all anybody elsewould have to say would be thathe didn’t like it.I can’t say I like it because Iwas brought up that way. Toomany people were brought upanother way.I can’t say I like it because itreflects the consensus in theUnited States. It probably doesnot.I can’t say I like it because Ithink it would work well. ThoughI have no doubt that what is nottrue will somehow fail to work,the crucial word is “somehow,”which includes “sometime.” Lifeis so complicated, and so short,that I am not sure that I wouldknow whether or not somethingwas working. And what is thestandard of working well, andwhere do I get it?I can’t say I like the BlackCountry because an historical in¬vestigation of what the FoundingFathers meant convinces me thatthey intended us to live there.Such investigations are likely tobe as fruitless as those the Court refers to in the desegregation de¬cision, or those through which theFund for the Republic tried to de¬termine the historical origins ofthe religion clauses of the FirstAmendment. We certainly are notto take the meaning of the Fa¬thers at the time they wrote asbinding on us today. Only ChiefJustice Taney ever did that. Ofcourse in the Dred Scott case hemisrepresented the Founders. Buteven if he had told the truth hewould not have been using a goodmethod of constitutional interpre¬tation.Wards need interpretationI can’t say I like the Blackcountry because the precise wordsof the Constitution compel me to.The plain language of constitu¬tions, statutes, and precedents re¬quires interpretation. The precisewords of the religion clauses ofthe First Amendment are as pre¬cise as any other words of theConstitution. The phrase “separa¬tion of Church and State” doesnot appear in that document.Still less is there any talk here¬in of a high and impregnable wallof separation. Yet these phrasesare the commonplaces of judicialdiscussion of the freedom andestablishment of religion. The pre¬cise words and plain language ofthe religion clauses, though veryprecise and exceedingly plain,were not sufficiently so to pro¬duce a line of decision from theEverson ease, through the McCol¬lum case, to the Zorach case thatwas altogether clear to the non¬judicial mind. These words andlanguage have not always seemedto be precise and plain even tothe judicial mind, as the praiseworthy changes of that mind inthe flag-salute cases show.In 1934, Chief Justice Hughessaid, delivering the opinion of theCourt, “The vast body of lawwhich has been developed wasunknown to the fathers, but it isbelieved to liave preserved theessential content and the spiritof the Constitution. . . . This de¬velopment is a growth from theseeds which the fathers planted.”The Founding Fathers meant usto learn. They meant us to learnliow to form a more perfect union,to establish justice, to insure do¬mestic tranquility, to provide forthe common defense, to promotethe general welfare, and to se¬cure the blessings of liberty toourselves and to our posterity.They founded a political commu¬nity; a community learning to¬gether to discover and achieve thecommon good, the elements ofwhich they set forth, but did notelucidate, in the Preamble. Thereliance on us to continue learn¬ing is evident in every line of theConstitution and in the brevityof the whole.A charter of learningThe Constitution is to be inter¬preted, therefore, as a charter oflearning. We are to learn how todevelop the seeds the Fathersplanted under the conditions ofour own time. This political bot¬any means that nothing we havelearned and no process of learn¬ing could be unconstitutional.What would be unconstitutionalwould be limitations or inhibitionson learning. I like the Blackcountry because this is the essen¬tial content and spirit of its con¬stitution.Learning is a rational process.Law is an ordinance of reason,directed to the common good. Theprocess of deciding to make ornot to make a law, or the process’of reaching a judicial conclusion,is to be criticized in terms of itsconformity not to local or popularbut to universal standards of rea¬sonableness. If the Constitutionis to teach us, and we are to learnunder its instructions, the dia¬logue that goes on about its mean¬ing must be about what is rea¬sonable and unreasonable, rightand wrong, just and unjust. Thequestion is not what interests areat stake, not what are the moresof the community, not who hasthe power or who is the dominantgroup, but what is reasonable,right, and justCertainly conformity to the pre¬cise words of the laws and Con¬stitution is not enough. It is wellto remember that Hitler was called Adolf Legalite. Everythinghe did, like everything that is be¬ing done in South Africa, wasstrictly according to law. Criticsof President Eisenhower were cor¬rect in saying that his defenseof the desegregation decision wasineffectual. He should have saidnot merriy that the decision wasthe law of the land, but also thatit was based on reason, right, andjustice.Obstructions to politicallearningSince, as John Dewey remarked,we have a government of lawyers,and not of men, lawyers shouldunderstand that there is or oughtto be a normative jurisprudencewhich prescribes something morethan correct procedure. The la¬mentable state of legal education,admirably exemplified by the wayI used to teach public utility law,is one of the principal obstaclesto our learning through the poli¬tical community.There are others. Our situationhas changed too fast for our ideas.Our ideology, by which I meanthat set of ideas which has hard¬ened into a linear series of slo¬gans, one of which leads into theother without the intervention ofthought, is far behind the factsof life. Our institutions, operatedin terms of that ideology, have acharacter that seems sometimesprimitive, sometimes unreal,sometimes fantastic, when wethink of the obligations and op¬portunities of our country in thecontemporary world.We know that tremendouschanges are going on, and thatstill greater are impending. Of thetwo pillars of our society, prop¬erty and work, the first has nowbeen transformed; it has changedfrom visible goods into a seriesof claims; and the second is cer¬tain to disappear. We are goingto have to live in a world withoutwork, a world without want, aworld without disease, and, if weare to live at all, in a world with¬out war. " .With the Gross National Prod¬uct hovering around an all-timehigh, one-third of the productivecapacity of our industries lies idle.What are we going to do withour goods? What are we going todo with ourselves? Wre now haveto learn more, and learn it faster,than any other people in history.The time to revive and recon¬struct the political community isat hand.Innovation or extinctionIt seems likely that this agewill be one either of innovationor of extinction. Without innova¬tion the human race may not beextinguished, though the techni¬cal means of achieving this resultare now available. What will beextinguished, in the absence ofinnovation, is the free society, thepolitical community. Only if wecan tear ourselves loose from ourprejudices, from our ideology,from slogans, only if we can takea fresh look at the world andexercise the same kind of intelli¬gence, character, and inventive¬ness that the Founding Fathersshowed can we hope to revive,reconstruct, and preserve the poli¬tical community.Take four successive days outof the last ten in the work of theCenter for the Study of Demo¬cratic Institutions. On the firstour staff economist demonstratedthat the market was not workingand could not work. He then dem¬onstrated with equal clarity thateconomic planning, the only visi¬ble alternative to the -ffoarket, wasnot working either. He said itwould be necessary to developnew economic ideas and new eco¬nomic institutions to meet theproblems of a totally new world.On the second day a Canadianexpert reporting on experiencewith commercial and noncom¬mercial broadcasting in Canadaand England and his observationselsewhere declared that no formof public, semi-public, or quasi¬public control of broadcasting hadbeen able to resist the advertisingagencies anywhere and that ifthey were to be resisted, whichhe thought indispensable to thehealth, morality, and sanity of theworld, new ideas would have to appear and new methods be in¬vented.On the third day a professorfrom the Australian National Uni¬versity, beginning with a convic¬tion that the United Kingdomwould join the European Com¬mon Market, and going mi totrace the effect of this action onthe British Commonwealth, cameto the conclusion that we wererapidly moving into some formof world political organization,and speculated that if such anorganization was to be in anysense free and democratic, newpolitical forms would have to bedeveloped.' Something is going toreplace the nation states. Butwhat?On the fourth day a studentof the American character fromBerkeley recalled de Tocqueville’sremark that the individual is adefaulted citizen, that democracyproduces individualism, and thatindividualism first saps the vir¬tues of public life and ends inpure selfishness. DeTocquevillesaid that democracy, by way ofindividualism, throws every man“back forever upon himself aloneand threatens in the end to con¬fine him entirely within the soli¬tude of his own heart.”Learn to seek common goodThe citizens of the UnitedStates, de Tocqueville thought,would escape this fate becauseour Constitution required us tolearn together to seek the com¬mon good. We would be forced,he said, by the necessity of co¬operating in the management ofour free institutions, and by ourdesire to exercise our politicalrights, into the habit of attendingto the interests of the public.The student of the Americancharacter from Berkeley pointedout that de Tocqueville’s expec¬tations had not been fulfilled, thatthe people of the United Statesare in fact defaulted citizens, withan indifference and even a hos¬tility to government, politics, andlaw that would have astoundedde Tocqueville—and the FoundingFathers. Instead of being a citi¬zen, the American individual is aconsumer, an object of propa¬ganda, and a statistical unit.The conclusion of the professorfrom Berkeley was that the poli¬tical community had beenwrecked on the rocks of our ideoLogy, by such slogans as free en¬terprise and that government isbest which governs least, and wasnow extinct. In view of the con¬dition of our education, our massmedia, and our political parties^he believed that in the absenceof some massive new effort toreconstruct our attitudes and ourinstitutions the outlook for democ¬racy, for the free society, and forthe political community was hope¬less.All the studies that the Centerhas been carrying on come outat the same place. We are enter¬ing a totally new world, and weare not very well prepared forit. The new world is describedby the great French historian andphilosopher, Etienne Gilson, asfollows: “The throes of the con¬temporary world are those of abirth. And what is being born withsuch great pain is a universalhuman society. . , . What char¬acterizes the events we witness,what distinguishes them from allpreceding events back to the ori¬gin of history is . . their globalcharacter, or to say it perhapsmore exactly, threir planetarycharacter.“The unity of the planet isalready accomplished. For rea¬sons economic, industrial, andtechnical, reasons ail linked to thepractical applications of science,such a solidarity is establishedamong the peoples of the earththat their vicissitudes are inte¬grated in a universal history ofwhich they are particular mo¬ments. . . . These peoples are infact parts of a Humanity . , ,something of which they mustnow become conscious, in orderto will it instead of being sub¬ject to it, in order to think itwith a view to organizing it.”The demand c* this new world,like the demands of the politicalcommunity, are first of all intel-(Continued on page 12)June 9, 1961 • CHICAGO MAROON • 11IMPERFECT IN ORIGINALSports ReviewCagers season best in 32 yearsby Chuck Bernstein1960-61 was a fabulousyear for the UC basketballteam. The Maroons’ recordof 19-4 was their best in 52years and they advanced to thequarterfinals of the NCAA collegedivision tournament. To add frost¬ing to the cake, their ace player,Joel (Big Z) Zemans received all-American mention, the first Ma¬roon to do so since coach JoeStampf ripped apart the Big Ten20 years ago.Wtih their rugged defense —the nation’s second best — hold¬ing opponents to an average of48.6 points per game, UC rompedthrough the regular season, win¬ning 17 and losing 3. The Ma¬roons suffered an erratic start,dropping a pair of one point de¬risions in their first four games.But when January rolled around,they really rolled, embarking ona 13 game winning streak.Every opponent moved into theFieldhouse rated as “tough,” butBOOM, after meeting that Ma¬roon stone wall, they left look¬ing unimpressive and demoral¬ized. Chicago 88, Valparaiso 65.Chicago 79, Dubuque 51. Chicago60, Wayne 30. Chicago 72, Be¬loit 49. The cagers put togethera string of six victories by morethan 20 points.Veteran guard John Davey andZemans shouldered most of thedefensive load. Joe Stampf’s as¬tute scouting, however, is the pri¬mary reason for the Maroon’ssuccess. The brilliant mentor, whohas carved out a 61-21 record infour seasons and a 37-8 mark inthe last two, sees every opposingteam beforehand. Because of hisperception and the ability of hismen to adapt to changing situa¬tions and mesh as a team perfect¬ly, UC smashed many quintetswhose players actually have su¬perior individual skills.University of Detroit stoppedthe Maroons’ 13 game streak inthe Motor City Feb. 18. The Ma¬roons stepped out of their classto battle the Titans, one of thenation’s powerhouses which laterwent to the NIT tournament. Itwas the first time Chicagojumped into major college circlessince it dropped out of the BigTen in 1946.UC played careful and credibleball, trailing by only four pointsat halftime, but all-AmericanDave DeBusschere, the country’sleading rebounder, and his co¬horts turned on the power in thefinal stanza and raced to a 59-39victory. DeBusschere was held byZemans to 20 tallies but hegrabbed 20 rebounSs.Most of the members of the en¬tourage that made the trip to De¬ troit agreed that he was amongthe greatest college players theyhad ever seen. Gerry Torenturned