f£ I' PAGE O"U THE MICHIGAN DAILY WEDNESDAY, JULY 22, 1953 I CONDUCTOR'S WORKSHOP: Band Shows Better Techniques By DONALD HARRIS "Now friends, the Michigan Band will begin by playing 'Mem- ories', a medley of old familiar tunes:' "The Band has never seen this music before. It is in a modern ar- rangement. A good C Band could play it, and it would be excellent of course for any A or B Band. It is a particularly good piece to play for audiences who like the old fav- orites." THIS MAY seem like a curious way to begin a concert, but this is not a concert. It is a reading, a typical event of the Fifth Annual National Band Conductors Confer- ence Workshop now being held at the University. The speaker is Prof. William D. Revelli, conductor of the Mich- igan Bands, and those to whom he is speaking are the many Band conductors and woodwind teachers who each year attend the Workshop to exchange ideas with their fellow musicians and to learn the latest In Band tech- nique and presentation. Of prime interest to these con- ductors, who represent every type of Band from high school to col- lege, are the relative performance difficulties of the pieces in Band literature, especially those pieces new to its literature, and the aud- iences to whom these pieces are best suited. * * *.* THROUGHOUT the nation, Bands are arranged according to classes. The class in which a Band falls is decided by the size of en- rollment of the school it comes from. Thus an A Band comes from a school with a greater enrollment than a B Band and so on down the line. The Michigan Band reads through much music during the five day session. In addition the Workshop maintains facilities so that the visiting Bandmasters can immediately order the music and have it sent to their respec- tive communities. When the Band conductors re- turn home, ,they will have heard a great deal of music which will better equip them in selecting their own programs, both from the standpoint of audience and per- formers. ' HEADLINING the events in the Workshop today will be the con- cert by the Cass Technical High School Band, Harry Begian con- ductor, at 8:30 p.m. in Hill Audi- torium. Their program includes selec- tions from Stravinsky's Firebird Suite, the Warsaw Concerto, Mussorgsky's Pictures at an Ex- hibition, Bennett's Suite of Old American Dances, and Richards' Hail Miami March. There will be a panel discussion on "Uniforms for the High Scool Band" at 11:00 a.m. today in the Vandenberg Room of the League. The first concert by the Michi- gan Summer Session Band will be held at 8:30 p.m. tomorrow in Hill Auditorium. Akzn To Discuss Israel at Hillel Hillel, in conjunction with the Betlh Israel Community Center, will sponsor a talk gy visiting Prof. Benjamin Akzin of Hebrew Uni- versity, in Jerusalem, Israel at 8:30 p.m. tomorrow at the Hillel Foundation. Prof. Akzin will discuss "Present Conditions in Israel," which yVill be followed by an informal discus- sion and coffee hour. Linguistics Talk Prof. Seymour Chatman of Cor- nell University will lecture before the Linguistic Luncheon on "Lam- bert Ten Kate, Linguistic Pioneer" at 12:10 p.m. today in the dining room of the League.

Haber Sees GOP Labor Policy Same EAST LANSING-The change in political administration in Washington is unlikely to produce any major changes in American management-labor relations, said Prof. William Haber, of the eco- nomics department, in a talk yes- terday before the College Person- nel Directors Association meeting at Michigan State College. Any. changes will result instead from economic developments, long in the making, he explained. Two major factors explain the improb- ability of any substantial change in the present labor relations pat- tern. FIRST, the labor shortage has put unions in an "exceedingly f a- vorable" bargaining position, and any decline in defense production that results from a Korean truce will not endanger that position. The second factor is that la- bor unions are in a strong po- sition in our basic industries. Despite "a good number of hys- terical statements from many union officials and others about the effect of the Taft-Hartley Act upon the position of the American unions," the facts in- dicate that unions have not been weakened, he said. Prof. Haber said that he fore- sees no substantial revision in the Taft-Hartley Act. Prof. Haber is chairman of the Division of Social Sciences at the University and, in addition to his teaching experience, has partici- pated in many governmental com- mittees and organizations having to do with labor relations and so- cial problems. He was a member of Mayor Frank Murphy's Unemployment Committee in Detroit in 1930-31, and when Murphy became Gover- nor of Michigan, Haber was ap- pointed to the State Unemploy- ment Commission. Senate Hears Lehman Hit At McCarthy WASHINGTON-()-Sen. Leh- man (D-NY) lashed out at Sen. McCarthy(R-Wis.) in stormy de- bate yesterday and charged that the Senate has been "blackened by a man charged with high mis- demeanors." The New Yorker asserted that McCarthy "has not even had the guts to answer to the Senate and' the American people" in reply to questions raised about McCarthy's finances by a Senate subcommittee last January. MC CARTHY, in turn, told thei Senate that Lehman was "com- pletely unimportant in this body." Lehman angrily retorted: "So long as I have the strength, I'm going to fight McCarthyism." Lehman's blast came after, Mc- Carthy read the Senate a letter of sympathy he said Lehman wrote on Aug. 6, 1948, to Alger Hiss, for- mer State Department official who was then under fire for alleged pro-Communist activity. DECLARING the letter would give the Senate a "better picture' of Lehman, McCarthy quoted the New York senator as having writ- ten Hiss: "Just a line to tell you how much I sympathize with you. I want you to know that I have complete confidence in your loy- alty. You have been treated very badly.' Lehman iater called the Hiss letter "old stuff." He said it had been "trotted out' in 1950 during his campaign for re-election to the Senate. * * * . FURTHERMORE, Lehman said Ile considers a man is "innocent until found guilty." Commenting on McCarthy's re- marks about his letter to Hiss, Lehman told the Senate: "This kind of smear is despic- able." He said McCarthy does not dare to answer the "many ques- tions" raised by a Senate rules subcommittee report about Mc- Carthy's financial affairs. Earlier, McCarthy had charged that Monroney was active in. "fighting those who fight com- munism," and in a new flare-up of their running feud the two senators challenged each other to name a single Communist either of them had got convicted. Polio Serum To Be Given In Marquette MARQUETTE-(iP)-Volunteer doctors, armed with gamma glob- ulin and lollipops, start a three day inoculation program today with the hope that it will check the spread of polio among children in this northern Michigan area. The program, tagged "operation lollipop," will give protection against the crippling effects of infantile paralysis to 10,000 Mar- quette County children, * * * ABOUT 35 doctors will admin- ister the shots and give each child a lollipop. The inoculation program also is an experiment to see whether such treatment will decrease the inci- dence of paralytic polio. Marquette County was select- ed for the experiments because of its high jolio incidence rate. X'he county has had 19 polio cases this year--17 of them re- sulting in paralysis. The scarce gamma globulin to be used in the program was ob- tained from the Office of Defense Mobilization in Washington and from The Michigan State Health Department. Dr. F. S. Leeder, director of the disease control division of the State Health Department, said the program was not a treatment for polio, but was an experiment in preventative measures. Results of similar programs in Sioux City, Iowa, and Huston, proved gamma globulin effective, Dr. Leeder said. -Daily-Lon Qul DING, DONG-Occasional stray bongs are emanating from Bur- ton Tower this week as the steelwork in the carrillon gets a go- ing over with gray paint.

