Undergraduate Plans Offer MOST ALL-AROUND: Studies Abroad for Juniors IBM Selects Typical U Student By SALLY LEASE France, Spain, Switzerland, Italy. are countries where quali- fied junior undergraduates are, offered a chance by various col- leges to study. One of the ways for students to study abroad is through a college undergraduate plan. A working knowledge of the country's langu- age, recommendations from col-I lege teachers and a personal his- tory are necessary to be considered Council administrators. There are also curricular courses like anI educational course given in Mex- ico. Doctor Davis recommends that any student interested in study- ing abroad should contact Russell Hanson, Room 18 in the Interna- tional Center. Studying abroad could be an enriching experience, but as Doctor Davis says, "It de- pends on the person's objective." Petitions For J-HOP BANDS-Duke Ellington and Buddy Morrow will play dance music alternately at the annual J-Hop which will take place from 9:30 p.m. to 2 a.m., February 4 at the I-M Building.

This is the first time in several years that two leading bands will be playing alternately at the same dance. Ellington entertained several years; ago at the J-Hop, and he was received with much enthusi- asm at a concert in a "Negro Cul- ture" series presented here last summer. He also played last year at the Military Ball. Golden Thirties Ensemble Ellington's ensemble is the only one in the country that has never disbanded from the period of the "Golden Thirties." To add to his outstandingness as a pianist and band leader, he has composed a number of hits such as "Mood Indigo," "Sophis- ticated Lady," "Creole Rhapsody," and ''Never No Lament ("Don't Get Around Much Any- More.") He is quite accustomed to having his melodies used by other composers. Trombonist Morrow got his start with featured parts in the bands of Paul Whiteman, Eddie Duchin, Artie Shaw and Tommy Dorsey. Musical Hit Wins Name With his 1950 hit "Rose, Rose I Love You" which reached the top of all the big selling lists in the nation, Morrow achieved his posi- tion as leader of one of the top bands in the country. In 1951 his band was voted the number one most promising band in the country by over 2000 disk jockeys in the Annual Billboard Magazine Disk Jockey Poll. His successes include "Night Train," "Stairway to the Stars," and "Grayhound." He played at the 1954 J-Hop. Famous Trombone Morrow's trombone, insured for $10,000, is custom made with a special designand special materi- als and is the only one that he carries. Both bands have toured many parts of the country. They will, by request, play their own hits which have been popular record- ings. Band chairman Ann McDonald explained, "Some bands were eliminated not by our own choice, but because they were either in the wrong part of the country, making films or not touring." Campus Acts To Audition Gulantics Entry Blanks Obtainable at League Student acts, of all types such as comedians, singers, instrumen- tal groups and dance numbers, are equally encouraged to audi- tion for Gulantics, the annual all- campus talent revue. Those interested in trying out may make an appointment with Mary Klauer, who can be reached at NO 2-5618. Tryouts are to be held on Saturday, Dec. 8 and Sat- urday Dec. 15.

