'Fixer
By T. EDWARD HEARNE
Collegiate PressService
Second of a two parts
BUDAPEST, Hungary - The
m~ost important decisions in
film-making depend on two or
three personalities: chiefly the
director and scriptwriter, and
one or two principle actors..'
These are the architects of the
filmn business.
On a typical day of shooting
at M-G-M's -The Fixer produc-
tion, you will find John Fran-
kenheimer sitting in his leather
director's chair. He will seem
to have little connection with
the frantic activity going on
around him, although a con-
stant stream of his staff come
to him for decisions about a'
particular camera angle or
which objective to use for a
particular shot.
"The biggest problems con-
nected with this film were in
the casting," he said. "Once I
had the right actors, the rest is
simply getting them to do the

dynamic duo

Senate to take action
on appropriations billl

part the way I want them to,
which isn't at all hard if
they're the right people in the
first place."
The screenwriter D a 1 t o n
Trumbo is in this picture the
other important architect. He
is faced not only with transfer-
inV Bernard Malamud's novel
into a different medium but
also with the day-to-day revi-
sions on the set, changing, pol-
ishing and enlarging the script
as the filming proceeds.
Trumbo is one of Hollywood's
most prolific writers, although
many of his achievements he
doesn't talk about since they
were written under pseudonyms
during the bleak years of his
ostracism. Trumbo was one of
the "unfriendly ten," the group
of Hollywood writers blacklisted
in 1947 after their appearan'ce
before the witch hunters of the
House UnAmerican Activities
Committee.
After a short jail sentence
for refusing to cooperate with

HUAC, Trumbo found that he
could only practice his art un-
dercover and for a fraction of
his former salary. "I can never
answer when people ask me how
many Oscars I've won," he
laughed. But it is common
knowledge that several anony-
mous scriptwriters who have not
appeared to collect their'awards
are really Dalton Trumbo.
For Trumbo the major prob-
lems is writing The Fixer script
came from changing a fictional,
work to a film medium. "When
you put something on film, it's
five times more vivid than if
you read it on a page of print.
Now, Yakov Bok, the lead
character, is in prison for two
years and suffers many priva-
tions. If we had duplicated
Yakov's physical misery at Ma-
lamud described it, the film
would have been unbearable.
Yakov's spiritual life is not at
all dull, but this has to be put
in visual terms."
And how does Trumbo think
the film will stack up against
the bestselling novel? "The ob-
ject of a screenwriter is not to
be as good as the novel, but to
be better than the novel. If you
can't improve on your source
there's no point in doing it.
Malamud improved on the
Mendel Beiliss case, which in
one way or another is the orig-
inal source of the story, and I
think I've improved on Mala-
mud. Whether I've been suc-
cessful, of course, isn't really
for me to say. It's a combina-
tion of skill and a little luck."

ing which the legal staff re-
examine each bill for technical
errors.
Of the $2.3 million difference
between the Senate and House
proposals for the University ap-
propriation, $1.8 is seemingly ac-.
counted for by a wide differential
in, estimates of funds the Uni-
versity will gain through student
fees and "other income," in the
coming fiscal year.
The House bill lists $26 million
in this category, while the Senate
bill lists $27.8 million.
House reaction
warns students
LANSING ()-Sixty legislators
plan to serve notice on the offi-
cers of Michigan's state-supported
schools that they must control
unruly students or face budget
jcuts.
Rep. Stanley Davis (D-Grand
Rapids) yesterday introduced in
the House a resolution carrying
that message and signed by 32
Republicans and 28 Democrats.
The resolution calls on college
officials to "maintain order and
discipline" and expel students
who seize control of school build-
ings, and warns that the Legis-
lature "will hereafter look with
favor" on the idea of reducing
the appropriations of schools
where disorderly demonstrations
occur.

In Ann Arbor, University Presi-
dent Robben Fleming explained
the $1.8 million gap is an error
in calculation made by the Sen-
ate when it assumed all out-of-
state tuition is $1300 per aca-
demic year. Graduate students
pay more than $1300.
Other differences include $120,-
000 for interns and residents at
the Medical School and $125,000
for "equipment and maintenance"
of the Flint campus, both of
which are mentioned only in the
House bill.
VanderLaan also said the limi-
tations placed on the numbers of
out-of-state students at state
schools "does not have a chance
of changing."
The reason for adopting these
stipulations in the bill, Vander-
Laan explained, was "the high
ratio of out-of-state students in
Michigan universities compared.,to
the national average, and the
feeling Michigan was educating
non-residents at the expense of
Michigan taxpayers."
Senate Minority Floor eLader
Coleman A. Young (D-Detroit)
said he would "definitely support"
maintainance of the House's pro-
posed increase in the appropria-
tion bill.
In addition, Young said he will
continue to oppose the limitation
on out-of-state students.

that this section of Steude's by-
law draft and a section that would
override the veto power of SGC
and Facutly Senate are unaccept-
able.
Fleming said that the section
that would override the veto
power of SGC and Faculty Senate
are unacceptable.
Fleming said that the section
that would override the veto power
is necessary to avoid the possibili-
ty of a stalemate in rule legisla-
tion. He said that such a provi-
sion is necessary although "all of
us agree that the rules of UC
will be happiest for all of us
concerned if they are rules we
have all agreed upon."
The Regents approved the ap-
pointments of two new associate
deans of the literary college. They
are Hayden K. Carruth, who has
been assistant dean since 1961,
and Alfred S. Sussman, chairman
of the botany deparment since
1963.
The Regents also appointed Roy
F. Proffitt and Joseph R. Julin
associate deans of the law school;
John A. GronvallRobert A. Green
and George R. DeMuth as asso-
ciate deans of the medical
school; and named Prof. iRobert.
C. Metcalf chairman of the ar-
chitecture department.
