She is also a notary public, of special service to those voting by absentee ballot at election time. "It's largely a matter of know- ing where to find out when I don't know the answer," Mrs. Legg com- mented regarding the necessity for an outstanding memory in her work. Students with questions seem to have this faculty as well - when they don't know the answer-they consult Mrs. Legg. Mayor Creal Favors Hiring Handicapped Ann Arbor Mayor Cecil O. Creal has proclaimed next week as "Em- ploy the Physically Handicapped Week." The action by the mayor is part of an annual state and nationwide campaign to attract employers to the advantages of employing phy- sically handicapped workers. Creal and the Ann Arbor office of the Michigan Employment Se- curity Commission are working with President Dwight D. Eisen- hower's Committee on Employ- ment of the Physically Handi- capped. The National Association of Manufacturers and the AFL-CIO, also taking part in the campaign,' are currently developing plans to employ handicapped workers on industrial jobs. Prof. Felheil 'Dr. Zhivag "I wish that students were as interested in some other things as they are in this book," Prof. Mar- vin Felheim of the English de- partment told the 120 students at- tending "A Discussion of Doctor Zhivago" Monday at the Under- graduate Library. Although he said he was not overly impressed with the book, Prof. Felheim expressed concern not at students' reading it for their pleasure, but for reasons of "social prestige." His comments on the book were contested by many of the students present and he encouraged stu- dents to attend the next discus- sion of the book by Prof. Robert Magidoff, who will present a dif- ferent aspect of the novel. Discuss Later Prof. Magidoff will discuss the book as an outgrowth of Paster- nak's poetry. The book is Pasternak's first and only novel - not an entirely successful venture, Prof. Felheim noted. Pasternak employed a ro- mantic style adapted from his poetry, which is at this date for- eign to the novel, he said. Poetic symbols are difficult to reconcile , to realistic episodes, Prof. Felheim continued. While the poet is concerned not so much with his characters, but their sym- bolic meaning, a novelist must be concerned with drawing a good biography of the central charac- ter. Not Successful Prof. Felheim indicated that perhaps Pasternak failed to do this. "About the only thing we know about Zhivago's person is that he has a turned-up nose. Ile is a character more in the epic than novel tradition," he said. But while Zhivago himself might be an epic type character, m Discusses 0' in Speech the book, Prof. Felhelm believes, is not a successful epic type novel. The book was a complex one to begin with and the problems involved in it were added to by a poor translation and its philo- sophical and religious implica- tions. To Discuss Journalism Prof. Carl Lindstrom of journalism department will : the Reading and Discussion se nar today. The topic of this seminar wil "Journalism: Its Social Relat ship." The seminar will be I at 7:30 p.m. in the Undergradt Library Honors Lounge. The primary book for this se nar is "Peril and Promise" Gerald W. Johnson. In fact, "I the book an Prof. Felheim; simply didn't find entertaining one," finished.

By JEAN SPENCER The poised and charming young womari who occupies the central desk in the lobby of the Adminis- tration Building is often one of the first and last persons to come in contact with University students. "I like to welcome them and send them home happy," Mrs. Dorothy, Legg said, summing up the philosophy underlying her competent handling of a most de- manding job: receptionist at the Administration Building. "Basically, it's a public relations job," Mrs. Legg remarked, after pausing to direct a harried stu- dent to the Athletic Building. She added that no receptionist had been intended for the build- ing, completed in 1948. Soon after, its opening, however, it was real- ized that a full time person could be kept remarkably busy answer- ing questions for puzzled students. Mrs. Legg had "retired forever" when the University persuaded her to return to work. Her background as a former University student, employe and Ann Arbor resident since 1931 amply qualify her for her position. ACCLAIMED BY PROFOUNDLY MOVED audiences throughout the world.

College enrollment continues to spiral upward. The need for more classrooms and more teachers grows more desperate daily. But classrooms, alas, do not spring up like mushrooms-nor teachers like May flies. So what must we do while we build more classrooms and train more teachers? We must get better use out of the classrooms and teachers we now have. That's what we must do.. This column, normally a vehicle of good-humored foolery, will today forsake laughter to examine the crisis in higher education. My sponsors, the makers of Philip Morris Cigarettes, as bonny a bunch of tycoons as you will see in a month of Sun- days, have given cheerful consent to this departure. Oh, splendid chaps they are-the makers of Philip Morris, fond of home, mother, porridge, the Constitution and country fiddling I Twinkly and engaging they are, as full of joy, as brimming with goodness, as loaded with felicity as the cigarettes they bring you in two handy packages--the traditional soft pack and the crushproof flip-top box. How can we make better use of existing campus facilities? The answer can be given in one word--peedup! Speed up the educa- tional process-streamline courses. Eliminate frills. Sharpen. Shorten.

(An added benefit to be gained from this suggestion is that once you speed up waltz time, campus proms will all be over by ten p.m. With students going home so early, romance will languish and mar- riage counsellors can be transferred to the Buildings and Grounds Department. Also, houses now used for married students can be returned to the School of Animal Husbandry.) ALGEBRA-If X always equals twenty-four, much time- consuming computation can be eliminated.
