TO Discuss Remariage A University program will dis- cuss the problems of remarriage on television today. The program, one of the popu- lar "Marriage" series, can be seen at 8:30 a.m. on WXYZ-TV (Ch. 7, i Detroit). The problems will be dramatized by vignettes and will be analyzed by Professor Jessie Bernard, author of Remarriage and chairman of the Sociology De- partment at Pennsylvania State University. Three professors were appointed to the faculty of the literary col- lege. Albert Heins, currently a pro- fessor at Carnegie Institute of Technology will assume the posi- tion of professor of mathematics. Netherlands visiting professor for the 1959-1960 year will be Herman Zanstra, professor of as- tronomy and director of the As- tronomical Institute of the Uni- versity of Amsterdam. Ladislav Matejka, research assistant in the Harvard University Computation Laboratory, has been appointed assistant professor of mathemat- ics. Attends M.I.T. Prof. Heins received his three degrees, (Bachelor of Science, Master of Science and Doctor of Philosophy) at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. He was appointed instructor and later as- sistant professor in mathematics at Purdue University. He returned to M.I.T. as a research associate and was appointed associate pro- fessor of mathematics at Carnegie Institute of Technology in 1946 and promoted to professor in,1951. His special field of interest is applied mathematics. He has worked mostly in problems of electromagnetic radiataion and hydrodynamics. An honors graduate from the Institute of Technology at Delft as a chemical engineer, Prof. Zanstra remained there as an as- sistant in industrial chemistry. Then he taught physics at the Hogere school in Delft. Receives Doctorate He came to the United States to receive a Doctor of Philosophy degree in theoretical physics from the University of Minnesota. As a National Research Fellow he spent time at the University of Chica- go, the University of Hamburg and the California Institute of Technology. Prof. Zanstra has taught at the I University of Washington, Oxford University and the Imperial Col- lege in London. He has been a re- search associate with observatories in British Columbia, South Africa and at the University Observatory at Oxford. He has an international reputation in the field of solar as- tronomy. Prof. Mateka, receiving his doctorate in Charles University in Prague, held the position of editor of the cultural section of the Li- dove Noviny, a Czech daily news- paper. Shortly after receiving his degree, her escaped from Czecho- slovakia and went to Sweden. He was appointed lecturer in LundUniversity, a position he held until he came to the United States. Dr. Matejka was appoint- ed in 1956 to carry on research work at Harvard University on the description and analysis of contemporary standard Russian. He will teach courses in Slavic Tchaikows ky Perfornmanee 0 es. Ends Series Andre Tchaikowsky, a. young Polish pianist, will make his first Ann Arbor appearance in the final concert of the University's Choral Union Series at 8:30 p.m. Monday in Hill Auditorium. The first half of the concert will be devoted to Mozart's "Fantasis and Sonata in M minor"; the second half, to "Twenty-Four Pre- ludes, Op. 28" by Chopin. The later presentation is a rare musical treat, as all 24 preludes are seldom performed at one time. Only twice in the 80 years of Choral Union concerts have they been played intheir entirety. Tchaikowsky himself made his United States debut last season with the New York Philharmonic. He was born in Warsaw, and at~ the age of nine, won entrance to the State School of Music in Lodz. In 1948, the young performer, now only 21 years of age, was sent to the National Conservatory in Paris; under government backing. There he studied with Lazar Levy and, in 1950, won the first medal of the Conservatory. - He then returned to Poland where he continued his studies of piano, making his public debut at the Chopin competition in War- saw in 1955, where he was one of the prize winners. In June, 1956, he entered the famous Queen. Elizabeth competition in Brussels, and again was a winner. The pianist is currently working on a concerto, and is appearing in Chicago with the orchestra in con- cert and recital. l . : " ? t ;; };:;k .. z it Ointmelts teaching and research in the field of public health, Dr. Vlado A..

