"It is necessary to view the de- veloping areas in the contexts and traditions in which the people move," he added. In studying these changing areas, an historical background, as well as a familiarity with pres- tic'ns and procedures which are of central importance in Western eadline Nears cultures may be quite irrelevant in studying the rest of the world's For ' Fees governments.

Agroomlist Claims Music timulates Growth of Corn ent events, is critical in under- standing what is being discard- ed and what is being kept, Prof. Scalapino continued. "A major problem for develop- ing societies is how to borrow what is new, and fit it to the require- ments of their society," he noted. "The local scholar must be an indigenous part of any new meth- od of study. He can operate at a much greater level of efficiency because of his cultural and linguis- tic proficiency." He said that pres- ent 1studies are hindered by an inadequate supply of primary in- formation. Prof. Scalapino noted that tute- lage is one concept that ties the non-Western world together: the concept of the responsibility of the few to lead the development of the many. Marx's Appeal Prof. Scalapino traced the ap- peal of Marxism to Asian intellec- tuals along these lines:. 1) Marxism is the "science" of rapid industrialization, the "sci- ence" of catching up. 2) It gives the non-Western in- tellectual a sense of relief from isolation. It defines the world in terms of common problems and provides an intellectual method of conformity and unity. 3) Marxism is the philosophy of optimism: it promises "the good life" at the end. 4) It provides a method of change that is practical and prag- matic., 5) Marxism is an easy ideology to understand. It is an easy route to intellectualism., ARTHUR W. BROMAGE ... metropolitan problems Asks Help For Cities Metropolitan service agencies, in which local governments have a strong voice, should be set up in the United States, Prof. Arthur Bromage, chairman of the political science department, said recently. Prof. Bromage, speaking to the Conference on Government of the National Municipal League in Washington, said the "home rule tradition in Michigan" makes city- county consolidation unlikely. In- stead, hesuggested an "open-end legislation" in which an urban area could set up a metropolitan service agency, tackling sewage disposal and water problems first. "The state of Washington has almost a model law in this re- spect," Prof. Bromage said. By JEFFREY CHASE The character of an opera de- termines whether it is better per- formed in the language of the country in which it is being per- formed, or in the original lan- guage in which the libretto was written, John S. White, associate director of the New York City Opera, said recently. The English translation has been developed by several smaller opera companies. Although the purpose of this is to bring the meaning of the presentation to a greater amount of people, the effect is to a degree destroyed since the educat- ed audience is used to the original language. When the opera has a light text and the music serves mainly to un- derline the melodic line, a presen- tation in the language of the aud- ience is preferred. In Mozart's "The Marriage of Figaro," for in- stance, much of the comedy is lost if the audience is unable to un- derstand the lines. It is unfair to the listeners if the performers do not sing in a language that will give them the fullest benefit of the witty lines, White explained. In Verdi's "Rigoletto," in which the music and text are integrated and the orchestral accompaniment Ohms To Address Zoology Seminar Jack Ohms of the National In- stitute of Health will discuss "The Immunological Response to Preg- nant Mare Serum Gonadotropin" in a zoology department seminar at 4 p.m. Wednesday in Rm. 1400, Chemistry Bldg. helps set the mood and augment the vocal portions, the vowel artic- ulation of the original language is all-important. This is one of the factors that gives grand opera its beauty, White remarked. A translation of the libretto would, obviously, not be a true rep- resentation of Verdi's creativity. Such music best fits the original, not a translation, he continued. Besides, opera-goers are so fa- miliar with the texts of grand opera, either from the libretto or the literary work upon which the libretto was based, that it is not necessary for a performance in any language other than the orig- inal, White added. Seek*Petitions .For LSA Unit Petitions for positions on the literary college steering committee will be available next Monday in Rm. 1210, Angell Hall. The petitions must be turned in by Dec. 6. An open meeting of the committee will be held at 4 p.m. of the same day for petitioners. Petitioners will be interviewed on Saturday, Dec. 8. The steering' committee meets weekly with faculty members to discuss issues concerning literary college students. In the past, the committee has initiated such pro- grams as the junior year abroad. At present, the committee is dis- cussing the proposed new small college, ways of improving coun- seling for students, and criticisms of the present credit-hour sys- tem for upperclassmen. Dial 5-6290 n ENDING WEDNESDAY * JACKIE Until recently the European opera houses presented operas al- most exclusively in the language of the country, because the singers had no time to learn foreign lan- guages. Often, in a performance which included a guest artist, the guest sang his or her part in one lan- guage while the other members of the cast sang in the language of the country, White noted. With the advent of the airplane has come the phenomenon of a world opera star. Because this person sings in many countries the opera companies have decided, to avoid unnecessary confusion, to perform grand opera iin the orig- inal language of the text. *Pronounced GIEE-0 y THANKSGIVING SHOW * - y . . . . . . . .
