UC's BettleheimGhetto philosophy' criticized Folk festival scheduledBi u no Bettleheim, profes¬sor of psychology and prin¬cipal of the OrthogenicSchool, criticized the West¬ern world’s acceptance of “ghettophilosophy,” in a recent speechmade to the American Council ofJudaism. Bettleheim believes thatthis philosophy, which was heldby many European Jews duringHitler's persecution, was an im¬portant factor in their demise.The noted psychoanalyst and so¬cial psychologist made his ob¬servations as guest lecturer at theEighth Annual Lessing J. Ro-senwald lecture. He spoke fromhis personal experiences, havingsurvived the concentration campsat Dachau and Buchenwald.Because Jews thought they werethe chosen people. Bettleheimspeculated, they were not suffi¬ ciently concerned about the restof mankind. He admitted, ‘‘I meetwith unbelieving astonishmentwhen I remind American Jews ofwhat should be known to themall; that Hitler destroyed about20 million Russians, several mil¬lion Poles, and the total Gypsypopulation of Europe, to mentiononly a few of the racial groupshe wiped out according to planbecause they were considered ofinferior race.”“It is tragic,” Bettleheim stated,“that so many Jews still see thisgreatest tragedy in Jewish historyonly from the perspective of Jew¬ish ghetto history and not of theworld history it belongs to.”The refusal of the persecutedJews to take direct action fortheir defense. Bettleheim pointedout, was characteristic of theCuban refugee speaksDr. Arturo Olivera, head ofthe Chicago Council for aDemocratic Cuba, and a Cubanrefugee, will speak before theDC Conservative Club tonight(Wed.) on Cuba.The meeting will be in the EastLounge of Ida Noyes at 7:30. Itwill be open to non-members andthere is no admission charge.The Conservative Club recentlybecame affiliated with he Inter¬collegiate Society of Individualists.According to President Jim Pow¬ell the affiliation was to take ad¬vantage of ISI’s speaker and liter¬ature programs, and so that theConservative Club could partici¬pate in various seminars and otherISI activities. “The affiliation,”said Powell, “will in no way affectour purpose or independence.”The Intercollegiate Society of In¬dividualists was founded in 1953 byFrank Chodorov. “Its purpose,”Ex-president of SGat MSU reinstatedThe former Michigan StateUniversity (MSU) studentgovernment president, RobertHoward and three other for¬mer leaders of student organiza¬tions have been released from the.strict disciplinary probation im-(>osed ujx>n them since Oct. 30.The four were placed on pro¬bation when they tried to defyuniversity regulations concerningoutside speakers.

Deputy AssistantSecretary for Educational and Cul¬tural Affairs.Boerner told a House subcommit¬tee recently that Soviet restrictionson books and study matter havetended to discourage Americansfrom studying in the Soviet Union.The State Department is nownegotiating with Soviet officials inan effort to ease these restrictions,Boerner said.(A Young Adult Council delega¬tion. including a representativefrom the US National Student As¬sociation, recently visited the So¬viet Union to discuss these andrelated matters).Last year there were only 25American students studying in theUSSR. Boerner said, while therewere 75 Russians in the US. ghetto mentality. Those Jews whoavoided taking action perished atthe hands of the Nazis, whilethose who fought for their lives,unhampered by ghetto thinking,survived.Denying that “Passivity in theface of persecution is an essentialJewish virtue,” Bettleheim attrib¬uted that trait to the ghetto at¬titude. He cited the few survivorsof the Warsaw ghetto who valiant¬ly resisted Nazi persecution andsurvived.In relating his theory of ghettomentality to modern America,Bettleheim pointed out thi Amer¬ican Jews often group togetherin suburbs in a withdrawal intoa modern kind of ethnic or reli¬gious isolation, ^his tendency, hestated, is evidence of the factthat the ghetto traditions are stillpresent.Bettleheim concluded by urgingJews to begin a new era of en¬lightenment and liberality. Toaccomplish this aim they musttranscend their ghetto heritageand lead the fight for a unifiedmankind, he said.

