ii Hauser, Kurland don'tagree on anti-mob lawsby Ellis LevinPhilip M. Hauser, chairman of theUC sociology department, proposedrecently that police be permitted touse special investigative techniques—including wire tapping as part of ageneral three-pronged attack on or¬ganized crime. He thought that ageneral overhauling of the legal pro¬cedure would be necessary in ordert0 destroy the syndicate which hebelieves is responsible for a majorsegment of crime in Cook County-tossing two billion dollars everyvcur, representing the biggest “busi¬ness” operation in the area.Speaking as a sociologist who wasin close contact with organized crimeduring the early thirties, he urgedmethods to deprive the syndicate ofi'S major sources of revenue, tomodernize the process of administra¬tion of criminal justice and to pro-mo:e public officials of probity andin egrity.Hauser declared that like anyother business, organized crime re-i;cs on its sources of income, andcannot survive as well without them.Looking at prohibition, he observedthat as soon as a “mode of behaviorV..I- put outside the law which peoplewould continue to follow,” organizedcrime was able to take advantageand to became the “fat and wealthy”power it is today.A. soon as prohibition was repealedthe professional criminals began tolose a major source of income. Hesuggested therefore that gambling,vice and narcotics might be legalizedand placed under government con-tcol. In this way the syndicate wouldbe deprived of most of their revenue,and in the meantime adicts might besupplied free and an attempt madeto rehabilitate them.tie contended that legal safe¬guards, originating with the MagnaCarta, which protects the individual—originally developed to protect thehelpless against a domineering king—are now being used by powerfulcrime figures to escape the reach ofsociety, “The founding fathers surelydid not intent the Bill of Bights toprovide a haven for the professknalcriminal, but that is exactly what itdoes,” professor Hauser said. “To¬day the rights of society must betaken over those of the individual.”To achieve this, he proposed a“complete overhauling and moderni¬zation of criminal law procedures. Iflaw enforcement officers had reasonto believe a person was a syndicatecriminal, had been convicted of aWick at GNOSIS caucus felony, or associated with syndicatepeople, the officials could go beforea court and get permission to usespecial investigative procedures.Wire-tapping might be one suchtechnique. This procedure would takeplace in secret, so the investigationwouldn’t be disclosed. In cutting offthe monetary resources of the Syndi¬cate, they could less afford to pay offpublic officials and police.Professor Claude R. Sowle of theNorthwestern Law School agreedwith Hauser’s objects, but was ap¬palled at the methods he proposed touse to achieve them. “Such a pro¬cedure,” he told the Chicago news¬papers, “directed at a certain classof persons, would be illegal and un¬desirable under the American judicialsystem” and he argued that itwasn’t the only way out, anyway.Sowle went on to propose his ownsolutions to the problem, including'Philip M. Hauserpassage of a new law defining andbanning a crime such as organizedor syndicate gambling, or imposingheavier penalties on such gambling.He would not however write the lawto direct it at a certain class.Professor Philip B. Kurland, pro¬fessor of law and an authority onconstitutional law here disagreedwith both the significance Hauser at¬tached to the syndicate and to hismethod of destroying it. He declaredthat syndicate crime is not the majorproblem, that personal assault andburglary committed by the non-pro¬fessional made up most of the crimein the nation.He attributed the failure of the law(Continued on page eight)Willing to study social“We will probably liavesome sort of a committee toexplore the whole range ofthe problem of social regula¬tions in depth,” Dean of StudentsWarner Wick declared Sunday nightspeaking at the GNOSIS caucus inIda Noyes.He said that this committee wouldprobably be made up of eight mem¬bers, two from the faculty, two fromthe administration, and four students;it would report its findings in thespring quarter after tlie student gov¬ernment elections. The formation ofthis committee was recommended bythe executive committee of S.G. re¬cently.The purpose of this committeewould be to explore areas where rea¬sonable discussion might producechanges in the details of the regula¬tions, Wick said. The idea should notbe to see “how much we can getfrom those wicked administrators.”Shaking specifically on the regula¬tions, he said that first it is necessaryto ascertain just what it is we aretalking about. There are, Wick con¬tinued, really very few rules, andthose are very general. Students are,of course, required to obey the lawsof the land. Also they have to ex¬hibit behavior “consistant with thegenerally accepted morals and man¬ners of our society.”Wick was very emphatic about ther'ght of the University to make social' emulations. He said that tite Admin¬istration and Board of Trustees havef>oth an obligation and responsibilitymake regulations for minor stu-deut. However, he added that theseregulations were designed to give stu¬dents as wide a range of choice indieir mode of living as possMe with-w toe existing framwork, Wick also said that these regulations ought to bereviewed regularly, both in regardto their kind and degree.He then described the diciplinarycommittee which is responsible forreview infractions in regulations. Theundergraduate coinmittee is not veryactive. It consists of seven members,one from each of the four divisions,Mr. Playe, and Mr. Newman. Inaddition, two student government rep¬resentatives are permitted to be pres¬ent at all the proceedings, though, atthis point they do not have a formalvote.When the Dean of Students learnsof an infraction of the Universityrules by a student, he gathers whatfacts he can and decides whether thedisciplinary committee should be con¬vened to consider the case. If he de¬cides that it is warranted, the com¬mittee meets and the facts are assem¬bled. Wick said that very seldom isthere any dispute over what actuallytook place, that is, the facts are usu¬ally established.The student is then given every op¬portunity to present his side of thecase. Finally, the committee deliber¬ates and makes a recommendation tothe Dean of Students who then de¬cides what measures to take. Evenat this point the student may appealdirectly to the Dean of Students fora review. Notliing is ever put on astudents permanent record withouthis knowledge and full opportunity todefend himself.Regarding graduate students, Wicksaid that disciplinary cases are ex¬tremely rare, and when they occuran ad hoc committee is formed toconsider the matter. Wick said thatthis has occured but once since hebecame Dean.Speaking on resident requirements,he said that these are instituted be- To co-ordinate UC actionAppoint civil rights committeeUC will soon appoint a committee to coordinate the activities of various Universitygroups in the area of civil rights.The committee, which will consist of students, faculty and members of the adminis¬tration, was requested by the UC chapter of the Congress of Racial Equality (CORE).CORE requested a committee which would: a) coordinate activities and b) investi¬gate how UC can make a greater public commitment to civil rights, according to COREchairman Bruce Rappaport. ——Dean of Students Warner A. Wicksaid that although the precise dutiesof the committee have not been spe¬cified, the group’s functions will in¬clude coordinating and facilitatingcommunication