tion between Negroes and Whites
in democratic measures.

Cinemascope, orlon, the H-
Bomb-- these familiar words we
never heard about 20 years ago.
Looking back aver the events
that have changed the tempo and
texture of our lives during the last
20 years, the editor of w national
magazine consulted several crys-
tal-ball makers to find out what's
in store for us 20 years hence.
Although they may now seem
inconceivable, here are a few pre-
dictions.
We will no -anger suffer ex-
hausting shopping excursions. Full
color fashions, possibly in 3-D,
will come right into the home,
through the medium of televi-
sion. A push of a button, and the
order will be transmitted directly
to the store. The TV shopper will
have much more variety in cloth-
ing. Every little store will be able
to carry goods from even the re-
motest corner of the globe.
Students of tomorrow may just-
ly be walking around in a continu-
al daze. Future educators plan to
use hypnosis to speed up the ab-
sorption of information.
The field of electronics is play-
ing an increasingly important role
in our lives. Scientists promise
even greater feats for tomorrow.
The parking problem will easily be
solved with moving strips and
punched cards. All accounting and
record keeping will be accomplish-
ed automatically by electronic de-
vices.
Sky Advertising
"The sky's the limit," so the
saying goes. Advertisers plan to
make it their billboard. New lights
200 times greater in intensity than
anything now used will enable sky-
writing at night.
Remarkable advances in travel
over the last 20 years show great
prospects for the future. Jet
planes will be whisking people all
over the world, landing them at
their destination even before
they're scheduled to take off!
In the home, all heating and
lighting will be invisible, without
any fixtures. Most of the food we
eat will be packaged. Wood will
become increasingly important --
as a source of synthetic food.
The trend toward more leisure
Green's
is here already. Twenty years from
now the four-day week will be
commonplace. One of our major
national problems will be the cre-
ative use of our leisure time. Ar-
ticles for recreation and hobbies
will be one of the most important
items in stores' stocks.

to 5 p.m. and 7 to 10 p.m. Sunday.
The library is not open Saturday.
One new attraction is "the take
it and leave it shelf." Students
may take a pocketbook from the
shelf in exchange for another one
which the student leaves in its
place.
Students who prefer listening to
classical music while studying
may use three music listening
rooms. The rooms are furnished
with modern chairs, tables, and
lamps. Recordings are piped into
each room from the central turn-
table in the League Library.
The music listening rooms are
in the memory of the late Barba-
ra J. Little.
Opening hours of the music
room will be the same as those of
the League Library.

