Of Interest in Creativity

By PATRICIA O'CONNOR
The increasing interest in cre-
ativity results from a radically
changing view of the world and
its pressing problems, said Prof.
Frank Barron of the Institute of
Personality Assessmenta and Re-
search in Berkeley, California,
yesterday.
With the advent of the atomic
bomb, the power of scientific
thought has assumed an awesome
character. In addition, creativity
in personal life has become recog-
nized as good, he noted.
Recent research at the Berke-
ley institute has been conducted
on persons agreed upon by college
professors to be among the most
creative people in their fields.
Basic commonly-used tests,
U T'o Schedule
Student Visits

tests developed at the institute,
and six-hour interviews were em-
ployed with each of the creative
writers, architects, research sci-
entists, and mathematicians. Con-
trol groups were used for compari-
son.
Measured I. Q. was found to be
entirely unrelated to the degree of
originality. Most of the creative
subjects possessed high general in-
telligence, however.
Excellence of esthetic. judgment
was also found to have a high re-
lationship to creativity. Creative
people let in more and arrive at
a more complex structure of the
world, he said.
Shut Out Something
By every integration a person.
makes, something becomes shut
out of hisworld.nA constant battle
exists in the creative person be-
tween the wish for integration and
the desire for non-integration.
Independence of judgment oc-
curred in creative people more
often than in others, according to
Dr. Barron.
In testing intuition, 100 per cent
of the creative architects and 92
per cent of the creative writers
evidenced intuition. This compares
with a 22 per cent rating for the
general public and proved decisive
in separating the creative groups
from the control groups.
Perceptual Intuition
The intuition displayed proved
to be a perceptual type rather than
a result of judgment. This further
substantiates the idea that the
creative person remains open to
his environment, Dr. Barron said.
Although many highly creative
persons give the impression of be-
ing unbalanced, Dr. Barron attrib-
utes this to the creative person's
desire for novelty. The creative
person wishes to transcend the
given, but he also wishes to return

With less and less money coming.
into the till, city schools are find-
ing it difficult to educate the in-
creasing number of students.
According to Detroit Public
Schools Superintendent Samuel
Brownell, the troubles of most ur-
ban public schools are caused by
changing tax and population
structures. At the recent 32nd,
annual Conference on Teacher

Over 700 high school and junior
high school students will visit Ann
Arbor this weekend.
The 500 high school students
will be here for the annual Uni-
versity Day, sponsored by the Uni-
versity Affairs Committee of the
Michigan Union and the Office of
Admissions.
The students, all seniors from
sttae high schools, will get their
state high schools, will get their
program beginning with a discus-
sion of "The Selection Process" by
Director of Admissions Clyde Vro-
man at 8:30 a.m. in Hill Aud.
Other events include campus, fra-
ternity and sorority tours, mock
lectures, open houses at various
schools and colleges, and enter-
tainment by the Friars.
Over 700 junior high students
will be guests of the women's phy-
sical education department, in its
physical education playday.

Name Ireland
for Top Role
In Production
John Ireland, Hollywood and
Broadway star, will appear with
Gloria Grahame in the Ann Arbor
Drama Season production of "The
Country Girl," producers Ted Heu-
sel and John Kokales announced
yesterday.
"The Country Girl," written by
Pulitzer Prize winner Clifford
Odets, will begin a week-long en-
gagement June 11 at the Lydia
Mendelssohn Theatre.
Ireland has appeared in eight
successive plays in two years on
Broadway, including "Highland
Fling" and "Doctors Disagree." His
first film was "A Walk in the
Sun.
He was nominated for an Acad-
emy Award for his performance in
"All The King's Men." More re-
cently Ireland has appeared in
"Gunfight at the OK Corral" with
Kirk Douglas and Burt Lancaster.
Set Prooram
On Teaching
The Annual Spring Conference
of the Michigan Association for
Student Teaching will be held at
the University today. It will begin
at 8:30 a.m. with registration in
the Rackham Building.
The program includes a general
session at 9:30 a.m. where a panel
of student teachers will discuss
"Student Teachers View Their
Role," and a lecture at 10:30 a.m.
by Prof. Fritz Redl of Wayne State
University on "Mental Health and
Student Teaching." At 1:30 p.m.
there will be a discussion of the
role of supervising teachers.

