Salk Method Evaluation, To Continue Over 1,800,000 school children in the first three grades have parti- cipated in the nation-wide Salk vaccine evaluation study now be- ing conducted. The center of operations is the Poliomyelitis Vaccine Evaluation Center here, which the National Foundation for Infantile Paralysis helped set up last January with a $40,000 grant. Under the direction of Dr. Thomas Francis, Jr., chairman of the Department of Epidemiology, the program includes a complex statistical analysis. During its peak period at the beginning of August, 117 students were employ- ed in editing and coding records. It is estimated that 150,000 workers were employed in the field administering tests and pre- paring records. The participants have been taken from 220 sample areas and cover 44 states. The National Foundation for Infantile Paralysis granted $850,- 000 for the Salk vaccine evalua- tion program, one of the largest grants ever given by the Founda- tion for a project to take place in a single year. According to Dr. Francis, re- sults will not be available until sometime after April. At the pres- ent time program workers are in the process of examining the re- ports of polio cases among parti- cipants and their families.

New Architecture Magazine Will Commence Publication Religious Poll Results Told By Lane Hall Representing one-ninth of the student population, Catholics are again the largest single religious group on campus with 2,384 mem- bers according to the annual re- ligious census compiled by Lane Hall. A total of 16,651 students out of the 18,000 enrollment filed their denomination on registration "rail- road tickets" showing a represen- tation of 58 religious groups. Per- sons having no preference totaled 2,800 while agnostics and Panthe- ists numbered less than ten each. Second largest group was Jews with 2,005 members, an increase of 52 over last year. Next are Me- thodists with 1,937, Presbyterians with 1,807, Episcopalians with 1,- 234 and Lutherans with 1,077. All top six church groups show- ed increases over last year's mark except Episcopalians who dropped one. Problems of enlarging church seating capacity have followed the record enrollment. Other large campus groups in- clude Baptists, Congregationalists, and Protestants with smaller de- nominations Census statistics revealed sev- eral little-known religious groups. Although Druids listed in previous years are no longer on campus, small numbers of Armenian Apos- tolic, Bahai, Berian, Ethical Cul- ture, Gregorian, Holy Roller, and Huguenot religions are represent- ed.

Ryan Heads Local Housing Crackdown (Continued from Page 1) Correct Existing Conditions "We're not in business to prose- cute," noted Ryan. "We just want to correct existing conditions." However, if landlords refuse to co- operate, penalties up to $500 and/or 10 days in jail for each day the violation continues may result from court action. Ann Arbor's new building depart- ment organization was approved by the common council last April, and went into effect in July. Before then, a building inspec- tor, working under an Ann Arbor building code, had operated with the Engineering office. Five Inspectors Now headed by Ryan, the new department has five inspectors and operates under a code issued by the Building Officials Conference of America. "The BOCA code is one of four nationally recognized codes," said Ryan. "It's the only code that covers performance as well as spec- ifications." To supplement its building code, Ann Arbor uses a housing code passed by the state in 1917.

Calenders Ready Union-League calendars are now e By DAVID LEVY "In this election year, with a two or three margin either way in the senate chamber and every seat a crucial factor, the recently va- cated Nevada senatorship is a cru- cial factor," commented Prof. George A. Peek of the Political Science Department. The fwo year unexpired term of the late Senator Pat McCarran (D-Nev:), is being heatedly con- tested. Republicans late Wednes- day won a permanent injunction from District Judge A. J. Maes- tretti against a November elec- tion to fill that position after a three hour court battle. Republican Nevada Governor Charles Russell had alfeady ap- pointed Reno Attorney Ernest Brown to fill out the unexpired term when the court hearing oc- curred. Prof. Peek further commented, "Although the election law is not precisely clear, perhaps even ob- scure, reasonable men disagree as to the Nevada court decision. } Peek Comments on Nevada Elections "Student Publication: Architec- ture and Design," is the latest news in campus magazines. In the discussion stage for over a year, the student-planned mag- azine has now reached the posi- tion of an organized publication. It will be an independent project, set up by the students of the School of Architecture and De- sign as a vehicle for their inter- ests and activities. The new magazine is also vis- ualized as a connection between alumni and present and potential students of the School, as well as between students of other col- Stiidents Will Tell Scholarship Story Four University students will tell the story of the Evans' schol- arship, a tribute to amateur sports and higher education, on "Michi- gan Report," at 5:45 p.m. tomor- row over WWJ-TV, Detroit. Jim Dygert, '56BAd, Robert Mc- Masters, '56BAd, John Schubeck, '57 and Roland Zangoli, '55, all former golf caddies, will be fea- tured on the program. leges. It is hoped that the maga- zine will bring other fields togeth- er, and clarify the efforts of the School. In addition to publishing two issues a year, the publication plans to sponsor panels and invite guest speakers. Jose Teran, '56, and Carolyn McKechnie, '55, will be co-editors for the coming year. The position of circulation manager will be filled by Ken Kaji, '56, and Rob- ert Stevens, '56, will be business manager. On a financial basis, the publi- cation will be sponsored entirely by subscriptions. Student subscrip- tions will be two dollars a year. Patron subscriptions from faculty and state architects will be the main financial backing.
