THE MICHIGAN DAIL'Y FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 26, 1954 OCUMENTARIES: Mrs. Flaherty Describes Film-Making By HARRY STRAUSS Truth of the subject is the most important consideration in making a film in the opinion of Francis :.h, Hubbard Flaherty, and this -is ,,.-: :" what het late husband, Robert Flaherty used in all his films. .,," On campus to appear on a TV: program and to visit the Flaherty{ Film Festival, Mrs. Flaherty said that the documentary films made by her husband and modern "stu- dio" films are very wide apart and cannot be compared.f * * * "MY IUSBAND made his films as the artist does, doing all the work himself. His films are pic- tures of the pattern of life of peo-r ple. To make them, he lived with ES : them and identified himself with "People were never asked to do anything," she continued, "that was not natural to them. Noth- ing in their lives was really changed, though some things were re-enacted." Mrs. Flaherty, who accompanied her husband on most of the film- making trips, noted that a script was never on hand. "Nothing was preconceived. Things worked them- selves out as he worked his way into the subject and worked the subject on the screen," she added. THE ART as portrayed in her husband's films was visual art, "silent and otherwise," for even after the coming of sound, it was used as just another dimensioh that was not too necessary in por- traying life, Mrs. Flaherty said. The Flaherty Foundation, she remarked, was set up a year ago to help the young artist work for the freedom that is needed in the film medium, and "we hope that the. artist presents his work in the Flaherty tradition."

Pasquariello of the romance languages department mused. The piece of plain white soap he was alluding to seemed ordi- nary enough, but according to Prof. Pasquariello it is "part of the building, an institution." IT COULD have been there for many years previously but it was in 1944 that Prof. Pasquariello and Opera Singer To Perform . George London, Metropolitan Opera bass-baritone, will give the eighth concert of the Choral Un- ion Series at 8:30 p.m. Sunday in Hill Auditorium. On his program will be selec- tions ranging from Verdi's "Credo from Othello" and Brahms' "Von ewiger Liebe" through John Niles' "Gambler's Song of the Big Sandy River." Tickets priced at $1.50, $2.50 and $3 may be purchased daily at the University Musical Society office in Burton Tower. his five office-mates came to tice the soap. no-I Stand Made In Teacher Controversy By FREDDI LOEWENBERG Taking a stand on the state teacher certification controversy, the University Joint Committee on the Education of Teachers has recommended "that the existing minima of professional education for the elementary, secondary and junior college certificates be main- tained." The controversy centers around proposed revision of the state cer- tification code to increase the number of hours of professional education courses required and set general education requirements, putting a maximum on the num- ber of hours which a student may have in his field of specialization. * * * THE COMMITTEE'S recommen- dations have been adopted by fac- ulties of both the literary and edu- cation schools. This report would increase the junior college minimum to 20 and the second'ary-elementary to 30 hours, including at least 10 hours of laboratory experience. Much concern has been expressed by state educators that this in- crease in education courses would be at the expense of the student's particular field or con- - centration. Agreeing with present policy, University joint committee mem- bers felt that any revision should establish only minimum require- ments on the length and distribu- tion of work, and leave it to the schools to set their own limits. In addition to the profession- al education courses, the state sub-committee would set up a 40 hour general education require- ment in courses such as humani- ties, social and natural sciences and family living. This would be filled at any time during a stu- dent's four years. In its report, the University com- mittee asks that any requirements be stated in general terms to "give institutional autonomy for work- ing out the most effective pro- grams." Eliot Notes Planning Need The need for a widespread will- ingness to use a planning process and national resources as instru- ments for increasing the strength of the nation, was emphasized by Charles W. Eliot, former executive director of Natural Resources Planning Board, in his lecture, "Planning for the American Heart- land," yesterday. Eliot listed five types of national resources which "are the basis of all power and raw materials, the source of all strength of our na- tion." How we use our resources is a problem of planning," Eliot con- tinued. "We are not going to be ruled by the resources, but should organize them for our purposes." Eliot also cited the steps in the planning process and named or- ganization as one of its chief prob- lems.