between the civilrights groups. Wick cited the numer¬ous faculty and student projects inWoodlawn as examples of activitieswhich would lie within the scope ofthe committee.The committee will be named byUC President Beadle or by someoneauthorized by him, according toWick. No decision has yet been madeas to when the group will be formedand begin its work.The coinmittee will not initiateprograms, said Wick, but it mightsuggest certain courses of action.The University’s relation to a fed¬eral orders dealing with employmentdiscrimination was discussed bymembers of the administration andrepresentatives of CORE in a recentmeeting.Tlie federal order requires that allsubstantial government contractors(including UC) insert non-discrimina¬tion clauses in certain of its ownprime orders which are directly re¬lated to government contracts. Thusany company which supplies the Uni¬versity with materials which are tobe used to execute a governmentcontract must certify that it does notpractice discrimination in employ¬ment.It would be practically impossible,however, for the University to ascer¬tain which of its purchases are gov¬ernment-related and which are not,UC officials pointed out.regulationsWarner A. Wickcause they are beneficial to both theUniversity and the students. The Uni¬versity gains because the residencehalls create a more stable Universitycommunity, and the students gainbecause it does students good to liveamong a great variety of people witha great variety of interests.He said that right nowr the regu¬lations regarding residency are laxlyenforced because there is not enoughDorm space available. What will hap¬pen when more dorms are built Wicksaid has not been established. Onepossibility- he mentioned is the institu¬tion of a strictly enforced two yearrequirement for both men and women.He closed by re-emphasizing thatthe area of present discussion regard¬ing social rules ought not to be interms of principle, but in terms ofspecific changes in degree and detail.For an example, he said he sees noreason why fourth year women oughtnot to have free hours. Consequently the University insertsa non-discriminatory clause on all ofits prime contracts with certainmonetary and other restrictions. Theclause is inserted, for example, onall orders which exceed $10,000.The clause appears, according toWalter Leen, UC’s legal counsel, in“every major procurement order.”Vice-President Ray Brown noted thatthe clause is often inserted on ordersfor less than ten thousand dollars.The clause must also be insertedon large orders with non-prime firms(“middle-men” or firms which do notproduce the goods they sell). In thisPresident Johnson, in put¬ting the status and dignity ofthe office of president behindthe effort to alleviate povertyin the U.S., has contributed a cru¬cial element to the political supportfor this effort, said Alan D. Wade,associate professor in the school ofSocial Services Administration, In aMaroon interview recently.The problem of poverty will besolved only through political means,Wade said, so Johnson’s role inspeaking out on the issue will havegreat importance in informing thepublic on the existence of the prob¬lem of the poor and its extent.Wade said he had serious doubtsabout the efficacy of one element inJohnson’s board program, the pro¬posed cut in income tax rates. “Acut in income taxes will help me,a member of the dominant middleclass, but it won’t help a person whodoesn’t have income at all. The pro¬gram, to be fully effective, must in¬clude some provision to help thepeople who are out of work get jobs,”Wade continued.The “tragedy” of today’s economicsituation in America, Wade said, isthat many people in the lower socio¬economic classes are not preparedfor the kinds of jobs available. Theproblem, he said, is to fit peoplewith the kinds of skills currentlyneeded in their communities. Thecrucial factor therefore becomes edu¬cation and training, he stressed.Wade praised the efficacy of lastThursday’s picket demonstration,which included representatives ofpersons receiving assistance underthe Illinois public aid program. Thedemonstration called for passage 01a federal food stamp plan, to supple¬ment the state aid for Cook Countyrecipients.Last November, Gov. Otto Kernerreduced levels of public aid. Wadeand the leaders of Thursday’s dem¬onstration, among others, believe theformer levels were already inade¬quate, and that the further reduc¬tion resulted in great hardship forthose in need of assistance.The march resulted in an agree¬ment by Cook County officials to aidin an effort to get Congress to passsuch a Federal food stamp plan.Raymond M. Hilliard, county publicaid director, said Mayor Richard J.Daley and the state delegation inCongress would help the effort. Thecounty board is scheduled to pass aresolution supporting the bill today.Under the stamp plan proposal, afamily on relief could receive up to75 per cent of its food allowance Instamps, rather than cash. The planwould also provide a bonus, provid¬ing six to eight dollars a month inextra food purchasing power. The case, the distributor must not dis¬criminate in its hiring practices butthe executive order does not requirenon-discrimination in the producingfirm.The federal excutive order also re¬quires that the University, as a fed¬eral contractor, must not discrimi¬nate in any of its own hiring policies.All advertisements for employmentmust point out the University is an“equal opportunity employer” andevery labor contract with unionsmust specify that neither the Univer¬sity nor the union will discriminate.stamps would be redeemable in mostneighborhood grocery stores.Wade said there were some thingsabout the stamp plan which troubledhim, however. The most importantis that, giving people special stamp*“defines them pxiblicly as relief re¬cipients,” he said.Wade felt it important that the“cash principle” of public aid beupheld, since a person should beable to “hold up his head” whilepurchasing food for his family.Another objection Wade raised tothe stamp plan was that there is noguarantee that Governor Kernerwould not use such a Federal aidplan as an “excuse” to. reduce stateaid levels even further.Wade also p»inted out that in astudy in Detroit conducted by WayneState University, it was discoveredthat only one-third of the peopleeligible under that city’s stamp planactually bought the stamps. Wadeexplained that “px>or people don’ttrust anything except cash.” The>do not trust “officialdom,” whichcontrols the plan, he said. Anotherexplanation was that many personsdid not have enough money left tobuy the stamp*? after paying “exorbi¬tant” rents to their landlords, Wadesaid.The Stamp plan does, however,have some pxtints to recommend it,Wade said. It not only helps thosepiesently receiving public aid, butalso covers other low-income fami¬lies.Under present Federal provisionsfor distributing Federal aid moneyin the states, levels of aid to re¬cipients are not specified, but aredetermined by each state. The Fed¬eral government provides 40% ofthe money, with the rest paid bythe state and each municipality inwhich aid is distributed.Until last November, aid levelswere set by the Illinois Public aidCommission (IPAC), which was ap>pointed by the governor, but haddirect responsibility for the opera¬tion of the program.Under the new system started lastfall, the department which runs theaid program is directly responsibleto the governor. A legislative ad¬visory committee, according toWade, has “considerable px>wer” insetting standards and levels of aid,but in the recent reduction, theysimply went along with the governorand the director of the department,Harold