faculty. It was given to President<br />

Flemming Saturday evening<br />

by Rexford Keller, who<br />

acted as chairman of the Saturday<br />

meeting.<br />

When word spread after the<br />

faculty meeting, several student<br />

groups, among them Student<br />

Council and Omicron<br />

Delta Kappa sent telegrams to<br />

the <strong>Ohio</strong> <strong>Wesleyan</strong> prexy in<br />

Washington, Sunday night.<br />

President Flemming's decision<br />

came almost three<br />

months after President Eisenhower<br />

first approached him in<br />

dent Flemming informed the<br />

trustees of the cabinet post offer<br />

at Winter <strong>Home</strong>coming in<br />

February.<br />

He was in contact with the<br />

trustees throughout the three<br />

months of indecision.<br />

There was widespread disappointment<br />

at the rumor of<br />

the <strong>University</strong> president's<br />

plans to depart. Many stated<br />

that his "dynamic leadership"<br />

would be missed.<br />

Both faculty and students<br />

rejected as unacceptable another<br />

interimship for President<br />

Flemming. As one observer<br />

said, "we must have a full<br />

time president."<br />

As to how and when a new<br />

president would be chosen,<br />

there seemed to be some confusion.<br />

Some reports indicated<br />

that a three-ma- n triumvirate<br />

from the administration would<br />

fill the president's office until<br />

a successor is named. Othr<br />

sources said that the faculty<br />

hoped for an eight-ma- n faculty<br />

committee to attend the office.<br />

A n eight-ma- n committee<br />

would select the new president.<br />

The committee would be<br />

made up of four faculty and<br />

four trustees.<br />

Vice-Presidenti- al Timber?<br />

Some political observers<br />

have pointed out that President<br />

Flemming, if he takes this<br />

cabinet post, will be a possible<br />

vice-presidential<br />

candidate in<br />

1960. With the current "educational<br />

crises" a man with<br />

President Flemming's experience<br />

in that field would<br />

greatly enhance Republican<br />

chances.<br />

When asked in March if he<br />

would ever seek elected polit<br />

ical office, the <strong>OWU</strong> head said<br />

that he WQUld not actively<br />

seek such a position. He add.<br />

that Jf 0pp0rtunity for<br />

<strong>Ohio</strong> <strong>Wesleyan</strong>'s Loss<br />

Is Nation's Gain<br />

OHIO WESLEY AN will soon be a <strong>University</strong><br />

without a full-tim- e president for the<br />

second time within two years.<br />

We have been fortunate in having President<br />

Flemming at the helm since 1948, even<br />

though on a part-tim- e basis for five years.<br />

Since his return from Washington in February,<br />

1957, we have seen long range expansion<br />

and fund plans proceed at a record clip.<br />

Increased faculty pay scale, relocation of<br />

departments, higher academic standards and<br />

the completion of the new Phillips Hall have<br />

been recent achievements of the Flemming<br />

Administration.<br />

What is lost at <strong>Ohio</strong> <strong>Wesleyan</strong> will be<br />

gained nationally. Certainly commanding<br />

the Department of Health, Education and<br />

Welfare has taken on new significance in<br />

light of the current "educational crises."<br />

ALTHOUGH PRESIDENT FLEMMING is<br />

resigning as an official member of the <strong>OWU</strong><br />

family he will carry the name of the Alma<br />

Mater wherever he goes.<br />

His achievements, the <strong>University</strong> can<br />

proudly claim.<br />

In making his decision President Flemming<br />

was most concerned with where he could<br />

best serve his fellow man.<br />

It would have been easy to stay in the<br />

secure, yet challenging <strong>OWU</strong> presidency.<br />

But, he chose the bigger responsibility, one<br />

in which his personal future is uncertain<br />

beyond January, 1961.<br />

Our best wishes go with President Flemming.<br />

Our hats are off to a great <strong>University</strong> president,<br />

a great American and a "swell guy."<br />

j.t.b.<br />

<strong>OWU</strong> Contributions<br />

Look Good, But - -<br />

THE RECENT REPORT on contributions<br />

to American colleges and universities, which<br />

is explained more fully in a page 15 story,<br />

makes us a bit proud of our own institution.<br />

It also points out much room for improvement<br />

if <strong>Ohio</strong> <strong>Wesleyan</strong> is to keep pace<br />

in the impending struggle for higher education<br />

finances.<br />

Total voluntary contributions to the <strong>University</strong><br />

totaled over $1.7 million during the<br />

same 1956-5- 7 period, which is 85 per cent<br />

higher than the mean average of the 910 colleges<br />

and universities reporting. Even discounting<br />

the Ford Foundation's grant for<br />

faculty salaries, which was not given to<br />

public institutions, <strong>OWU</strong> was 69 per cent<br />

above the average.<br />

On the other hand, we must point out that<br />

the average was lowered by the reports of<br />

state and municipal institutions, whose voluntary<br />

contributions are smaller, and junior<br />

colleges. Comparing <strong>OWU</strong> to 65 major private<br />

universities, who received $385 million<br />

or nearly half of the total contributions,<br />

we see that <strong>Ohio</strong> <strong>Wesleyan</strong> falls well behind<br />

