COUNTRIES REPRESENTED:
students'To Debate Cyprus in Mock UN

Music School To Present
Mendelssohn's 'Elijah'

By RALPH LANGER
idents from 57 countries will
te the Cyprus issue in a simu-
i United Nations meeting at
am. Saturday in Rackham
torium.
ie Campus UN, sponsored by
Jnion in cooperation with the
national Students Associa-
will be the largest in the
I outside of the actual Gen-
Assembly. f
ne hundred and twenty-six
gn students will represent
countries in the two-session
nbly with all nations repre-
ed by citizens of that country
;t Russia. James Elsman, '58,
tdent of Soviet affairs, has
ented to represent the U.S.S.R.
ie assembly will debate the
ution drawn up by a plan-
committee selected by the
e resolution which provides
a, ten-year trusteeship under
UN and administered by the
rates and representing the
continents of the world.
ed Kingdom is pointed at
ng the government ultimate-
n the hands of the Cypriot
le.
Le three-countries basically in-

v o 1 v e d, Greece, Turkey and
Britain, all have claims to the is-
land of Cyprus. Britain because
Cyprus is a colony, and Greece
and Turkey because they consti-
tute the population of the island.
Both the Greeks and the Turks
want the British to leave but dis-
agree on the island's status after
this. Some Greeks want annexa-
tion to Greece and since 80 per
cent of the island's population is
of Greek origin a popular vote
would put the island's fate in
Greek hands.
The remaining 20 per cent of
the population is Turkish and they
advocate a "self-determination"
course for Cyprus. The Turkish
concept of self-determination de-
mands consideration for the mi-
nority and would not allow disre-
gard of the 20 per cent Turkish
minority.
Controversy is currently raging
over the possible conduct of a ple-
biscite to determine the fate of
the island and also what effect
a vote should have in face of the
overwhelming majority of Greeks
in the population.
Joe Collins,, former Student
Government Council president,
'58, will act as president of the

assembly which will meet in two
sessions and give the day's proce-
dure in opening ceremonies.
The assembly will be opened by
Prof. Inis L. Claude of the politi-
cal science department, who will
discuss the role of the UN in the
world today.
To Present Resolution
Following the opening ceremo-
nies the resolution will be pre-

manner. Under the new plan, a
student who withdraws after the
mid-semester date will have the
grade in the course recorded as
either "withdrawn, passing" or
"withdrawn, failing." .
Sedgwick feels, this will elimi-
nate the lack of distinction be-

while failing, and those who
dropped but had still maintained
a passing average in the course.
ducted by the Illinois Institute of
Technology, it was revealed that
outside employment has a definite
effect on a college student's
grades.. -
Results of the survey, which
consisted of recording the work
activity of more than 100 students
for a typical one-week period in
the, school year, showed that stu-
dents who worked more than 12
hours per week have somewhat
lower grades than those working
fewer hours or none at all.
The results prompted the ques-
tion, "Does a student have to be
extra intelligent to work his way
through college?"
x According to the survey, stu-
dents working more than 20 hours
each week had significantly high-
er scores on the college entrance
examinations than those who
worked less or not at all.
Administrators of the test com-
mented that "as the student in-
creased working time, he did not
correspondingly decrease study
time, but, in a wider sense, simply
worked longer."
