C ......, Lxx, No.7 ANN ARBOR, MICHIGAN, SATURDAY, JANUARY 9, 1960 FIVE CENTS. SIX PAGE { F _ ... P rofile: WILLIAM By THOMAS HAYDEN William Stirton bent low over his desk and graphed a time axis. "This line represents the in- creasing age of people starting in Jobs. This line represents the lowering age of retirement. This one represents decreasing work hours per week." The lines converged gradu- ally, creating 'a small rectangle in the center of the sheet. "That center rectangle is the sum total of professional work time. It's decreasing steadily, and conversely, all the space around it is growing larger. And it's that outside space-'leisure,' some call it-that I'm worried about." Cites Civic Needs The vice-president and di- rector of the Dearborn Center raised his eyes from the free- hand sketch. "That ever-in- creasing space is the time when people talk and read and write.. It's the reason why more out- board motors are being sold. It opens up time not only for out- boards, but for community af- fairs. '', "The education of a people. has to encompass this whole area. I would concern -myself with education for the total utilization of the time people will be on earth." Judging from his day 'to day work, Stirton has little leisure time. He was hired in 1956 to handle certain aspects of Uni- versity development and to act as a liaison man with the Leg- islature. Since then he has tak- en over the post of director of the new Dearborn experiment in education. Several Assignments Between his frequent trips from Ann Arbor to Dearborn, Stirton finds time for his nu- merous other duties, including. his assignments on the execu- tive committee of Citizens for Michigan and the board of directors of American Motors Corp. When not working, Stirton turns to flowers. "I spend all my free time in my greenhouse. You can com- pletely unwind there. You re- lax and become a person out- side the workaday world.: Some find it in books or music: I find the ultimate solace and reas- surance in my flowers." Strange for an engineer? Stirton replies with a flat no. He objects to "too much talk. about compartmentalizing, ,about breaking the 'scientist' and the 'liberal arts' man into different camps.' Beauty Everywhere "I cannot see why the man of science should be thought of as lacking things of the spirit. Beauty is all pervading. Those that don't see i$ in both the -David Giitrow ri RTON abstract and in the concrete are myopic." "r Stirton feels it is "terrifically important" that engineers have. closer exposure to liberal arts. training. " - - To prepare a better citizenry is a primary task of education, he feels. Free Society's Need "The requisites for a free society are common wisdom ' and uncommon ability, so that each person may play several roles with competence and one with distinction. A free society requires more leaders than any better citizenry than ever be- fore. Education doesn't give a man the right to be parasitical, but heightens his obligation to serve the community." Some of these same feelings inspired the Citizen's for Michigan Committee.. . During World War IT Stirton. directed the War Training Program in the Detroit public schools, which trained 337,000 men and women for war pro- duction jobs in the Detroit area. He became friends with r George Romney, now president of American Motors Corp. Seek State Group< "Both of us were thinking ' of some sort of statewide group, based on a need to get the facts together and let the people look at them.". See PROFILE, Page 2 Anti-Nazi Germans aggi BERLIN VP' - West Germany's first major anti-Nazi demonstra- tion in more than a quarter ofa century rolled through the streets of Berlin last night. Authorities were cracking down on neo-Nazi activities and out- buirsts of anti-semitism reflected in anti-Jewish slogans on walls from Hamburg to Hong Kong. Police estimated 10,000 West Berliners, mostly young people, began their mile - long parade despite weather near the freezing point. Thousands more joined them as they marched. They car- ried banners reading "against race hate" and "Nazis get out.". Many carried torches. West Germans could remeniber no such anti-Nazi parade since Adolf Hitler took power in 1933. New anti-Jewish activity1 throughout the Western world consisted largely of painting swastikas and slogans on syna- gogues and Jewish homes. Com- munists denied it had .spread to their part of the world, but East Germany's Red Premier Otto Groetwohl accused "imperialist and military elements" in West Germany of trying to incite anti- semitism in his domain. More Incidents Evidence appeared that the in- cidents in Germany had inspired others in Italy. Naples police found swastikas with the German words "Juden raus" (Jews get out) in the central part of the city. West German authorities took these steps to discourage neo- Nazi activity. 1) The state of Rhineland- Palantinate banned a public con- vention of the radical rightist German Reich party scheduled in Kaiserslautern for Sunday. Wil-' helm Meinberg, a former general in the Nazi's elite SS and leader of the party, was to have addressed it. The government noted that two members of the party are under arrest for smearing swas- tikas on a Cologne synagogue Christmas eve. It was this incident' that touched off the worldwide wave of vandalism. 2) A West Berlin German court set what it called an example and sentenced Alfred Straats, 49 years; old, a city housing official, to 17 months in prison for giving the Nazi salute before rightist youths in a tavern this week. He ad- mitted this, and saying: "Heil Hitler." The Nazi salute is barred under allied military occupation laws for West Berlin., A world human rights organi- zation called yesterday for a, United Nations investigation of "the present outbreak of racial, and religious hostility" noted in, many nations. League Disturbed . The International League for the Rights of Man made public a letter asking for this action froma' the United Nations Subcommis-; sion on Prevention of Discrimina- tion and Protection of Minorities. The League also asked for a con- demnatory resolution.I Its letter, signed by Chairman Roger Baldwin and Vice-Presi- dent Max Beer, said the League was "deeply disturbed by the pres- ent outbreak of racial and reli- gious hostility." Without men-' tioning any particular country,1 it added that such movements must be stopped in their begin- ning. Ike Budget Backed Here; Democrats Apprehensive +4 44 ..,,y. .