Theothers were Gerhard Meyer, BertHoselitz and Martin Bailey.Gerhard Meyer, associate pro¬cessor of economics, believes that*' is inevitable that the taxcut will involve some deficit fi¬nancing. He said that is is con¬ceivable that the administrationmay be right in hoping that thedeficit will be only temporary.Meyer pointed out that the effectfrom the tax cut will depend onmany psychological and politicalvariables, which make it very dif¬ficult to predict in advance whatihu long term, outcome will be.I think it’s a question whether, the tax cut will stir productivitysufficiently to provide jobs for theunemployed, after all that’s whatj‘,e whole thing is about,” said,(''1 Hoselitz, professor in the di-'isioii of social sciences.-- though the tax revision couldK'T *° decrease unemployment, Hoselitz does not believe it willsolve the problem of unemploy¬ment.Asked if the pressures insideCongress will enable the bills tobe passed. Hoselitz replied, thatthere are many people who feelthat the bills must pass, and thatCongress may respond to theirpressure by treating the tax-billsas popular measures.President Kennedy’s tax cutcalled for a reduction in taxes of$10 billion dollars in the next threeyears, with 6 billion of it comingdaring 1963. Kennedy admitted thecut might lead to a federal deficitin excess of the predicted total of$7.8 billion, and that deficit spend¬ing might also have to be used, butadded that the cut will eventuallyenable the government to comeout ahead.Harberger pointed out that thereis widespread agreement amongprofessional economists that a cutin the tax rates will contribute tothe fuller employment of Americanresources. “This will help to bal¬ance the budget.” he said.The key point, according to Mar¬tin Bailey, associate professor ofeconomics, is that with full em¬ployment “we could expect a bal¬anced budget.” But even if thegovernment were forced to con¬tinue operating with deficits, hewould not object to the bills. “It ticipate that out of this meeting Alonso.

Fraternities at UCare no more important than anyother campus organizations, and,as 75% of the undergrade te menat UC have demonstrated, it is pos¬sible to pursue a rewarding collegecareer without affiliating with afraternity.We are not now going to deliverthe Maroon’s traditional homily onthe inherently evil nature of fra¬ternities; nor do we plan to putglowing praise of the UC fraternitysystem; lor in truth, the mostsignificant thing about UC’s fra¬ternities is their lack of signifi¬cance.It is true that many evils of fra¬ternity systems at other colleges’ do not apply to the UC system.’’ UC fraternity initiations do not'seem to be dominated by childishdegrading, hazings, Phi GammaDelta’s nonsense of two years agonotwithstanding. Silly fraternitypranks are no more frequent orabsurd than the cobra fights inEast House. There would seem tobe few infringements on theautonomy of UC chapters. The oneUC fraternity with a discriminatoryclause in its national charter, aftermuch procrastinating and hedging,seems to finally be about to dosomething about eliminating it.Blackballs are rarely, if ever, used,even if only because the frater¬nities have had too few prospectivepledges lately to be very choosey.Ami finally, not belonging to afraternity in no way means that astudent finds himself hampered inhis attempts to participate in themainstream of campus life, if, in¬deed such a mainstream exists.In fact, at the risk of shockingsome of our readers, particularlythose in fraternities, we will whole¬heartedly acknowledged that UCfraternity men share the same in¬tellectual commitments as the restthe student body. Our commentslast quarter that fraternities are onthe periphery of the UC communityof scholars were not based on anegation of the student status offraternity men, but rather on thenotion that fraternities, which aresupported and encouraged by theadministration, rarely in their roleas fraternities contribute positivelyto the academic life of the campus.For this reason we object to theadministration’s enforcing a rulewhich compels students to live indorms which do not contribute tothe educational experience of beingat UC, and we encourage greatercooperation in setting up a student-faculty residence unit for nextyear, for this latter would de¬finitely encourage and add to the intellectual growth of studentshere.There