-The Michigan Daily.
ANY STUDENT scholastically eligible and interested in either
the writing or advertising end of newspaper work may attend one of
the introductory meetings. No previous experience is necessary.
Editorial tryout meetings will be held at 7:15 p.m. today and
4:15 p.m. tomorrow. The business staff will hold its last tryout
meeting 4:15 p.m. today. All groups will meet in the Student
Publications Bldg., 420 Maynard St.
Winner of many collegiate newspaper awards, The Daily is go-
ing into its 65th year of publication independent of the University.
Coming out six mornings a week, The Daily has a circulation of 7,000
with the latest deadline in the state.
* * * *
THE $500,000 PLANT which houses The Daily is the finest col-
legiate newspaper plant in the nation surpassing even those of some
small town periodicals. It is published in its own shop complete with
four Linotypes, a $70,000 rotary press and a photo-engraving machine.
Among some of The Daily's more noted alumni are Gov.
Thomas Dewey of New York, Frank Gilbreth, author of "Cheaper
by the Dozen," Chesser Campbell, vice-president of the Chicago
Tribune, Brewster Campbell, executive city editor of the Detroit
Free Press, and Stan Swinton, foreign correspondent for the
Associated Press.
Situated behind Betsy Barbour Dormitory, the building was com-
pleted and occupied in 1932. Profits accumulated during the boom
of the 1920's completely paid for it.
Nineteen young men aggravated over campus conditions found-}
ed The Daily in 1890. Great changes have occurred since then and
through the years The Daily has grown from the original 8 by 12 inch
sheet with advertising on the front page to the professional looking
eight column paper it is today.
WRITING STAFFS
Tryouts on editorial, sports and women's staffs will learn the
fundamentals of headwriting and proof reading and later news, fea-
ture and editorial writing. Following his initial semester, the tryout
is automatically advanced to the "soph staff" with the added respon-
sibility of covering a beat connected with the University or Ann
Arbor. Here he will have the opportunity to meet other campus
personalities, members of the faculty and administration and oc-
casionally a famous national figure.
The Daily staffer will then be eligible for one of the salaried jun-
ior positions which entails putting out the paper one night a week
at the same time continuing on with one of the choice beats. In his
senior year he may rise to one of the top senior editorial positions.
BUSINESS STAFF
Beginners on the business staff will be taught the rudiments of
advertising which includes layout, servicing, contracts and promo-
tions. This newly acquired knowledge will be used in working direct-
ly with local merchants. New business staffers will also become fa-
miliar with circulation, finance and business;management. As a
soph staffer he will be able to specialize in the field of his choice.
In following semesters the staffer will have the chance to fill
one of the paid junior managerial positions. As a senior he may
become one of the high level senior managers.
PHOTOGRAPHERS
Positions are also open for staff photographers. The Daily furn-
ishes all photography equipment. Later photographers may work
themselves up to paying positions.
Come early. Avoid the rush.

Name Ation
[ Marvin L. Niehuss, University
vice-president, yesterday put the
4 University on 'record as opposing
the latest proposal iri Michigan
State College's campaign to be-
come Michigan State University.
A bill to change MSC's name
from "Michigan State College of
Agriculture and Applied Science"
to "Michigan State University of
Agriculture and Applied Science"
was introduced into the Senate by
Sen. Harry F. Hittle (R-East Lan-
sing).
Niehuss said, in a statement,
"If the name were changed to
Michigan State University of Ag-
ricuture and Applied Sciences it
would soon be known only as
Michigan State University.
"We repeat we have no objec-
tion to Michigan State Cllege
X uthg the name university, pro-
vided no name nis not similar
to that of the University of Michi-
gan that it would cause unneces-
sary confusion and mistaken iden-
tity," he added.

EAST LANSING (Special)
Michigan State students are final-
ly getting up steam over the pro-
posed name change to Michigan
State University.
Whether it will build up any
pressure - perhaps on the State
Legislature-or just evaporate as
so niuch hot air remains to be
seen.

AT ANY RATE, students last
week began their first united ef-
forts in support of the name
change bill, now being studied by
the House Committee on Educa-
tional Institutions.
After more than a week of
cautioning the student body
not to accept the proposal with-
outhcareful consideration, the
Michigan State News, daily
campus newspaper, MI o n d a y
morning came out in editorial
support of the change.
Wednesday evening, the MSC
Student Congress, which had pre-
viously sent a resolution favoring
the change to the legislature, ap-
proved a plan to obtain student
signatures on a petition to be sent
to legislators considering the bill.
The petitions are now in the
process of being signed.
THURSDAY afternoon, Dave
Hyman, president of student gov-
ernment (of which the Student
Congress is a branch); Pat Yaroch,
State News editor; and Marilyn
McBride, s t u d e n t government
treasurer, appeared before the
Housecommittee and convinced
' members that a two-week exten-
sion of time to further consider
the bill and hold a public hearing
'should be requested.
The name change proposal or-
iginally was scheduled to die in
committee three days ago.
While there is no campus-wide
opinion that the measure will pass,

A Campus sale of 'Ensians
will be held from 9 a.m. to 3

nounced.
Neary Urges
Student Tax
At Meeting
The question of a student tax
was the crux of the controversy at
last night's meeting of the Stu-
dent Legislature Constitution and
' structure study committee.
Legislature president Bob Nea-
ry, '54BAd, suggested a .plan
whereby a student tax for SL may
be initiated by a two-thirds vote
of the Legislature and ratification
of the constitution by a majority
of students voting at the next all-
campus election.
+ " s
THE REVISED constitution with
the tax provision would be pre-
sented to SL, to the student body
in the spring elections, and then
the Student'Affairs Committee.
The constitutional authoriza-
tion would include a specified
amount, yet to be determined by
the SL finance committee and
approved by the Legislature ac-
cording to Neary.
The SL president claimed "To a
certain extent, response to the tax
proposal would be a vote of con-i
fidence or no confidence in the
Legislature."
After the committee passed this
tax provision, the group voted down
a suggestion for a method of re-
call for Legislature mnembers since
such a method would be unfeas-
ible under the present Hare system
of all campus voting.
Hatcher Tours

President Harlan H. Hatcher,

'Middle Way'
Suggested
By Baldwin
By ARLENE LISS
Reviewing the world situation'
at "the dangerous dawn on the
atomic age," Hanson Baldwin,
military editor of the New York
Times advocated a policy of the
middle way or balance of power
in a lecture last night.'
Speaking in the fourth of the
Lecture Series, Baldwin attacked
the approach that favors a pre-
ventive war against Russia. He
claimed that war is by no means
inevitable and if it came it would
not solve all our ills. He also dis-
missed an isolation policy, "we
need the world and the world
needs us."

BERLIN - (AP) - Soviet Russia, striving to wreck the Western de-

United Nations terms, yesterday kept the foreign ministers in a futile
deadlock on Germany.
