JUNIOR GIRLS' PLAY:
All Girl Cast Gives
Happy Performance
"LIVE IT UP," the 1957 Junior Girls' Play, opened last night for its
first public performance to an audience of parents, boy friends,
and discouragingly few of the idly curious. The cast, however, seemed
undismayed by the sparse attendance, and played as though the house
were filled.
Though JGP is never big box office, the hour and a half this review-
er spent at Lydia Mendelssohn was pleasant. The entire affair, from the
book by talented-in-many-areas Nancy Willard, to the faces of the
performers was a happy one,
The simple story concerns the efforts of the eight heroines, typists
for the Wessel Everything Co., to earn their Florida vacations by dis-
covering what makes people happiest.
Though momentarily perplexed by the cross purposes of two rival
women's groups, the girls do, of course, find the answer, couched in

DARTMOUTH COLLEGE last week decided
to help its student body become less de-
pendent on its intellectual crutches and con-
centrate more on being individual, interested
scholars. The faculty approved some reforms
after two years of study.
Among the changes will be: scrapping the
two-semester system for a three-term system
which will allow students to take only three
subjects and delve more deeply into each; sup-
plementing large lectures with added seminars,
tutorial work and original research papers;
substitution of required outside reading and
primary source material for many textbooks,
syllabuses and lectures.
When an eastern college with a high schol-
astic reputation gets worried about the quality
of its education, it's time for other schools
around the country to do some soul-searching
along the same lines.
AND PERHAPS Dartmouth's revisions are
particularly pertinent to the University,

n of Faculty Arthur Jensen, Dartmouth College
which also has a fine scholastic reputation, but
may be in danger of losing it to the modern
conception of assembly-line education.
The old complaints about too-big lectures and
too-little faculty-student communications have
been kicking around for a long time, but only
recently have colleges begun to do anything
about it. Last month, the Literary College took
a giant step when it instituted an Honors Coun-
cil, designed primarily to foster a split-level lib-
eral arts program to aid the heretofore pretty
much neglected superior student.
THE GIANT STEP will be useless, however,
without more steps, carrying the University
to a higher scholastic destination. We would
suggest that, in the course of its investigations,
the Honor Council give a look at some of the
things Dartmouth and other schools are doing.
Then perhaps,, University students can start
relying less on those convenient but inhibit-
ing crutches.

naive philosophy. But not before a
good deal of singingand dancing
has filled out the skeleton plot.
JGP IS A fifty-three year old
traditional production d e s i g n e d
more to amuse the performers
than to wring rousing cheers from
the audience, and this one serves
its function well. The ideal is to
star no one but to feature every-
one, so that while the burden of
making or breaking the show rests
on the talents of no one individual,
the success of the production lies
in a series of bit parts well done.
The .characters are clear-cut
types, placing no strain of deli-
cate interpretation on non-profes-
sional players, and the cast is
large enough to provide plenty of
costume and make-up work for
those who prefer to exercise their
talents backstage.
* * *
FORTUNATELY, with the ex-
ception of one walk-on, the play
was written to exclude male roles
to be played by girls.
Nor did the songs or dince

numbers place impossible demands
on the abilities of the performers.
Two of the songs, "We're Sick of
Working," by Nancy Willard and
Angela Suino, and "We Came to
Get Away," a calypso by Alice
Basford and Beate Kaulfuss, were
outstanding,
The orchestra, conducted by
Alice Basford, often had the reedy
charm of a German band, and the
choral harmony was conventional
but tuneful.
Professional guidance was pro-
vided by Ted Heusel, Civic Theatre
Director, who must have had the
time of his life. It is pleasant to
know that in a single class at the
University there are enough young
women with creditable talent to
be able to originate and produce
an entertaining performance in
musical comedy tradition. No pro-
fundities belabored, no axes
grourd, no superlative adjectives,
just fun. Many of the girls are very
pretty, too.

AA School Operating Tax

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR:
Students Playing Voting Games?

DAILY OFFICIAL BULLETIN

ANN ARBOR VOTERS have been asked by
the Board of Education to approve a four
and one-half mill special school operating tax
at a special election May 7.
The millage increase, which would cost tax-
payers $7.03 per $1,000 of property evaluation, is
aimed at providing a $500 salary increase for
public school teachers; staffing the three new
elementary schools; meeting the cost of operat-
ing the new schools; and replacing the "increas-
ing loss" of money from other sources.
A study of school and civic improvement is-
sues presented to Ann Arbor voters in the
past indicate that favorable disposition .of the
issue, essential though it is, is not likely. Worth-
while projects, such as Veteran's Memorial
Park and more recently, a school improvement
issue, were decisively defeated by Ann Arbor
voters.
Whereas such projects as these were dispens-
ible, though, desirable, the increase in millage is
an issue which is vital to the education of city
children.
Regardless of the cost involved Ann Arbor
voters cannot afford to defeat a measure neces-
sary to continue adequate education of their
youth,
HE TENTATIVE school budget for the 1957-
58 school year has already been pared to the
point of actually changing the type of education

in Ann Arbor. And this budget was based on a
five-mill increase figure.
No one has yet offered any suggestions of
where the money can be obtained to operate
Ann Arbor schools should the tax be defeated.
This is not an issue in which voters have any
real choice, for the alternatives are: support
the tax and continue education, or defeat the
tax and forfeit a chance for adequate education
-for hundreds of Ann Arbor youths.

