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 />

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 />
,<br />
that Jf 0pp0rtunity for<br />
service in this realm presented<br />
itself he would consider it.<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 />
110 per cent American Patriots).<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 />
Soviet Union."<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 />

The Transcript makes no<br />
pretense at competing with<br />
The New York Times. We appreciate<br />
the comparison. The<br />

board will continue to express<br />
its opinions on both national<br />
as well as campus issues. ED<br />

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

The typewriter keys were<br />

smoke now poured from the<br />

"Let's see now," Jack (Batty)<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 />

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 />

Doug Cotterman, who shattered<br />
his own school discus record<br />
for the second time with a 151<br />

Cotterman in individual per- - f<br />

Glenwright with a 2 min. 00.3<br />

John Gutknecht in the<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 />

OC Crown-Boun- d<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 />
r<br />
Capilal Big Worry-Afte-<br />
today's win (?) over<br />
Wittenberg, the Bishops must<br />
worry about Heidelberg Saturday<br />
and ever-roug- h Capital<br />
next Tuesday.<br />
. In track, we refuse to share<br />
Coach Sterling Geesman's<br />
'<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 />
past chief upset threat Capital.<br />
Tennis Hopes Dim<br />
Prospects for a first or second<br />
place finish in OC tennis<br />
look bleak at the moment for<br />
the Frasermen, but the "luck<br />
of the draw" has much to do<br />
with crowning champions in<br />
that tourney. Bill Poist should<br />
come through at second singles.<br />
Denison will be the team to<br />
beat on the courts.<br />
Coach Dick Gordin's golfers,<br />
too, are in for a rough<br />
time in the Conference matches<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 />
in Sweden, the giant telescope<br />

he was photographing Jupiter's<br />
satellites to determine<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 />
seen from several thousand<br />

night is a difficult task. It is<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 />
American students" in ISA, he<br />
said. Its remaining members<br />
are foreign students. A few<br />
faculty members and their<br />
wives also attend some meetings.<br />
Prof. White pointed out that<br />
although the effort to send a<br />
Community Ambassador to<br />
Europe next summer has<br />
been successful, the <strong>Ohio</strong><br />
<strong>Wesleyan</strong> students "should<br />
keep in mind that there are<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 />
so since its beginnings that<br />

According to the Registrar's<br />
Office, there were approximately<br />
33 history majors in<br />
last year's graduating class.<br />

are required to take a<br />
minimum of 24 hours in history<br />
courses, including history<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 />

development of the Church.<br />
Prof. Eells is teaching<br />
American colonial history,<br />
early United States history,<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 />

UNPAID FINES<br />
Kappa Sigma fraternity still<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 />

Elwood B. S'hirling, professor<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 />

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 />

of the city with its lookout<br />
point and the wildlife conservation<br />

whose population has doubled<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 />
greatness of this country and its people . . . and we<br />

gineering time, millions of construction dollars, in<br />

the vast majority of traffic<br />
accidents, with excessive<br />
speeding being the greatest<br />
single factor. A total of 12,-20- 0<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 />

Although some students complain<br />
about regulations of the<br />
<strong>University</strong>, a comparison to the<br />
<strong>University</strong> regulations of the<br />
1930's points out that "we don't<br />
have it so bad."<br />
While on the 3.0 system, a .6<br />
average was needed after one<br />
year, a .8 after two years and a<br />
.9 after three years.<br />
Students on probation "for<br />
excessive absences and for moral<br />
delinquencies" could not cut<br />
any class or participate in any<br />
extra-curricul- ar activities.<br />
Two hours credit were deducted<br />
for pre- - and post vacation<br />
cuts.<br />
With Chapels five days a<br />
week, 15 cuts were allowed.<br />
Tables in the library stacks<br />
were reserved for the use of<br />
graduate students and instructors.<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 />

Joint Committee<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 />
programs have included speakers<br />
with films from Russia.
