'THE MICHIGAN DAILY TUESDAY, OCTOBER 29, 1963 THE MCHIGN DAIY T~SDAY.OCTOER 29 t9A Kovach, Rao Interpret Performances Observes Future Need For Amending Charter By GAIL BLUMBERG "We have tried to combine the color and entertainment of native Hungarian dance with classical ballet to produce something new which will appeal to an American audience," Hungarian ballet dan- cer Nora Kovach said recently. Miss Kovach and her 'husband Istvan Rabovsky starred in the Hungarian Ballet's "Bihari," seen Sunday at Rackham Aud. Most Hungarian folk companies are amateur, Miss Kovach con- tinued. "Although they are won- derfully spirited, we hoped to pro- vide the authentic dance on a more professional level. Change Plans "We had to change our plans as it is extremely hard to find Hun- garian dancers who have had a ballet .training," she noted. Miss Kovach and Rabovsky are. themselves free Hungarians who performed with the Leningrad Ballet until their defection to West Berlin in 1953. "The Russian dance training is generally more strenuous than the American, because they have more money to spend through government support." Thus the dancer can be more devoted to his profession than in ,this country, Miss 'Kovach noted. More Aware "The Russian people are more aware of the arts than are Ameri- cans, primarily because they have more of an artistic education. We have a broader range of enter- tainment inshows,hmovies and. television here, so that there is not yet the interest in ballet and music," Miss Kovach explained. Furthermore, the Russian ballet has a long tradition which has not yet come to American dance, she added. Cultural exchange is a good thing for the development of the dance. There are many things that Russian dancers can learn from the American dance, Miss Kovach said. It is of utmost importance that the United States government of- fer more aid, because money is needed before any real develop- ment can take place, she added.

In addition it has opened, until this spring, two dirt lots, W-3 and W-4, to students for free parking and the Coliseum for daily, non-storage, parking at no charge. It is possible to purchase per- mits for spaces now in the park- ing structure for $10 for this season in the automobile regula- tions office. These were formerly acquired from the Student Driver' Regulations Office for $15 apiece. SGC is subsidizing five dollars of the cost. If all spaces are sold the Council intends to lease a second floor in the parking struc- ture and rent them also. Parking facilities in lot W-7, located on Thompson St. near E. Williams St., will be open in approximately two'weeks for all registered cats. SGC is also investigating the possibilities of building a parking structure just for students, but such an action is about five years in the future, SGC President Rus- sell Epker, '64BAd, said. for the Hungarian Ballet's "Bi- hari," Miss Kovach and Rabovsky have travelled extensively with a program of classical ballet. The University provides a mar- velous audience, Miss Kovach said, "I like to perform before young people, because they are so sin- cere and enthusiastic in their re- ception. I would like to do a tour strictly for students at some time," she said. Miss Kovach and Rabovsky danced in a program which was a mixture of classical ballet with the native dances of Hungary, ac- companied by a gypsy instru- mental ensemble. The unique Hungarian instru- ment, the cymbalum, a wire- strung instrument played with mallets, was used in a sole role during the dance performance. By ROBERT HIPPLER "Every change in the functions of the United Nations thus far has been by evolution, without amendment to the original char- ter," Mrs. Marion McVitty noted author and lecturer, said Satur- day at the Friends Meeting House, during a conference of the United World Fedelarists. "Eventually, however, amend- ment to the charter, not practic- able today, will be necessary. Un- til then a plan of transition be- tween evolution and amendment is the key to continued success of the United Nations in weather- ing the winds of change," she said. Mrs. McVitty was the principal speaker at the regional fall con- ference of the United World Fed- eralists and is the accredited ob- server at the UN for the World Association of Federalists. 'Police Functions' 'The recent impartial 'police functions' of the UN, such as those in the Suez and the Congo, along with the responsible parts played by new members, notably Tunisia and Morocco, have been the pri- mary successes of the UN in deal- ing with changing world ondi- tions," she noted. The United World Federalists is an organization which seeks im- plementation of the United States long term foreign policy goal of development of rule of law among nations, with the United ,Nations serving as a framework for a federation of independent and sovereign nations, "A good plan of transition for the UN could be based on a recent proposal by the Nordic nations concerning the race problem in the Union of South Africa," Mrs. McVitty continued. Favored Sanctions "This proposal would apply widely favored sanctions en eco- nomic and military aid to South Africa, but. would also have a positive side-it would assure the South African white that if they agreed to end their discrimina- tion, an importial UN police force would be deployed, insuring the protection of the rights of all in- dividuals, Negro and white alike," she said. , "The Nordic plan, which would tailor UN forces preparatory to crisis, could lead to a transitional agreement giving the United Na- tions the power-for 3 to 6 months at a time, in' anticipation of or during crises-to forcefully deal with individuals impeding UN ac- tion," Mrs. McVitty said. It would also "block outside arms flowing in, tending to cause or further a crisis," she noted. "Such powers would have been useful before and during the Con- go crisis."' Transition "The transitional action would serve the UN until a charter amendment could be passed creat- ing a standing police force. Such a force is impracticable now be- cause of financial and political disagreements among member na. tions." Mrs McVitty added that "the fact that UN troops were impartial in both the 1957 Suez and 1960 Congo crises could be instrumen- tal in allaying the fears of enough nations to pass both the Nordic and transitional plans." The Suez and Congo actions are in contrast to the guardian-of- the-oppressed efforts that dom- inated the Korean War crisis. In those two crises, unlike Korea, the UN tried principally to pacify both sides, create law and order in the country, and work out a settle- ment, she commented. Level-Headed "Other sources of confidence have been the level-headed guid- ance of the Tunisian and Moroc- can delegations during the' Congo crisis, and the wisdom shown by the African nations in not boy- cotting the UN General Assembly in the -midst of the furor over South Africa's racial policies. These are characteristic of the commendable actions that have been taken by the newly admitted countries in recent years," Mrs. McVitty said. Other speakers at the confer- ence were William Bethea, na- tional director of the United World Federalists, Walter H. Grossfeld, chairman of the Detroit chapter and Mrs. Judith Reynolds, member of the Federalist executive council. Bethea spoke on the workings of the United World Federalist lobbies in Washington. "Principal duties of the lobbies are to con- tact newspapers, television and radio stations and magazines by means of continual letters and press releases," he said. Crucial Issues "Lobbies also act to stimulate letters to Washington concerning crucial issues. Letters to the Cap- itol give congressmen an idea of what the concerns are back home," Bethea added. Grossfeld gave emphasis to the potential power of the individual in making know and taking action on his views. "Active participation in organizations supporting your opinion, as well as letters to the editor and to congressmen, are ways of making your presence felt," he noted. "If you funnel your energies into the field of interest to you, the results can be very gratifying." Speaking of the growing influ- ence of the United World Federal- ists on Capital Hill, Mrs. Reynolds noted that "the actions of our lobbies inWashington and across the country were very important in the passage in Congress of the $100 million UN bond issue, as well as in theUSenate ratification of the test ban treaty." The regional fall conference, which was open to the public, was attended by United World Federalist members from Michi- gan and Indiana, as well as by a contingent of students. Debate Teams Take .