THE TREEHOUSE OF THE AUGUST MOON
Spring is just around the corner, and with spring, as always,
will come tree-sitting contests. This I applaud. Tree-sitting is
healthful and jolly and as American as apple pie. Also it keeps
you off the streets.
Tree-sitting is not, however, without its hazards, as you will
presently see when I tell you the dread and chilling tale of
Manuel Sigafoos and Ed Pancreas.
Manuel and Ed, friends and room-mates, were walking one day
past the folk music room in the School of Dentistry and Fine
Arts. Suddenly they stopped, for coming through the door of
the folk music room was a clear and thrilling alto voice singing
the lovely folk tune, I Strangled My True-Love with Her Own
Yellow Braids, and I'll Never Eat Her Sorghum Any More.
When the last shimmering notes of the ballad had died away,
Manuel and Ed rushed into the room, and there they thought
their swelling hearts must burst asunder. For the singer was as
beautiful as the song! Fair as the morn she was, doe-eyed and
curvilinear.
"My name is Manuel Sigafoos," cried Manuel Sigafoos, "and
I love you madly, wildly, tempestuously!"
"My name is Ed Pancreas," cried Ed Pancreas, "and I love
you more than Manuel Sigafoos."
"My name is Ursula Thing," cried the girl, "and I've got
a jim-dandy idea. Why don't you two have a contest, and I will
r go steady with the winner?"
"What kind of contest?" cried Manuel and Ed.
"A tree-sitting contest," cried Ursula Thing. "Natch !"
"Done and done," cried Manuel and Ed, and they clambered
up adjoining aspens, taking with them the following necessaries:
food, water, clothing, medicaments, bedding, reading matter,
and - most essential of all - plenty of Philip Morris cigarettes.
We who live on the ground, with all the attendant advan-
tages, know how important Philip Morris cigarettes are. Think,
then, how much more important they must be to the lonely tree
dweller - how much more welcome their vintage tobaccos, how
much more soothing their mild pure flavor, how much more
comforting to know as one sits in leafy solitude that come wind
or weather, come light or dark, Philip Morris will always remain
the same dependable, reliable, flavorful friend.
Well supplied with Philip Morris, our heroes began their contest
- Manuel with good heart, Ed with evil cunning. The shocking
fact is that Ed intended to win the contest with a Machiavellian
ruse. It seems that Ed, quite unbeknownst to Manuel, was one
of three identical triplets. Each night while Manuel dozed on
his bough, one of Ed's brothers - Fred or Jed - would sneak
up the tree and replace him. Thus Ed was spending only one-third
as much time in the tree as Manuel. "How can I lose?" said Ed
with a crafty giggle to his brother Fred or Jed.
But Ed had a surprise coming. For Manuel, though he did not
know it himself, was a druid! He had been abandoned as an
infant at the hut of a poor and humble woodcutter named
Winthrop Mayhew Sigafoos, who had raised the child as his own.
So when Manuel got into the tree, he found to his surprise that
he'd never felt so at home and happy in his life, and he had
absolutely no intention of ever leaving.
After four or five years Ed and his brothers wearied of the
contest and conceded. Ursula Thing came to Manuel's tree and

YOU'VE7
Probably wondered
what the
Student Co-ops
are all about...
At Michigan there are three men's, three women's, and one married couples' cooperatives
which house about two hundred students. Here are a few facts on how the co-ops work.
WHO OWNS AND RUNS THE CO-OPS? WE DO.
Co-ops are owned by the Inter-Cooperative Council (I.C.C.), a corporation set up
and run entirely by the students who live or eat in the houses. Each member, new or old,
has one vote, and shares equally in all decisions: what to eat, how much to spend, how
much to work.
WHO MAY JOIN THE CO-OPS? ANYBODY.
Andbody who agrees to participate in running the co-ops democratically is welcome.
Members are accepted on a first come first served basis without racial, social, religious
or political discrimination. There is no pledge or initiation period.
WHAT ARE THE LIVING AND EATING ARRANGEMENTS?
As a roomer, you are provided with a bed, closet space, desk, chairs, shelves, storage
space as well as the social space and eating privileges. "
As a boarder, you get twenty meals a week, planned and prepared by you and your
fellow co-opers.
"Guffing", our traditional between-meal snacking, is one of our most cherished
privileges. Everyone has free access at all times to milk, bread, butter and jam, fresh
fruit, cereal and leftovers. Eggs and some other items are charged at cost.
Any member may invite guests. There are adequate laundry facilities. Co-ops stay
open during vacation periods and in the summer.
HOW MUCH DOES IT COST?
Each house sets its own budget. Average costs for the past semester have been:
approx. per week approx. per semester
For room and board $13.00 $208
For board only $ 8.25 $130
New members pay a $20 deposit when they join; it is refunded when they leave. There
are no other dues of any kind.
WHO DOES THE WORK? WE DO.
All the cooking, dishwashing, maintenance and management is done by the members;
each choosing the job he or she feels best fitted for. Any member, new or old, can be
elected officer: president, house manager, food purchaser, bookkeeper . .
It takes from four to five hours a week per member to run a co-op. The exact work
time is decided by vote of the house.
There are no maids, janitors, resident advisors or other paid employees,
HOW ABOUT THE LIGHTER SIDE OF LIFE?
Co-ops aren't merely an inexpensive way to live. The men's, women's and couples'
houses have together a aood number of orannized social events. Our members. comina
