Professors Discuss Newspapers' Value

To

Discuss

NVew Plans
The University's foreign student
set-up, North Campus, Michigan
housing plan and the University
calendar will be discussed by more
than 60 campus leaders at 2 p.m.
today in the Inglis home during
the third semi-annual student-
faculty-administration conference.

Television and radio are not
taking the place of newspapers,
both Prof: Kenneth Stewart of
the journalism department and
Prof. Garnet Garrison, director of
University television, emphatical-
ly said, rather they supplement
newspapers.
Though New Yorkers may feel
they are getting all the news from
radio and television during the
newspaper strike, I'm sure after a
while they will miss newspapers,
remarked Prof. Garrison.
"FOR ON radio or TV the news

favorite news commentator you
can read your regular columnist
at any time during the day, he
added.
Prof. Stewart commented that
various polls have proven that
more radio and TV listeners
make more newspaper readers.
Radio and TV are transitory and
only highlight the news and this
stimulates their listeners to look
for further elaborations of the
news in newspapers," he explain-
ed.
Also, Prof, Garrison felt, after
hearing a news broadcast people
like to check the newspaper for
other people's reactions.
* * *
ADVERTISING is one facet of
a newspaper that TV can not come
pete with, asserted Prof. Garrison,
for television can never duplicate
the extensive department store
ads in newspapers.

Both men felt that radio and
television have influenced news-
paper style. Prof. Stewart elab-
orated the basic role of the
newspaper has changed. Today
they are more concerned with
background and entertainment
which mainly means more fea-
tures, since radio and TV have
removed the importance of im-
mediacy in newspapers.
Another effect of radio and TV
on newspapers is that the news-
paper of today is easier to read,
commented Prof. Garrison, and
there is more correlation of the
news.
They both reached the conclu-
sion that radio and TV have pro-
vided a stimulation for newspa-
pers.
One student commented, "News-
papers will never be outmoded for
you can't wrap up a package in an
old radio or TV set."

Dudok Slated.
For Lecture
Willem M. Dudok, noted Dutch
architect and town planner, will
lecture at 4:15 p.m. today in Rack-
ham Amphitheater on "My Per-
sonal Practice."
Dudok; who is known as the pio-

city of Hilversum and is also re-
sponsible for planning numerous
other cities in Holland.

last year and this year. He was
also an outfielder on the Univer-
sity's NCAA championship base-

sons.

er Charge," Merritt (Tim) Green,

presented, the football team on-
stage. Don McEwen, '53, of the
track team joined them in their
routine.
Some of the University's most
famous football players have been
in past Operas. Perhaps the best
known was All-American Tom
Harmon, '41, who appearedas
Jimmy Roosevelt in 1940's "Four
Out of Five," which took its title
from the ancient comment "four
out of five girls are beautiful,
while the fifth goes to Michigan."
* * *
FOREST EVASHEVSKI, '41, and
Bob Westfall, '41, were the other
football players in the opera that
year. Both were in the dancing
chorus.
Evashevski, present Univer-
of Iowa football coach, was a
literary college senior class
president, while Westfall went
on to become an All-American

Other footballers who have ap-
peared in past operas were Bob
Chappius, '4'8, Chuck Ortmann,