THE BAND IS IN ACTION- HANGS THREE DAYS Human Pendulum Saved from Alpine Drop CHAMONIZ, France-M)-Dar- ing mountaineers rescued the hu- man pendulum of Mont Blanc yesterday. Georges Barbacki was hauled to safety after dangling helplessly over an Alpine chasm at the end of his guide rope for three days and three nights~ THE RESCUE was effected by instructors from the National Ski and Mountain Climbing School at Les Praz, who braved a difficult trail and the constant threat of avalanches to bring the young French university student down from a promontory called the Fool's Needle. The party found Barbacki asleep, slack in the rope and propped against a ledge after long hours of wakefulness over the dizzying chasm. He was brought into Chamonix, Symposium Talks Aired by WUOM In conjunction with the summer symposium on "Popular Arts in America," WUOM-WFUM are re- cording for delayed broadcasts the lectures in the series. At 1 p.m. today the stations will carry a talk on "The Popular Arts and Child Development" by Prof. "Bruno Bettelheim of the Univer- sity of Chicago orthogenetic school. where his condition was described as satisfactory. * * * BARBACKI and a friend, Claude Chulliat, were working their way down the Fool's Needle, a lesser peak, when a driving snow storm hit the mountains. Chulliat, a technician from Reuil, plunged to his death on rocks far below. His skull was 'U' Gets $10,004 For journalism A gift of $10,000 to the Univer- sity as a memorial to Winthrop Burr Chamberlain, an alumnus of the University and a Minneapolis newspaperman for 50 years, was announced yesterday by President Harlan Hatcher. ' The gift, made by Mrs. Cham- berlain, who now lives in Miami Beach, Fla., will be used to estab- lish the Winthrop Burr Chamber- lain Scholarship. Income will be used for an annual award to "wor- thy students in journalism." PROF. WESLEY H. Maurer, journalism department chairman, said: "The Department of Jour- nalism is indeed honored to re- ceive this thoughtful memorial to Winthrop Burr Chamberlain, who for 50 years ably and construc- tively served from reporter to edi- tor of the Minneapolis Journal. Mr. Chamberlain's good name will carry on through the dedicated journalism students the memorial fund is established to help." Mrs. Chamberlain also has given $1,000 to the University chapter of Delta Upsilon Fraternity. The gift will be used to furnish a room in the house as a memorial to Mr. Chamberlain. crushed. His guide rope hung from a snag in the chasm. Barbacki's rope held. It brought him up with a jerk. He bounced against the almost vertical walls of the chasm. But he could not get a hold on either the rope or the walls to climb out. Efforts of other Alpinists in his behalf likewise were fruitless un- til the party from Les Praz took over. 0~ Memorial Scholarship The gift was accepted by John G. Hoad of Ann Arbor, president of the board of directors of the fra- ternity's Alumni Corporation. He said, "The student and alumni chapter are deeply appreciative of this kind gift."

Vegetarian George Bernard Shaw would probably express his inimitable Shavian pleasure at finding his "Arms and the Man" presented in a former soybean mill.

Wigs, beards, mustaches and4 authentic military uniforms of1 the late Nineteenth century will transform the male members of the cast into an assortment of Shavian military men. Director Warren Pickett is cast as Major1 Petkoff, Ed Bordo as Captain Bluntschli and Ted Rancont, Jr. as Nicola. Connie Parker will play Louka. During the years of its operation the Saline Mill produced such var- ied items as soybean paint, steer- ing wheels, Illinois license plates, cattle feed, industrial soybean oil Justice Douglas Gets Divorce BAKER, Ore. - (P) - Mildred Douglas won an uncontested di- vorce yesterday from her husband,1 Supreme Court Justice William O Douglas.f She charged desertion.