PLATFORM: Democrats reveal Plan Members of the Ann Arbor Democratic party last night for- mally outlined their platform for the 1954 city election campaign. Sixteen sections formed the, framework of what Democrats term Ann Arbor's "needs and re- sources." . * * * IN THE PREAMBLE to their platform, party members charged that local Republicans "have long been guilty of government by post- ponement." Main points to be stressed by Democrats in the one month campaign before voters go to the polls in April include the civil service and fair play sections civic improvement plans and un- employment problems to be dealt with. In their platform under civic improvements, the Democrats are charging the "too often discrim- ination is made against minority groups." The Democrats "insist on a fair-practices code on a non-dis- criminatory merit-basis." * * * "A REPRESENTATIVE coordi- nating board with authority to present proposals for capital im- provements" should be created ac- cording to Democratic planners. Special emphasis has been given in the platform to unemployment in Washtenaw county. "The Board of Supervisors should be given a mandate to do its share in com- bining reduction of unemployment with known requirements for roads and otherpublic works in the county" according to the out- line revealed by Democrats yes- terday. Law Expert Views Cases Explaining what cases a respect- able lawyer may accept, Judge George Edwards of the juvenile division of the Wayne County Probate Court emphasized yes- terday, "There is no question that persons accused of being Com- munists under the Smith Act have the right to legal defense. Our whole system of justice is based on the right of all persons to legal counsel," he added. Addressing the Student Bar As- sociation on "Ethical Boundaries in Criminal Law Practice" Judge Edwards presented practicalities of criminal lawyers in the field of ethics and integrity. Judge Edwards advised that the best method of establishing a law practice was by knowing people and serving them in the commun- ity. "Never turn down any case because it is below your stan- dards," he stated. "Accepting business by referral from policemen, bondmen, bailiffs or deputy-sheriffs will not only injure one's reputation, but also may bring disbarment," he warned. Commenting on the role of the court, Judge Edwards stated, "A judge's chief problem is sentencing a man. He is more interested in saving the man than punishing him. In this respect, he added, law is becoming more like a social science. the end of the first semester five- week period averages of those who did not rush, those who rushed and pledged and women who rushed and did not pledge all stood at 2.2. * * * EARLY LAST semester both Panhel and Assembly agreed to work jointly on an evaluation of fall rushing since some decision would have to be reached by the time trial period expired this spring. Panhel went ahead with its survey and submitted two ques- tionnaires, one to the financial advisors of. the sororities to de- termine the effects of fall rush- ing on house finances and one to those dormitory resident di- rectors who had seen both sys- tems in operation on this cam- pus. Before passing out their ques- tionnaire Panhel was required to submit it to Gertrude Mulhollan, assistant dean of women and a specialist in statistical sociology who made. a number of revisions designed to make the survey as objective as possible. * * * IN THEIR report resulting from the questionnaires, the following statistical observation was made. In the last two years of the It was at this time that the building which had been con- demned as a museum was turn- ed over to the romance langu- ages department. At that time the soap was larg- er than it is now "but not very much larger." It was used regu- larly by the six inhabitants and they first began to wonder when it showed no signs of decreasing in size. INTRIGUED BY the soap, Prof. Pasquariello searched the stores to ty and find the brand but he never located it. "They don't make soap like that nowadays, they couldn't or they would go out of business," he said with regret. Estimated to be in its tenth year of constant use the soap is still being used "three or four' times a day." The apparently everlasting soap seems to be as much a part of the tradition of the Romance Langu- ages Bldg. as the bats that occa- sionally fly down from the tower. Architect To Talk Steen E.

Price of admission is 50 cents. former spring rushing system 43 quota places in sororities were unfilled in 1951 and 55 in 1952. For the two fall rushing seasons 14 quota units were unfilled in 1952 and 15 in 1953. Panhel President Martha Hill, '54, pointed out that under the old system the quota vacancies were sustained by two or three houses whereas under the fall rushing plan the vacancies were spread over more houses. One sorority, Delta Zeta, which regularly had a very sizable num- ber of unfilled quota places, drop- ped off campus in the fall of '52. THE ASSEMBLY report to Pan- hel based on a survey of inde- pendent women who had exper- ienced both fall and spring rush- ing summarized independent opin- ion as "opposed to fall rushing." The report on the effect of fall rushing on five points--the "big sister' program, leadership train- ing, the dorm athletic program, Lantern Night and other dormi- tory functions. Assembly pointed out in their report that this questionnaire was considered inadequate by many in- dependent women because it failed to ask an evaluation of the two systems and their effect on the individual woman rushee. ,4 Local Panhellenic Discusses Fall, Spring RushingIssue (Continued from Page 1) II I Radio Jobs Open The Radio Guild of WUOM has openings for men interested in radio acting.
