Exposes NegroPolitical Plight

MUSICAL ROLE:

On Evolution of Blues

Hospital To Relieve Nurses of Small Jobs

By KENNETH WINTER
The South "will go to any end"
to stop the Negro from becoming
a political force in that area,
Charles McDew charged last night.
For Negroes who attempt to
rek ister for voting, "there is al-
ways present the danger of vio-
lerce and even intimidation," he
said.
IAcDew is chairman of the Stu-
dent Non-Violent Coordinating
Committee, which for the past two
years has been engaged in at-
tempts to register Negro voters
in the South.
Southern Leaders
McDew explained the import-
ance of the Negro vote in the
South. "People from the Southern
bloc run this country," because
they control key Congressional
comrmittee chairmanships, and
"they block every bit of progres-
sive legislation," he asserted.
However, these people come
from predominantly Negro areas,
McDew noted. Thus, if the Ne-
groes could be registered to vote,
such long-time Senators as Rich-
ard Russell (D-Ga) and James
Eastland (D-Miss) could be un-
seated, and their hold on Congress
broken, he continued.
Set Up Hurdles
T h e Southern conservatives
know this, and are trying to halt
Negro registration by setting up
"a number of hurdles":

1) They capitalize on "the great
fear the Negroes hold"-fear of
what will happen if they try to
register.
2) They charge a poll tax, which
must be paid-up for two years
before a person can register, but
only open the offices which can
receive these payments a few days
a year.
3) They publish the names of all
registrees in the county news-
paper. "By Mississippi law, your
peers are then able to question
your moral character"-and if it
is "questioned" successfully, the
registration is void.
Against Negroes
4) They require.a literacy test,
which is administered by local
registrars, who judge the adequacy
of a person's rely at their own
discretion. As a result, for ex-
ample, "A Harvard Ph.D. was
judged to be illiterate. He was a
Negro," McDew commented.
5) Finally there is violence and
financial sanction. He said that
five SNCC field secretaries have
been shot, eight Negro churches
burned, and one Negro, Herbert
Lee, was killed by a Mississippi
state representative.
In addition, SNCC workers are
arrested on whatever charges can
be trumped up, McDew added. "I
have been arrested 27 times my-
self. I'm presently out of jail on

COLLEGE ROUNDUP:
Ask Wisconsin President

To Plan Fral
By MARTHA MacNEAL
MADISON-The Inter-Fraterni-
ty Council of the University of
Wisconsin has asked university
President Fred Harrington to or-
ganize a committee of faculty,
alumni and undergraduates to
study the entire fraternity system
and its relationship to the univer-
sity.
The study would include hous-
ing financing, expansion, local
autonomy and social activities and
would presumably clafiry the uni-
versity's attitude towards fraterni-
ties.
The Council cha ged that na-
tionals are unwilling to establish
new chapters and alumni unwill-
ing to contribute to local houses
where a chapter's existence may
be threatened.
* * *
CAMBRIDGE-Harvard Univer-
sity has decided to re-enter the
National Defense Education Act
student loan program and should
receive funds by December or Jan-
uary.
The university had originally
obected to the act and withdrawn
from its program because of its
recently removed provision that
applicants for loans must sign a
dsiclaimer of belief in any sub-
versive organization.

bond on a charge of 'criminal
anarchy'--which is a form of
treason," he continued.
McDew blasted the United
States justice department for its
"passive" role in the voting move-
ment. He said that SNCC, had
asked Attorney-General Robert
Kennedy for protection for a Ne-
gro witness to the killing of Lee,
but the attorney general had re-
fused.
"They said their hands were
tied. As a result, that witness went
back and committed perjury be-
cause he didn't want to die."
Traces History
McDew also traced a brief his-
tory of SNCC. He said it was born
in the sit-ins of 1960, which were
1 a r g e 1 y spontaneous activities.
From these incidents, integration-
ists in the South saw a need to
get together to "discuss common
problems and find a common di-
rection. Eventually, it became an
action organization, and decided
to specialize in voter registration.
McDew's discussion, held at a
Guild House dinner, was present-
ed in conjunction with the forma-
tion of a new student group,
"Friends of SNCC." Its organizer,
Martha Prescod, '65, said that the
group would help finance SNCC's
Southern projects, and work on
local discrimination problems.

