There is also backbreaking-but rewarding-work in politics-ask any field worker for a political ] party. To the surprise of the average voter, parties do not close up shop; after each election and reopen for business just before ,the next. There is a good deal of hard work to be done in the-interim period, and much of its falls to the un-, heralded, "other" side of politics -the professional staff. Little-Known Staffs Little is heard of these staffs3 -and that's the way they want it. It is their job to put the party's candidates over in the election. Take, for instance, Carol Lud- ington, a thorn in Michigan Re-E publicans' sides for several years. Miss Ludington was, until re- cently, a field worker for the Dem-1 ocratic State Central Committee. She directed! the party's cam-, paign in the 1955 and 1957 spring elections. The latter campaign en- abled Democrats to gain a nearly complete hold in Lansing and.cap- ture two big prizes - the State Superintendent of Public Instruc- tion's office and the State High- way Department. Leaves Party The 27-year-old Vassar grad- ate, whom State Democratic Chairman Niel Staebler described as one of the most ablepeople in the field of politics," has left the party-officially-to work for an Ann Arbor ,noprofit organization and to enroll in graduate courses at the University. She has been replaced by Richard D. Elder, a Michigan State University senior majoring in political science. "I will still be true to the party but in an unpaid, volunteer way," she said. All of which raises the interest- ing question, "How does a party replace a talented and devoted worker like her?" Chairman Staeb-1 ler gives these criteria for select- ing professional staff workers: un- derstanding of party principles and methods; plenty of energy; and plenty of tact. People Needed He says, "We need people who are not hunting for the easy life; people with no set hours who are willing to work after others go home." These criteria are echoed and Grtop To Sing In Fes ival Students from the music meth-7 ods class of Eastern Michigan Col- lege will participate in a "Festival] of Song" broadcast over WUOM at3 2 p.m.- today. The "Festival of Song" is a state-wide music instruction pro- gram for elementary schools spon- sored by the University's School of Music. arty Staff m Work supplemented by workers in the parties. One professional staff membel' said a worker must be able to work with people, make no more mistakes than usual, have some feeling for organization and have a great dedication to the party including a willingness to put in a heavy schedule. "We can't be a slave to a 40, or even an 80 hour week," he re- marked. Reasons Sought Why then, an observer asks, does the party worker submit him- self to the grind, to the readjust- ment in the way he lives and numerous other disadvantages, when he might be making much more (politicalIparties must de- pend on the magnanimity of in- dividuals and groups for financial support) in an easier way? The answers'he gets are couch- ed in generalities-but they are usually sincere. The answers run something like this: there is a rewarding sense of moving towardha given goal, a sense beyond the immediate ends of winning an election-the achievement of party goals and principles, of seeing something done in public policy in the 'way one thinks it should be done. Can 'Try Ideas Also, since the worker is usually pretty much on his own, he has an opportunity to try new ideas and show initiative. The work of the professional staff centers around consulting with other party workers, suggest-. ing new ways of doing things, and coordinating the work of the many people who "get out the vote." When' speaking of the "people who get out the vote," party, spokesmen become very reverent. They make up, as one professional staff worker put it, "the most im- portant single element in the party." Positions Limited The actual number of profes- sional party positions available is rather limited; it is estimated there are only about 500 in the entire country. This makes it clear that the principal way to get a party j b is through volunteer work. And this is just what professional work- ers want. One said, "There is so much room in political parties for peo- ple with ability-it is sort 'of a bottomless pit. There are great numbers of people working but still not enough." Volunteer Work ,What can a volunteer worker do, the prospective volunteer asks? A fabulous range of things, the professional workers answer. Included are publicity work, public relations, issue formulation, raising money and precinct/ work. The hours, they say, have been known to range from one per month on up. The glory-well, it may not be here, but the professional workers say the feeling of accomplishment in seeing the party's candidates win and its goals accomplished is glory itself.

"Though the ugly men are personally recognized each day, it has been four years since they have had sufficient pub- lic recognition," the article continues.

