Adult education courses are call- ed social education and cover all training given outside the regular school system, he explained. "The future of the Japanese economy depends on high indus- trialization, and we must make the best of our limited resources. It is often said that our best resource is our human power," Yamamoto noted. Production Decreases If the people are left uneducat- ed, their rate of production de- clines. Therefore it is necessary to educate them, he declared. The main aim of social educa- tion has been vocational. "As sci- ence progresses, the people should keep abreast of these advances," Yamamoto said. The social education program is carried out by public and private organizations. Japan is divided in- to 46 prefectures, each exercising local autonomy over its own boards of education. The prefectures are subdivided into local municipali- ties, each municipality having its own board. Gives Advice The ministry has some control over these boards, but its duty is mainly to give advice to the pre- fectures. There are 72 national universities, colleges and techni- Voice To Plan New Platform Voice political party will adopt its campaign platform for the coming S t u d e n t Government Council election at 7:30 p.m. to- night in Rm. 3-G of the Michigan Union. Voice has already endorsed Gary Gilbar, '65A&D; Michael Kass, '65; Regina Rosenfeld, '64, and incumbent Robert Ross, '63. Final action on the nature of Voice's future affiliation with the Students for a Democratic Society will also be discussed. The meeting is open to all. Clark To Discuss Law, Economy Prof. J. M. Clark will speak on "Legal Versus Economic Criteria in the Field of Competition and Monopoly" at 8 p.m. tonight in the East Conference Rm. of the Rack- ham Bldg. The talk, sponsored by the economics department, is a part of the Little Seminar Lec- tures. cal institutions over which the ministry also exerts a degree of control. Theministry sets the national standard of admission for these institutions. However, there are approximately 400 private educa- tional organizations over which the ministry has no control. Social education courses are car- ried out mainly through the Citi- zen's Public Hall, an organization under the local boards of educa- tion. The courses are usually held in the public schools in the eve- ning. The local boards make up the curriculum in their areas. "Social education was not ac- tively promoted until after World War II. Since that time there has been arremarkable development in this area," Yamamoto noted. Social education is alsoimpor- tant for the democratization of our country, he continued. Besides the vocational aspect, Japan em- phasizes citizenship courses. "We have shown our resolution to contribute to world peace by building a democratic state. The realization of this depends funda- mentally on the power of educa- tion. School education is aimed at the future, whereas social educa- tion is aimed at the present," he explained. Author, of 'Varsity' Describes Trolly-Car Song_ Creation, By ELLEN SILVERMAN "Varsity" was written on a De- troit trolley-car in 1912, just be- cause the University needed an- other song, author of the lyrics J. Fred Lawton, '11, said Saturday. "Earl Moore, '12, and I were rid- ing on the trolley in Detroit when suddenly the words came to me for a new song-"Varsity we're for you, here for you, to cheer for You. "Neither Earl nor I had a piece of paper so we had to remember the song until we got to my house," Lawton reminisced. And so the traditional Michigan football song was written. Has Meaning The song is good even if the team loses, Lawton said, comment- ing on Saturday's defeat. "Unlike the 'Victors' it still means some- thing no matter how the team fares." "Varsity" was introduced to the campus Friday, Oct. 6, 1912, at a pep rally before the game. Lawton was scheduled to appear at the rally and when he introduced the new song "it was a terrific hit," he said. "The students kept crying 'we want more' and as a joke I brought Moore down from the organ loft where he was playing to lead the audience in another chorus." No Revisions Moore, later to become dean of the music school, had written the music for Lawton's lyrics. "Earl didn't change a note that he wrote on the first day. Once we had the chorus written we never revised it," Lawton commented. To the original chorus the two men only added an introduction. At the 1961 Honors Convocation the Regents presented Lawton with a Regental citation, the 12th such honor given since the Uni- versity was founded. The citation is given in recogni- tion of work done for the Univer- sity without remuneration. "This is different from an honorary de- gree since they are given to people who contribute to the world in general rathre than just the Uni- versity," Lawton noted. Honored by Regents At the samne time Lawton was honored by the Regents for a book, "When the Roses Bloomed in the Snow." The book traces the his- tory of University athletics and its title is taken from a football game