THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 3, 1946 1"lpAGE S1VIN TH3E MICHIG AN DAILY x . VILLAGE SALE PROPOSED: Disposal of Willow Run Announced Prematurely Scholarship Trophy Goes Tio Winchell Earlier announcements indicat- ing that Willow Run housing proj- ect would be sold as a unit, were described Tuesday as "premature" by Public Housing Administration officials.. At a hearing, requested by Washtenaw County officials, Hugo Schwartz, Detroit PHA field rep- resentative, stated however, that "there are people in the agency who feel the land should be sold in its entirety as a technique of sale." He SAID his aim was to investi- gate local opinion and not to say "this is the policy which will be followed." Washtenaw county agencies and governmental units present- ed various viewpoints to the PHA representatives in a 10- page "bill of particulars" read by County Prosecutor Douglas K. Reading. An official county statement said newspaper announcement of the proposed sale of Willow Run as a unit "was received by the citi- zens and officialsof this county with much surprise and concern." SUCH A PLAN would violate a previous understanding that the property would be returned even- tually to the local government or private ownership, according to county officials. They maintained that "order- ly disposition and re-develope- ment of Willow Run requires gradual elimination of the war- time emergency housing units and the sale of the property as it becomes vacated." The official county statement was that "there be no misunder- standing of our position on this. We do not say this entire housing area should be removed now or that any of it should be taken down tomorrow." * * * "WE RECOGNIZE that for the benefit of the citizens of the country at large the moving of this population must be gradual, but we also say that the policy for accomplishing this should be formulated and announced as soon as possible." Schwartz stated that the gov- ernment had to be guided by soundebusiness practice, but county officials insisted that the question of monetary return to the government should be a secondary aim. PHA can keep the 2,000 acre project under government controll until January 1, 1951, according to Schwartz.1 Garnering the highest combined scholastic average among men's residence halls for the past two semesters, Winchell House was awarded Phi Eta Sigma's new scholarship trophy. It marked the first time the tro- phy has been presented, according to Don Nelson, '52, president of Phi Eta Sigma, national freshman honor fraternity for men. * * * WINCHELL HOUSE led the men's residence halls with a com- bined grade point average of 2.65, closely followed by Adams House with 2.64. Both dormitories are in the West Quadrangle. "As part of a program to bet- ter freshman scholarship, Phi Eta Sigma works through men's residence halls because of the large number of first year stu- dents living there," Nelson said. - He outlined the trophy's dual purpose of "rewarding the winning residence hall last year for its scholastic record, and encourag- ing good scholarship in all resi- dence halls during the present year." AN IMPOSING two and one- half foot cup topped by the figure of a man holding high a laural wreath, the trophy was presented to Winchell House by Nelson and Dean of Students Erich A. Walter.

At that time Dr. Ruthven blast- ed the trends which "place any- one who questions the status quo under suspicion." * * * SPECIFICALLY, he leveled his sights on pressure groups and spe- cial interests who he said had "created an atmosphere of fear which interferes with the work of schools" and called for educa- tional institutions and the press to combine to battle the three ene- mies of freedom - ignorance, sel- fishness and superstition. Noted for his hard-hitting, frank addresses at the Press Club meetings, President Ruthven at- tacked the "many half-baked criticism of our newspapers" in his 1947 speech. Asking the newspapermen to in- terpret educational institutions for Ithe public, he pointed out that, "At present no paper is seriously endeavoring to explain the activi- Ai The afternoon session will be de- voted to a discussion of the impli- cations of atomic energy.

In addition, he suggested that young people from different coun- tries who are interested in news- paper work be brought from abroad to promote better foreign rela- tions. In 1946 President Ruthven briefly surveyed the tense in- ternational situation and charg- ed that "while we believe in de- mocracy, there seems to be little faith in the impact of democracy on communism." "Is this lack of faith not due in part at least to our knowledge that American democracy in prac- tice hardly lives up to its ideals?" he asked. Because of this situation, he as- serted that it was time to give more lip service to the opinion that education is the most im- portant of human activities. *$4l It's simpler--more economical to shop at Lyon & Healy where "Everything Known in Sheet Music" is under one roof.