the average contributions of this group.<br />

THUS WE CAN state that the situation is<br />

promising, but every effort need be taken to<br />

see that the flow of funds from alumni, private<br />

foundations, etc., increases significantly<br />

over the next few years.<br />

. The Alumni Fund's record high last year<br />

of $155,000 shows a tremendous increase over<br />

the $17,000 that was collected only 10 years<br />

ago. But with new facilities in constant demand,<br />

large contributions for buildings and<br />

equipment are urgntly needed.<br />

We realize that the Administration and<br />

Board of Trustees are cognizant of this fact,<br />

but unless an all-o- ut effort is made, with<br />

perhaps more personal-approach- es for funds<br />

by the president, the <strong>University</strong> will not be<br />

able to keep up with the Eastern schools in<br />

anything more than dress. p.j.m.<br />

'Fever' Cancellation<br />

Poor Judgment<br />

IT WAS RATHER disconcerning to many<br />

members of the college community when<br />

the bells failed to ring last Wednesday evening<br />

announcing the Spring Fever holiday.<br />

Fraternity stewards and cooks had breakfast<br />

supplies on hand to feed 100 to 125<br />

guests. Many campus groups adjusted their<br />

schedules to leave Thursday open.<br />

What seems to be the major consideration<br />

however, is that the campus was psychologically<br />

prepared for a college holiday.<br />

Considering the other favorable factors,<br />

temperatures slightly below seasonal averages<br />

shouldn't have influenced the Special<br />

Days chiefs. I.C.<br />

Dear Buzz:<br />

AN OPEN LETTER<br />

To BUZZ CHELEDEN Si<br />

Were we in your unpleasant<br />

position at this time, faithful<br />

seer, we doubt seriously if any<br />

of us would feel particularly disturbed<br />

by the protest accorded<br />

your outstanding letter of Mar.<br />

19!<br />

One must expect to meet<br />

the opposition of social inertia<br />

and outraged conventionalism at<br />

every turn of the road to reform.<br />

Nor can one expect harboring<br />

from any but those scant few<br />

who, through years of practice,<br />

have acquired a character impervious<br />

to the insults and<br />

.abuses of the indolent masses.<br />

In regard to Mrs. R. C. ter<br />

Kuile's (Fairfield, Conn.) sharp<br />

criticism of your letter, Buzz, we<br />

can only say that, if your letter<br />

was negative her's was more so,<br />

relying for its impact solely upon<br />

the use of such words as:<br />

no real good, wrong entirely,<br />

ugly, resent, needs desperately,<br />

slander and such nebulous concepts<br />

as: certain reasons, finest<br />

values, good, original, wants,<br />

needs, surely, certainly, more<br />

and better. Such usage, we should<br />

like to point out, is, more often<br />

than not, the earmark of the<br />

emotional crusaders who, unable<br />

to attack or defend logically,<br />

delight in scare words and<br />

vague generalities hoping the<br />

weaknesses of their arguments<br />

will be overlooked (Witness our<br />

Russia Vetoes<br />

Arctic Inspection<br />

(Each Sunday the Transcript<br />

selects what it feels is the top<br />

news issue of the previous<br />

week. This week's column contains<br />

comments from leading<br />

U.S. newspapers on the "top<br />

issue.'')<br />

The Soviet Union threw<br />

cold water on-- ' the United<br />

States' proposal for an Arctic<br />

"Open Skies" inspection plan<br />

last week.<br />

The Soviet action came in<br />

the form of a United Nations<br />

Security Council veto.<br />

The American resolution,<br />

presented by UN representative<br />

Henry Cabot Lodge, Jr.<br />

called for creation of an Arctic<br />

Circle inspection zone against<br />

surprise attack and for immediate<br />

talks to set the plan<br />

in motion.<br />

Most U.S. newspapers carried<br />

editorials commenting on<br />

the U.S. proposal. The following<br />

are typical reactions prior<br />

to the Soviet veto:<br />

'A Firsl Step'<br />

NEW YORK TIMES, Apr.<br />

29 "Certainly the United<br />

States, having no aggressive<br />

intent whatever, would welcome<br />

a system of Arctic inspection<br />

with relief. Beyond<br />

that, in the words of President<br />

Eisenhower to Mr. Khrushchev,<br />

such inspection would<br />

provide a "significant first<br />

step" toward a broader application<br />

of inspection systems to<br />

prevent the possibility of surprise<br />

attacks over other regions<br />

besides the Arctic."<br />

'Positive' U. S. Move<br />

OHIO STATE JOURNAL,<br />

Apr. 29 "In proposing international<br />

control of bomber<br />

flights over the Arctic, the<br />

U.S. has made a positive move<br />

toward prevention of a surprise<br />

attack across the polar<br />

region. It is both a constructive<br />

pioneering suggestion and<br />

a challenge to Soviet Russia<br />

to show the rest of the world<br />

whether it really wants to improve<br />

conditions for peace."<br />

U.S. Pitch For A Change<br />

TOLEDO BLADE7 Apr. 28<br />

"If the Kremlin really thinks<br />

that American military flights<br />

in that region at the top of the<br />

world are provocative and endanger<br />

the peace it cannot refuse<br />

to consider steps which<br />

might reduce that alleged<br />

danger.<br />

... It would be pleasant to<br />

see this country shuck the<br />

catcher's mask and step out<br />

onto the pitcher's mound for<br />

a change."<br />

Inspection Not Enough<br />

ST. LOUIS POST-DISPATC- H,<br />

Apr. 29 The West<br />

may gain a propaganda<br />

stand-of- f against the Soviet<br />

complaint against bomber<br />

alerts ...<br />

Changing the subject to<br />

aerial inspection is not enough<br />

What the world Dr. (Albert)<br />

Schweitzer speaks for wants<br />

to hear is that the nuclear<br />

powers are ready to negotiate<br />

a suspension of tests as the<br />

most effective single step toward<br />

disarmament."<br />

DULLES TENURE<br />

Editor Batty and, his cohort<br />

Bob Barnhouse led Transcript<br />

editorial writing to a new low<br />

in their personal attack of<br />

Secretary of State Dulles. Certainly<br />

the only praise worthy<br />

the Transcript in this incident<br />

were, justified in their<br />

initial idea of attacking Dulles,<br />

but their presentation negates<br />

all serious intentions of true<br />

criticism. However, in the<br />

minds of these two individuals,<br />

the April 30th editorial was the<br />

most accurate, logical, and formidable<br />

attack within their<br />

scope of understanding.<br />

A rebutal of the editorial's<br />

"evidence," would provide undue<br />

compliments to the authors<br />

compitence in presenting reasons<br />

for Secretary Dulles resignation.<br />

My letter is designed to present<br />

the opposing side of this<br />

issue, a justification for the<br />

continuence of Dulles leadership<br />

in the Eisenhower Administration.<br />

Four broad reasons will be<br />

stated, many more are evidenced<br />

in Secretary Dulles day-tod- ay<br />

negotiations. Compare these<br />

reasons to the April 30th editorial,<br />

or look into further<br />

sources, then draw the logical<br />

conclusions for the continuence<br />

of John Foster Dulles as Secretary<br />

of State.<br />

Secretary Dulles insists pre-Sum- mit<br />

talks begin in Moscow<br />

with the U.S., U.K., U.S.S.R.,<br />

and France particpiating. These<br />

talks, Dulles says, will lay the<br />

foundation for a Foreign Ministers<br />

Conference and Summit<br />

meeting.<br />

Secretary Dulles working<br />

with the organization founded<br />

under his leadership; S.E.A.T.O.,<br />

and the Organization of American<br />

States, is developing mutual<br />

security alliances among the<br />

allies of the United States.<br />

Secretary Dulles and President<br />

Eisenhower led Decembers<br />

N.A.T.O. meeting to a<br />

U. S. victory in strengthening<br />

N.A.T.O. ties, and in gaining<br />

permission to establish I.C.B.M.<br />

this position in stating that<br />

Mr. Dulles "is making an effort<br />

to iind some new and sensible<br />

basis for negotiating with the<br />

One of the purposes of the<br />

editorial was to arouse student,<br />

opinion on the issue. In the<br />

future, however, we ask that<br />

this effort be made on a mature<br />

level, with adult thinking<br />

and analysis included, instead<br />

of an eight inch editorial<br />

which only proves the<br />

writers' lack of information<br />

and scope on the subject.<br />

Mike Rose<br />

The Transcript makes no<br />

pretense at competing with<br />

The New York Times. We appreciate<br />

the comparison. The<br />

as well as campus issues. ED<br />

"Let's hope these blows hurt<br />

says. "We've called him ineffective,<br />

dangerous to the secur-<br />

which society may be able to<br />

effectively participate in a<br />

modern democratic system<br />

which demands rational, intelligent<br />

thinking.<br />

Unfortunately, last week's<br />

spurious editoral on Secretary<br />

of Slate John Hosier Dulles<br />

seems to raise a question as io<br />

whether the writers of the editorial<br />

are aware of the obligations<br />

and responsiblilies of<br />

the free press.<br />

We do not contend to know<br />

whether or not Mr. Dulles<br />

should resign. Quite frankly,<br />

our feelings are mixed on<br />

this point. But we feel that<br />

the writer's of last week's<br />

generalized, unsubstantiated<br />

and emotional editorial are<br />

also unaware of the proper decision.<br />

Their means of arriving<br />

at the conclusion that Mr.<br />

Dulles should resign bears us<br />

out.<br />

To cite just a few exaxm-ple- s:<br />

1) The editorial stated that<br />

Dulles' "reluctance to enter"<br />

