4. THE MICHIGAN DAILY THURSDAY, FEBRUARY 25, 1954 _ _ _ . _ _ e,__ . ., . ,,,, SL Cinema Guild Shares Half Profits Allocation of. the half-dollars which week-end movie goers pay at the Cinema Guild box office and supervision of the behind-the- scenes operations before a movie gets to the screen are the chief responsibilities of the Student Leg- islature-Cinema Guild Board. The Cinema Guild, a service pro- ject which was taken over by SL in the spring of 1950 when the Arts Cinema League folded, serves a dual function. It brings back old movies which the board feels are of interest to local movie goers and it provides a source of funds for student organizations. * * * THE seven-member student Cin- ema Guild Board, which is ap- pointed by SL, reviews the peti- tions of student organizations which want to sponsor movies, se- Student organizations wishing to sponsor Cinema Guild movies after March 7 may pick up peti- tions at the Student Legislature Bldg. Petitions are aue at 5 p.m. to- morrow. lects the movies that will be shown and lays down basic Cinema Guild p$olicy. It also appoints a student manager who carries out board de-, cisons and keeps it informed on what movies are available. Student sponsors are chosen on the basis of three criteria: )1 The degree to which the activities aided by Cinema Guild funds "affect the entire student body or useful and charitable purposes." 2) Their relative need of funds. 3) The past record of the or- ganization in similar undertak- ings and the degree of respon- sibility shown in handling funds and promoting events. A new policy for the distribu- tion of Cinema Guild profits was set up by the board last semester. Its chief purpose, according to Dave Gross, '56, chairman, was to build up the Guild's insurance fund. German Films T Be Shown Two German films will be fea- tured at the International Center Sunday at 7:30 p.m. The two movies, which will be shown free of charge to the public, are "Where Did the Dollars Go?" and "Krone Frpnkens."

The meeting is open to the pub- lic. PURCHASE from "PURCHASE" VISITING PROF: Groups Hear Chalmers' Discussion of Religion 4 By CAROL NORTH Bringing a new approach to Boston University School of The- campus on theories of religion as ology. - Activi ties Pressed, for Space applied to social situations, Prof. Allan Knight Chalmers has spent the past eight days meeting for in- formal discussions with groups in classrooms and dormitories. Raised in Saginaw, Mich., Chal- mers is now a professor of Preach- ing and Applied Christianity at the Tra]vis Talks On Business Citing .the bank crash of 1929 as an example, Noble D. Travis, vice-president of the Michigan Trust Co., yesterday explained that no business can be successfully run for a long period of time without good personal relations with the public. Speaking at a Public Relations Forum sponsored by the School of Business Administration, Travis stated that if the public had been given the opportunity to know and trust the banking system, the run on the banks could almost certain- ly have been averted. Telling the necessi y of good public relations to the success of a large corporation, Fred Black, director of public relations for Nash-Kelvinator Corp., stated that most large companies today rea- lize the important of being "good neighbors" to the public. Funeral Set For 1McDonald Funeral services will be held at 3 p.m. tomorrow in Muehlig's Chapel at 403 S. Fourth for Mil- dred I. McDonald who died at her home yesterday. Dr. Edwin C. Ganzhorn, local coroner, termed Mrs. McDonald's death suicide as the result of an overdose of sleeping pills. She was employed as administrative as- sistant to Dean of Women Debor- ah Bacon. Before her employment in the Dean's office, Mrs. McDonald .was secretary to University Provost James P. Adams. She was first em- ployed by the University in 1931. Her husband died in 1930. Sur- vivors ihclude her mother, Mrs. Robert Shankland of Ann Arbor; a sister, Miss Leah M. Shankland of Lansing and a brother, Robert B. Shankland of Valparaiso, Ind. Military Governor To Speak Today Colonel Basil Herman, Military Governor of the Negev of the State of Israel and Senior Israel Delegate to the Israel-Egypt Armistice Com- mission under United Nations aus- pices will address the Thursday Luncheon Club at noon tomorrow in the Methodist Church. Dahlberg To Talk At Kellogg Today Dr. Albert A. Dahlberg of Chi- cago will speak at 3:30 p.m. today in Kellogg Auditorium on "Con- cepts and Interpretations of Tooth Morphology Which are Basic for the Understanding Dentician." The meeting is open to the pub- lic.. TERMING himself a "trouble shooter," Chalmers described his work as traveling to different parts of the country straightening out problems in racial and religious discrimination. He and his asso- ciates often move into a com- munity and work on not only dis- crimination cases, but also ,on problems in juvenile delinquency, he explained. He says that in most commu- nities where this work is done, there is a 72 per cent decrease in criminal activities. Chalmers' trouble-shooting has carried him over thousands of miles, in this country and abroad. He spent eighteen years in New York's "Hell's Kitchen" and re- cently saved an innocent boy from execution. Besides these activities, Chal- mers is treasurer of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, and also serves on the NAACP's "Committee of a Hundred," which raises money to rectify injustices in cases through- out the country. A graduate of Johns Hopkins University, Chalmers' ninth book will be released soon. Wernette Sees U.S. Economic 'System Sound Prof. J. Phillip Wernette of the business administration school dis- cussed, "What Future Economic Progress Means to You" yesterday in the first speech assembly of the semester. The present