: THRMf Mi'CBIGANT DAILT PAGE -- -.7-- THE MICHIGAN DAJLV PAGE USC Guest Is Opposed The University of South Cali- fornia's commencement ceremon- ies were boycotted by members of the student body -recently. According to the President of USC student government, William Van Aestyne, reaso- for the boy-. cott was disgust over the adminis- tration choice of commencement speaker: Gov. Allan Shivers of Texas. Disappointment over the choice of Gov. Shivers as guest speaker, and accompanying receipt of the customary honorary degree, was expressed unanimously by the sen- ate group of the student body. Senate members voiced their dis- approval of Gov. Shivers' planned appearance on the USC campus because, they said, the Texan has been a harsh-spoken opponent of desegregation. One hundred thirty-six faculty members joined the opposition, and signed a petition backing the students' request for a repeal of the invitation to Gov. Shivers. The administration ignored both ap- peals. Gov. Shivers appeared at the commencement, faced by a group of students picketing the com- mencement site. No violence oc- curred.

America's Lag Recently returned from a meet- ing of the French Physical Chem- ical Society, he attributed the lag to America's head start in the nu- clear reactor field. A promising peacetime use of atomic energy was reported by U' Fresh Air Camp Headed By Win. Morse Unique in the country, the Uni- versity's Fresh Air Camp stimu- lates an interest in the problems of individual and group behavior. Founded thirty-five years ago, the Fresh Air Camp was originally designed to give underprivileged boys an opportunity to spend a, vacation in the country. Since then, however, the camping pro- gram has widened its scope. Con- tent not only with providing a new environment, 'the camp has also recognized its therapeutic poten- tial-understanding and helping the disturbed child in his adjust- ment. Morse Talks Briefly outlining the camping program, Prof. William C. Morse o fthe education school, director of the camp, explained that the camp is equally important to the stu- dent. For those preparing for careers in education, psychology, social work and sociology, the camp pro- vides practical training in dealing with childhood maladjustment. Prof. Morse pointed out that the camp operates for nine weeks dur- ing the University summer session. In that time, students can earn eight hours credit in education, psychology, social work or sociol- 'ogy. During the summer, students serve as camp counselors and at- tend the training seminars. Board, room and tuition are provided by the camp. Emphasizing the practical value of the camp, Morse commented that "it activates an appreciation of the .society we live in." He pointed out that most people seem to connect the camp only with "Tag Day" and are unaware of its actual functioning.
