"They're the only people I2know who currently have more money than ideas," Prof. Davis remarked, adding that much of their money is currently going into capital out- lay-erecting several new buildings on the university campus both to school and. house the incoming students. "They have been given govern- ment money to build almost from scratch, the kind of total Inter- national student program we have slowly developed over 125 years," he added. "It makes us realize that an incredible amount of money goes into our programs without really being aware of it. To Spend $10 Million "The thing that struck me," Davis declared," is that they are planning to spend $10 million per year to build up what we have here already." In fact, the Uni- NEWMAN CLUB.

The center is situated in Hawaii primarily because of its strategic location, between the Pacific coun- tries and the mainland. The ambunt of money given to the Center by the government has allowed the creation of several special features that few other area study centers can offer. "First of all, they have an ade- quate scholarship program." By 1965, the Center expects to pro- vide 2,000 full scholarships-for educational, personal, living and travel expenses. For the Asian students, the scholarships will in- clude enough money for a study tour on the mainland. Scholarships Available Of the 2,000 scholarships, 1,6000 will be available to Asian and Pa- cific area students; while 400 will be reserved for Americans who are Asian area students capable of getting their master's degree in Asian studies in two years," Prof. Davis said. The East-West center has a specific problem with staffing, Prof. Davis said. "The Vniversity of Hawaii plans to integrate the teaching staff of the center into the rest of the university as much as possible. "This limits them to working within the university's salary level -and the university's salaries are not very high." Since the univer- sity cannot, within its regulations, provide travel or moving expenses to any new faculty member, they have a limited chance to lur9 men to teach at the center. Because of this problem, Davis thinks that their teaching staff will consist of men who are drawn there because they are interested in the concept of the Center and teaching rather than in research. Grants Attract To attract the top scholars in the field, the center has an "ad- vanced program," grants of federal funds to individual "senior schol- ars" who will come to the center "to pursue their own scholarly activities on a mature level, free from other responsibilities," Prof. Davis said. These men will not be part of the university staff, and so will not be limited to its salaries and subject to its restrictions. "The center also is planning a series of conferences, along the line of their semi-annual East- West philosophic conference. They have a tradition of concern with East-West problems, which they intend to promote," Prof. Davis said. Several sub-centers - such as an International Theater Cen- ter, a Race Relations Research Center, and East-West Economic Relations Center-are also plan- ned. Plans Exciting "Their housing plans are very exciting," Prof. Davis noted. Asian and American students will live together while in the program, in apartments for 10 (eight Asians and two Americans) with a joint bath and living room, and indivi- dual sleeping and study quarters. "Their plans for living units are the realization of a dream I've had for a long time," Davis said. "They are excellent plans for this kind of integrated operation." (Continued from Page 1) does not want to exclude these students. "They are an integral part of this community and it is our desire and duty to -serve them." Fears 'Groundless' Fears that the MUG may cease to be the "intelectual forum" it has served for some students are groundless, Morton said. "There is absolutely no reason why such activity will be forced to stop." The "disagreeable" tone that is felt in the MUG may have per- meated other Union facilities, but' the main concern is centered here, Ross said. "Over 80 per cent of the people who come to the Un- ion come to the MUG. They often judge the whole Union by what they see there." Complaints about the Union's atmosphere have come from stu- dents, faculty and alumni. "Old- er residents of Ann Arbor and alumni have been one of the big- gest sources of complaint," Mor- ton said. Friends Group Plans, Meeting The American Friends Service Committee is sponsoring a con- ference on world peace tomorrow at Flint College, Ann Blalock, ad- visor of the Ann Arbor Young Friends said yesterday. The morning, afternoon and evening sessions of the conference will consider "A Moral Basis for Foreign Policy," "Power Among Men," and "Who is the Enemy?" They will feature speakers, a film, panel discussions and open dis- cussions. Mrs. Blalock added that trans- portation will be arranged for those who wish to attend. There will be a .50 cent fee for each pro- gram. Reports of illegal activities in the MUG have also come to the attention of the Union through reports from the local police and the dean of men's office. Students Comment Another indication of the un- favorable atmosphere in the Un- ion is the attitude many students have adopted towards it, Ross claimed. "There is student com- ment from- some quarters that many students dislike the ques- tionable atmosphere in theMUG." He pointed out that the reve- nue from the MUG has- fallen off during the past few years. Al- though many factors enter into this recession of trade, the tone of the MUG can be seen as an important one, he said. The committee will report its findings and recommendations to the board of directors by March 9. Until the whole, board acts upon these conclusions, no for- mal action will be taken by the Union staff. Studying, Games Limited "We have, however, limited studying and card playing in the MUG so they will not interfere with the dinner hours," Morton said. Morton said the Union was not opposed to studying and card play- ing perse. "But theseactivities may cause a disturbance if a large crowd gathers, interferes with meal hours, ,messes up the premises, and severely limits movement in the ,grill."
