MATH, ENGLISH MAJORS: Grads Sought To Teach In Southern Summer Program LUXEMBOURG ' W) - France's five Common Market partners fear that many more months of serious crisis lie ahead for the European Economic Community unless Pres- ident Charles de Gaulle's govern- ment is willing to make some con- cessions. Delegates privately expressed concern over the future of Euro- pean unity after a two-day meet- ing that ended in disagreement on a French proposal that most of them viewed -as more of an ultimatum. French Foreign Minister Maur- ice Couvre de Murville made an offer of limited cooperation with the other five members, provided they agree: 1) That each member retain a veto on major questions. 2) That steps be taken to trim the powers of the market's Execu- tive Commission, which de Gaulle fears may turn into a super- government. The ministers, agreed to *meet again Jan. 28-29 for another try, but it was felt success or failure Students See Picketing As Only Hope To Gain Goals (Continued from Page 1) don't have enough power unless we have widespread support from the state's citizens,' he said. Eric Chester, '66, chairman of VOICE, said after Friday's Regents meeting that if the administra- tion refuses to open communica- tion channels, students will have to rely on demonstrations to open them. He indicated that such demonstrations might include sit- ins at Regents' meetings, though he said that he was in no posi- tion to predict that this kind of action would definitely come about. Bluestone said that "perhaps Eric is right; we may have to re- sort to other means. Maybe it will be necessary to, have wide-spread demonstrations. It may be a good thing to encourage 200 students to attend a Regents meeting and not let the Regents leave until they hear what students have to say. Maybe that's the kind of ac- tion it will take to shake up eight old people." He added that besides encour- aging citizens to send telegrams to 'Regents relating approval of bookstore plans and other eco- nomic reforms, the citizens might even be urged to come to Regents' meetings themselves. However, Eisenberg felt doubt- ful that many students could be induced to demonstrate for eco- nomic reforms, due to the high economic level of most of the stu- dent body. Students testifying be- fore Rep. Jack Faxon's (D-De- troit) Subcommittee on Higher' Education of the House Commit- tee on Ways and Means last fall cited figures to show that the Uni- versity's students are the "eco- nomic elite" and that the median income of student's families is $13,000,per year. depends largely on how much lati- tude de Gaulle will allow Couvre de Murville. Premier Pierre Werner of Lux- embourg will report Thursday to the European Parliament in Stras- bourg on the ministers' failure to solve the six-month-old crisis re- sulting from France's boycott of the community's meetings. The report is certain to bring unfavorable reaction in the Stras- bourg assembly, most of whose members have always pushed for an integrated Europe. Prepare Report Permanent representatives of the other five Common Market members-West Germany, Italy, the Netherlands, Belgium and Luxembourg-worked today on the report Werner will present in Strasbou;g. French representative Jean-Marc Boegner was recalled to Paris last July when France began its boycott. A number of delegates from other countries complained that de Gaulle wants to set up a time- table for action on things he wants without taking into con- sideration the wishes of the other partners. Couvre de Murville pro- posed a list of deadlines for settling the Common Market farm policy and agreement on the makeup of a new Executive Com- mission to be enlarged from 9 to 14 members. France has made clear it wants to replace the members of the present Executive Commission with others who have no political influence. The chief French target is the chairman of the present commission, Walter Hallstein of West Germany. Do children in a windowless classroom learn more or less than children who have conventional classroom light and ventilation? They seem to learn equally well in either situation, according to University of Michigan research- ers. This is the main finding of a three-year experiment in the Wayne Community Schools where children, kindergarten through third grade, spent a full year in a windowless building. Their school work and health was comparable to that of a con- trol group in a nearby school, ac- cording to C. Theodore Larson, U-M professor of architecture who directed the experiment. Control Group The experiment at the Hoover School, a four room primary unit in Wayne, was begun in 1962. The children in the similar Mann School nearby were used as a control group. The construction of the Hoover School permitted the windows to be easily eliminated by simply sub- stituting opaque wall panels for the transparent panels. The exist- ing windows were completely seal- ed off for one school year. Dur- ing this time both the children's schoolwork and their health were carefully watched. After windows were restored and observation of the children was continued. "Absence of windows made no detectable difference," Larson says. "The Hoover children's perform- ance was just about the same re- gardless of the windows and their performance was similar to the Mann school children's." Reaction How did the children react at first to the lack of windows? "They didn't mind at all. They weren't even aware that the win- dows had been eliminated during the summer vacation. Nor did they become at all excited about look- ing out of the windows when this was again possible," says Larson. One positive finding that does emerge from the Hoover School experiment is the remarkable shift in the teachers 'attitude. There is no question as to their prefer- ence for windowless classrooms once they have had the experience of teaching in such an environ- ment. "They are unanimous in their reasons for not wanting the win- dows. The children are no longer distracted by outside happenings when the classrooms become win- dowless ,and besides the extra wall space can be put to good in- structional use." Larson notes that several edu- cators have questioned whether the elimination of outside dis- tractions is always something to be desired. "An exterior happening may now and then provide a fruitful stimulus to learning activity in the classroom, particularly if the class-as in the case of kinder- gartners-does not have a strict set of learning tasks. However, most school work has a definite educational focus and relatively few classrooms would find win- dows an advantage here." Windows Obsolete? "Only the- viewing function keeps windows from becoming completely obsolete but windows designed solely as 'eyes' to the out- side environment, if they are to be fully effective, obviously should be quite different in shape and size and location from the tra- ditional window designs. "Ideally, they should be ports or apertures to permit building occupants to have a view of the outside"," he says. "Even scan- ning devices of the sort used in closed-circuit TV systems con- ceivably might do the trick." Larson's experiment was financ- ed by the Educational Facilities Laboratories, an organisation cre- ated by the Ford Foundation and devoted to improving school build- ings. , "We really have very little re- search on architecture for schools or homes or offices," Larson says. "We know that the environment in which man lives and works af- fects him but we don't' know, how. Today we can design the environment we want. The sad fact is we don't know what is best for us." By CLARENCE FANTO The Southern Teaching Pro- gram, Inc., now in itsthird year of operation, is again offering summer positions in predominant- ly Negro or integrated Southern colleges. Students with one year of graduate study, preferably in the fields of mathematics and' English will be considered for placement. The organization, a non-profit educational group also offers full- year placement for holders of master's degrees. Replace Regular Faculty The graduate students in the summer program are primarily used to replace regular faculty) members who are on leave, or to supplement the school's staff in order to schedule special rem- edial programs for incoming fresh- men, Last year ,almost 150 graduate students taught in 27, colleges.