in the finest performanceof his career, scoring 14 pointsand holding Charlie North to 8,but it wasn’t enough.Entering the NCAA regionaltournament at the Fieldhouse,the Maroons toppled MacMurrayin the first round and outclassedLincoln 55-42 in the finals. Play¬ing flawless ball, UC had thegame in control all the way. BigGene Ericksen, 6'7' sophomorecenter who snatched 36 reboundsin the two games, and JohnDavey made the all-tourney team,but it was Larry Liss W'ho sparkedUC to the triumph over Lincoln.The classy sophomore guardplayed the best game of his ca¬reer. He pumped in 18 points andheld the Tigers at bay with flashydribbling displays. In the quar¬terfinal round at Evansville, In¬diana, Southeast Mo. squelchedChicago’s title hopes- with a de¬vastating 67-41 win.Coach Stampf, has jackedup the schedule considerably. Theheadline game is with mightyBradley in Peoria. Tufts, Colo¬rado college, Valparaiso, WayneState, and Carleton are also fea¬tured on the card.Baseball teamfinishes 5-13. Coach Kyle Anderson of theUniversity of Chicago baseballsquad is looking ahead to nextyear following the close of the1961 season. In their last threecontests, the Maroons dropped adoubleheader to Chicago TeachersCollege by scorces of 10-1 and 3-0, and were defeated 20-3 by Con¬cordia College.The Chicago team finished witha 5-13 record for the regular sea¬son and a 0-5 mark for theirspring trip to the South. High¬lights of the year were a double-header win over Beloit Collegefeaturing shutouts in both games,and a win over Lake Forest Col¬lege, which had run up a 31-2margin over the 1960 sq’Uad.Prospects for next year areespecially bright due to the largenumber of freshmen playing var¬sity ball this season. Kent Woold¬ridge and Bill Peterman givepromise of developing into out¬standing pitchers. Both also hitwell and Wooldridge got theteam’s only home run of the year,popping out in against ConcordiaCollege. Other returning startingfreshmen are Dennis Dekeyrel,outfielder and catcher, and RichRadmer, infielder-Outfielder. MikeGessel, a second-year student andone of the solid hitters of thisyear’s team, will also be back in1962 along with A1 Devitt, a third- year man, who broke out forthree consecutive hits in the sea¬son’s finale against Concordia.Jon Nicholson, who showed somepromise as a pitcher in practice,will also be back next season.Swimmers have 2-8 recordThe UC swimmers managedonly a 2-8 record and a poorfourth in the Chicago Intercollegi¬ate championships because everyman was a freshman except PaulHoffer, captain, and leading tank¬man.Coach Bill Moyle’s only winswere consecutive triumphs overa good George Williams crew andBradley.Besides Hoffer, George Calef,Warren Gaskill, John McConell,and Marty Reisberg garneredmajor letters. Chuck Cavallo, Er¬rol Elshtain, Marty Gross, JimParry, and Jerry Holmquistearned Old English ’C’s.Soccer teom loses allStagg Field, once the home ofthe Champions of the West, thispast year housed a football team;European football (soccer) thatis, and the team hit rock bottom,losing to the best and worst thiscountry has to offer.Composed mostly of beginnersin the sport, the team lost allseven games. It gave Indiana itsonly win of the year and pro¬vided St. Louis U. with a steppingstone to its second straight NCAAtitle. The only men to letter wereco-captains Nemon Taylor andUmberto Neri.Wrestlers win 5, lose 4With a team made up of 11first year men and two veterans,freshman coach Ron Wangerin’swrestling crew turned in the bestrecord a Chicago team has hadin 13 years. Led by freshman co¬captains Cliff Cox (13 wins, 1 lossin the final round of his firsttournament) and Jim Baillie (10wins, 4 losses) and aided by as¬sistant coach A1 Gibbons the mat-men showed spirit which is rareindeed on the midway these days.The 5-4 record UC accumulatedwas highlighted by an 18-14 vic¬tory over Notre Dame, which gavethe Maroons a 2-3 record at thattime. The win gave the wrestlersthe spirit to go all the way totheir last meet with powerfulWestern Michigan before againmeeting defeat.Four men received major‘C’s’; Cox, Baillie, Fred Hoyt, andMike Eisenberg.Golfers lose 8, win 3Chicago’s golfers couldn't un¬wind this season, and were sunk with a disappointing 3-8 record,finishing fifth in the Great LakesTournament.Capt. Fred Paulsell had an offyear but managed to lead theMaroons with an average of 81per round. Other major letterwinners were: Bob Wess, 84.2;Larry Bowman, 84.5; Dave Sil¬ver 90.3; and Paul Waltz, 94.5.Gymnastics team wins 2The UC gymnastics teamturned in only a 2-8-1 record, butlike most of the other Maroonteams, everyone but one man willbe back next year and they showa lot of promise.Bob Kreidler’s top man is JoeKuypers, who totaled 168 pointscompeting in six events and wonhis third major ‘C’ in three years.A pleasant surprise was fresh¬man Pete Wilson, who worked allseven events and won 152 points.Fencers do wellUC’s fencers racked up theirbest record in 11 years and ElliotLilien, captain and star saber fin¬ished tenth in the NCAA cham¬pionships at Princeton, N. J. atthe end of the season. The Ma¬roons place 21st in the 35 teamfield.

They are demands thatwe think, and learn. We face themill-prepared. Our educational sys¬tem is not unfairly characterizedby. reference to the course inFamily Living in the high schoolof Lockport, New York. The lastunit of this course is called, "Howto be Liveable, Loveable, andDatable.” The education ,of adults,which might be the answer to thequestion, what shall we do withourselves? is in a deplorable state.Thirty million Americans, for ex¬ample, are without any libraryservice whatever.We have triumphantly invented,perfected, and distributed to thehumblest cottage throughout theland one of the greatest technicalmarvels in history, television, andhave used it for what? To bringConey Island into every home. Itis as though movable type hadbeen devoted exclusively sinceGutenberg’s time to the publica¬tion of comic books. "Wasteland”is too good a name for it.When it comes to Teamingthrough the political community,the object is to learn how to bea responsible citizen, enjoying lib¬erty under law. The freedom ofthe Individual must be protected,but in addition the citizen must grow in responsibility if our coun¬try is to become conscious of it¬self as a part of Humanity andto think Humanity in order to or¬ganize it. Individual freedom andliberty under law are not incom¬patible, and they are both indis¬pensable.Law is a great teacher. It doesnot represent that minimum ofmorality necessary to hold thecommunity together. It standsrather for such moral truth asthe community has discoveredthat can and should be supportedby the authority of the commu¬nity.The conception of law as coer¬cion, or the command of the sov¬ereign, or the expression of pow¬er, or what the courts will doleads to the conclusion that everyeffort should be made to avoidlaw and that it is proper to doanything that no sovereign, pow¬er, or court can compel you toabstain from doing. Some suchmisconception must have been inthe mind of our government whenIt organized a foray into Cuba Inviolation of our own laws andin violation of international law.This fiasco suggests either thatour officials are hypocritical whenthey make obeisance to the Ruleof Law or that when they use thewords "Rule of Law” they do not know what they are talkingabout.Some of the principles of worldlaw are of great antiquity. Othersare gradually emerging. JusticeBlack referred to them in 1941 inthe submerged land cases andagain in 1946 when he said that"there has grown up in the fieldof international relations a bodyof customs defining with moreor less certainty the duties owingby all nations to alien residents.”The principles of world law arethe principles of thinking Human¬ity in order to organize it. Ofnecessity they must be principlesof universal validity. I think theywill be found to be the principlesof reason, right, and justice.We must revive and reconstructthe political community in theUnited States because the taskbefore us is nothing less than theorganizacion of the world poli¬tical community. The propositionto which the Declaration of In¬dependence and Abraham Lincolndedicated us now extends to thewhole world. Once more Ameri¬cans, on a new scale, have theduty of forming a more perfectunion, which will involve estab¬lishing justice, promoting thegeneral welfare, and securing theblessings of liberty to ourselvesand to all the peoples of the earth.Notionol News ReviewStudents active in politicsThe most important nation*a] event of the year, to stu¬dents as well as to everyoneelse, was the presidentialflection. But unlike most othersthe many students under twenty-one could influence the outcomeof the election only by workingfor the candidate of their choice.Students here and at other uni¬versities formed campaign clubsfor the candidates they preferred,canvassed precincts on behalf ofhim, and served as poll watchers,registration clerks and assistantsto many of the local and statecandidates.Local and national offices ofboth presidential candidatesagreed that there were manymore volunteer workers — mostof whom were students — in thiselection than in any other theycould recall. At times the studentvolunteers in the National Demo¬cratic Headquarters threatened toflow into the streets.Here at UC the students forKennedy club signed up morethan one thousand members dur¬ing the first two weeks of theschool term. The club gent manyof its members into the four pre¬cincts around the university todistribute campaign literature andlo explain voting registration pro¬cedures to residents.UCers lead paradeThe UC group was given thelead position in the Torchlightparade for then-Senator Kennedyon November 4. More than fourhundred Kennedy enthusiasts leftcampus in a drizzling rain, rodethe IC down to the Loop, andthen marched for two miles at thehead of the nationally televisedevent.The Youth for Nixon campusgroup spent much of its time inchecking nearby areas for fraudu¬lently registered voters. WillardAyres, a leader of the group, dis¬covered with the help of severaldozen other students nearly twohundred incorrectly registeredpersons in the Fourth and Fifthwards.On election day Ayres’ homebecame local headquarters for the“Minutemen,” the Republican pollwatching group. Several hundredstudents and others used itthroughout the day and met laterto watch the returns.Students at other campusesthroughout the nation did similarjobs in their own communities.'Mock conventions at Northwest¬ern, Swarthmore and many otherschools gave students a chance tohear major candidates from thedifferent parties and opportuni¬ties to express their own prefer¬ences in mock elections.The nation’s decision in favorof Kennedy had many immediaterepercussions on students. Ofthese, the one that succeededmost in capturing the imaginationof students was the Peace Corps.The ’National Student associa¬tion (NSA) and student groupsat the University of Michigan,Harvard and UC helped study theprogram and worked in many ofthe conference groups which ledto its final design and establish¬ment.NSA queries on CorpsNSA mailed two hundred de¬tailed questionnaires to studentsat every major university in aneffort to learn what they thoughtthe Peace Corps should do. Theirreplies were sent to the ColoradoResearch foundation, the studygroup selected by the Presidentto “determine the feasibility ofthe Peace Corps.”Students at Harvard and Prince¬ton sponsored a conference ofnationally known foreign aid ex¬perts to gather ideas about theCorps. UC students helped pay fora national student conference onthe corps at American universityin Washington last March.NSA, the major sponsor of theAmerican university conference,arranged for Senators HubertHumphrey and John ShermanCooper, and R. Sargent Shriver,Director of the Peace Corps agen¬cy, to explain to the students at the conference what they coulddo on, Peace Corps projects.The conferees then drafted pro¬posals for various aspects of thecorps, and Senator Humphreyasked them to submit draft legis¬lation for the establishment ofthe Corps to him.When President Kennedy estab¬lished the Peace Corps on March1 students rushed to apply for it.The Peace Corps agency in Wash¬ington reported receiving morethan two thousand letters andtelephone calls during the firstweek of its existence.First projects chosenAlready the first two projectsfor Peace Corps volunteers havebeen selected, and the persons togo on them will be chosen andsent by early fall. The first callsfor about thirty surveyors andhighway engineers to help Tan¬ganyika build secondary roads,and the second will supply agri¬cultural experts to South Ameri¬can countries.The victory of President Ken¬nedy in the election also broughtabout an immediate change inthe official attitude towards fed¬eral aid to educaiton. The newadministration has already de¬tailed its objectives in severalbills to Congress, most of whichwill be acted upon within the nextmonth.The Kennedy administrationproposals for the revision of theNational Defense Education actha.ve been of particular interestto leading educators throughoutthe country — UC’s new Chancel¬lor George Wells Beadle included.These proposals would elimi¬nate the controversial disclaimeraffidavit that students now apply¬ing for an NDEA loan of fellow¬ship are required to sign.Beadle and other leaders feelthat the affidavit is an unfair andimproper requirement to make ofstudent applicants. Beadle saidthat signing any affidavit stating"disbelief in anything” automa¬tically makes it impossible tostudy that subject. Free inquiryis imposible unless one “acceptsthe risk of belief,” Beadle said inhis inauguration speech.Another part of the Kennedyadministration’s NDEA proposalscalls for doubling the amount ofmoney available to each univer¬sity for loans to its students. Thiswould make, a maximum of near¬ly half a million dollars availableto the larger schools in the coun¬try.Schools select studentsThese schools then select stu¬dents who they believe qualifyfor financial assistance, and thestudents contract their loans di¬rectly with the federal govern¬ment.Supporters of the NDEA pointout that this system permits theuniversities to enjoy federal aidwithout surrendering any of