I PAGE TWO THE MICHIGAN DAILY WEDNESDAY. RM Y8.1293 THE MICHIGAN DAILY WWT IJ'XrZ&AV MIAUIAA 1J 1033O m CONSTITUTIONAL ISSUE? 'U' Leaders Roused to Sound Fury by MSU Proposal DREW PEARSON: Air Base "I Don't Know, Fella - I'm A Stranger Here Myself" DAILY OFFICIAL BULLETIN SNAFU In Spai INTINT on keeping Michigan State College froin reaching up to our "level", the Uni- versity has obligingly stooped down to theirs-- and maybe lower. It took the Board of Regents over six months to take any action on the Student Government Council, for which students here campaigned actively. In very hush-hush manner, two 'U' instructors were eventually fired by the Board for "refusing to answer questions put to them by the Clardy investigating committee. However when a school in East Lansing wants to change its name to University, im- mediately and in no uncertain terms the Regents have been shouting their cause to the world. SUCH CHARGES as "they're infringing on our name" or "it's too confusing" have echoed from Ann Arbor. In recent days, even the alumni and ad- ministration have entered this sacred battle. Assistant Secretary of the Alumni Association Robert Morgan put his forces to work inform- ing University alumni that the move was "un- constitutional." (According to Morgan, since the constitution says there shall be A state university, this University has already filled that function and there can never be another.) THEN,perhaps to strengthen the argument, Morgan speaking "off the record" blasted MSC students for being childish, "wearing short pants," causing "riots" at the Rose Bowl, etc. Although admitting the statement at first, Morgan now denies ever having made it, and the University is charging that only those who want to cloud the issues of the name change are criticising it. President Hatcher also has entered the list,' saying yesterday the proposed designation of MSC as Michigan State University is "an un- fortunate infringement which the College should be as eager to avoid as the state University itself." NOW where does that put us in the eyes of others? Out in Pennsylvania at the proud Univer- sity of Pennsylvania they may be snickering a little. No one yelled when Penn State College switched to Pennsylvania State University. No one charged "infringement" and no one called the bo'ys at State childish. The fact of the matter was that Penn State had become a University and deserved the title. That is the only fact that need concern us here in Michigan, and no one denies that, Michigan State now qualifies. Confusion? There's confusion now. How to avoid confusion? Certainly not by engaging in ridiculous battles with State over its name. Penn has eliminated much confusion by making sure that no matter what Penn State does to its name, the University of Penn- sylvania will stand out as one of the nation's top schools. Why can't we do that here? MOST STUDENTS at this University have no doubt about which of the two schools are on top. Perhaps that is the reason for the mature indifference they have shown the en- tire matter. But the action by the Regents and other administrators connected with the University is lowering the name they are expected to uphold. The difference between the University of Michigan and Michigan State College (or Uni- versity) is not in the name! Let us hope it never will be. -Murry Frymer Pay Staff Assistants More.-- eron Inquiry Report YETERDAY a highly comprehensive report was issued by the Operation Inquiry com- mittee following a year's investigation and study of the residence halls system. Most of the recommendations brought forth by the committee, which was set up by the Residence Halls Board of Governors and the Inter-House Council, seem worth-while. Behind the recom- mendations are many reasons considered by the group. For instance the committee, headed by Prof. Charles T. Olmstead of the engineering col- lege, urges a raise in pay for staff assistants. Behind this recommendation lay much study by the nine-member group. In their opinion, the staff assistant, "although the lowest in rank and the least noticed and appreciated, is probably the most important member of the staff" ... His most important role is probably that of an experienced student who has been around and knows the ropes at the University . The pay of the staff assistant is pitefully inadequate. While the duties have increased considerably during the past few years, there has been a relative decrease in his pay." The group urges that his new salary scale should be made a percentage of his room and board bill so that his salary will increase propor- tionately if room and board rates rise. G OING to the top of the house staff, the Inquiry comittee said the resident adviser usually serves in the position for only one or two years. "It would seem that at least a two- year tenure would be desirable," the group's report said, "since the second year is usually more effective than the first. On the other hand, it is not necessarily the case that he should serve much more than two years." ~RITING of the associate adviser (house mother) position in the residence hall sys- tem, Inquiry said "it was the consensus of opinion of those interviewed, as well as that of the committee, that the role is vital to the success of the system if properly performed." However, the report continued, partly as a result of selection and partly as a result of long tenure, the role is not being performed as effectively as possible. "The difficulty seems to be one of maintaining the initial high stan- dards . . . Her long tenure sometimes causes her to lose the original touch and enthusiasm she had for the job . . . Part of the answer to this could be found in a periodic residence halls training program, the purpose of which would be to present and review essential tech- niques." Considering the possibility of having a married couple help supervise the house in- stead of a house mother