THE MICHIGAN DAILY 'EEA [PERTS' ADVICE: Safety Precautions Can Prevent Polio Epideniies Educators Still Fighting For Academic Freedom DAILY OFFICIAL BULLETIN Summer months are danger months when infantile paralysis lurks in every corner ready to .break out in severe epidemics. But epidemics can be prevented or danger reduced if people heed precautionary rules for themselves Drama Class For Teachers Teachers and others not con- centrating in speech will learn how to produce shows from a new course being offered this summer by the speech department. Teachers' Workshop in Drama- tics has no prerequisites. * * * APPLICATIONS for the course, which is limited to 30 students, may be made to the speech de- partment. In order to give students ex- perience in all phases of play production, directors, designers, costumers and stage techni- cians, as well as the cast, will be selected from members of the class wherever possible. The class will select a play and then proceed to stage it at the University High School auditor- ium. Jack Earl Bender, of the speech department, who is in charge, of the class, says that the equipment available at the- high school will give students an idea of what is available in the average school. and for children, according to the National Foundation for Infantile Paralysis. THE RULES CAN be easily fol- lowed and will not interrupt work or play duirng the summer. Crowds bring close contact, so head for the wide-open spaces as much as possible. Playing or working too hard and too long bring much-to-be- avoided over-fatigue, which raises susceptibility to all kinds of germs and viruses. NOBODY LIKES to swim in polluted water though they do it all the time, but for self-preserva- tion, confine beach sports to the bathtub when there is no other water to be had. Sudden chills are as bad as overfatigue, and summer weath- er is noted for its fickleness. And, as in any country and any climate, food tastes better when not left to the ants and flies. *- * * EARLY diagnosis and prompt treatment is the worst enemy of any disease, and in the case of polio such treatment often pre- vents serious crippling. Symptoms include headache, nausea or upset stomach, stiff or sore muscles and unexplained fever. In cases of excessive cost of treatment, the local chapter of the National Foundation will foot the part of the bill that the pa- tient or family cannot meet. (Continued from Page 1) ~~ ~------ ----- - ~ Ober criticized hiring of Com- munist teachers. "Most of the damage from (Communist ) teachers is done outside the classroom, made possible by the influence gained in the class- room-with prestige as a pro- fessor," he said. "The test of a professor's ac- tions ought not to be whether he can be actually proved guilty of a crime. Reasonable grounds to doubt his loyalty to our govern- ment should disqualify him ." 4. HOWEVER., AT THE same time, 20 top educators-including Dr. Conant and Gen. Dwight Ei- senhower, president of Columbia University-issued a report which said: Members of the Communist Party should, not be employed as teachers. The reason: A Communist has no academic freedom any- way; he surrendered intellec- tual honesty when he joined the party and now, sheep-like, does. what it tells him. But whether or not, Commun- ists would teach, it was evident that attempts to curb academic freedom would bring strong pro- test. .* * * DR. RUTHVEN refused to send the Un-American Activities Com- mittee a list of texts used here. "It is not within the rights of the Committee to ask for such a list. It would not mean anything anyway - we have hundreds of texts and courses and they are changing con- stantly." "In my private opinion, they had better send for a University Library Catalog-at their own ex- pense." * * * CORNELL President Day warn- ed that universities were in dan- ger of "infiltration, not by those attacking Communism, but by those who, under the guise of at- tacking Communism, attack some- thing quite different: academic! freedom." Dr. George F. Zook, president of the American Council onI Education, told the Committee that the survey raises "very grave issues." The House Committee decided they didn't need the books after five members of the nine man committee told the Associated Pressuthat they were not evenj consulted about Chairman Wood's request for book lists. Prrof. Sellars Co-edits Book Prof. Roy W. Sellars, of the phi- losophy department, was one of the editors of the recently pub- lished book "Philosophy for the Future." The book, sub-titled the "Quest of Modern Materialism," is an at- tempt to integrate humanism with adequate materialism. 4 * SELLARS contributed the ar- ticles entitled "Social Philosophy and the American Scene," and "Materialism and Human Know- ing" to the volume. Sellars is the author of sev- eral other philosophical books and editor of the "Philosophy for the Layman" series. V. J. McGill of Hunter College, New York, and Marvin Farber of the University of Buffalo are co- editors of the book with Sellars. Among other contributors are Prof. Leslie A. White chairman of the Anthropology'department, Roy K. Marshall and T. C. Schneiria.
