COLLEGE ROUNDUP:
Dissent on Communists
Seen at Washington'U'

By DAVIS CRIPPEN
Dissension in the anti-Commun-
ist ranks at the University of
Washington apparently showed it-
self last week when a history pro-
fessor at the institution declared
Communists have a right to teach
forcible overthrow of the govern-
ment.
Prof. Max Savelle speaking on
the same campus from which
teacher Herbert Phillips had been
fired for his Communist Party
membership, told a lecture audi-
ence of students that "Overthrow
of the government by force is an
integral part of American life."
* * *
SAVELLE DIDN'T think the
Communist teachers would get far
trying to sell their doctrines any-
way. "People in this country are
subjected to conservatism from the
first grade in school," he said.
A. A couple of visitors were also
making news at a couple of
schools in the country.

Valentine Davies, '27, distin-
guished screen writer and Aca-
demy Award winner for the ori-
ginal screenplay of "The Miracle
on 34th Street," will deliver a
lecture entitled "Creative Writing
I for the Screen" at 4:15 p.m., Wed-
nesday, in Rackham Amphithe-
atre.
The lecture is to be sponsored
by the Art Cinema League in ac-
cordance with their new policy of
bringing to Ann Arbor annually
persons engaged in the creative
end of cinematic activities.
DAVIES WAS in Ann Arbor last
May to attend the world's first
author's premiere held here in
honor of University vice-presi-
dent emeritus Shirley Smith. The
film was "it Happens Every
Spring," based on a short story
by Smith and adapted for the
screen by Davies, who subsequent-
ly wrote the story in novel form.
Davies began his theatrical
career at the University. As an
undergraduate he participated
in amateur productions and
wrote the script for the Union
Opera "Tambourine." He also
wrote a Daily column entitled
"Toasted Rolls."
Some of the recent pictures
which he has written solely or in
collaboration were "Three Little
Girls in Blue," "You Were Meant
For Me" and "Chicken Every
Sunday." Most recently he has
completed ."On The Riviera," a
new Danny Kaye comedy which
will be produced in September.
Davies is president of the
Screen Writers Guild and is also
active in the writer's branch of
the Motion Picture Academy of
Arts and Sciences.

President Harry Truman spent
Mother's Day at the University of
Wisconsin, while Joy Boy, a horse,
helped some of the fraternity men
at the Illinois Institute of Tech-
nology in Chicago put on a show-
and then later did a little acting
up of his own.
The Truman visit to Madison
must have really been something-
at least it knocked the student
newspaper's reporter, who was cov-
ering it, for something of a loop.

DESCRIBING THE first fam-
ily's appearance as they left last
Sunday, reporter John Hunter
burbled, "Grey-haired Bess Tru-
man epitomized the reason for
celebrating Mother's Day."
"The sight of Margaret," Hun-
ter effused, "outfitted in a red
suit, would have sent the cur-
rent flock of Badger Beauties to
the nearest beauty parlor."
The trouble at Illinois Tech all
started after Joy Boy, ice wagon
horse turned thespian, had starred
in a skit as part of fraternity pa-
geant at the school.
* ~* *
THE HORSE, suddenlyturning
tempermental and declined to go
down the stairs from the auditor-
ium. They were too steep for'one
of his intense nervous temperment,
he indicated.
The Greeks concerned' joined
with administration problems to
solve - or rather remove- the
weighty problem. Finally after four
hours and 20 minutes the solution
came when Joy Boy was turned
around, and backed ingloriously
down the stairs.
Total damage: One hand rail on
the stairs.
Four Firsts'
Scored by 1950
UnionOpera
Score another "first" for the
1950 Union Opera "Lace It Up."
Latest innovation for the sec-
ond post-war production of the
all-male opera is waxing .of the
principle songs by a national rec-
ord company.
* * *
OTHER FIRSTS for the opera
this year were a full-fledged road
tour of Detroit, Toledo and Buf-
falo; publishing of the script and
songs in folio form by a New
York publisher; and copyright of
seven of the songs.
Opera cast members and any
personnel interested in order-
ing the five 12-inch shellack
records can call either Jim Eb-
ersole at 23256 or Cliff Rogers
at 8746, anytime today.
Only 100 sets are available and
will be sold at no profit on a first
come first served basis, Rogers
said.
The records are being pressed
in Indianapolis from a tape re-
cording made by WUOM of one
of the performances.

