THURSDAY, MAY 21, 1953 PAGE SIX ' THE MICHIGAN DAILY I I EUROPEAN OBSERVER: SwissLawyer Becoming Americanized * * * * By JANE HOWARD McCarthy and Marilyn Monroe, in the opinion of a Swiss observ- er, constitute America's "two di- seases." Eugen Curti's complaints about the United States end there. On the whole the genial post-doctorate law student has .little but praise for America in general and Ann Arbor in particular. CURTI graduated from the Uni- versity of Zurich in 1951 with a doctorate in law, and unpacked his bags at the Lawyers' Club last fall after receiving a W. W. Cook law scholarship via the Institute of International Education. His specialty, anti-trust law, might surprise Europeans, since there is no current need for it in Switzerland, but Curti fore- sees an eventual necessity for anti-trust -legislation resulting from a gradual commercial uni- fication of Europe. European regional delegate to International Students' Associa- tion's new house of representatives, Curti was asked his impressions of the campus anti-apathy move- ment. "You'll find apathy a typi- cal aspect of any good school," he said. "People are too busy to do everything." On women he said "You get all Phi Eta Sigma To Hear Slosson Prof. Preston W. Slosson of the history department will speak on "How the Other Half Lives; the Professor and the Student" at the Phi Eta Sigma, freshman honorary society for men, initiation banquet at 6:30 p.111. today in the Union. Ninety-three freshmen with av- erages of 3.5 or above for two se- mnesters will be elected to the so- ciety this evening. .--Daily-Don Campbell EUGEN CURTI -McCarthy, Monroe, and mimeograph- types no matter where you go. Here they think more maybe of beauty, which gives a nice atmos- phere, while at home they care more about the person." * * * WHILE CURTI termed Switzer- land's neutrality basically a for- mality, he claimed "We're very proud of our 400-year non-aggres- sion record." Answering to "Eugene," "Gene," or "Oygen," the native pronunciation, Curti is famed for his mimeographed letters, which he need only underline to express his wishes. "I got the idea," he smiled, "from those 'Dear: Mom, Gang, Sweetie, Folks' postcards." Curti feels he's acquired a val- uable general contact with Amer- ican life here which is just as im- portant as his widened legal out- look. "Now," he concluded, "I just feel normal and perfectly happy, but in five weeks I'll know how Americanized I've become. hook Group Schedules 4u' Meeting Librarians, English professors, students, rare book collectors and dealers will hold the annual meet- ing of the Bibliographical Society of America at 10 a.m. Saturday in Clements Library.

Whether you're interested in Hedera helix, better known as English ivy, or in orchids, or in any plant in between, you can probably find it at theUniversity Botanical Garden. * * * THE GARDEN, located near Packard Rd. and Stadium Blvd., serves as a classroom for Botany 2 students and as a research cen- ter for botanists. When the garden was estab- lished in 1915 one laboratory and a greenlhouse were built. Last year, to add to the garden, a new lab was completed in which Botany 2 students now carry on their experiments in practical gardening and applied botany. Students have garden plots outside the greenhouse in the 50 acre area of the BotanicalGar- den as well as room in the green- house to grow their own plants. Prof. Harley H. Bartlett of the botany department serves as di- rector of the gardens and Prof. Frieda C. Blanchard is his assist- ant.

Paintings, displayed for the fifth year by invitation of Drama season officials, were exhibited earlier this year by the Associa- tion. The pictures are all creations of members of the local art group. WILLIAM LEWIS, technical il- lustrator at the Willow Run Re- search Center and member of the Art Association "hung" the 30 picture show, a job which took five hours. He maintains that the theater lobby is not too satisfactory as an art gallery because of the plaster walls. All the paintings had to be hung from the ceiling molding as a result, he said. Most of the five hours was spent in standing back and staring at the paintings on the walls and then rearranging them, with the advice of Art Association members, Lewis said. Mrs. H. S. Bull, president of the art group, stated that the Art As- sociation's purpose for the display is "both to create and satisfy art interest."
