Former Olivet Coeds Tell of
Strife's Effect on Students
GOVERNOR'S WIFE HERE:
Recalls First Meeting with 'Soapy'
*.?
*
By JIM BROWN
All was not peace and quiet for
students at strife-ridden little
Olivet College last semester.
Terming the school "one huge
political camp" Bobbie Setlow, '50,
and Polly Kay, '51, both say they
are glad that they transferred to
the University this semester. Both
added, however, that "we wouldn't
Brumm Says
U.S. PublicIs
Ill-Informed
The American public is not re-
ceiving the complete news picture
through the columns of today's
newspapers, Prof. Emeritus John
L. Brumm told a journalism lec-
ture audience yesterday.
Newspaper editors too often
print only what they feel the pub-
lic should know and thus restrict
the freedom of the press by their
own actions, Prof. Brumm said.
The public is frequently denied
the opportunity to consider cer-
tain ideas because they are alien
to the thinking of many news-
paper editors, he continued.
This self-imposed restriction of
the freedom of the press, accord-
ing to Prof. Brumm, is just as
serious as government censorship.
Paradoxically, the framer's of
the Constitution actually limited
the freedom of the press in their
efforts to secur that end, he point-
ed out, because the founding fath-
ers expected that newspapers
have missed the experience for
anything."
EMPHASIZING that it was al-
most impossible to study at all,
both girls said that they got very
little out of the semester academ-
ically. "We used to sit up until all
hours every night arguing the is-
sue instead of studying," said Miss
Setlow.
"Even our classes were dis-
rupted since some professors
conducted broad discussions on
the issue," she added.
Pointing out that the students
were split as well as the faculty-
some siding with the 15 ousted
faculty members and others sup-
porting the adninistration-the
two girls said that the situation
was pretty tense at times. "The
arguments often became rather
bitter and each group almost
shunned eachother," declared
Miss Kay.
BOTH GIRLS felt that the un-
certainty of the situation was the
most nerve-wracking part of the
semester. "We never knew whether
the school would close immedi-
ately or if our credits would be ac-
cepted at other schools," said(Miss
Kay.!
When asked what they thought
the fate of the school would be the
two girls again expressed differ-
ing opinions. Asserting that Olivet
has lost the ideals which it upheld
when she entered two years ago,
Miss Setlaw said, "I think it will
fold or deteriorate in June."
Miss Kay, however, felt that the
school would survive the current
strife. "I have too much faith in

"I was engaged to a fellow from
St. Louis-but my sorority sisters
wouldn't let me sit home.''
"So they got me a blind date,
and he turned out to be Soapy."
MRS. G. MENNEN Williams was
telling me how she met her hus-
band in 1935, when both were
students at the University.
The Governor's wife, in this
part of the state for a few days,
was guest of honor at a facultyf
wives' tea at the Ruthven home
yesterday. As they greeted her,
club members who knew her
"back when" helped piece out
her story.
She was sophomore Nancy Quirk
then. Determined to be true to
her fiance, she had decided to
spend the weekend ofs abig spring
dance at home In "Ypsilanti.
BUT HER SOROSIS sisters
wouldn't hear of it, and St. Louis
was far away. So they finally
talked Nancy into taking a blind
date.
le was a law junior named G.
Mennen Williams-"Soapy" to
his college friends.
Evidently he plead his romantic
case well on that first date, for
two years and one broken engage-
ment later, tall, vivacious Nancy
Quirk became Mrs. G. Mennen
Williams.

Method Cited
Getting a 'job as a teacher is
the same as getting any other
kind of job, Dr. T. Luther Pur-
dom, director of the Bureau of
Appointments and Occupational
Information, said said last night.
Speaking on "Securing a Teach-
ing Position" in the fifth of a
series of weekly public lectures
sponsored by the education school,
Purdom said the thing to do is
be smart, be decent and do some-
thing for yourself."
ITHE BUREAU of Appointments
does not tell people whom to hire
or what position to accept, Pur-
dom pointed out. Its task is pure-
ly one of giving information, he
said.
And he explained that treating
a prospective employer with re-
spect is important no matter how
well qualified you are. The most
important thing is to show initia-
tive, Purdom said.
