The University of Alabama may
have to face a court battle over its
refusal to admit two Negro wo-
men to its school of post graduate
studies.
The women, both June gradu-
ates of Miles Memorial College in
Birmingham, were told by the
dean that Alabama laws prevent-
ed their enrollment at the Uni-
versity.
A Birmingham lawyer, Arthur
Shores is preparing to appeal
directly to University president
John Gallalee. Shores stated
that if Gallalee will not admit
the two, he will file a suit In

Federal Court in Birmingham
on the grounds that the Uni-
versity's refusal violates consti-
tutional rights.
T h e Crimson-White, school
newspaper, in an editorial at-
tacking impending court action,
stated:
. . Thinking Southerners,
thank God, realize that big prob-
lems can't be solved by new legis-
lation and force. The mighty sweep
of court injunction does not make
the two parties involved happier."
The editorial continues: ". . .
we maintain that there is no race
hatred among the vast majority
of Southerners. Certainly we se-

gregate our schools, busses, and so-
cial meeting places. It's only good
sense . . . segregation does not
meanthat we Southerners hate
Negroes. It means that we realize
we are different in our ways and'
habits in general."
UNIVERSITY of Illinois trus-
tees are demanding the formula
of Krebiozen, before allowing
study of the controversial 'cancer
drug' to continue at the Univer-
sity.
A committee, appointed to study
the drug stated that they found
"no acceptable evidence that any
malignent tumor has been cured
by Krebiozin.

Backing the Student Legislature
as it begins its seventh year of
operation on campus is a wide-
spread student interest in the gov-
erning body's activities reported in
a recent representative survey.
The poll revealed that SL, whose
chief function was once taken care
of under a group known as the
Gripes Committee, is now firmly
established in students' minds as
a full-fledged legislative body.
BUT OTHER factors not so en-
couraging to SL members were al-
so pointed up in the 300-student
survey. Psychology-sociology stu-
dents who took the poll in colla-
boration with theSurveyResearch
Center reported that the campus'
main idea of SL was a forum for
reflectingmopinion rather than a
decision-making body.
Questioned students indicated
further that they doubted the
representativeness of SL. Gener-
ally skeptical as to motives
which induce students to run on
the campus ticket, a majortiy of
those polled reported that "per-
sonal prestige" was the main
reason for seeking legislature
positions.
The source of the problem was
pointed up in reports indicating

that 40 per cent of students voted
for friends or "names they knew"
rather than platform issues.
Though student interest in
the six-year old governing body
was nearly universal, knowledge
of specific SL actions was sparse.
More than 20 per cent of those
questioned could not remember
anything SL had done.
Concerning SL influence on the
University administration and the
student body, the poll showed it
to be increasing but still not sig-
nificant.
VIEWED IN historical perspec-
tive, SL has come a long way in
building up student interest over
its six-year existence.
The now firmly resolved " ques-
tion of whether a representative
government would work on cam-
pus was in 1946 a highly debatable
issue.
In that year, interest in the
new group ran high, according
to former SL president Leonard
Wilcox, '55L. The veteran era
and the overcrowded campus it
brought with it necessitated an
organization to reflect student
opinions and provide services
for the University population.
But the biggest interest in SL
came from those who felt the gov-
erning body could without reserva-
tion cure all the campus' problems.
Consequently, SL soon found itself
mainly concerned with such mat-
ters as putting up convenient pen-
cil sharpeners and sponsoring pep
rallies.
In 1948 and 1949, apathetic
students complained of SL's
worthlessness and e I e c t i o n
frauds, and SL took to focusing
on specific issues to arouse more
sincere interest.
It greatly streamlined its own
HST Asks End
Of Aircraft Strike
WASHINGTON--P)-President
Truman yesterday called upon
both workers and management to
end the strike at the Douglas and
Lockheed aircraft plants in Cali-
fornia in the interest of national
defense.
The White House disclosed that
the President had sent a telegram

panies and the union officials in-

organization and in 1949 and 1950
it began to.emphasize safeguard-
ing students rights. Action in these
years and those that followed re-
vived interest, as the survey indi-
cated. Though skepticism on some
phases of SL action is widespread,
practically no one today would
brand it a "worthless" organiza-
tion.
