FRmAF,. OCTOBER 15, 1954 T--U-- MCSIGAN DAILY PAGE THR19 FRIDAY, OCTOBER 15. 1954 TIlE MICHIGAN DAILY PAGE THRI v ELIMINATION PROPOSED: Bias Clauses Discussed at Colorado (4 By HARRY STRAUSS v' A University of Colorado Regent has proposed a motion to 'end all fraternity and sorority discrimina- tion there by 1960. The motion, which will be acted upon next week in Boulder, Colo., has already raised protests from students, social organizations and regent members alike. Plan Outlined Basis of the plan as formulated by Regent Vance Austin is that: "No new organization with. char- ter p r o v i s io n s discriminating against candidates because of race, creed or color shall be approved by this University." Any existing organizations, the resolution continues, who have such provisions can remain in good standing only if they make a "de- termined effort . . . to secare amendments to their respective constitutions." Under this provision, the organi- zation may eliminate restrictions gradually as long as they are com- pletely eliminated by 1960. Deadline "No such organization which has in its national or local constitution or pledge instructions a discrim- inatory clause, shall be approved by the University after July 1960." The last part of the resolution's text states that this action in no way abridges an organization's "freedom to select individual mem- bers on their own individual mer- its." President Ward Darley -has set up a student-faculty committee on Student Organizations and Social Life to investigate - present "pos- sible discrimination," according to the Colorado Daily. Opposition Head Following Austin's motion most of the other regent's members voiced their approval of the idea. One regent, in complete opposi- Center Sponsors Dance Program The International Center will sponsor classes in social and Latin American dancing to be taught by students from South America and lessons in numerous foreign lan- guages. An organizational meeting for the dance classes is scheduled at 7:30 p.m. Monday at the Interna- tional Center. Time of the classes and other details will be discuss- ed. Students interested in learning a foreign language may contact the International Center for ar- ranging instruction. tion stated that "no authority has a right to interfere with a group which should be allowed to choose its own social contacts." Fraternity and sorority reaction was mixed. Some refused to com- ment while others merely stated that they did or did not have- re- strictive clauses in their constitu- tions. A few of the 16 sororities and 24 fraternities agreed that while the idea for discrimination removal was good it should be done slowly by the organizations themselves. A student's letter that appeared in the Colorado Daily, in opposing the move, noted that an attempt of an Amherst College fraternity to have a Negro student in the house had "very unhappy consequences for all those concerned." 'U' Similarity Plans similar to this one have been put into effect by several schools, the University of Wiscon- s i n a n d Columbia University among them. A not very different situation exists here at the University since 19,49. At that time the Administra- tion handed down a ruling prohib- iting new organizations, or reacti- vated groups, which choose mem- bers on a basis of race, color or creed. Since that time, the Interfrater- nity Council has attempted follow- ing a policy of assisting any fra- ternity trying to abolish its consti- tutional restrictive clauses. Since the 1949 ruling, many fra- ternities have attempted to go to their national meetings and see about removing these clauses. During the last summer, two fra- ternities dropped such clauses from their constitutions, while others are expected to bring the matter up in future national meetings. Six Stations Use Kinescopes Of 'U- Educational Programs By CAROL NORTH One cf the nation's first adult- level education programs on tele- vision has been launched by the University. Although plans for a means of broadcasting directly from Ann Ar- bor are being made, the programs are now being carried over com- mercial stations. The new means of education is estimated to reach over a million viewers. Shows are carried on six stations, almost throughout the lower half of Michigan. Programs on Kinescope Stations in Detroit, Lansing, Grand Rapids, Cadillac, Ann Ar- bor and Kalamazoo now receive the kinescopes made in the Uni- versity television studio. Accord- ing to Program Production Man- ager Hazen Schumacher, this is more effective than the former method of driving into Detroit to produce live shows. In the past four years, viewers interested in registering for the courses given on TV received sup- plementary material and a certifi- cate stating their participation. This, however, did not entitle them to University credit. The practice has been discontinued this year. The first series to be offered this year will be "The Teen Ager: A Study of Adolescent Behavior," at 1 p.m. Sunday. Taught by Prof. William C. Morse of the psycholo- gy department, the lectures will deal with dating habits, personal and social adjustments, families and adolescence. Prof. James H. Zumberge of the geology department will instruct the following course on "Our