Swank.Wade thought the reduction in aidwas to a considerable extent moti¬vated by political considerations.Kerner, Wade. said, thought hecould “pull the rug from under thj(Continued on page eight)Wade praises Johnsonprogram on povertyEDITORIALApologia pro sua causaMr. Kelley, in his letterelsewhere on this page, andseveral other people seem tohave some misconceptionsabout the “M. Stevens” arti¬cle. We feel it is time to cleanup some issues.First, the byline “M.Stevens,” under a time-hon¬ored Maroon tradition, is usedfor stories written by s’taffmembers who do not wishtheir true names used. Itdoes not indicate the writeris not a student, or unknownto the Maroon.The conclusion that somepeople have somehowreached, that the “ex-admin¬istrator” is really just a fig¬ment of some Maroon writer’simagination and thereby amere vehicle for his personalopinions, is most assuredlynot based in fact. Jumping tosuch a conclusion appears tous rather presumptuous;there is no evidence to sup¬port it.Corrects mangled reporton council speechTO THE EDITOR:Last Tuesday’s Maroon carried a^story about a lecture recently givenin Chicago by Col. H. Ashton Crosby,national director of the Council for aLivable World. Unfortunately the Ma¬roon badly mangled Connie Fay’ssummary of Col. Crosby’s remarks.It was not Western defense againstsurprise attack that would take “for¬ever to prepare,” but a surprise at¬tack against existing Western defensesthat would take that long to prepare.This would be the case whether ornot tactical nuclear weapons were tobe used.The Maroon also chopped off theend of the story, in such a way as tocreate an ambiguity as to the con¬nection between the Council for aLivable World, and the organizationoriginally established by Dr. LeoSzilard.The Maroon owes an apology to itsreaders for printing a garbled andincomplete story, and an apology toConnie for having butchered herstory.DAVID F. GREENBERGModern linguistsstill need typewritersTO THE EDITOR:Tv.o years ago there were threedilapidated typewriters in the typingroom of the Modem Language Read¬ing Room. They were almost alwaysin use. When the library was reno¬vated in 1962, the library adminis¬tration removed the typewriters, I as¬sume using the logic that no type¬writers are better than dilapidatedtypewriters.If these typewriters are not to bereplaced, at least rental typewritersshould be provided. This was prom¬ised two years ago and we're stillwaiting.JOSEPH TIPER The ex-administrator is aliving, breathing person. Up¬on a little reflection, it shouldbe understandable that such aperson would not wish theviews expressed in the inter¬view to be directly attributedto him.It is perhaps unfortunatethat we have not yet clearlystated our opinion of the ad¬ministrator’s comments onthe University’s alleged“fight” to keep the FifthArmy base from moving, toprevent a supposed resultantinflux of Negroes.The administrator’s opin¬ions are clearly fantastic. Asrealtor William B. Collierpointed out in his letterprinted last Tuesday, HydePark is “one of the, if notthe, most successfully inte¬grated community in theUnited States today,” to someReplies to prof’s extent as a result of Univer¬sity help in the community’sfight against deterioration.We must admit that theoriginal handling of the storywas not as good as it mighthave been. Current admin¬istrators should have beencontacted to give their reac¬tion to the ex-administrator’sopinions. It was instead pre¬sented only as a report of thisone person’s personal opinion.As pointed out in our replyto a previous protest letter,this is a commonly used typeof story — where a person’sopinions are deemed of inter¬est. In this particular case,this style should have beenaugmented with other opin¬ions.In the future, we intend tomake articles which reportone person’s opinions (andwhich are in themselvesgood) better ones by addingcontrary views.

I am sure it isobvious that your choice of wordsconcerning the Tribune’s story on“John Peal” was not coincidental.“We do not believe this matter de¬serves any more notice but we willmake sure the Tribune hears aboutit, for transmittal to the unnamedauthor,” is a direct paraphrase ofDean Wick's reply to Mr. Collier’sletter, both printed in that issue.1 find such blase self-forgivenessintolerable, niat the Tribune shoulderr in its sports reporting is unfortu¬nate, although understandable inview of its size and the fact that itscoverage of the UC-Northwestemtrack meet was clearly handled bytelephone. Far more reprehensible,to my mind, is your printing of “M.Stevens’ ” article in the Jan. 7 issue.Yours is a small college newspaper.This article was on a topic that isan extremely sensitive one in theHyde Park neighborhood. To permit a story to be printed in your paper,by someone who is clearly not amember oi your staff, without check¬ing either the identity of the authoror the veracity of his information,goes beyond the bounds oi simplejournalistic errors.If this article was intended to bethe views of the editors, (as indeedI suspect was the case) I trust thatit need not be pointed out that suchviews belong in your editorial col¬umns, not on the front page, undera byline, and purporting to be a newsstory.Dr, Beadle and Dean Wick haveapologized for your lack of journalis¬tic integrity. 1 have seen no apologieson your part to the Administrationfor placing it in such an embarrass¬ing position.

Prof. Voorhees once “re¬belled” against the curriculum, hewas “overruled” and now “appreci¬ates’’ that he submitted. Hence thestudents today should submit forlater on they too will appreciate theirgeneral education.Indeed Prof. Voorhees may be cor¬rect, perhaps later after I pass this“stage of learning” 1 shall “recant”and esteem my prescribed courses.Can I rely on this, though? Perhapsalso I shall deny the merits of gen¬eral education to my last breath.Need youth be so prudent that itconforms for fear of altering itsviews at a later date? Perhaps Prof.Voorhees himself will change hismind in ten years, should he thenremain silent?It is unjust for Prof. Voorhees toinvoke the faculties greater maturityand background as justification forgeneral education. I do not doubtthis greater maturity and back¬ground, I just question its place inan intellectual community. If an in¬stitution of higher learning is to valuematurity and background, then howcan it permit its students to criticizePlato, Thucydides, Aristotle, etc.?Out of respect for maturity and back¬ground should the student for thefirst two years just digest and assimi¬late the writing of these great minds?Then we would no longer have anihstitute of “higher” learning but of“lower” learning where the students,like blotters, absorb all indiscrimate-ly. And if we are to value maturityand background and assuming thesecan be measured, should we thenadapt to the views of an individual ofgreater maturity and wider back¬ground? Thus if B. Russell endorsesthe elective system do we then dis¬mantle the general * education pro¬gram?The university does permit its stu¬dents to criticize the “great ideas.”For the university, as a free com¬munity, consists of, and should pro¬duce, democratic men who are ir¬reverent, awed by nothing exceptactive intelligence. Thus the univer¬sity respects the right of each stu¬dent to reach, test, discard, and holdonto the truths within each course.As of yet, though, the university hasnot extended this prerogative to therealm outside the classroom, i.e. tochoose courses.RUSSELL JACOBYUC Crusade of Mercy collects $52 millionThe annual UC Crusade of Mercygrossed $52,513.81 this year, an in¬crease of 17.5% over last year, an¬nounced Alton A.