Books in Snack Bar,
Coffee in Library
EVER try to drink a cup of coffee in the
Union Snack Bar?
Doughnuts will get you dollars you can't find
a place to sit down fifty per cent of the time.
Half - sonetimes more - the booths and
tables look more like Angell Study Hall than a
coffee shop.
Thought there was going to be some kind of a
no study policy down there. If that won't work,
maybe somebody could set up a coffee stand in
the library.
Then everybody'd be happy - drink coffee in
the library and read books in the Snack Bar.

All Right, I Won't . .
To the Editor:
WE ARE assuming the Carol
Prins' editorial appealing to
the public apathy in the all-
campus voting was intended to
make everyone angry enough to
run out and cast their ballot (that
is, if there were any officials at
the voting stands and ifthey had
any ballots). If you want to get
people angry enough to run out in
the sleet to exercise their "demo-
cratic prerogative", you have to
use obvious lies in your irony.
Negative, obvious truthful state-
ments will only keep them away
from the polls.
It seems to be a question of vot-
ing in a popularity contest for a
favorite pseudo-politician who will
represent us on a governmental
body that is analagous to a de-
toothed, de-clawed lion with
laryngitis.
We are certain that the Big
Blue University could run quite
well without the added confusion
of SGC et al. After reading the
editorial, we had the urge to go
back to the voting box to try to
retrieve and destroy our ballots;
but then we decided that if 5555
other students wanted to play
voter and play a part in the farce
of student government, we'd go
along with the gag.

Listen, You Chillen .. .
To the Editor:
AFTER reading your March 17
editorial on the Middle East
this was the result:
Now listen you chillen; now gath-
er round
And I'll tell you a tale that will
astound.
Many years ago man felt that he
could
Live in international brotherhood.
So he built him a building in old
New York -
It was splendorously grand-like
a country resort.
He set up a big sign right on top
of the roof
And the sign said "U.N." and we
ain't here to goof.
But the plans of men, like mice,
run away,
And the U.N. was doomed 'fore its
first birthday.
'Cause inside that building of
metal and stone
The dove of peace stood lost and
alone.
For the great men of nations just
came and sat -.
They couldn't do more than have
a little chat
'Cause the old devil veto stood in
the way
And with it the Ruski held the
world at bay.
Thus sloughed the U.N. through
storm and rubble

Fearing firm justice would
up trouble.

stir

They came here these leaders and
sat every year;
The chairman which ruled them
was known as fear.
The Ruski mauled Hungary and
further did creep -.
And the great men of state hardly
uttered a peep.
And then tiny Israel struggling
for its life
Turned on old Egypt and engaged
in strife.
"Halt!" shrieked the U.N., "Thou
art a cruel villain.
We can't condone such needless
killen.
Back up - go away -- get back
where you belong;
We'll watch old Nasser." Sweet
was their song.
They sent in a force - strong U.N.
power -
But old Nasser's hot words made
them wilt like a flower.
The U.N. was tricked and old Nas-
ser was king --
The U.N. was dead like some old
relic thing.
It could have been strong and
stood up for the right,
But it stumbled and surrendered
the world to might.
And so, little chillen', you can let
drop a tear
For those strong men of justice
who were ruled by fear.

INTERPRETING THE NEWS:
Jessup's Middle East Plan

By J. M. ROBERTS
Associated Press News Analyst
DR. PHIILIP C. JESSUP has joined the ranks
of those who think it is the responsibility of
the United Nations to present the Middle East-
ern states with a definitive plan for peace and
then "make it stick."
Dr. Jessup is professor of international law
and diplomacy at Columbia University and a
former member of the United States delega-
tion to the UN.
His suggestions for what such a peace plan
might include cover those recently outlined to
Elmo H. Hutchison, Middle East director of
American Friends of the Middle East, by Presi-
dent Nasser of Egypt, and go slightly farther.
For years the Arab world has contended that
Israel must be destroyed.
Nasser says that if Israel will settle down for
good behind demarcation lines set by the United
Nations, and if she will compensate Arab refu-
gees from Palestine for their losses, the Arabs
will now agree to coexistence.

