LXIV, No. 62 ANN ARBOR, MICHIGAN, SATURDAY, DECEMBER 5, 1953 FOUR PAGES Conference Irons Out 'U' Problems Combined Group Discusses Housing Plan, North Campus, Other Issues By JOEL BERGER North Campus, final examinations, the Michigan housing plan and the University calendar were discussed by over 60 campus leaders yesterday afternoon at the Inglis home during the third semi-annual student-faculty-administration conference. Although no decisions as to policy were made by the group, a general "ironing out" of problems resulted from the discussions. * * * * STUDENTS DISCUSSING the North Campus said the new Uni- ''Hocey Team Downs Mc Gill, 7-2 versity addition was located too fa were told, however, that planse are underway for transportation to the new campus when more stu- dents will be going there for class- es. Concerning the working rela- tionship between the two cam- puses in the future, administra- tion heads pointed out all st- dents will be housed on the main campus, while activities, and studly and library, facilities will also be centered there. Total enrollment at the Univer- sity may someday be limited if not enough space is available in dor- ,nitories to adequately house all incoming students, it was pointed out. The feeling that freshmen need a place to orient themselves t to was discussed by the group con- sidering the housing plan. THE POSSIBILITY of larger- scale counselling service in dormi- tories was mentioned, along with the-question of whether or not the present set-up helps students in their studies. A comparison was also drawn between the "Michigan plan" and the "collegiate" type of housing. Under this plan, used by Ox- ford University and o th e r' schools, faculty members live in the dorms, and students identify themselves with their particular college, not the University as a whole. Here, it was pointed out, students identify themselves with. interest groups. Possible curtaihment-of total en- rollment, which would probably limit the number of out-of-state students, studying here, was dis- cussed, along with the possibility of one-semester residence in the dormitories. A plan proposed by Prof. Doug- las Crary of the geography depart- ment, by which finals would be given before Christmas vacation was brought into consideration by the group considering the Univer- sity calendar. * * * THREE TO four weeks vacation would be given during the Christ- mas recess if Prof. Crary's plan was adopted, while the staggered fin- als would help avoid the conges- tion caused by students attempting to leave town for the vacation dur- ing the same day, it was said. Students on this group said finals should not begin the day after a semesters last classes, as was done last spring.' Faculty members came out against the student proposal of not taking final exams if a student had a sufficiently high average in the course. The possibility of using a quarter instead of the semester system was also discussed. r Concerning foreign students stu- dying -here, the group considering this topic felt these students should be treated as individuals, not en masse. Several students in this group said they didnt feel for- malized affairs for foreign students helped integrate them with the campus. The conference was arranged by the Union secretariat committee. ar from the present campus. They SWorld News Roundup By The Associated Press Arrested .