are certain advantages tojoining a fraternity, it is true; but,at the same time, students who donot choose to belong to a fraternitymay find equally advantageous ar¬rangements at his disposal.While fraternity houses, with thepossible exception of Phi KappaPsi, provide more gracious livingthan the dormitories, moving intoan apartment will do so too, withthe added attraction of guaranteedprivacy.The cost of living in a fraternitymay be comparable to living in thedormitories, but the cost of livingin an apartment is often lower.Students who move into frater¬nity houses to escape a secondyear under the residence require¬ment need only remember that thebenevolent and understanding ad¬ministration has allowed for aliberal petitioning procedure. Lastyear, over 95% of those petitioningout of the dormitories had theirrequests granted.Men who join fraternities toshare in the responsibility of selfgovernment and managing theirown household may find the samechallenge, on a smaller scale, inapartment living. Or, they mayprefer to channel their energies tourging the establishment of much-needed student cooperatives, or tosetting up the proposed student-faculty dormitory, which would berun solely by its residents.Those who join fraternities topartake of fraternity brotherhood,group loyalty, and the spirit of anational group sharing commonideals might find similar experi¬ences in any national group. And.we would venture to suggest thatit might be more appropriate forstudents to actively participate innational groups on the basis ofsome strong ideological or intel¬lectual commitment.Finally, we are not ready to pro¬vide constructive alternatives forrare social and athletic superiorityand the prospects of future con¬tacts, although in the case of thelatter, we would suggest that menr^bership in the same fraternity is abit of an artificial criterion tojudge a man on, and that being aUC alumnus might be just as goodas an entry into strange doorwaysin future years fraternity member¬ship.In short, then, the chief value offraternities lies in their role as onemore alternative living arrange¬ment. They are well tolerated atthis university, which takes greatpains to bring to this campus asmany different varieties of peopleas possible, including Negroes,Chinese, Indians, representativesof all 50 states, and even scholar-athletes.We would suggest to first yearstudents that they think carefullybefore joining a Maternity. We seeno compelling reason for studentsto join fraternities with manymore exciting experiences at theirdisposal.But, we hope everyone will at¬tend the rush functions and judgefor himself. For if nothing else,rush provides the opportunity oimeeting some nice guys and get¬ting some good, free food.HEW PAPERBACKS IN HISTORY AND SCIENCESeaman: FROM VIENNA TO VERSAILLES $1.35Huxley: THE DOORS OF PERCEPTION $1.35Albright: THE BIBICAL PERIOD FROM ABRAHAMTO EZRA $1-35Hudson: THE GREAT TRADITION OF THEAMERICAN CHURCH $L65Have: THE RESTLESS ATMOSPHERE $135THE UNIVERSITY OP CHICAGO BOOKSTORES802 ELLIS AVENUESHARE-A-RIDE CENTRALOffers A Unique New Service To Our Mobile SocietyNow You Can Find Share Expense Rides orRiders to Any City Nationwide.Subscribe NOW!

I was certain,as the University Party has seenfit to raise representation of stu¬dent opinion as a crucial problemso often in the recent past, thatthey, in their usual thorough man¬ner, had constructed alternativesolutions. Such alternatives, I felt,must have been concealed fromthe student body only through anoversight.In an effort to clarify the mat¬ter for myself, 1 consulted a copyof the U.P. platform for 1962. Un¬fortunately, the only positive policystatement I was able to uncoverwas a somewhat evasive allusionto the fact that U.P. feels stu¬dents should fulfill their roles as“world citizens.” Such subtle ter¬minology along with the lack ofadditional clarification is likely toleave a skeptical mind with theimpression that a U.P. StudentGovernment would be left in theposition of Hamlet: unable to acton any issue due to lack of infor¬mation, authority, or conviction.I hope then, lor the sake ofthose who are easily taken in bythe first political machine whichcomes along, that the UniversityParty will make clear what I feelmust be its constructive stand onthis matter and thereby save usfrom disillusionment.EDWARD P. STEVENSONFrats explain