was thought inadvis- able by the committee. "Consequently, it is felt that the present associate adviser system most competently fulfills the needs of the system." MOVING to the problem of staff selection and recruitment, the Inquiry report says "the real difficulty at present is not so much the interviewing process but rather that there is a scarcity of applicants who meet the proper standards." This situation could be improved, the committee feels, in a "well-planned, mean- ingful training program, as conducted at some other institutions," were adopted. From the standpoint of students' over-all welfare, the committee said "a staff person is as important, if not more so, as the instructors and teaching fellows of our various colleges." In addition, the committee urges a student evaluation of the staff at intervals. This would be primarily a corrective device. CLOSER co-operation should take place be- tween the educational staff of the residence halls and the colleges, the committee said. Co-operation is especially needed between the halls and the academic counselors and men- tors. "At the present time," the 23-page docu- ment states, "it is often felt by members of the staff that the review boards are readmit- ting some students to the colleges who defi- nitely should not be readmitted in the light of their conduct and motivation as observed by the staff in their house." As a resident of the residence halls living under the Michigan House Plan, the writer feels the committee's evaluations and recom- mendations of the educational staff to be valid. Presently the House Plan is working rather well, but if the Inquiry committee's recom- mendations should be adopted by the IHC and Board of Governors, it would function even better. -Joel Berger WASHINGTON - D e m o crats took a long step toward throwing away two of their chie campaign issues - "giveaways' and helping small business - when a top Democrat, Congress- man Carl Vinson of Georgia, buck. ed and bristled over giving a hear- ing to the Small Business Com- mittee regarding the sale of 11 government-owned synthetic rub- ber factories. Vinson was all set to join witl the Ikeites in handing the synthe- tic rubber factories over to the big tire and oil companies when his fellow Democrat, Wright Patman of Texas, blew the whistle. Patman, as chairman of the House Small Business Committee, had prepared a resolution with his colleague, Sid Yates of Illinois, pointing to the unfairness of the synthetic rubber giveaway. But Chairman Vinson of the Armed Services Committee didn't want to listen. He even challenged Pat- man's veracity, which to a Texan of integrity is tantamount to high treason. "Mr. Patman, we are delighted to have you here this morning," the Georgian gushed as the hear- ings opened. "Thank you, Mr. Chairman," re- plied Patman, "I shall make - -- "Wait a minute," cut in Vinson. "Before you start, for the record, I want to find out-are you speak- ing in behalf of the Small Busi- ness Committee, and by direction of that committee, or are you speaking in your individual capa- city as a member of Congress?" "My committee has had no time to call a meeting." replied Pat- man. "But I was assured by a ma- jority of members of my commit- tee that I could speak for them. In addition, I conferred with the ranking Republican member of my committee." Insulting A Texan SUGGEST that the names of the members who have auth- orized Mr. Patman to speak for them be inserted in the record," broke in Republican Congressman Bates of Massachusetts. "Don't you think that is going very far, Mr. Chairman?" inquir- ed Patman, angrily. The meeting almost blew up at this point as several members, in- cluding Democrats Paul Kilday of Texas and Mel Price of Illinois, tried to be recognized by the Chair. "We will get along very well if everbody will be quiet," thundered Vinson. "Do I understand that you are going to question the right of Mr. Patman to appear before this com- mittee?" demanded Kilday. "No, sir," sputtered Vinson. "Not at all. That wasn't even intimated by any question of mine." "I am not too sure that it was. nt," rejoined Kilday of Texas. "What was the purpose of your question about his appearing for a majority of the Small Business Committee?" "I just wanted the record to show that he is not appearing by direction of the committee, but rather in behalf of a majority of the committee," explained Vinson. "Are you going to require him to corroborate himself by placing in the record the names of Small Business Committee members he is speaking for?" insisted Kilday. "No," back tracked Vinson. Gas Station Monopolies PATMAN THEN explained how his resolution, prepared by the Small Business Committee, would stop the sale of the rubber fac- tories on March 26 as now sche- duled by Eisenhower. Supporting him, Congressman Yates present- ed a masterful report which im- pressed even hostile, committee members. Yates showed that under the Eisenhower rubber sale, 87%/2 per cent of all rubber production would be in the hands of the big four tire companies, who worked together to controf the sale of tires. Shell Oil, for instance, which takes over the government rubber factory in Los Angeles, has a con- tract with Goodyear and Firestone to sell them rubber; then Good- year and Firestone turn round and sell Shell tires. These tires are distributed to the public through Shell gasoline stations. And Congressman Yates show- ed how any Shell dealer who tries to stock any other tire competing with Goodyear or Firestone loses his Shell franchise. The Standard Oil Companies al- so have a deal with U.S. Rubber to make Atlas tires, sold exclusively through Standard Oil filling sta- Election Issues .. . To the Editor: IN THE PAST few days there has been much talk, especially in The Daily to the effect candidates for SGC were presenting no issues of importance to the voters. I think there are vital issues in this election. This