He will be the first full time psy- chiatrist in the public health school in that school's history. Advances Research The appointment is a step to- ward advancing mental health Wain" Talks On Bridge_.s, Other Poets "In his isolation ,Hopkins re- fought the whole idea of poetics," John Wain said today in his lec- ture on "Gerard Manley Hopkins: An Idiom of Desperation." This lecture was the last of a series of seminars and readings which Wain has given during his week-long stay at the University. R "Hopkins was not an inno- vator," Wain said, "although he spent his life achieving tremen- dous things," which were not dis- covered and accredited to him un- til twenty years after his death. The poets for the past 100 years, Wain continued, can be divided into two classes. First there are the "modern" writers, who with- draw from society, concern them- selves with "ultimate realities,", and restrict their communication to the individual reader. Eliot is an example of this type of poet, he said. The other group involves itself with industrial society, and writes in a prose-like style directed to a mass audience. Auden writes in this manner, Wain added. Bridges, who was a good friend an dcorrespondent to Hopkins, was also an example of the latter type of poet. He is a good parallel to Hopkins himself, who was a solitary writer, with "no delings with the, mid-19th century, ex- cept that he drew breath in it," according to Wain. Hopkins created, oultof this lack of contact with the world, "an idiom of solitude, of neglect, if not of desperation, which shows none of the Victorian pressures," Waih said. Hopkins was one of the first poets, Wain added, to create the theory of a poem as an object, complete in itself, created spon- taneously, and "short' enough to be apprehended instantaneously." Lawyer Cites, Anti-Trust Law National defense and security could be jeopardized by changes in the anti-trust law's enforce- ment, Gilbert H. Montague, New York attorney and former mem- ber of the Attorney Generas Na- tional Committee to study.: the anti-trust laws, said recently at the lawyer's club. "The attorney general may seek to push the courts into accepting a brand new interpretation of the anti-trust law, under which the United States and its allies may sometime be precluded from ob- taining from some great American corporation the equipment needed for defense and survival," he de- clared. However, he added, the ma- jority of Justices of the Supreme Court and lower federal courts will consider the national defense as a relevant defense in an anti- trust suit. s1 Transfers NOW SHOWING vz =00 DIAL NO 8-6416 94 I LIMITED ENGAGEMENT! "You should not miss it!" -Norman Vincenf Peale "A colorful, exciting film! , Mark Borron, Associated Press ACADEMY AWARD WINNER! Cie" Cte Causes Of 'Unrest' (EDITOR'S NOTE: This is the sixth In a series that will explore the ex- tent and character of retention, transfer and withdrawal of students from colleges and universities. It Is based on a report released by he Office of Education of the United States Department of Health, Edca- tion and welfare.) By SEJMA SAWAYA The major cause for student transfers from one institution to another was summed up in the ex- pression, ."I was generally dissat- isfied." Questionnaires which each stu- dent participating in the survey filled out had check lists of rea- sons for which students 1rans- ferred, but "dissatisfaction' was the one cause singled out by the great majority of the students. Dissatisfaction was highest among students who transferred from technological institutions and second highest among trans- fers from teachers colleges. The second group was closely followed by the third class of dissatasfied students, those transferring from universities. Interest changes Second most important reason for transfer was change in cur- ricular interest. This reason seemed far more important in technlological institutions than in other types, the report -stated. The reasoning behind this find- ing is that "curricular offerings are generally rather restricted in technological institutions, and a student whose interest changed would be less likely to find the curriculum fitting his new interest within the same school." Low grades as a reason for transfer from one institution to another was apparently of ittle importance in liberal arts col- leges or teachers colleges. It ranked sixth in a list of 10 rea- sons, and was of significantly greater importance as a cause for transfer from universities. Students Undecided Percentages of students who transferred from each of the dif- ferent types of institutions covered by the survey indicated that stu- dents who enrolled in teachers colleges and technological institu- tions understood more clearly what they wanted than did those who enrolled in universities or liberal arts colleges. The former two types of schools lost 7.5 per cent and 8.6 per cent, respectively, by transfer. Univer- sities lost 9.3 per cent and liberal arts colleges lost 13.4 per cent. Transfers occur with the great- est frequenby during' the first two years, the report stated. Nearly 40 per cent of all transfers occur during or at the, end of the firt; year, and more than 83 per cent of the total have occurred by the end of the second year.