theiracademic freedoms, and alsoleaves them free of the financialrisk that students will, for any ofseveral reasons, fail to repay theloans.Interest on the loans does notbegin to accrue until after a stu¬dent has completed full time edu¬cation, and then accrues at therate of less than three per centper year. If the student becomesa teacher, he can avoid repayingten per cent of the principle foreach of the first five years heteaches.In addition to the expandedloan program, the Kennedy pro¬posals call for the establishmentof a scholarship program and thedoubling of the graduate fellow¬ship program.When the NDEA was firstpassed by Congress in 1958 a pro¬posed scholarship program wasdefeated when conservatives ob¬jected to federal “giveaways” foreducation. The administrationhopes that Congress will approvea scholarship program this yearbecause, a spokesman said, “Con¬gress has become increasinglyaware of the great role of educa¬tion in the national defense, andmany Congressmen have decidedthat federal assistance is the best method of improving our educa¬tional system.”The NDEA proposals wouldalso expand the fund for researchinto special media of education,such as radio, television andmovies, and would make moremoney available to further thestudy of foreign languages.In addition to revising theNDEA, the new administrationhas introduced several other ma¬jor education acts.One of these bills providesloans to colleges and universitiesfor the construction of labora¬tories, dormitories and class¬rooms. This act also contains ascholarship program to providemoney to students who are finan¬cially needy.This bill, still in Congressionalcommittee, provides for up to$300,000,000 during the first yearto be loaned to colleges at low in¬terest rates.The Kennedy administration be¬lieves such funds would elimi¬nate a problem that has besetmany colleges and universitiesduring the past few years: in¬creasing enrollment beyond thephysical capacities of the institu¬tion.Colleges are crowdedSeveral colleges and universi¬ties have had to convert doubleand single dormitory rooms totriples and doubles, respectively,in order to accommodate largerentering classes. The administra¬tion feels such stress would bealleviated by long term loans toinstitutions for increasing physi¬cal capacity.Equally important is an admin¬istration bill to aid primary andsecondary public schools. TheSchool Assistance act of 1961, asthe Senate bill is titled, wouldallocate up to $2.3 billion to thestates over a period of three yearsfor school construction and/orteachers’ salaries, as the stateschoose.Money will be distributedamong the states according toneed. According to the bill, itssponsors hope “that the qualityof public education will be sub¬stantially improved in all statesand that inequalities within andbetween states will be substan¬tially reduced” by the bill’s pas¬sage.It is this bill that has causedthe most dissention among reli¬gious and political groups in thenation. Chief among the disputescenters around aiding parochialand private schools.Religious groups, distressedthat the bill does not include aidto parochial and private schools,have threatened opposition to thebill as a whole. However, the posi¬tion of these groups has alteredas President Kennedy has repeat¬edly stated that he feels thatgrants to parochial schools wouldbe unconstitutional.The Senate has approved theprimary and secondary aid bill,exclusive of aid to private andparochial schools. However,while Kennedy has voiced hisppinion that loans as well asgrants would be unconstitutional,he has agreed to support a sepa¬rate bill providing for loans toprivate and secular schools whichwould be a test case of the con¬stitutionality of such loans.Salary raises controversialAnother controversy was that ofaid to raise teachers’ salariesrather than aid only for construc¬tion. Conservatives in the Senateand House oppose aid to teachers’salaries because they feel thatsuch federal aid means federalcontrol over education.The third obstacle to passage ofthe administration bill was that ofaid to segregated communities.In addition to defeating StromThurmond’s attempt to guaran¬tee aid to segregated school areas,the Senate also defeated an ex¬plicit proposal to deny aid tocommunities failing to complywith a federal court order to de¬segregate schools.Observers feel that the Housewill present stiffer opposition,but they expect to see most of(Continued on page 14) C^ftiClmpsS/ y (Author of "/ Waa a T een-age Dwarf’, “The ManyLoves of Dobie Gillis”, etc.)withMocfihulmanBOOM!Today, foregoing levity, let us turn our keen young minds to theNo. 1 problem facing American colleges today: the populationexplosion. Only last week four people exploded in Cleveland,Ohio—one of them while carrying a plate of soup. In case you’rethinking such a thing couldn’t happen anywhere but in Cleve¬land, let me tell you there were also two other cases last week —a 45 year old man in Provo, Utah, and a 19 year old girl inBangor, Maine—and in addition there was a near-miss inKlamath Falls, Oregon—an eight year old boy who was savedonly by the quick thinking of his cat Walter who pushed thephone off the hook with his muzzle and dialled the departmentof weights and measures. (It would perhaps have made moresense for Walter to dial the fire department, but one can hardlyexpect a cat to summon a fire engine which is followed by aDalmatian, can one?)I bring up the population explosion not to alarm you, for Ifeel certain that science will ultimately solve the problem. Afterall, has not science in recent years brought us such marvels asthe transistor, the computer, the bevatron, and the Marlborofilter? Oh, what a saga of science was the discovery of theMarlboro filter! Oh, what a heart-rending epic of endless trialand error, of dedication and perseverance! And, in the end, whata triumph it was when the Marlboro scientists after years oftesting and discarding one filter material after another—iron,nickel, lead, tin, antimony, sponge cake—finally emerged, tiredbut happy, from their laboratory, carrying in their hands theperfect filter cigarette! Wrhat rejoicing there was that day!Indeed, what rejoicing there still is whenever we light a Marlboroand settle back and enjoy that full-flavored smoke which comesto us in soft pack or flip-top box at tobacco counters in allfifty states and Cleveland!Yes, science w ill ultimately solve the problems rising out of thepopulation explosion, but in the meantime the problems hangheavy over. America’s colleges. This year will bring history’sgreatest rush of high school graduates. Where will we find class¬rooms and teachers for this gigantic new' influx?Well sir, some say the answer is to adopt the trimester system.This system, now in use at many colleges, eliminates summervacations, has three semesters per annum instead of two, andcompresses a four year course into three years.This is good, but is it good enough? Even under the trimestersystem the student has occasional days off. Moreover his nightsare utterly wasted in sleeping. Is this the kind of all-out attackthat is indicated?I say no. I say desperate problems call for desperate reme¬dies. I say that partial measures will not solve this crisis. I saywe must do no less than go to school every single day of theyear. But that is not all. I say we must go to school 24 hoursof every day!The benefits of such a program are, of course, obvious. Firstof all, the classroom shortage will immediately disappear be- .cause all the dormitories can be converted into classrooms.Second, the teacher shortage will immediately disappear becauseall the night watchmen can be put to work teaching calculusand Middle English poetry. And finally, overcrowding willimmediately disappear because everyone will quit school.Any further questions? *C' 1961 Mas Sbulma®• • »Yes, one further question: Have you tried Marlboro’s newestpartner in pleasure—the unfiltered, king-size Philip MorrisCommander?

You’ll beglad you did.Studenfs fight nationally for civil rights(Continued from page 13)the administration proposals ap¬proved there as well.The victory of the Kennedy ad¬ministration also caused substan¬tial changes in other nationalfields which have long attractedstudents’ attention.The Department of Justice, un¬der Attorney General RobertKennedy, has begun to enterschool desegregation cases for thefirst time. The attorney generaldevised a method by which thedepartment could participate insuch cases as a “friend of thecourt,” rather than as an actuallitigant (which existing civilrights statutes do not give it spe¬cific power to do).Burke Marshall. Assistant At¬torney General for civil rights,told the Maroon that he believesthis method will make it possible for the Justice Department "toincrease greatly its activity in be¬half of school integration."Recently the department hasentered its first desegregationcase as a litigant in a test of thelegality of its assumption of thisrole. The case involves a countyin Virginia which voted to abolishpublic schools rather than inte¬grate them.The Department of Justice,with other litigants, is chargingthe county with providing for theeducation in private schools ofwhite students, but of making noprovision for the education ofNegroes.The charges, if upheld in court,will give the county the alterna¬tives of providing funds forNegroes' educations, or of ceas¬ing to supply any financial assist¬ance to white students. Marshall also told the Maroonof his actions in Fayette and Hay¬wood counties, Tennessee, whereNegro tenant farmers wereforced off their land and econom¬ically boycotted when they regis¬tered to vote in last fall’s election.Marshall said the Justice De¬partment requested the Court ofAppeals in Cincinnati to issue arestraining order against land¬lords to let the tenant farmersplant a crop before the growingseason is too far advanced topermit it to ripen before frostsbegin.Students here and at other uni¬versities did much to aid theevicted tenant farmers. Studentcommittees gathered food andclothing and collected money tosend to the farmers, who havebeen living in a tent camp formore than six months.withoutHfcCotL'world’s lightest suitOne final “exam” before summer starts: examine MR.COOL by Clipper Craft.

SACHS, INC14 Student newspapers, includingthe Maroon, sent reporters to thetwo counties to gather informa¬tion about the Negroes' condi¬tions. Such reports furnishedalmost the only publicity the situ¬ation was given, since most of thenation’s daily newspapers did notcarry stories on it.Students have also worked dur¬ing the last school year for inte¬gration in many other ways. Onthe local front, large numbers ofstudents at UC have helped cir¬culate petitions in favor of anOpen Occupancy statute for thecity of Chicago.The statute, introduced in CityCouncil by Alderman Leon Des-pres of the Fifth ward, wouldmake it illegal for a realtor torefuse to rent or sell property toanyone because of his race, reli¬gion or national origin.If a realtor were found guiltyof discriminating in this way, hecould be fined up to $200 dollarseach day he persisted in such dis¬crimination.Sit-ins organizedNationally, students organizedwidespread sit-in movements tointegrate lunch counters. Manywere jailed and all were at sometime jeered at or otherwiseabused.But the nation’s leading news¬papers and most powerful politi¬cians have recently stated theiradmiration for those participat¬ing in the sit ins. More and morelunch counters are being inte¬grated, making leaders of thesit in movement believe that itwill continue to be successful.Recently students have begun“freedom rides” through the deepSouth to integrate bus terminals.In Anniston, Birmingham andMobile, Alabama, students werebeaten, and at one point the busthey were riding in was burned.The situation became badenough to cause Attorney GeneralKennedy to send a total of fivehundred federal marshals to Ala¬bama, and Alabama’s GovernorJohn Patterson has recently de¬clared martial law and called outnational guardsmen.Students have taken up thefight for civil liberties in otherareas besides desegration.Many specific civil libertiescases have been followed atten¬tively by students here and atother universities. At UC, thecase attracting perhaps most at¬tention was that of George Anas-taplo, an instructor at the down¬town college.Anastaplo loses caseLate this spring, the SupremeCourt decided against interferingwith the decision of the IllinoisCommittee on character and fit¬ness to deny George Anastaplo,a graduate of UC’s college andlaw school, and a veteran of theKorean war. admission to the Illi¬nois Bar Association, becauseAnastaplo refused to answer ques¬tions relating to his religious be¬liefs and -his affiliation in variousorganizations.Anastaplo pleaded, and JusticeHugo Black wrote in his dissent¬ing opinion, that there was noevidence of a weak or undesirablecharacter on Anastaplo’s part,and that he was justified in notanswering some of the commit¬tee’s questions on the groundsthat such questions invaded hisright of privacy as guaranteed bythe first amendment.The majority opinion, writtenby Justice Harlan, stated that"even though the Committee al¬ready had before it substantialcharacter evidence altogether fa¬vorable to Anastaplo, there isnothing in the Constitution whichrequired the Committee to drawthe curtain upon its investigationat that point . . .“It is perfectly clear that theIllinois Bar Committee and Su¬preme Court regarded the peti¬tioner’s refusal to cooperate inthe Committee’s examination ofhim as the basic and only reasonfor a denial of certification."Black, in his dissent, stated thatno evidence supported the claimthat Anastaplo would have been admitted had he answered thequestions of the committee.Another major effort on thepart of students was the attemptto persuade the House of Repre¬sentatives to abolish the HouseCommittee on Un-American ac¬tivities (HUAC).Concurrent with the Presiden¬tial campaign last fall were theletter writing campaigns of anti-HUAC groups on many collegecampuses. The campaigns weredesigned to encourage constitu¬ents to write to congressmenabout their opposition to HUAC.This campaign was spurred byRepresentative James Roosevelt'spublic announcement early in thefall that he would offer a proposalto abolish HUAC.