'U' Gets Health Research Grant

Educators Receive Grant to
Continue Soviet School Study

DAILY OFFICIAL BULLETIN

-------------- a

The University has received a*
grant of $180,000 from the Chil-
dren's Bureau of the United States
Department of Health, Education
and Welfare to launch a long-term
research program in the areas of
maternal and child health, and
crippled children services.
The program will be directed by
Prof. Donald C. Smith, chairman
of the department of health de-
velopment in the public health
school. HEW is expected to fur-
nish continuing support for the
program over a number of years,
Prof. Smith said.
The award to the University is
one of the first major grants made
by the Children's Bureau.
Regional Center
Prof. Myron E. Wegman, dean
of the public health school, said
the long-term aid will enable the
University to "establish a region-
al center of research competence
whose mission will include trans-
lation of research results into tan-
gible health services for mothers
and children."
Some of our areas to be ex- -
plored, the dean said, will be the
medical and social problems of
handicapped children; an assess-
ment of existing programs and
services for these children; a re-
examination of the natural his-
tory of chronic diseases of child-
hood; and studies of the financial
aspects and institutional care pro-
grams for children.
Active Roles
Official health agencies, private i
physicians, hospitals and clinics inl
a five-state Midwestern area are
expected to play active roles in
the research program.c
The University was chosen be- I
cause of its medical and public
health resources, and because of
its existing close relationships with f
official health agencies in thec
Midwest. Prof. Smith pointed outs
that "a significant part of thet
program will entail close working
arrangements with these agen-k
cies."

PROF. MYRON E. WEGMAN, dean of the public health school,
and Prof. Donald C. Smith, head of the school's department of
health development, will' participate in a research program fi-
nanced by the United States Department of Health, Education and
Welfare.

Students in the college of arch-
tecture and design are discover-
ing that art and science are no
onger antagonists but different
ways of dealing with our physi-
cal and cultural environments,
Dean Philip N. Youtz said recently.
"Until very recently most artists
feared science and believed it was
destructive of aesthetic values,"
stated the dean, who began re-
tirement furlough July 1.
"But in the last few years the
faculty and students of the col-
lege have come to accept a new
philosophy," he added.
"Applied science plays an in-
creasing role in the education of
the architect. Students are
electing courses in psychology, in
the chemistry of color, in the met-
allurgical techniques of casting.
Basic courses in landscape archi-
tecture deal with soil mechanics
and horticulture. The design pro-
fessions today are depending on
knowledge as well as on intui-
tion for their practice."
Dean Youtz stated' that the em-
phasis on scientific thinking has
greatly stimulated the students.
"They are enthusiastic about the
new plastics, the modern com-
ponents and the novel systems of
construction. Never having been
acquainted, with the old crafts
they have no difficulty in accept-
ing the factory niade products.
When the Producers Council puts
on an exhibit, the students crowd
around the booths to discover the
latest materials on the market.
"They are interested in the
mechanical equipment that is
transforming buildings into auto-
matically controlled machines for
comfortable living," he said. "The
modern generation does not wor-
ry over the possibility that fac-
tory production will destroy the
architectural profession. Students

are confident they can design for
machine production even more
successfully than their predeces-
sors did for handcraft items."
Anth ropoli gists
Studying Sites
By The Associated Press
Two ancient Indian sites near
Grand Rapids and Saginaw are
being excavated this summer by
University anthropologists.
Work is being supported by the
National Science Foundation.
The Grand Rapids site, said
Prof. James Griffin, anthropology
museum director, is "one of the
best Hopewell burial mound groups
in the country."
Indians of the Hopewell culture
are thought to have moved into
southern and western Michigan
from Illinois about the time of
the birth of Christ. They are be-
lieved the first of the agricultural
Indians to invade the territory.
The Saginaw site was describ-
ed by Prof. Griffin as one of
multiple occupancy, with relics of
early woodland Indians at lower
levels followed by those of the
Hopewell culture. They.earliest oc-
cupancy is estimated at dating
back to about 500 years before the
birth of Christ.

A grant of approximately $45,-
000 has been awarded to three
faculty members of the education
school by the United States Of-
fice of Health, Education and
Welfare.
Profs. William K. Medlin, Wil-
liam M. Cave and Finley Carpen-
ter will use the grant to continue
research study on "the relation-
ship between socio-economic de-
velopment and educational re-
quirements in a technically un-
derdeveloped society: Soviet Uzbe-
kistan."
The faculty members return in
May from the Soviet Republic of
Uzbekistan, which adjoins Afghan-
istan, having spent around six
weeks studying the historical, so-
ciological and psychological there.
More Research
* The new grant will make possi-
ble additional research to show
how the general economic devel-
opment of the area relates to the
preparation of youth to serve in
the changing socio-economic or-
der. This phase will be concluded
next summer.
"We found motivation among
young Uzbeks to achieve was
high," Prof. Cave reported. "Those
Uzbeks who chose to accept So-
viet values, notwithstanding the
authoritarian order, have risen to
positions of leadership in the So-
viet republic. The schools have
been instrumental in providing the
native population with the skills
necessary for social mobility."
Culturally Rooted
Prof. Cave said most Uzbeks fa-
vor Western dress habits and cus-
toms although some more cultural-
ly-rooted urbanites seem to be re-
sisting these changes. He said they
found the traditional role of Is-
lam in the Uzbek society is dim-
inishing in importance.
Prof. Cave said the Soviet school
has emerged as the primary agen-
cy for inducting the young into
the Soviet social order. "The
boarding schools are particularly
effective social systems inasmuch
as they maintain an extended per-
iod of control over the children."
He noted that a significant per-
centage of the native women now
work and have thus gained a
measure of economic independ-
ence.
