The collection of the works of t0 painters and printmakers, own- ed by Roland A. Gibson, chairman of the economics department at Washington College, Chestertown Md., is the largest. Midwestern single showing of recent Japanese art. Strongly influenced by Western art, especially abstract expression- alism, the paintings, possessing strength and vigor not present in Oriental art, prove that today's art often has no national boun- daries. Past Oriental influence remains only in the swooping and curving lines and the calligraphic shapes. Movement and Masses "In," a black-and-white paint- ing by An Furata, is designed around the Chinese character meaning "negative. Having all the power and uninhibited feeling of a child's finger painting, the movement and masses of the work reflect the religious ecstacy with which Furata is concerned. Sees 'Shock' At Crippled St. John's Collegiate Press Service NEW YORK-Striking faculty members at St. John's University have charged that the institu- tion has eliminated classes or re- duced enrollment in 60 per cent of the courses they had taught. "The figures indicate that the university has suffered a massive shock and is falling back on des- perate expedients to cope with the situation," Dr. Israel Kugler, pres- ident of the United Federation of College Teachers, said. The union has been on strike at St. John's since Jan. 4 as a result of the dismissal of 31 teach- ers without a hearing in mid-De- cember. The dismissals were at- tributed in some cases to "un- professional conduct" on the part of those who had joined in dem- onstrations demanding a greater voice in the university. Dr. Kugler said that the union was going to challenge the school's accreditation with the Middle States Association of Colleges and Secondary Schools. A meeting with representatives of the association will be held this week, he said. Kugler said that the decision was based on information which indicated that the school has clos- ed out 225 sections o fa normal 379 offered in six basic subjects in the College of Liberal Arts. Most of the striking teachers are on the liberal arts faculty and taught these subjects. "Blue Calligraphic Lines on Dark Blue" by Jiro Yoshihar is not only a Japanese letter, but a projection onto canvas of the seemingly simple, vague and nev- er-ending movements of mane "Two Circles," by Onosato Tash- inobu is reminiscent of old Japa- nece folk weaving, yet resembles Optical Art, in a vibrant and col- orful Oriental style. The artist might well be expressing the foun- dations of Op Art when describing the circle as the perfect form but believes "its dimensions can be recognized more concretely by di- viding it progressively by squares and finally making it a simple round of endless rectangular pat- terns." An artist who relies on modern techniques, Kazuo Shiraga, spreads paint around the canvas in long dance-like movements of his feet while suspended from the ceiling. His action picture, "Dragons Emerging from the Forest" shocks the viewer with a dynamic rhythm, vehement reds and blacks. and the contrasting texture of the globs of paint on the flat canvas. Plastic Enamel Atsuko Tanaka creates "Circles and Tangled Wires" with plastic enamel on white canvas. Although a jumble of circles of ballooning sizes merge with bright, vigorous colors and intertwining lines, the painting is not discordant of clashing but united in a gay, car- nival atmosphere. The abstract art in this collec- tion is a radical departure from traditional Oriental style. The us- ual rigid form of lines, pattern. and light, whispery tones has been replaced by paintings of in- dividual personality, v a r y I n g shapes, and vibrant colors. Each work demonstrates the evolving democratic feeling and vitality of industrialized Japan. Dr. Gibson spent two months in 1963 in Japan selecting and pur- chasing the abstract paintings. He is copsidering leaving to the Uni- versity several paintings from the collection.

Approved: That SGC endorse the following statement regarding presiden-; tial selection: "For reasons familiar to us all, stu- dents should be involved as much as possible in the selection of the new University President. Preliminary pro- visions have been made by the Re- gents for student-faculty-alumni com- mittees to meet separately and make recommendations to the Regents. There are a few points that must be made clear now, early in the process. "First, before any recommendations can be made, we must understand the University with which we are dealing. The logical way to gain their under- standing is to study the University. Many small internal studies are con- stantly being done, but an external overall approach is now needed. "Secondly, separate committees tend to see themselves as representing their interests against those of the other+ committees. The way to avoid this Is to arrange for a joint committee to submit a joint evaluation to the Re- gents. "Thirdly, the kind of man who would be respected enough to be approached to be President of the University of Michigan would certainly want to speak Economic Dev. Admin., Detroit - 1. N.J.-Med. Soc.

So it occurred to us that we might be able to fill a few of them, if we gave the young people a break on the fare, and a chance to see the country. The American Youth Plan* We call the idea the American Youth Plan, and what it means is this: American will pay half the jet coach fare for anybody 12 through 21. It's that simple. All you have to do is prove your age (a birth certificate or any other legal document will do) and buy a $3 identification card. We date and stamp the card, and this en- titles you to a half-fare ticket at any American Airlines counter. The only catch is that you might have to wait before you get aboard; the fare is on a standby basis. "Standby" simply means that the pas- sengers with reservations and the servicemen get on before you do. Then the plane's yours. The American Youth Plan is good year round except for a few days' the Easter, Thanksgiving rushes. If you can't think of any places you'd like to go offhand, you might see a travel agent for a few suggestions. We can't add anything else. Other than it's a marvelous opportunity to just take off. 1 Complete this coupon-include your $3. I (Do not send proof of age-it is notrreeded until you have your ID validated.) In addition to your ID card, we'll also send I you a free copy of AA's Go Go American g I with $50 worth of discount coupons.
