Remarking on . . . young out the ato win the cove the Univers est movie director mic television program Rich said that ted he "was astounded at thehigh caliber of equipment used for the shows as well as the enthusiasm sity of the students in their work." He also commented on the re- markable work done by the staff headed by Prof. Garrison, their instruction and the service they are doing the University and the state. Part of Pressure Prof. Nickerson called the ter-" mination of such grants "another part of the pressure to get people to inform." He has heard that an individual can go to the proper authorities, "for example the Clar- dy committee," confess that he has done wrong while telling on a few other people and then get his grant back." Backing up Prof. Nickerson's charges, a professor who prefer- red to remain anonymous said "I know for a fact that some have had their grants cancelled because of political reasons. Since these grants were given on the basis of scientific merit, this is unfair." Physics department chairman Prof. Ernest F. Barker said that he had not heard of any local cases where such action has been taken. The physicist, who has served on the board of many selective com- mittees, doesn't feel that the eval- uative boards "are subject to such petty reasoning." Saying that he thinks such charges are "malicious gossip," Pointing out that in the cases of withdrawal of grants that he was familiar with there had been reasonably clear cut cases of con- flict," Prof. Henry J. Gomberg of the engineering college said he does not think that in general funds should be withheld. DAILY OFFICIAL BULLETIN U Wilkinson Luggage Shop Reminds You...

He also attended the architec- ture school shortly before the end of World War II when he was in the Reserve Officers Naval Archi- tecture Group. Asked about his father, senior partner in a large Boston law firm, Welch said that he "only talks about the cases he loses, nev- er the ones he wins." One of the many cases which the Eastern lawyer did win, ac- cording to the Associated Press, occurred shortly after he began practicing law. The opposing law- yer in that case was a senator. Boys Against Giants Counsel Welch told the jury listening to the case that this was a situation of "boys defending against giants." He continued to wring the hearts of the jurors with the assertioni that this was un- fortunate because his client had a very good case and it was too bad he couldn't afford to hire counsel worthy of it. Welch won the verdict. Another early case Welch won when he defended a violinist in a slander suit brought by a strip- teaser. Welch's only piece of pos- sible evidence was a photograph of the woman in her "working clothes." Shehdismissedhhericomplaint after he pulled the picture from his pocket and showed it to her while he was cross-examining the dancer.

We therefore believe that all its citizens should have equal opportunity to enjoy all its benefits. We believe those prac- tices (e.g. discrimination in employment and service because of race, creed, or color) that deprive some of our citizens of this opportunity, are undesirable. To eliminate some of these practices in Ann Arbor, the University of Michigan Chapter of the N.A.A.C.P. is initiating the sticker campaign that was approved by a referendum in the 1953 fall elec- tion of the Student Legislature. The purpose of the cam- paign is to translate into action those practices which logic, our philosophy, and our Constitution tell us are right. We will distribute to those merchants who do not use dis- criminatory practices in hiring or service, a sticker bearing the slogan "Fair Play the Wolverine Way." This sticker is not 4designed to encourage the non-discriminating mer- I MICHIGAN SEAL JACKETS * Navy Blue only *Light Gold z ', 'I i II 0
