Bourgeois?
"They never thought we'd do
anything so bourgeois," an Os-
terweil resident said.
The women's cooperative is
reportedly the first to compete
in intramural volleyball. "We
actually play against sorority
girls and everybody," another
girl added.

CITY:
To uPlan
Expansion
The County Planning Commis-
sion and the Ann Arbor City Plan-
ning Commission met in a joint
session last night to discuss a pre-
liminary plan for the long range
development of Ann Arbor town-
ship.
Work on the plan was under-
taken by the commissions after
FHA authorities refused earlier
this year to approve homes in the
township until the area had a
plan.
The plan, which has been given
tentative approval by the Ann
Arbor township, calls for the "ex-
tension of land uses beyond the
city and integrates the city and
the township into a unified de-
velopment scheme," according to
Chief Planner E. F. Drabkowski.
Drabkowski said the plan "in-
corporates the inherent character-
istics for which the Ann Arbor
area is widely known and remem-
bered - rolling residential home
sites, a picturesque river valley,
open spaces and parks and the
cultural and research leadership
of the University of Michigan.
The development plan includes
three elementary schools, one
high school, one junior high
school, a research and research-
industry strip near the proposed
Eastbelt Bypass as well as a 20-
acre shopping center. There will
also be a 350-acre park strip near
Plymouth Avenue.
Bridge Course
Begins Today
The first session of the League-
sponsored bridge lessons will be
tonight from 7 to 9 at the League.
The eight week course is open to
all, and Mrs. W. McLean will be
the instructor.

BRIGITTE
By PHILIP SHERMAN
The University's Japanese7
Studies Center is making a small
effort to counter the aftereffects
of Typhoon Vera, which recently
struck Japan.
The storm, which did great
damage, has been called on of the'
worst in modern history.
Jack Moyer, Grad., said yester-
day that the Center has estab-
lished a Typhoon Relief Fund for
aiding the Japanese in their re-
pair and rebuilding task.
$90 in Contributions
So ;ar, contributions have come
only from Center associates, and
total about $90, but Moyer empha-
sized that public support could,'be
important.
Contributors may come to the
Japanese Studies Center, 633 Ha-
ven Hall. The collection will close
next Wednesday.
He said that most of the Center
members have been in Japan and
just wanted to do a little about the
situation.
Small Amount Helps
The money raised, he com-
mented, would not be a great part
of the total monies raised for
relief, even a small amount would
make a dffierence.
All money collected will be put
into the relief fund sponsored by
the Asahi Evening News, a Tokyo
English language newspaper.
Many of the Japanese news-
papers collect such funds, Moyer
added.
Grain Available
He said he did not know of any
other such funds being collected
in the United States, but said the
U. S. government has made grain
available.
Moyer, who was ;in Japan for
seven years, commented on the
'attitude of the people towards the
typhoon.
There is a certain degree of
fatalism about the typhoons, he
said, since they come every year,
but this does not keep the people
from doing all possible to safe-
guard their homes and possessions.
Protection Inadequate
There has been some anti-gov-
ernment feeling too after the
istorms, he said, since at times
iflood protection was felt to be
inadequate.
Last weekend, 25,000 people were
still clinging to rooftops in Na-
goya, Japan's third largest city
because of floods that devastated
the area in the wake of the winds.
Vera struck Sept. 26, with 138-
mile-per-hour winds in the heavily
populated central Japan.
On the first day, 12,000 homes

were flooded and 13 were esti-
mated dead.
The next day, 1,250 were dead
and over 1.1 million were home-
less.
In Nagoya, one of the hardest
hit cities, seven ships were
grounded and the whole area was
called a "sea of the dead."
By last Saturday, the total dead
had reached almost 4,000.
Aid Homeless
Japanese troops and police,
aided by American military per-
sonnel, were sorting out the dead,

aiding the homeless and beginning
the task of cleaning up.
Food distribution services were
beginning to get in high gear, but
rice was being black-marketed at
almost five times the legal price.
Only one American airman was
injured, but over one million dol-
lars in damage had been done to
military installations..
Typhoons are the 50-to-100 mile
in diameter storms which rise in
the Pacific in autumn, and are
analagous to the hurricanes of the
West Indies.
To Discuss.
Soviet Union
University study in the Soviet
Union will be the topic of a dis-
cussion today at the University.
The talk will be held at 8 p.m.
in Auditorium B, Angell Hall, and
is to be sponsored by the Com-
mittee on the Program on Russian
studies.
Leading the discussion will be
Michael Luther of the University's
history department and Harold
Swayze of the political science de-
partment. Both were exchange fel-
lows at the Moscow State Univer-
sity during 'the 1958-59 academic
year.
Play Copies
To Be Given
To Libhrary
Copies of the "Diary of Anne
Frank" written in 17 different lan-
guages and a facsimile of the
original "Diary" will be presented
to the Undergrad Library on be-
half of 20th Century Fox.
James A. Davis, director of the
International Center, will accept
the books so that they may be
dispilay ed at the Center.
Last weekend, the Ann Arbor
Civic Theater presented the play
"The Diary of Ann Frank."

IAPA 'Urges
Press Attack,
The Inter-American Press Asso-
ciation: has recommended an edi-
torial attack on "the, bureaucratic
interpretation of so-called 'execu-
tive privilege' in the handling of
news by the United States Federal
Government.
The IAPA further urged that a
determined effort be made to con-
tinue the people's "right to know"
in the United States.
It recommended that the presi-
dent of the IAPA write to the
American Newspaper Publishers
'Association, "calling attention to
the hazard which confronts pub-
lishers in the United States due to
the Internal Revenue Service
rulings. These rulings deny the
tax deductability of certain adver-
tising by private utilities and
cooperative advertising by manu-
facturers, and to urge their elected
representatives to reintroduce leg-
islation to nullify these rulings."
A country-by-country survey
conducted by the IAPA's Freedom
of the Press Committee reports
that the governments of Trujillo's
Dominican Republic, Paraguay,
Nicaragua and Bolivia are not
democratic because: of violations
of freedom of the press and arbi-
trary restrictions on news publi-
cations.
