ENDS
FRIDAY

By ANDREW HAWLEY
The broadening scope of the
student's role within and beyond
the University community was
the general topic of an informal
discussion at the Friend's Center
Sunday night.
Vice President for Student Af-
fairs James A. Lewis, Student
Government Council President
John Feldkamp, '61, and Daily
Editor Thomas Hayden, '61, were
the principal speakers. Each dis-
cussed an aspect of the respon-
sibilities confronting today's stu-'
dents, before the meeting, attend-
ed by approximately 20 students,
was opened to general discussion.
Emphasizes Total Student
Lewis, who spoke first, empha-
sized the necessity neither to dis-

Pershing Rifles Company D-3
will hold four "get-acquainted"
smokers, the first at 7:30 p.m.
tonight in the Army's Temporary
Classroom Bldg, behind the Den-
tistry School.
Subsequent smokers will be held
on Sept. 22, 27, and 29. Army,
Navy, and Air Force ROTC Stu-
dents are urged to attend.
Pershing Rifles is a competition
drill team, organized to help the
individual gain leadership ability
and skill at marching above that
of the average ROTC student.

tinguish the student as citizen
from the total community nor to
treat him as a child to be pam-
pered, but rather to consider him
as a force that is shaping the fu-
ture,
On the other hand, he noted,
the students should support other
elements of society in the search
for a better way of life and be
loyal to ideals for their own
sake, sooner than for the sake of
international competition. "To be
loyal in our society one must
sometimes refuse to conform,"
Lewis said. He pointed out the
need to "narrow the gap between
what we say and what we do."
Sees New Attitude
Hayden briefly traced the de-
cline of philosophic commitment
through the existential move-
ment to a virtual emotional vac-
uum in the United States in re-
cent years. He then described the
appearance of what he considers
a new attitude on the part of
students, and Itsospecific mani-
festations in the forms of politi-
cal and social action.
He then urged a change of the
student's commitment from pub-
student's commitment from pri-
vate to public. "Human love ex-
tended beyond a small circle" of
friends and family, and called
for "an attitude that asserts I
am capable of governing my af-
fairs and taking care of myself
and society."
Control Needed
The student, Hayden said,
should work toward controlling
all his affairs within the Univer-
sity and the public, both through
mass action such as picketing
and interaction in groups such as
the National Student Association,
and student governments.
He also advocated the forma-.
tion of a campus political party,
such as several other campuses
have, and, noted a crisis in stu-
dent governments, in that active
movements are moving away from
them to avoid the bureaucracy in-
volved in working through them
for reform.
Continuity a Problem
Finally, he mentioned the prob-
lem of continuity, of keeping the
level of awareness and involve-
ment high on American cam-
puses. "We will make or break
our generation in our college
years," he warned.
Feldkamp said the world crisis
arises from the conflict between
two basic philosophies, one based
on the individual and'his contri-
bution to society and the other
on society and its demands on
the individual. The student can
act on his own or in groups, he
said, but he noted the increasing
responsibility of students as in-
dividuals to act effectively in the
student movement if it dissatis-
fies them, because they are asso-
ciated with it anyway.

By JUDITH OPPENHEIM
Registering students and pass-
ers-by at Waterman Gymnasium
had the opportunity to shake
hands and discuss political issues
with Gery Williams, son of Michi-
gan's Governor G. Mennen Wil-
liams.
Wearing a white paper hat and
Kennedy lapel pin, Williams dis-
tributed literature and spoke
about the Michigan 'Students for
Kennedy' movement, of which he
is chairman.
The movement is part of the
national Young Citizens for Ken-
nedy organization, , which has

Loan Total
Shows Rise
Student loans at the University
increased by one-third last year to
$1.4 million, Dean of Men Walter
B. Rea says in his annual report
to University President Harlan
Hatcher.
Rea, chairman of the Commit-
tee on Student Loans, notes that
more than 7,500 individual loans
were processed by the committee
during 1959-1960. Total loans out-
standing rose to $1.9 million at
the- end of the fiscal year end-
ing last June.
Interest in scholarships contin-
ued to increase, he added. Over
2,000 high school seniors applied
for scholarships as entering fresh-
men. The Regents-Alumni Schol-
arships for full tuition were
awarded to 550 freshmen and 90
honorary scholarships of $50 were'
presented. -
In addition to these scholar-
ships and loans, the University
made 329 grants-in-aid last year
to men students, totalling more
than $50,000.

gan Citizens for Kennedy andj
Johnson is University Regent Mc-
Inally.
To Enlist Members
Williams will spend the next
two weeks traveling around Mich-
igan enlisting members on cam-
puses including Wayne State and
Michigan State Universities.
He has taken a year's leave
of absence from Princeton Uni-
versity where he is a sophomore,
to work on the elections. He is
now working "from eight to 12"
in his father's Lansing office. Al-
though he is unsure what his own
plans will be after Nov. 8, Wil-
liams hopes that "some people
from Michigan will be moving to
Washington along with Senator
Kennedy."
Paul Hell, '63, co-chairman of
the campus Young Citizens for
Kennedy drive, says that the
booth outside the gym has signed
up an average of 150 people every

Ism Cards
To Identif
'U Students
The IBM receipt cards are the
only University-accepted identifi-
cation cards, the Office of Stu-
dent Affairs has announced.
They will be official for at
least this semester and next. Old
identification cards may be used'
as aids in identification, but only
the receipt cards will be official.
The reason behind the change
is a raft of forgeries of the new-
type cards issued students last
year.
Lost cards may be replaced for
a five-dollar service charge.

Heil and Williams along with
other members of the local chap-
ters have been anxious to discuss
issues with University students
and believe that they have con-
vinced many disappointed Stev-
enson supporters of the necessity
of electing a Democratic Presi-
dent this year.
They say the issues of most
concern to the students are fed-
eral aid to education and enlarge-
ment of the National Defense Ed-
ucation Act and the deletion of
its disclaimer affidavit, both of
which Kennedy supports.
The first meeting of the organi-
zation will be held tonight at the
Union. Heil announced Williams
will attend tonight's meeting, and
Charles Brown, of Kennedy's
staff, will address the rally. "The
primary business of this meeting,"
Heil said, "will be organization
and plans for the campaign."
