Aid Planned
For Children
Of Faculties
Children of the faculties of over
73 of the nation's colleges and uni-
versities will be able to attend col-
lege tuition free under a tuition-
exchange program to be financed
by the Ford-sponsored Fund for
the Advancement of Education.
The $100,000 grant to enable a
faculty child from any member
college to attend any other school
in the pool was announced today
by President James P. Baxter of
Williams College, which will act
as fiscal agent for the first year's
operations. The new corporation
will be known as the Faculty Chil-
dren's Tuition Exchange.
* * *
THE UNIVERSITY has not
joined the group, which is com-
prised mainly of private institu-
tions. Children of the faculty en-
roll in the regular manner here.
According to Dean Charles E.
Odegaard of the literary college,
there would be no need for such
a plan at the University. It is
mainly the high tuition schools
that have instituted it, he pointed
out.
Tuition free exchange will be
recorded upon the books of the
Exchange as debits and credits in
semester units, instead of dollars.

WHILE military demonstrations
and parades were held
throughout the world in many
Communist countries, Ann Arbor
youngsters celebrated a placid
May Day temptingly near the
League fountain.
A four engine bomber was un-
veiled in Moscow and orators were
heard in East Berlin. In Tokyo,
400,000 Japanese carried banners
through the streets and Mae Tse-

tung made a public appearance to
watch marchers stream through
Tiemanmen Square. The small
Communist party in Britain held
rallies in Trafalgar Square and
Hyde Park.
Ann Arbor police reported the
usual Saturday happenings, cover-
ing "a multitude of sins": an ex-
cess of traffic around Hill Audi-
torium, barking dogs, bites, prowl-
ers, a raccoon in a tree-and no
Arboretum trouble.

Students Given
Foreign Study
'Opportunities
By LOUSE TYOR
Study opportunities for the jun-1
ior and graduate years in Den-
mark, France, Germany, Italy,
Mexico, Peru, Spain, Sweden and
Switzerland are now being offered
to American college students.
The junior year abroad plan
enables the student to acquire a
mastery of another language, be-
come familiar with the culture of
another people and learn about
another country by living there,
in addition to earning credit to-
ward a bachelor's degree from his
own college in the United States.
ONE OF THE most popular pro-'
grams is that sponsored by Smith
College, which places students inI
Paris, Geneva, Florence and Ma-
drid. Both men and women mayC
apply for the Spanish and Italian
groups.
A year in Munich is sponsored
by Wayne University, while Mex-
ico City College offers a junior
year program for Americans, as
well as a four-year program and
graduate courses. This college
was founded to provide an op-
portunity for American students
to study in Mexico under Ameri-
can college methods and stan-
dards.

team that stood fourth at the half-
way mark.
* *~ *
A TEAM-of-four consists of two
pairs, one which plays East-West
throughout the tournament the
other pair playing North-South.
Each hand that is played is a
match in itself between the two
teams that are playing the hand.
For example, if a certain hand
is played, say at table 1, the North-
South pair will be pair number 1,
playing the hand against, say pair
2.
Later during the tournament
that same hand will be played at
table 2 where the North-South
pair is pair 2, and the movement
of players and hands is so ar-
ranged that the East-West pair
which plays that hand at table 2
is the East-West pair of team
which plays that hand at table 2
is the East-West pair of team 1.
Thus a direct comparison of
how the two teams bid, play and
defend that hand can be deter-
mined. Whichever of the two
teams scores the more points wins
that hand. If the total score at
both plays is the same the hand is
a tie. A team gets 1, ;/2, or 0 points
on each hand, depending on whe-
ther it wins, ties or loses that hand.
At the end of the tournament the
kteam with greatest nuainber of
these 'points' wins.
WHILE ONE is always reluctant
to admit that one's victories are
based on anything but skill, it is
true that no victory can be at-
tained without an occasional smile
from Lady Luck. This hand from

the team game is an example of
how it is sometimes fortunate to
play some hands against strong
teams,
West, who is a member of last
year's world championship team,
quite reasonably was unwilling to
let South play the hand in the 2
club contract, since he did not
know spades was a superior con-
tract. From this point on the bid-
ding was strictly competitive, each
side unwilling to sell the contract
at a low level.
Recognizing that his side would
be able to make 3 spades for a
plus score of 140 (90 for 3 spades
and 50 points bonus which is given
in duplicate play for fulfilling a'
part score contract) South knew
that if West was down one vulner-
able his side would regain only 100
points, and still would lose the
hand.
With an almost certain diamond
trick, South felt the double would
be successful, which it was, as
the defense won 2 clubs, one dia-
mond and one spade trick.
This gave North-South plus 200
points to offset the 140 which the
opponents North-South pair made
from their 3 spade contract. The
point of good fortune here being
that a weaker player in the West
position might not have ventured
the 2 diamond call.