A decrease in calls for the Sal- vation Army truck to pick up dis- carded u/aterials from residents in the City is responsible for the request, Salvation Army officials said. The Salvation Army's request was t forwarded to the United Fund's budget committee which recommended that $400 be allo- cated. Collections Drop Only $405 in unallocated funds is in this year's United Fund bud- get, Robert B. Kerschbaum, exec- utice secretary of the fund, said. Salvation Army Lt. Vernon Hos- tetler estimated that collections so far this year have dropped off by 25 per cent. Outside agencies have appar- ently been picking up materials that would have gone to the Sal- vation Army. A greater number of trucks and a more eoncered ef- fort to pick up the discards seems to be the reason, Kerschbaum said. The Salvation Army presently has only one truck and is unable to solicit from door to door. Dis- cards are collected only when householders call their Headquar- ters. Pinching Pennies "We have not had to. 'curtail welfare grants and materials," Lt. Hostetler said. "We are pinching pennies and economizing on over- head and supplies." The United Fund's Executive Committee will review the Salva- tion Army's request and the bud- get committee's recommendation that only $400 be allocated today. The full United Fund board will also review the matter, on Dec. 5. Distributing toys, clothing or- ders, checks and dinner tickets to the needy at Christmas time are some of the Salvation Army's functions. Money taken in through Salva- tion Army kettles and a letter ap- peal to city residents is used to supplement funds from the dis- carded clothes pickup. CHECK FOR FIRES: Org niza Guards Responsible for 'U Security' Notice By JAYNE SALZMAN Who eats lunch in the wee small hours of the morning? Twenty-eight men do it every night, here on campus, as part of their job. They are the University security officers, sometimes known as campus nightwatchmen You may have seen them flashing their lights up and down the building walls or trying all the doors and ground-floor windows as they make their rounds. Watch for Fires The job of these men is chief- ly to , watch for fires and spot water main breaks, but a great deal more is involved. They often find themselves turning off lights, locking unlocked doors, picking up lost articles and checking all heat- ing, ventilation and air-condition- ing systems to see that they are turned off. Most of the men say that the biggest part of the job is simply "being human." They say the /most interesting phase , of the whole evening is the encounters with people working in the build- ings, both with and without proper identification. Many faculty members work regularly until very late hours. The visits of the officers, who stop at every lighted room, are always welcome. Excuses Amaze Officers The same visits are not always as welcome to those in the build- ing without authorization, but they are inteesting to the men who are often amazed at the excuses found for not having proper iden- tiftcation and keys. One round of the watch lasts approximataely two hours; the full night begins at 9:30 p.m. and ends at 6 a.m. with one half hour off for lunch in the early morn- ing. Many of the men will eat on location, perhaps with another man from a near-by route. Others will occasionally treat themselves specially with lunch in town, while the rest return to the security of- fice. Office in Quonset Hut The security office is in quon- set hut number one which is di- vided in half: the day half, which provides offices for three people, Albert E. Heusel, chief security of- ficer, John S. Walters, assistant chief, and Mrs. Georgine H. French, their secretary. The other half, the-night half, ordinarily contains only one man. the desk man. There is, however, always a trace of the entire group in the air which gives a feeling of closeness, warmth and concern for the men. On one desk is a stack of hunting, fishing and out- door magazines -and an ash-tray usually holding a ground-out ci- gar. Phone Rings Constantly Next to it is another desk, for the desk man, holding a telephone which rings almost constantly as the men report. If a man fails to make an hourly report he is immediately missed. The group leader will go to his route and search for him, working back from the end of the route. Searches are made by passing each key station beginning at the -Daily-David Arnold ALLEN PHILIP-The desk man in University Security office performs routine desk work while awaiting hourly reports from security officers on rounds. The desk man is in the office from 9:30 p.m. to 6 a.m. daily. end of the route. The keys are in small, locked boxes, usually in fire hose' closets, which must be punched on a man's clock every time he passes. There are 26 men working 15 routes under the directions of two group leaders. The routes vary from 24 to 34 keys and each man covers approximately 10- miles each night. Each building is cov- ered from top to bottom on every round. If any irregularities are found, they are reported imme- diately. Group Leader Checks Reports, again, are made to the desk man. If the problem at hand is particularly grave, he will check with the group leader. The offi- cer will wait on the spot until the group leader arrives to make a full check and fill out a detailed re- port. The men on the job have cho- sen it for various reasons. One of them simply feels that he works better at night and finds this job interesting. Others are retired from various professions ranging from ; sales- men to bakers and laboratory technicians, who wish to continue working. The men hold their jobs permanently but, if given an op- portunity for a more beneficial job, may resign. Applicants Checked All men applying for the job are carefully checked for personal standards and security. They must fill out a long, detailed govern- ment questionnaire which is quite thorough. The. final decision rests greatly on the man's personality: his ability to remain "pleasant but firm." The duties of the security office cover only certain buildings on the central and North Campuses. The dormitories, University hos- pital, and the fraternity and sor- ority houses do not come under the regular jurisdiction, of these men. Have Patrol Car The security office is assigned a patrol car and a pick-up truck for the use of the group leaders and the men going to North Cam- pus. They are also used over the weekends and holidays'when con- tinuous checks are made from 1 p.m. through 6 a.m. covering the entire campus. The welfare of the entire cam- pus and all its residents is, during all off-hours, in the hands of those men who are willing to eat lunch in the wee, small hours of the morning.