(Any commitee may be formedor abolished on the first day ofthe Congressional session.)The campaign was highlightedby the San Francisco demonstra¬tions and subsequent riots and byHU AC’s movie on the San Fran¬cisco demonstrations, OperationAbolition.In San Francisco, several thou¬sand students demonstrated inprotest of local hearings by thecommittee, and police were calledupon to disperse the crowd of stu¬dents and demonstrators. Consid-able violence was reported aboutthese demonstrations.HUAC charges studenfsHUAC, in its film. OperationAbolition, charged that the dem¬onstrators resorted to violenceand that they were “duped” byCommunist agitators into sup¬porting the demonstrations.Subsequently, the FBI issued areport entitled Communist Tar¬get: Youth.The demonstrators and anti-HUAC groups answered that noscenes of violence are shown inthe film. Robert Meisenbach, oneof the San Francisco demonstra¬tors, was recently cleared ofcharges of assault upon an officerof the law. in the protests. Thiswas regarded by anti HtJACgroups as acquittal of all studentsin the demonstration.In January, at the first sessionof Congress, the House voted412-6 in favor of raising the ap¬propriation of HUAC. This wasregarded as a setback by the anti-HUAC campaigners.Another major incident in themovement was Ihe decision of theSupreme Court to uphold the con¬tempt of Congress convictions ofCarl Braden and Frank Wilkin¬son. Both had been sentenced toone year in prison for refusing toanswer questions put to them byHUAC.Wilkinson and Braden werecalled before the committe whenit was investigating “Communistinfiltration in the South.” Eachheld that the questions were viola¬tions of their rights under thefirst amendment.Both men were traveling in thesouth, trying to promote integra¬tion and organize opposition toHUAC when they were called be¬fore the committee. Bradencharged, and Justice Black in hisdissent agreed, that the men werecalled partly because they hadbeen pressing for integration inthe South, and also because theyhad been urging the abolition ofthe committee.Seeger convictedThe conviction of the well-known folk singer Pete Seeger on10 counts of contempt of Con¬gress, again for not answeringquestions directed to him byHUAC, has also stirred anti-HUACsentiments. Seeger is appealinghis case now.This campaign spurred and re¬mains a primary source of con¬tention between conservative andliberal student groups.While students opposing thecommittee continue efforts theconservatives of the studentmovement, many of whom sup¬ported and sbme of whom helpedto make Operation Abolition, is¬sue reports on what they see asnecessary service which HUACrenders the nation.CHICAGO MAROON • June 9, 19611911—Rockefeller grant, Far East tripA trip to the Far East bythe University baseball teamand the announcement of aten million dollar grant byJohn D. Rockefeller highlightedthe opening months of the 1910-11 academic year.The year also marked thetwientieth celebration of thefounding of the University andthe presentation of the eighthannual Blackfriar’s musical come¬dy — “Capturing Calypso.”The l>aseball team, led by cap¬tain Josiah Pegues and managerHarlan Orville “Pat” Page, leftfor Japan on September 2. Play¬ing a schedule that includedgames with teams from severalJapanese universities, Philippineclubs, and United States armybattalions, the Maroons lost onlyone game in their entire threemonth tour. They returned tocampus at the end of Decemberto be greeted by “an enthusiastic,crowd of rooters.”Football gives personality“On trial before the American<-ollege world this year is thegame of football, king of collegesports for decades,” intoned theDaily Maroon in an editorial onOctober 6, “Before the first dayof a new year we shall knowwhether the battle-scarred grid¬irons will in the future be turnedover to the ravaging spread ofweeds, or whether the thrillinggames of former years will oncemore be witnessed.” The editorialwas based on a decision to changethe rules of the game, or per¬haps even drop it, a decisionwhich the Maroon deplored.“Football Is too inextricably as¬sociated with the traditions of col¬lege life to be dropped. TheAmerican college, without foot¬ball, would be deprived of itspersonality,” the editorial con¬cluded.In an orientation session forfreshmen (first year students)the entering class was told of thetraditions of the University andof “the responsibility of wearinggreen caps at all times” by upperclassmen and representatives ofstudent activities.“The verdant caps are a fixedtradition at Chicago, and thespirit with whic|j the Freshmenhave shown their appreciation ofthe fact is highly commendable,”the Maroon noted in an editorial,“Keep it up, Freshmen. See thatyou are all secure and wear thecaps, and may the whole Uni¬versity call you a wise Freshmanclass.”Mass meetings to boost thespirits of the students and themembers of the football teamwere held throughout fall quar¬ter.“ ‘Come on now, fellows all to¬gether for a Wave the Flag forOld Chicago,’ shouted Cheerlead¬er Gardner. Bowlbjf started thepiano, the rooter rose en masseand the big cheerfest. . . was on,”commented the Maroon of one ofthese meetings.Rockefeller gives 10 million“In a letter dated December 13,1910, addressed to the Presidentand the Trustees of the Universi¬ty, John D. Rockefeller informedthem that he had caused to beset aside for the University,from the funds of the GeneralEducation Board, income bear¬ing securities of the present market value of approximatelyten million dollars, the same tobe delivered to the University inten equal installments beginningJanuary 1, 1911.” Thus the Capand Gown of 1911 summarizedRockefeller’s last and largestgift to the University.The gift brought to a total of$34,515,322 the amount thatRockefeller had contributed tothe University. In a second letter,Rockefeller suggested that a Uni-versity chapel (Rockefellerchapel) be built with ‘at least1.5 million dollars” of the sumhe had donated.The eighteenth annual Wash¬ington Promenade was held inBartlett gym on February 21. Twohundred couples danced from 9'pm to 3 am, stopping only for amidnight supper of tomato bouil¬lon, sweetbreads, and dessert.Members of the Women’s Ath¬letic Association presented aparody of the 1910 Blackfriarsshow, “The Psuedo-Suffragette”in their annual WAA Frolic. Theevening also included “A Japa¬nese Two-Bagger,” recounting theefforts of the baseball team ontheir Far Eastern trip, and “AMidway Local,” a satire of Chi¬cago campus life.A protest against the “poorfood and high prices” of the Men’sCommons was drafted by theSnell dormitory eouncil. Thecouncil sent a resolution of pro¬test to President Henry PrattJudson, the Student Council, andthe Maroon, complaining that“the unsatisfactory conditions ofthe men’s commons have beenintensified by a recent rise inprices.” The dormitory residentsalso instituted a picket of thecommons — it lasted one day.Robert Millikan, a physics pro¬fessor at the University, explainedhis theories of the atomic natureof electricity (for which he wasto receive a Nobel prize) to Ma¬roon readers on April 13. Milli¬kan detailed his theory of “thedancing molecules,” as the Ma¬roon put it.“Capturing Calypso,” a musi¬cal set in the island of Philopon-neus, “presents a pleasing min¬gling of classical Greece and themodern Orient,” was presented bythe all male Blackfriars on Fri¬day and Saturday, May 19 and20. The show dealt with the ef¬forts of a group of archeologiststo retrieve a statue of the goddessCalypso from the island, and theramifications of their search. TheBlackfriars took “CapturingCalypso,” their annual presenta¬tion, on tour to the University ofWisconsin at Madison.The Equal Sufferage league ofthe University presented two suf¬fragette plays — “Cinderelline”and “Gambling” — to the cam¬pus at the end of May. The playswere described by the Maroon as“a fairly successful attempt towoo others to the cause of votesfor women.”On June 17, 1911, “hundreds”of alumni thronged the campusfor special ceremonies markingthe twentieth anniversary of thefounding of the University. Thecelebration had started the Thurs¬day before, with a dinner givenby the athletic department to allmembers of “the Order of theC.” On Friday the alumni par¬ticipated in fraternity reunions,an in an interfraternity sing. Sat¬ urday the various classes met in field in the evening. A giant “C” set off, before the alumni dis-reunions in the morning, and all covering half of the football field banded and the reunion came toalumni went to a rally in Stagg was set afire, and fireworks were a close.I WAA members parody the Blackfriars 'Pseudo-Suffragette' in their annual Frolics.UC pacifists active in '36Daily Maroon staff of 1910-11 works on an issuein their Ellis (now University Bookstore) offices. The year 1935-36 wasmarked by a rising pacifistmovement among students;by several successful dramaticproductions; by a quiet year insports, and by the death of oneof the University’s most promi¬nent historians.Dr. James Henry Breasted, di¬rector of the University’s OrientalInstitute, died in December of1935 of a disease known as homo-lytic streptococcus. An expert onoriental history, he founded theOriental institute which, accord¬ing to Vice-president FrederickWoodward, he “developed to itshigh standing.”Rockefeller boards donatedthree million dollars to the Orien¬tal Institute in Spring of 1936.The Institute was the first labora¬tory devoted to the study of therise of civilization.James Weber ‘Teddy” Linn, aprofessor of English at UC in1936, published a novel aboutcampus life in the ’90s. SterlingNorth, then Chicago Daily Newscritic and former reporter on theMaroon, stated, “The campus ofthe ’90s is as real as a bustle andas spanking as a new team ofsorrels in the frothy bit of fictionby a pedagogue who used to dotour 'i’s’ and correct our punctua¬tion.”RMH publishes bookRobert M. Hutchins, then pres¬ident of the University, had hisfirst book published by the Uni¬versity of Chicago Press, NoFriendly Voice. Said the Maroon,“The essays are a severe analysisof the fundamental principles ofAmerican education at all levels,and they contemplated importantreforms consonant with demo¬cratic principles enunciated byThomas Jefferson and with theneeds of American students.”The student movement took theform of pacifism; peace petitionswere sent to the World disarma¬ment conference, a branch of theAmerican Student Union was or¬ganized on campus. ASU, in a fivepoint platform, dedicated them¬selves to the right of peace, andright of acadamic freedom, theright of youth to education, lifeand a job, the rights of minorityraces and creeds in the education¬al structure.At a campus peace conference,students drew up anti-war resolu¬tions and a final resolution advo¬cating student control of studentsocieties. The latter was passedin response to the University ad¬ministration’s refusal to allowdelegates from the young people’ssocialist league, the Young Com¬munists league, and the KarlMarx club to participate in theconference.A nationwide peace rally wasplanned by the ASU. A paradewas held at the University, and speakers from various pacifistgroups were brought to campus.A demonstration was held in thecircle just in front of the admin¬istration building. ^The dramatic association offer¬ed Goethe’s Faust, in the spring.Norman Masterson and RobertEbert played Faust and Mephi-stopheles, respectively, while Bar¬bara Vail sang the part of Gretch-en. Henry R. Kelley of the Maroonsaid, “With Faust as its produc¬tion last night, the Dramatic as¬sociation ended the current sea¬son in a blaze of glory as far assmoothness of production, actingand scenery were concerned, un¬doubtedly the smoothest of DAproductions this year.Blackfriars spoof politicsThe Blackfriar’s producedFascist and Furious, a musicalwritten by Sydney Hyman. Thestory is of a Fascist superintend¬ent of buildings and grounds back¬ed by a smooth UC student whois, on the side, a Communist agita¬tor. Henry, the student, and a girlfound themselves ruining the Uni¬versity when an “incognito strang¬er” cleared up the mess. VictorJdnes, Elliot Cohm, and GeneDavis played the leads. GeorgeKendall was Abbot at the time.The International House play¬ers presented T. S. Elliot’s poeticdramatization of Thomas a Bee*ket’s Murder in the Cathedral.Ruth Glynn and Leonard Great-wood played the leading roles.Several dramatic productionswere offered in 1936. The Dra¬matic association gave SidneyHoward’s Path of Glory; HowardChandler played the lead role, asGeneral Deguerville. Alec Kehoeand George Mann served as stu¬dent directors of the production.Maroon critic C. Sharpless Hick¬man, commented that, “it cannotbe said that this production whollytrod the path of glory. The playwas a poor choice for presenta¬tion because of the limitation ofstage facilities.”The International House play¬ers presented Seven Keys toBaldpate, a mystery farce in twoacts by George M. Cohan. TedMacknik and Kay Gale playedthe lead roles.University opera associationgave Gluck’s opera, Iphegenia inTauris. Earle Wilkey and AliceMary Baeniger sang the leads ofThoas, king of Tauris, and Diana,respectively.The third Dramatic associationproduction was The InspectorGeneral, by Gogol. James VictorJones, Lloyd James, Oliver Sata-ler, Alexander Kehow, NormanMasterson, and Robert Ebertplayed the male leads in thefarce.Sandburg recitesCarl Sandburg gave a recitalat which he recited selections from his verse and song numbersfrom his American Songbag. Heplayed his own accompanimenton liis guitar.Other celebrities who appearedon campus were Norman Thomas,leader of the Socialist party andhead of the League for industrialdemocracy, and John Corw Ran¬som, poet and professor of Van¬derbilt University, who presenteda lecture for the William Vaughn-Moody foundation.Responding to a Maroon ques-tionaire, 56 of 88 students votedagainst the proposition that therebe no examinations at all. How¬ever, 55 students said that theydid not favor the examinationsas they were then. They felt thatthe comprehensives were toofactual for the courses tested andthought that questions on gen¬eral thory and ideas in place ofspecific matter are to be pre¬ferred, while the same numberwere