negotiations "shows his unwillingness<br />

to explore all possibilities<br />

of obtaining world<br />

peace." And yet, Mr. James<br />

Reston pointed out in a news<br />

analysis in the Apr. 28 issue<br />

of The New York Times that<br />

Dulles "is taking a more sympathetic<br />

attitude toward seeking<br />

a reliable accomodation<br />

with Moscow than many of<br />

his associates." We respect<br />

Mr. Reston's opinions, for the<br />

Times does not employ pseudo-analys- is<br />

as seems to be the<br />

custom with the Transcript.<br />

2) Dulles is failing to hold<br />

the respect of our allies, according<br />

io the editorial. But<br />

Mr. Heston again points out<br />

that "it is not Mr. Dulles . . .<br />

that is feuding with the allies<br />

against a summit meeting." ..<br />

3) The editorial goes on to<br />

state that "the secretary of<br />

state has held to the unsubstantiated<br />

idea that the problem<br />

will eventually be solved<br />

or expect to be liquidated. Is<br />

self-righte-<br />

this really the case? For if it ity of the free world and<br />

is, we should admit that Communism<br />

is not a dangerous<br />

burden and threat to all peoples<br />

of the world, but merely<br />

that the democratic nations of<br />

the world should accept the<br />

fact that Communism is just<br />

as good as democracy and that<br />

U.S. foreign policy should become<br />

one of status quo toward<br />

the Russians attempting only<br />

to contain them not to challenge<br />

them.<br />

5) (To sum matters up,) the<br />

editorial asked for .."fresh<br />

energy, a flexible and pragmatic<br />

approach, new policies<br />

in 'the battle for man's minds' '<br />

in the State Department. We<br />

object to this statement for two<br />

reasons. First, if the writers<br />

had attempted to be constructive,<br />

they would have enumerated<br />

on these changes. If<br />

they don't know what they<br />

are, then we feel they are admitting<br />

their inability to call<br />

for Mr. Dulles' resignation.<br />

Secondly, Mr. Reston refutes<br />

Dinner Honors<br />

Recent Grad<br />

Bob Hood, <strong>OWU</strong> '56, was one<br />

of four former counselees and<br />

scholarship winners honored<br />

at the 10th anniversary dinner<br />

of the ' National Scholarship<br />

and Fund for Negro Students<br />

in New York, Apr. 29.<br />

Hood is currently a ministerial<br />

student at Union Theological<br />

Seminary.<br />

NSSFNS helps Negro high<br />

school graduates to enroll in<br />

interracial colleges by providing<br />

scholarship aid. Various<br />

educational institutions, foundations<br />

and government agencies<br />

give financial support to<br />

NSSFNS.<br />

To date, 5,000 Negro students<br />

have been enrolled in<br />

over 30 colleges with the help<br />

of $1,600,000 in scholarship aid<br />

from NSSFNS.<br />

IDIAMOND I<br />

Educator Urges<br />

Higher Tuitions<br />

By Phil Meek<br />

Students should pay a much<br />

greater share of their college<br />

costs than they do, according<br />

to Devereux C. Josephs, chairman<br />

of President Eisenhower's<br />

Committee on Education Beyond<br />

High School, as reported<br />

in The New York Times last<br />

fall.<br />

With the cost of higher education<br />

soaring, Josephs said<br />

he did not think tuitions of<br />

$1,500 were out of line for the<br />

returns a student will get<br />

from college.<br />

He estimated that "a degree<br />

is worth $100,000. .That's a<br />

pretty good investment for the<br />

money a student puts in to<br />

get it," he added.<br />

Need Faculty Increases<br />

One of the main reasons for<br />

increased costs is the need for<br />

an overall increase of faculty<br />

salaries at least 50 per cent,<br />

he said. This would add<br />

$500,000,000 a year to college<br />

costs.<br />

"If all students paid an average<br />

of $200 more for tuition,<br />

we could get an additional<br />

$600,000,000 a year, or enough<br />

to meet the salary increases,"<br />

he stated.<br />

"Through their inadequate<br />

salaries," he added, "college<br />

teachers are subsidizing the<br />

education of their students,<br />

and in some cases the luxuries<br />

of their families."<br />

50 Per Cent At Private<br />

At private schools students<br />

pay up ten 50 per cent of their<br />

college costs, while students<br />

r -<br />

- t<br />

is<br />

...<br />

at public institutions pay less<br />

than 20 per cent, he pointed<br />

out.<br />

"It is essential that parents<br />

pay a much greater share of<br />

the college costs," Josephs<br />

said. The government should<br />

establish organizations on a<br />

local or state level to help<br />

them finance the college education,<br />

he added.<br />

If students paid a greater<br />

share of their college fees, he<br />

said, they would appreciate<br />

their college course more than<br />

they now do. They would<br />

take their work seriously, he<br />

suggested, if they paid for it.<br />

o<br />

Editor Calls<br />

For Criticism<br />

College newspapers need<br />

less "rah-rah- " spirit and more<br />

critical spirit. This statement<br />

was made by Maynard<br />

Knis-ker- n,<br />

editor of the Springfield<br />

Sun in a speech before the<br />

<strong>Ohio</strong> College Newspaper Association<br />

last Apr. 26.<br />

Kniskern attacked college<br />

papers for printing trivial<br />

things. He suggested more<br />

coverage of news which would<br />

be of interest to the outside<br />

community.<br />

The Springfield editor said<br />

he wished that the college<br />

press would become an established<br />

voice of young peoples'<br />

thinking on issues of national<br />

interest.<br />

Disqualification Fatal;<br />

Wittenberg Next Foe<br />

The busy- -<br />

By Wayne Lockwood<br />

<strong>OWU</strong> track- -<br />

men, who have met six opponents<br />

in the past seven<br />

days, finally have a chance<br />

to relax this week. A Mon-ne- tt<br />

Week End dual meet<br />

with lightly-regarde- d Wittenberg<br />

at Selby Field Saturday<br />

is the only action scheduled<br />

for Coach Sterling Geesman's<br />

charges in the next seven days.<br />

Disqualification of the Bishops'<br />

undefeated mile relay<br />

quartet cost the Red and Black<br />

thinclads an all-winn-<br />

ing per-<br />

formance in the two triangular<br />

meets taking place last week.<br />

The <strong>OWU</strong> squad finished<br />

second to Capital in a triangular<br />

affair Wednesday and then<br />

came back Saturday to swamp<br />

Denison and Akron. Both meets<br />

took place on the fast Selby<br />

Field track.<br />

Foul Is Difference<br />

The costly disqualification<br />

occurred when the lead runner<br />

of the Bishops' relay squad,<br />

Fred Fulmer, was judged to<br />

have cut in too quickly on a<br />

Capital opponent in the final<br />

event of hard-foug-<br />

Wednesday's ht<br />

meet.<br />

The decision cost the relay<br />

squad any points in the event<br />

and gave Capital a final 57 y2-5- 4i2<br />

edge over the host Bishops.<br />

Cincinnati trailed the two OC<br />

schools with 47 points.<br />

Capital, which showed<br />

enough first-plac- e strength in<br />

the meet to give the Bishops<br />

their stiffest test in the upcoming<br />

Conference championships,<br />

capitalized on exceptional<br />

strength in the hurdles<br />

and the sprints to pick up the<br />

narrow win.<br />

Slate. Gaiver Sfar<br />

Hurdler Art Slate and<br />

Ed Garver led the Columbus<br />

school to the hard-earn- ed<br />

dash-ma- n<br />

victory. Slate captured both<br />

hurdles and then came back to<br />

cop the broad jump with a 22<br />

ft. 5 34 in. leap.<br />

Garver, the Lutherans' fleet-foot- ed<br />

football ace, turned in<br />

10 sec. and 21.9 sec. clockings in<br />

the 100 and 220 to nip the<br />

Bishops' John Guy by an eyelash<br />

in both events.<br />

Collerman Standout<br />

The standout performance .for<br />

the <strong>OWU</strong> squad was once<br />

again turned in by freshman<br />

Doug Cotterman, who shattered<br />

his own school discus record<br />

for the second time with a 151<br />

up a third in the shot put.<br />

easily in 48.9 sec. and anchored if<br />

the winning 880 yard relay Ijj<br />

team of Dick DeHaven, Gary<br />

Glenwright and Guy to match<br />

Cotterman in individual per- - f<br />

formance.<br />

Other Bishop firsts went to<br />

Glenwright with a 2 min. 00.3<br />

sec. clockin in the half mile and<br />

John Gutknecht in the<br />

two-mil- e.<br />

Gutknecht also picked up<br />

a second in the mile.<br />

Cincinnati's lone wins came<br />

in the pole vault, the high jump<br />

and the disputed mile relay.<br />

Bishops Coast<br />

The <strong>OWU</strong> squad swept eight<br />

of 15 firsts to coast to their easy<br />

triangular win Saturday. Akron<br />

trailed the Bishops with<br />

42 points, while Denison finished<br />

with 33.<br />

Cotterman once again sparked<br />

the Red and Black win<br />

with a victory in the discus, a<br />

second in the shot put and a<br />

third in the pole vault. Davis,<br />

meanwhile, copped the 440 and<br />

anchored both winning relay<br />

squads.<br />

Other Bishop firsts went to<br />

Guy in the 100, Gutknecht in<br />

the two-mil- e, Phil DeVries in<br />

the broad jump and Dick Faul<br />

in the high jump. .<br />

The only double winner of<br />

the meet was Akron's Climon<br />

Lee, who captured both the<br />

high and low hurdles.<br />

Bishops Favored<br />

In Track, Baseball<br />

By Bob Henrelly<br />

With the spring season less<br />

than half gone, predictions of<br />

probable <strong>Ohio</strong> Conference<br />

champions in baseball, track,<br />

tennis and golf is risky but<br />

here we go anyway.<br />