pessimism about the future of ~our country is too over- played, he said. Inflation, deflation and depres- sion, excessive taxation, decline of the spirit of enterprise, war and a possible moral and spiritual de- cline were cited by the professor as the chief menaces to American economic progress. Fries To Discuss Linguistics Today "Linguistics and Literary Criti- cism" will be discussed by Prof. Charles C. Fries of the English de- partment, at a joint meeting of the English Journal and Linguistics Clubs at 8 p.m. today in Rm. 3R of the Union. The discussion Is open to 411 stu- dents and faculty inembers. Scholten To Show Film on Cameras Dudley J. Scholten, a vice-pres- ident of Argus Cameras, Inc., will spear and show a movie on the manufacturing and marketing of cameras at 4 p.m. today in Rm. 131 of the Business Administration Bldg. during a meeting of the Mar- keting Club. The meeting will be open to the public. Conference Slated Twenty-five industrial leaders will meet at 4:15 p.m. tomorrow in the Rackham Bldg. for a one-day conference sponsored by the Bur- eau of Industrial Relations. It isn't too often that one has occasion to visit a few offices and meeting rooms of student organizations, but when he does he makes some disconcerting discoveries. First of all he finds it difficult to uncover the home of a parti- cular organization or activity. And when he finally finds it, he is lucky if he can squeeze in and be noticed among the busy throng. IF HE WANTS the office of the service fraternity, Alpha Phi Omega, he asks around until he is told it is in the basement of the Student Legislature Bldg. To get to it, he must wind around corridors and struggle down narrow steps. He finds an oversized telephone booth. Doug Bailey, '56, AVO vice-president, describes the office as inadequate for administrative work and impossible for meetings. For meetings, the service fraternity obtains a room in the Union. Such a room is adequate for meeting purposes, but it is often hard to get one at an opportune time, according to Bailey. The Gilbert and Sullivan Society has no definite meeting place, but uses the League Ballroom for those meetings at which there is a large number of people and other League meeting rooms for smaller affairs. The Society's biggest headache, however, is the crowded fa- cilities it has for constructing sets in the basement of the SL Buildng. * * * * MANY OF THE organizations that use Union rooms find them inadequate. Some because of the difficulty in obtaining a meeting room when they desire one, others because their offices in the Unon are too small for the work they attempt to do. The Interfraternity Council, with offices in Rm. 3-C of the Union, is an example of an organization working undef crowded conditions. According to John Baity, '55, executive vice-president, each desk in the office is shared by three or four men. A long table that seats about 15 is used for gatherings of 25 and 30. Across the toitidor in Rm. 3-0 of the Union, the Glee Club holds its practices under conditions that hrProf. Philip Duey, director of the Glee Club, describes as unsuitable. 2 The room is such that members must sit in a wide semi-circle fac- ing the longer side with the oppo- site wall close at their'backs. This makes for poor'acoustics and diffi- culty in directing, explained Prof. Duey. Connected to this long narrow room is a tiny office where the Glee Club carries on administrative ac- tivities such as poster-making. Bob McGrath, '54SM, considers the of- fice much too small. * * * t STANDING ROOM ONLY AT IFC STAFF MEETING FOUR IFC STAFFERS PER DESK 'MUSIC STORAGE ROOM FOR THE GLEE CLUB NEXT DOOR to the Glee Club office is one of equal size used by Union Opera. For administrative purposes, it, too, is inadequate, ac- cording to Mimes president Harry Blum, '54BAd. Along the short hallway from the Union Opera office to the corridor is a door which opens to a closet used by the Glee Club for storing music. One look re- veals the tight condition espec- ially since other organizations also use it for storage. And office space is no better at the League although the facilities are an improvement because new equipment and furniture were placed in the offices after Christ- mas. One room containing two desks, one table, a few chairs, and two bulletin boards is shared by Pan- helleic Association and Assembly Association. During office hours, there is often hardly any room to move around according to Panhel President Martha Hill, '54. Many other organizations; such as Sphinx, Triangles, other honor- aries and political clubs, have no definite meeting places, but must rely on their chances of obtaining one of the Union's or League's meeting rooms when they need one. And it is often difficult to get ,one at the right time. Often an organization needs a larger room than any of these and must attempt to obtain the Union or League ballroom-not always an easy matter. A further difficulty in holding meetings in rooms other than its offices is an organization's task of carrying records and other para- phenalia to and from the meet- ings. This trouble is even more pro- nounced for those that have no office at all. Gilbert and Sullivan Society, Sphinx, and many others do not have an office. All records and papers, in these cases, are kept at the home of an officer of the organization and must be trans- ported to and from the meetings. It is not hard to imagine the ad- ministrative difficulties of these student activities. .. r - 't f NOT MUCH LEG ROOM IN THE ALPHA PHI OMEGA OFFICE Meet Michigan's Sports Heroes I DAILY PHOTO FEATURE Story by Jim Dygert Pictures by Chuck Kelsey, Don Campbell, Dick Gaskill and Betsy Smith GLEE CLUB HOLDS MEETING IN ITS OFFICE a BILL MACFARLAND . . . sensational icer RAY FISHER ... baseball coach-of-year JACK CARROLL ...
