BY GENE HARTWIG
Daily Managing Editor
ON THE FRONT PAGE of today's Daily you will
see the first in a series of articles telling the
story behind dismissals of Prof. Mark Nickerson
and H. Chandler Davis and the reinstatement of
Prof. Clement L. Markert late this summer. The
articles are drawn from letters, reports and docu-
ments made available to The Daily by the three
men.
The reasons for printingg a fully-documented ac-
count of the cases are obvious. In the coming weeks
and months, conversations, arguments, debates and
deliberations of at least one University body will
be concerned with issues raised by the cases. It is
essential to intelligent discussion, therefore, that
all the facts be made available.
Any frank discussion of the cases is bound to
evoke very serious questions, questions which must
be honestly answered by University, school and de-
partmental authorities if confidence in the admin-
istration's integrity in handling such cases is to
be maintained.
It should be asked in what respects the cases of
Markert and Nickerson differed so as to warrant
reinstatement for the one and dismissal for the
sther.
Questions are particularly in order in the Nick-
erson case where the same evidence produced a
unanimous decision for the pharmacologist's dis-
missal from the Medical School Executive Com-
mittee and a three-to-two split decision favoring
reinstatement from the President's Special Ad-
visory Committee.
It was the Medical School's decision which pro-
duced the dilemma of how Nickerson could be re-
instated when he apparently was not wanted by
his own faculty. In deciding for dismissal the ad-
xminiftration chose the practical solution disregard-
ing the verdicts of the faculty committees estab-
lished to study the case. The administration's de-
cision becomes then a political one rather than one
based on Nickersons' competency to hold a position
on the faculty with a past record of communist
activity. Questions as to precisely what factors de-
termined the Medical School's recommendation for
dismissal will very properly arise and will have to
be answered by the Medical School.
Final decision in the Davis case must also be
recognized as a politically expedient one. Again
the real issue was lost sight of-the academic
competency of Davis himself. Yet the fact can-
not be overlooked that Davis' refusal to cooper-
ate or answer questions put to him by duly con-
stituted faculty committees left the administra-
tion little choice but to adopt the practical course
and recommend dismissal. Aside from the legal
aspects of his pending contempt citation, Davis'
case raises few questions and is for all practi-
cal purposes a closed issue.
The Markert case also raises few questions ex-
cept as to how it differed from the Nickerson case.
Concern now must be that Markert continues to
receive just treatment from University and de-
partmental authorities.
In the debate about to begin on this most un-
fortunate event in the recent history of the Uni-
versity, embarrassing questions are bound to be
asked. The integrity and good faith of the Univer-
sity are bound up in the candor with which these
questions will be answered by the persons involved.

Daily Editorial Director
GREETINGS to all of The Daily's old friends,
welcome back to sunny Ann Arbor. A special
welcome to all new readers.
The Daily, which enters its 65th consecutive
year of publication with this issue, is a news-
paper with proud traditions. One of the most
important of these traditions Is The Daily's
editorial policy. This editorial policy is simple
and unique. It is a policy of "no policy."
As a small notice at the bottom of each day's
editorial page proclaims, "Editorials printed in the
Michigan Daily are written by members of The
Daily staff and represent the views of the writer
only." Any member of The Daily staff is free to
express his personal views on this page in a signed
editorial. There are no unsigned editorials. Over
the years, this policy has allowed The Daily to
present many different shades of opinion on many
important issues. We believe this policy of indi-
vidual expression has worked, and will continue to
work for the benefit of our readers.
Occasionally, when issues arise of great import-
ance to the campus community, an editorial sign-
ed jointly by the six senior editors will appear on
Page One. Such unanimous expressions of opinion
by the senior editors are the closest The Daily ever
comes to taking an editorial position as a news-
paper.
Adding to the diversity of opinion on the edi-
torial page is the Letters to the Editor column.
If you feel strongly about something of cam-
pus interest, or just feel like sharing some per-
tinent observations with the rest of our readers,
your Letter to the Editor is invited. For the bene-
fit of our hard-working linotype operators, we
ask that all letters be typed legibly and double-
spaced. Space limitations prevent our printing
letters more than 300 words In length, so if you
go over the limit we may chop down your letter
to fit. Mail your letters or bring them around
to the second floor, Student Publications Bldg.
No boxtops needed.
In addition toeditorials and letters, here are
some of the features the editorial page has for
you this year:
Nationally syndicated columns by Drew Pear-
son and Walter Lippmann.
Guest articles by faculty members and other ex-
perts.
Reviews of movies, plays, concerts, operettas, art
exhibits, magazines and books.
Cartoons by Pulitzer Prize winner Herblock and
by campus artists.
And that perennial favorite, the Daily Official
Bulletin (in special small type so we can get
more on the page for your reading enjoyment.)
We hope you'll find that along with a hearty
breakfast, reading The Daily editorial page, and
the rest of the paper, is a good way to start off
the morning.
Editorials printed in the Michigan Daily are
written by members of The Daily staff and rep-
resent the views of the writer only. This must be
noted In all reprints.