Since Les Michael's unbeaten<br />

baseballers play six of their<br />

remaining nine OC games on<br />

the home field, they get the<br />

nod as probable champions<br />

and NCAA tournament entries.<br />

But the odds are against<br />

the Bishop's stretching their<br />

Edwards Field win streak to<br />

29 by year's end. We'll take<br />

afiyer and pick Denison as<br />

the team which will hand<br />

<strong>OWU</strong> its first home loss in<br />

three years on May 22.<br />

Coach Sterling Geesman's<br />

growing worries. Victories in<br />

the mile relay, 880 relay, 440<br />

dash, two mile run and discus,<br />

plus scattered points in the<br />

mile, high jump, shot put and<br />

possibly the 100 or 220, will<br />

be enough to push the Bishops<br />

Prospects for a first or second<br />

look bleak at the moment for<br />

the Frasermen, but the "luck<br />

with crowning champions in<br />

that tourney. Bill Poist should<br />

footed Astronomer<br />

Addresses Here<br />

One of the world's most<br />

eminent astronomers, Seth B.<br />

Nicholson, spoke to students<br />

of Astronomy 101 Saturday,<br />

Apr. 26, on the history of<br />

planet Jupiter and its 12<br />

moons.<br />

Four of these moons were<br />

discovered by Nicholson, a<br />

distinction which is shared<br />

only by Galileo, who discovered<br />

the first four in 1610.<br />

Nicholson has retired from<br />

active stellar observations<br />

after having spent over 40<br />

years at Palomar, Mount Wilson,<br />

and other observatories.<br />

He has made significant studies<br />

of solar behavior and of<br />

Jupiter and its satellites.<br />

He is currently touring colleges<br />

and universities in the<br />

United States to study the<br />

condition of their science<br />

facilities.<br />

Nicholson said Jupiter's<br />

moons IX and XII were accidental<br />

discoveries while<br />

satellites X and XI were<br />

found after a deliberate search<br />

with the 100-inc- h reflecting<br />

telescope at Mt. Wilson Observatory<br />

in California.<br />

His first discovery, Nicholson<br />

recalled, was made in 1914<br />

when he was involved in an<br />

intensive study of Jupiter and<br />

its (then) eight known satellites.<br />

In 1938, while most of the<br />

staff of Mt. Wilson was attending<br />

an astronomy convention<br />

their orbits, Nicholson said.<br />

The moons Nicholson discovered<br />

are estimated to be<br />

less than 20 miles in diameter.<br />

Their distances from Jupiter<br />

range from 7 million to over<br />

14 million miles.<br />

Except for two of the satellites,<br />

Nicholson said he has<br />

seen all the others through<br />

telescopes. The unobserved<br />

two show up only in photographs,<br />

he said.<br />

They are of the 19th stellar<br />

magnitude, which, according<br />

to Nicholson, can be likened<br />

to the brightness of a candle<br />

practically impossible to convey<br />

to those who were not<br />

each member had upon the<br />

audience.<br />

First on the program was<br />

"Commedia." Between each<br />

scene, "Of Love, Of Greed and<br />

Of Pedantry," Gifford gave a<br />

brief "dance-aroun- d" to tie the<br />

scenes together.<br />

Following was "Singing<br />

Earth," a solo by Gifford. In<br />

this number, he succeeded in<br />

conveying the feeling of the<br />

ecstasy of the singing earth.<br />

'Theme And Variation'<br />

"Theme and Variation" concluded<br />

the first portion of the<br />

program. This was an unusual<br />

number in that the music was<br />

composed for the dance, rather<br />

Students Praised<br />

For 'Hamletf Roles<br />

By Judy Hopple<br />

In what I consider the most<br />

professional and polished performance<br />

<strong>Ohio</strong> <strong>Wesleyan</strong> has<br />

yet seen, "Hamlet" came to<br />

<strong>OWU</strong> in a fascinating and different<br />

interpretation. I was<br />

amazed at how well the <strong>Ohio</strong><br />

<strong>Wesleyan</strong> members of the<br />

cast came up to the excellent<br />

performance of Mr. Rabb, with<br />

his experience and background.<br />

I felt that there were few<br />

aspects of the play which even<br />

hinted at being "amaturish;"<br />

instead, I felt that here was a<br />

group working together to<br />

achieve a unity and a true artistic<br />

effect. This could be<br />

seen by the fact that Mr.<br />

Rabb, despite his having the<br />

weight of the play, did not<br />

overshadow the othen players<br />

Not only does this show the<br />

true artist Mr. Rabb must be<br />

but also the quality of the rest<br />

of the cast to be able to more<br />

than hold up their part of the<br />

performance.<br />

Many of the <strong>Wesleyan</strong> members<br />

of the cast gave outstanding<br />

performances. Especially<br />

notable was Bud<br />

Blanton as Horatio. Blanton<br />

gave a sweetness, a gentleness<br />

and a strength to the part<br />

which contrasted and complemented<br />

Rabb beautifully. This<br />

is an especially difficult role<br />

since Horatio actually is not<br />

developed as an individual,<br />

but Blanton conveyed the part<br />

of the loyal friend with conviction<br />

and understanding.<br />

Ann Fausnaugh as Ophelia<br />

culminated her acting career<br />

at <strong>Ohio</strong> <strong>Wesleyan</strong> with one of<br />

her best performances. Ann<br />

came up to the professional<br />

level of Rabb with no difficulty.<br />

Robert Hardgrove as Polon-iu- s<br />

gave the perfect touch of<br />

humor and pathos with his interpretation<br />

of the vain, bland<br />

old man who believes he is<br />

counselor to the King.<br />

Prof. Donald Eyssen and<br />

Bill Zahler created one of the<br />

few comical scenes in the play,<br />

that of the gravediggers. Both<br />

did excellent jobs, especially<br />

Prof. Eyssen who kept his<br />

droll wit ke.yed perfectly to<br />

the emotional impact of the<br />

scene.<br />

I felt somewhat disappointed<br />

in the performance of Hal<br />

Handerson as Claudius and<br />

Don Jones as Laertes. Both<br />

came close to achieving ex<br />

cellent performances, but there<br />

seemed to be some inconsistencies<br />

and gaps in th understanding<br />

of their roles.<br />

Hal, particularly in his soliloquy,<br />

seemed to be striving<br />

to show the sympathetic aspect<br />

of the villainous Claudius<br />

but was not completely convincing.<br />

In talking to Prof. Spencer<br />

Qf the English Department, I<br />

learned that Rabb's interpretation<br />

of Hamlet was one of<br />

three possible. Rabb sees<br />

"Hamlet" as the inward<br />

growth of a young man toward<br />

maturity. The tradi-tiona- L<br />

theme of madness does<br />

not play as important a role<br />

as in the other interpretations.<br />

Although Rabb's portrayal of<br />

"Hamlet" is seldom used, I<br />

felt it resulted in a tightly<br />

knit, sensitive and electrify<br />

ing performance. Kabb sees<br />

Hamlet as going toward his<br />

fate inevitably, yet with a<br />

comprehension of what he is<br />

doing. He is a highly sensitive<br />

young man who feels he<br />

must become ruthless, cunning,<br />

and hateful in order to<br />

fulfill his mission of revenge.<br />

The resuLt of course, is the<br />

death of those he loves<br />

Ophelia, his mother, even<br />

Laertes.<br />

In order to make consistent<br />

his interpretation, Rabb<br />

changed the "To be or not<br />

to be" speech to toward the<br />

beginning of the play, and,<br />

in the last scene, makes<br />

the exchange of swords with<br />

Laertes a deliberate one, not<br />

the accidental exchange as is<br />

usually portrayed.<br />

Thus the entire play held<br />

together remarkably well,<br />

with a depth and a scope<br />

which many "Hamlets" might<br />

lack. Indeed, that Rabb well<br />

deserves the reputation he is<br />

gaining as a Shakespearean<br />

actor as was shown in <strong>OWU</strong>'s<br />

outstanding presentation of<br />

"Hamlet."<br />

2 Churches<br />

To Merge<br />

The uniting of two local<br />

Methodist churches will culminate<br />

in construction of a new<br />

church building halfway between<br />

Stratford and Delaware<br />

on the east side of Route 23.<br />

The new church will serve<br />

the recently united congregations.<br />

Students and faculty of the<br />

new <strong>Ohio</strong> Methodist Theological<br />

Seminary, to be constructed<br />

in Stratford, will also be served<br />

by the new church.<br />

The old St. Paul's Church will<br />

be sold. From this church have<br />

come 11 Methodist Bishops,' over<br />

300 ministers and so many missionaries<br />

that it has been called<br />

"the spiritual mother of<br />

more missionaries than any<br />

other church in the world."<br />

The old Stratford Church will<br />

serve the merged congregations<br />

until completion of the new<br />

building. The old church will<br />

then be leased to the Seminary.<br />

Dave Forry, <strong>OWU</strong> senior, is<br />

presently pastor of the Stratford<br />

Church.<br />

Faculty Member<br />

Monnett Queen?<br />

By Ronnie Ruch<br />

In the early 1900's, a member<br />

of the faculty was crowned<br />

queen of Monnett Day, accord-<br />

ing to 90-year--<br />

old Miss<br />

Isabel<br />

Thomas, former <strong>OWU</strong> music<br />

teacher and 1906 Monnett<br />

Queen, who reminisced for the<br />

Transcript at her home at 46<br />

W. Winter S't. last week.<br />

Miss Thomas, who began<br />

teaching at <strong>Ohio</strong> <strong>Wesleyan</strong> in<br />

1898, reported, "Since there<br />

were only 300 students here at<br />

that time, the female, faculty<br />

members lived at Monnett, the<br />

only women's residence hall,<br />

with the girls. In 1900, Miss<br />

Clara Nelson, professor of<br />

French and dean of women,<br />