against more essay ques¬tions on examinations. First indifficulty was the physicalsciences exam, according to theMaroon, second were those of thesocial sciences, and third those ofthe humanities.Douglas forms partyPaul H. Douglas, professor ofeconomics at UC, formed theAmerican Commonwealth Feder¬ation, a third party which he pre¬dicted would oust the Democraticparty at the end of four years(by 1940). Douglas, as chairmanof the new group said then, “or¬ganized statewide, and graduallyfederated, it should be a pro •nounced factor in congressionaland gubernatorial elections of1938, and it might elect a presi¬dent in 1940.”The football team had a los¬ing year in 1936, but had an allAmerican star, Jay Berwanger,Berwanger was captain of theteam and president of the seniorclass from 1935-6.The fencing team qualified fora major tournament, but camein second in the final competition.Those fencers who participatedwere captain Campbell Wilson,Lee Winter, and Louis Marks,both members of the class of ’36.John D. Rockefeller, Jr.June 9, 1961 • CHICAGO MAROON • 15SC active on local, national issuesOn campus, the academicyear began with a head startwith respect to student polit¬ical activity. New universitythought, a nationally-circulat¬ed magazine published oncampus, brought out its secondissue Just as school began. Themagazine publishes articles do¬nated to it by top-flight poli¬ticians and intellectuals, but itsprimary emphasis is on studentpolitics.Student government, in thefirst weeks of the quarter, passeda resolution offering its supportto the UC Students for the Abo¬lition of the un-American activi¬ties committee. (This group sub¬sequently broadened its activi¬ties and became UC Students forCivil Liberties.)The anti-HUAC group, underthe leadership of Art MacEwan,went about the University neigh¬borhood gathering signatures ona petition to Congress urging itto abolish the HUAC. Studentand faculty petitions were alsocirculated. More than 1,000 nameswere presented to 3d District Con¬gressman Barrati O’Hara inWashington on January 2d whenstudents from across the nationdescended upon the House Of¬fice building to demand abolitionof the Committee.Perhaps the most significantaspect of this demonstration, interms of future campus politics,was the presence of a counter-picket organized by the YoungAmericans for Freedom in sup¬port of the House Committee.Although the conservativeswere outnumbered by the liberals,and in spite of the fact that theconservative protest was marredby the presence of the AmericanNazi party, Hungarian refugees,and Cuban exiles, the Washingtondemonstrations proved that thestudent movement was not a one-party affair.Sympathy pickets of varietystores were organized on campusby the local NAACP and theYoung People’s Socialist Leagueto support the sit-ins. A continu¬ing body was set up, with off-cam¬pus support, in the form of theChicago Youth Committee forCivil rights.A single issue of the Maroonduring Autumn quarter (Oct. 21)reported appearances on campushy Erich Fromm, Linus Pauling,Adam Clayton Powell, and Ches¬ter Bowles. Fromm was broughtto campus by the UC YoungPeople's Socialist league. Paul¬ing by the Student Peace Union,and Powell and Bowles by theUC Students for Kennedy and on a march to the downtownheadquarters of both major par¬ties to demand fulfillment of thecivil rights campaign pledges ofboth candidates. The march wasled by Tim Jenkins, National Af¬fairs vice-president of NSA.On November 18 and 19 the UCchapter of the NAACP held aYouth Conference on Civil Rightswhich explored approaches to di¬rect action on civil rights ques¬tions.• * *The opening of the new quartersaw a complete realignment ofthe political forces within Stu¬dent Government. The activistelements of the old IndependentStudent league (ISL) broke fromtheir party, taking with them themajority of the leadership ofthe Government. The discontent¬ed element of ISL joined with theStudent Representative party(SRP) to form a coalition on theLeft subsequently named POLIT.The formation of POLIT led tocorresponding activity to organ¬ize an opposition party, the Prac¬tical Reform Organization (PRO),headed by Willard Ayres, chair¬man of the Young Republicans.In the Spring elections to Gov¬ernment, POLIT secured a one-vote majority over the combinedvotes of PRO and IRP (the In¬dependent Reform Party), whosesurprising strength demonstrateda concern on the part of the stu¬dents that Student governmentwas becoming too much orientedto off-campus issues.The fund drive for World Uni¬versity service, sponsored by theNSA Committee of SG, nettedover $2,000 in a matter of weeks.WUS is an international organiza¬tion which provides health serv¬ices and physical facilities to stu¬dents and faculties all over theworld, in addition to offering em¬ergency relief such as in thecrisis following the Chilean earth¬quakes and in the closing of theSouth African universities to Ne¬gro students.On February 12 (Lincoln’sbirthday), Student Governmentorganized a sympathy picket ofthe Chicago Balaban and Katztheaters. The B & K parent chain,ABC - Paramount, had refused(and still refuses) to integrate itsSouthern theaters. In responseto an appeal for nation-wide Lin¬coln’s birthday demonstrations bythe Students for Direct action atthe University of Texas, SG led 100 students on the well-publi¬cized picket.One of the best-attended cam¬pus meetings of the year was ashowing of the film “OperationAbolition,” prepared by theHUAC to Hnk the San Franciscodemonstrators (see accompany¬ing article) to the CommunistParty. The showing of the filmwas followed by a debate betweenJohn Weicher and John McCarthyof YAF and Len Friedman andJesse Auerbach of the US Stu¬dents for Civil liberties on themerits of the Committee itself.The Student Peace Union (SPU)circulated a petition which calledfor the establishment of Presi¬dent Kennedy’s proposed PeaceCorps under United Nationsauspices, and for the inclusionin the program of non-collegetrained youth. The petition wasa manifestation of growing fearsthat the Peace Corps would be¬come an arm of the State Depart¬ment and the military in theprosecution of the Cold War.On February 24 SPU showeda film of the British march fromLondon to Aldermaston in an at¬tempt to gain support for itsplanned Easter march in Chicago.UC students became involvedin a heated controversy over theUniversity’s proposed redevelop¬ment plan for the South Campus.Under a headline reading “ChurchSupports hate group” Ken Pierce,the editor of the Maroon, attackedthe Catholic Church for its sup¬port of the Industrial Areas foun¬dation, which was organizing theresidents of Woodlawn in opposi¬tion to the University’s plans.The Church repudiated the Ma¬roon’s contention that its objectin this matter was to preservesegregation or to develop hatredof the University.In the same issue of the Maroonan article appeared by Rev.Charles Leber defending the po¬sition of the Woodlawn Pastor'sAlliance and the TemporaryWoodlawn organization (TWO) inits conflict with the Universityand the University-dominatedSouth East Chicago commission(SECC). The SECC replied a weeklater in an article by Julian Levi,its executive director.The controversy centers aroundthe desire of Woodlawn residents,and of the churches of Wood¬lawn, not to have the Woodlawnarea turned into a middle-classneighborhood after the mannerof Hyde Park-Kenwood. TheTWO contends that conditions in Woodlawn can be improved with¬out forcing the present residentsof the community to leave." * * •At the opening of the Springquarter, the SPU held a rally inHutchison court as a receptionfor the San Francisco to Moscowpeace marchers. Upwards of200 people were at the rally.April 1 saw some 700 peopleattend a “Free Speech” rally atMandel Hall at which the prin¬cipal speakers were Willard Up-haus, Frank Wilkinson, and CarlBraden.

Thebasic question is who shouldspeak for the American student,and what does that student wantsaid on his behalf.USNSA is a confederation ofsome 400 colleges and universities,the combined enrollment of whichStudents picket hi sympathy with Southern sit-in dem¬onstrations. Founded in the Reynolds club atthe University of Chicago duringthe Christmas holidays of 1946,the Association has grown to thepoint where it can claim to be thelargest national union of studentsin the world.But, its critics ask, how real isthe connection between this large,sprawling and exceedingly com¬plicated organization and the com¬mon denizen of the averagecampus? Has the Associationfallen into the hands of a groupof liberals, admittedly dedicatedand articulate, but actually un¬representative of their constitu¬ents?There is no question that thepredominant orientation ofUSNSA is liberal. At its thir¬teenth national student congress,held last summer in Minneapolisand attended by 400 delegatesfrom 250 of the member schools,the Association passed almost 100resolutions, any of which wouldwarm the heart of a progressiveDemocrat. The Association adopt¬ed stands calling for the abolitionof the House Committee on Un-American Activities, condemningthe action of the University ofIllinois in firing Leo Koch, urg¬ing bilateral nuclear disarma¬ ment, calling for Algerian inde¬pendence and the gradual with¬drawal of Portugal from Angolaand Mozambique. The Congressalso protested against stringenthours-systems for women, facultyreluctance to engage in substantive political controversy, admin¬istrative strictures upon studentgovernments, abrogation of fulland absolute freedom of the stu¬dent press, and so forth.These resolutions constitutedthe end product of an intensivetwo-week long student congress.The Association’s critics assertthat these positions .were forcedupon the rank-and-file NSA dele¬gate by professional liberals, onesided debates, distorted workingpapers, and a grand disregard forthe real interests and desires ofthe American students.Adherents of a middle campconcede that USNSA policy is anaccurate and honest reflection ofthe ideas and ideals of the Con¬gress delegates, but express gravedoubts whether USNA can reallybe taken as a spokesman for theAmerican studentFriends of the Association in¬sist that the cries of dishonestyare a product of distorted vision,that the function of the studentleaders who do the actual votingat an NSA Congress is to deter¬mine the “best” policy. *°serve as adding-machines mechan-(Continued on page IT)16 • CHICACO MAROON • June 9, 1961College discussed by facultyrEditor's note — An abridgedversion of a recent discussion ofthe history and philosophy of theCollege with faculty members. isprinted below.]KEN PIERCE, editor of theChicago Maroon: Perhaps weshould begin by asking what arethe criteria to be used in talkingabout a College How do you be¬gin to describe colleges in general,and our College in particular?RUSSELL THOMAS, Professorof humanities; I think one can men¬tion one word descriptive of theAmerican college since 1850. Pro¬gressively throughout the 19thcentury, but particularly in thelatter half of the century, theAmerican college almostwithout exception becamean ambivalent institution as aresult of an incorporationinto the college of various formsof professional vocational educa¬tion. Up until the middle yearsof the century, most vocationalschools were not attached to col¬leges. The Lawrence school ofscience at Harvard became a partof Harvard university I think in1847. From the middle of thecentury on, the college ceased tobe strictly a liberal arts institu¬tion, and the conjunction of theprofessional and the vocationalwith the old liberal arts withinone corporate administration tend¬ed to make the liberal arts collegean institution which was designedto serve the liberal or generalinterests of the students as wellas his professional interests.PIERCE: So plainly, if we’regoing to talk -about, this collegeanyway, we’re going to talk about at least Ihese two things— generalor liberal education, and “pro¬fessional” education,WARNER WICK, Associatedean of the College: Well now, I’dlike to add a point to that. Are weto assume that the distinction be¬tween general and special is thesame as the distinction betweenliberal and professional?THOMAS: I think the only waywe can answer that question againis historical, because there aresome institutions, not many, whostill say that liberal and generalmean the same thing. I wouldsay that this institution, from 1942to 1953, was following very muchthe same idea. The general educa¬tion which the College was givingthen was characterized, at feastby some of its sponsors, as theequivalent of liberal education,distinct from the specialized orvocational education.PIERCE: Mr. Wick, can youamplify the distinction to whichyou were referring?WICK: Yes. It would seem tobe our, principle that “liberal” hasbeen conceived to include — andthis we can take from LarryKimpton knowing a lot about alittle aS well as knowing a littleabout a lot, to put it over-simply.So that the liberal ideal is notincompatible with concentrationon a general base. And this neednot have much to do with a pro¬fessional interest. In my own ex¬perience, for example, I used toknow’ people who were going toHarvard medical school but theydidn’t feel that they had to majorin biochemistry or zoology or any¬thing I know some w ho majored in history or philosophy, or lotsof things.THOMAS: I think, again his¬torically, that if you wanted topin a philosophical difference inattitude ro any particular individ¬ual yeu could say that CharlesEliot, when be became presidentof Harvard in 1869, put into w’ordsat least what a great many peoplehad been thinking up to that time:a liberal education requires someknowlege in depth in at least onediscipline, as distinct from a gen¬eral knowledge of all major dis¬ciplines.MARVIN MEYERS: Associateprofessor of social science in theCollege: I would lay my emphasis,I think, not so much on two partswhich somehow come together.I’ve always felt that this couldvery easily be generated into verymechanical formula: at one pointyou do something very generaland broad and then you do some¬thing quite special—put these to¬gether and they are “liberal.”I think that w'e’ve all felt thisto be a problem in the reorgani¬zation of our own college. Thatis, somehow because of the diffi¬culties of