V ARIED OPINIONS:
Hindu Students Comment On
a .1ndi's fites' Pe iltntl Fast
By KEN LOWE
Hindu students on campus ex-
pressed varying degrees of p
prehension over the consequences
of IvIohandas K. Gnndhis latest
fast, according to interviews yes-
,erday.
"Personally, I don't like it at ,
this juncture," said Rohit Desai,
"The fast will create worry on the
part of both the leaders and the
people. If trouble breaks out, it
will break out with double vio-
lence."
Leela Desai, president of the
campus Hindustan Association,
also expressed concern over Gand-
hi's fast for communal peace, now
in. its fourth day. "The Hindus
would hold the Moslems respon-
sible and would probably seek re-
venge," she said.
Ranganathan Shankar, on the
other hand, said that he aid not
think 1lt the fast will have seri-
ti., uli. T u ncj~ffl('e( "1 t a lot of
good may come of it," he added.
A.(ked why G(andhi exerts suh1
gt l: Iinfluence i"in India, Leela:.
Icsai replied, "Because he arouseC(I
the desire for independence and
ichieved it in 27 years. He has in-
'luenced every phase of Indian
life and his followers imitate him,
gven in their dress. It is said that
Nehru is the head of the country,,
while Gandhi is its soul."
Sha nkar explained Gandhi's
great influence in terms of the
Hindu leader's philosophy. "Gand-
hi has been influenced by Tols-
toy," he said. "But, while Tolstoy
couldn't forget that he was an
aristocrat, Gandhi has merged
himself with the common man.
Where Tolstoy failed, Gandhi suc-
ceeded to a much greater extent."

Construction
To Begin on
Observatory
Construction will be begun soon
on a new $260,000 astronomy ob-
servatory in University - owned
8tinehfield Woods, near Ann Ar-
bor, President Alexander G. Ruth-
von announced yesterday.
Equipped with a 24-inch reflect-
ing telescope of the recently-per-
fected Schmidt-type, the two-
story observatory will also include
a shop and utility rooms, offices,
a photographic darkroom, and a
library. It will be completed within
the year, President Ruthven said.
Primarily designed to expand
the teaching facilities of the as-
tronomy department, the observ-
atory will also be. used to carry
on a major program of research on
galaxies and the Milky Way, as
well as observing the solar system,
comets, and asteroids, he said.
The new-type telescope, which
utilizes a correcting lens to photo-
graph a larger portion of the
image as reflected from the 24-
inch mirror, will enable astron-
omers to photograph a field six
degrees in diameter, roughly
twelve times the diameter of the
moon.
When completed, the new proj-
ect will be the fourth observatory
to be put into operation by the
University.
With the solar research being
done at the McMath-Hulbert Ob-
servatory at Lake Angelus, the
University observatory, and the
Lamont-Hussey Observatory in
South Africa, the University will
be equipped to work on almost
any type of astronomical problem

the astronomy department, ex-

enger before it was discovered that

Broad Discussions
Those students left unplagued
by writers cramp after finals will
be given a"double opportunity to
brush up on penmanship and for-
eign languages, with the organi-
zation of the foreign students cor-
respondence exchange on campus.
Organized under the direction
of the campus National Student
Association, the exchange will
give students "a chance to dis-
cuss pending world problems with
people actually in international
crises," according to Dick Cort-
right, exchange director.
Foreign students have request-
ed "pen-pals" interested in trav-
el, reading, music, politics, phil-
osophy, medicine, current affairs
and gene al subjects.
. Interested students should write

ing a summary of topics for cor-
respondence, location and type of
person preferred for correspond-
ence.
Veterans . .
(Continued from Page 1)
Campbell closed his statement
with the comment that he liked
the "more mature women."
A lesser degree of criticism was
expressed by Richard Ahlbeck,
whowill receive his degree from
the engine school.
After two years away, Ahlbeck
found that the present system
suffers in comparison to the pre-
war standards because the courses
are "not as well integrated and
the classes too crowded."
Being an engaged man, Ahl-
beck felt that he could make no
comment on the maturity of cam-
pus coeds.
A returned woman veteran, Vir-
ginia Kobach, lit school senior,
said that she found little diffi-
culty in resuming where she had
left off five years ago.
Three years in the service, she
explained, had proven to her
that in all fields it is necessary to
have a degree to get a good job.
Back on campus for the first
semester, she continued, her im-
pression was that the attitude of
the returned veterans was more
mature, while the women still
seemed immature.