proposed that the women be<br />

given a day of special recognition<br />

since the men were in<br />

charge of "almost everything"<br />

on campus.<br />

Prof. Nelson was largely responsible<br />

for the first Monnett<br />

Day, then called May Day, and<br />

was the first queen in 1901. It<br />

became traditional to crown a<br />

member of the faculty as queen,<br />

although Cyrus Austin, dean of<br />

men, was declared king in 1904<br />

and received a scepter instead<br />

of the familiar crown of violets!"<br />

'Series Of Exercises'<br />

Miss Thomas described the<br />

May Day program as "a Friday<br />

afternoon series of exercises on<br />

the ' Monnett Campus which<br />

opened with a Floral March,<br />

including all the Monnett women<br />

attired in white dresses<br />

trimmed lavishly with violets.<br />

The long line, led by the Monnett<br />

Quartette singing Ruben-stein- 's<br />

'Welcome Sweet Spring,'<br />

accompanied by violinists, proceeded<br />

from the north door of<br />

the hall to a plot of grass directly<br />

in front of the veranda,<br />

where a throne and canopy<br />

were placed."<br />

The May 23, 1906 issue of the<br />

Transcript reveals the details of<br />

Miss Thomas' own crowning:<br />

"Miss Lillian Austin, .chairman<br />

of the Monnett Day Committee,<br />

gracefully crowned Queen Isabel,<br />

adding a clever little<br />

speech. The coronation address<br />

by Miss Thomas was short and<br />

spicy. The queen compared<br />

herself to the princess who ran<br />

away for just one day of fun<br />

and who always remembered<br />

the day when she returned to<br />

her real kingdom."<br />

Homage To Queen<br />

After the coronation, the line<br />

of women passed in front of the<br />

throne and cast floral offerings<br />

at the feet of the queen, added<br />

Miss Thomas. The exercises<br />

which followed included drills,<br />

"stunts" by each class and the<br />

maypole dance. The mothers<br />

and adult guests witnessed the<br />

program from the veranda of<br />

Monnett, while children and<br />

students placed themselves on<br />

the lawn. After the coronation<br />

program the women entertained<br />

By Phil Meek<br />

The International Students<br />

Association is being misconstrued<br />

by many students as an<br />

organization for foreign students<br />

only, according to Prof.<br />

Eugene White, chairman of<br />

the committee on inter-cultur- al<br />

At the present time, there<br />

are only "a small number of<br />

said. Its remaining members<br />

Prof. White pointed out that<br />

although the effort to send a<br />

The Recession<br />

The United States is in the<br />

midst of an economic decline<br />

which is popularly termed a<br />

"recession." A recession is no<br />

novelty to American economic<br />

history; similar drops in consumer<br />

spending and production<br />

have developed after<br />

every period of outstanding<br />

prosperity. Although there appears<br />

to be a cyclic occurrence<br />

of economic ups-and-dow-<br />

ns,<br />

no period of hard times is inevitable<br />

if the public could<br />

be informed and convinced to<br />

take the proper action in such<br />

a situation.<br />

Isaac Newton's law of physics<br />

which states "for every<br />

action there is an appeal and<br />

opposite reaction, is to a degree<br />

illustrative of the circumstances<br />

which bring about<br />

an economic setback. For example,<br />

during the past five<br />

years, Americans have spent<br />

more than ever before. Some<br />

of the products which they<br />

have bought during this period<br />

of record spending, such<br />

as appliances, furniture and<br />

other durable household<br />

goods, will not need to be replaced<br />

for some time. A continuous<br />

stable market for such<br />

goods has never existed; people<br />

seem to buy them periodically.<br />

Therefore, according to<br />

economic reports, we are experiencing,<br />

at the present<br />

time, a marked "fallioff"<br />

period of durable goods sales,<br />

which seems to be a major<br />

cause of the recession.<br />

Secondly, automobile sales<br />

have dropped considerably,<br />

possibly due to an antagonism<br />

of the consumer caused by<br />

the marked increase in the<br />

prices of most current model<br />

cars. Many people seem to<br />

have decided to make the old<br />

bus do for another year rather<br />

than pay approximately<br />

$2500 for a formerly "low-price- d"<br />

car.<br />

As a consequence of the<br />

drop in consumer spending in<br />

these two areas, production<br />

has dropped, causing unemployment.<br />

Economic experts<br />

agree, however, that recessions<br />

of this type are not<br />

Mist<br />

"They are eager to share<br />

their cultures and experiences<br />

with the American students,"<br />

he added, "if the Americans<br />

will take the opportunity to<br />

meet with them."<br />

At their Friday night meetings<br />

in the Nurses' <strong>Home</strong> beside<br />

the Student Hospital the<br />

members discuss various aspects<br />

of different countries<br />

and world affairs and view<br />

slides of foreign students'<br />

home countries. Alter the program<br />

the students enjoy an<br />

informal opportunity to learn<br />

more about other countries<br />

through association with students<br />

from all over the world.<br />

ISA also sponsors interchanges<br />

from students from<br />

other campuses, allowing its<br />

members to know better<br />

both American and foreign<br />

students from other colleges<br />

and universities.<br />

dangerous unless the general<br />

public becomes alarmed and<br />

begins to pinch pennies.<br />

Consumer spending is the<br />

key to all economic fluctuations.<br />

If people cease spending<br />

money, industries cease<br />

production, unemployment becomes<br />

widespread --and the<br />

economy collapses. Those who<br />

believe it is smart to begin<br />

saving money at the first sign<br />

of an economic decline are<br />

probably unaware of the dire<br />

consequences that can ensue<br />

from a general tightening of<br />

the purse strings. There is no<br />

quicker method for driving a<br />

comparatively minor recession<br />

into a major depression than<br />

for people to spend less than<br />

they usually would.<br />

Some might inquire how<br />

people can spend money if<br />

they do not have it. This is a<br />

non-existe- nt problem in a<br />

relative sense. The public, as<br />

a whole, possesses just as many<br />

dollar bills as it did last year;<br />

the same amount of money<br />

exists today as did one, two<br />

or three years ago. But these<br />

bills are now lying in a bank<br />

vault where they cannot possibly<br />

help to ease the present<br />

economic situation. If money<br />

is not being spent, it is of no<br />

value; it must be converted<br />

into products or it will be of<br />

no benefit to anyone. The best<br />

plan for the revival of our<br />

economy to its former high<br />

standard is to get our dollars<br />

out of the vaults and back<br />

into circulation.<br />

Thus we see that the present<br />

recession is not an unnatural<br />

occurrence and is not, in itself,<br />

a cause for alarm. Probably<br />

the major danger of any economic<br />

decline is that it tends<br />

to scare John Q. Public, who<br />

mistakenly thinks that it will<br />

help him to ride out the bad<br />

period, into stashing his money<br />

under the mattress. Such<br />

action can do nothing but worsen<br />

the present economic situation.<br />

If we hope to prevent<br />

the catastrophe of a full-sca- le<br />

depression, we must realize<br />

that renewed spending is our<br />

only salvation.<br />

A liberal arts<br />

<strong>Ohio</strong> <strong>Wesleyan</strong><br />

education<br />

includes<br />

at<br />

at<br />

least one history course, a fact<br />

which is common knowledge.<br />

Most students, however,<br />

take their semester of history<br />

103, 111 or 112, memorize<br />

their Metternichs, their revolutions<br />

and their fraternity or<br />

sorority files and pass on to<br />

the bright world of electives<br />

without ever looking further<br />

into the department they were<br />

just a part of.<br />

<strong>Ohio</strong> <strong>Wesleyan</strong>'s History<br />

Department is one of the <strong>University</strong>'s<br />

oldest, having been<br />

organized in 1893. Prior to<br />

that, history consisted of a<br />

few courses on past events,<br />

often as a sidelight to a political<br />

science or economics emphasis.<br />

All such early courses<br />

were taught by professors<br />

from the language and philosophy<br />

fields.<br />

Prof. Richard T. Stevenson<br />

came to <strong>Ohio</strong> <strong>Wesleyan</strong> in<br />

1893 to initiate the new department,<br />

of which he was the<br />

first chairman.<br />

Under Prof. Arthur H.<br />

Hirsch, chairman during the<br />

1920s, the department began<br />

its first great move to expansion<br />

through several funds<br />

given to the <strong>University</strong> for<br />

that purpose and the increase<br />

of library facilities.<br />

It was also during<br />

period that two present<br />

ulty members began<br />

terms at the institution.<br />

that<br />

fac-<br />

their<br />

Prof.<br />

Hastings Eells, the "dean" of<br />

the department, came in 1925<br />

and Prof. C. E. Van Sickle, the<br />

present<br />

in 1930.<br />

department chairman,<br />

Prof. Eells, who is a specialist<br />

in modern Europe and<br />

English history, has been recognized<br />

for his contributions<br />

by being listed in "Who's Who<br />

In America." He has written<br />

several text books, including<br />

a biography of Martin Bucer,<br />

