Eisenhower again surely in the race for a second term, political realists see a reawakened interest in the fight for control of the Sen- ate this November. Senatorial elections are always important. Ordinarily their signi- ficance is overshadowed heavily by the contest for the presidency. Assuming no further medical bul- letins from the White House, how- ever, the general public this year is apt to consider the result of the presidential contest foreordained, which will cause no great sorrow among Republicans but probably will make for a presidential elec- tion less exciting than usual. Without a spellbinding presi- dential battle, the Senate races are likely to emerge into the na- tional political limelight. Ending Terms The Democrats will enter the Senate battle with a two-seat ma- jority of 49 to 47 and with 17 seats at stake, seven of them in the South. Terms of 17 Republican senators also end this year. Senators are elected for six- year terms and the terms are staggered so one-third of the total of 96 come up for re-election ev- ery two years. This year there are two extra races, one in Kentucky, caused by the death of Sen. Alben W. Barkley, and the other in West Virginia, the result of lhe death of Sen. Harley M. Kilgore. Strategists for both parties have come to separate decisions that control of the first session of the 85th Congress is likely to be de- cided in 11 states. This doesn't mean they are ignoring other races, but they feel their chancesJ for picking up seats are best in1 these states. Neither party, of 'U' Prepares Social Work Leaders Preparation of persons for lead- ership positions in the social wel- fare field, particularly for teaching, research and administrative posts, will be the objective of a new program announced yesterday by the University. The new program will be made possible by a $250,000 grant from the Russell Sage Foundation of New York City. The grant is to be spent over the next five years. Details on the program were an- nounced by President Harlan Hatcher following acceptance by the Regents of the first-year's grant from the foundation. The grant will permit develop- ment of a program of advanced training leading to a doctoral de- gree in social work and a social science. It also will be used to support research on problems of policy and practice in several areas of social welfare. President Hatcher said early research activ- ity is planned in the area of social security and public assistance, cor- rectional treatment for juvenile and adult offenders, and child wel- fare. Approximately half of the grant will be administered by the School of Social Work and make possible the addition of two new faculty members with social science train- ing to that School. The other half will be adminis- tered by the Horace H. .ackham Graduate School to provide funds for student fellowships and for faculty research. The doctoral training program will be made up of approximately an equal amount of work in the School of Social Work and a social science depart- ment. With the launching of the new interdepartmental degree program the University will become one of 12 universities in the United States offering doctoral training for social work. . In commenting on the new pro-1 gram, F. F. Fauri,.dean of Univer- sity School of Social Work, pointed out that there are: over 600 full- time teaching positions in gradu- ate schools, of social work, plus several hundred research positionsl in governmental and voluntary so- cial welfare agencies for which training beyond the masters degree level is becoming increasingly im- portant. 'Law Review' Discusses Social Science in Court Governor Opens Talks On Waterfall _ { course, will publicly admit the possibility of losing any seats. To Republican's eyes, the Demo- crats are most vulnerable in Ken- tucky, Oregon, Nevada, New York and West Virginia. Democratic strategists plan to direct their heaviest fire toward Republican incumbents in Colorado, Connec- ticut, Indiana, Illinois, Maryland and Ohio. One cause of Republican optim- ism in New York is doubt as to whether Sen. Herbert Lehman (D-Lib) will try for another term. He is now 78 and would be 84 at the end of another tour of Senate duty. GOP hopes in Kentucky got a big boost from former Sen. John Sherman Cooper's announcement that he will campaign against Democrat Lawrence Wetherby for the seat made vacant by Barkley's death. Cooper's chances of beating Wetherby are held better than Thurston Morton's chances of de- feating the Democratic incumbent, Sen. Earle Clements, in a second Kentucky contest. Morse and McKay In Oregon, Republicans are ;w- ing all out to unseat Sen. Wayne Morse, once a Republican but now a Democrat, with former Interior Secretary Douglas McKay. In Nevada, they think they can beat Democrat Sen. Alan Bible, who has reconsidered a previous de- cision to step out. In West Vir- Ackerman Attends Belgium Gathering University epidemiologist Dr. Wilbur Ackerman is this week at- tending the International Physi- ological conference in Brussels, Belgium. He will deliver a paper entitled "Transmittable Properties Induced in Human Cells by Viral Experi- ence." Following a meeting of the Tis- sue Culture Association at the University of Colorado, Dr. Acker- man went directly to Europe. At Colorado he was one of a special' group responsible for teaching courses in tissue culture. Court cases involving everything from soda pop to school segrega- tion have felt the impact of ex- pert testimony by social scientists, and their influence will probably become more widespread in the future, according to an article in the current University Law Re- view. Written by Jack Greenberg, as- sistant counsel for the National Associatalon for the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP) Legal Defense and Educational Fund, the article notes that "The rela- tive infrequency of social science testimony in general has been due to unawarness it can be useful." "More and more lawyers must produce facts bearing on issues that concern the public," Green- berg asserts. "They must estab- lish what the public thinks, or how it will react, or the effect of social conditions on large groups of people." Social science testi- mony can help them achieve this objective. Bibleo, Peep Shows In addition: to segregation cases, Greenberg notes that social sci- ence testimony has been used to establish relevant facts where free Bibles were distributed by public schools, to determine social and p s y c h olog i c al pressures against those declining to accept Bibles; peep-show movies were declared obscene, to show how the film in question might rouse base emotions in normal adults; "sav- ings" was used in bank advertis- ing, to determine public reactions to this word. Public opinion analysts. are the social'scientists who have testified most frequently, Greenberg notes, and the courts are growing more liberal in allowing their findings to be used in deciding cases. The principal problems encoun- tered in legal use of opinion polls, according to Greenberg, are the expense and the difficulty of get- ting all those who conducted the interviews to testify. All Relevant Knowledge Stating that pollsters and other social science experts should not have unlimited influence in the Charge Pillon i ginia, a reorganization of the par- ty lineup has given GOP strate- gists hopes of unseating Democrat William C. Marland with former Sen. Chapman Revercomb in the race to fill the seat held by the late Sen. Kilgore. The Democrats now believe Gov. Frank J. Lausche has a better than even chance of beating in- cumbent Republican Sen. George Bender in Ohio. Democratic chan- ces in Connecticut got at least tacit recognition from the Repub- licans when they named Sen. Prescott Bush as chairman of the national convention platform committee. This was an obvious move to aid Bush in what looks like a close race. The illness of Sen. Eugene Milli- kin, Republican of Colorado, has increased Democrat chances in that state and the party is betting heavily on farm dissatisfaction in efforts to unseat Republican Sens. Homer Capehart and Everett Dirksen in Indiana and Illinois. With former Sen. Millard Tydings as their nominee, the Democrats also believe they may push out Re- publican Sen. John Marshall But- ler in Maryland.

Pillon, a candidate for the .te- publican nomination to Congress in Detroit's 17th district, with Wklure to file in income tax re- turn for 1064. The indictment returned before Federal Judge Ralph M. Freeman said Pillon received $12,800 in 1954 from the Youngblood Jensen Co., plumbing contractors, of which he was vice president, just before the firm went bankrupt. Assistant U. S. Attorney Robert E. Demascio (D, M) said Pillon claimed the money was for, legal fees but failed to file a tax return covering the amount. Pillon, an attorney, has been an unsuccessful Republican candi- date for Congress in the last two campaigns. He also has run for city treasurer, county auditor and the legislature. .The Michigan primary is Tues- day, Aug. 7.
