In Regents Fight
Special to The Daily
DETROIT-Prospects of floor
fights for the two Regents nomi-
nations at today's GOP spring
convention appeared dim last nighi
as Michigan Republicans went in-
to evening caucuses.
Incumbents Charles S. Kennedy,
of Detroit, and Otto E. Eckert, of
Lansing, are expected to be nom-
inated by acclamation as support
was rapidly crumbling for other
would-be Regents,
EARLIER, SOME Party wheels
had advanced the names of Nash-
Kelvinator president George Ma-
son, of Detroit, and Harry Gault,
Flint attorney, in opposition to the
two incumbents.
However, at last reports, Ma-
son had withdrawn his name
from consideration. Gault is al-
so not expected to put his name
on the floor as party harmony
was being sought in the smoke-
filled rooms last night.
A split in the large Wayne
County delegation over the threat-
ened bolt of the powerful 17th
Congressional District organiza-
tion has been in the offing since
reports of opposition to the pres-
ent Regents were first circulated.
HOWEVER, THE 17th, which
generally rules the roost with the
Kent County "home front" group
in state GOP conventions, was
making efforts to heal the rift last
night.
If nominated today. Kennedy
and Eckert will face Democrts
Thomas N. Robinson, of Ben-
ton Harbor, and Hazen L. Hatch,
of Marshall, in the April 6 elec-
tions. Spring elections have been
traditionally lopsided in favor of
the GOP.
The convention will also name
two candidates for the State Board
of Agriculture, Michigan State's
ruling board, one member of the
State Board of Education, the sup-
erintendent of public instruction,
the highway commissioner, two
justices of the State Supreme
Court and the GOP State Central
Committee's chairman and vice-
chairman.
Chief Justice John R. Deth-
mers andi former Gov. Harry F.
Kelly are given the edge for the
"non-partisan" judgeships while
incumbent highway commissioner
Charles M. Ziegler will be named
by acclamation.
Wide-open fights are in the off-
ing for the post which will be va-
cated by Superintendent of Public
Instruction Lee Thurston in June,
the Agriculture Board and the
state chairmanship.
Short talks in Cass Auditorium,
scene of the convention, will be
delivered this morning by Michi-
gan Senators Homer Ferguson and
Charles E. Potter.

Crisler Reports
Large Drop in U
Athletic Income
Aigler Sees Little Change in Stand
On Televising of Football Games
By ERIC VETTER
Income from athletics tumbled nearly 50 per cent during the
1951-52 fiscal year University Athletic Director Herbert O. "Fritz"
Crisler reported yesterday.
In a 15 page report to the Board of Regents, Prof. Crisler ex-
pressed "serious concern" over the nosedive which constitutes a 64
per cent drop in athletic income since the 1949-50 accounting year.
CHIEFLY RESPONSIBLE for the decline was a drop of $112,462
in football revenue. Net income for the year ending June 30, 1952
was $229,024 as compared to $446,-
i
said.
* * *
DEAN W. C. OLSON of the
School of Education commented
that the Regents' action was tak-
en on recommendation of the fac-
ulty. Part of the benefit of the
change is expected to come in help-
ing students desiring to transfer
to the University and to simplify
some aspects of administration and
the evaluation of instruction in
he school.
Olson pointed out that a 2.0
y average has been the require-
ment for graduation from the
school for many years. "Selec-
tivity in the School of Education
has always been high and will
continue to be so, in spite of the
change," he said.
Certification for teaching in the
State of Michigan is made by the
state board of education upon
recommendation of the School of
Education.
In citing the advantages of the
change, Olson said he thought the
change might bring more people
into the education field.
The Regents also took action
to approve an extension of the
Regents - Alumni Scholarship
program to cover students in
those programs which normally
take more than four years to
complete.
Under the new plan, the schol-
arships may now. be extended to
cover an additional semester in
engineering, twi additional semes-
ters in architecture, four addition-
al registrations in nursing and
one additional summer session in
medical technology.

In Grants
Medical fellowships and research
work accounted for more than
$90,000 of the total of $112,842 in
gifts and grants the University
Board of Regents accepted yester-
day.
Heading the list of gifts was
$30,000 from Dr. Lawrence N. Up-
john, of Kalamazoo, to establish
the Henry U. Upjohn Memorial
Pellowship. Income from the fund
will be used toward fellowships on
research in medical science or
closely allied fields.

LAWRENCE J. Montgomery, of
Battle Creek, gave $25,000 to assist
deserving medical students in their
education.
The Regents also accepted
$10,000 from the Josephine and
Ernest Kanzler Fund, of De-
troit, to establish the Dr. Carl
E. Badgley Fund for scientific
advancement in the field of sur-
gery.
A second $10,000 grant, from
the Michigan Consolidated Gas
Company, Detroit, will be used for
the purchase and installation of
a complete fluoroscope X-ray unit
and other equipment for the De-
partment of Thoracic Surgery in

227 for the 1954-51 year and $635,-
958 for 1949-50. Prof. Crisler sub-
mitted the report to the Board in
Control of Intercollegiate Ath-
letics.
Prof. Ralph W. Aigler, of the
Law School and Michigan's Big
Ten faculty representative, said
the decline does not mean a
change in the University's stand
on televising of football games.
"Michigan has never advocated
unlimited televising and there is
no indication on the part of the
Michigan Athletic Board to go its
own way. Rather, this is an NCAA
(National Collegiate Athletic As-
sociation) and regional policy and
Michigan shall go along with their
ruling," Prof. Aigler continued.
* * *
DISCUSSION on television arose
when the report showed it had
provided- a substantial source of
income during the year. The re-
port contained the following
statement:
"This matter (income from
television) is pointed out to un-
derscore the great potentiality
of television as a revenue pro-
ducer for schools whose teams
engage public interest suffi-
ciently to attract sponsorship
for telecasting over a wide area.
"If a feasible system for tele-
casting intercollegiate football
games ultimately materializes it
offers great financial promise, at
least for those institutions which
are in a position to take advan-
tage of it."
PROF. CRISLER is a member
of the NCAA committee for the
Big Ten to study television and is
now in Chicago for a meeting of
the committee. The Asociation
adopts a policy for each football
season. Last year it called for tele-
vising of only one game weekly, the!
so-called "Game of the Week."
Earlier in the week, Dean
Lloyd C. Emmons, athletic coun-
cil chairman at Michigan State
College, called a proposal intro-
duced in the State Legislature
to televise the 1953 MSC-Michi-
gan football game a "sound
idea."1
Stressing the seriousness of the
income situation, the Board re-
port said "a very acute financial
problem" will have to be faced if
the trend continues.
All reserves of the athletic de-
partment have been used to build
the women's swimming pool and
income from this year is earmark-
ed for the project which is ex-
pected to be completed by October.
The gravity of the income drop
lies in the fact that expenses are
largely inelastic and cannot be ex-
pected to diminish in proportion to
income reductions, the report said.
The report also showed that in-
come from hockey, student fees,
athletic coupon books and publi-
cations declined as well as football.
