Coon Opens 'U' Institute Near East America must pursue knowledge of the Near Eastern peoples and culture before undertaking any Point Four technical assistance to that area, Prof. Carleton S. Coon of the University of Pennsylvania said yesterday. Prof. C o o n, internationally known anthropologist, gave the first of a series of lectures at the opening of the University's In- stitute of the Near East. THE "understanding approach" might not seem the most effi- cient one, but it could mean the difference between success and failure of any Near East Aid, Prof. Coon said. "People in the countries get- ting assistance would resent our efforts as imperialistic if we didn't get to know them first," he said. "We must look at their prob- lems from their point of view and realize that these people have lived closely together for centur- ies and worked out a way of life we must not upset," he added. Prof. Coon lauded the efforts, of the University to achieve an understanding of the Near East through the Institute. He pointed out that the Near East is parti- cularly important politically to freedom-loving peoples as it is the only area on the periphery of the Soviet Union which has not yield- ed territory. Three concerts by the Stanley Quartet, two piano recitals by Willard MacGregor, and two re- citals by University organist Ro- bert Moehren will form the mu- sical bill of fare presented by faculty members of the School of Music during the 1950 summer session.

The final concert, Aug. 8, will feature the first performance of the Piano Quintet by Alvin Etler, with Benning Dexter as pianist. Mozart's Quartet in D minor, and "Rasoumowsky" Quartet No. 3 by Beethoven will fill out the pro- gram. The concerts will be given in Rackham Lecture Hall and will begin promptly at 8:30 p.m. * * * MacGREGOR'S recitals will be given July 18 and Aug. 1.