TO THE EDITOR:For the past two weeks, the pres¬ent state oi General Education in dieCollege has been a.tacked (and de¬fended weakly) by the Gadflies in theMaroon, by letters to the editor, byprofessors and students at a programand a meeting sponsored by theO-Board, and by uozens of studentsin the College making hundreds ofarticulate cx/mpiain.s. These havefocused auention on widespread cam¬pus dissatisfaction wuth recentchanges in the general education pro¬gram.Incoming first-year-students are notall aware that general education canbe better than it is here, now. Thus,Russell Jacoby (see Maroon, Janu¬ary 14, 1964), and others, findingthemselves obliged, in each of sev¬eral courses, to memorize detailed,uncorrelated iacts, have criticizedthe whole idea oi general education.The general education c o ur s e sshould be so relevan. and stimulatingan experience tor the college stu¬dents, that complaints such as wehave been hearing lately would beextremely rare. It is not surprising,however, if unfamiliar material, pre¬sented w.thout much relation to in-teresing problems, and withoutmuch relation between the parts andthe whole course, should prove dudto many people.Suppose that each course presentedits materials ior consideration andlearning, as illustrations oi centralproblems and ideas important toeveryone’s life. Imagine that greatbooks were generally discussed interms of the origins of ideas whichhave influenced us and our society;that Supreme Court cases were dis¬cussed in terms of the type of rea¬soning behind the rules we must allobey, and the nature of law; thatbiochemical metabolic pathwayswere used to illustrate the problemsof staying alive; that calculus werediscussed with relation to Pascal sproblem of coping with things toobig and small for us to comprehend;that English sentence structure wereat least partly related to the way weorganize thought and the problems ofcommunicating our ideas to one an¬other; etc., etc. Could many studentsthan possibly consider such a liberaleducation program uninteresting orunstimulating?After all, most students recognizethat we must have some sort ofgeneral learning and knowledge re¬quirements. We can’t expect the U.of C; to let anyone boast a U. of C.degree \)ho can’t express himself inan essay or cancel a fraction. It isbad enough that the University doesnot require any knowledge of anyof the countries, peoples, and prob¬lems of the world today — thereshould definitely be an extra se¬quence required on that, too! Butcertainly, if Russell Jacoby or “Stu¬dent X” learns nothing about the His¬tory of Western Civilization here,Chicago should think twice beforereleasing him into western civiliza¬tion with its vaunted B.A., merely because he may become interestedin such subject matter “in tenyears,” and thus become “a civilizedman.On the other hand, the specific ma¬terial and presentations of certaingeneral education courses are aliena-ing huge percentages of the frcohmanand sophomore classes.It cannot be denied that there areinteresting and more learnabie waysof presenting even the same mate¬rial, and uninteresting and less learn¬abie ways which should be avoided.The dilference between a goodcourse and a bad course, when thesame things are included, is thesame as the difference betweenmemorizing 100 scrambled words,and learning the same words in apoem.A good course, or a poem, is moreinteresting and leamable, becauseol the integration of its parts and themeaningiuiness of the whole, thanincoherently jumbled assignments orwords. Not even Dean Alan Simpsonwould deny that! And 1 have notmet one person, yet, who does notagree that our general educationcourses could be made more inter¬esting and more learnabie it theywere organized in a more integratedand meaningful way! The frighten¬ing fact is that many ol them havebecome less so. recently.The use of such things as compre¬hensive exams has, in the past, al¬lowed college students here time tothink about cells, organs, and tissues,or about primitive societies, Freud,and totalitarianism, in relation toeach other and to important prob¬lems-of life. Students had the oppor¬tunity to relate the information pre¬sented in a year to general themesand concepts. They could understandthe significance, role, and iunction ofeach thing they were expected tolearn, before taking an integrativetest or writing an integrative paperior a grade of record.Both integrative exams and pa¬pers, and central themes and con¬cepts, in sequences of courses, arebeing rapidly eliminated w ith a ven¬geance! Quarterly grades, and home¬work assignments and tests at evershorter intervals, appear in recentrevisions of general educationcourses. Such developments are indirect opposition to the ideas andprograms once instituted by RobertHutchins. They are killing liberaleducation in the college in the nameof general education!How can we relate one week’smaterial to the next, or to the con¬cepts of the course, if there is nosuch relation and no concept to tliecourse? How much associationamong ideas or facts, so essentialeven to long-term memory (let alone“education”), is possible when wemust constantly cram for one test ordash off one report, then move on topoorly related material?The last five paragraphs havedealt mainly with the method of pre¬sentation of the same material. Butthe specific material covered in various “general” education is atleast as much to blame as the or¬ganization (rather, lack of it) of tlxcourses, for the dissatisfaction andalienation prevalent on campus to¬day. Dull details, unimportant irrele-vancies, are indeed hard to fit intothemes or integrated patterns . . .but who needs them altogether?It is no wonder or accident thatcourse content is changing. In thesciences, and now in English, etc.,the college staffs have been absorbedinto the larger staffs of the divisions,in unified departments. Joint apjjouit-ments, prevalent everywhere, fre¬quently mean that researchers fromthe graduate divisions are calledupon to teach college courses. Somecannot teach; others can only teachtheir own detailed disciplines; onlya few are really good for the college.Already, it is clear that staffs ofthe divisions now control, in manysupposedly "general” educationcourses, the content to be presentedto humanists and physical scientistsalike. Such staffs tend to try to cramall the pre-professional specilizationand unrelated details they can, intoten weeks of a course. In so doing,they neglect the problem of organiza¬tion and synthesis, if such is possiblealtogether with the hodge-podges ofstuff they give us in the name ofgeneral education. (I am purposelyrefraining from naming specificcourse staffs.)There is no longer a board of ex¬aminers in the College, to assurethat the sum total of the “generaleducation” courses is sufficientlygeneral and relevant to a liberal edu¬cation! No committee checks theskeleton of courses for the holes inour general education; no one elimi¬nates the fat in favor of connectivetissue! If such a board were recon¬stituted, as it should be, it wouldsurely find the body of general edu¬cation sick, and prescribe the medi¬cine of integration and general con¬tent.But, instead of general content, andintegration, the observed condition isgeneral discontent due to a processof disintegration!Not all courses have disintegratedyet. The History of Western Civiliza¬tion course, and a couple of othersequences, are still excellent, stimu-lating, and appropriate liberal educa¬tion courses. The rest are in variousstages of gradual, almost impercep¬tible decay.Come on, students and clear¬sighted professors, let us reverse thetrend! Don’t just defend your ownfavorite courses, or excuse poor onesbecause “every course can’t be in¬teresting.”There is a way to make everycourse a good course. If we no long¬er think so, then the steamroller ofconformity and mediocrity, whichhas been squashing the life out of thecollege, inch by inch, year by year,must have finally flattened us!RONALD P.

Adult education groupto leave Chicago areaThe Center for the Studyof Liberal Education forAdults has announced its af¬filiation with Boston Univer¬sity. The organization, now locatedin Chicago and devoted to assistinghigher education develop more effec¬tive liberal education for adults, willestablish its headquarters on theCharles River Campus this spring.Involved in many experimentalprograms since its founding 13 yearsago, the Center is presently involvedin a project for the cultural enricti-ment of Negroes in the South.It works closely with the NegroCollege Committee on Adult Educa¬ tion, preparing the Negro for fullparticipation in the emergent Southwith respect to the rights, privilege*,and obligations of citizenship.In addition, the Center promote*interest in the continuing educationof women, in particular the marriedwoman who is eager to get back tothe integrated education programafter her children are grown. It hasalso played an important part in fo¬cusing the attention of universitieson education in the arts and culturalaffairs, and most recently, in rela¬tion to urban affairs.Clinic to train dropoutsUC Clinics and Hospitals,special staff, and facultymembers of the University,the South Side CommunityCommittee, the Urban Youth pro¬gram of the Chicago Board of Edu¬cation, and Hyde Park high schoolrecently launched a hospital trainingprogram designed to assist “dropout’’ youth in the Woodlawn area bosecure “gainful and satisfying em¬ployment, and to motivate them tocomplete high school and, if possible,to go on to higher education.”This on-the-job hospital training, tobegin in early March, will preparethe youngsters to get jobs as tech¬nical assistants, pharmacy trainees,darkroom technicians, medical rec¬ords librarians, dietary assistants, ants, switchboard operators, recep¬tionists and other hospital jobs. UCHospitals and Clinics will move thetrainee along, step by step, by givingmore complicated duties as his capa¬cities and training allows.Any boy or girl between the agesof 16 and 21 who dropped out of HydePark High School in the senior orjunior year and still resides in Wood-lawn may apply for training at theagency’s headquarters, 6156 CottageGrove Avenue.Charles R. Goulet, superintendentof the Hospitals and Clinics, declinedto discuss the project until after itbegins. Applicants are now beinginterviewed. Alex Liveright, director of theCenter, commented on the recentdecision. “We talked to over twentyuniversities.” he said, “and foundthat Boston was most interested inadult education and most willing tomake arrangements with us. We’removing to Boston with the hope ofcontinuing our operations with betterhousing, service and part time facul¬ty appointments.”Although the Center is not pres¬ently affiliated with UC, HarlemBlake, then associate dean of the col¬lege, first conceived the idea of suchan organization in 1951. The Univer¬sity formerly handled the accountsfor the Center until it moved offcampus. We plan to continue ourwork on a national scope, Liverightconcluded, wliich will include a pro¬gram with the Negro College Com¬mittee on Adult Education.Calendar of Eventssupply clerks, maintenance assist-@3TapersSLACKS|£j) Wift 60.. 60S NbtUtik WVUWWJA Tuesday, Feb. 4Concert: Russian Folk and Religiousmusic, given by UC Russian Choir forRussian Civilization class, open to pub¬lic, Ida Noyes Library, 11:30 am.Intermediate Hebrew: Hillel, 3:30pm.Elementary Hebrew: Hillel. 4:30 pm.Israeli Folk Dancing: Hillel, 8 pm.Folk Dancing: International House,50c for non-members, 8 pm.Lecture Series: Elizabeth Wood, con¬sultant on Housing and Social Plan¬ning, Management Service Associates,New York, sponsored by Social ServiceAdministration, Social Sciences 122,8 pm.Wednesday, Feb. 5Lecture Series: “The Mafia,” DenisMack Smith, fellow at All Souls Col¬lege, Oxford University, sponsored byCommittee on Social Thought, SocialSciences 122, 4 pm.