played in three feet of snow. "The book covers the University from Prexy Angell and Coach Fielding H. Yost to University President Harlan H. Hatcher and Coach Chalmers (Bump) Elliott," Lawton commented. Herbert To Sing With Baroque Trio Prof. Ralph Herbert of the mu- sic school will appear with tlie University Baroque Trio in a put:- lic concert at 8:30 p.m. tonight in the Rackham Lecture Hall. (EDITOR'S NOTE: This is the 20th in a series of 21 articles featuring the namesakes of the men's resi- dence halls.) By LOUISE LIND Uniting in an exceptional way the roles of scholar, author, teach- er and administrator, Prof. Jesse Siddall Reeves of the political sci- ence department devoted his life to rebuilding the shattered struc- tures of international relations. Born in Indiana in 1872, Prof. Reeves did his undergraduate work at Amherst, received his doctorate from Johns Hopkins in 1894 and was admitted to the Indiana State' Bar in 1897. He practiced law in Indiana for 10 years before turning to teach- ing political science at- the Wom- en's College of Baltimore, Johns Hopkins University, Dartmouth, the University of Chicago and finally the University. International Law Operating out of the University as head of the political science department from its beginning in 1910, Prof. Reeves for 31 years directed his endeavors as an au- thority on international law to re- solving the turmoil of internation- al relations. Taking advantage of the multi- ple opportunities available to an authority on international law at that time of conflict in.this na- tion's history, Prof. Reeves took a position of leadership in the field whenever his academic duties allowed. He directed the Institute of Pol- itics at Williamstown, Mass., and headed a round-table discussion on international law. He lectured at the Hague Academy on Inter- national Law in 1930. Represented America He was one of the two official United States representatives in the Pan-American Conference for International Law Codification. Particularly active in the Amer- ican Society of International Law, Prof. Reeves was assistant editor of its journal. In addition, he en- joyed executive authority over the American Political Science Asso- ciation in 1928. His efforts were publicly rec- ognized by Amherst and Williams Colleges which bestowed upon him the honorary degrees of Doctor of Letters and Doctor of Laws, re- spectively. University Decree The University decreed him the William W. Cook Professor of American Institutions. Prof. Reeves died in 1942, a few years after his retirement at the age of 70. His name is now associ- ated with Reeves House in South Quadrangle. Evans Notes portance of Religion By JEFFREY K. CHASE "It is impossible to understand contemporary h is t o r y without some understanding of Baha'u'l- lah," Winston G. Evans, author, lecturer, and authority on the Baha'i Faith in a talk recently. Each religion believes that its emancipator is the only one. For the Jews it is Moses; for the Christians it is Jesus. Just as science, upon new findings, rejects false theories formulated in years past, so must religion be a pro- gressive institution, Evans ex- plained. The Divine revelation is a con- tinuous and constant process. When God believes man needs his faith quickened he sends a mes- senger to earth. This man for the modern world is Baha'u'llah, who served mankind in the mid nine- teenth century by diagnosing its ills and bringing it the Divine remedy, Evans continued. Broken Barriers The basic doctrine of Baha'u'l- lah says this is the time for the unification of mankind; all bar- riers-racial, ethnic, religious, na- tional - must be broken. "The gates will be flung wide open to mankind: Prejudice toward none, love for all," Baha-'u'llah said. It is Baha'u'llah who has brought the teachings necessary for the kingdom of God on earth, Evans noted. "What passes for religion in America today is only a religious tranquilizer, just enough to pacify the people." Modern man needs a religion which will stimulate him into action. The spiritual power should increase as the crisis in- creases, Evans stated. Spiritual Atmopshere Prof. E. G. Brown of Cambridge University said, "The spiritual at- mosphere of Baha'i is so power- ful that it either attracts or re- pels; it cannot be ignored." The Baha'is today are in the same position the early Christians found themselves, Evans added. There are many Biblical refer- ences to the coming of Baha'u'l- lah, Evans continued. "Before ye call I- will answer" fortells the coming of a redemmer who will divert a crisis before it occurs. Baha'u'llah has come to save the world from the perils of the twen- tieth century." Accurately Charted Moses said, "Any prophet who does not bear out is not a pro- phet." But Baha'u'llah has quite accurately charted out the course of human events since his time. Jesus said, "By their fruits ye shall know them." And Baha'u'l- lah's doctrines have powerful in- fluences. The coming of Baha'u'llah is the greatest spiritual drama in religious