a textbook, "Europe Since<br />

1500" and pamphlets on "How<br />

to Study" and "How to Write<br />

a Thesis." He was chairman<br />

of the department from 1952-5- 6.<br />

Noted for his work on local<br />

history and ancient and medieval<br />

history, Prof. Van<br />

Sickle has also written sev<br />

eral text books, including a<br />

"Political and Cultural His<br />

tory of the Ancient World"<br />

in two volumes.<br />

said.<br />

The Department has grown<br />

There are close to 40 seniors<br />

this year majoring in' history.<br />

According to the Registrar's<br />

Office, there were approximately<br />

33 history majors in<br />

last year's graduating class.<br />

Preliminary declaration ' o f<br />

are required to take a<br />

minimum of 24 hours in history<br />

courses, including history<br />

seminar, which is being<br />

taught this semester by Prof.<br />

Van Sickle. This course is<br />

designed to introduce the student<br />

to methods ' of interpre-tatin- g<br />

historical works, as<br />

well as to give him experience<br />

in exploring a specific<br />

issue through a term project.<br />

Projects have been written<br />

over a variety of subjects, including<br />

local topics and<br />

world or national history.<br />

Prof. Van Sickle also is<br />

teaching courses this semester<br />

in the Hellenistic world<br />

development of the Church.<br />

Prof. Eells is teaching<br />

American colonial history,<br />

David Jennings, associate<br />

professor, came to <strong>Ohio</strong> <strong>Wesleyan</strong><br />

in 1946 and has exten-six- e<br />

knowledge in modern<br />

American history with emphasis<br />

on Woodrow Wilson.<br />

A star in basketball and baseball<br />

while attending Bates<br />

College, he has numerous<br />

civilization.<br />

Easily recognized by his<br />

Boston accent and noted for<br />

his personification of historical<br />

figures through nicknames,<br />

Stanley R. Stembridge, assistant<br />

UNPAID FINES<br />

Kappa Sigma fraternity still<br />

has not paid the tine resulting<br />

from last fall's kidnapping of<br />

Pele Whaley (above ).<br />

Consider<br />

Courses<br />

A study of proposed changes<br />

in the <strong>University</strong> policy re<br />

garding the present course set<br />

up is to be conducted this<br />

summer, according to a faculty<br />

decision during their Apr. 21<br />

meeting.<br />

This decision resulted from<br />

the presentation of a report by<br />

the Curriculum Committee<br />

dealing with deficiencies in<br />

the present course structure<br />

and suggested remedial devices.<br />

Four faculty members are to<br />

be chosen to work on a new<br />

course plan this summer and<br />

are to present a report next<br />

fall.<br />

Primary deficiencies the<br />

Curriculum Committee noted<br />

in their report included the<br />

fragmentation of material<br />

studied, indicated by the lack<br />

of connection between courses<br />

in different areas and an unnecessary<br />

waste of time and<br />

effort on the part of both professors<br />

and students through<br />

having to teach or attend too<br />

many classes.<br />

One proposal by the committee<br />

to help rectify this situation<br />

was the "course plan,"<br />

whereby students be limited<br />

to a suggested four courses per<br />

semester, thus allowing both<br />

students and professors time<br />

for more intensive study of a<br />

given subject.<br />

No progress has been made<br />

on the installation of Univer<br />

sity telephone extensions in<br />

fraternity bouses, Don B. Wat<br />

kins, assistant treasurer, re<br />

ported two weeks ago.<br />

The order for 15 extensions<br />

Student Council passed a<br />

proposal last week that the<br />

Academic Relations Committee<br />

be allowed to cooperate with<br />

the faculty course study team.<br />

for the fraternities was given<br />

to the Northern <strong>Ohio</strong> Tele<br />

phone Company on Oct. 12,<br />

1957, Watkins said.<br />

The delay in installation is<br />

due to a shortage of cable<br />

pairs, according to R. C.<br />

Welch, district manager of<br />

the Northern <strong>Ohio</strong> Telephone<br />

Company. Most of the cable<br />

pairs needed for the extensions<br />

are available now,<br />

but the telephone<br />

Welch said,<br />

company is<br />

notes and material on baseball<br />

and hopes someday . to<br />

write a history of the national<br />

pastime.<br />

Prof. Jennings teaches history<br />

of American diplomacy,<br />

medieval and modern European<br />

history and two classes<br />

in recent United Stales history.<br />

Richard Smith, assistant<br />

professor, began teaching at<br />

<strong>Ohio</strong> <strong>Wesleyan</strong> in 1950. He is<br />

preparing a thesis on Martin<br />

waiting until all of the necessary<br />

pairs are available before<br />

any installation is started.<br />

There is a chance that the<br />

extensions will be installed before<br />

the end of the semester.<br />

They will be in by next year<br />

for sure, Welch added.<br />

City Reviews 150 Years, Looks To Bright Future<br />

By Mike Rose<br />

As Delaware's 15 0th<br />

Birthday party, June 27-Ju- ly<br />

4, approaches, townspeople<br />

look back on a century<br />

and a half of growth<br />

and development.<br />

Our 'home from<br />

- away - --<br />

home' has a poulation that has<br />

doubled in the last 50 years,<br />

whose production doubles<br />

every 20 years and whose employment<br />

has increased by<br />

more than 1,500 since 1939.<br />

But, it was not always this<br />

way.<br />

Before being founded in<br />

1808, Delaware was for years<br />

a camp on a trail leading from<br />

the lower Scioto Valley northward<br />

to the Sandusky area.<br />

The sulphur springs, renown- -<br />

f<br />

'. - v. -<br />

: .<br />

.<br />

Probably the city's greatest<br />

historical distinction is the fact<br />

that it is the birthplace of<br />

Rutherford B. Hayes, 19th<br />

president of the United States.<br />

A small stone monument on<br />

East William Street marks the<br />

site of his birth. Even today<br />

many relics of the city's past<br />

may be seen at the Delaware<br />

County Historical Society<br />

Museum at 157 E. William St.<br />

Presently Delaware has a<br />

population of approximately<br />

14,300, with 15,000 other people<br />

living in Delaware County.<br />

Typical of fast growing, industrial<br />

<strong>Ohio</strong>, Delaware has 254<br />

retail establishments and 22<br />

industrial plants whose payroll<br />

is approximately $7,000,-00- 0<br />

annually, with a retail<br />

sales figure of $27,000,000 per<br />

year.<br />

Approximately two-fift- hs of<br />

the 9,600 Delaware County<br />

residents working in 1940<br />

one-tent- were farmers. About h<br />

held factory jobs. Employment<br />

- .<br />

..<br />

.<br />

in plants within the county<br />

climbed to a monthly average<br />

of 1,900 by 1945.<br />

Currently, close to .2,000 people<br />

are employed in the manufacturing<br />

of products which<br />

include thermostatic controls,<br />

truck bodies, cranes, gas<br />

ranges, screw-machin- e products,<br />

hydraulic controls, instant<br />

coffee, canvas products,<br />

chemical specialities and brick<br />

products.<br />

Three railroads, the Chesapeake<br />

and <strong>Ohio</strong>, New York<br />

Central and the Pennsylvania<br />

serve Delaware. In addition,<br />

several major truck lines operate<br />

through the city. Every<br />

24 hours 47 buses are scheduled<br />

through Delaware and<br />

three miles southwest of town<br />

is a recently constructed air- -<br />

; --<br />

DELAWARE RESERVOIR<br />

ed for their medicinal benefits,<br />

wre probably the reason for<br />

selecting the spot as the<br />

camp's site. Later, pioneers<br />

came and settled where the<br />

Indians had first lived.<br />

Immediately after Delaware<br />

was founded it became the<br />

county seat of newly formed<br />

Delaware County and was<br />

seriously considered for the<br />

i i<br />

site of the state capital before<br />

t<br />

Columbus was selected.<br />

In the early 1800's Delaware<br />

was one of the most popular<br />

i<br />

health resorts in what was<br />

then known as the "West." j<br />

Even today nearby Magnetic<br />

Springs has several health<br />

hotels. So famous were the<br />

sulphur springs of Delaware<br />

that views of the Mansion<br />

House Hotel, a popular health<br />

resort of Delaware, were pictured<br />

on Straffordshire plates<br />

from England. .<br />

During the War of 1812 Delaware<br />

served as the head-<br />

quarters of General Harrison.<br />

i<br />

,<br />

'.<br />

, f,,<br />

i<br />

port.<br />

Besides being an ideal location<br />

for new industries, Delaware<br />

offers many opportunities<br />

for expansion of existing<br />

industries, as is witnessed by<br />

the present expansion of the<br />

Sunray Stove Company and<br />

La u. .. v -<br />

r HUGHES-KEENA-<br />

the Denison Engineering Company.<br />

The city is proud of its<br />

well-plann- ed modern, and op-<br />

N CORP.<br />

erated school system. There is<br />

an elementary school in each<br />

of the geographical districts<br />

of the community east, west,<br />

north, northwest and south.<br />

Willis Senior and Junior High<br />

School is centrally located on<br />

West William Street. The community<br />

is also served by a<br />

parochial elementary and high<br />

school.<br />

Nineteen churches serve the<br />

many denominations and provide<br />

numerous outlets for religious<br />

and social needs.<br />

During the past 136 years<br />

Delaware and the surrounding<br />

market area have been served<br />

by the Delaware Gazette, a<br />