MOVIE REVIEWViridiana s picture a black world Open letter to Wolfgang:chapel choir did you well“It is not my intension to photo¬graph the impious. If there were a‘pious’ image that seemed interestingor sympathetic to me, I would cer¬tainly put it in a film. But no piousimages come to mind. ... I am stillan atheist, thank God.”These are the words of Luis Bunuel,the great Spanish director of V1RI-DLANA, a film that not only postu¬lates but dramatizes, with richthoroughness and tremendous force,the fact that ours is the worst of allpossible worlds.VIRIDIANA is a symbolic demon¬stration of man’s undying talent forcrucifixion, of himself as well asothers. While Handel’s Requiem Massand Hallelujah Chorus fill the soundtrack, Bunuel covers the screen withacts of lust, vandalism, deceit, andperversion that make up an undeni¬able dance of death-in-life.Bunuel has called his work comedy,and perhaps only a person withenough philosophic detachment tolaugh at the fatal self-deceptions ofmankind could present them so bold¬ly ami so well.Viridiana is a nun about to take!rer vows and withdraw into a con¬vent. Seduced by her lonely and per¬verted uncle, she gives up the officialreligious life and decides to run heruncle’s home with Christian charitywhile her sophisticated male cousinworks to bring technological progressto the estate. Viridiana takes in apack of beggars who scorn her charityas they accept it, finally ransack theestate and rape her. She ends up ina mean sexual triangle with her ur¬bane cousin and their maid, and Han¬del has been replaced by rock-and-roll.In the course of the tale Virtue andVice come to be viewed less as op¬posing entities than as adjacent, andequally sinister, impulses. “As forVIRIDIANA,” says Bunuel, “what isit that people take exception to? Myheroine is more virginal at the end ofthe film than she was at the begin¬ ningMuch of the dramatic power ofViridiana’s “destruction” stems ini¬tially from conventional sympathies.But VIRIDIANA changes with re¬peated viewing because the film, ifsuccessful, changes our way of see¬ing.Ultimately it is impossible to con¬demn any of the gray characters inthis black world without indulging inthe sort of fuzzy thinking that Bunuelshows to be deamonic folly.The film is rife with symbols, manyof which are artificially inserted.When the uncle sets up his seductionof Viridiana by doping her coffee, alittle girl dreams of a black bull en¬tering the house through the pantry.Tlie continual introduction of sym¬bolic objects, animals, and actionsconsistently maintains the surrealistictone Bunuel strives for, a brilliant imagistic counterpoint to the fable¬like simplicity of the plot.With a baldness of style that isperfect for the expression of his anar¬chistic ideas, Bunuel gives us unfor¬gettable images such as the crucifixwhich houses the blade of a knifeand the jarring stop-shot of the orgywith the beggars frozen into a replicaof da Vinci’s Last Supper.In this scene it is The blind beggar,whom Bunuel tells us is the onlyreally unsympathetic character in thefilm, who occupies the seat of Christ.SPARROWS CAN’T SING, alsoon the bill at the Hyde Park Theatrethis week, is a bouncy but undistin¬guished British comedy that neithermerits a second viewing nor leavesa sufficiently durable impression toelicit commentary on the first.—SK Dear Mozart,I’m writing to send you overduefelicitations for your birthday and tolet you know about Sunday’s per¬formance of your C-minor Mass bythe Rockefeller Chapel Choir and theChicago Symphony Orchestra directedby Richard Vikstrom.Concerts here are sometimesbotched and distorted by the com-parative ineptitude of the soloists inrelation to the chorus.