RESPONSIBILITY FOR MAINTAINING
STANDARDS OF CONDUCT
Student organizations are expected to
take all reasonable measures to pro-
mote among their members conduct
consistent with good taste and to en-
deavor by all reasonable means to en-
sure conformity with the foregoing
standards of conduct.
University students or or student or-
ganizations are responsible for their
guests' compliance with the standards
of conduct.
Any student-sponsored function at
which conditions arise that are injur-
ious to the prestige of the University
may be abolished by the Committee on
Student Affairs. (Regents' Proceedings,
May, 1923.)
It is the joint responsibility of the
chaperones and the president of the
organization sponsoring a social event
to see that University regulations are
observed, particularly those relating to
conduct, presence of women guests, and
use of intoxicants. (Committee on Stu-
dent Affairs, November 13, 1946.)
PENALTIES
Except as otherwise provided, penal-
ties for violation of standards of con-
duct may be in the form of expulsion,
suspension, probation, withdrawal of

may be deemed proper in a particular!
case. Failure to comply with the dis-
ciplinary order of any disciplinary au-
thority shall result in suspension until
compliance. (Regents' Bylaws, Sec.
8.14).
EXPULSION OR SUSPENSION
Attendance at the University of
Michigan is a privilege and not a right.
In order to safeguard its ideals of
scholarship and character, the Univer-
sity reserves the right, and the stu-
dent concedes to the University the
right, to require the withdrawal of any
student at any time for any reason suf-
ficient to t. ______

Where a substantial saving in trans-
portation costs can be realized by a
studentin transporting himself and
his belongings to Ann Arbor by auto-
mobile, a student whose home is be-
yond a radius of 175 miles from the city
of Ann Arbor will be permitted to
drive to the University. Once he has
arrived in the city of Ann Arbor, he
must place his automobile in storage
or park it somewhere off the city
streets and away from the campus area.
Unless he can make such arrangements
for storing or parking his automobile,
the student will not be permitted to
maintain his automobile in Ann Arbor.
All information related to the automo-
bile, the fact of its presence in the Ann
Arbor area, together with the address
of the place of storage (or parking
area) must be filed with the Office of
Student Affrairs. Thereafter, the auto-
mobile may be driven legitimately only
during those periods when driving re-
strictions are lifted, as announced in
the "Daily Official Bulletin."
Before permission to drive is granted,
each student, including those who ars
in an "exempt" category, must furnish
the following information:
1. State License-plate number.
2. Driver's License number.
3. Evidence of Public Liability and
Property Damage Insurance on his au-
tomobile :
(a) Name of the Insurance Com-
pany.
(b) Policy Number.
(c) Expiration date of Policy.