daily newspaper with a circulation<br />

of almost 6,000.<br />

Jane M. Case Hospital was<br />

recently remodeled and expanded<br />

to 103-patie- a nt capacity<br />

with both a medical and<br />

osteopathic section.<br />

With 180,000 volume Slocum<br />

Library at <strong>Ohio</strong> <strong>Wesleyan</strong> and<br />

city-own- ed the Carnegie Free<br />

Library downtown serving<br />

both city and county residents,<br />

the opportunities for intellectual<br />

pursuits are wide.<br />

i art,<br />

For more than a century,<br />

Delaware has been one of the<br />

outstanding cultural centers<br />

in the state, mainly because it<br />

is the home of <strong>Ohio</strong> <strong>Wesleyan</strong>.<br />

Along with its usual contri-<br />

butions to the community in<br />

music, dramatics and ath-- j<br />

letics, the <strong>University</strong> is an in<br />

stitution which draws numerous<br />

celebrities leaders in art,<br />

science and government, to<br />

mention a few.<br />

Perkins Observatory, used<br />

by both <strong>OWU</strong> and <strong>Ohio</strong> State<br />

<strong>University</strong>, is the largest observatory<br />

this side of the<br />

Mississippi and is located just<br />

three miles south of Delaware.<br />

<strong>Ohio</strong> <strong>Wesleyan</strong> has many<br />

historic spots on its main<br />

campus, including the Sulphur<br />

Spring and the Mansion House<br />

Hotel, now Elliott Hall, built<br />

in 1833 to accommodate the<br />

stream of tourists and health<br />

"a<br />

.I<br />

seekers and the first building<br />

to be occupied by the <strong>University</strong>.<br />

Legend has it that it was at<br />

the Sulphur Spring that President<br />

Rutherford B. Hayes<br />

proposed to his bride-to-b- e,<br />

Lucy Hayes, one of <strong>OWU</strong>'s<br />

first, coeds.<br />

In the latter part of September<br />

people visiting Delaware<br />

have an opportunity to see<br />

grand circuit harness racing at<br />

the Delaware County Fair, the<br />

only county fair in the U.S.<br />

having this program. The highlight<br />

of the race program is<br />

the world - famous "Little<br />

Brown Jug,' America's foremost<br />

race for pacers.<br />

Besides its scenic beauty and<br />

park and picnic areas on both<br />

the east and west banks, the<br />

Delaware Reservoir area offers<br />

the tourist two other<br />

points of interest the flood<br />

Newsman Fears Phi 'efts Win<br />

Dark Of The Moon AAem's Soro Pest<br />

By Eric Sevareid<br />

CBS News Commentator<br />

(The following is taken jrom a<br />

recent CBS radio broadcast by<br />

Sevareid.)<br />

This, thank goodness, is the<br />

first warm and balmy night of<br />

the year in these parts; the<br />

first frogs are singing. Altogether<br />

this is hardly the night<br />

for whispering sweet sentiments<br />

about the reciprocal<br />

trade act, the extension thereof.<br />

But since we are confined,<br />

by tradition, to the contemplation<br />

of public themes and<br />

issues, let us contemplate the<br />

moon.<br />

Public Issue<br />

The lovely and luminous<br />

moon has becofne a public issue.<br />

For quite a few thousand<br />

years it was a private issue;<br />

it figured in purely bilateral<br />

negotiations between lovers,<br />

in the incantations of jungle<br />

witch doctors and Indian corn<br />

planters. Poets from attic windows<br />

issued their statements<br />

about the moon, and they<br />

made better reading than the<br />

mimeographed handouts now<br />

being issue by assistant secretaries<br />

of defense. .<br />

The moon was always measured<br />

in terms of hope and<br />

reassurance and the heart<br />

pangs of youth on such a night<br />

a night at this; it is now measured<br />

in terms of mileage and<br />

foot-poun- ds of<br />

rocket thrust.<br />

Children sent sharp, sweet<br />

wishes to the moon; now they<br />

dream of blunt-nose- d missiles.<br />

Train Of Progress -<br />

There must come a time, in<br />

every generation, when those<br />

who are older secretly get off<br />

the train of progress, willing<br />

to walk back to where they<br />

came from, if they can find<br />

the way. We're afraid we're<br />

getting off now. Cheer, if you<br />

wish, the first general or Ph.D.<br />

who splatters something on<br />

the kindly face of the moon.<br />

We shall grieve for him, for<br />

ourself, for the young lovers<br />

and poets and dreamers to<br />

come, because the ancient<br />

moon will never be the same<br />

again. Therefore, we suspect,<br />

the heart of man will never be<br />

the same.<br />

We find it very easy to wait<br />

for the first photographs of<br />

the other side of the moon,<br />

for we have not yet seen the<br />

other side of Lake Louise or<br />

the Blue Ridge peak that<br />

shows through cabin window.<br />

Control Earth<br />

We find ourself quite undisturbed<br />

about the front-pag- e<br />

talk of "controlling the earth<br />

from the moon," because we<br />

do not believe it. If neither<br />

men nor gadgets nor both<br />

combined can control the earth<br />

from the earth, we fail to see<br />

how they will do so from the<br />

moon.<br />

It is exciting talk, indeed,<br />

the talk of man's advance to- -<br />

Eric Sevareid<br />

ward space. But one little step<br />

in man's advance toward man<br />

that, we think, . would be<br />

truly exciting. Let those who<br />

wish try to discover the composition<br />

of a lunar crater; we<br />

would settle for discoveries<br />

of the true mind of a Russian,<br />

commissar or the inner heart<br />

of a delinquent child.<br />

Human Spirit<br />

There is, after all, another<br />

side a dark side to the human<br />

spirit too. Men have<br />

hardly begun to explore these<br />

regions; and it is going to be<br />

a very great pity if we advance<br />

upon the bright side of<br />

the moon with the dark side<br />

of ourselves, if the cargo in<br />

the first rockets to reach<br />

there consists of fear and suspicion.<br />

Surely we ought to<br />

have our credentials in order,<br />

our hands very clean and perhaps<br />

a prayer for forgiveness<br />

on our lips as we prepare to<br />

open the ancient vault of the<br />

shining moon.<br />

Jazz Men Desire<br />

'Cleaner Scene<br />

Ey Vick French<br />

Back in the early '40's in<br />

some of the down-and-o- ut<br />

spots on New York's 52nd<br />

Street, a stellar jazz group led<br />

by the inimitable Dizzy Gillespie<br />

used to expound on a<br />

tune called "The Scene is<br />

Clean."<br />

Perhaps it's just as well<br />

that that particular tune has<br />

been subsequently relegated to<br />

oblivion, but Gillespie and<br />

Co. in so naming the song unwittingly<br />

provided us with a<br />

basis for a significant sociological<br />

comparison.<br />

For Dizzy and others of his<br />

ilk there existed a "clean<br />

scene" in translation a<br />

vailing atmosphere receptive<br />

to jazz forms. It was not only<br />

that people listened to jazz;<br />

they were interested enough<br />

to discriminate between good<br />

and bad jazz.<br />

Not A Jazz Workshop<br />

Granted <strong>OWU</strong> is 15 years<br />

and 1,000 miles away from the<br />

New Faculty Officers<br />

Chosen By Sigma Xi<br />

Election of officers for Sigma<br />

Xi, national professional<br />

science fraternity, was held<br />

Apr. 25.<br />

William Stull, professor of<br />

zoology, was elected president;<br />

Ronald Greene, professor<br />

of psychology, vice president;<br />

George Crowl, professor<br />

of geology, secretary, and<br />

Leonard Russell, professor of<br />

physics, treasurer.<br />

old 52nd Street era and is<br />

rightly not a jazz workshop.<br />

But recent talks with jazzmen<br />

(there are a few) on this campus<br />

lead us to propose that<br />

the "scene" is definitely "not<br />

ciean."<br />

Barry Ulanov, respected author<br />

of numerous treatises on<br />

jazz in America, and others of<br />

like stature, claim that jazz<br />

has come into its own as a<br />

legitimate art form in fact,<br />

the only truly indigenous art<br />

form.<br />

But respect for this art form<br />

: here,, if we are to believe our<br />

local jazz representatives,<br />

comes only from within the<br />

small group of musicians<br />

themselves.<br />

Bolster Olhers, Too<br />

Indeed, we have discovered<br />

that the condition is such now<br />

that, in order to have any discriminatory<br />

support at all, musicians<br />

representing the traditionally<br />

opposed schools of<br />

Dixieland and progressive have<br />

not only to bolster their own<br />

idiom but the other as well.<br />

By contemporary standards,<br />

we do possess a few outstanding<br />

jazz groups on this campus.<br />

But they are operating<br />

in a vacuum. Sure, they say,<br />

people listen to them but<br />

without understanding or discrimination.<br />

All that jazz musicians here<br />

would desire is a perceptive<br />

public a sincerely appreciative<br />

audience or, to resort<br />

to the vernacular a "cleaner<br />

scene."<br />

Our Hats Off...<br />

. . . to a university paper which thinks beyond its<br />

campus gates.<br />

. . . and to the future of America. We believe in the<br />

Up 17 Per Cent<br />

The 1958 Alumni Fund has<br />

already grown to more than<br />

$35,000 as of May 1, representing<br />

a 17 per cent increase over<br />

last year, according to Chairman<br />

Howard Strauch.<br />

"If the fund continues to<br />

show similar progress,"<br />

Strauch said, "I have every<br />

confidence that the $180,000<br />

goal will be reached."<br />

The annual Cleveland area<br />

campaign just completed shows<br />

a 50 per cent increase over<br />

last year. Similar projects are<br />

under way in other areas.