Kennedy. Oswald wasled by his accusor, District Attorney HenryWade through a crowd or newsmen, hisjurors, past grinding cameras, the courtstenographers, before his executioner, JackRuby. The Oswald trial must be recorded inhistory as a judicial Black Mass.The Oswald trial produced a sentence butno verdict. President Johnson appointed aquasi-judicial panel, the Warren Commission,to fully determine whether Oswald indeedkilled Kennedy and whether he was indeedalone.If Johnson is in doubt about the FBI'sstatement that Oswald was the “lone assas¬sin of John Kennedy,” he is in agreementwith the majority of his constituents. A re¬cent Gallup Poll indicates that 52% of thosepolled do not believe the BFI statement. AI act-finding committee of the civil rightsdivision of the Anti-Defamation League ofL'nai B’rith reported that the majority ofAmericans believe the slayings of the Presi-d.nt and his alleged assassin “were the re¬sult of organized plotting rather than indi¬vidual actions.” (The New York Times, Feb¬ruary 1, 1964).The doubt expressed in the majority opin¬ion apparently comes from flaws in FBI as-j rtions, contradictions in the numerous Dal¬las police statements, and the Warren Com¬mission's dissatisfaction with the FBI’s five-\ olume version of the assassination. The( ommission has called this report incompleteand has asked the FBI to submit additionalmaterial.Mark Lane, a former New York State As¬semblyman, has submitted a brief for Os¬wald to the Warren Commission and hascalled for the seven-member panel to makesome semi-judicial statement about the guiltor innocence of Oswald.Lane’s interest in the Oswald case beganwhen he examined the statement of DistrictAttorney Wade that he had enough evidenceto convict Oswald prior to Jack Ruby’s one-man lynching of the accused. The FBI re¬tort on the assassination has not beenmade public, and almost all persons in poses-> ,on of facts about the assassination havebeen requested or ordered to be silent. Lanereports that Oswald’s wife is being held in¬communicado in Dallas. Only occasional newsleaks have been released by the FBI.TIME ELEMENTThe first point that made Lane and manyothers wonder is the length of time in whichOswald is supposed to have killed Presi¬dent Kennedy and returned to his rented100m in Oak Cliffs, several miles from theTexas School Book Depository where heworked.According to the FBI, Lee Oswald, alone,fired three shots from an Italian-made singleaction rifle with deadly accuracy into thePresident within five and a half seconds, froma sixth-floor window of the Texas SchoolHook Depository 75 to 100 yards behind andto the right of the President’s limousine.Oswald is then supposed to have returned tohis room, changed his clothes, and left. He issaid by the FBI to have returned first 15minutes and then a half-hour after the as¬sassination, a housekeeper who worked atOswald’s rooming house having reported twodifferent times of arrival.Moments after the last shot sounded, at12:31 the New Republic of December 21 re¬ports, a Dallas policeman and the Depositorymanager encountered Oswald beside a soft-drink machine on the second floor sippingfrom a coke-bottle. According to the house¬keeper, he arrived a half-hour after he sup-losedly fired this last bullet. To do this, Dis-irict Attorney Wade said, Oswald left thebuilding, walked four blocks and caught abus. He rode the bus for an undeterminednumber of blocks and then got off. He thenbailed a taxi and rode four miles to a pointfive blocks from his rooming house, Wadesaid, and “dashed in about 1:00.”Dallas traffic in the downtown area of thecity is reported to have been badly snarledon the morning of President Kennedy’s visitJack Minnis and Saughton Lynd of the NewRepublic calculate the time consumed duringthe taxi ride alone to be a minimum of 24minutes.’•’his would leave Oswald five minutes toshoot the President and Governor Connally,• lean and hide the rifle, run down fourflights of stairs, search his pockets for coins,Ket a coke from the machine, open it, en¬gage the Depository manager and policeman>« conversation, leave the building, walk fourblocks to the bus-stop, board the bus and rideseveral blocks, get off the bus and hail A D F LY *nching of Lee Harvey Oswalda taxi, as well as walking the five additionalblocks home.Wade, discussing Oswald’s magnificentlyrapid trip from the Depository to his roominghouse, gave the namfe of the driver of thetaxi Oswald took from the bus station to thepoint five blocks from his home as DarrylClick. Lane, carrying on a private investiga¬tion, consulted both Teamsters’ Union Local745, which recently organized Dallas taxi-drivers, and the personnel office of the CityTransportation Co., a Dallas taxi monopoly.Neither reported any record of a DarrylClick’s driving a taxi in Dallas.*AVERAGE MARKSMAN'Laurence Stern and Alfred E. Lew’is, writ¬ing in the December 1 Washington Post, indi¬cate Oswald was only an ‘‘average marks¬man while in the Marine Corps. The NewYork Times last November 25 reported “agroup of the nation’s most knowledgeablegun experts, meeting in Maryland at the timeof the shooting, agreed that, considering thegun, the distance, the angle and the motionof the President’s car, (about 20 yards persecond) the assassin was either an exceptionalmarksman or fantastically lucky in placinghis shots.”In Vienna, the Olympics champion shot,Hubert Hammerer commented that the initialshot could have been made under the condi¬tions in Dallas when President Kennedy wasshot, but considered it unlikely that one mancould have aimed the heavy caliber rifle,fired, pulled back the bolt, ejected the spentshell, reloaded closing the bolt and releasingan automatic safety, aimed, fired again pullingback the bolt ejecting the shell, reloaded,reaimed and fired at his increasingily distantand by now rapidly accelerating target infive and one-half brief seconds.Apparently Oswald w’ould have to have beena crack shot to have killed the President. TheNew Republic again points out that Oswaldcould have improved with practice since hismilitary service. Indeed, Oswald had been"seen’’ at a Dallas rifle range. One man whohad “seen” Oswald at the range had “seen”the suspect drive up “in a battered car.”Harold Feldman of the Nation (Jan. 27) as¬serts that Oswald never learned to drive aswell as a friend of Oswald’s wife, who triedto teach him but failed. A machinist, MalcumBrice, who said he had looked through thetelecopic sight of Oswald’s rifle at the range,has now been asked to keep silent by theFBI, Feldman added in his Nation article.Reporters and hundreds of witnesses heardthe three shots. Lane’s brief for Oswald in¬cludes a statement that four DALLASMORNING NEWS reporters standing betweenthe Texas School Book Depository and a rail¬way overpass directly in front of the Presi¬dent’s car at the time of the assassinationsaid the shots sounded as if they came di¬rectly from the overpass. Lane adds thatwitnesses saw a motorcycle policeman raceup an embankment in the direction of theoverpass in pursuit of two people fleeing itimmediately after the assassination. The re¬port, states Lane, was never followed upafter the arrest of Oswald.THE WOUNDSFirst reports indicated that the Presidentwas shot both from the front and back; hesustained a wound in the back of the head,the bullet having exited, and a wound justbelow the Adam’s apple. Doctors at Park¬land Hospital to which the stricken Presidentwas taken said the second wound enteredfrom the front and ranged downward into thechest; it did not exit. The angle at whichthe car was moving and the forward-facingposition of the President shown in films ofthe assassination make it impossible for sucha wound to have come from anywhere butthe front, eliminating the Depository andOswald.Thus the possibility arises that Oswald wasnot alone, since all the shots were not firedfrom the Depository, but from the crowded,unguarded overpass.A news leak from the FBI a month afterthe assassination indicated that the wound inthe President’s neck was actually an exitwound. The leak hinted that doctors perform¬ing an autopsy on the late President at Be-thesda Naval Hospital discovered the woundwas caused by a fragment of the bullet thathad entered the President’s skull from therear and split in half while ploughing throughhis brain. Of the other two, one was supposedto have hit Kennedy in the back and theother wounded Governor Connally.Richard Dudman of the St. Louis Post-Dispatch has recently reported that Dr.Robert C. McClelland of Parkland Hospital,when told of the Bethesda autopsy, remarkedthat