Need for graduate fellowships in all branches of the University was shown, according to Council Di- rector Alan W. MacCarthy, in th report of the Council's Survey of Needs Committee, formed, last year to determine campus require- ments. Survey results pointedsout two "almost universal needs": space and student aid. Council officials explained that the space require- ment falls chiefly under state leg- islative jurisdiction. Logical Council Project Since a primary Council func- tion is to raise funds for Universi- ty needs not met by legislative ap- propriations, MacCarthy said ac- tion to increase student aid and fellowship support is "clearly a logical project for Development Council consideration." With most of the funds expected to come from corporations, foun- dations and special gifts, the Council hopes, MacCarthy said, to realize about $250,000 within a few months. Fellowship Needs "The fellowship program," As- sistant Council Director Thomas L. Dickinson remarked,. "is intended to satisfy the fellowship needs of all the University's schools, col- leges and administrative units." Decision to launch the fellow- ship program has been discussed informally with University admin- istrators, and formally . with the Council's Executive Committee, which has already endorsed the program. Fraternities List Pledges During the open r'ishing period which has lasted since the close of formal rushing last semester, 53 men have been pledged, Interfra- ternity Council rushing chairman Bob Knutson, '56, said yesterday. They are: Acacia: James Aurand, '56E.

"We are pooling our resources so we can take on the task of or- ganizing the great mass of unor- ganized workers in America and build a greater industrial democ- racy," Reuther said. Stronger Union Result Meany and Reuther said that welding together of their federa- tions would bring about a stronger and more effective union move- ment in dealing with employers and in seeking to achieve political aims. Under the merger arrangement the two top jobs in the new fed- eration will go to the AFL, with Meany and AFL Secretary-Treas- urer William Schnitzler due tp take over the same jobs in the new setup. CIO To Name Head CIO unions ire to enter the AFL as a "Council of Industrial Organ- izations" with the right to name their own leader, who probably will be Reuther although he smil- inglysaid he would not be a can- didate. The merger agreement will be considered here today by the AFL Executive Council. Approval was considered virtually a foregone conclusion since many top AFL leaders took part in the success- ful merger negotiations. The pact will go before the CIO's Executive Board at a special meet- ing in Washington on Feb. 22. A formal constituton for the new federation then is to be drawn up along the lines of the detailed agreement worked out yesterday. Fourth 'Extra' 'Concert 'Today Features Stern Isaac Stern, famed American vi- olinist, will appear in the fourth, concert of the Extra Concert Se- ries at 8:30 p.m. today in dill Auditorium. He is now engaged in his 13th annual coast-to-coast tour of the United States and Canada. His itinerary lists more than 125 concerts, during which he plays on his 250-year-old Guarnerius vi- olin. San Francisco Debut Stern was 11 years old when he made his debut with the Sympho- ny Orchestra in his native San Francisco. Its conductor, Pierre Monteux, became enthusiastic. "I haven't heard such playing since I listened to the young Kreisler," Monteux exclaimed. Appearances with numerous or- chestras followed and he made his concert debut in 1937 with an ap- pearance at Carnegie Hall in Jan- uary, 1943, shortly before his 23rd birthday. Three seasons ago, Stern world- premiered the Violin Concerto by William Schumann and is also re- sponsible for the first performance of Hindemith's "Sonata 1939." Program Included on Stern's program to- day will be "La Folia" by Corelli, "Sonata in A Major" by Franck, "Concerto No. 3 in G Major" by Mozart, "Rapsody" by Ginas- tera, "La Fontaine d'Arethuse" by Szymanowski and "La Campanel- la" by Paganini. Tickets for today's concert are available at the offices of the Uni- versity Musical Society in Burton Tower and after 7 p.m. at the Hill annual Homecoming l student government d 18L late next month.