Author, Pastor Agree-Camp- us<br />

By Gwen Greenfield<br />

"I went to college in the<br />

late '20's, when nothing in the<br />

classroom or social life of the<br />

students did anything to dispel<br />

the prevalent idea among<br />

so-call- ed liberals,<br />

that relig-<br />

ion was a lot of superstitious<br />

nonsense that has little to do<br />

with life itself."<br />

The "I" James B. Shannon<br />

says in a recent article<br />

in the Saturday Evening Post,<br />

that "All that has changed."<br />

And, the Rev. Thomas<br />

Cromwell, pastor of Asbury<br />

Methodist Church, agrees.<br />

Shannon and Rev. Cromwell<br />

both say this trend began during<br />

the depression when Americans<br />

discovered the material<br />

things upon which they had<br />

based their lives were gone.<br />

The beginning of World<br />

War II added to their despair.<br />

Religion Gains<br />

OF<br />

On<br />

A few moments of hope flickered<br />

following the war, but<br />

they soon faded with the advent<br />

of the Korean Conflict.<br />

They say that after the<br />

H-bo- mb birth of the and accompanying<br />

thoughts of increased<br />

s<br />

devastation to the<br />

past the youth of today are<br />

looking for something deeper<br />

and more encompassing than<br />

material things on which to<br />

base their lives.<br />

And, some say this seeking<br />

is for more than "peace of<br />

mind," Dr. Milton S. Eisenhower<br />

indicates this idea in<br />

the Post article when he says,<br />

". . . the religious interest of<br />

the young people I know is<br />

based on intelligence rather<br />

than emotion."<br />

Rev. Cromwell says <strong>Ohio</strong><br />

<strong>Wesleyan</strong> students fit the pattern<br />

here too. He gave an illustration<br />

of this religious<br />

search as change in student<br />

response to his sermons. Instead<br />

of the worn out "Nice<br />

sermon," after church, he said,<br />

students mention a point in<br />

the sermon which is particularly<br />

relevant to a personal<br />

situation.<br />

Rev. Cromwell feels a pattern<br />

of conformity has developed,<br />

but only to a certain<br />

extent." If the student doesn't<br />

I he<br />

think he is gaining anything,<br />

wouldn't keep on attending<br />

church and engaging in other<br />

religious activities, he said.<br />

Rev. Cromwell said the increased<br />

regular student attendance<br />

at his church has<br />

lead him to believe the new<br />

trend isn't all conformity.<br />

1YL D.'s Talk<br />

Relinisn, Too<br />

Medicine and religion are<br />

more closely related<br />

commonly believed,<br />

than is<br />

speakers<br />

indicated at the third annual<br />

spring conference of <strong>Ohio</strong> Wes-ley- an<br />

doctors Apr. 27.<br />

The major addresses were<br />

given by Dr. George T. Harding,<br />

president of the <strong>Ohio</strong> Psychiatric<br />

Association and Rev.<br />

Howard LeSoufd, assistant to<br />

Norman Vincent Peale.<br />

Dr. Harding stated that,<br />

"While conflict and misunderstanding<br />

exist between religion<br />

and medicine, as represented<br />

' by psychiatry, there<br />

can be no fundamental incompatibility<br />

between true religion<br />

and true psychiatry.".<br />

Parent and Church<br />

The concept of authority of<br />

the parent and the church, Dr.<br />

Harding said, is "probably one<br />

of the most important areas<br />

of agreement or disagreement<br />

among those who represent religion<br />

and those who speak for<br />

science." The Worthington psychiatrist<br />

took the stand that<br />

while authority can be abused,<br />

". . . we should not be blind to<br />

the positive values of authority,<br />

which have been weakened<br />

because of attacks made on<br />

them from many sources in re- -<br />

cent years."<br />

Dr. Harding added, "Religion<br />

is the only center which holds<br />

any promise of unity for all<br />

people and which teaches us<br />

the ba'sic principle of getting<br />

along with each other."<br />

Rev. Howard LeSourd in his<br />

address said that religion goes<br />

right along with preventive<br />

medicine "because it can give<br />

meaning to life; it can release<br />

one from a sense of guilt and<br />

it can, with the help of psychiatry,<br />

give one the understanding,<br />

courage and faith to meet life<br />

head on and stay normal."<br />

Religion Life Saver<br />

The New York clergyman<br />

further stated that "religion<br />

that gives a strong desire to live<br />

has pulled many a person<br />

through a physical crisis." Rev.<br />

LeS'ourd added that since so<br />

much disease is caused by emotional<br />

factors, "the ministry has<br />

a very important part to play<br />

in healing."<br />

Sponsor of the conference<br />

was the Rice Foundation for<br />

Premedical Education. Claude<br />

S. Perry presided at the sessions<br />

while President Arthur<br />

S. Flemming served as a panel<br />

discussion moderator.<br />

Students on probation "for<br />

excessive absences and for moral<br />

delinquencies" could not cut<br />

any class or participate in any<br />

Focal Point<br />

Is Cabinet<br />

The YWCA fully realizes<br />

that only a very worthwhile<br />

and stimulating program<br />

will justify the necessity<br />

of rising at 8:30<br />

each Sunday morning for<br />

33 girls. Thus, cabinet<br />

meetings, planned by executive<br />

council, extend far beyond<br />

the business routine,<br />

and cover an inclusive scope<br />

of topics directed towards a<br />

central theme. In September,<br />

Mr. Richard Gay "initiated"<br />

the theme, "The Search to<br />

know and understand," and on<br />

consecutive Sundays, Miss<br />

Parker talked on "The Youth<br />

of Denmark"; Miss Davies, on<br />

"Contemporary Drama"; Mr.<br />

Peters, on "Contemporary Literature,<br />

and How it Deals<br />

with Modern Problems"; and<br />

Mr. Stanger and Dr. Lorish<br />

on "Political and Astronomical<br />

Implications of Sputnik."<br />

Second semester has found<br />

cabinet pondering on such<br />

topics as, "Our Responsibility<br />

as American Citizens and.<br />

Christians," by Mrs. Reed,<br />

"Slides of Africa", presented<br />

by Betty Smith; "Aria de<br />

Capa", presented by Theta<br />

Alpha Phi members; "American<br />

Education in the Eyes of<br />

Foreign Students" by Kamau<br />

Mwangi, Mieko Iwashita. and<br />

Zahri Muntasser, "A Background<br />

of our Political Parties'"<br />

by Dr. Jennings, and<br />

"Views of Jesus" by Dr. Bonner<br />

and Rev. Campbell.<br />

Cabinet members are given<br />

opportunity to tie these dis-<br />

Communicating Link<br />

Tying together an organization<br />

as large as the YWCA<br />

is a problem primarily concerned<br />

with communication.<br />

This has been our job but<br />

accomplishing it is difficult.<br />

Our answer to the problem?<br />

. . . This page in the Transcript<br />

We have tried to not only<br />

keep Y members informed of<br />

the inner workings of their<br />

organization, but this also pro-<br />

vides us with a direct com-municati-<br />

on<br />

to the rest of the<br />

campus and community.<br />

In addition, we have delved<br />

into the field of communications<br />

in general, dwelling a<br />

long time on the arts and<br />

communication. People such<br />

as Howie Strauch and Jim<br />

Bridge have added variety<br />

and interest to the program.<br />

Human Relations<br />

The Human Relations Committee<br />

is primarily a discussion<br />

group. This year we have tried<br />

to deal with controversial issues<br />

which we feel should be<br />

of concern to us segregation,<br />

American v.s. European education<br />

and pros and cons of disarmament<br />

plans.<br />

One of our most successful<br />

discussions was the result of a<br />

talk given by Howie Strauch on<br />

courtship and marriage. Our<br />

plans for fuure meetings include<br />

two movies: a technicolor<br />

film, One God, and the Helen<br />

Keller Story.<br />

Membership Job<br />

The YWCA is dependent ud-o- n<br />

its members for survival, for<br />

an organization is no stronger<br />

than its least active member.<br />

The Membership Committee attempts<br />

to increase communication<br />

between various groups to<br />

rjrovide a strong unified membership.<br />

The committee is responsible<br />

for planning the Membership<br />

Drives, interpreting the organization,<br />

and increasing the<br />

amount cf information available<br />

through planning the summer-lett- er<br />

and the handbill, though<br />

it also includes discussion.<br />

Cll Groups<br />

To fulfill a need of almost<br />

every girl in a dorm, we have<br />

cell groups, a small group of<br />

?irls meeting almost any time.<br />

To get below the surface and<br />

into the real core of life in all<br />

its forms. music, art, intellectual,<br />

spiritual, this is<br />

group purpose.<br />

the cell<br />

Since cell groups began roll-<br />

ing second semester, we '<br />

have<br />

heard Mirianna DeSpain enthusiastically<br />

offer suggestions<br />

to the leaders and Dr. Bonner<br />

and Mr. Morey discuss their<br />

different religious views.<br />

A Look Abroad<br />

The objective of the committee<br />

this year has been to<br />

gain a wider knowledge of foreign<br />

cultures and current issues.<br />

Students from Libya, Kenya,<br />

and Jordan have spoken to the<br />

group, as well as students who<br />

Temporary <strong>Home</strong><br />

To the mem<br />

bers of the Community Citizenship<br />

Committee, citizenship<br />

means a concern for town<br />

gown relation, which result<br />

from this change in the areas<br />

of faculty connection with the<br />

town, possible racial prob<br />

lems and relations with neighbors,<br />

high school students and<br />

the industries.<br />

Most of our meetings were<br />

spent in discussions of citizenship<br />

problems first semester,<br />

and organizing the "Campus<br />

Community Week" second<br />

semester. This involved approximately<br />

' 100 students<br />

working to help needy residents<br />

in the hopes of improving<br />

understanding between<br />

the students and the people<br />

of Delaware.<br />

Early in the semester we<br />

dealt with the topic, "Why are<br />

we living?", using as a starting<br />

point three plays Come Back<br />

Little Sheba, Harvey, and Death<br />

of a Salesman. Then we discovered<br />

how our values and goals<br />

have changed and are changing<br />

from childhood through college<br />

life.<br />

have-live- d or travelled extensively<br />

in Brazil, Indonesia, Germany,<br />

and China. Several professors<br />

have led discussions on<br />

such topics as "Russian Literature,"<br />

"Earth Satellites" and<br />

"Trouble Spots Around the<br />

World." ,<br />

Importance<br />

Of Religion<br />

Since religion plays such an<br />

important part in the lives of<br />

many people of the world, it<br />

is necessary for one to have a<br />

minimum knowledge of the<br />

major religions in order to<br />

understand better the problems<br />

of today.<br />

To do this, the Religious Beliefs<br />

Committee studied the<br />

religions of the world, such as<br />

Islam, Judaism and the pagan<br />

religions of Africa, the first<br />

semester.<br />

Second semester was devoted<br />

to the history and the<br />

various denominations of<br />

Christianity, with discussions<br />

on the Reformation, Catholicism,<br />

and Presbyterianism, for<br />

example.<br />

Friendships<br />

As 'Y' Sarah <strong>Home</strong> Committee<br />

members, we have the opportunity<br />

to get to know the<br />

ladies at the home as individuals.<br />

During the year we alternate<br />

our Wednesday night<br />

meetings between planning<br />

our visits to the home and<br />

scheduled programs such as<br />

speakers, study discussions,<br />

bi-monthly<br />

and movies. Our<br />

Sunday visits have included<br />

a variety of programs such as:<br />

cussions and talks together films, guest singing groups,<br />

Our committee's main objective<br />

is to seek a clearer understanding<br />

of culture and its influence<br />

about our life. We feel<br />

that culture is more than a<br />

study of art. Our studies included:<br />

student speaker and<br />

slides about Africa, Hungarian<br />

student speaker about the Hungarian<br />

Revolution and his escape,<br />

talk about violins followed<br />

by attending Zino Frances-cat- ti<br />

at Gray Chapel. Another<br />

program study was about modern<br />

dance, and we plan to<br />

broaden our culture further by<br />

a trip to the Perkins Observatory.<br />

The Current Affairs committee<br />

was newly organized this<br />

spring. It is a joint committee<br />

of the YWCA and YMCA. The<br />

purpose of this nucleus group<br />

is to act as a bee in the campus<br />

ear. We became aware of the<br />

need for greater current affairs<br />

attention and thus have tried to<br />

fill this gap in our college education.<br />

Professors and students<br />

have joined together in this effort.<br />

A newsheet has been sent<br />

daily to all living units with<br />

news taken from the most recent<br />

wire press reports. Special<br />