Education, heldainnconjunction
with the 75th annual Michigan
Schoolmasters' Club meeting,
Brownell cited five unique prob-
lems of city schools.
The first is the urban population
shift. "There is in the city a high-
er percentage of pupils with the
greatest school needs," Brownell
said, "for there has been a major
increase in the numbers coming to
the city from situations charac-
terized by low income, meager
homes, little schooling of parent
or guardian."
Change in Support
The second problem is the
change in school support. Because
they are faced with a growing
population and new technology,
industries tend to move outside
the city. This deprives the city of
the value of the plant and takes
away community leaders.
The third problem is one of ur-
ban redevelopment. The rebuilding
of cities demands heavy expendi-
tures. "As large numbers of fami-
lies are displaced and at least for
a time taxable property is re-
moved from the rolls, shifts of
population are hastened and fre-
quently attendance in a school
area is increased by hundreds of
pupils almost overnight," Brown-
ell said.
Another one is the youth labor
problem: there are "thousands of
boys and girls between the ages of
16 and 23" who are not in school
but who do not have jobs either.
At least two-thirds of this group
is composed of Negroes.
Only Property Tax
Finally, the fact that cities are
restricted to local property tax
support presents a serious prob-
lem. Brownell said, "The local
electorate may vote, as it has in
Detroit, to increase its tax rate
for schools for a five-year period,
only to find that because of the
decreasing tax base there is less
and less to spend for more and
more pupils." The Board of Edu-
cation has no power to seecure
the needed funds and the Legisla-
ture, having a minority of mem-
bers from the city, is not cooper-
ating.
IFIkReiss V iew s
International
Encyclopedia
"The purpose of the new 'Inter-
national Encyclopedia of the So-
cial Sciences' is to get established
scholars in all the major social
science areas to write articles on
their main theories and topics,"
Prof. Albert J. Reiss, Jr., of the so-
ciology department and recently
appointed associate editor of the
encyclopedia, said yesterday.
The scholars, from several coun-
tries, will be persons who have
made important contributions in
their fields.
Prof. Reiss will be doing some
writing but will be mainly respon-
sible for the selection of articles
and contributors in the areas of
sociology, socialupsychology and
opulation and human ecology.

A parking lot on the corner of
Forest and Washington is now
open for public and student park-
ing, Larry Stinson, '63E, member
of the Student Government Coun-
cil Driving Rules Revision Com-
mittee, announced.
Standards
The resolutions committee of
the Michigan Schoolmaster's
Club urged continuation of the
authority of the State Board of
Education in setting standards
for Michigan te'achers.
"We wish to commend the ef-
forts of those educational lead-
ers and those members of the
State Legislature who recently
resisted an attempt to lower
teacher certification standards
in Michigan," the committee
report said.
The report also commended
the National Science Founda-
tion and the College Entrance
Examination Board for under-
writing research projects and
summer education programs for
teachers,

is also open to student parking,
Stinson said. For a fee of 25 cents
per day the student is permitted
to drive his car in and out as
many times as he wishes. This
means that he can use his car to
go home for lunch and then re-
turn to the same parking space,
Stinson noted. The capacity of this
lot is 70 cars.
Because the South Quadrangle
triangle has been converted into
a residence hall recreation area,
this committee recommends that
students with storage permits
store their cars in the free colos-
seum parking lot on Hill and Divi-
sion Streets, Stinson stated.

40 per cent of campus cars were
unregistered, the University first
gave courtesy warnings, then more
tickets.

Norman L. Thoburn has been

Supporting Services Division pro-

This lot is not reserved for
parking or for car storage, but
for transient parking, he said. The
capacity of this area is 48 cars.

City Refuses
To Mandate
Commission
The City Council Monday night
refused to call upon the Ann Ar-
bor Human Relations Commission
for a statement of position on fair
housing legislation prior to next
week's council vote on the matter.
The vote, following party lines,
went 8-2 against the motion of
Mrs. Eunice L. Burns (D), after
a clash between Mayor Cecil 0.
Creal and Councilman Lynn Eley
(D).
Councilman John Laird (R)
said that such a request would be
premature, since the commission
has yet to hold a public hearing in
the matter.
Eley charged that partisanship
was being injected into the issue.
