AContinental Distributing Inc.,Release NEXT SUNDAY By HELENE SCHIFF As the 14,500 youths from 144 countries left the Communist- sponsored eighth world youth fes- tival in Helsinki Aug. 5, the gen- eral consensus was that the festi- val was successful at furthering international goodwill but failed at furthering international Com- munism. Although it was reported that 75 per cent of all the festival ac- tivities were nonpolitical, there were demonstrations since the opening d a y. Anti-Communist youths shouted anti-Soviet slo- gans at various festival events in- cluding parades, sports events, concerts, movies and dances and the Helsinki police arrested at least 80 demonstrators. Also, the festival proved to be an escape hatch for East European youths fed up with Communism. Reportedly 20 East Germans have defected since the opening of the festival. In addition, several Poles have deserted their delegation. One of the most crucial moves that occurred at the festival was the walkout of 44 non-Commun- ists of the ,101 member Ceylonese delegation. Headed by the delega- tion's official leader, Hema Da- bare, they left in protest against the procedure at politicalmeet- ings, wheredCommunist speakers were favored. For therpast 15 years the festi- vals have been held in Communist capitals-Prague, Budapest, East Berlin, Bucharest, Warsaw, Mos- cow. The most recent festival in Vienna, Austria, in 1959 was the first one to be held in a non-Com- munist country. The Finnish gov- ernment, this year's host, was op- posed to having the festival in its country. Two Finnish youth organiza- tions, representing the vast major- ity of Finland's youth, protested a festival in their country under Communist auspices, and refused to take part in the preparations. According to the organizers of the Festival, they are, financed from fees paid by the participants and voluntary contributions. Since the cost of the festivals has been estimated at several million dol- lars and the income from partici- pants' fees would amount to about half a million dollars, it is gener- ally concluded that the funds come from outside sources. The United States was repre- sented by a 450 member delega- tion. In addition several anti-fes- tival groups such as the Yale Uni- versity Russian chorus and the Independent Research Service (IRS) sent representatives. IRS tried to counter Communist prop- aganda by establishing personal contacts and fight private oral battles with Communist propagan- ists. Among this group were five University students - Michael Zweig, '64; Brian Glick, '62; Rob- ert Ross, '63; Barbara Feldkamp, '62; John Feldkamp, '64L; and Prof. E. Harold Swayze of the political science department. About one-fourth of the Unit- ed States contingent went on a 13-day tour of the Soviet Union after the Festival ended. (Continued from Page 1) The commission reviewed rather carefully the studies and recom- mendations which had been made by earlier faculty groups. It also conducted research of its own into future (potential) student enroll- ments, and the ability of the Uni- versity to meet these if its growth was on a year-to-year basis. "It was the conclusion of the commission after this preliminary research that some form of year- round operation would be a nec- essity, and we, proceeded to take a look at different plans for im- plementing year-round activities," Prof. Haber said. Initial faculty reaction to the possible conversion to year-round operations was tested at an in- formal meeting of the University Senate in April. In mid-May, a preliminary re- port was discussed by representa- tives of the commission with Pres- ident Hatcher and the Regents. Shortly after this, Prof. Haber and the committee's administra- tive secretary, Stephen Spurr, dean of the natural resources school, who followed as commis- sion chairman when Prof. Haber went on sabbatical leave last year, conferred with Student Govern- ment Council to findout student reaction to the possible plan. How- ever, Council never voted on the issue. At the same time, President Hatcher called a special meeting of the University Senate to en- able faculty members to raise questions or objections to the year-round plan.

SNEAKP IEw FRIDAY, SEPT. 14th 9 O'CLOCK M/CHIGAN THEAT RE Construction begins this fall on the new $4.6 million Music School Bldg., which the University finally succeeded in getting from the' state Legislature after years of frustration. The building, designed by famed architect Eeno Saarinen, should be completed out on North Cam- pus by September 1964, and as the largest music school in the country will house faculty offices and classrooms for music school students. Students not enrolled in the school will, continue to receive music instruction in Burton Tow- er, Hill Aud. and Lane Hall. These are only three of the 13 buildings scattered around campus in which music courses are given.

