By JEAN TENANDER
The Bureau of Industrial Re-
lations has established a Center
for Programmed Learning for
Business, designed to acquaint the
business community with the tech-
nology of programmed learning.
The Center was created to sup-
ply industry with the opportunity
to learn more about what pro-
grammed learning can do and to
train personnel in the technology
of programmed learning. The pro-
gram will be presented in a series
of weekly workshops.
"Until recently, most of the ac-
tivity in the programmed learning
fleld has been directed towardf or-
mal education and it is difficult
for industry - which has been
quicker to realize the potentials of
programmed learning - to get
any straight answers. It is our
objective to provide those 'an-

swers', Geary A. Rummler, direc-
tor of the workshops, said recently.
Key Personnel
During the past eight months
the workshop has graduated more
than 100 key personnel from over
70 business, industry and govern-
ment organizations in five coun-
tries. The workshops are directed
at top-level executives concerned
with the general areas of training,
education and communications as
well as toward line managers and
staff specialists dealing with more
specific training problems.
While attending the course, theI
participants actually program1
their own material. They are not
subject to a barrage of lectures
but are an active part of every
learning exercise.
The workshop format follows a
sequential, programmed process of
instruction. Some of the elements
involved are, theory of shaping be-
havior, basic procedures of pro-
gramming, determination of ob-
jectives for the programs and
practicing programming with their
own materials.
Library Program
One of the sample programs
compiled by a student involved a
plan to program instruct the cata-
loguing of books in the General
Library. At present the library
suffers seriously from the loss of
time incurred every year asnew
staff is acquired. Since the turn-
over in staff amounts to roughly
70 per cent, a faster method of
instruction would be invaluable.
Graduates of the workshop in-
clude representatives from almost

every phase of industry and man-
agement. In addition to the regu-
larly scheduled workshops, the
Center conducted a special week-
long session exclusively for Feder-
ated Department Stores.
Having attended the seminars,
graduates are able to advise man-
agement on the feasibility of using
programmed instruction in their
organizations. They are capable of
selecting wisely from commercial-
ly prepared programmed instruc-
tion and can hire their own pro-
fessional instructors with assur-
ance.
"Perhaps one of the most unique
aspects of the workshops and cer-
tainly one reason for their con-
tinued success is our faculty and
our philosophy in selecting the
faculty," Rummler said. We select
only people who have had exper-
ience in either writing or editing
programmed material, he said.
The University's Workshop for
programmers is the only regularly
scheduled one of its kind in the
United States.
Programmed learning in the
business world may bring added
efficiency to supply more direct
means of communication.

RECORD UNBEATEN-Some 160 men collected in Strauss House,
East Quad, in an unsuccessful attempt to break Michigan State
University's record of 230 men in a double room. Another try is
scheduled for next week by Strauss and Greene men.

ELECTION CAMPAIGN:
Payne Sees Task of Representatives
As Exploring Path's To Disarmament

"There is no more important
goal towards which a congressman
can work than to seek, with other
members of Congress and the ex-
ecutive branch, a solution to the
thorniest problems which face our
nation today - the problems of
finding a path out of the present
arms race," Democratic candidate
for Congress Thomas P. Payne
said last night. _
He said the questions which re-
quire study and eventual solution

include: How can we develop arms
control plans which will reduce
international tensions and, at the
same time, maintain our national
security?
How can we make significant
reductions in our cm rent level of
defense spending which now ex-
ceeds $50 billion per year without
severe economic hardship to mil-
lions of citizens?
Problems Insoluble
Payne said that "if we maintain,
as many of our present congress-
men do that these problems are
insoluble, then we are admitting
that we, along with the rest of the
world, are on a collision course
with nuclear disaster."
"What is required," Payne said
"is a recognition by Congress that
this is a vital problem and that
its solution is worth every bit of

effort and expense which may be
required."
Payne asserted that "up to now
Congress has been stingy with
peace." He said that $6 5 million
has currently been appropriated
for one year's operation of the
Arms Control and Disarmament
Agency.
"The congressman s e ek i n g
peace can support those programs
which seem to offer hope in this
area. He can vote support for the
Peace Corps and the Arms Control
Agency. He can work with other
members of the House, Senate and
the executive branch towards solu-
tions -"to the problems of economic
dislocatio which would result
from major reductions in defense
spending."
Payne said that a congressman
can "show his support of the non-
military needs of our people-the
need for better education, for bet-
ter housing, for solutions to the
complex problems of our urban
areas and humane treatment of!
our elderly citizens.
"A congressman can be aware
and show that he is aware of the
great desire on the part of our
people to find a successful way
to turn the arms race into a peace'
race," he said.

Accepts Plan
For Change
In Gargoyle
By MARTHA MacNEAL
"When the Board in Control of
Student Publications accepted our
plan for a new Gargoyle, they
also accepted the whole new phil-
osophy which we presented," John
Dobertin, '64, said last night.
The new philosophy is one of
"humor without vulgarity." "The
old Gargoyle folded in 1960 not
only because the staff had only
one person willing to take a sen-
ior position, but also because its
humor had become an in-group
'expression, without wide appeal,"
he continued.
According to Dobertin, the new
Gargoyle is here to stay. To help
insure its longevity, he has in-
itiated and will continue a recruit-
ing program based on personal
contact with campus groups. Last
year he spoke in several housing
units, and the staff for this year
numbers over 40 persons.
Each issue of Gargoyle will fea-
ture one guest writer and one
guest cartoonist. For the first
issue, Victor Borge will contribute
a column and either Charles
Addams or Charles Schultz will
also contribute.
In format each issue of the mag-
azine will be divided into sections
of international, national, state,
and campus humor. 'Ihe theme of
of the first issue, will be "What Is
Humor?" and will. "explain Gar-
goyle and give an Idea of our fu-
ture plans," Dobertin said.
One continuous feature will con-
sist of "O Henry Twist" stories-
stories with surprise endings in
the style of the American author.
The senior staff consists of
Dobertin, editor-in-chief; Stuart
Goodall, '63, business manager;
Roger Goldman, '63 BAd, advertis-
ing manager; Lynne i'riedrich, '63,
managing editor, and Aleksis Lah-
ti, '63 A&D, art editor.

Four Students
Demand Writ
Four students of the University
of California's Riverside campus
have asked for a writ of manda-
mus against the Regents of the
university, President Clark Kerr
and Riverside Chancellor Herman
T. Speith.
The suit arose out of Speith's
refusal to allow Dorothy Healy, a
member of the Southern Cali-
fornia Communist Party to speak
on the Riverside campus.
The state supreme court ruled
that it would not take cases in-
volving freedom of speech on di-
rect appeal from a superior court.
The students, members of Del-
lare, a liberal organization at
Riverside, have now appealed to
the California Fourth District
Court. They attacked the ban on
the ground that it is a denial of
their basic freedoms under the
California constitution.
