By JOAN SKOWRONSKI
Talking to Jerry Hoag, the man-
ager of the Michigan Theatre, is
like watching a town and a uni-
Versity change over 40 years and
reliving a hectic heyday in show
business all at once.
"When I came to Ann Arbor in
1919, it was a sleepy little town
of 15,000, not counting the 5,000
University students," Hoag said
recently.
"Not many of the stores have
changed but I can remember when
the University television station
was a funeral home, and before
that a dancing academy; and
when the present site of Discount
Records was an ice cream parlor
called The Fountain of Youth.
State Street
"State St. was a crooked little
road so low you had to climb
steps to reach the sidewalk. Trol-
leys were running then, whenever
they managed to escape being
pulled off the lines by rambunc-
tious students," he reminisced.
Hoag came to Ann Arbor from
Kalamazoo to manage the old
Majestic Theatre on Maynard St.
where a parking structure now
stands. He became manager of
the Michigan Theatre in 1928.
Although he never received a
college degree, he has enjoyed the
"educational experience" of living
in Ann Arbor and working near
youth.
Many of his memories of the
old University students revolve
around the' Majestic Theatre, a
favorite spot for students during
the 20's.
Freshmen
"In those days, freshmen, iden-
tified unmistakably by the fresh-l
man beanies, couldn't sit in the1

first six rows of the theatre, a
rule strictly enforced by upper-
classmen. In the winter, everyone
wore stocking caps. Freshmen
wore grey ones; sophomores, red
ones; juniors, blue and seniors,
white," he said.
According to Hoag, radio had
much more of an impact on the
theatre then, than television has
had today.
"The impact was so great that
the only way we could get people
into the theatre was to delay per-
formances 15 minutes and broad-
cast "Amos and Andy" for them.
Chief Problem
"Today, the chief problem in my
job is trying to evaluate pictures
to suit the University atmosphere.
We can't have just anything; we
need sophisticated, clever movies
and, unfortunately, there is a
shortage of this kind," he said.
Hoag's work in show business
has brought him close to many
famous personalities.
In the '20s and '30s the Majes-
tic's productions varied from the
legitimate theatre, such as live
plays with Ethel Barrymore, to
vaudeville with Joe Jackson, he
said.
Promotion
Hoag is very proud of his part.
in promoting the career of band;
leader Fred Waring.
"Fred was playing with a group
of students from Pennsylvania]
State University for the J-Hop. I
noticed them, liked them and hir-
ed them for a four day run at
the Majestic. They were a big
hit and the show ran more than
four weeks," he said.
Another of the many anecdotesc
he remembers is the time he had1
to retrieve Jack Benny from a7

bookie joint just in time for a
performance.
Crosby
Haag can recall a slightly tipsy
performance Bing Crosby gave in
the 30's sitting on the edge of the
Michigan's balcony with the audi-
ence below him looking up.
Hoag believes the University
changes noticeably with every stu-
dent body. The greatest change in
the University itself is the num-
ber of students who are privileged
to attend, he contends.
"It used to be that only the
wealthy and those dedicated to
getting an education attended col-
lege; now, with the number of
people it educates the University
has literally become an 'ivy-
covered factory'." Hoag believes
today's students are more indi-
vidualistic-less likely "to jump on
the bandwagon"-and yet more
able to accept a variance of opin-
ion.
Pastime
Sometimes he stands in the
theatre lobby to hear comments
on the feature.
"Often I'll overhear one mem-
ber of a group of students say,
'that movie was horrible'; rnd his
friend will come back with 'what
do you mean? It was great.' The
difference of opinion is there, and
yet, it's accepted without any real
conflict," he commented.
In the same sense the reception
given such speakers as George
Lincoln Rockwell and Ross Bar-
nett reflects the student's willing-
ness at least to hear other opin-1
ions," Hoag said.
"That never would have hap-
pened here 30 years ago," he ob-3
served. Most importantly, Hoagl
feels that youth today are n, rei
open-minded and that they can.

In further action, Douglas
Brook, '65, president of SGC, an-
nounced to the Council that he
had talked to the new vice-presi-
dent of student affairs, Robert
Cutler. Brook said that Cutler ex-
pressed great interest in the ac-
tivities of SGC and hopes to work
with SGC to make it an effective
spokesman for the student body.
Due to a lack of business last
Wednesday, SGC decided to wait
until last night to act on the
grievance reports and the election
of its new member.
Term Activity
In the course of this term, Stu-
dent Government Council has
been studying areas of student
grievances. This extensive study

will request the Office of Business
and Finance and the Office of

their housing affairs.
SGC further adopted a motion
that a study committee investigate

channels. This study committee
will concentrate its attention on

and the individual student.

ed last week to protest the handl-

was scheduled to end last night
at midnight.
Harmony to Dispute
The student, faculty and ad-
ministration negotiators who at-
tended the early evening session
were seeking to bring harmony
out of a dispute which arose be-
tween students and administration
in October.
At that time, the Berkeley ad-
ministration began enforcing an
old ban against on-campus solici-'
tation of funds and members fork
off-campus political activities.
When eight students persisted in
collecting funds for Southern civil
rights work they were arrested
and suspended. The next d-ay, Oct.
1, the first major demonstration
-of 2000 students-took place
on the step of Sproul Hall.

Health Professions Funds (for the
medical and dental students) and
state loan funds (for Michigan
residents). The University also has
its own loan program.
As part of the grievance report
of the Student Economic Welfare
Committee, SGC passed, at its last
meeting, a recommendation that
the University should immediately
raise pay levels to, at least, $1.25
per hour in all departments where
possible.

ber, feels that one of the main

is the low prestige given it by