history, Evans stated. Kelly To Leave Peace Corps E. Lowell Kelly, chief of the Peace Corps division of selection and former chairman of the psy- chology department, said yester- day that he will be leaving the Corps about Dec. 10. Kelly was granted a sabbatical leave and one-year's leave without salary from th University and will return as an active member of the faculty in fall, 1963. Kelly was appointed to his posi- tion in the Corps in February. By DIANE PINE The Baha'i faith, according to Winston Evans, one of its leading advocates, is a religion which stresses the continual unfolding of divine faith. In its fundamental principles, it states that all truths are rela- tive to the period in which they are revealed. God provides a dif- ferent light for every age and therefore every age will have a different set of values. As each race evolves, more and more profound truths will be, re- vealed so that as civilization pro- gresses, it will learn more and more of God's law. However, civil- ization will never advance to the point where the entire truth is revealed, Evans says. Interpret History Because Baha'i is the truth which is most current to our so- ciety, it is able to interpret his- tory and the situations of our day better than others, he adds. Baha'i started about 100 years ago when the prophet Baha'u'l- lah began spreading his ideas. At that time the leaders of the Western world thought t h a t eventually the entire earth would be taken over by Western culture. Baha'u'llah predicted t h a t this would never happen because Western culture, instead of pro- gressing would regress. He came as a "divine physician andpre- dicted the downfall of the mon- archies and the degeneration of faith in every land because of spiritual sickness. Predicted Downfall This downfall would be the di- vine intervention of God, indicat- ing that people could no longer Students Stand In Silent Vigil Approximately 80 University; students and citizens of Ann Arbor protested the United States policy in Cuba by holding a silent vigil Saturday under the flagpole on the Diag. The action was taken to show support and sympathy for the thousands who demonstrated in Washington, D.C. and in other campuses and cities throughout the United States, Michael Brown, '63, spokesman for the group, said., understand His teachings, Evans 'says. According to the faith the twentieth century is an extension of the predicted downfall of man. Evans compared the world to a sick organism in dire need of surgery. The surgeon would be a spiritual rejuvenation and a re- uniting under Baha'i. In his words, "man must be purged in a crucible of fire and suffering and purified in a cleansing fire" before he will be able to understand God again. When the world sees the light and Baha'i becomes universal mankind will be saved. Wit ey G roup, Clubs Offer Scholarships The University Alumni Clubs of Des Moines, Iowa, and Pittsburgh, ., and the Whitley Foundation are offering scholarships this se- mester open to qualifying stu- dents, Assistant Director of Fi- nancial Aids Ivan Parker said recently. The Whitley Scholarships are available for the first time at the University. Five or six may be awarded for the present semester to residents of Ingham County who are majoring in psychology, pre-law or business education. Requisities for. the awards are "superior scholastic achievement and need," Parker said. This year no local nominees were presented by the University Alum- ni Chapters at Des Moines and Pittsburgh for their annual schol- arships. Therefore, any qualified students from the Des Moines or Pittsburgh metropolitan areas are eligible for the awards. Qualifica- tion entails need and at least a "B" average. Candidates will be interviewed on campus and, if found to be eligible, will be referred to the alumni groups by the University for aid this semester. Parker said that applications were now being accepted for the LaVerne N o y e s Scholarships. These are available to undergrad- uates who are direct blood de- scendants of veterans of World War I. Committee To Sponsor Investigation The literary college steering committee, in their weekly meeting yesterday, announced they will hold an open meeting to discuss counseling at 4 p.m. on Nov. 12 in the Conference Rm.of Angell Hall. The present pre-classification system and other possible improve- ments in counseling will also be considered. Reports of difficulties resulting from insufficient coun- seling will also be aired. In addition, a suggestion for a course description book, which was raised at the meeting, will be pre- sented. All students and faculty members concerned or interested in the problems of counseling are urged to attend. The steering committee also dis- cussed the implications and possi- bilities of the recently proposed auxiliary small college plan. This plan was formulated by the literary college curriculum com- mittee after two semesters of seeking a way to expand the literary college without distressing many faculty members who are against any expansion.
