CAN'T THROW STONES:
Professors Dislike 'Fish Bowl' Offices

By GAYLE GREENE
Many a professor with offices in
the new Haven Hall has found life
in a "golf fish bowl" somewhat
traumatic.
Besides complaining, some mem-
bers of the teaching staff have cov-
ered the revealing clear glass panes
intheir office doors with anything
from dime store shower curtains
and white gift wrappings to brown
butcher paper and Medieval musi-
cal scores.
A QUICK survey of the seven
floors of offices in the new build-
ing shows that more than 50 per
cent of the occupnts have tried
to escape the public, although only
two were found who had done
anything to deaden the sound
problems caused by moveable par-
titions acting as walls.
No department has solved its
difficulties with so much imag-
ination as the English depart-
ment.
Prof. Marvin Felheim of the
English department conducted an
explanatory tour.
"Shower curtain, 29 cents a foot
at the dime store in rose, yellow,
blue and aqua,"' the professor said,
pointing to a daintily flowered
rose-colored example as he walk-
ed down the hall.
Neithei; Prof. Felheim nor his
office mate, Prof. Frederick Pet-
erson, plan to cover their own win-
dow, however. "I consider my per-
sonality so opaque that merely be-
ing able to see through the glass
will lead students nowhere," Pet-
erson explained.
"We don't want to be seen
through a glass darkly," he added.
Job opportunities
Open to Students
With the coming of spring part
time job opportunities are at an all
time high in Ann Arbor.
There is a particular demand
for students to take outdoor jobs
working in yards throughout the
city. Full time construction jobs
for the summer and other year
round part time jobs are also avail-
able.
Interested students may apply at
the University Personnel Office,
Rm. 3012, Administration Bldg.

signed UHF Channel 26 for an

plying for this channel.
WPAG-TV will begin its opera-
tion with no studios or studio
equipment. Local programming
will be entirely of film and still
pictures. The Dumont TV net-
work will feed live shows from its
New York studios.
The station expects to expand
its facilities to include live pro-
gramming, according to program
director Roger Shepard, but has
no immediate plans for construc-
tion of studios.
Shepard said that WPAG-TV