attending to that whichis more intensive then more gen¬eral, we’ve often tended to justsubstitute a kind of new mechani¬cal formula for the old mechanicalformula. ,I would lay greater stress on thespirit in which the inquiry is un¬dertaken in defining that whichis appropriately liberal education.I can think of courses highlyintensive which would meet veryfully my notion of a liberal educa¬tion. Here the intent is not toNSA 'liberally' oriented(Continued from page 16)ieally reflecting the unthinkingpositions adopted by a majorityof their campus.As could be predicted, few ofNSA’s detractors are in sympathywith the liberal legislation theAssociation customarily produces;the great mass of NSA’s adher¬ents are in full" support of theAssociations substantive policy aswell as its formal structure.It is something of an anomolyhere that the liberal wing of theorganization has clung tenacious¬ly to a Burkian conception of thefunction of a representative; theconservatives have thrown Ed¬mund Burke to the W'inds.Schools affiliate with USNSAeither by a majority vote of theirrepresentative student govern¬ment or by an all-campus refer¬endum. (Chicago, one of thecharter members, chose the lat¬ter method of affiliating.) Schoolsare allotted from one to sevenvotes, depending upon the size ofenrollment. These delegates maybe selected in two different ways:they can be elected by an all cam¬pus vote, or they can be picked bythe student government. (Chicagois one of a mere handful ofschools which uses the formermethod of selection.)The Congress is the supremelegislative body of the Associa¬tion. It is the Congress whichformulates the main lines of pol¬icy and program; it is the Con¬gress which elects the five na¬tional officers.A National Executive commit¬tee consisting of the chairman ofthe twenty-one regional sub¬bodies of the association functionsas an interim legislative body be¬tween Congresses.NSA’s history has been stormyfrom its very inception. Initiallyit was confronted with the realpossibility of excessive commu¬nist influence within its ranks,but this dilemma had and has itsalternate horn of “red-baiting.”USNSA did not prosper duringthe McCarthy hysteria. The whiteSouthern schools, never a strongsector of the Association, havebeen bitterly critical of the Association, largely as a result of its strong stands on civil rights.USNSA earned the undying en¬mity of the national Pan-Hellenicassociation as a result of its vigor¬ous condemnation of discrimina¬tory clauses and practices infraternities and sororities.The thirteenth Congress saw abitter controversy raging betweenthe activists and the educational¬ists, with the former winning atleast an abstract victory. TheCongress came out in full supportof the Southern and Northernsit-in demonstrations and directedthe national officers of the Asso¬ciation to work for the coordina¬tion of such demonstrations.The current challenge to theAssociation grew out of this Con¬gress, and, to a large extent, outof this controversy.Shortly after the Congress ad¬journed, the Young Americans forFreedom, wras founded. This ex¬tremely conservative group, whichis essentially a successor to theolder Intercollegiate Society ofIndividualists, has devoted a largeportion of its activity to theUnited States National StudentAssociation. Largely out of thisconservative group, such anti-NSA organizations as the Com¬mittee for a Responsible NationalStudent Organization and the Stu¬dents Committee to Accurate Na¬tional Representation have takenwing and flown.These groups, and the wholeright-wing of the Association,have thus far enjoyed no largesuccesses. The Association hascontinued to grow, both in num¬ber of member schools and innumber of students represented.However, a lengthy and possiblymessy confrontation is shapingfor the 14th Congress, which willbe held this summer at the Uni¬versity of Wisconsin.During the past year the Asso¬ciation has been forced to spendmuch of its time answering itscritics and defending itself againsttheir charges. This, of coursejgreatly complicates the realiza¬tion of any large positive pro¬gram.Much time has been spentbuilding and strengthening liaisonwith professional educational or¬ ganizations. Such high-pawergroups as the National Dean’sassociation, the Association ofWomen Deans, the Association ofAmerican University Professors,and so forth, have, come to adopta benign and benevolent attitudetowards the Association.The officers of the Associationremain convinced that one of itsprime objectives remains the edu¬cation of the American studentand the American student leader.It is felt that entirely too manystudent body presidents and edi¬tors and student governments areunaware of their real responsibili¬ties, that too much time is spenton what color the homecomingponi]>oms should be and notenough on the real problems con¬fronting students today.In this way NSA leadershipjustifies its legislative forays intoareas of but scant political sig¬nificance to the average student.Chicago has always been in sup¬port of this position. (In turn,NSA officers have generally re¬garded Chicago as the happy isleof the Middle West blest.)Three parties ran in the NSAIllinois-Wisconsin regional elec¬tions, held early this quarter. Allthree w’ere in full support of theAssociation; all three, for exam¬ple, vied with each other in theirdenunciations of the House Un-American Activities committee.Certain schools, like Chicago,Oberlin, Swarthmore, Wisconsin,Michigan and Notre Dame — gen¬erally liberal institutions, havehistorically been the backbone ofthe NSA leadership thrust; fewobservers doubt that the four¬teenth Congress will change anyof this. However, it is concededthat the conservative counter-thrust this year will be strongerand better disciplined than everbefore.There is much hope, though,that the various decisive elementswithin the Association will be ableto settle their differences, or atleast that the criticisms will besufficiently answered and thatthe Association will be able toconstruct a full and active liberal-*program for the coming academicyear. train that specialist who can pur¬sue professional studies withinthe definitions or particular pro¬fessional disciplines, but whereemphasis is on taking problems ofbroad interest to educated, intelli¬gent, and inquiring men and pur¬sing them in depth.It seems tQ me one of the vir¬tues of our College general educa¬tion is not just that it covers theboard, although I think that isa virtue. We also provide a kindof depth which I think other in¬stitutions don’t in their earlystages.WILLIAM McNEILL, Professorin the department of history andthe College: My reaction to thedichotomy that we’ve been dis¬cussing — general and special,liberal and. professional—is that,while it’s historically with us, itisn’t particuarly enlightening. Ithink that there is something thatis called intellectual quality; sub-tlty, sophistication, knowledge,and perception- wisdom, perhapsin its highest form, which somepeople have the capacity to culti¬vate, and which some people havein a greater degree than others.»I would hope that the end of theCollege is to cultivate these at¬tributes to the greatest extent thatwe can..Now this is easy to say. butvery hard to do in practice. Toachieve comparable results by manydifferent paths seems to me in¬trinsically possible. What matterscentrally is the intellectual andpersonal quality of the teachersand the intellectual and personalquality of the students. And whenyou get a community or a con¬frontation of good teachers andgood students, things do happenin an absolutely mysterious way.As a teacher I have no idea whathappens to the students in frontof me. Sometimes I wonder, some¬times I dispair, and sometimeswhen I see a former student comeback 2 or 3 years later. I Teelsomething has happened to theman. He’s grown up in some mag¬nificent way that’s partly himself,partly us, and partly the environ¬ment. And this is the best defini¬tion of a college, or a good college,that I could offer you.PIERCE: The subject for ex¬periment seems to be the parti¬cular subject matter which willbe the means for imbuing studentswith this intellectual quality,whereas the quality to which Mr.McNeill referred remains the end?WICK: I think so. I would liketo say just one thing about this.I think we should agree that thisis our principle interest—this doesnot mean that it can’t be combinedwith something which people willcapitalize on professionally.. Ithink there is a danger that notonly the students but also thefaculty will tend to think of areasof specialization in more or lessprofessional lines. This is a badthing, on the whole.One of the placer in which Inotice it is the difficulty of say,the BA concentration in Physics.There’s no reason why a manshouldn’t do a BA in physics, evenif he might think he wanted to bea lawyer. But, the idea is it’s i*e-garded as a second grade profes¬sional degree rather than a firstgrade liberal degree, and we havea real problem there.BENSON GINSBURG, Profes¬sor ami head of the biology sectionin the College: I think this dicho¬tomy in the minds of the facultyperhaps and the minds of thestudents certainly may be an out¬growth of our history in a number-of respects. One is that we beganas a university, not as a college.The other is that in the Hutchinsera the college became a separateentity with a separate facultywithin the University and it hada separate mission and an uncon¬ventional degree. This mission wastitled “general education.” TheCollege was cut off from the de¬partments, which were presumedto be doing specialized and tech¬nical-education.Our history since 1953 or so hasbeen moving away from that pat¬tern to a more conventional setup,bringing the departments and the concentration in again, but withall this dichotomy having beensetup and having been part ofour own recent historyPIERCE: In the terms we havebeen using, how would you definethe emhasis for, say, the periodfrom 1942 to 1953?KNOX HILL, Associate profes¬sor of humanities in the College:Would you mind going back alittle farther first. I don’t thinkwe should overlook—if we wantto apply some of these things toour own history—what happenedbetween-the 20’s and the 40’s hereand it reflects certain things aboutthe history of educational problemsin general. I think it’s fair to saythat it wasn’t until the 20’s thatthis University really began togive special thought to the prob¬lems of undergraduate education.In the 20's, our first effort even¬tuated in the development of whatwe called survey courses in the30’s. And those survey courses didattempt to cover the whole rangeof knowledge, but necessarily in avery superficial way.From the 30’s to the 40’s, wedid delve into certain things, inmuch more depth, under the rub¬ric of general education, and ina manner which we did not do inthe 30’s. So that the idea of some¬thing which looks like concentra¬tion or specialization began to getstronger and stronger in the 40’sas compared to the 30’s or 20’s.WICK: May I then as a philo¬sopher interested in keeping con¬cepts distinct say that intensityand specialization and profession¬alizing are all different. That is,you can be intensive in certain ofyour general education things.THOMAS: I would myself saythat up to the present time therehas been a steady increase in thedegree of concentration within theindividual courses. I would sub¬stantiate. this by pointing to acourse like OMP, this course re¬quires a kind of concentrationwhich was unknown in the generalprogram of 1931. And I wouldsay it requires a concentrationwhich a departmental course inalmost any division does not re¬quire. And I think the same thingcould be said of humanities, oror western civilization as it isit is now taught. Compare historyor western civilization as its isnow taught with the general hu¬manities course, which was a his¬torically oriented course and theonly general combined literatureand history which was taughtfrom 1931 to 1943. This is depthwithin a particular subject matteror discipline. Within even theframework of the general coui-sesour movement has been towardmore depth within a discipline andwithin the general program almostcontinuously.GINSBURG: I feel that thereare another few things that needto be kept in mind here. Theimage of what the well educatedman should be in terms of ourown College changed from 1931to 1942. This was true in thescience survey courses and I sus¬pect in the others, too. Wc werevery happy to have studentsknow the basic conclusions, andto bo able to work out problemsand to know what the consensuswas about this or that.The emhasis from 42 on. if onecan divide it that way, is reallywith cultivating scholarly habitsof mind. Getting the students togo back of the rhetoric of thetextbook conclusions. In somecourses textbooks were used inorder to show that textbooksdidn't always agree, and then onewould have the problem of w hynot? You could settle this veryeasily in terms of the old tradi¬tion by saying So and So is moreof an authority in this field, so wewill take his word for it wherehe disagrees with somebody elseand then vice-versa. But it isemphasis or cultivating thescholarly habits of mind that leadone to see what is behind a state¬ment of conclusion, and what theev idence is, and why there can bea difference of opinion.iContinued on page 18)June 9, 1961 CHICACO MAROON • 17Role of University in society discussed(Continued from page 17)I think this became the domin¬ant attitude in the College towardthe student. Another thing wasthe creation of an autonomous andseparate college, where facultywho represented various sub-dis¬ciplines all sat around a table andput together a curriculum that hada relationship between the variousparts. This was never ideallyachieved, but I think there wasa more ideal setting for it herethan in any other institution Iknow about,GEORGE PI.ATZMAN, Associ¬ate Professor in the departmentof meteorology: I think that theimpact of scholaralv researchdone in a university is one whichone ought to try to include inthis whole picture. I think this hashad a very decided influence onteaching in general and collegeteaching in particular in this c6un-try.THOMAS: Oh. I’m sure of that.My comment is that this has work¬ed two ways. At its best, researchhas