he and his colleagues who had initially examined Kennedy still think the neck woundwas caused by a bullet’s entery.PALM PRINTSEvidence presented by Wade against Os¬wald consists in part of palmprints similarto his in the murder room, and Oswald’swife’s report that her husband’s rifle wasmissing the morning of the assassination.Since Oswald did work in the building, thereis no reason why the prints should not havebeen present.Felman in his Nation article indicates thatthe report of the missing rifle, (an FBInewsleak) has been disclaimed by its source.Even so, says the New Republic, Dallas po¬lice have stated that such evidence would nothave been admissable in the Texas trial ofOswald.Finally, Dallas police have reported thatOswald had, prior to the Presidential trip,applied few jobs at several buildings alongthe parade route for the purpose of securinga place from which to shoot. Oswald hadbeen actually on the job at the Depositorysince October 3, 1963.If a man could have been selected fromall the occupants of the City of Dallas onNovember 22, 1963 as most likely to kill thePresident of the United States, it would havebeen Lee Harvey Oswald. The FBI andSecret Service, as a matter of procedure,cooperate in picking such men from areasthe president plans to visit. Before the Presi¬dent’s trip to Dallas, the FBI gave the SecretService a “risk list” of suspicious individualsin the vicinity. The NEW YORK TIMES ofDecember 10, 1963, reported that Oswald’sname had been missing from the list.Lee Oswald had been court-martialed twiceas a Marine. He defected to the Soviet Unionsome years ago ana renounced his Americancitizenship. He was active in a pro CastroFair Play for Cuba Committee. Oswald hadbeen arrested a few months earlier for dis¬tributing subversive leaflets. He worked onthe presidntial parade route. Yet, he w;as noton the FBI risk list.FBI FILESOne explanation may be that the FBI justwas not aware of his presence in Dallas, hislocation, or his history: The facts abovemay have been discovered only after Oswaldbecame an assassination suspect. J. EdgarHoover’s august organization may have madeone error of omission in its manifold investi¬gations which eventually proved disastrous.This seems unlikely since Michael Paine, whowith his wife helped take care of the twoOswald children, “claimed FBI agents hadvisited Oswald more than one time after hereturned to Dallas from a recent trip toMexico City” Nation, January 27).The Philadelphia Inquirer reported on De¬cember 8, in reference to reports that the FBIhad approached Oswald for recruitment.“An FBI attempt to recruit Oswald asan informant, an informed law enforcementofficial said, was made in September justafter he had moved to Dallas.“Oswald’s mother said an ‘agent namedHosty’ came to (the rooming house Oswaldoccupied) and talked to the young man atlength in his car.“An FBI agent named Joseph Hosty han¬dles investigations of subversives for theDallas Field Office.“The source said he did not know if theFBI succeeded in hiring Oswald; and thefederal agency would not discuss the matter.”It is also apparent that the CIA had agood deal of information about Oswald, forOswald was known to have borrowed moneyfrom the U.S. Embassy in Moscow when hedecided to return home.The U.S. State Department is known forits reluctance to grant visas and passportsto radical individuals. Yet, Oswald, havingrenounced his American citizenship, pledgedallegiance to the Soviet Union, and havingbeen a declared Marxist, was granted a visato the U.S. in less than a day along with aloan to return to America. No, it is not likelythat the FBI had missed Oswald. A file evenexists on Oswald’s recent trip to Mexicoin the FBI’s records, a very unusual pro¬cedure for a trip.It is more likely that the FBI knew aboutOswald, but either thought he did not belongon the risk list, or did not put him on it foranother reason known only to the super-secretagency: The latter seems more probable.ROLE OF MASS MEDIAIn the opinion of the American Civil Liber¬ties Union (ACLU), “Lee Harvey Oswald,had he lived, would have been deprived ofall opportunity to receive a fair trial by theconduct of police and prosecuting officials inDallas under pressure from the public andthe news media.”The ACLU statement adds that from themoment of his arrest until his murder two days later, Oswald was convicted many timesby the mass media. “Time and again, highranking police and prosecution officials statedtheir complete satisfaction that Oswald wasthe assassin,” reads the ACLU statement.“As the officials uncovered one piece of evi¬dence after another, the results were broad¬cast to the public,” the statement continues.(Civil Liberties, Jan. 1964).So much of this evidence has now provedinconclusive. Dallas officials announced themurder weapon had been traced to Oswald,v but the rifle’s make was not announced untilafter the police had checked and found thatan Italian Mannlicher-Carcano had been or¬dered by Oswald from a Chicago mail-orderhouse some months earlier. Previously, theweapon had been reported as both an En¬field and Mauser. Oswald’s palmprints foundin so unlikely a place as the building wherehe worked and his incriminating subversivebackground added up to damnation in thepress and Dallas community.The ACLU points out that it would havebeen nearly impossible to have found twelvepeople in the United States able to decide onan unbiased verdict in the Oswald assassina¬tion case. In addition, the ACLU discussesthe legal implication of Oswald’s pre-trial bytelevision ACLU and calls attention to a re¬cently established judicial precedent: (CivilLiberties, Jan. 1964.)“Not'six months ago. the Supreme Court ofthe United States in Rideau vs. Louisiana re¬versed a conviction in Txniisiana because of atwenty minute interview between the de¬fendant and the sheriff in which the defendantadmitted committing the crime.” The Su¬preme Court ruled in reversing Rideau’ssubsequent conviction that the interviewhad been carried out with the “activecooperation and participation of the local lawenforcement officers.” The court reasoned:“For anyone who has ever watched tele¬vision, the conclusion cannot be avoided thatthis spectable, to the tens of thousands ofviewers, in a very real sense, was Rideau’strial—at which he pleaded guilty to murder.Any subsequent court proceedings in a com¬munity so previously exposed to such aspectacle could be but a hollow formality.ACLU comments that Oswald’s trial wouldhave been a similar “hollow formality,” andthat had Oswald lived to stand trial and beenconvicted, “the courts would very likely hav ereversed the conviction because of the pre¬judicial pre-trial publicity.”Finally, the complacency of the Dallas po¬lice is reprehensible. Not only was their pre¬judicial garralousness matched only by theFBI’s reticense, but their carelessness ledto Jack Ruby's murder of Oswald, a murderhaving the effect of a one-man lynching. TheDallas police whose duty it was to guardOswald never searched Ruby for a concealedweapon he was known to carry. Ruby statedin an interview far the Chicago Daily Newsthat before the time he drew his gun to killOswald and actually pulled the trigger, “they(the police) could have blown my head off.”The police didn’t, Oswald is dead, and manyquestions remain unresolved.Jack Ruby’s murder of Oswald not onlydenied Oswald a fair trial, but destroyed thebest opportunity of the American people tolearn all that was known about the assassina¬tion and all those involved. The WarrenCommission must investigate more objectivelythan it appears to be doing. It should makeits own investigation and allow cross-exami¬nation of witnesses rather than follow theFBI’s report which already assumes Oswald,and Oswald alone, assassinated PresidentKennedy.The Warren Commission must prove be¬yond doubt that Oswald indeed murder, IPresident Kennedy, or request the pro; ragencies to seek the actual assassin. To ,. ithe former, the Commission must pre tmore evidence than it has now. The Ameri a ipeople have the right to know this eviden t.Oswald is dead, and no more harm can b?done to him.The possibility of Oswald’s being an em¬ployee of an agency of the United Statesgovernment whose chief executive he r !-ledgedly killed must be either confirmed ordenied beyond a doubt—beyond the dot: tgenerated by Oswald’s dealings with the C Ain the Soviet Union and contacts with theFBI in this country. All the implications mustbe examined.In conclusion, as much justice as possib’omust be rendered to Lee Harvey Oswald,even if he did commit the century’s mo tdastardly crime.