By MARJORIE BRAHMS Y
"The blues is a way of looking
at life as well as a musical form,"
West coast blues singer Barbara
Dane said recently, discussing her
views on the genesis and musical
role of the blues.
"People growing up in a mech-
anical age are looking for some-
thing with a relation to human
beings. Blues is one of the most
expressive song styles yet invent-
ed," she said.
Right now the evolution of the
blues has gone from the Negro
spiritual to country blues to tra-
ditional jazz; then through the
Cites School m
Advantages
A small college is not a uni-
versity, and should not try to be
one, Prof. Allan 0. Pfnister of the
education school says.
Noting that there are many
pressures on small schools to try
to be everything to everybody,
Prof. Pfnister advises such colleges
to "resist these pressures by seek-
ing to be distinctive, offering a
limited number of majors and
working at some depth in these."
He points out that, because its
communications channels are rel-
atively uncomplicated, a small col-
lege can achieve an informed and
stimulated student body more eas-
ily than a complex large school.
"The small college also can ex-
ploit the sense of community and
can work closely with the students
if it wants to do so," Prof. Pfnister
adds.
A small college also can be a
more unique institution. It can
pursue more innovative campus-
wide programs and remain more
flexible than a bigger college, he
says.
However, these benefits are not
an automatic product of smallness,
Prof. Pfnister warns.

Benny Goodman swing period and
now is at the stage of folk blues.
"Now the blues are all over the
'Top 40 Tunes'," the singer said,
noting that in form these songs
are the blues but in content they
skirt around the real meaning of
the blues.
While on stage Miss Dane often
makes up material on the spot to
express her own feelings at the
moment. The blues which were
sung on the vaudeville stage were
composed beforehand with com-
plete verses and choruses. But
country blues, which she prefers,
are composed of verses which have
their own identity and the per-
former can choose from a vast li-
brary of verses.
"The song is never the same two
days in a row because I never feel
the same two days in a row," Miss
Dane commented.
She got her start in show busi-
ness with folk singer Pete Seeger
in 1946. "I cut my teeth singing
for the auto unions in Detroit,"
Miss Dane reminisced. From there
she went into blues singing, tour-
ing the northwest with comedian
Bob Newhart and singing mostly
on the West coast.

In an effort to relieve the grow-
ing burden of managerial duties
on its nurses, the University Hos-
pital has created a new "service
department."
A current shortage of nurses
has made it necessary for nurses
to handle transportation of pa-
tients, maintenance of supplies
and equipment and record keep-
ing. The new service department
will leave nurses free for more di-
rect patient care as it takes over
non-nursing activities.
The need for such changes was
recognized some two years ago,
after administrative studies of the
nursing shortage carried out by
Civic Theater
Gets Workshop
The Ann Arbor Civic Theater
has at last gained its long-sought
workshop through purchase of
property and buildings on N.
Washington from the City Coun-
cil.
The Civic Theater, which began
negotiations for the property nec-
essary for their workshop over a
year ago, was denied a petition
for leasing city land at nominal
cost at that time. Council ap-
proval of the purchase was greeted
with cheers from members of the
theater group.

Tonight at 8 P.M. HILLEL
presents
DR MARTIN DYCK, Assoc. Prof. of German
speaking on
"A Divergent Series of Moran Paradoxes"
Lecture No. 3 in its Series
on
"Moral Values Reflected in Great Literature"

Dr. Roger B. Nelson, associate di-
rector of University Hospital, Rho-
da Reddig Russell, director of
nursing services and dean of the
nursing school, and Virginia Mosh-
ier, associate director of nursing
services.
Dean Russell noted that the
study was aimed to "take a new
look at appropriate nursing duties
in the light of modern advances in
medical science and hospital man-
agement.,,
A pilot plan was put into opera-
tion according to recommendations
of a task force, headed by Arlene
Howe. The plan, first tried in
March, 1961, is expected to en-
compass the entire hospital by
September, 1964.
Managerial tasks in the new
plan were grouped "under a non-
nurse supervisor," said Mrs. Howe.
"The head nurse and her profes-
sional assistants will now devote
their entire attentions to giving
and improving patient care."

The service supervisors will head
groups of clerks, maids and por-
ters, who will be responsible for
all housekeeping functions, mes-
senger activities and patient trans-
portation.
The cost of the new system and
the number of nursing hours that
will be freed for patient care have
not yeti been determined.
Administrators at the University
hospital hope the new plan will
generally "make appropriate utili-
zation of nurses,"

WHAT PEOPLE, WHO KNOW, SAY ABOUT NSA:
TOM HAYDEN, farmer editor Michigan Doily, in COMMON SENSE: the Association
has done wonderful things on the American campus for fifteen years; this has been due
in part ... to a sometimes-manipulative elite of NSA "professionals" who have worked
as quasi-staff members for a few years," Clearly the trend seems to be away from
definitions of the "role of the student" which deter visible and partisan public action, ...
STEVEN ROBERTS in NATION: "The people who come to the Congresses, where NSA
policy is formed, are not representative of their student bodies, nor are the five national
officers and the staff members who "execute" policy from a rickety four-story building
