Harold Meek, a French horn
player voiced some objections to
stereophonic high fidelity. He said
that he dislikes the, ultra high
pitch of violins and other domi-
nating instruments as they are
presented on a stereophonic re-
cording.
Likes 'Distant' Recordings
His preference is for distant
recordings which "remind him less
of his work."
Meek explained that the orches-
tra has engagements the year
around except for ashort period
in the summer when he takes a
vacation from the world of music
on his farm in Ohio. The orchestra
entails constant traveling but he
says that he enjoys this.
The orchestra's most embar-
rassing moment came in Vienna
two years ago; he said. The train
carrying the orchestra's instru-
ments broke down en route to the
famous city. The audience waited
patiently for two hours for the
instruments to arrive and the con-
cert to begin.
Plays in Quartets
Meek plays in several concerts
with quartets each month as he
travels with the orchestra. He has
recorded a special record of the
development and the various
sounds of the .French horn.
He has collected 110 historic
instruments, each of which is a
forerunner of the present French
horn.

deliberate schedule. The 102 mem-
bers of the convention will be
elected next April and will con-
vene in Lansing next September.
Vote on Proposals
Proposals resulting from their1
deliberations can be voted on by
the people in April 1960, providedE
the delegates complete their work
and adjourn 90 days before then.
If this deadline for submission
is not met, the delegates will
probably complete their work in
time for the November election of
1960. And a revised constitution"
adopted by the voters either in
April or November 1960 will take,
effect January 1, 1961.-
In organizing to meet this time-1
table, the delegates pass on the
qualifications and election returns
for their own members; choose
their own officers; decide upon]
their rules of order. It is likely
that they would divide up into'
committees to carry out their
tasks.
Committees Review Articles
the committees. would review
the constitutional articles as tewy
stand, sounding out the public's
views about improvements needed,
and then would recommend
changes to the entire convention.
This body decides as a whole'
what to put before the people and
how. Its recommendations can3
take the form of anew constitu-
tion or of amendmentscto the'
existing document.
The final decision rests with a
majority voting on the question
of adopting the proposed constitu-
tional' revision. Just as the pro-
position of revision may start,.
with the people in 1958, it has to
come back to them for final ac-
tion in 1960.

Religious Book
"Religion and the State Univer-
sity," edited by Erich A. Walter,
assistant to University President
Harlan Hatcher, will be published
Octob'er 31 by the University of
Michigan Press.
The book, planned by the Cen-
tennial Commission of student re-
ligious work at the University, is
to be a manual of resource ma-
terial for all people interested with
the problem of religion in a state
university.
A group of experts composed of
a Catholic, a Protestant and a Jew
examine the religious question, and
leading educators deal with the
history and legal aspects of the
problem, discussing religion as a
way of knowing, with academic
freedom and with the role of
religion in the teaching of human-
ities, sciences and professions.

"Attending the Free University
of Berlin gives one a chance for
self-directed methods of study,
because of the different ways a
German university is run," Rob-
ert Krohn, '60E, said.
Krohn attended the FUB last
year under the University-FUB
undergraduate exchange program.
This program was begun by the
two universities by the old Stu-
dent Legislature and was suspend-
ed in the spring of 1958 by the
Student Government Council be-
cause SGC felt the exchange was
not worthwhile.
Krohn said he felt that SGC
should continue ' the exchange
with the FUB because of the im-
portance of Berlin. He explained
that Berlin is the only place
where one can take a subway from
a democratic city into one run by
the Communists.
Location Fruitful
Strong political opinions, many
political-issues clubs and much
political conversation is the result
of this location, he said.
Krohn explained that students
at the FUB are generally very
serious and hard-working. He said
that about half of the students
are there on scholarships and
must work also.
"The work at the FUB is as
hard as one wants t make it,"
Krohn said. Normally there is only
one examination at the end of
four years in order to*get a de-
gree, but the scholarship students
now have to take exams at the
end of each semester so as to keep
the grants.
Lecture Courses Prominent
Most courses are l e c.t u r e
courses, with only a few subjects
like math having anything simi-
lar to our recitation classes. Ad-
vanced students frequently have
seminars comparable to the ones
in this country, Krohn explained.
There are no textbooks as such
for courses, Krohn said. He ex-
plained lecturers outline material
and give references, so students.
have good opportunitiest do re-
search and independent thinking
in their particular fields.
Because of the hard work the
students must do, there is not as
much school spirit there as there
is here, Krohn said. Church or-
ganizations are important and
World University Service is very
active in Berlin.
Well Versed in German
Krohn had the equivalent of
five semesters of German before
going to Berlin, and he explained

he had no trouble understanding
the lectures and reading the rec-
