The chapter's application for
University recognition was passed
yesterday by the Student Aff airs
Committee. This is the first timne
the NAACP has had a chapter on
this campus.
"One of the main reasons we
decided to form a local chapter
was to provide a centralizing ele-
ment for student interest in prob-
lems of discriminations and to
handle racial problems," Edward
Dawley '52L, president of the new
chapter said.
"The NAACP has developed
workable methods of combating
racial problems, and this chaptei-
will give students a chance to par-
ticipate in campus problems and
to gain practice for problems in
later life.",
Walter Clements, '52L, t h e
group's temporary secretary, said
the heads of all major campus or-
ganizations have received invita-
tions to join the NAACP member-
ship committee.
The NAACP is the largest na-
tional civil rights organization. It
has had such famous members as
Franklin Delano Roosevelt, Ralph
Bunch, Harold Ickes and Walter
Reuther. White will be honored
at a luncheon in the League prior
to Friday's meeting.

The camp is under the direction of Prof. William C. Morse

majority of the counselors are University graduate students in the
education school and the sociology and psychology departments.

Await Turnout
Today is Tag Day.
bStudent vrolunters wil an
area to collect an expected $4,000
from students and additional funds
from faculty and other Ann Arbor
residents for the University's Freshi
Air Camp for underprivileged chil-
dren.
MONEY collected will be used to
defray about one-third of the
camp's operational costs. Chsarity
funds are allocated to paying for
food, equipment and some staff
salaries.
Campus groups promotig Tag

lature, the Union, the League,
the Inter-Fraternity Council,
Panhellenic, the Association of
Indepen Ient Men, Assembly and
Alpha Phi Omega, service fra-
ternity. They hope to help boost
student contributions up to the
$4,000 quota.
The campus has not met its
quota since 1948. In 1949, student
gifts ran $1,500 short of the $5,000
mark which was lowered the fol-
lowing year. Last year, the goal
was missed by a small margin but
tow contributions from other Mich-
igan citizens chopped the budget
considerably.

BULK OF the camp's- financial
needs is met by t11e University
Summer Session and the Institute
for Human Adjustment. Other
large sums are donated by indi-
vidual faculty members and Ann
Arbor and Detroit citizens.
Students have traditionally
outshone all other groups in
supplying money for the rela-
tively smnall budget requirement
fed by donations. No alumni
group9s have contributed since
Gifts from students and faculty
members are used for food, plant
maintenance, camping equipment,
craft materials and personnel for
medical service and cooking. Coun-
srs are provmie foranyethe Sum
mer Session while costs for gen-
eral administration and research

Activities include traditional
camp pastimes such as swim-
ming, games, overnight hikes,
crafts, movies and boating. A
work 'program is also provided
for campers.
Social agencies relate confiden-
tial data to the camp concerning
their charges. In turn, camp spe-
cialists return a study of the boy
to the agency including a daily log
of his behavior and an analysis of
his cabin group. . .
The camp, entering its 31st year
of operation, June 18, is believed
to be the first of its kind in the
country. Its main purpose is to
help what jagencies call "in-be-
tweens"--boys whose difficulties
may later lead to delinquencies if
not alleviated before maturity,
functiondsas a workshop inhuma
behavior for students interested
In the welfare and adjustment of
children.

P REVIEW...
'As the season for America's annual music festivals draws
near, and the programs and performing artists are announced,
many interested and concerned persons throughout the country
feel compelled, in 1951 as in former years, to raise their voices in
protest. The protest is, of course, not against the American
music festival as an institution, but rather against its failure to be
what it prhtends to be; it is a protest largely earnest, valid and
therefore justified.