Saarinen's sprawling, cleanly- designed structure, to be carved out of a heavily-wooded slope overlooking the Huron River, will c o n t a i n two concert-rehearsal halls (about the size of Aud. A), 55 teaching studios, 50 classrooms, 189 practice rooms, faculty offices and a 30,000 volume library-all representing a considerable in- crease in facilities available. The building is totally sound- proof, and much care will be taken to insure proper acoustics. Drop Halls Originally, a large auditorium and concert hall (to supplant Hill Aud.) was included in the struc- ture, but was left out when it was found the cost would zoom up' to $8 million. Assistant Dean Allen P. Britton of the music school said the new facility could allow for some ex- pansion in the school's enrollment, if necessary additional funds be- come available. Dean James B. Wallace praised the new construction as evidence that the University is as vitally, interested in the humanities as in other phases of academic life. .V M~ ../.::..:Mx: .

Major Issues One of the major issues raised was whether the University could obtain sufficient appropriations to keep going for three "sem~nes- ters." But President Hatcher in- timated that there would be real problems raised if the plan were approved. Thus, with administrative as- surances, the faculty offered their (unofficial) approval to the pro- posal. The Senate Advisory Commit- tee also lent its support to the pro- posal, urging President Hatcher to send it on to the Regents with whom final approval rested. Submit Report Then, late in May, the eight- man commission submitted its formal report to the President, asking for a gradual conversion to year-round operation through the use of a triple-semester plan differing from both the "quarter" system used at schools like the University of Chicago and the so- called "trimester" plan currently in effect at the University of Pittsburgh and at the University's Dearborn Center. "The basic difference between the University's future operations and those at Pittsburgh concern the acceleration of undergraduate education. "The faculty commission didn't feel that acceleration was neces- sarily good - Pittsburgh thinks that three years in lieu of fours sufficient for an undergraduate education. We wanted to expand facilities, but this doesn't mean that schooling can or ought to take less time, for there is more to college than going to classes," Spurr said. Gradual Change The plan called for a very grad- ual easing into year-round opera- tinby shortening the fall and spring semesters by about two weeks each, and by adding a third "split" semester instead of the current summer session. "After the President had re- viewed the plan, it was transmit- ted to the Regents and approved in principle by them, although the Regents added that they wanted further time for a more thorough study of the problems which would be raised when it was in- stituted," Spurr commented. Since that time, the University -the faculty,,.student body and of course administration-has start- ed attempting to find its way into the world of year-round opera- tions. During the summer, various deans and department chairmen decided how much additional ap- propriations the conversion would require. And despite President Hatcher's assurances to the fac- ulty a year ago that no financial crisis would result because of a full year program, there are a good many faculty members whose attitudes are frankly pessimistic, Cautious Entrance The whole program is being en- tered into very slowly and cau- tiously, so that if it is unsuccess- ful, the University can pull out with a minimum of embarrass- ment and effort. There are several factors which could account for a lack of suc- cess. First is the question of finances. Prof. Haber felt that the posi- tion of the University's needs for additional funds for growth and development would be strengthen- ed if the school went on year- round operations. However, the amount needed would be at least several million dollars-mostly to pay for the ad- ditional faculty which would nec- essarily be hired during the third semester, since the Senate and the administration have made it quite clear that they don't want faculty members teaching at the Univer- sity for three consecutive semes- ters. This of course means that visiting professors will have to be hired, and could conceivably mean a necessary pay boost. Summer School Then, too, students just might not wish to attend during the summer semester. The University could have means of making the May-August session more appeal- ing, such as presenting a better variety of courses to students at that time, or rejecting applicants for admission in September, but admitting them for the following May session. Student response to the pro- gram has been negligible. But it isc liklylvthat .if thei nrnai'o n s 4,, ,I ': 1 I1 * STARTING SATURDAY * THE GREATEST THRILL CLASSIC OF ALL TIME!
