Angell and Dr. Hutchins discour-
aged such activity, feeling that
it took too much time away from
academic duties.
President Alexander G. Ruth-
ven, however, has said that "we
expect our faculty to accept their
responsibilities as citizens." If
they can find the time to carry
on both their academic and their
civic duties, Dr. Ruthven says,
both the University and the com-
munity are benefited.
The most important contribu-
tion that faculty members have
made to the city' government has
been their s p e c i a 1 technical
knowledge.
Burns Park, for example, was
laid out by the late Prof. George
P. Burns of the botany depart-
ment, As a member of the Park

Commission from 1903 to 1906
he inaugurated Ann Arbor's sys-
tem of parks and boulevards.
Many similar contributions have
been made by members of the
present faculty who have former-
ly been active in municipal gov-
ernment.
Worked on Planning Commission
Prof. Glenn Alt of the depart-
ment of civil engineering ai d
Prof. Ralph W. Hammet of the
architecture college, councilmen
during the late 1930's, worked on
the City Planning Commission
which revised Ann Arbor's build-
ing codes.
Prof. L. M. Gram of the civil
engineering department served as
a member of the Common Coun-
cil's zoning and building commit-
tees. from. 1923 to 1925.
Prof. William A. Paton and
Prof. Clare Griffin, both of the
business administration school,
served as members of the Com-
mon Council's finance and budget
committees, respectively. Prof.
John E. Tracy and Prof. John B.
Waite, both of the Law School,
were chairmen of the Ordinance
Committee of the council.
City Traffic Survey
In 1937, a city traffic survey
was conducted by a special coun-
cil committee under the chair-
manship of Prof. Roger L. Mor-
rison of the highway engineering
department.
Prof. Emeritus A. H. White of
the engineering college, council-
man from 1922 to 1926, was chair-

replaced by buses.
For 15 years prior to 1940 Prof.
Ferdinand N. Menefee of the me-
chanical engineering department
served on the Board of Public

struction and maintenance of the
city's streets, sidewalks and sew-
age system.
Several of the faculty members
formerly active in municipal gov-
ernment have initiated specia
projects not directly connected
with their academic work.
Voting Machines Urged
As a member of the Common
Council from 1934 to 1938, Wil-
fred B. Shaw, Director of Alumni
Relations, proposed that the city
install voting machines and park-
ing meters, a measure which has
since been adopted.
From 1938 to 1941 Prof. John
S. Worley of the engineering col-
lege was a member of the police
conunission, where he assisted in
the reorganization of the police
department, the establishment of
a police training program and the
inauguration of a system of ex
anminations and rating of police-
men,
These faculty members who
have devoted time and technical
knowledge to their community
have emphasized that they alone
are not responsible for the effec-
tive governmental administration
of Ann Arbor. As one of them put
it, "We're working with a lot of
good men."

NOT UNEXPECTED:
Move To Create Spanish King
Result of Pressure on Franco

By J. M. ROBERTS, JR.
AP Foreign Affairs Analyst
For five years General Franco
has been expected to call in Don
Juan, Pretender to the Spanish
throne, if ever it appeared the Fal-
angist regime might not be able to
continue going it alone.
Pressure on Franco has been
building up steadily since .the war,
not only among Spanish dissidents
and exiles, but also in the attitudes
of England, France, Russia and
the United States. Spain has been
subjected to a tightening economic
and political quarantine through
withdrawal of ambassadors by
United Nations members.
Compromise Expected
Now Franco appears to be mov-

Over- Stressed
Athletics for Fun, Not
Profit, Says Stevenson
MILWAUKEE, April 2 - () -
Terming "the present emphasis
on big time athletics in college
a most unwholesome state of af-
fairs, " Dr. William E. Stevenson,
president of Oberlin College, de-
clared tonight "Wecannot permit
even a few of our best young men
to be demoralized by such a sys-
tem."
Dr. Stevenson, in a speech de-
livered at the opening session of
the 33rd annualconvention of the
Mid-West Physical Education As-
sociation, said "School and college
athletics can only be justified as
sport and fun, not as big business"
The four day convention is be-
ing attended by 800 school and
municipal physical education and
recreation workers from West Vir-
ginia, Ohio, Indiana, Michigan,
Illinois and Wisconsin.
"We are certainly losing sight
of our objectives to train adults
and leaders when we permit school
and college athletic contests to de-
generate into Roman holidays,"
asserted the educator, who was a
member of the American 1,600
meter relay team which won the
Olympic title in Paris in 1924.
Dickinson To Discuss
Communist Manifesto
"Backgrounds of the Commu-
nisi Manifesto" will be the sub-
.et of a speech by Prof. Z. Clark
Dickinson of the economics de-
partment at an open meeting of
the Karl Marx Society to be held
at 7:30 p.m. today in Rm. 1025 An-
gell Hall.
The meeting was incorrectly an-
nounced for yesterday in yester-
day's Daily.
Lithuanian Meeting
The Lithuanian Club will meet
at 7:15 p.m. today in the League,
Anyone on campus of Lithuanian
origin or descent is eligible to at-
tend.

ing toward the expected compro-
mise with the Monarchists by an-
nouncing plans for installation of
a king when he is through. For
the first time he admits that his
regime is not permanent, but is
dependent upon his own life or
health.
Through the machinery of his
"bill on succession" Franco not'
only is in a position to control the
terms under which king might be
restored but also, more important-
ly, the terms under which the
monarchy would operate. The bill
prescribes that any successor must
abide by the "fundamental" laws.
These are the bill of rights, the
bill of labor rights, the law. con-
stituting the Cortes (parliament),
the law of national referendum,
and the "bill on succession" it-
self.
Bill on Succession
All of these are measures which
Franco designed for the purposes
of his own operations. If all went
well, from his standpoint, a new
government coming in at any time
would still be subject to the ma-
nipulations open to him under
these laws. As long as he and the
Falangists held the machinery, re-
gardless of titular positions, Spain
would still be operating under a
"Franco regime."