Cooney Nets 'Hat Trick' For Victors Gets First Goal I n41 Seconds By HANLEY GURWIN A determined Wolverine hockey team opened its season in a con- vincing manner last night as. Mi- chigan completely dominated play to turn back a McGill sextet, 7-2, before a near capacity crowd at the Coliseum. The Maize and Blue puckmen outplayed the invaders from Mon- treal right from the opening face- off and were never behind in the one-sided contest. PAT COONEY,. right-wing on Michigan's first line, netted the first of his three goals only 41 seconds after the game had started. Cooney, playing with glasses on for the first time, blasted the puck past Redman goalie Moe Jacques after taking passes from linemates Doug Mullen and George Chin. With Cooneys initial goal as, an early inspiration, the Maize and Blue continued to apply the pressure throughout the entire first period and before intermis- sion had built up a comfortable 4-0 lead. Sophomore B ill McFarland, playing for the first time as a Wol- verine, performed brilliantly and bagged the first of his two tallies and the Wolverines second of the night at the 5:26 mark of the op- ening period. Less than three minutes later, Doug Philpdtt, who assisted on McFarland's gaol, bagged one of his own as he swept in from the right boards on a breakaway, fak- ed the McGill goaltender out of position, and deposited the puck neatly in the twines. s s COONEY SCORED the second of his markers at 13:05 of the per- iod to end the scoring for the first session. Captain Jim Haas, play- ing defense again after serving as a forward last season, and Chin both received assists on Cooney's goal. The McGill sextet returned to the ice for the second session de- termined to get back in the game' and promptly proceeded to score the first of its two goals at the 40 second mark of the period. Wol- verine Burt Dunn was serving a two-minute penalty for interfer- ence when the puck bounced off Philpott into the Michigan net for the McGill counter. The goal was credited to Guy Bourgoin since he was the last Redman to touch the puck with the assist going to wing Pete Johnson. Shortly after the beginning of the second stanza, Jay Goold, so- phomore left-wing' on the second line, crashed into the boards be- hind the McGill net and had to retire for the night. The extent of Goold's injury is not known but it is doubtful whether he will see ac- tion in tonight's encounter. The loss of Goold caused a shake-up of the Michigan forward lines which resulted in rather un- steady play for most of the second period. However, with just a few minutes left in the period, a pair of newcomers, McFarland and Don MacArthur, playing on the third line, netted two more goals, bring- ing the Wolverine total to six.

BOSTON - (P) - Harvard President Nathan M. Pusey said yesterday that it is probably true that "some dozens" among 100,000 H a r v a r d graduates "flirted with or were indeed in- volved with communism at some time during their careers." But he added, "against the wrongs of these few, must be weighed the achievements of all the rest of the 100,000 ... sub- stantial citizens in almost ev- ery community in the United States, men of unquestioned loyalty, leaders in the war ef- fort, in all the productive ef- forts of our country." * - I * WINSTON CHURCHILL . . .

By PAT ROELOFS Approximately 55% of Univer- sity seniors were reported to have taken personality tests this week as part of a national survey by the Commission on Human Resources and Advanced Training. A mere 20% of fourth-year stu- dents took' the tests during the first two days of testing. * * * WITH ONLY rough estimates of the number of people. taking the two hour- examinations yesterday, the total number of students par- ticipating in five days of testing approached the figure of 1214. Ac- cording to a pre-examination sur- vey, reports from University offi- cials indicated that there are be- tween 22 and 23 hundred seniors enrolled this semester. (It is to be noted that seniors in the School of Medicine, School of Dentistry, Law School and School of Social Work are graduate stu- dents.) The Medical School, with an enrollment of 128 men and wo- men this semester, reported nearly 100% participation in the survey. One hundred twenty me- dical students took the test dur- ing the week, with but two un- accounted for, several volunteer- ing to take a make-up test and two students unable to take the test because of illness. Also showing a high percentage of student participation was the college of pharmacy where 26 out Wire Count Claimed Short WASHINGTON-(R)-Sen. Mc-j Carthy (R-Wis.) took issue with the White House yesterday on the number of telegrams it has receiv- ed in response to his "Write the President" appeal. He contended its figures were too low. In late afternoon, Murray Sny- der, assistant presidential press secretary, announced that up to 4 p.m., EST, 1,500 telegrams had been received. Snyder gave out no breakdown on how many favored and how many opposed McCar- thy's policy of a crackdown on allies, notably Britain, whom Mc- Carthy accuses of trading with Red China.* * of 28 students reported for the tests. All of the schools have been making arrangements for make- up sessions and will continue to give the exams upon appointment during the following week. * * * THIRD HIGH figure was re- ported by the School of Dentistry where 84 out of a total of 83 stu- dents took the personality tests. F i n a l figures from other schools and colleges, not includ- ing arranged make-up tests, are as follows: literary college, 244; architecture and design school, 66; natural resources school, 47; education school, 72; business administration school, 168; en- gineering college, 80; nursing school, 26. A rough estimate of 80 students volunteered from the School of Music to take the test yesterday. Opera To Hold Makeup Meeting A meeting of all members of the makeup committee of "Up N' Atom," 1953 Union Opera, should attend a.meeting at 11 a.m. today in Rm. 3G of the Union, produc- tion chairman Bert Hamburger, '54 BAd., said yesterday. Ushers are still needed for the Opera performances Wednesday through Friday. According to Mike Scherer, '54, any male student in- terested may sign up daily in Rm. 3G of the Union. Script of the Opera, which will play in Lansing Saturday and tour six cities during Christmas vaca- tion, was written by Howard Nem- erovski,'54E. Dealing with home brew,, bu- reaucracy, atomic fission and the hill folks of Tennessee, the Opera will produce two atomic explosions onstage. but final figures were not yet com- puted. The tests will indicate personal-, ity characteristics of people pre- paring for professional and non- professional occupations. It is hop- ed by Commission director DaeI Wofle that college curriculums can be revised to meet the needs of students majoring in liberal edu- cation subjects if the results of the tests and following tests prove that the people in this category usually do not find occupations in the field in which they concentrate. Students from more than 100 American colleges and universities are cooperating with the Commis- sion in the study. Results will be reported sometime in 1954. Drive Reaches Half-Way Goal First-day contributions to the Galens Annual Christmas Tag Day totaled "over $3,000" according to a report last night from the so- ciety. Representatives of Galens ex- pressed satisfaction at the results and extended their appreciation to University students and towns- people for their support. The drive will continue today, concentrating on the downtown Ann Arbor area. Galens supports the operation of a workshop for children pati- ents at University hospital in addi- tion to sponsoring an annual Christmas party and buying chil- dren's- books and games for gen- eral use in the hospital. This year's goal is $6,500.

