'THE FIGHTING QUAKER'
Pearson Piles Up Law Suits, Laurels

IHC Christmas Project

WISE GUYS:
Tongue-in-Cheek Students,
Have Fun at Registration

BY BEA NEUFELD
Drew Pearson has been called
everything from a "chronic liar"
to "the most influential newspaper
man in the United States."
His daily column appears in 650
papers in each of the 48 states,
Japan, Latin America, India, the
Philippines, Hawaii, Guam and
England.

ERNEST GOODMAN, defense
counsel for three of the six Com-
munists% on trial for conspiracy,
wound up his final argument yes-
terday and Federal Judge Frank
A. Picard pointed out he would
charge the jury Monday.
Rumors floating around cam-
pus hold that four to six faculty
members here have received
subpoenas from the House group,
but no reports as yet have been
confirmed by the University, or
by Rep. Clardy. No University
students have reported receipts
of subpoenas.
In January, Rep. Clardy was in-
vited to the campus by the Student
Legislature Academic Freedom
Sub-Commission to debate with
Prof. Preston Slosson of the his-
tory department the merits of the
activities of his committee.
QUESTION of the proposed de-
bate was "Have recent legislative
investigations into alleged sub-
version contributed to the wel-
fare of the United States?
The Representative refused
the invitation to speak on the
"pro" side of the controversy
since it would be improper for
"a member of a committee about
to hold hearings in Michigan to
engage in a discussion about
that hearing before it is held."
-He claimed "the very wording
of the subject indicates a bias or
lack of knowledge."
Clardy went on to say that if the
Academic Freedom Sub-Commis-
Sion does not "recognize the fact
that there is subversion, I am
afraid it would do no good to dis-
cuss any phase of the subject" with
the group.
But this week, SL voted to per-
mit the Sub-Commission to ask a
representative of Clardy to debate
the subject with Prof. Slosson
sometime after the hearings.

name - calling and physical
threats. President Franklin D.
Roosevelt at one time called him
a "chronic liar," and Senator
Joseph McCarthy has labeled
him a "political terrorist and
character assassin"' and a "voice
of international communism."
Nor is there any love lost by the
fiery Pearson over the Senator
from Wisconsin. Pearson filed a
$5,100,000 slander suit ih March,
1951charging that McCarthy phy-
sically assaulted him and entered
into a conspiracy with others to
drive him out of business.
He accuses McCarthy of being
'a headline seeker' and a danger
to our democracy. "People think
McCarthy is discovering Commu-
nist spies, but he isn't.
"The State Department con-
victed spies in the government'
three years before the Senator
made his first speech. And they
would continue without him," he
said.

fore McCarthy, Pearson, himself,
exposed a Canadian spy ring. "But
then I was criticized for being un-
fair to the Russians," he remark-
ed. "They were our friends then
and the information might upset
our relations with them."
Always in one kind of a law j
suit or another, Pearson set a
record for being in the biggest
case in the history of the United
.States. In 1938, Pearson and
Robert Allen wrote in their
"Washington Merry-Go-Round"
column that Rep. Martin Sween-
ey of Ohio had opposed the ap-
pointment of Emerich Freed as
a federal district judge in Cleve-
land because Freed was a Jew.
Sweeney filed libel suits against
every paper in each of the 48 states
which carried the column. After
Sweeney lost in 20 states and the
case was brought up before the Su-
preme Court, he dropped the rest
of the charges.
BECAUSE of his dynamic radio
programs and columns, Pearson,
who is a Quaker, was called by
ex-President Herbert Hoover, "the
Fighting Quaker." This is a grave
insult to one of that faith, for the
Quakers are a peaceloving people
who are adverse to fights of any
kind.
Pearson retaliated by paying
Hoover, who is also a Quaker,
the compliment of calling him
"the Quaking Fighter."

Ever had the urge to poke a
little fun at registration railroad;
tickets?
University employees who sort-
ed the repetitious blanks recently'
found that you're not alone if you
have.