'ENALTY: Unvrst Taspat Cheating Botanical Garden Site Students By RUTH EVENHUIS The University is transplanting the Botanical Gardens to a new Aisnsiem EJ A 200-acre site five miles fromt the center of the campus ls been acquiredEthrough a donation by Regent Frederick C. Matthaei and acqirY By KATHLEEN MOORE The stiffest penalty for cheat- ing that the literary college im- poses - expulsion - was handed down to three students this week. All first-semester seniors, they will not be allowed to re-enter the literary college after the current semester ends without approval from the college's Administrative Board, which determined their penalty, A fourth student will graduate on schedule next month, but like his companions, will receive a failing grade in the journalism course where the cheating was discovered. It was the first time this se- mester that the Board has used the "fairly severe penalty" of ex- pulsion although 12 to 14 casesof cheating have cropped up so far, James H. Robertson, associate dean of the literary college and chairman of the judiciary group, said yesterday. The quartet, according to evi- dence submitted to the Board by their professor, used corrected an- swers from an old essay examina- tion in completing a current test in their journalism class. As for their future, Robertson explained that any of them could petition the Board of four faculty and three student members for re-entry when 'he feels he has evidence that he will be a "stu- dent who'will meet without ques- tion his responsibilities in the. college." Expulsion Is usually reserved for "two-time losers" or in cases where "the Board is convinced the students are not. coming clean," Robertson indicated. "If the student simply regrets. getting caught, then there's no place for him here," he said. Relatively few cases of plagiar- ism and cheating handled by the Board end in expulsion for the student. Judicial action, Robert- son pointed out, ranges from "possible exoneration" if nothing but circumstantial evidence is available, to a failing grade for the paper, examination or course, to definite or temporary expulsion. from the purchase of surrounding farmland. A faculty planning committee is in charge of its development. Until state funds are.avail- able, the project will be advanced as far as posstible with funds other . than those directly appropriated by the state. EUnder Construction The central two-fifths of the building complex is presently un- der construction. It includes the service building, two greenhouses, and service corridor, and a re- search-teaching building. This is insufficient to accommodate the present program but will give re- lief where the inadequacies have been greatest. Future development will include a research greenhouse, a labora- tory administration building, six chambers for controlled environ- ment, and facilities for graduate and undergraduate instruction. The new facilities replace the present University Botanical Gar- dens, located within the city. The director, Prof. ,A. Geoffrey Norman of the botany depart- ment, explained that it no longer meets the requirements of a grow- ing program and has greenhouses obsolete in construction and in- adequate in size. 'More Potential' Prof. Norman added that the new site "has a great dealnmore potential, botanically, than the old area. "Our main goal," he said, will be to protect the natural' setting while accommodating with- in it the greenhouse facilities and specimen plantings which are es- sential elements of botanicalgar- dens." The new Botanical Gardens will afford ample space for introduc- tion of plant collections of various types, and for substantial field plots for experimentation in ge- netics and 'other research requiring annual or short-duration plant- ings, Prof. Norman noted. The gardens will include a permanent plant collection dis- play accessible to visiting groups, students and the public., In addition to botanical work, the new center will serve as a field laboratory for instruction in areas' outside the plant sciences, such as outside the plant sciences. 5. rrr r:5^Y : {.:3 a. r::.. .. .......... .....

No Set Policy With orkers By HENRY LEE The University does not bargain collectively with the two non- academic employees' unions re- presented In Ann Arbor. But it tries to provide personnel policies and procedures which will assure the employees of the Uni- versity of good working condi- tions, fair wages and a feeling of security. The Building Service Employees Intern'ational Union Local 378 has represented University non-aca- demic personnel for 10 years, while the American Federation of State and County Municipal Employees Local 1583 has only. been here for, one year. University Personnel Director C. M. Ailmand proceded to de- fine the University's relation with labor organizations that represent some of its non-academic work- thereof, we do not wish to receive any benefit of the organization." According to William Town- send, '61E, president of Hinsdale House Council, the council voted Sept. 22 not to accept the schol- arship. Last year Hinsdale with- drew from IHC complaining about the inefficiency of the organiza- tion, the gross amount of money IHC spent with no direct benefit to the men's houses and, the fact that IHC did not coordinate acti- vities among the houses. To Stpdy Problems Earlier this semester, realizing IHC's problems, Chertkov said a study would be made by a nine- member committee of IHC to de- termine how the body could be improved. . He said a move was suggested that the Presidium, consisting of all the house presidents and the three quadrangle presidents, - be disbanded in favor of an inter- quadrangle coordinating commit- tee which would be composed of a few representatives of each quadrangle.

DEFENSE SHINES IN LEAGUE WIN: Wolverines Outskate Tech Huskies, 5-1 By MIKE GILLMAN An iron-clad defense, a change of lines and a brilliant job of goal keeping by Jim Coyle combined to give Michigan a bruising 5-1 win over Michigan Tech here last night. The Wolverines, who will be meeting the revenge-minded Huskies again tonight, got off on the right foot with an early tally and were never in trouble from there on in. At 8:09 of the opening frame, de- fenseman John Palenstein rifled home his second goal of the cam- paign while Tech was shorthanded to give Michigan a lead' it never surrendered. With that 25-foot screen shot by a defenseman opening the night's scoring, the near-capacity- crowd should have known that it was going to be a night for the defense. The Wolverine back men gave Coyle near-perfect support as they allowed the Huskies to fire but 20 shots on goal the entire evening. Defense Stars "The defense is stopping as many shots as the goalie," plaintively a