TAL K Hint Meeting With Russia In January, Variances Noted In West's Stand TUCKER'S TOWN, Bermuda- (M-President Eisenhower, Prime Minister Churchill and Premier, Laniel exchange opinions on So- viet policy at the first session of their historic conference in this winter holiday island yesterday. And their foreign ministers were reported to have agreed on hold- ing a meeting-probably in Jan- uary-with Russia's V. M. Molotov. * * * SPOKESMEN present at the first meeting of Eisenhower, Chur- chill and Laniel in the swank, tightly guarded conference room in the Mid-Ocean Club said there naturally were "certain divergen- cies" in their views of past, pres- ent and future Soviet policy. This was no surprise, as the meeting had been arranged to harmonize the views of the in- ternational situation held by Britain, France and the United States. Their first meeting, taking place just 3/ hours after President Eisenhower had' landed in this flowery island, lasted 2 -hours and 15 minutes. The informants said the West- ern reply to the Soviet note of Nov. 26, proposing such a confer- ence in Berlin, would be a short, direct acceptance of the idea of a parley, but they did not disclose the proposed time or place. How- ever, it is not likely to be before mid-January, after the French presidential elections. THERE WAS NO hint of the divergencies that showed up at the Eisenhower - Churchill - LaniQl talks. After the meeting, the conferees dressed for a formal dinner 'at Government' House. The three Western leaders already had settled amicably one difference-over protocol- and Churchill won by putting President Eisenhower in the middle one of the three white wicker chairs in which the trio sat for photographers. Eisen- hower had insistel that Chur- chill, as host, sit in the middle chair. The 79-year-old Churchill is the only survivor of the Roosevelt- Stalin-Churchill wartime meet- ings. The last such international meeting attepded by an American president was eight years ago at Potsdam when President Truman was present. The conference of the Big Three here began an hour after their foreign ministers had started far- ranging talks in the rigidly pa- trolled club.

He said the 1,500 figure was "probably an honest mistake, but a grievous mistake, in a case in which there is little room for mis- take." Snyder insisted that 1,500 was the number received up to 4 p.m. Later he announced that a a. t . - - -- s . . . , a .4 (EDITORS NOTE: This is the last In a series of articles dealing with the driving ban and current efforts toward its modification or elimina- tion.)
