Candidates for admission to
medical school in the fall of 1957
are advised to take the Medical
College Admission Test n May, it
was announced by the Educational
Testing Service, which prepares
and administers the test for the
Association of American Medical
Colleges.
These tests, required of appli-
cants by almost every medical
college throughout the country,
will be given twice during the
current calendar year. Candidates
taking the May test will be able

Theme Picked
"Toward a Basic Definition of
Academic Freedom" will be the
theme of Academic Freedom Week,
to be observed on campuses across
the country from April 9 through
16.
Sponsored by the United States
National Student Association, the
week will emphasize the role of
students in the preservation and
growth of academic freedom in the
educational community.
According to Stan Glass, USNSA
president, "Academic Freedom
Week gives students an opportun.-
ity to consider again why they
are in college and what their role
isinca responsible and free aca-
demio community."
Student governments, aided by
USNSA, are planning special ob-
servances. Religious groups have
also been called upon to stress
the relation of academic freedom
and the Judaic-Christian tradi-
tion.
The National Office of USNSA
will distribute a special kit con-
taining resource material designed
to help campus organizations plan
their programs. Requests for kits
may be addressed to 1234 Gimbel
. Building, Philadelphia 7, Penna.

State Government
Praised in .Re port
Technical management of Mi-
chigan's state government is far
Above average and has improved
since the creation of the Depart-
ment of Administration, accord-
ing to a'recently published study
by the University's Institute of
Public Administration.
Important among the depart-
ment's achievements, authors Prof.
Ferrel Heady and Robert H. Pealy
of the Institute report, is encour-
agement" of cooperative action by
including most routine adminis-
trative tasks in a single agency.
In addition, they write, the De-
partment of Administration has
strengthened already well-devel-
oped activities such .as budgeting,
building and accounting, and has
built up poorly developed state
function's such as motor transport,
office services and purchasing.

estra will play in the Choral Un-

Carnegie
Gives Funds
To Institute
The Carnegie Corporation an-
nounce drecently it has granted
$1,500,000 to the Institute of In-
ternational Education.
The grant, one of the largest
ever made by the foundation, is
to be used by the Institute for sup-
port of its student exchange pro
gram. John W. Gardner, presi-
dent of the Carnegie Corporation,
declared it is believed the Insti-
tute's work was essential for in-
ternational understanding. "The
Institute has proved itself as the
pre-eminent organization in this
field for 37 years," he said.
The Institute of International
Education is a private, non-profit
organization which administers
exchange programs involving more
than 4,500 individuals. The In-
stitute's president, Kenneth Hol-
land, commented, "We are today
perhaps on the threshold of a dif-
ferent era in international rela-
tions. War on a massive scale be-
tweep the major powers becomes
increasingly improbable .

"Freedom of speech, press, and
religion become empty values in
the absence of free courts and pro-
cedures to assure justice," Prof.
Paul G. Kauper of the University
Law School said yesterday.
His lecture, "The Process That;
is Due" was the fourth of five
talks on "Frontiers of Constitu-
tional Liberty" in the Thomas M.
Cooley lecture series sponsored by
the faculty of the University Law
School.
Prof. Kauper examined the role
of the courts in molding the pro-
cedural frame work which pro-
tects individual rights in demo-
cratic society.

"Procedural limitations repre-
sent the supreme achievement of
any civilized society," he said. "In
their primary impact on the ad-
ministrative and judicial process
they symbolize the basic idea of
government by law, and the fur-
ther idea that all men shall re-
ceive equal treatment before the
law."
He pointed out the protections
provided by the fourteenth amend-
ment such as theright to a fair
trial, the right to counsel, privi-
lege against self-incrimination,
and freedom from use of coerced
confessions as procedural limita-
tions not left to the states.

Prof. Kauper observed that there
has been a closer scrutiny of pro-
cedures under the Fourteenth
Amendment which serve as bar-
riers against the oppression of the
individual.
"The procedures designed to
preserve the security of the indi-
vidual against the arbitrary asser-
tion of governmental power find
their most secure guarantee and
promise of fulfillment. in a free
society that subjects police, prose-
cutors and judges to the critical
surveillance and Judgment of an
informed public," he said.

EARTH SATELLITE SPADEWORK - Since 1946, University
rocket experts have been contributing to the science of rocket
flight by equipping more than 40 rockets for atmospheric studies
80 to 150 miles above the earth. At left, Research Engineer
Leslie M. Jones holds a seven-inch aluminum "sounding sphere"
that is carried 400,000 feet into the air by the slender Deacon
rocket on the rack, thn droppd.. As the sphere falls, it radios
data on air density and temperature to ground observers. All
but the propulsion units of the rockets are made here. Jones'
group also has proposed to build a five-foot earth satellite for
use in later launchings.

The kids who hold onto their dreams

All kids dream.
Some of their dreams are but phantasy.
Others are those of accoriplishment, of do-
ing something better, creating things 'that,
haven't been created before.
Many a lad has turned such dreams into a
way of life. They have become graduate en-
gineers. Equipped with an important array
of technical learning, they have taken posi-
tions in the nation's laboratories, engineer-
ing firms and factories. By doing so, they
are contributing to the health, welfare and
happiness of us all.
A Nation Salutes its Engineers
This week is National Engineers' Week. Be-
cause Minneapolis-Honeywell is basically an
engineering company, we take special inter-

A Special Group
Saluting a whole profession, though, is ex-
tremely broad. This company has come to
feel that there is appreciable difference be-
tween just an engineer and a Honeywell
engineer. Time and again, Honeywell's
engineers outstrip those of other leading
corporations with speed and effectiveness in
their solutions to difficult problems.
What accounts for this, of course, is the co-,
operation and spirit with which each job is
attacked. This makes Honeywell particu-
larly proud of its engineers. We now', there-
fore, not only salute the engineers of America.
We also want to express special appreciationi
to a special group within that profession,
the engineers of Minneapolis-Honeywell.
