-THE MICHIGAN DAIt 'PAGE SIX TH2UUSDAY, OCTOBEI~ Si, 1940 Plans Made For City-Wide FEPC Drive Antonevsky Chosen Committee President The campus-wide petition cam- paign for state FEPC legislation will be enlarged to cover all Ann Arbor, it was decided at a meeting of the FEPC Coordinating Committee last night which elected George Anto- nevsky of AVG, president. Plans were made to circulate both literature and petitions among the registered voters of the town imme- diately following state and congres- sional elections Nov. 5 despite a le- gal ruling which was previously con- sidered a definite stumbling block by a spokesman for the committee. Former Stumbling Block This ruling was that the circulator of a petition be a registered voter in the county in which he circulates the petition and that all signatures likewise be of registered voters. Following the distribution of liter- ature, door-to-door canvassers will cover the city seeking signatures to the petitions. Students Can Help Student members of the group rep- resented on the Coordinating Com- mittee (AVC, MYDA, IRA, SRA and th Lawyers Guil) cani itherefore b ature, it was pointed out, and legally registered voters for the circulation of petitions can be drawn from the ranks of the League of Women Vot- ers which has offered its support. In order to receive legislative con- sideration, the signatures of eight per cent of the persons who vote for the office of governor in the Nov. 5 elections must be secured by Dec. 1. Union Door Still ~Womiam-Proof' Women who try to sneak in the front door of the Union will have only temporary success. Plans are underway by the Union management to find a replacement for George, the 86 year old Union doorman, who died Tuesday. The new doorman, however, must be fitted to carry on the traditions begun back in 1920 when George J-. Johnson first came to work, accord- ing to Franklin C. Kuenzel, Union manager. The Union building, begun in 1916, was used as a barracks during the war years, he explained, pointing out that George had been with the Union since it first began operation as the men's meeting place in 1920. No Ann Arbor resident ever got more publicity than George,, he said, or more cigars from visiting alumni on football weekends. Dr. ELiehfield Is Given AMG Post in Germany Dr. Edward H. Litchfield, former lecturer in political science at the University, was appointed deputy di- rector of the civil administration di- vision of Allied Military Government in Germany. Vets, Coeds Get Together at Village Dances TOO FEW FAILURES: Carrothers Calls Automatic Promotion of Students Unfair Automatic promotion of pupils was termed basically unfair to students yesterday by George E. Carrothers, director of the Bureau of Cooperation with Educational Institutions. The current "fad for promotions and passing grades" regardless of pupil achievement prevents both pub- lcan pivatel cools fromnill-~ Carrothers asserted,' The "promotion fad" results, Car- octhen said, from the desire of schiool wersonnel to make a good showing mnd from parent pressure upon school >oard officials and teachers to pro- mnote their children, whether or not they deserve it., The situation in an increasing number of schools reflects, according to Carrothers, the idea either that all pupils are born with sufficient in- tellectual ability to do acceptable school work without any failures, or that the work offered ought to be watered down to a level which makes it possible for each child to be pro- mroted each year, -'"'he pupil gets an entirely errone- ous idea as to his own educational development, h e is tricked into think- he is prepared for future undertak- ings of which he is really incapable," Carrothers declared, "and he is not nrcour aged to make the rbost of his genuine intellectual ability." First spanish Lecture To Be Delivered Today The first in a series of seven Span- ish lectures presented under the spon- sorship of "La Sociedad Hispanica"' will be given by Prof. Jose R.