Changing Earth: The eGology of Michigan." Opening with an in- troduction to the elements and compounds that make up the crust .of the earth, the lectures will de- scribe the formation of the Great Lakes and Michigan's geological history. Last in the fall series is "Plan- ning Your Financial Future." It is organized and coordinated by the School of Business Adminis- tration in cooperation with the banks and trust companies of De- troit. The course is. planned to give viewers 'practical aid in solving problems of budgets, investments, home ownership, taxes and wills. Scientific Papers 'To lie Presented Twenty scientific papers in the field of clinical medicine will be presented tomorrow at the region- al meeting of the American Feder- ation for Clinical Research in the School of Public Health Building. The organization is composed of young doctors who work in clini- cal and experimental medicine. More than 50 physicians will read papers in various fields including arteriosclerosis, diabetes and per- nicious anemia. Interviews Those interested in being in- terviewed for chairman of the Academic Freedom Sub-Com- mitte of the Culture and Edu- cation Committee of Student Legislature may contact Joan Bryan, '56, at NO 2-2591 or at the Student Legislature office in the Union before Tuesday, Oct. 19. Satiric Team To Broad-cast Tuesday nights at 10 p.m. "Bud- dha and Harv," a new weekly se- ries of satiric nonsensisms, will come over the air- via WCBN, the Campus Broadcasting Network. Originating from the radio stu- dios of South Quadrangle, the show, handled 'by Chicago-area freshmen Bob Birnbaum and Har- vey Bailey, will present interviews, discussions, playlets, and "zany" recordings. The "Harlan Katcher Record-of- the-Week," "Letters from Listen- ers," "Sports Incinerated," and a weekly "Official Buddha and Harv Contest" will be included among many special features. Listeners who wish to discuss problems' of school-life may call into the station.. The person who first identifies the Mystery Word, according to Bailey "a common everyday household word like 'Parthenon' or 'xanthrophyll" will win a valu- able prize such as a life-size pic- ture of the Waterman Gym drink- ing fountain or a pair of Bermuda shorts once worn in the Adminis- tration Building." Alpha Phi Omega Plans Blood Drive The local chapter of Alpha Phi Omega, national service fraterni- ty is awaiting approval by the Stu- dent Affairs Committee before pro- ceeding on its proposed blood drive. SAC does not meet until Octo- ber 26. Sherwin Sokolov, '56, pres- ident of the local chapter said "un- til that time we can make no defi- nite plans about the drive." Engineering Group The Michigan Regional Confer- ence of the American Foundry- man's Society, sponsored by the chemical and metallurgical engi- neering and production* engineer- ing departments, ends its annual conference today with two sessions at 9:30 a.m. and 1 p.m. in Rackham Building. EAST LANSING, (P)-Cancer of the lung can be cured, a Grand1 Rapids surgeon told the Leader- ship Training Conference for Amer-1 ican Cancer Society Volunteers yes- terday at Michigan State College. The speaker was Dr. Richard H. Meade of Grand Rapids, vice' president of the American Associ- ation of Thoracic Surgery. "Every man over 40 should have chest X-rays every six months and others at less frequent intervals," Dr. Meade said. "When lung cancer is found as the result of a routine chest X-ray, and before symptoms develop, the patient has about a 75 per cent chance of being cured," he re- ported. Dr. Clifford D. Benson of Detroit, associate professor of surgery at Wayne University Medical School, said that cancer today kills more children from three to 15 years than any other disease. "It cannot be emphasized too much that cancer in children is not always fatal," he said.

You'll find it is, quite literally, like no other car in the world-a heart-lifting blend of the true sports car with all that is best in American engineering. There is the velvet smoothness of a Powerglide automatic transmission (but with the classic floor selector-lever). The trouble-free durability of a Chev- rolet "Blue-Flame" engine (but with three side draft carburetors to unleash its flash- ing 150 horsepower). ? he ruggedness of an X-braced box girder.frame (but with the astonishing im- pact resistance of a glass-fiber-and-plastic body). Luxurious seating for driver and passen- ger in deep foam rubber (but cradled in the traditional security of bucket seats). Generous luggage room, the panoramic sweep of a deeply curved windshield, the flair of tomorrow's styling (but within the polo-pony compactness of a real road car). The Corvette blends all this and more. For it is a driver's car . . . a low-slung torpedo with a center of gravity only 18 inches above the concrete. . . with outrig- ger rear springs that make it hold to the road like a stripe of paint.., with a 16 to Make a date to drive the 1 steering ratio that puts needle-threading accuracy at your finger tips. Frankly, the Corvette is a "limited edi- tion,"' made only -in small numbers. It is intended only for the man or woman to whom driving is not just transportation but an exhilarating adventure, a sparkling chal- lenge to skill and judgment.
