He was prepared at Harvard and later held both the Prix de Rome fellowship and the Guggenheim Foundation Fellowship. He taught at one time at Wellesley and later at the Juliard School. Suggested by Painting "The Peaceable Kingdom" is a se- quence of sacred choruses and was suggested by the painting of the same title by Edward Hicks, to illus- trate the scripture by Isaiah, 11:6-9. It sets forth the longing of the hu- man heart and portrays the deep emotion and profound understanding of this prophetic writer, Isaiah. This Choral Vespers, according to Prof. Louis A. Hopkins, Director of the Summer Session, is the final wor- ship occasion for the summer session, but is given for the entire University and Ann Arbor public. Prof. Klein in Charge Prof. Maynard Klein, the director for the summer, has charge of the Choral Music at Sophie Newcomb School, Tulane University. "Commenting on the forthcoming j event, Dr. Edward W. Blakeman, Re- ligious Counselor, said, "Year after year the School of Music invariably produces an exceptional program at the end of the Summer Session. For the Religious Education Committee, I desire to express our appreciation to Prof. Klein and the members of this Chorus and soloists for their out- standing spiritual service to our stu- dents as well as to the citizens of Ann Arbor." i Soviet Film Of Nazi Warfare To Open Rackham Run Today * * * * One of the most moving and real- istic war films ever released will be shown at 8:30 today at the Rackham Lecture Hall as the Russian War Re- lief committee on campus presents "This Is the Enemy." "This Is the Enemy" has been ap- plauded everywhere as a true inter- pretation of the brutality of the con- flict between different ideas of the nature and future of man. In savage, episodic form this unique motion picture shows various B. H. Sajet Will Lecture Here Sunday University -students will get a first hand account of Nazi occupation methods from Dr. B. H. Sajet at 4 p. m. Sunday in the Rackham Lec- ture Hall. Member of the Municipal Council of Amsterdam until the German in- vasion and now associated with the Netherlands Information Bureau, Dr. Sajet has been brought to Ann Arbor by the Citizens for Victory. Because of his active interest in problems of public administration and his work as a member of the Dutch Social Democratic Party, Dr. Sajet's position in Holland became untenable after the capitulation. He escaped to England in a small rowboat with his two sons and his four companions to learn there of the death of a son who, serving in the Dutch Air Force, had crashed in a training plane. While working as a ship's doctor, a chance assignment brought him to America where he accepted a few speaking engagements beginning an assignment which has included a five month lecture tour of Canada. phases of the invasion of Russia by Hitler's hordes. It makes no bones about being a propaganda picture, a picture presented to show why and how the Russians put up their vali- ant fight. It is, according to the New York Post, a vivid presentation of the kind of war which every country invaded by the Axis must face. It includes guerilla warfare and how the Rus- sians have for the first time in mod- ern war employed it as a major wea- pon. Other episodes find the Nazi and the Russian in hand to hand combat. Performances will continue through Saturday and all proceeds will go for medical aid to Russian wounded through the agency of Rus- sian War Relief. Tickets may be ob- tained on campus, and at the door. Summer Band T o Play'Today Annual University Concertj To Be At West Park Under the direction of Leonard V. Meretta, instructor in the School of Music and assistant to the band di- rector, the Summer Session Band of the University will play its annual concert at 8:15 p. m. today in West Park.

