Blakeman, University religious counselor. Speaking to the Religious Educa- tion Association of the United States and Canada, Dr. Blakeman said, "Re- ligion at the University of Michigan is treated as a field of scholarship, but the courses cut through the vari- ous departments rather than being seperately organized." Explains Position "Religion, as such," he pointed out, "is as permissable in the curriculum of state institutions as political sci- ence. It is the sectarian emphasis in the one case and partisan bias in the other which is excluded from the teaching schedule of state educators." Dr. Blakeman contrasted the Michigan Approach which is also identified with the Universities of California and Indiana, with four different attitudes reflected in the major institutions of other states. Cultural Aspect At the Universitiies of Virginia, Tennessee and Missouri, he stated, the various faiths carry on religious education off campus and secure uni- versity credit for the courses they offer. Citing the "bold approach" of the University of Oregon, Iowa State Col- lege and Armos College, Dr. Blakeman also described the departments of religion these schools have set up. A Fifth Approach A fifth approach, he said, is com- plete exclusion of religious themes from the curriculum. Some univer- sities adopt this attitude, he asserted, because of "fear that some citizens may maintain that all presentations of religion must of necessity be open to the charge that it is 'secretarian'. "By the same token," he said, "pol- itical science would be excluded as a means of evading the consideration of political parties." Prof. Kennedy Will Lecture Dr. Clarence H. Kennedy, professor of zoology, will speak on "The Evolu- tion of the Society from the Family" at 4:30 p.m. and on "The Evolution of Human Transportation as Shown by the Evolution of the Automobile" at 8 p.m. today in the Rackham Amphitheatre. The lectures are under the joint sponsorship of the Graduate Stu- dent Council and Phi Sigma, honor- ary biological fraternity. A reception for Dr. Kennedy will follow his second lecture. Both ,talks are open to the public. U of Houston Opens Guatemalan Center In an initial endeavor to establish an English speaking center for the study of Latin American social con- ditions, the University of Houston is opening its first Summer Center at Guatemala June 3, and invites all college students to attend. The study center in Guatemala will feature courses in English on social, economic, and cultural condi- tions in Guatemala. Further information may be ob- tained by writing Doctor Joseph S. Werlin, director, at the University of Houston, Houston, Texas. Garg Will Appear in Ghostly Gray!!

Comments from the junior board indicated that that was not such a difficult feat. "The stories are in every re- spect witty and in good taste," the literary editor pointed out. "Some of them," he hastened to add, "even show flashes of mature un- derstanding of world problems. Some of the stories are funny. Some of the stories are of a more silent-humor variety. All of the stories are printed in clear, legible type." An intense demand for first edi- tions of this issue is expected by the business staff. Sales will be- gin at 4 a.m. tomorrow, and all copies not sold by 8 a.m. will be turned over to the General Lib- rary for use in a forthcoming ex- hibit, to be titled "Life in Old Mexico." Stephenson To Be Speaker at Campus Rally A 19 year-old war veteran, James Stephenson, the victim of an attempt- ed lynching in Columbia; Tenn. will he the principal speaker at an all campus rally,' co-sponsored by IRA and MYDA, which will be held at 7:30 p.m. tomorrow in the Union. The rally climaxes a drive held this week by the two organizations to inform the campus about the true facts of the Columbia, Tenn. riots. The trouble in that area started when Stephenson attacked a white repair- man who had insulted his mother. A raid on the Negro district followed, with police and citizens searching for Stephenson. Sixty-eight Negroes were arrested. During the time they were detained in prison, two of them were shot to death. They are now awaiting trial and are unable to obtain a counsel. Stephenson was released on bail and fled north with his mother. At the rally, ways will be deter- mined to raise funds to send to the Southern Conference of Human Wel- fare, which is attempting to obtain counsel for the defendants as well as prevent future riots. Alum niTo Speak To Mich igan Clubs In a four-day trip to the Corn Belt, T. Hawley Tapping, secretary of the Alumni Association and Prof. Waldo Abbott, of the Speeeh Department, will address the Tri-City University of Michigan Club and the Annual Conference of The Sixth District Michigan Clubs. U' Fresh Air Camp To Open Jutly I1 =Tibbn.1it Expanded Study 'T o Be Offered 224 Boys Summer outings for 224 boys from Southeastern Michigan will be com- bined with a workshop in human be- havior at the University of Michigan Fresh Air Camp when it opens July 1 for its 26th season. The camp is now under the direc- tion of the University's Institute for Human Adjustment. This year, ac- cording to Clark Tibbitts, director of the Institute, the camp program will include a greatly expanded study of each boy and the reasons for his be- havior or family maladjustment. Supervised Play But he hastened to add that this study won't interfere in any way with the four weeks of supervised play and instruction in handicraft which each of the boys will receive. The camp is located on Patterson Lake near Pinckney, 24 miles north- west of Ann Arbor, with the 300 wooded acres of the camp property and the 1,400 acre Edwin S. George Reserve, a University owned preserve for wild life, offering plenty of room for daytime and overnight hiking plus training in outdoor living. Study Each Boy The boys are referred to the camp from social agencies in the south- eastern part of the state, Mr. Tib- bitts explained. Fifty counselors will be on the camp staff to supervise the activities and to make careful obser- vation and study of each boy. From the reports of the counselors, infor- mation will be sent back to the var- ious social agencies which will help in ironing out behavior patterns or family maladjustments during the rest of the year. The counselors will be graduate students at the University taking the summer coures in education, sociology, and social work to be pro- vided for the staff members at the camp, Mr. Tibbitts explained. Most of the counselors will be school teach- ers or principals. The camp will be open from July 1 to August 23 with the boys being handled in two groups of 112 each. Vet Hospital Seeks Utilities Asserting that the veterans admin- istration should pay double the water and sewer rates if public utilities were provided for the veterans' hospital here, Mayor William E. Brown Jr. called for a "very careful study" of the request by a city council com- mittee. The tax-exempt Veterans Admin- istration requested water and sewer services, in addition to paving of streets leading to, and adjining the property, and fire protection for the hospital. The proposed site of the 500-bed hospital is off Cedar Bend Dr., with frontage on Broadway.

Sithe floor of the General Uibrary. A plate of Richard Le Galliene's, made in 1905, is in verse form. Con- tained on the plate is an apology written to his books for traveling and leaving thiem behind, and thank- ing IA ic for itawai ting 11,is return. Un ±der the N otted Persons division are boik plates of the late actress l~llen t'ery and the poet, Louis Un- term yer. Unternneyer's plate is a drawing u(f a young man earnestly clutebing the hools of a geome- trically-drawn Pegasus. Andrew Camrnegie's suggestion for his bookplate is divided into two parts; the lower shows Carnegie gazing through a telescope at the heavens; and the upper portion consists of Carnegie, a Scotch cap perched on his head, watering a tree. His water can has a dollar sign drawn on it, and the leaves of the tree fori models of libraries. td a nd use rThe Daily (Itst'dAds eeyour FLYING knowledge' ..:s.t t ..,:?..:'.a :"'. a -.'. , s..r ?..{..ta= i In your new Rain or Shine Coat - Versatile i word, for it keeps you dry on Rainy days smart-looking on Sunny ones.