186 Pints of
Blood Given
HyJanitor
EAST LANSING-(W)-An East
Lansing janitor, who has given
more than 23 gallons of blood,
yesterday scoffed at the claims
of various "champion" blood
donors.
Foster Clark, a husky 44-year
old janitor and newstand propri-
tor in the college city, says he has
Red Cross and blood bank records
to prove his donation of 186 pints
of blood since 1930.
* * *
"THERE ARE probably others
who have given as much ,blood as
I have," Clark said. "But it burn-
ed me up to have some guy in
Ohio claiming his 70 pints was
the best in the world."
Clark said he planned to keep
on giving blood until he has
reached 250 pints.
"Then I'll stop," he said. "After
all, I'm not getting any younger."
CLARK'S FORMULA for re-
storing his blood and building up
his strength was given to him by
an old doctor in West Virginia,
he related.
"I eat lots of yellow cheese
made of goat's milk," he said. "It's
strong stuff but it seems to build
up my strength too."

'Mr. Forma Wins Tux
Just in Tine for Weddig
By PETE THORPE "My sister is being married soo
Why rent it when you can win and winning this now couldn

it?
Surprised, excited and certain-.
ly pleased with his good fortune.
Robert Turchan, '51A, pointed out
that the summer tux he won in
the 1950 "Mr. Formal of Michi-
gan" contest came through "just
in time" to save a budget-break-
ing rental fee.
Opera, raina
To lieGiven
Opera and comedy-drama of
the 16th-century will take over
the main concourse of Alumni
Memorial Hall at 8:30 p.m. today.
In a program sponsored jointly
by the Collegium Musicum, the
department of speech and the
Mluseum of Fine Arts, student
groups will trace the early devel-
opment of the opera form.
The first work of the evening
will be the pre-opera "L'Amfipar-
nasso" by Vecchi which was com-
posed by combining a series of
madrigals.
Scenes from Goldoni's "Servant
of Two Masters" will follow as an
example of pre-opera pantomine.
The final work of the evening
will consist of excerpts from
Montverdi's "L'Orfeo."

SPONSORED BY A national
clothing concern, the contest to
choose the Michigan man who
"best typifies informal comfort
in formal wear" was open to any
residence group which would en-
ter 25 'men in the contest.
Men from two fraternities
and 11 dormitories tried on the
formal outfits in local stores
and each group winner was then
photographed. Pictures of the
finalists were judged and the
winner selected.
Jim Pittsley, '52E, chairman of
the contest, said that the win-
ning picture will be submitted in
competition with approximately
30 other U.S. colleges in order to
pick a national "Mr. Formal."
* * *
TURCHAN'S fortunate Ander-
son House friends, winners of
beer mugs for competing with
him in the contest, were a little
more skeptical about their good
luck. As Jim Burdeaux, '52E put
it, "We mugs can't mug mugs
without beer!"
Asked about campus coeds,
Turchan replied, "From an archi-
tectural viewpoint, they aren't
bad." However, even "Mr. Formal"
feels the pinch of the University
ratio-"All I need now is a date,"

IT WORKS LIKE THIS-Visitors to the military "open house" at North Hall yesterday were able
to see military equipment ranging from powdered eggs to scientific sonar detectors used to spot
submarines in naval warfare. Inspecting this .30 caliber water-cooled Browning machine gun are

explains how the machine gun works. The open h use was part of Ann Arbor's celebration of the
first annual Armed Forces Day. Other events included radio speeches, movies, navy planes flying
over the city and dances at local veterans' clubs.