greatly improved instruction.At its worst, it has become so—narrow, by virtue of the demandswhich have been placed upon thescholar or which he has acceptedfor himself voluntarily; thescholar himself has lost interestand time for areas outside of hisown narrow research interests. Sohe can no longer communicate suc¬cessfully with the people in otherareas and disciplines outside ofhis own.PIERCE: Could I ask why thechange in the aims of courseswhich Mr. Ginsburg referred todidn’t happen before 1942 or 1940?GINSBURG: But it didn’t hap¬pen that abruptly, Ken. There wasa transition period, which is whythis dating is a little bit articifical.PIERCE: Well, why was there atransition, whenever it happened?GINSBURG: I think there wasa kind of enthusiasm for develop¬ing the survey kind of curriculum.One was not satisfied to see astudent learn by rote that therewere six steps to the sceintificmethod and that they are suchand such, and then play gameswith them. One would like to havethe student really see how onetheory replaced another, see thisin a scientific context, at a latertime in a philosophic context, become interested in reading aboutthese problems and so on. Sosome of these were introduced assupplementary readings even inthe survey courses and pretty soonone had a full fledged experimentunder way. It was an evolvingsituation.PIERCE: Well, one of thefactors you mentioned was dis¬satisfaction. Are there any others.THOMAS: Well, let me just addanother illustration of this kindof dissatisfaction which I thinkwill permit us to branch out. Inthe humanities course which wehad from 1931 to 1942, we’d readMadame Bovary, and it was anexample of 19th century realism.And it exemplified a particularpoint of view which was presumedto be characteristic of the 19thcentury. But you couldn’t teachthat year after year with thatkind of simplified approach, with¬out realizing that there was agreat deal more that studentsought to be getting, not only aboutthis novel, but about the characteroi the 19th century.WICK: And about how you reada novel, anyway. You don’t justread a novel in order to place itin a historical context—pigeon¬hole it.THOMAS: That’s right, I thinkBen and I both are trying to giveillustrations of the way in whicha faculty working under thatsystem gradually saw that if theywere to give a good general educa¬tion to the students they neededa little more time to do some ofthe things that needed to be done.It was a gradually developingthing for which 1942-43 was simplya climactic year in the whole pro¬cess.MEYERS: As an outsider whowasn’t here and didn’t live throughit, it seemed to me always thatwhatever faculty sentiment wasgenerated, wasn’t there a bit of leadership involved in this set ofconceptions that had a great dealto do with actually precipitatingthe dissatisfaction into a newform?PIERCE: Why did it happenmost graphically here?WICK: One of the reasons ofcourse is that we were fartherinto the problem than anybodyelse. We experimented with thesurvey courses, therefore we wereamong the first to see their imita¬tions, since we’d been workingwith them. And also have to addthe leadership question. But Ithink it would be oversimple tothink that all of this was—thatall this sprang fullblown from thebrow of Bob Hutchins, because itwasn’t that way at all.THOMAS: The students talkabout the Hutchins college, andI never know when I read thepaper whether they’re talkingabout the college in 1931 orwhether they’re talking about thecollege which existed from 1942to 1953. You can’t tell, and I wouldlike to say here, to go into thehistory of the University, that theblueprint for what went into effectin 1931, was already on the boardswhen Mr. Hutchins came here anda person who is neglected in thehistory of this University, anotherpresident, Edward DeWitt Burton,never gets the credit that he oughtto have.HILL: You might add ErnestHatch Wilkins, too.THOMAS: And his dean, DeanWilkins should be added, I mightsay that Wilkins left here andwent to Oberlin and tried to dosomething abou* the Oberlin cur¬riculum which has remained afairly conservative one ever since.He didn’t succeed.Mr. Hutchins simply saw, thathere was a blueprint and he gavehis support to it. He had moralcourage, to follow his convictionsand he had enough political cloutto carry it through. But the act¬ual architecture of the differentcourses which went into that pro¬gram was not his doing at all.THOMAS: And the same thingis true of what happened in 1942.Mr. Faust perhaps more than any¬one was the architect of the over¬all curriculum from that time on.My own personal opinion is thatwhat we adopted in 1942-43 wasa far cry from what Mr. Hutchinshimself would have designed hadhe felt he were wholly free todesign it.WICK: Then if you take thestructure of the humanitiescourses you can trace the sequenceof humanities 1, 2, and 3, verylargely to a lecture that RichardMcKeon gave one day.PIERCE: When was that?WICK: I couldn’t date it.HILL: In this connection let meadd one another contributingfactor to what brought this aboutat the time it was brought about.At the same time I’d.sort of liketo interject a parentheses. Accept¬ing the qualifications that you’vemade, and I do accept them, Iwould not want to underempha¬size the tremendous importancethe Hutchins leadership had. It’sone thing to have a program.There were blueprint.-, in thetwenties that flopped and died incommittee as you know.The other factor is that therewas a war going on in the earlyforties and the effect that thiswar had upon the student body.Older, graduate students were inlarge numbers in the services, andcertain men like McKeon whomight other-wise have been prettythroughly occupied with graduatestudents found that they did nothave so many graduate studentsto use their time. These weresome of the best minds that theUniversity had. They W’ere ablethen, and in effect more than able,to devote the minds which theyhad to problems of undergraduateeducation in a way they had neverdone before, and never done since.PIERCE: Could we ask in whatsense should a University bestructured by the problems ofsociety?Platzman: Should we try toconceive of our general education,our college education, in a purelyabstract context or should we try Seated (left to right) are Russell Thomas, William Mc¬Neill, Marvin Meyers, Knox Hill, Warner Wick, BensonGinsburg, Gary Mokotoff, and Jay Creenberg. The discus¬sion took place in'the studios of WUCB, UC's student-operated radio station.to conceive of it as an educationintended for the leaders of oursociety. This is, it seems to me,an important question, and Iwould like to know what the re¬action is among my colleagueshere.MEYERS: I would commentdirectly to the substance of it,directly but confusedly. And againI suppose it’s getting away fromsharp dichotomies which suggesteither citizenship training or thetraining of the mind for its ownsake. With all our citizenshipemphasis which has been ratherseverely criticized elsewhere, saythe social sciences program in theCollege, to my knowledge no oneor very few people participatingin it ever had the notion of thedevelopment of practical immedi¬ate skills or an immediate judg¬mental capacity to meet this andthat and that particular kind ofcrisis. I think that on the wholethe general notion was that onedid not avoid the questions of theday or at least their somewhatmore generalized implications, butthat there was a kind of know¬ledge of political things, socialthings, economic things, whichwas prerequisite to adequatejudgment.THOMAS: I think Marvin, wehave to be awfully careful in ourlanguage when we begin to talkabout education for citizenshipand education for democracy andeducation for public responsibility.There certainly is a sense in whichthat is a primary goal of a liberaleducation and particularly in ademocracy.The very term general educa¬tion is itself an ambivalent term,because on the one hand it doesrefer to a content and on the otherhand it refers to the general pub¬lic because it’s the general publicon the one hand which is beingeducated in terms of what weas an institution or any other in¬stitution considers to be at leastthe minimal base of knowledge,and I don’t mean information, butknowledge of working oneselfthrough the problem of a civilizedsociety. In a democratic society,it cannot help but have great con¬sequence because there is a sensein which every one of us are notonly governed, we are governors.And because we have a role asgovernors, there does devolveupon us the necessity for anawareness to the areas in whichevery citizen has to accept certainresponsibilities, and dischargethose responsibilities if a democ¬racy is going to exist.WICK: Excuse me, I think onething that could be added at thispoint in terms of one of Mr.Hutchins’ slogans. The function ofa university, and here I’m not surehe was talking about the collegealone, the function of the uni¬versity is to promote the intellect¬ual virtues,-and one of the intel¬lectual virtues is prudence, whichis the political virtue. Well yousee in this slogan there wouldbe no distinction between the in¬tellectual aims of a liberal educa¬tion and training for citizenship.THOMAS: That’s right.GINSBURG: I feel that the way in which you structure an educa¬tion, in spite of what we’ve beensaying, is probably not too im¬portant provided you have peoplewho are genuine scholars whohave some enthusiasm for teach¬ing, you have bright students anda fairly broad exposure acrossdisciplines and points of view.And I think we’ve turned out somefirst rate products under everyprogram that we’ve had, proba¬bly in equal proportions. I thinkthat this business of what kindof citizen and what kind of leaderare you going to produce can getperverted. One can say that thisis a technological scientific ageand therefore everybody had gotto understand a lot of science andthis is the primary purpose—ifwe don’t understand science thenwe’ll not survive.But I don’t think that this Isthe way to load the dice. I thinkthat what one strives for is reallyto have a community of scholarsrepresenting the real intellectualachievement in these disciplinesinterested in exploring them to¬gether in whatever appears to bethe most appropriate ways forthe times and for the institution,with the brightest minds that onecan get for as long a time as onecan have. I think the main ob¬jective as far as I would be con¬cerned is to produce a kind ofappetite and a kind of literacyin these fields, and especially thosefields in which the student is go¬ing to major, concentrate, orspecialize.PIERCE: Well, we've listedsome terms—libe/al education vs.vocationalism, various depths ofconcentration, education for so¬ciety—and we’ve discussed theemphasis on pei-sonnel vs. theemphasis on organization. In termsof the New College, what arethe good and bad aspects of some,of these characteristics?GINSBURG: Going from 1953to the present, I think one of thethings we’ve done on the verypositive side is to once again be¬come a college within a univer¬sity, rather than making the kindof dichotomy between the collegeand the department. There is nowone arena, namely the collegefaculty, where people are payingmajor attention to variousquestions of the undergraduate curriculum, departmental peopj.-as well as the people who usedto be in the old college.PIERCE: What have we wonor lost in terms of the generaleducation vs. vocational trainingdiscussion?WICK: Well, I think principleshave remained quite constant.That is, this general philosophythat we were talking about isstill our general philosophy. Onedefinite gain if you talk about itin terms of the experience of theordinary student is that as com¬pared to the 1953-59 situationevery student now who enters hasto meet requirements in ten gen¬eral education areas, someway oranother. In that interveningperiod, you would take portionsof this ..nd just lop it off; it woulddisappear.PIERCE: We’ve also reducedsome of these general educationrequirements.THOMAS: When you look atwhat we are now giving substan¬tively, how much change has therereally been? It’s a lot less thanmany of the students think. Ican — this may be more true inthe area of humanities than else¬where, there’s been virtually littlechange except in beefing up insome respects the content of humI.Now most students in the col¬lege will not have the opportunityto take the whole humanities III,and the loss of that is a loss. Thefact that the students who aremajoring in physical science arenot going to have the advantageof the whole of humanities III isa distinct loss in their generaleducation. But for the studentswho are taking the rvew two yearsequence, the inclusion of at leastthe first quarter or the old huma-nitiesIII is really a dinstinct gainI think for them.WICK: When you try to builda faculty by taking the old gen¬eral education faculty which wasa relatively homogeneous group,and introducing into it people whohad not seriously thought aboutproblems of undergraduate educa¬tion over a broad area, you dohave a much more heterogeneousbody in your faculty. Now theidea of doing this you might say,is to increase communication, to•put undergraduates in touch atsome point with some of the peo¬ple who are making research pro¬gress. But the problem of makingone faculty out of this very hete¬rogeneous bunch is unfinished, al¬though it’s being conducted.PIERCE: What about thestatement that the specifics of theorganization and the content ofthe curriculum is not so impor¬tant as the kintj of students, thekind of faculty, and the generalclimate? Would it be a safe betthat good faculty and good ad¬missions procedures would auto¬matically result in the best possi¬ble college?WICK: No. if you take it with¬out qualification. If you had thebest students and the best faculty,you wouldn’t do anything verybad, but there are better andworse ways to use the best stu¬dents and the best faculty. Other¬wise you wouldn’t think about cur¬ricular problems, which we do.PIERCE: Thank you, gentle¬men, very much.Scholarships availableStudents wishing to apply for Rhodes scholarships for the1962-3 academic year should contact George Playe, dean of under¬graduate students, within the next few days.Thirty-two Rhodes scholarships are given annually to Ameri¬can students.