themselvesTO THE EDITOR:In the next few weeks first yearmen may be subjected to a con¬fusing welter of terms, opinions,fact and fiction about rusliing andfraternities. In order to clear upany possible misconceptions, theInter-Fraternity Council would liketo offer the following explanationsand advice about the rush period.The formal rush functions are“smokers,” open houses at whichthe first year men are invited intothe fraternity houses to meet themembers and learn about the par¬ticular fraternity. These smokerswill continue for two weeks, begin¬ning January 14 and ending Janu¬ary 25.Following the smokers is aperiod of dinners, parties, and in¬formal meetings at which studentsare able to probe deeper in theirinvestigation of fraternities. Start¬ing on January 26, rushees aregiven an opportunity to “pledge”the fraternity. At this time, wheremutual friendships have developed,the interested fraternity will ex¬tend a “bid” inviting the rusheeto pledge that fraternity.The pledge pc iod, lasting fromsix to ten weeks,, gives the pledgea long period in which to reallycome to know the fraternity andto decide finally whether to join.Since the rush period is a briefone, we would urge first year mento make the most of the littletime available. This means at¬tending as many of the nish func¬tions a possible, taking every op¬portunity to meet the membersand to ask frank questions aboutevery phase of fraternity life.Fraternities at the Universityof Chicago are unique; they donot wish to stand or fall on themerits or faults of fraternitieselsewhere or on any preconceivedideas that may exist, but on thecharacter of each separate frater¬nity on this campus. In order toprovide a basis for examination,the fraternities would like to chal¬lenge first year5 men to investi¬gate the following set of propo¬sitions:1)That fraternity members have the same intellectual commit¬ments that characterize UC stu¬dents generally. Studies are offirst importance. Furthermore,that fraternities attempt to broad¬en academic and cultural experi¬ence through faculty guest pro¬grams, theater parties and thelike.2) That fraternity costs are nothigh. On the contrary, living costsmay well be lower than those inthe dorms.3) That fraternity members areactive in a great variety of campusorganizations and activities, fromthe MAROON staff to varsityathletics. Fraternity membershipdoes not mean a retreat fromcampus life; rather it may meanan increased involvement in themany worthwhile campus activi¬ties.4) That fraternities provide afull intramural athletic programwith participation higher than inany other league.5) That fraternities provide asuperior social program with awide variety of mixers, partiesand other events, depending on thedesires of the members of thefraternity.6) That fraternities provide ex¬cellent training in leadership andresponsibility. Fraternities decideall of their own affairs throughtheir own democratic organization.Fraternities maintain their ownhouses, plan and serve meals,organize their own social life, andpursue other goals as they deter¬mine for themselves.THE INTER-FRATERNITYCOUNCIL OF THEUNIVERSITY OF CHICAGO.Election and statementhave no significanceTO THE EDITOR:There are only two objections toPolit’s Sunday Resolution and itsactions within S.G.; first, thestatement was meaningless withregard to the relationship betweenPolit representatives to the assem¬bly and their constituency; andsecond, the Polit majority in theGeneral Assembly and on theElection and Rules Committee hasso long delayed the recall electionthat it now becomes meaningless.“Therefore, a Polit majority inS.G. will not take stands on futureissues of such a controversial po¬litical nature as the Cuban crisisof October, 1962, unless it is pos¬sible beforehand to ascertain whatstudent opinion on the issue is,”says the resolution.This is certainly a significantstep toward student governmentutopia, but it promises significant¬ly little to the electorate. It prom¬ises only that Polit will not repeatits obvious blunder by again flag¬rantly disregarding the obviouswishes of its constituents. Indeed,it promises that whenever it be¬comes obvious that the students ofthe University will be indignant ata Polit position, Polit will gracious¬ly reconsider this position so asnot be be defeated in the nextelection. This is certainly a gra¬cious gesture. After