Guggenheim
Award Is Won
By Fredenthal
Detroit Artists' Paintings
On Exhibition Here;,
To Be Criticized Sunday
For the second time in two years,
David Fredenthal, whose works are
now on exhibition in Alumni Mem-
orial Hall, has been named winner
of the John Simon Guggenheim
Memorial Fellowship, it was an-
nounced last Sunday. The fund will
permit him to spend a year of re-
search and study in his favorite field,
experimentation in tempera and oil
murals.
The 25-year-old Detroit artist has
had to undergo all the traditional
struggles of an artist. He studied
art at Southeastern and Cass Tech-
nical High School. When his parents
urged him to abandon art in favor
of a steady job, he left home and
found work in a print shop at $4 a
week. While he was still a student
he was awarded a scholarship at the
Cranbrook Academy of Art.
His work in Detroit factories,
abroad lake steamers and in CCC
camps provided him with many of
the subjects for his paintings. Four
years ago a $500 fellowship in the
Museum of Modern Arts enabled him
to study in France and Italy.
Although eight years ago an exhi-
bition of his work was refused him
by New York art patrons who feared
premature success might hamper la-
ter accomplishments, critics through-
out the country have since hailed his
work'as that of a genius. Among his
better known works are the murals
in the Detroit Naval Armory and a
mural which he recently completed
for the New York World's Fair.
Prof. Jean Paul Slusser, of the Col-t
lege of Architecture, will discuss
Fredenthal's work in a gallery talk at{
2:30 p.m. Sunday in Alumni Mem-
orial Hall. The talk will be open to
the public.t

Young Communist
The Young Communist League
stands for the support and extension
of democracy for the broadcast sec-
tions of the people-students, work-
ers, intellectuals as well as all minor -
ity groups.
We believe that the problems which
face young people today-unprece-
dented unemployment, war, class and
racial oppression-will be complete-
ly solved only after a full program
of democracy for the broadest sec-
cepted by the peoples of the world.
We know that our full program can
be advanced, not by "radical" phrase-I
mongering, but only by protecting andI
extending democracy.
For this reason we favor the main-
tenance and extension of New Deal
measures providing security against
the threat of reaction and fascist ag-
gression. We support the cooperative'
movement for obtaining better stu-
dent living conditions and lower cost
housing, books, and eating facili-
ties. We support the American Stu-
dent Union, the Student Senate, and
other broad, democratic organizations
serving the educational, economic,
and social needs of students.

develops, as is true of any representa-
tive body, but it should be controlledf
in order to prevent too-wide diver-I
gence of opinion .nd thus hinder ef-
fective action. Compromise should be
the norm.
Paul C. Robertson, '40 E
University Coalition j
We have watched the activities of
the Student Senate since its inaugura-
tion a year ago.
We believe that the discussion on
the Senate floor has indicated a
growing interest in University affairs
and less emphasis on national and
foreign affairs as the Senators have
become more experienced.
We see in this a healthy trend to-
ward the time when Senators will de-
vote the greater part of their efforts
to campus affairs and very little to
sending cablegrams to Hitler.
We will strive, if elected, to do all
we can to maintain this trend.
We favor a liberal stand on all Uni-
versity matters.

Hare System Of Proportional
Representation Is explained
P. R. Method With Single
Transferable Selection
To Be Used Tomorrow
An explanation of the Hare sys-]
tem of proportional representation
with the single transferable vote, to
be used in the Student Senate elec-
tions tomorrow as issued by Edward
Magdol, '39, director of elections, is
as follows:
1. All ballots will be thoroughly
mixed and then sorted in packages
according to the first choice ex-
pressed on each. The total numberl
of valid ballots shall be divided by
the figure 16 to give the quota neces-
sary for election. If any candidate
shall have received a number of first
choice votes equal to or exceeding the
quota, such candidates shall be de-
clared elected, and his surplus over
the quota, if any, shall be distributed
to the second choice candidates by
the use of the following formula:
Vote Transfer
Number transferred equals surplus
times candidate's second choice vote
divided by the total number of sec-
ond choices. Thus, if candidates
Jones receives 42 votes and the quota
is 25, he has a surplus of 17, which
would be distributed by the above
formula. If Smith had obtained 11
second choices among these 42 bal-
lots marked with Jones as the first
choice, Smith would receive' a num-
ber of transferred ballots as follows:
Seventeen (total surplus available
for distribution) times 11 (number of
second choices for Smith on Jones'
ballots) divided by 42 (total number
of Jones' ballots).
Lowest Counted Out
2. After the distribution of the sur-
plus votes of all candidates receiving
first choice votes equal to or ex-
ceeding the quota, provided there are
still vacancies to be filled, the can-
didate receiving the lowest number,
of first choice votes is declared de-
feated and his ballots are transferred
to the packages of the candidate who
is marked as second choice on the
ballot. This process of defeating un-
til the lowest candidate and trans-
ferring his votes is continued until
16 student senators have been electe k
with the quota or until there remain
only enough candidates to fill the re-
maining number of vacancies.

WPA Results Shown

A new exhibit has been set up on

ers from Alice in Wonderland, Robin
the ballot box to Room 304 in the
Union. The responsibility for bring-
ing in the ballot box will rest with
the clerk who has charge of the poll-
ing place at the time voting ceases.
b. The ballots after being distribut-
ed into packages on the basis of the
first choice, shall be numbered to give
a check on the total number of bal-
lots credited to any one candidate. If
additional ballots are added to a can-
didate's package as the result of
transfers of elected candidate's sur-
pluses or of defeated candidate's
votes, these too, shall be numbered
consecutively.
c. In the distribution of elected
candidate's surpluses, the specific
ballots transferred after the number
to be transferred has been determined
in accordance with the above for-
mula, shall be those on the top of
the candidate's package, that is, the
highest numbered ones.
d. The count will be public and all
interested persons are invited to be
present.
e. Cases of dispute over the validity
of any ballot cast, or over the count-
ing system shall be decided by the
Directors of Elections.
ate Bill 115 passes the State Legisla-
ture.
The bill, which provides for county
cooperation in the construction of
parkways, parks and bathing beaches
throughout the "Detroit Metropoli-
tan District," was prepared by the
Huron-Clinton Parkway Committee,
which numbers among its members
Dean Samuel T. Dana of the school
of forestry, Prof. Edwin C. Goddard
of the law school, Prof. Henry E.
Riggs of the civil engineering depart-
ment and Prof. Harlow O. Whitte-
more of the department of land'scape
design.
Senate Bill 115 has already passed
the Senate unanimously and was
unanimously recommended for pas-
sage by the House Conservation
Committee. It is now under consider-
ation\by the House Metropolitan Com-
mittee.
The bill permits voters in the five
counties, which contain half the
state's population, to create an au-
thority in the regular November elec-
tion of 1940. This commission would
have four specific functions: educa-
tion, promotion, planning and ad-
ministration.