Playehas further material on fields of study.18 CHICAGO MAROON June 9, 1961CampusCultural events on the quad¬rangles this year were asnumerous and as varied asever, and perhaps a bit morecontroversail. Tradition and in¬novation were intertwined toform rich fare for culture seek¬ing members of UC’s community.TheatreTo start with the most promi¬nent controversy of the culturalyear: William Alton came to UCthis year from Bennington col¬lege to head University theatre.He brought with him several ideasfor expanding the scope of thea¬tre activities on this campus, de¬void as it is of a formal dramadepartment. Among those ideaswere a series of workshops in act¬ing, directing, stagecraft, play¬reading, and the dance, and aninformal in-the-round group toperform in the Cloister Club hang¬out. Neither of these plans, forvarious innersanctum reasons, gotpast the stage of words Oh paper.On the other side of the docket,the student-directed Tonight at8:30* series saw its first fall quar¬ter production: Omar Shapli’s"The Drafting of Sixtus Borden,”Bertold Brecht’s “The Private Lifeof the Master Race,” and AntonChekov’s ‘The Marriage Propo¬sal.” The winter series sportedtwo weekends of three plays each,which, in the eyes of one reviewer,fulfilled UTs present ‘‘passion forthe unsuitable.” The plays wereambitious, however, and varied incontent: ‘‘If Men Played Cards asWomen Do” by George Kaufman,‘‘Embers” by Thomas Beckett,and Noel Coward’s "We WereDancing **; "We Have Scotch’dthe Snake, not Killed It,” an orig¬inal by local Joe Ehrenburg, Ten¬nessee Williams* "Portrait of theMadonna,” and ‘The Two Execu¬tioners” by the Frenchman, Arra-bel. No Spring quarter series wasforthcoming.The year saw only three legiti¬mate UT productions, two direc¬ted by Alton — Shaw’s "Heart¬break House,” and Paul Claudel’s"The Tidings Brought to Mary”(the latter cast was only half uni¬versity folk), and one, ArthurLaurent’s ‘‘Home of the Brave,”by Technical Director, Frank Mar-rerro.To round out the UT picture,early in April Alton brought anoff-Broadway play to Chicago viaMandel hall. In past years suchventures have been financiallysuccessful; not so in ’61. JohnOsborne’s "Epitaph for GeorgeDillon” lost more money than theUniversity cares to think about.It was, however, very nearly first-rate theatre.Other traditional theatrical pre¬sentations (though in a lightervein to be sure) are Blackfriarsand Faculty Revels. This year’s‘Revels,’ "Empty Saddles in theBach Corral,” can be written offas lively but chaotic. Perhaps thesame applies for the Blackfriars’show, "Mad Money,” written thisyear by Mel and Peggy Rosen,Bob Reiser, and Marty Rabino*witz, and directed by Robert Ash-enhurst. It was described by thereviewer, however, as the firstreal musical comedy she had seenproduced by said organization.In' connection with musicaltheatre, another innovation hasarisen: a musical theatre groupemerged this year (as an auton¬omous part of UT) to meet thegrowing interest in professionaltype musical theatre. Under thedirection of founder Jerry Mast,the group presented "The BillyBarnes Revue” during the winterquarter. Its caliber was of thehighest and it appears that theorganization is going to becomea permanent one.MusicThough no noticeable dissen¬sions erupted in the music depart¬ment this year, campus musicalofferings have been near spectac¬ular, especially in view of thegeneral lack of enthusiasm thatthe Musical society, Recorder so¬ciety, Madrigal singers, and UC culture is varied and extensiveSymphony have evoked of late.The Musical society gave sixconcerts throughout the academicmonths, sometimes concentratingtheir efforts in a special fieldsuch as German Renaissance andBaroque music, sometimes con¬trasting divergent eras (18th and20th century chamber music), andsometimes joining with either theRecorder society or the Madrigalsingers. Their final concert onMay 21 exhibited their newestacquisitions, two violas da gamba,a transverse flute, and a cro-morne. of themselves through song.In addition to the above Fes¬tival, the FLS presented fourother concerts: the versatile MikeSeeger, blues singers Sonny Terryand Brownie McGhee, a BluegrassConcert with Red Cravens and theBray Brothers, and (in coopera¬tion with SG) The New Lost Cityramblers. ’60’s, as seen by various localartists. Springtime brought “So¬briety and Elegance in Renais¬sance Painting” as well as an ex¬clusive United States showing ofworks by Sweden’s foremostpainter, Evert LundquistLecturesThe UC Symphony orchestraand the Glee dub, both under thedirection of Colin Slim, have madegreat advances in membershipand quality during the past twoyears. The orchestra presented acredible and creditable concerteach quarter, displaying a reper¬toire which included works fromSchumann to Stravinsky, fromBeethoven to Tschaikowsky.Joined by the Glee club on Decem¬ber 9, they performed Beethoven’s"Choral Fantasia.” Late thisspring, the Glee club gave an in¬dependent concert, singing worksby Vittoria, Brahms, and Buxte¬hude. Martha Schlamme, singing Rus¬sian folksongs arranged by Bee¬thoven, was featured in a fullquarter concert sponsored by SG.And in November, the Interna¬tional House Association offeredfolkster Peggy Seeger and Scots¬man Ewan Macdoll.AitRockefeller chapel is a tradi¬tional site of higher culture onthis campus. This year was noexception. In early October, Ed¬ward Mondello was installed asthe new organist for the Chapel,replacing Heinrich Fleischer, hisformer teacher. Mondello had hissolo debut on October 23.With Mondello manning the or¬gan, the University choir had astrong base to work from. Joinedas usual by members of the Chi¬cago symphony, and conductedby Richard Vikstrom, they pre¬sented their annual, elevatingrendition of Handel’s Messiah.Just at the start of the winterquarter, Bach’s B. Minor Masswas their fare. Before Easter,they gave a Lenten concert, sing¬ing works by Palestrina, Holst,and Kodaly — works little known.The final Chapel concert includedBach’s Third Suite in D Majorfor orchestra and Haydn’s Massin B Flat Major.Just before Christmas, Rocke¬feller was the scene of a uniqueand very exciting musical presen¬tation. Sponsored by the UC visit¬ing committee to the division ofthe humanities, The New YorkPro Musica, under the directionof Noah Greenburg, enacted themusical drama, “The Play ofDaniel.” Rockefeller, lit by candle,resplendent with faithfully repro¬duced medieval costumes, andfilled with the haunting, simplestrains of music from the MiddjeAges, was a rare treat and anexciting experience.Moving further into the realmof professional culture, this yearsaw another rewarding ChamberMusic series. Featured artists in¬cluded the New York String sex¬tet, harpsichordist Fernando Val¬enti, Juilliard String quartet, theVienna quartet, and soprano Beth¬any Beardslee in her Chicago pre¬miere.The ever-popular folk music fac¬tion did not let the year’s aura of“firsts” pass them by. February3, 4, and 5 saw Mandel Hall filledto capacity for the first annualUniversity of Chicago Folk Fes¬tival. Students from as far awayas Swarthmore college, Philadel¬phia, came to partake of the Folk¬lore society’s all-out effort.Described by Mike Fleisher,president of the Folklore society,as an attempt to bring peopleback to their senses regardingtheir own traditions, the Festivalincluded big names (The NewLost City Ramblers, Alan Mills),well-known Chicago artists (In¬man and Ira, Wee Willy Dixonand Memphis Slim, Sandy Paton),and — most significantly — ascore of men who are the "roots”of American folk music (HortonBarker, Roscoe Holcomb, FrankWarner, The Stanley Brothersand the Clinch Mountain Boys).The virtue of the week-end, in thewords of master of ceremoniesStuds Terkel, was that it pre¬sented men revealing the truth Tucked in the corner of a minorquad, the Renaissance society wasresponsible for three extensiveand very fine exhibits, one eachquarter. The first, “But is it Art”was arranged by Karl Shapiro(who also continued his "Art toLive With” rental service for stu¬dents). "Faces and Figures” wasthe winter offering and concerneditself with the onslaught of the The University’s agenda of lec¬turers for any one year is im¬pressive. A partial list of namesand topics for 1960-61 includes:Eric Fromm, ‘The Future ofMan”; Alan Paton, "Problems inAfrica”; Linus Pauling, ‘The In¬humanity of War”; Angus Wil¬son, “Conformity and the Novel”;Paul Tillich in a series of lecturesexploring the interrelationshipsand common problems of religionand culture. Brando in “The Wild One” to“The Last Ten Days.” Interna¬tional house offered such widelydivergent films as “Ivanhoe” and‘The Bolshoi Ballet.” Documen¬tary Films is strictly out of theordinary, showing experimentalfilms which speak through thecamera medium and defy conven¬tion. As well as featuring filmsnever seen in the Midwest, theyreran perennial favorites of thegenre: “Blue Angel” and “Pleas¬ure Gardens.”Following up last year’s Dar¬win centennial, the film made atthe time was given its world pre¬miere in Mandel hall on October21. The showing was followed bya panel discussion of the famousScopes Case of 1924. Scopes wasa member of the panel.CinemaCinematic culture on this cam¬pus is many-faceted.

In no other field of investigation—not even jotirnalism—can a man find such quickidentification with world-wide affairs as in thestock market.To a small number of men who are about tograduate from college and who have proved bytheir scholastic records that they are capable ofdoing hard, intelligent work, the Value Line In¬vestment Survey, one of the world’s foremost in¬vestment advisory services, offers the following:(1) a six-months course of training in securityanalysis, taught by the head of the Value Lineorganization and its top editor-analysts.(2) the following minimum salary schedules:For three months during the tuition periodfrom July 15th to Octobe/ 15 th—#300.00 permonth.For the next three months* apprenticeship,October 15th to January 15th—#400.00 permonth.The first year followingThe second year • . •The third year • •The fourth year • .The fifth year • . •The sixth year . .The seventh year , *The eighth year • .The ninth year • •The tenth year • «The eleventh year •, The increases in pay are, of course, accompa¬nied by promotions in title and responsibility aswell.

Produced by Univer¬sity Theatre director, Bill Alton,the season includes three playsand four concerts.Breaking a bit with tradition,Court Theatre will present a liber¬al amount of modern classicaldrama, starting with Luigi Piran¬dello’s “Six Characters in Searchof an Author.” The play, directedby Norbert Hruby, head of theDowntown College, has been slightly rewritten to fit into itsHyde Park setting: instead of asmall New York theatre, the ac¬tion opens in the Court itself. “SixCharacters . . .” will run for threesuccessive week-ends, July 1-4, 6-9,and 13-15.The second of the trilogy willbe another modern classic, “Ulys¬ses in Night-town” oy JamesJoyce. The Court presentation onJuly 20-23 and July 27-30, will bethe Chicago premiere of Joyce’swork. Originally a choreographeddrama, it will be acted straight this summer, directed by MartinRoth, who directed last year’s pro¬duction of “Scapin.”Last of the Court presentationswill be Shakespeare’s “Henry IV,part one” a natural for the openair, in-the-round theatre. RunningAugust 10-13 and 17-20, “HenryIV' will be directed by James O’¬Reilly, reviewer for the DailyNews.Technical director, Bob Bene-detti, who formerly worked at theSalt Creek summer theatre, is re¬vamping the lighting system. Alloverhead lights will be eliminatedin favor of spots located in thesurrounding trees. The effect willbe more precise — more dramatic.' A jazz festival will be heldin Evansville, Indiana, fromJune 23 to 25.Warren Bernhardt, a graduatestudent in organic chemistry atthe University, will participate inthe festival. He plays the pianofor the Paul Winter sextet.Bernhardt was named best mu¬sician at the Georgetown Inter-Collegiate Jazz festival thisspring, and his group won firstplace as a college jazz group atthe same competition.Other features on the Evans¬ville program include the Dave Brubeck Quartet, Jack Teagar¬den, Duke Ellington, and theworld premiere of the “GospelRoots of Jazz,” a dramatized pres¬entation of Negro religious musicfrom the Civil War era to thepresent day.Ticket orders are now beingaccepted at festival headquarters,131 Locust Street, Evansville, In¬diana, for reserved seats at $3.75and $4.75 for evening perform¬ances (8 pm to midnight) and at$2 and $3 for afternoon perform¬ances (1:30 to 4:30 pm).

The purpose of the AmericanIndian Chicago conference(AICC) which will run from Tues¬day. June 13 to Tuesday, June 20,is to draft a “Declaration of In¬dian Purpose,” a basic messagefrom all American Indians onpolicy and guidelines for Indianaffairs. Sol Tax, professor of an¬thropology, conceived the idea ofthe AICC. and is acting as coordi¬nator for the conference. Tax com¬mented that the meeting was “amajor event in the history of ourcountry. For the first time, at thisChicago conference, it will be In¬dians expressing themselves, andmaking their own plans and therest of us listening. If the voiceof the American Indian is united,it will be listened to and heard.Right now the country is at acrossroads in Indian affairs, sothat what Indians say now is es¬pecially important.”Administration interestedTax reported that Secretary ofthe Interior Steward Udall had“expressed a personal interest” inthe conference, as have membersof the administration's task forceon Indian policy.“The governors of many states,the Public Health and Welfarepeople, educators and church or¬ganizations of all kinds are show¬ing great interest in your work,”he told the Indians.Tax asserted in his report thatthe so-called “termination policy”Sol Tax, coordinator ofthe American Indian con¬ference. inaugurated by Congressionalresolution in 1953, is dead. Thisresolution set up a federal policyof freeing the U. S. governmentof the responsibilities of supervi¬sion and control of Indian affairs.“Nothing more should happenin Indian affairs without full In¬dian understanding and consent,”Tax said. ‘The new administra¬tion in Washington — and theCongress and the whole Americanpeople — have to work out a newIndian Affairs policy. There is noIndian Affairs policy now.”Daley issues decreeRichard J.