The students actas clerks to practicing civil rightslawyers.4 The emphasis of the conferencewill be the education of lawyers inthe problems of civil rights, bothpresent problems and possible fu¬ture problems. An example of thetype of problem which will be dis¬cussed is as follows: When a six¬teen year old girl was arrested chia sit-in in Louisiana, a juvenilecourt committed her to a reforma¬tory for the remainder of her mi¬nority, that is, until she reaches agetwenty-one. Adult sit-ins got oneyear for the same offense. Appealfrom the juvenile court is allowedbut does not stay the sentence. Tliejuvenile will thus remain in the re¬formatory until her case is re¬versed on appeal or until agetwenty-one, whichever comes first. St. Louis, Mo. (IP)—Rec¬ognition will be soon deniedto any Washington Univer¬sity organization which dis¬criminates on the basis of clauseswhich prohibit the selection of mem¬bers with regard to race, creed, orcolor, according to a recently re-leased statement by ChancellorThomas H. Eliot. Excerpts from thestatement follow:“Implementation of this policy isdelegated to the Board of StudentAffairs because, ‘The Board of Direc¬tors felt that as this resolution dealswith student organizations, it shouldbe enforced by a group with somestudent representation.’ The resolu¬tion is similar to the action taken atmany other universities where it hasbeen quite effective.“The Board of Student Affairs isnow obliged to draft a resolution,and set a deadline for the removal ofany existing discriminatory clauses.That deadline may be this June ornext June, but I doubt that it will beany later.“I am aware that we can’t legislatepersonal preference, but perhaps thefact that this freedom of associationis clearly University policy, may make religious or racial prejudiceunpopular.”According to Dean of StudentsArno Haack, chairman of the Boardof Student Affairs, a few steps willbe taken before the Board takes theresolution under consideration. “Iwill ask the Interfraternity Counciland the Pan Hellenic Council to dis¬cuss the resolution, and then reporton their discussions to the Board.“I will suggest full exploration ofthe subject in order that we maysurvey all possibilities of constructiveaction, and take those courses ofaction which appear to be most likely to achieve the goal that the Univer¬sity position calls for—optimum free¬dom for the fullest possible individu¬al and group self-determination. a“The reason that I like this ap4proach is that I realize that we can tlegislate righteousness. This is amuch bigger issue than just the issueof discrimination — the goal of theUniversity is to cause real issues toprevail. We have grown up in an?isolated world in which we reject the?unfamiliar. When we come touniversity community, we enternew dimension. The studentgrow into this new dimension.”State investigates collegeDoes the time college presidentsdevote to private interests detractfrom their devotion to campus du¬ties? A resolution calling for a specialHouse committee to determine theanswer to this problem was intro¬duced last week in the MichiganHouse of Representatives and maybe voted on next week.The resolution states that “Themembers of the House of Represen¬tatives have been informed thatvarious presidents of our state-sup¬ported colleges and universities are indulging in outsideing on boards of directors otcorporations, businessand financial institutions. It is atinct possibility that such collegepresidents could find themselvesa position of conflict of interest.”Passage of the resolution wouldauthorize the committee to “.minister oaths, subpoena witnessesand examine books and records ofany persons, partnerships of corpora¬tions involved in a matter properlybelore the committee.”DEVELOPMENT OFMANAGEMENT!IS OUR MOSlIMPORTANT!FUNCTION! At the 1963 stockholders’ meeting, Arjay R. Miller, President ofFord Motor Company, emphasized the Company’s far-sighted recruit¬ment program and its accent on developing management talent:“Obviously, our long-run future will he determined by the develop¬ment of our management. Here, every one of us—at all levels ofsupervision—recognizes this as his most important function. Since 191G,the Company has recruited widely varied talent—talent that can Ih>blended to give us the required combination of tight administration andcreative scope.“Under a carefully conceived management development program, we try torecruit the best personnel available, both in training and experience. Once weget them, we have a program for giving them varied opportunities and increasingresponsibility. This program is in force in all parts of the Company —in manufactur¬ing, finance, styling, engineering and marketing.“The program is paying off. We have developed a real depth of management talentin the Company, and we are dedicated to seeing it continued and reinforced. Becauseof this, I feel not only very fortunate in being associated with this managementgroup, but also very confident of its long-run success. We know our goals and how toachieve them.”in1230 EAST 63rd STREETFA 4 6360 • 363 4353 Those interested in a career with a future are invited to register at the Placement Officefor an interview with Ford Motor Company representatives, who will be on campus soon.

We spend prudently; we budget diligently. Yet, despiteour wise precautions, we are always running short. Why? Be¬cause there is one item of expense that we consistently under¬estimate—the cost of travelling home for weekends.Let us take the typical case of Basil Metabolism, a sophomoreat UCLA majoring in avocados. Basil, a resident of Bangor,Maine, loved to go home each weekend to play with his faithfuldog, Spot. What joy, what wreathed smiles, when Basil andS|)ot were re-united! Basil would leap into his dogcart, andSpot, a genuine Alaskan huskv, would pull Basil all over Bangor,Maine—Basil calling cheery halloos to the townfolk, Spotwagging his curly tail.But the cost, alas, of travelling from UCLA to Bangor, Maine,ran to $400 a week, and Basil’s father, alas, earned only ameagre salary as a meter-reader for the Bangor water depart¬ment. So, alas, after six months Basil’s father told Basil hecould raise no more money; he had already sold everything hef .vned, including the flashlight he used to read ifieters.Basil returned to California to ponder his dilemma. Onesolution occurred to him—to ship Spot to UCLA and keep himin his room—but Basil had to abandon the notion because ofhis roommate, G. Fred Sigafoos, who was, alas, allergic to doghair.Then another idea came to Basil—a stroke of genius, youmight call it. He would buy a Mexican hairless chihuahua!Thus he would have a dog to pull him around, and G. Fred’sallergy would be undisturbed.The results, alas, were not all Basil had hoped. The chihua¬hua, alas, was unable to pull Basil in the dogcart, no matterhow energetically he beat the animal.Defeated again, Basil sat down with G. Fred, his roommate,•to smoke a Marll>oro Cigarette and seek a new answer to theproblem. Together they smoked and thought and—Eureka! —an answer quickly appeared. (I do not suggest, mark you, thatMarlboro Cigarettes are an aid to cerebration. All T say aboutMarlboros is that they taste good and are made of fine tobaccosand pure white filters and come in soft pack or Flip Top box.)Well, sir, Basil and G. Fred got a great idea. Actually, theidea was G. Fred’s, who happened to be majoring in genetics.Why not, said G. Fred, cross-breed the chihuahua with a GreatDane and thus produce an animal sturdy enough to pull a dog¬cart?It was, alas, another plan doomed to failure. The cross-breed¬ing was done, but the result (this is very difficult to explain) wasa raccoon.But there is, I am pleased to report, a happy ending to thisheart-rending tale. It seems that Basil’s mother (this is also verydifficult to explain) is a glamorous blond aged 19 years. Oneday she was spotted by a talent scout in Bangor, Maine, andwas signed to a fabulous movie contract, and the entire familymoved to California and bought Bel Air, and today one of themost endearing sights to be seen on the entire Pacific Coast isSpot pulling Basil down Sunset Boulevard—Basil cheering andSj)ot wagging. Basil’s mother is also happy, making glamorousmovies all day long, and Basil’s father is likewise content, sit¬ting at home and reading the water meter. 0 i»0i m« shuim»«* * *Pacific Coast.

The legislatormight remove the prosecuting attor¬neys from the election ballot. Thecitizen might spend more time inaffairs of government.”In commenting on Sowle’s sugges¬tion of raising penalties for syndicatecrimes, Kurland asserted that thiswas not the answer.