The following selections are in- cluded in the program: "American Champion," by Smith; "Introduc- tion to Act III, Lohengrin," by Wag- ner; "American Patrol," by Meach- am; "If Thou Be Near," by Bach; "Prologue to the Golden Legend," by Sullivan-Williams; "The Cocoanut Dance," by Hermann-Yoder; "Iolan- the Overture," by Sullivan-Leidzen; "The Mosquitoes' Parade," by Whit- ney-Yoder; and "American Eaglets," by Meretta. VERY FUNNY INDIVIDUAL PHILADELPHIA, Aug. 12.-(A)-A 56-year-old painter, John Stull, was arrested today on a charge of mali- cious mischief. Police Lieut. Albert Granitz said the man drew a huge swastika with a painted note-"Kill all Jews" on a rooftop. Stull said he did it for a joke. Special Survey Reports School ystem Okay No Revolutionary Changes Needed; Board Approves Committee's suggestions The Ann Arbor Board of Educa- tion's special Survey Committee as- serted last night that it had found "no reason or occasion for revolu- tionary changes in the Ann Arbor school system." Despite anticipated disagreement over certain conclusions of the final report, the Board approved it unani- mously. The Survey Committee, appointed last October to investigate any prob- lems related to Board policies and procedures, teaching and school ad- ministration, stressed a comprehen- sive basis for elementary education, declaring: Values Important "Children should be taught to think, to have a sense of values, to develop physical and mental poise, to be trustworthy, and to take a re- sponsible position in society, as well as to learn reading, writing, spelling, and arithmetic." On the basis of its findings, and in possible answer to criticism of a large number of citizens the Commit- tee, composed of Chairman M. H. Waterman, Edna Dow and Ashley Clague, specifically recommended: 1. Remedial classes in arithmetic should be established for junior high school students where needed to meet individual requirements. 2. Possibilities should be consid- ered for achieving greater uni- formity and consistency in meth- ods and content in comparable grades of various schools of the city. Reading Question Stormy 3. The subject of reading, a par- ticularly stormy point during the controversy over reappointment of Superintendent Otto W. . aisley, is approached with recognition of the fact that the subject is. al- ready well handled, but that adap- tations may achieve still better re- sults. 4. The adoption of a new arith- ametic textbook series for the ele- mentary grades should be author- ized after careful consideration and recommendation by the Sup- erintendent. Cites Evolutionary Changes Citing examples of "evolutionary changes" which "should be and are taking place," the report pointed to revisions which have evolved in the school system in the past year "in part as the result of the Committee's activities." 1. A new procedure for hiring and promoting teachers. 2. A new series of spelling books has been adopted and put into use in the elementary grades. 3. Spelling has been established as a separate subject in 7th and 8th grades and will be taught be- ginning in September. 4. More emphasis has been put on arithmetic drill in the elemen- tary grades. Read The Daily Classifieds! V-I Is Opened To Pre-Law Students Now Freshmen, Sophomores Enrolled In Combined ProgramEligible Freshmen and sophomores en- rolled in the combined literary-law curriculum may now enlist in the Navy's V-1 deferment classification, the Law School announced yester- day. Enlistment bars were let down by a Navy Department decision which was made possible by the three-term programs inaugurated by this and other universities. Since letters-law students are not able to secure their degrees in Law in four years due to the addition of the Summer Term, they are able to meet the time requirements which formerly barred them from the pro- gram. Other changes in Naval Reserve qualifications will enable more men outside the Law School to enlist in the V-1 and V-7 programs. V-1 will now accept freshman and sophomore engineering, physics and mathematics students with 12/20 vi- sion, to be trained for assignments, as commissioned specialists after graduation. College graduates below the age of 28, whether married or single, are now eligible for V-7. Kelso Claims Preservation Of Open Mind LANSING, Aug. 12.-(P)-Dr. Rob- ert W. Kelso, University of Michigan sociologist, said today he was pre- serving an open mind in his role of "trouble shooter" in a dispute con- cerning state welfare policies. He has been designated by Gover- nor Van Wagoner to study reorgani- zation plans and propose new wel- fare legislation to integrate welfare activities. He stepped into a contro- versy caused when the civil service department demanded the welfare commission cut its payrolls $200,000 a year, and the social security bureau reported the plan was impractical. Kelso said he would study other states' welfare administration before making his own recommendations, and would proceed prudently, with "true economy" toward his goal. He said he recognized that too great a reduction of the supervisory staff might result in waste through carry- ing welfare clients on rolls long after they became ineligible.
