THE MICHIGAN DAILY w HIRTY FOR THE DOOG': Douglis'Shuffles Along' As Daily Sports Career Ends By ROBERT F. JONES If' you were to slash his arm, Maize and Blue blood would spout forth, and, chances are, it would form a neat Block 'M' where it fell. So do his friends describe The Michigan Daily's ex-sports editor, Phil Douglis, '56. The lean, in- tense Chicagoan, one of the most dedicated writers to hit the Daily scene in many years, has just wrapped up a "furious four years" of sports writing. "I doubt if anyone can find a 'Doog' story-from his first I-M cover to his last column-that hasn't got a chunk of fire in it." Steve Heilpern, associate sports editor-elect, was speaking. The Doog Exploded "I'm a 'brother' of Phil's - known him for three years. If he's anything, he's fiery. We were up in the press-box during the Iowa game this fall, and when Maentz went across that goal, the Doog exploded-like a volcano." Douglis's ability to involve him- self completely in a story is well, known to his co-workers on The' Daily. When the Doog is writing, his conscious mind is impene- trable. Hunched over a typewrit- er, his long fingers beat out stories and columns with a drum-roll of sheer ecstacy. Sometimes, Douglis admits, he gets carried away. But no one can doubt the lanky journalism major's sincerity in what he writes -especially not after half an hour's eonversation with him. Douglis had'three years of sports writing, plus the editorship of his Highland Park (Ill.) high school paper, under his belt when he came to Michigan. "I remember the wierdest story I covered in high school," he says. Professors To Conduct Inspectior Professors Russell A. Smith and Meyer S. Ryder will, during this spring and summer, conduct n~ extensive survey of the University's program in labor and industrial re- lations. V The project is being undertaken at the request of the Board of Regents. During last spring vacation the professors began a series of field trips to educational centers already active in this field throughout the nation. Among the colleges and univer- sities visited were Penn State, Rut- gers, NYU, Columbia, Cornell, Wis- consin, Illinois, California and Chi- cago. The survey will also include dis- cussion of expansion of facilities in this field with a University-wide Advisory Board and state labor and industrial leaders. Instruction in industrial rela- tions and related subjects is al- ready being given here at the Uni- versity in the School of Business Administration, the engineering college, the Law School, the liter- ary college, the School of Public Health, and the Graduate School. Lights Out At 'U1 University buildings went with- out electric lighting yesterday morning when exciters in the gen- erating equipment at the Plant Department failed.j Power was off throughout the entire University area from 8:45 a.m. to approximately 9:05 a.m. before a switch could be made in equipment and electric power ob- tained from the Detroit Edison Co. Iran Group Tours Area The University yesterday was host to a group of three top Iran- ian educators. The delegation, headed by Man- ochehr Eqbal, Chancellor of Teh- ran University, included Abdul ah Riazi, dean of the School of Engi- neering, and Mossrayollah Kas- semi, professor of medicine at the same institution. The group is in the United States to study the administration of American colleges and universities, the function of the government in connection with secondary schools, and the operation of parochial schools. They met with president Harlan Hatcher and other University offi- cials, visited the engineering col- lege and the School of Public Health, and toured the law build- ings, the medical school, and the University Hospital. They interrupted their stay on campus for a visit to Wayne Uni- versity, historic Greenfield Vllage in Dearborn and the huge Ford Motor Company plant at River Rogue. 'U' Representatives Attend Conference I J Delegates from Michigan's Inter- Fraternity and Panhellenic Coun- cil met last weekend at Purdue University, Lafayette, Ind., with representatives from all other Big Ten IFC and PanHel Councils. Discussion topic of the eighth annual meeting was "Growing by Forward Planning." More than 100 delegates and ad- visors, including five Michigan representatives, took part in con- ference and discussion groups working with such problems as: cooperative buying, university ex- pansion, sorority and fraternity rush systems, and pledge training programs. It was also agreecr that better relations with communities sur- rounding campus areas must be cemented by taking immediate steps forward as each IFC deems advisable. It was also decided that any problem or situation pertaining to segregation and discrimination be sent to the Panhellenic Councils of the Big Ten schools.

At left, "Doog" reflects on his pet topic-Michigan's great sports tradition. At center, he moans over biggest disappointment-Wolverine loss to Ohio State last November. Final camera study shows Douglis as he "explains the ropes" to a tryout., story. My boss tells me to climb up again. After that, everything turns into a yo-yo. I think I climbed the equivalent of Mount Everest that afternoon, and finally covered the game from the ground." Biggest Story What's the biggest story Doug- lis has covered at Michigan? "I guess the biggest one was the NCAA hockey championships at Colorado Springs last winter," he says. "But the most memor- able, and the hardest to forget, was the Ohio State game this fall." Many of the readers of Douglis' column in The Daily probably- wonder what the Doog's reaction to the 17-0 defeat was. "It was miserable," he groans, "like a sledge-hammer. I just ing. I was shaving in the com- munal wash-room, when another roomer walked in. ."'Who are you?' he asks, getting rather miffed. 'Phil Douglis,' I say, calmly scraping away at my chin. 'Well, what are you doing here?"' The Doog chuckles. "It took me quite a while to con- vince him I wasn't lying." Now A Technical Editor As of last Saturday, Phil's sports editor duties were over, although he is still technically the head of the sports staff. How does he feel about the end? "It happened too quickly. I feel sort of empty, as if there's some- thing I should be doing." Douglis still has plenty of activities to keep * him busy, however. A member of Tau Delta Phi fraternity, Druids, senior honorary, and Kappa Tau Alpha (a journalism honorary), the Doog has sometimes found himself attending at many as four meetings a week. As to the future, Douglis plans to "shuffle along'" td either a job in sports publicity or a stint of writing for a sports magazine, pre- ferably in New York City. He has "no driving, idealistic ambition," nor does he want to change any- thirig. Whatever the course fate holds for Phil Douglis, his Purple Prose (as he calls it) will always reflect an unquenchable fire of love for the color, action and romance of the world of sports. Organization Notices "It was football game. There sat there after the final gun and was this tall tower next to the held back a bitter tear for my field." / shattered dreams of California."