letter is directed to all who had some reservation about SGC. Two of the main issues I see are the need for increasing the number of elected representatives who sit on SGC, and for writing a constitution for SGC. Perhaps the biggest objection that most people had to SGC was the constricted size of its elected membership. I for one think 11 elected representatives is nowhere near adequate to democratically represent the many views one finds on a campus this size. The main function of a constitu- tion for SGC would be to clearly define just what its jurisdiction and area of operation is. Unless a constitution is written, the Board of Review may impede any action taken by SGC, not on the basis of the merits of the issue involved, but simply on the grounds that this action was not within SGC's jurisdiction. Thus, any action of SGC the Review Board didn't like could be stopped by invoking the "jurisdiction argument." Without a constitution to clearly delineate SGC's purview, this problem will be forever present. Both an increase in the number of elected representatives and a written constitution for SGC are needed if SGC is to operate effec- tively. Paul Dormont * * ,* Arab Attacks . . To the Editor: BETWEEN September 1954 and February 1, 1955 Egypt has been condemned on 27 occasions by the Mixed Armistice Commis- sion for violationos of the Israel- Egypt Armistice Agreement. These "Occasions" include armed attack, murder and sabotage. On January 21, an Egyptian army unit drew up and started firing across the armistice line. Three days later the Egyptians were condemn- ed by the Israel-Egypt Mixed Ar- mistice Commission and a few hours after this statement the Arabs again attacked-this time from the Gaza strip into the set- tlement of Ein Hashlosha. Two men working in the fields were ambushed, one killed and the oth- er wounded. These are just a few in a procession of border incidents resulting in maim and murder. Internally, Egypt persecuted sev- eral innocent persons. As a result of "questioning" Elias Cremona, died under torture, Max Bennett committed suicide, Victorine Nino threw herself from a window dur- ing the "interrogation." The French Consul-General in Cairo attended the "trial" and reported seeing the marks of brutality on Moshe Marzouk - French citizen. Mr. Roger Baldwin, Chairman of the International League for the Rights of Man, who was in Cairo at that time said the charges of espionage and sabotage were "childish and irrational." It is probably the first time in history that seven nations march- ed against one small nation, 262 miles in length and 50 miles wide, and still went down to an ignoble defeat. Arabs started it, lost it, and to a nation the size of Connecticut. I would suggest that the next time the Arab League selects a target for its brutality it should pick on a country even smaller than Israel -if it can find one-maybe it will have better luck. -Shulamith Lakin SGC Attitudes..,. To the Editor: ONE MIGHT think from the tone and content of letters printed in The Daily Tuesday, that the vast majority of SGC candidates were completely unqualified for the office they hope to gain. It seems to be forgotten that out of forty SL members, less than nine are running for election to SGC. It may be that the other fourteen candidates are comparatively in- experienced, but it also may be that 'we have a positive attitude towards the success of SGC and the support of the faculty and ad- ministration, along with a vital interest in and desire to work for the ultimate success and power of SGC. SGC is a new organization; per- haps new attitudes towards the ability of SGC to work with the faculty and administration, and a desire to do so, wil do more than the negative, experienced attitude expressed so often. Certainly, condemning the peo- ple who have taken the initiative to run for SGC at this point will be not nearly so effective as pre- senting constructive suggestions from the basis of this experience they claim so necessary. -Lois Taterka * * * Call to Greatness .. To the Editor: DOES Mr. Holloway really believe that the West Point "code" is a lot of malarkey? Did such great men as Eisenhower, MacArthur, Bradley, etc. waste their time pat- terning their lives to this code so that we and the generations to come might enjoy the privilege of freedom? "The Long Gray Line" is one of the finest motion pictures that has come to Ann Arbor in quite some time.

No specific major . t lI I MUSIC REVIEW si / At Hill Auditorium ... BERLIN PHILHARMONIC ORCHESTRA, Herbert von Karajan, conductor. PROGRAM: Mozart, Symphony in D major, K. 385; Wagner, Prelude and Love-Death from Tristan und Isolde; Brahms, Sym- phony No. 1 in C minor. THE untimely death of the great Wilhelm Furtwangler brought to the directorship of the Berlin Philharmonic Orchestra the younger but no lesser musical personality of Herbert von Karajan. The elegant and expressive man- ner in which von Karajan handles his music, as well as his large and varied repitoire, places him with the few really great conductors of our time. The Berlin Philharmonic*has for many years been top rank, and their concept of sound never tubby or distorted. The most notable sounds come from the wind section with the brass players using smaller instruments and the reeds producing a crystaline quality of timbre. The program opened with the Mozart, which was played with a small orchestra and paced to perfection. The Wagner left the audience gasp- ing for breath. The sounds produced in the Prelude were unbelieveable, rich in quality and with a clarity similar to a fine baroque organ. The great C minor Symphony of Brahms ended the program, and in this work the genius of von Karajan was most apparent. His ap- proach was conceived on so expansive a scale that details could be dwelt upon with great care while the whole span of the work un- folded with a near-intolerable beauty. The Sixty-Fifth Year.