all, Polit saysit's conciliation and Polit is a gra¬cious group.But the basic problem remainsunanswered. Polit still fails to real¬ize the distinction between the stu¬dent qua student and student quacitizen as well as the distinctionbetween the University of ChicagoStudent Government Assemblyand the National Student Associa¬tion (NSA).It does not recognize that weobject not only to its Cuban reso¬ lution per se, but also to any stu¬dent Government resolution onCuba. The question of a U.S. block¬ade is not within the province ofS.G. to discuss or to resolve: itaffects students only insofar asthey are citizens but not insofaras they are students and it is thisdistinction that goes unnoticed inPolit circles. We do not object toa resolution in segregation or vio¬lation of academic freedom; wedon't even object if S.G. resolvesto back the students of SouthAfrica. But we do object to standson Berlin, Cuba, Russia, China,’’Transylvania, etc., because thesequestions do not concern studentsas students, they concern studentsas citizens and we have two op¬erating bodies to deal with them—NSA and the Congress of theUnited States. The Student Govern¬ment of the University of Chicago.should be concerned basically withthe U of C because NSA and theCongress of the United States arenot about to do so. And it cer¬tainly needs attention.It is to give the students of theUniversity the attention they havea right to expect from their government that the recall petitionwas originally circulated — backin November. Some of us withextraordinary powers of memorycan even remember that back onOctober 25. the Polit majoritypassed a Cuban resolution. Threeand one-half weeks later a recallpetition was submitted to the as¬sembly which subsequently interpreted the 30 day Constitutionaltime limit to mean 30 school daysplus weekends. This promised anadditional month’s delay in and olitself. We waited patiently'. Butwithin those 30 days came theChristmas interim of 2Mt weeks.Again we w-aited patiently'. By themost liberal interpretation of theliberal Polit interpretation, theelection should still have been heldbefore last Saturday, January 5But as the Maroon reported. *‘th«vote had originally been planne ifor next week,” i.e. January 17 and18 — a full two weeks after theConstitutional time limit.Now, although Polit will hide behind Dean Wick’s request for anadditional postponement, the alltoo sad fact remains that even hadthe Dean never asked for such eooperation, the Polit-bludgeoned recall would still have been muchmuch loo late.The continual procrastinations oiPolit are unforgivable and itstactics are obvious — “to keepPolit as the dominant, politicalforce on campus.” Now. the recallwill be held ten weeks before thegeneral spring elections and a fullthree months after the initial gov¬ernment resolution. A meaninglesselection if ever there was one. Andall this is “to keep Polit as thedominant political force on cam¬pus.” There is only one way toeliminate the possibility of a recurrence of these actions by Stu¬dent Government and that is byeliminating Polit “as the dominantpolitical force on campus.”JERRY HYMAN. 1RP •AL LEVY, IRPRequirement Causes MonksTO THTE EDITOR:It is curious to note that whileDean Simpson bemoans the maidenladies and maggoty-minded monksin our student body, he also en-,«forces the residence requirementto keep them that way.AN EMANCIPATEDAPARTMENT DWELLERMounties' activities queriedThe Canadian Associationof University Teachers hasrequested the Canadian gov¬ernment to deny reports thatthe Royal Canadian Mounted Po- professors have been questionedabout the political views and ac¬tivities of students who have notapplied for any government post.They believe that the reports willlice (RCMP) are investigating ac- have adverse affects on studenttivities of students on Universitycampuses.According to the Association, thereports have alleged that studentshave been asked to act as inform¬ers about other students and that academic freedom due to fear o‘being put on a RCMP “blacklist.”The Association has asked thegovernment for information con¬cerning the truth or falsehood ofthe reports.:twm'School For Scandal' reviewed Tulane set in tegrate"Tareyton’s Dual Filter in duas partes divisa est!”eays Quintus (The Eye) Tacitus, well-known hunter and man about town. “My modus vivendi calls lor thevery best.