JESSUP would guarantee the existence of a
nonexpansionist Israel behind permanent
borders and compensation of the refugees.
He would incorporate in the plan an inter-
national economic program, guarantees of in-
ternational access to the Suez Canal, the Gulf
of Aqaba and all holy places.
The idea of a more or less imposed peace has
been kicking around for some time now. Chief
reaction has been that, since the United Na-
tions has been unable to get any action through
individual resolutions already passed on all of
these matters, there isn't much hope for a pack-
age deal.
There have, however, been many changes
in the situation since the partition of Palestine,
by which the United Nations assumed a moral
obligation to carry through on the problems
thus created.
FOR ONE THING, the world watched last fall
in terror as the nations involved in the Mid-
dle East, large and small, brought on a most
dangerous threat of World War III.
For another, the United States, which must
provide the backbone of any UN effort, estab-
lished a new position during the crisis of the
Arab world.
She demonstrated that in a choice between
her principles and her best friends, principles
come first. By so doing, she has developed a
faith among the Arabs that a UN program
backed by her can be trusted.
Under these circumstances, if the UN de-
manded acceptance of settlements based on
what it considers the most equitable terms pos-
sible, the nations involved would have to think
twice before rejection. For the alternative would
be to make them virtual outlaws.
One of the first essentials would be to es-
tablish absolute quiet along Israel's borders
through a UN-manned buffer zone.

EIGHTY-THREE million people,
now masters of their own des-
tiny after centuries of alien rule,
have set out to build a state where
the people's will has the final say
and where justice, tolerance, and
progress flourish.
This is not an easy task and the
Pakistanis have yet a long way to
go. But as today they celebrate
the first anniversary of their
country's becoming a republic,
Pakistanis may well congratulate
themselves on the progress already
made and look to the future with
optimism.
There was a time when its crit-
ics predicted, and its friends
feared, the new nation would fall
apart. There were gloomy days
when the deaths of the infant na-
tion's leaders left it in darkness,
groping for support, not knowing
what to do.
The days of turmoil that threat-
ened her very existence now lie
buried in the archives of history.
Today Pakistan, fifth largest
country of the world and Ameri-
ca's stanchest ally in Asia, is a
vigorous young republic with the
energy, enthusiasm, and imagina-
tion of a youth, determined to
challenge the problems confront-
ing her, and win.

vide and rule." The Hindu re-
sentment against the Muslims was
based both on legitimate historical
grievances and prejudice, mani-
festing itself in the form of the
caste system, then prevalent
amongst the Hindus.
Despite the persistent efforts
of men of goodwill of both the
communities, Jinnah and Gandhi,
for example, .the Hindu-Muslim
tension continued to grow, parti-
cularly from 1935 onwards when
the question of independence
came into sharper focus. Commu-
nal riots became a common-day
occurence, discrimination in busi-
ness, government jobs and other
activities became the order of the
day.
To ensure their legitimate rights
and their very existence, the Mus-
lims demanded the creation of a
separate, sovereign state com-
prised of territories in India
where the Muslims were a ma-
jority. This step was taken only
as a last resort, previously the.
Muslims had supported the idea of
independence for a united India.
In fact, the poet Iqbal, the first
to conceive of the idea of Pakis-
tan, said: "Religion does not
preach hatred and intolerance. All
of us are Indians and India is our
motherland."
* * *
THUS ON August 14, 1947, Pak-
istan was born. On that day the
late Mohammed AliJinnah, the
father of the Pakistani nation,
said: "The establishment of Pak-
istan, for which we have been

ernment of India. The Indian
Government retained governmen-
tal machinery and buildings. The
Pakistan government had to look
for offices, a civil service, and
armed forces where none had ex-
isted before.
To add to the burdens, more
than eight million refugees from
India sought a haven in Pakistan
while five million left in the op-
posite direction. As a result of
India's armed action in Kashmir,
600,000 Kashmiris sought shelter
in Pakistan. To provide these
people with food, m e d I c i n e,
clothes, shelter, and eventual re-
habilitation was a gigantic task.
* * *
FURTHER, AT the time of in-
dependence, Pakistan was back-
ward. The per capita power avail-
ability was one per cent of that
of Japan. Though it had 85 per
cent of the world's jute, it did not
have a single jute factory. The per
capita level of imports amounted
to only $6 annually. The rate of
literacy was 13.8 per cent. The
average lifespan was only 20 years.
During those stormy days, the
Pakistanis had little except Faith,
Unity, and Discipline.
Perhaps even more serious was
the division of Pakistan into two
areas, one in Southeast Asia and
the other in the Middle East, sep-
arated by a thousand miles of
alien territory.aThe province of
East Pakistan had a larger popu-
lation than all of the five prov-
inces of West Pakistan combined,
posing almost' insurmountable
