be considered as part of "a long-
range coordinating, and planning
function.
"Existing board autonomy would
be retained," he says.
"The University's most pressing
need is obviously money," Sachs
emphasizes.
Pose Problem
Overtaxed facilities, inadequate
faculty numbers and salaries and
rising student costs pose a serious
problem.
He calls for "an increased pub-
lie assumption of responsibility' to
avoid pricing qualified persons out
of the higher education market.",
To meet the need for increased
education funds, Sachs advocates
increased legislative appropria-
tions ("currently inadequate"),
and encouragement of private
grants.
Reduce Tuition
"Student tuitions, as a third
possible source of revenue, should
not be raised; instead, over a
long haul, tuition shoul4 be re-
duced," he adds.
Sachs supports greater Federal
aid to education, "permitting tra-
ditional local control" as another
primary source of funds. Monies
should be granted for "either
teacher salaries or physical im-
provement, in local scretion," as
well as for scholarsh ps. President
John F. Kennedy's recent, pro-
posal "is a modest beginning" in
this direction, he believes.
National Problem
Sachs stresses his contention
that education is a national prob-
lem that responsibility cannot be
confined to the citizens of one
state, especially with the highly
mobile population of today. '
The potential of the federal in-
come tax is greater than State
property taxes and thus the fed-
eral government should be looked
to for greater contributions to
state education, he says.
He backs year-round operation
of the University, although not
committed to any specific plan.
Greater accommodation of stu-
dents, maximizing use of facilities
and minimizing years spent by
students in colleges are definite
advantages, Sachs feels.
Sees Solutions
Traditional vacation habit dis-
ruption and interference with fac-
ulty study are possible problems,
although "not insoluable."
Sachs presents a youthful and
vigorous program, spiced with lib-
eralism, to the voters. His ideas
are supported by the logic of a
lawyer, a lawyer concerned with
modern higher education.
Jacobson Set
To Give Talk
Prof. Eugene Jacobson of Michi-
gan State University will speak
on "The Role of Social Research
in Programs of Social Develop-
ment" at a sociology colloquium
at 4:15 p.m. today in the East
Conference Rm. of the Rackham
Bldg.

"The University's faculty sports
program is unique; no other cam-
pus in the country has a program
that comes anywhere near ours,"
Earl M. Riskey, Director of Physi-
cal Education for Men, said yes-
terday.
Over 400 faculty members par-
ticipate in this program, which
offers a wide range of activities.
The interested faculty member can
choose a competitive program
covering 18 sports, or an informal
program offering particpation in
many sports for faculty twosomes.
A conditioning program is also
available in which the participant
receives organized fitness exer-
cises. Instruction is offered to any
faculy member wishing to improve
his particular skill, Riskey said.
Competitive Program
In the competitive program, 36
departments enter teams to par-
ticipate in 18 different sports.
Competition is based 'on the same
system as the other I-M divisions.
It ranges from the friendly to the
rather intense, as feeling runs high
during an important game.
Faculty interest in this pro~-
gram is increasing-this fall ten
touch football teams competed,
Riskey said. This is more than in
previous years.
Volleyball draws the highest
participation with 32 departments
entering teams. In the past, the
School of Business Administration
and -the zoology department have
dominated overall faculty com-
petition.
For the individual who is in-
terested in a particular sport, the
I-M department provides sports
clubs. These clubs, made up of
both faculty and students, direct
their activities toward only one
sport, he said.
Publicized Phases
One of the most publicized
phases of the faculty sports pro-
gram is the faculty-student com-
petition. About 300 faculty mem-
bers competed in this event last
year. 'The number competing in
this event is limited only by the
number of faculty teams that en-
ter. Student teams are always
available.
The faculty has been surpris-
ingly successful against student
competition, losing in total points
only once in the past eight years.
Talk'Ti o View
Latin.America
Scott Nearing, once a New York
candidate for Congress on the So-
cialist party ticket and presently
author-lecturer, will, speak on
"The Challenge of Latin America"
at 8 p.m. today in Rm. 3R-S of
the Michigan Union.
Nearing just returned from a
three month tour of South Amer-
ica.
The program is co-sponsored by
Challenge and the Unitarian
Church.

Know Audience
"When we take more pains to
know the audience, we will un-
derstand the patterns and for-
mulas behind the epic."
Citing his research done in
Greek villages in Cyprus and
Crete he said, "The Greek village
is a pattern of formulae in eco-
nomic, social and religious life.
The villager is born into it and
feels perfectly at home in it," and
so are his folk songs and epics.
Prof. Notopoulos also said that
many things which critics have'
found difficult to understand in
the written form of epic works ap-
pear unimportant in the oral
form.
Views Homer
In viewing Homer, for example,
critics note the looseness of unity
and the logical inconsistencies be-
tween the books, he said.
He also noted that each Hom-
eric book is an episode and it is
approximately the length of the
epics sung in modern Greece by
bards. The length of the episode
is determined by the endurance
of a bard's singing, which is about
two hours.
Critics Apply Standards
"It is only the critics who ap-
ply written standards to these

Traditional critical standards
are invalid when dealing with epic
poetry composed in an oral tra-
dition, Prof. James A. Notopoulos
of Trinity College said yesterday.
Speaking on "Towards a Poetics
for Oral Epic Poetry," Prof. Noto-
poulos noted that Aristotle's 'Po-
etics' sees Homer "drama-center-
ed" and offers little of value to
oral poetry.
"Oral poetry has no existence
