ICC Chief

Quits; New
Head Named
Jack Hilberry, '56A&D, president
of the Intercooperative Council,
resigned from office recently, in
order to devote more time to the
ICC's Kingsley House of which he
is president.
Phyllis Lipsky '55, ICC Secre-
tary, will serve as president until
the Council elections some time
in May.
The resignation stemmed from
two factors. The ICC felt that
someone was crucially needed to
head Kingsley House, since it is
a recent acquisition and now in
the process of organization and
repair. Also Hilberry plans to
be married on June 19 and move
into Kingsley House with his bride.
* * *
IN HIS "Abdication Speech"
printed in the ICC monthly news-
paper, the "Co-operator", Jack
Hilberry reflected upon his re-
snigation from the ICC presi-
dency and on co-ops as a whole.
"The value of co-ops centers
about their very essence as
democratic organizations, rela-
tively free from dictated de-
cisions by outside authorities,
dependent upon individual and
group responsibility for their
success and involved in solving
real basic problems of living.
There is no other such organi-
zation on campus," he continu-
ed.
"There is nothing new here,"
the statement went on, "we all
realize that these values are ours.
But it is good to nail them down,
state and examine them again.
They're impressive."
"Naturally it's a relief to be
out of the presidency because of
all the worry involved," he con-
cluded. "But, I'm going on to a
place that isn't running as smooth-
ly as the ICC, and doing a good
job in both places was impos-
sible."

CANNELL SPEAKS:
Psychologist
Brainwashin
By FLORENCE HUBER
There - is nothing mysterious
about the brainwashing techni-
que, says Dr. Charles F. Cannell,
psychologist and field director of
the University's Survey Research
Center.
"One might compare this to the
possibilities of a man's catching
cold," he said. "Everyone around
you is being exposed to the cold
germs. Resistance to catching
cold is a matter depending on the
condition of each individual. If
one person has a great deal of
resistance, he may be able to go
on indefinitely without catching
cold, but there is a likelihood that
sooner or later he will succumb."
WHAT DOES this new term
mean? Essentially, brainwashing
is a type of mental torture where-
by a man is forced to admit an
act he did not commit. Commu-
nist inquisitors have refined brain-
washing down to a science, and
forced such minds as that of the
Hungarian Cardinal Mindszenty
to "confess" to treason.
American prisoners of war
have told stories of inhumane
treatment meted out by cap-
tors striving for the opportunity
to claim POW's that have, for
example, confessed to "carrying
on germ warfare."
This result entails a psycholo-
gical switch of allegiances for the
majority of American prisoners.
Realizing that the physiological
and psychological are intimately
related, methods applying pres-
sure to both aspects of man's per-
sonality have been devised.
THE MARINE officer forced by
his Communist interrogators to
"confess" to germ warfare, Colonel
Frank H. Schnable, breaks down
the technique into four points:

--Dany--Jonn Hirtzei
NINETEEN-EIGHTY-FIVE?

Design Students Finish
Fuller Dymraxion Dome

Discusses
g Technique
1) Stripping the victim of all
personal dignity and exposing him
to constant degradation and hu-
miliation.
2) Reducing him to physical
and mental exhaustion.
3) Using fear and intimidation,
rather than physical mistreatment
as weapons.
4) Poisoning the mind by in-
stilling false hopes at some per-
iods while creating in the victim
a mistaken sense of personal and
national guilt.
Working on the theory that
every man has a breaking point
at which he will no longer re-
sist, the Communists brought
such pressure to bear upon the
mind of Major General William
F. Dean, that he now suggests
prisoners take poison rather than
face captivity.
Dr. Cannell remarked that there
is nothing new about the whole
idea, but that the Communists
have used brainwashing propa-
ganda as a valuable weapon of
fear. "For the purposes of psy-
chological warfare, brainwashing
has been made more subtleand
stories have made it seem some-
thing devilishly ingenious the
Communists have invented."
Wesley Allinsmith, of the
psychology department, feels that
one of the important psychologi-
cal principles on which the Com-
munists rely is "identification
with the aggressor."
LECTURES:
World Travel
Series Slated
Ann Arbor's first World Travel
and Adventure Series will start
October 10, featuring world fam-
ous travelers lecturing and show-
ing their own 'color movies.
The tentative schedule of speak-
ers and dates has been planned,
with Len Stuttman lecturing on
October 10, on "Across Tropical
Africa." The other lectures will
be: Robert Davis on November 14:
"Iceland, Capri of the North;"
Earl Brink on December 12: "Ta-
hiti;" and Francis Line, '28, on
January 9: "The Road to Gran-
deur-Mexico Through The Cana-
dian Rockies."
Carl Robinson on February 13:
"Brazil;" and Gerald Hooper on
March 13: "Italy" conclude the
series.

The first Dymaxion dome made
its appearance on campus yester-
day afternoon.
Employing the theory of F.
Buckminster Fuller which at-
tempts to= derive the maximum
benefits from a minimum quantity
of materials and energy, the dome
made completely of waterproof
cardboard and plastic was set up
in the courtyard of the College of
Architecture and Design.
* * *
SENIOR design students work-
ing under Fuller designed, organ-
ized and executed the plans.
Starting last Monday the group,
working in nearly twenty-four
hour cycles was able to complete
a test assembly Thursday after-
noon.
The shelter has been created
for test use in a summer camp.
It is a three-quarters sphere,
nine feet high. Weighing 60
pounds, materials for the en-
tire project totalled $90.
Windows at tip-tilt angles to
conform with the contours of the
structure are made of heavy plas-
tic, and seams of the dome are
covered with rayon tape.
FULLER, who has been working
with the Marine Corps on a plan
to air-lift pre-assembled dome
shelters to battle zones has point-
ed to the use of such structures as
a solution to survival problems in
the picture.
Backed by years of testing and
experiments, he feels that in
the event of an H-Bomb ex-
plosion these structures will be
able to withstand far greater
shocks than the ordinary build-
ing and will be able to survive a

relatively short distance from
Target Zero.
The reason for this, he explained
is that the rounded contours of
his building form more nearly fol-
low the shock lines of the explos-
ion.
The New York architect also ex-
plained that the economy of these
structures and the assembling ef-
ficiency make them very adaptable
for rapid mass production. '
French Club
To Give Play
"Ces Dames Aux Chapeaux
Verts," a modern French comedy
by Albert Acremant, will be pre-
sented on Wednesday as the an-
nual play production of Le Cercle
Francais.
Prof. Charles E. Koella, of the
romance languages dept., is the
director of the play. An all stud-
ent cast, composed of french club
members, will speak entirely in
French.
The plot of the play centers
around a family of old maids,
whose regulated life is disturbed
by the sudden intrusion of Ar-
lette, an 18 year old orphaned
niece.
The cast will include Marie Lue
Condon, '57, Arthur White, '54,
William Baird, Gay Duerson, '56,
Lois Bietsky, '56, Marjorie Green-
field, '56, Clinton Hanover, '57,
Marguerite Goebel, '57, John Mc-
Carus and Elizabeth Beckwith, '54.
'Veranda' Gives
Final Showing
Today will mark the last per-
formance of Eugene Hochman's
Hopwood Award winning play
"Veranda on the Highway."
The performance begins at 8
p.m. in' Lydia Mendelssohn Thea-
tre, and tickets are still available
at the League box office.
The scene of the play is France
after the second World War, and
the story centers around the con-
flicts of a young Frenchman who
had been an underground leader.