Garg Rears
Its Ugly
Head.
I never knew Inez Pilk, not real-
ly, but I have met many of those
that did know her. They all speak
of themselves as "friends." Inez
had only friends. These friends feel
both an obligation and a desire to
honor her in some special way,
something quite different from the
efficient, almost cold statement of
her death last summer. They would
like to honor her in a way that
would lead us to forget that no-
tice; lead us perhaps to forget the
physical loss of so many really
fine people and remember that
some of them will, like Miss Pilk
continue to live because there are
those who will not forget. It is in
the September issue 'of Gargoyle
that we see some of the evidence
of this continuing devotion to one
who is no longer with us-and it
is to some extent my problem to
judge to what extent the contents
of this magazine do justice to the
memory of Miss Pilk.
Good Nudes?
It is, therefore, difficult to see
how a story entitled "All the Nudes
that's Fit to Print" could adequate-
ly express what most of us feel
about Miss Pilk. It is only when we
notice that this story is by Jan
Malcolmhthat wetrealize that it
MUST in some way (hardly to be
understood by one who did not
know Miss Pilk personally) be fit-
ting tribute to her. The carefree
youths in the illustration surely
remind us of that time at the turn
of the century when both Inez and
the world were young. "The Bob-
sey Twins at Place Pigalle" also
by Jan Malcolm is more than just
clever take-off on the world's om-
niscient detectives. The story has
a stylistic consistency that the
youthful Inez Pilk would have en-
joyed wading through. The illus-
trations are by L. H. Scott. The
"Cow College" article was con-
fusing since Inez was not a mere
academician and she never com-
pleted her veterinary training. This
article is also by Mrs. Malcolm
and again the illustrations are by
L. H. Scott. (This issue is filled
with Mr. Scott's excellent art work
but in a challenging special fea-
ture "How to Draw Good, Lesson
1-How to Draw Animals Good"
John Appel shows how you too can!
eventually draw pictures good).
It's a Story
In "Zorch," Don Malcolm has!
done something that GARGOYLE
fans may find troublesome. He has
written a story. Come now, Mr.
Malcolm, Miss Pilk would never
have attempted something like
that. She was well aware that the
world is too coiplicated to be ex-
pressed in "stories." All Miss Pilk
asked was a chance to do good in
the "real" world.
Other unforgettable offerings are
the ever popular "Lit School An-
nouncement" and Dave Kessel's
"penetrating social satire" about
people you all know entitled "The
Silver Whistle."
To do the crossword puzzle you
will need skill and endurance. But:
Miss Pilk never gave up. The puz-
zle may lead you to compromise
with some of your most cherished!
definitions but stick to it and you
too will prevail.

National Student Congress
Report on Desegregation

(Editor's Note: In a move originat-
ing within the Virginia-Carolina dele-
gation at the Seventh National Stu-
dent Congress at Iowa State College
this summer, a special committee was
set up to propose concrete sugges-
tions for carrying out the recent
Supreme Court ruling on segrega-
tion in sourthern schools. The fol-
lowing is the text of the committee
report adopted by a vote of 283 to
four by the Congress.) '
A.
SEGREGATION in education by
race is unethical and unwise.
It is now also unconstitutional.
The USNSA, pledged to seeking
the elimination of such segrega-
tion, urges the swiftest possible in-
tegration of the races at all educa-
tional levels, in all parts of the
country. In the face of ethical con-
cepts, legal requirements, and glo-
bal ramifications, there can be no
justification for delay in the im-
plementation of the Supreme
Court decision.
Groups thrown unwillingly to-
gether may well, at first, find un-
pleasant incidents unavoidable,
and unavoidable tensions unpleas-
ant; but it is the teaching of ex-
perience and morality that long-
standing hostilities and misunder-
standings are best dissipated, in
time, by just such integration.
The areas to be desegregated con-
tain a wide variety of historic,
economic and ethnic patterns, and
within these areas the impact of
integration will vary accordingly.
We recognize that prejudice
is a persuasive antagonist
where there are economic priva-
tions, ignorance, cultural dis-
parities, and conspicuous physi-
cal dissimilarities; that family
attitudes and ancient communi-
ty justifications can easily over-
whelm the color-less brotherli-
ness which is the instince and
should be the heritage of all
children; and that racial ten-
sions tend to increase as the
percentage of the minority
group to the whole increases.
Thus, historic and community
factors in some parts of the South
have produced racial attitudes of
long duration which include among
a vast majority of the white popu-
lation an enthusiasm for separa-
tion by race which is equalled in
passion only by the resentment1
felt by Negroes who have suffered
the humiliation and loss of oppor-
tunity which such segregation en-
tails. Where these passions are
highest the transition will be
hardest and the need for patience
and good will greatest.
B.
WITH APPRECIATION of the
complexity of the transition
now at hand, with concern for the
dislocations and turmoil which
must be met with courage and
sense, and with enthusiasm to use
the opportunity whose challenge
and promise is of a finer America
in a richer future, we suggest the!
following principles as guides to
aid in the achievement of the
aforementioned objectives: th
In College
The immediate end of segrega-
tion in institutions of higher edu-
cation in all geographic areas.
In Border States
The immediate desegregation of
all units of public education in
those states in which the cultur-
al pattern, distribution of popula-
tion, racial attitudes and other
conditions warrant. Such a policy
would result in the total desegre-
gation of education in Maryland,
Delaware, the District of Colum-
bia, Kentucky, Missouri, Okla-
homa and West Virginia (the so-
called border state areas).
In Deep South
Application of the principle of
selective desegregation on a unit-
school and grade basis, in those
states in which existing racial at-
titudes are more sharply defined,