It will playagain this weekend and next, inthe little theatre on 51st Street.To find it you go in an ominousdoorway between the Pizza placeand the National, wander up a longdark stairway, turn left 'only wayto turn), and ask for studentprices if you remembered yourID.For those who aren’t up on thelocal scene: the Last Stage wasfounded last winter by a groupof long time theatre majors atUC who aimed to create a theatrethat would be even farther out.They have a fairly high battingaverage in artistic success, andcurrently they have a near mono¬poly locally on experienced theatrel>eople, since Company of theFour is on ice. “The School forScandal’’ ranks among their bestproductions by w'hich I mean Ilike it.The production is a very ambi¬tious work of art that isn’t quitefinished. The lights and sound areunpredictable. An occasional linegets blown, another is confusing,another is dull. But the demeritsare outnumbered and outclassedby the virtues of the show.First, it’s a good play to startwith. And the director and histroop have been faithful to Sheri-(ian’s play, giving it a warm glowof good feeling. The play is themore entertaining because of thealmost Gogolian theatricality ofWayne Caudill’s direction, the res¬plendent and occasionally cock¬eyed costumes, and the stage de¬sign which is a miniature of aRestoration proscinium, a littlestage with full-sized people. It isa spectacle, and spectacle is agood thing in-theatre.Sheridan’s work itself is a funny and sophisticated comedy — andfear not, undergraduate, it playsimmensely better thlan it reads.The plot is really very simple. SirPeter Teazle, an old fool, marriesa young girl from the country,and then she discovers the cityand he’s miserable. She is adoptedby a clique of gossips whose talesare far more wonderful than true—a character ruined in everyword. She is, incidentally, pursuedby Joseph Surface, who is alsoafter the dowry of her husband’sward Maria. But Sir Peter wouldnever guess all this, for Josephhas a sterling reputation for sobri¬ety and virtue. Maria loves Jos¬eph's brother Charles, a dashingmadcap whose charitability andyouthful high spirits are, in theeyes of the world, scandalous pro¬fligacy. Then very rich UncleOliver arrives from the Indies andassumes false identities to testthe true worth of Charles andJoseph. He barely survives. Hegets tossed up and down, soakedin sack, shocked, insulted, draggedaround and nearly heaved into thealley before he is satisfied thatCharles is a good fellow and thatJoseph is ceally a dark plotter, acad, a miser so tight he squeaks.Quite apart from speaking theirlines (which they do very well)the actors look good. Some sceneslook like engravings from “TheRake’s Progress.” In one scenethe gilded youth, Charles’ drink¬ing buddies, clad in the most cot¬ton-candy of pastel silks andsatins, sprawl all over a harpsi¬chord with bawdy ballads andliterally trip through some un¬recognizable court dance with themost magnificently sotted rubber-putty expressions.The scandal mongers (Sir Ben¬ jamin Backbite, his old UncleCrabtree, Lady Sneerwell andMrs. Candor) tilt their chins andpose in their chairs in the mostexquisite salon manner. Felix Shu¬man (Crabtree) perches his sag¬ging carcass delicately on a weechair, legs at all angles, and looksinhumanly Hogarthian.The production has some wel¬come frills: harpsichord musicduring the intermission, courtdances to open and close theshow, a little subplot for the furni¬ture movers — a courtship clever¬ly pantomimed by Brenda Dykeand Herb Nector.The play is well cast and theacting is of pretty high quality.Especially to be lauded are Ken¬neth Northcott's gruff, funny,affable Sir Peter and the wisefooling of Marshall Richey’s UncleOliver, who is more to be laughedwith than laughed at.Cyndee Schwartz plays LadyTeazle beautifully. She is catty,flirty, teasing, raging and ulti¬mately repentant but sweet all theWhile. Jerry LaPointe is partic¬ularly right for the part of thedashing hero Charles, irreverentand benevolent. David Ingle pro¬jects evil as brother Joseph.Rod Phillips as the usurous Jew,Moses, takes indecent pleasure inhis own villainy, and James Red-field as Snake takes his villainymost seriously. Jane Whitehill(Maria) and Tom Kelly (Rowley)play their characters with thewarmth needed in straight roles.When “School for Scandal”closes the Last Stage will dosomething called “Live LikePigs”; an intriguing title isn’t it?It will open February 8 in thelittle lost loft on 51st Street.Carol Horning NEW ORLEANS, LA.—The Board of Administratorsof the Tulane Educational Fund voted recently to admitall qualified students, regardless of race, to the Tulaneundergraduate and graduate schools beginning with theopening of the second semesterin February.This decision followed a rulinghanded down by Federal DistrictJudge Frank B Ellis on Decem- applicant is scheduled to enter themedical school next September.Joseph M.