A contest was sponsored to, provide a name for it. The winner used the letter "G" for Glee Club, "U" for Union, "L" for League and added "antics", comprising the name Gulantics. popular and professional periodi- cals on marriage, family living, teen-agers and in-laws. "Facts of Life and Love," a book of sex education written by Mrs. Duvall primarily for adolescents, was banned in Detroit, according to Prof. Blood. He said this inci- dent raised quite a stir, and that the Detroit Council of Churches protested, saying this was the kind of book teenagers ought to be reading. Mrs. Duvall will be appearing on Prof. Blood's series of television programs on marriage, to speak on the subject of in-laws. Prof. Blood said that to his knowledge, she is the only person to have written a book on in-laws. has PhD Mrs. Duvall obtained her bache- lor of science degree at Syracuse University in 1937, her master's degree at Vanderbilt University and her PhD at the University of Chicago. She has also attended Northwestern University and thel Teacher's College of Columbia University. Books which Mrs. Duvall hasi written are "Building Your Mar- riage," "Facts of Life and Love," "Family Living," "Keeping UpI with Teen-Agers," "Leading Par-I ents' Groups," "Marriage Is What You Make It," "When You Marry" and "In;-Laws: Pro and Con." Her most recent book, "Family Devel- opment," will be published next year. Summer Teaching She has also done summer3 teaching at Florida State Univer- sity, Indiana University, Iowal State College, Kent State Univer- sity, Northwestern University, Syr- acuse University, the University of Chicago and the University of Tennessee. She is married and has two children. All the necessary accommoda- tions are arranged by Smith. They apply for the passage, and contact people for the student to stay with. The quarters are usually a little better than the average, for they have a homelike atmosphere. A student is more likely to re- ceive full credit for his year abroad if he goes on an approved plan. Smith College registers him in recommended classes. Doctor Davis of the Interna- tional Center says, "the competi- tion is tremendous." Every year people with many activities and campus records are considered as possible recipients so the students grades become increasingly impor-I tant. Language Major Not Necessary One need not be a language major to study on one of these plans. Many students study art,# architecture and history. The first six weeks that the student is in the country, he takes an orientation course in which constant use of the country's lan- guage is emphasized. All the class- es are taught by teachers of that particular country and many trips to nearby places of interest. Some students study abroad in- dependently. They usually stay at international hotels and arrange all their classes and incidentals for themselves. National Scholarships Offered There are four programs that offer national scholarships to graduate students. The Fulbright program gives United States Gov- ernment grants. Tht Buenos Aires convention has a study abroad pro- gram with twenty countries in the Western Hemisphere. The Rhodes and Marshall flans send students to England. Rhodes students must study at Oxford.

By NANCY STAMM Out of 56,000 qualified students in the United States one man, Gene Metsker, was chosen as the most typical college student. In recent months a telephone company has been featuring a se- ries of articles in its magazine about the lives of their 2 million employees. Most recent was an ar- ticle on the college education of one of the employee's children, Gene Metsker. Metsker, a junior in engineering school, was chosen from 56,000 students by an IBM machine which sifted and sorted them ac- cording to their qualifications. Midwestern Qualification Attendance at a midwestern co~l- lege was one of the'qualifications. The reason for this was to prevent favoring either the Eastern Ivy League or the Pacific West Coast League. A second qualification which Metsker fulfilled is being a stu- dent of Junior standing. The rea- son for the choice of a junior was to have someone who was familiar with college life. Extracurricular activities were the final qualification by which the IBM machines sorted the ap- plicants. A student who was ac- tively participating in a variety of activities, but not outstanding in any one of these was desired. WAA Tournaments Women's Athletic Association tournaments are in full swing again this week. Playing in the basketball tournament will be Delta Gam- ma against Alpha Chi Omega and Collegiate Sorosis versus Delta Delta Delta at 5:10 p.m. today. The third round singles matches of the badminton tour- nament will be held from 7 to 9 p.m. tonight, with the first round doubles matches sched- uled for the same time. Metsker has enjoyed his chair- manships on various committees despite the great amount of work. Last year he headed the Interfra- ternity Council's Christmas party given for the children of Ann Ar- bor's elementary schools. Metsker also headed the poster committee on Spring Weekend. "Duties associated with my fra- ternity, Alpha Sigma Phi, have been of great interest to me," said Metsker. At present he is secretary and pledge master of his house. During the two years that he served IFC social committee he wrote their manual. Writing is one of Metsker's tal- ents. He enjoys writing poetry and fiction. Although he considers himself "still an amateur" in this field, he won the National Schol- astic Writing Contest award for a detective story. At the University he has written for the Technic and worked on The Daily business staff. Engineering Major Metsker, who represents his -Daily-Harding Williams GENE METSKER - TYPICAL COLLEGE STUDENT class on the Engineering Board, is majoring in engineering physics. This summer he has the oppor- tunity to work in White ' Sands, New Mexico, for a company which is experimenting with guided mis- siles for the Navy. "I think it's a great opportunity for me to get a chance to work at something that I will enjoy and is still in the field I am in- terested in," remarked Metsker. At the end of the summer Met- sker is going to Washington where he is joining six fellow members of the Alpine Club, an honorary mountain climbing club, for a couple of weeks in the mountains. Favorite Pastimes Mountain climbing, playing golf, ice skating and leisurely listening to hi-fi are among his favorite pastimes. If he is deferred from the Army, the engineer's future plans in- clude further studying for his masters and eventually doing nl- clear physics work in space travel.