the proportion of Negroes to
whites greater, and the cultural
patterns less flexible.
1. In those school districts which
contain less than one-fifth Negro
school population in relation to
the total school population, im-
mediate, complete integration of
the school system should occur.
2. In those school districts con-
taining one-fifth to one-third
Negro school population, segrega-
tion should be immediately abol-
ished in the elementary and de-
segregation continued, progressing
through the secondary schools
year by year.
3. In those school districts in
which the Negro school population
exceeds one-third of the total
school population, desegregation
should start with the first two
grades and proceed one grade per
year.
Generally, this would mean that
in the so-called "middle South"
(Arkansas, North Carolina, Vir-
ginia, Florida, Tennessee and
Texas), desegregation would be ac-
complished by beginning with the
elementary school as a unit and
continuing as the students pro-
oe +C hrmigh +he ,czannrinorv

Other Areas
Utilization of the great opportu-
nities available in tangential as-
pects of education to assist in fa-
cilitating the change: e.g., unseg-
regated meetings of church Sun-
day schools; the instilling of data
in academic courses showing the
equality of the races, their cultur-
al contributions, the facts relat-
ing to their historical develop-
ment; and a broad program of hu-
man relations conducted in schools
and churches, and through private
voluntary groups.
Negro Teachers k
The integration of teachers at a
rate parallel with students and the
exercise by school boards and ad-
ministrative officials of an atti-
tude of fairness in assigning posi-
tions. We note that if such atti-
tudes were tobe adopted more
generally by school boards in the
North, the problem of finding em-
ployment for large numbers of
Negro school teachers would be
eased.
C.
These principles in no way im-
ply opposition to more rapid pat-
terns of desegregation in any areas
in which by general consent of the
community more rapid action is
desired.
Nor by giving special considera-
tion to the problems of the South
do we mean to suggest that this is
the only area or the Negro the
only minority group affected by
these problems. We recognize, for
instance, that in the North and
other sections of the country, both
quasi-legal and social means have
been used to provent minority
groups from being fully integrated
into the schools. It is especially
deplorable that these conditions
should exist in areas where separa-
tion by race has been neither re-
quired nor sanctoned by the law.
Marshalling public opinion is 'of
extreme importance in gaining gen-
eral acceptance of desegregation;
that is, wide use would be made
of the Supreme Court decision as
a canopy under which churches,
social workers, clubs, business, civ-
ic and professional groups, labor
organizations and students can in-
dicate their acceptance of the
change in positive social terms.
D.
The Congress further urges on
its constituent parts:
National
The Educational Affairs Vice-
President shall collect and dis-
seminate to member schools in-
formation on the progress of in
tegration.
The Educational Affairs Vice-
President shall make a general re-
port to the Eighth National Stu-
dent Congress, outlining progress
made in this field during the 1954-
55 school year.
Regional
We recommend that each re-
gion of USNSA act as a coordinat-
ing agency within its own territory
for the purpose of holding discus-
sions and exchanging information.
Campus
Although we realize that each
campus is unique and thus must
deal with its own problems unique-
ly, the USNSA strongly urges that
within their own frame-work non-
integrated member schools:
1. Form groups of interested
students, faculty and administra-
tion to give concerted attention to
integration.
2. Encourage interested student
groups to work with interested civ-
ic groups.
3. Bring together representa-
tives of groups which are to be de-
segregated for the purpose of dis-
cussing common problems.
4. In member teachers' colleges
and in education courses in all
member schools seek to help pre-
part prospective teachers to teach
as members of mixed faculties in
unsegregated classrooms.
5. Promote similar attitudes to-

ward integration on secondary lev-
els through college leadership and
personal contact with high school
student leaders.
6. Consider the following actions
as steps toward desegregation:
a. Unsegregated audience par-
ticipation in cultural programs.
b. Debates, discussions, and
athletic contests with uninte-
grated colleges of other races
and with integrated colleges.