TheCommittee had previously limiteditself to elementary school chil¬dren.The organization of the highschool program will be much thesame as the elementary school pro¬gram. Tutors will work with onestudent at a time, and there willbe “enrichment” groups whichwill visit museums, go to ballgames, discuss specific books, andengage in other cultural activitiesin the city.SCCC’s high school program wasinitiated for several reasons.Among them is the fact that thecity’s public school system failsto provide adequate stimulus forits students.As a result, many students ofaverage or above average intelli¬gence drop out of school .and runthe risk of becoming delinquents.The schools themselves havecrowded classes, below par teach¬ers. and inadequate facilities. Be¬cause of this, the majority of stu¬dents have real deficiencies inbasic reading skills.SCCC encourages students whomanage to get through high schooland do reasonably well, to applyto college, and offers them furtherinstruction in fields in which theyare lacking.Marcia Heiman. a worker from| Classified |Suche W ohming u.

Theyreceived an official invitation fromthe Federation Estudiantil Univer-sitaria (FEU) of Cuba, and hadbeen assured that FEU would pickup most of the tab for the trip.It proved impossible, however, toarrange commercial transportationto Cuba. The US State Departmentrefused to allow the students tomake the trip from the US, warn¬ing of severe penalties for sucha venture. Travel to Cuba byAmerican citizens is currently for¬bidden by the government.The student committee attemptedto arrange the trip through Cana¬da, but it proved equally impos¬sible to arrange commercialtransportation from that country.Additionally, the Canadian govern- (CPS) — The Peace Coi ps,at the suggestion of PresidentKennedy, is planning tochange its major area of oper¬ation from Africa to Latin Americaby 1964.Peace Corps director SargentShriver said that the change willonly reflect an increment in Corpsactivity in Latin America, not alessening of present and plannedprograms in Africa. He said thatpostponedment refused to allow a Cubanaircraft to enter Canada for thatpurpose.Schlosser said that a similar trip.may be attempted during theSpring break.The US National Student Asso¬ciation (USNSA) protested to FEUCuba for issuing the invitation toa group of American studentswithout consulting USNSA, asnormal protocol would require.USNSA also indicated that it feltthat such a delegation to Cubacould serve no useful purpose un¬less carefully chosen and educated.The original ad hoc studentgroup was said to have consistedof as many as 125 students, mostlyfrom Eastern and Midwestern col¬leges, not affiliated with any othernational organization, adult or stu¬dent.

Africa will have double its pres¬ent number of volunteers withina year.The switch in emphasis was re¬ported to be an attempt to line upCorps policy with the president’smuch-heralded “new deal” forLatin America embodied in theAlliance for Progress. Aside fromthe president’s interest, Shriversaid that a number of other fac¬tors entered into the decision:1. More applicants for the Corpsspeak Spanish than any other for¬eign language.2. Latin American nations aremore interested in community de¬velopment than in the teacherprograms developed for Africa —and and Corps has developed acurrently operating program at theUniversity of New Mexico capableof turning out 50 volunteers amonth for community development.3. The Corps’ work in LatinAmerica has picked up momentumthis year after the appointment ofa new director for the area anda personal trip to Latin Americaby Shriver.4. The American people have anatural interest in the welfare oftheir neighbors to the South.The Peace Corps has also an¬nounced that it is planning to setup a special task force to coordi¬nate the efforts of other countriestoward the establishment of theirown versions of the Peace Corps.The idea for the task force issaid to have originated in a 46-nation conference held last Octo¬ber in San Juan, Puerto Rico tostudy better utilization of man¬power in the developing countries.Most countries participating inthat conference agreed that muchassistance going to underdevelopednations was not being properly utilized for lack of trained person¬nel and technicians. It was de¬cided that local organizationsshould be formed to create poolsof skilled people for such tasks,and that developed nations shouldattempt to organize groups alongthe lines of the U.S, Peace Corpsfor that purpose. Fifteen countriesare currently reported to be developing their own versions of theCorps.U of Colorado to givecredit courses on TVThe University of Colorado willbegin an experimental closed eircuit television presentation of threecredit courses on February 5.Three fifty minute lectures in¬cluding “talk-back” communica¬tion between students and instruc¬tors will be transmitted from theBoulder Campus to the Denver Ex¬tension Center.The purpose of the program is toinsure identical courses for bothcampuses.| Today's Events |Episcopal Holy Communion, Bond Chap¬el, 7:30 am.Meeting, Student ’Zionist Organization.Hillel Foundation, 3 pm.Lecture. “The Break with Traditionalismin Burma”.
