Fire detection is the main con-
cern of the University security
c, force, according to Albert E. Heu-
sel, head of the force.
With many campus buildings
rated as fire hazards, the 26 men
under him are instructed to watch
continually for any sign of fire,
Heusel says.
He credits the restricting of the
potentially dangerous fire in the
Romance Language Building last
fall to the alertness of the officers
on patrol that night in spotting
the blaze while it was still small.
Heusel's men work from 9:30
p.m. to 6:30 a.m. each day check-
ing a particular group of build-
ings assigned to him.
Challenge Anyone
In their patrols men challenge
anyone they find in buildings af-
ter closing hours to produce iden-
tification.
If they do discover a prowler
the men are given authority to
hold him until city police arrive.
More commonly they find people
who have just unwittingly stayed
in the building after it closed.
The normal practice in the lat-
ter case is for Heusel to turn in
their names to the department in
charge of the building.
"Actually the work is not so
exciting as it may sound,"Heusel
says. "Like any other job it's
pretty much routine.
Lock the Doors
"For instance much of the work
consists in just locking doors and
windows left open at night."
Another frequent chore is to mop
up water when scientific equip-
ment linked up to water sources
bursts, he relates.
Heusel left the Ann Arbor police
force in 1952 to head the present
security set-up.
Supervise the Men
Besides his work of supervising
the men on the force, Heusel works
with the University parking auth-
ority and the Ann Arbor police
department on parking problems.
He gisven the authority to call
in the police to remove cars ob-
structing lots.
Junior IFC Elects
Getz President
Burt Getz, '59E, Sigma Chi
pledge class president, has been
elected president of the-Junior In-
ter-Fraternity Council.
John Gerber, '59, Beta Theta
Pi pledge, was picked as vice-presi-
dent. Emory Griffin, '59, Theta
Delta Chi pledge, was chosen sec-
retary and Sigma Alpha Mu
pledlge, Jim Richman, became
treasurer.
The officers were elected by the
JIFC pledge council after they had
petitioned and been interviewed
by a nominating committee.
At the same meeting, a plaque
was presented to Beta Theta Pi
for the most active pledge class.

THINNER CONCRETE SLABS:

11

Willow Run Airport is being
used by University engineers as a
pavement laboratory, according to
Floyd G. Wakefield, airport super-
visor. '
Speaking to an annual meeting
of the American Road Builders
Association yesterday, Wakefield
told how the University has been
studying and recording the his-
tory of each foot of pavement at
Willow Run.
Watching Every Inch
At the Miami meeting he said
that observation of the airport
has shown that new roads can be
built of longer-lasting, thinner
slabs of concrete, so long as the
road bed has the proper sub-grade
preparation and construction "dis-
cipline."
Wakefield also reported that
virtually every inch of the airport
terminal's pavement has been
watched closely since 1946, both
by foot surveys and aerial photo-
graphs.
Engineers have even gone so far
as to number every slab of con-
crete, record its history and esti-
mate its future life.

The compiled records, Wakefield
continued, show distinctly the
areas in which high standards of
construction were upheld or ne-
glected.
Building Long Stretches
Cracks, for example, have ap-
peared in some sections where top-
soil was not removed or where
drainage was poor.
University engineers feel this is
an important point to be consider-
ed during times, of pressure to
build long stretches of highway as
rapidly as possible, Wakefield told
the road builders.
Self-Survey
Group Picks
Nine Delegates
Nine delegates-at-large elected
to the Policy Committee of the
Self-Survey of Ann Arbor have
been announced.
They are James Brinkerhoff,
William Butzin, Mrs. Dorwin Cart-
wright, Peter Eckstein, '58, Tom
Harrison, Mrs. Sibley Hoobler,
Gustav, Leinbach, Donald Pelz,
study director for the Survey Re-
search Center, and Mrs. Elizabeth
Slack.
The nine, elected at a general
meeting earlier in the week, will
meet with organizational delegates
for a policy meeting at 8*p.m.
Wednesday in the Bethlehem Ev-
angelical and Reformed Church,
423 S. 4th.
Approximately 30 organizations
have joined in sponsorship of the
self-survey project.

undoubtedly taken their toll in the
University faculty," David Levy,
'57, chairman of the Literary Col-
lege Steering Committee claimed.
He went on to say, "Instructors,
aware of their status, promotion
and reputation can hardly be ex-
pected to endanger themselves in
our fear-ridden climate of politi-
cal opinion."
Maintaining that "the Univer-
sity faculty is fulfilling its basic
responsibility'to its students," In-
Lesle Scores
'Stagnation'
(Continued from Page 1)
In fact, Prof. Carr maintained,
"there hardly is a comnunity in
the University."
Common language and common
interests are the backbone of any
community, he said. "The inter-
est is there, but the language is
not."
He criticized barriers caused by
"differences in vocabulary and
terminology. We've lost the power
of translating."
Prof. Theodore Newcomb of the
psychology and sociology depart-
ments describedI faculty reluctance
to publicly discuss some issues as
often due to a feeling "that we
have no special competence to ex-
press an opinion.
Reserved Respect
"I'm not sure that to do so is a
good way of taking the role of
'leader of intellectual thought in
the University.' Many of us think,"
Prof. Newcomb continued, "we can
better take that role by demon-
strating a reserved respect for the
evidence than by rushing into print
with our opinions."
However, in "intra - University
affairs we don't have to be ex-
perts to be entitled to an opinion,
because about our own fate even
our opinions matter," he remarked.
"About expressing such opinions
I think some of us have been
frightened, and more of us have
been indifferent."

Kelly Probes
Changes Due
To Marriage
By MARILYN WOOD
How do individuals change dur-
ing the course of marriage?
This question has recently been
answered by a study involving 278
marriages.
Prof. E. Lowell Kelly of the
psychology department has been
gathering information for 20 years
concerning five questions about
marriages.
The study is still in progress,
but Prof. Kelly has completed the
phase concerning how individuals
change in marriage.
He concluded that there is con-
tinued psychological growth dur-
ing adult years. This subtle
growth is reflected in significant
changes in the individual's person-
ality.
After 20 years more emphasis
was placed on religious values by
both men and women, Prof. Kelly
found. This was the largest spe-
cific change which became ap-
parent in the study.
Men. and women differed little
in any of the tests, the professor
says. An example of this is shown
in the change in attitude of both
men and women toward house-
keeping.
At the first testing neither sex
expressed a particular dislike of
housekeeping. Twenty years later
both had shifted their views mark-
edly toward dislike.
Results of the study indicated
that women tend to gain self-con-
fidence during the years.
Another d4iscovery shows that
both men and women seem to be
slightly more masculine in their
likes and dislikes than formerly.
Mechanization of the -home
through modern appliances is the.
explanation offered by Prof. Kelly
for this trend. An interest in
things mechanical is commonly,
recognized as a masculine one, he
says. He adds that men as well
as women favor this mechaniza-
tion.
Other changes noted by parti-
cipants of self-rating scales are
tendencies to be less neat, less en-
ergetic, less broad in interests and
less good tempered.
Most consistent among both men
and women over the 20 years was
intelligence. Values held by the
individuals and vocational inter-
ests also remained unchanged in
the majority of cases.
Attitudes and personality self-
ratings were most changeable, the
study shows.
There was no evidence that "op-
posites attract" or that husbands
and wives grow to be more similar
as years pass, Prof. Kelly noted.
In fact, if anything, the husbands
and wives were more alike at the
beginning of the 20 years than at
the end, he added.
