btempt to catch the Rus-
aking at the University
ation exercises, John A.=
s, United States Under
,ary of Health, Education

le - better socially, cul-
r and spiritually, as well as
ially."
s k i n s spoke before an
ice of approximately 4,000
y members, candidates for
as, their families and friends.
hen we measure the effec-

tiveness of the United States as
a world leader, we must not think
so much about the State Depart-
ment, Secretary Dulles, President
Eisenhower, or Congress on the
Hill, but about ourselves. Painful
though it may be, what we con-
tribute to the rest of 'the world by
our work is what will count," he
continued. .
Perkins is presently on leave as
president of the University of
Delaware. He is the holder of
three degrees from the University,
including his doctorate. .
"You will never experience the
full rewards and satisfactions of
life if you conceive of your work
merely as personally getting on in
the world. You must help the
world get on as well," Perkins told
the graduates.

A misunderstanding over ap-
pointments to the committee on.
fraternity and sorority member-
ship restrictions caused postpone-
ment of the appointments at Stu-
dent Government Council's final
meeting of last semester.
The Council also approved a
motion asking for the return of
final examinations to students.
SGC tabled the committee ap-
pointments because of a question
as to who would make the ap-
pointments.
Interfraternity Council Presi-
dent Rob Trost, '58, and Panhel-
lenic Association President Mari-
lyn Houck, '58Ph, said they be-
lieved their organizations' recom-
mendations regarding members
would be followed by SGC.
Selections Not Binding

'58, said one function of SGC was
to express student opinion on
matters concerning the student
body.
Miss Scruggs reported the Na-
tional and International Affairs
Committee had sent 16 letters to
foreign universities in regard to
an exchange program, and had al-
ready received one letter from the
Auslanderstelle U n i v e r s i t y in
Hamburg, Germany, expressing
great interest.
Election Date Set
Goldman told the Council that
the spring election would be held
on March 25 and 26. He said no
Elections Director had been ap-
pointed yet.A

Union President Don You
158; announced that John Ga
former editor of the Daily Wor
would speak on "Why I Left
Communist Party" on March
beginning the SGC Forum. Col
said the Lecture Committee
approved the speech.
Ron Gregg, '60, chairman of
Education and Social Welf
Committee, suggested that S
take over maintenance of
examination files in the Uni
graduate Library as a service
the students. He said the libr
did not have sufficient person
to maintain the files. The p
posal will come before SGC in
near future.

After 20 years of waiting and
some two weeks of moving, the
romance languages department'
has completed its shift to newly-
completed headquarters in the
Frieze Building.
In its new home, the depart-
ment has the adequate office and
classroom space which it sought
for two decades.
. Thedcampus relic which housed
the department for 29 years -
until Jan. 24 - will be razed
"within 60 days" and its site, ac-
cording to present plans, will not
be utilized for a new building.
Nostalgia Wanes
Prof. Charles Staubach, chair-
man of the romance languages de-
partment, noted that feelings of
nostalgia toward the old building
on the part of the department's 81
staff members are already dimin-
ishing in the face of increased
space and brighter offices in the
new building.
He observed that because the
old building was designed as a
museum, it was not well suited
to be a classroom structure. Each
year, the department became more
crowded until - in recent years
-both office and classroom space
were at a premium.
Many Private Offices
In the Frieze Building, many
professors have private offices.
Teaching fellows share large of-
fices in groups of five.
The German department has
alsohbeen relocated in the new
building. In the older, remodelled
part, of the building, in addition
to classrooms, the School of So-.
cial Work and the speech depart-
ment have offices.
As a result of the move 'to the

new building, Prof. Staubach not-
ed that professors have, at times,
"lost" their rdepartments and
found themselves in unfamiliar
areas of the modern, four-story
structure.
NSA Suggests
Editor Trade
The United States Nationalx
Students Association has pro-
posed an exchange of stident
newspaper editors with the So-
viet Union.
The Soviet Committee on Youth
Organizations. told NSA it would
consider the proposal and reply
shortly.-
The exchange calls for five
United States editors to visit Rus-
sia during the month of April,
with five Russian student editors
to return to this country in May.
The proposal was thenresult of
negotiations b e t w e e n United
States Ambassador William Lacy
and Soviet Ambassador Georgi
Zarubin, at the suggestion of the
State Department.
)ruce Larkin, NSA internation-
a vice-president, said the short
program would be appropriate for
student editors, since they can
grasp new situations and issues
quickly.
NSA previously favored aca-
demic exchanges on a yearly basis
rather than short-term visits. If
approved, the exchange would be
NSA's first with Russia, although
the group conducted a trip to Po-
land last summer and will do so
again this year.

Council to Choose
SGC President Joe Collins, '58,
said the Executive Committee act-
ed in good faith on the appoint-
ments. !Administrative Vice-Presi-
dent Maynard Goldman, '59,
pointed out that the motion said
the Executive Committee would
make the appointments with ap-
proval from SOC.
Trost replied that he thought it
was understood in the discussion
when the committee was estab-
lished that IFC and Panhel would
appoint their members.
The motion on final examina-
tions, stated that the examina-
tions were not living up to their
potentialreducational value, since
students could not receive" de-
tailed comments on the exams,
but only letter or numerical
grades.
'Follow Up' Considered
Discutsion of the motion cen-
tered on the effect of the motion
and the possible need for SOC to
follow up on it. Dan Belin, '59,
said the Council would need to do
something to implement the mo-
tion, noting that SGC has re-'
ceived much criticism for not do-
ing anything.
Jean Scruggs, '58, said the
Council should act through its
standing committees, and the mo-
tion need not propose specific ac-
tion. Daily Editor Peter Eckstein,