FOR INSTANCE, they discover-
ed among the campus population1
sons of camel drivers, daughters1
of seamstresses for casket compan-
ies, and offspring of sword-swal-
lowers.
Married students, apparently'
bored with reality, replied vehe-
mently that their husbands and
wives are "full time spouses."
One woman didn't name any
guardian, but put "don't I wish"
in the space for "spouse."

Church preference blanks, too,
proved vulnerable targets for ton-
gue-in-cheek students. Their re-
sponses show that as well as more
conventional religions there are ad-
vocates here of tree worship, capi-
talism, anti-Nazism and Scrabble.
Of much interest to railroad-
ticket filers was the information
that many students were born in
1954.

Ancient and far-off countries
coupled with a history of American
crime are among the great variety
of exhibits being shown in the Uni-
versity's museums and libraries.
The Museum of Art in AlumniI
Hall is offering African sculpture.I
The many different types of sym-
bols used in ceremonies when
young men advance from the ado-
lescent stage to adulthood are
prominent in the display.
STUDENTS OF Architecture
and Design have set up a display
of black and white prints, most of
which are modern.
The Museum of Archaeology
has converted its rooms into a
Roman town in Egypt. Various
occupations are depicted and
childrens' toys, a typical Roman
courtyard, household equipment,
marriage rites and an EgyptianI
'Book of the Dead' written on
papyrus are shown.
In the cases of the Clements
Library is a study of American
crime, ranging from dualing to
forgery.
Among the many books, pam-
phlets and manuscripts are-stories
of murder, smuggling and the

Arnold used to sell out his coun-
try to the British when he offered
them West Point.
Piracy, slavery mob murder, tor-
ture and stories of horse thieves
as well as a forgery of George
Washington's name are also on
display.
At the University Museum a ro-
tunda exhibit of Tibetian Art with
its many superstitious meanings
is being shown including banners
from temples representing saints,
Gods and dieties of the Tibetan
people.
Rosarys, ceremonial knives, jew-
elry of turquoise and silver and
brass dishes used in the home are
among the many displays.

YESTERDAY'S meeting was ar-
ranged by Council Director Alan
W. MacCarthy and was led by the
Chairman of the Council's Board,
of Directors Earl H. Cress.
Originally, the five-member
majority had planned to sub-
mit its recommendation to the
April meeting of the Council's
Board but it is probable that the
plan will not be submitted if the
same objective can be achieved
without formal amendment of
the Council's charter.
The SAC student members will
attend the April Board meeting to
become more familiar with the
Council's activities.
Yesterday's meeting also pro-
duced suggestions that an oppor-
tunity be given to interested stu-
dents to petition for the Board
positions, and that a panel of
names be submitted to President
Hatcher for final choice. Under
procedure used last fall, only two
names to fill as many positions
were sent to the President.
illiais Speaks
At Lincoln Dinner
Addressing members of the
Washtenaw County Republican,
Committee at their Lincoln Day
dinner last night, Undersecre-
tary of Commerce Walter Wil-
liams appealed to party workers to
help increase the ranks of the
GOP. '
In the coming elections Wil-
liams said, "With an army of will-
ing workers, well organized and
well financed, possessed of an in-
spiring understanding of the value
of that for which they strive, there
is no question as to the final out-
come-a strong supporting Con-
gress for President Eisenhower."

Speedup Set
From now on transi~ints of


grades will be sent to students ro
once a school year, instead of twice,
according to Assistant Registrar
Edward Grosbeck.
The new system which was in-
stituted this semester is designed,
to enable the student to get his
grades more quickly than in the
past.

Grosbeck explained that send-
ing out transcripts at the end
of the fall semester often meant
students did not get them be-
fore registration because trans-
cripts are sent to the home ad-
dress.
Handing out the grades at regis-
tration willuaid the student in
planning his courses, Grosbeck,
added.
Full transcripts will be sent to
students at the end of the spring
semester and at the end of the
