I r Volume 34 Number 5 CENTRAL MICHIGAN UNIVERSITY Mt. Pleasant, Michigan September, 1964 The President's Poge- "F lEX I B I liT y" A RECENT NUMBER of one of my professional journals dealing with construction for educational institutions stressed on page after page the desirability of FLEXIBILITY in connection with design, construction and use. Multi-purpose rooms that make for economy of space and maximum use is the result. All this is for greater efficiency and lower costs. As I read on, my thoughts kept going to the equally important item of the need for flexibility in the curriculum to meet the many rapid changes and the va riations in the interests, needs and abilities of our students and their even more varied backgrounds and learning rates. Finally my wandering reflections raised the same question of the even greater need for flexibility in those who direct the educational process. How prone we are to keep the old viewpoints, illustrat ions and applications. Of course, it is work to keep abreast of the times, sorting out the small increment of new knowledge and new process or new approach that will fit into our specific area. But how important! Socrates once stated, "We would not know what justice is were it not for injustice." So from time to time we need to get out of our routines and locale and see or hear or experience things quite different from our day by day tasks. Reading will help - not just the same kind of reading but a new set of papers or magazines or books. Travel will help - but not just the same places or vacation spots year after year. It was my great fortune to be chosen as one of fifteen college presidents to visit the higher educational institutions of Pakistan last spring. The vi sit was under the auspices of the U.S. Department of State and the American Association of Colleges for Teacher Education. To I ive for four weeks in a newly emerging country furnished not only an interesting experience but provided suff icient contrast and background to give the effect Socrates advoca ted . .-/ Fifteen e duca tors including Dr. Fou. t a. they arrive in lahore, Pakistan March 16. 1964. Pakistan is the fifth largest country in population. Since its independence in 1947, it has had a population change of Hindus moving out and Muslims moving in of about 10,000,000 people. With a large annual unfavorable trade balance, Pakistan has had to gear to a change from a rural farming economy to a manufacturing one. Many power dams are being built and there is more irrigation there than in all the other countries of the world combined. It now has the world's largest jute mills. It has had to spend large sums on military preparedness. Separated into two parts over 1000 miles apart with two major Pa ge Two languages besides English in the schools, its internal national organization has been slow. With eighty-five percent of the people illiterate and with only one-thirteenth of one percent of those of college age in colleges and universities the need to speed up free public education is clearly seen but hard to attain with the poverty, lack of teachers and many critical needs competing for every dollar. .. >1 ' . ,. Sonsak Teng and his siste r, Le na, in Bangkok, Thailand, showing Dr. Foust the temples of the city. The stigm~ of work has held back the practical arts in the sC.hool CUrriculum .and hence in the national economy. On ly now In a few experimental schools can one find a comprehensive high school with work in commerce home economics, agricultu.re, indust~ial arts and physical ed~cation . The need for architects, eng l~eers and technica l assistants is being met by funds fr?m outSide the country and by foreign staff planning and bUilding the physical layout and curriculum for theSe programs. Even then teachers of technica l areas to staff thOSe facilities are all too scarce. But they are on the move and being pushed by necessity to solve their problems. I came away with several deep impressions: 1. By comparison, I believe we have no real problems at home. 2. ~akistan and other emerging nations need our help In developing th~ir leadership. Anything we can do bY way of exchanging professors or scholarships to helP thel r young men and women study here and then return . home will be a great contribution. Central haS and IS continuing to assist a number of students frorTl developing countries to come here for advanced study, 3. Then we should know more about these nations.

Central Michigan University is flexible with respect to thiS problem although somewhat delayed. We should be aware of the need to be flexible with respect to many other current problems in our field of work. Judson W.

Prelimin ary indications point to the largest Homecoming celebration i n the history of t he University. Among the specific attractions for alumn i will b e special honors for the Class of 1939 on t h e occasion of its 25th anniversary reunion; the classes 1953 th rou gh 1963 (all 8,000 of them) in t he decade spotlight reunion group; and the recognition of several faculty members for yea r s of outstanding service to the University and its students. Special recognition will be g i v e n Dr. Clean C. Rich t meyer, Dean of the School of Arts and Sciences, who in 1924 - 40 years ago - joined Wilbur Moore Charles Anspach the mathematics faculty at Central ; to P resident Emeritus Charles L. Anspach, who became Central's fifth president in 1939 - 25 years ago; to Vice Pre s i d e n t Wilbur E.

Osborn, P rofessor of Psychology, both of whom also completed 25 years of ou tstanding service to the University th is year. This distinguished group of faculty members will be saluted at the all- . University coffee hour in the University Cent e r Ballroom I immediately followin g the Sat urday afternoon football gam e and again at the Alumni-Silver C John Osborn C 1 u b Banquet Saturday evening in the East F ood Commons. Members of the Class of 1939 will also be singled ou t for honors and membership in the Silver C Club at the Alumni Ban que t Saturday n ight. A full weekend of reunion activities is in store for this class. General Chairman for the 1939 Class Reunion is Carlo Barberi, past president of the National CMU Alumni Association and Mt. Pleasant Public Schools Superintendent. The largest group of alumn i yet to assemble under the socalled decade reunion plan initiated at CMU in 1956, will return this year as the decade spotlight is focused on the classes of the years 1953 through 1963. A committee of '53-'63 alumni has been h a r d at work planning for this big occasion and among a multitude of outstanding features will be the '53-'63 Buffet Supper-a comeas- you-are affair - which will be spread in the University Center Cafeteria at the nominal price of $1 .50 per person immediately follow ing the Saturday afternoon foot ball game. There will be special reunion headquarters for alumni in the University Center, a reserved sea tin g section at Alumni Field, two off-campus Alumni Dances Sat u r day night, one at the Mt. Pleasant (Continued on Page 4) Page Three Homecoming-- (Continued from Page 3) Elks Club, featuring the Jazz Era Mus i cia n s (who will "Jam" Friday evening at the University Center) and the other at the Hotel Chieftain. Alumni are urged to make advance reservations for the '53-'63 Buffet (at $1.50 per person) or the Silver C Banquet (at $3.00 per person) and for reserved seats at the Saturday afternoon football game with Western Illinois University (at $2.00 per person) . All of these alumni activities and honors w ill be spread against the beautiful backdrop of the CMU campus in mid-October and the 1964 Homecoming theme, "THAT WAS tHE YEAR T HAT WAS" which will come to life in the Homecoming Parade of floats, the Residence Hall decorations and in the decor of other activities of the week end. Many former students who have not been on campus for several years will be pleased and surprised by the growth in buildings, student body size and curriculum of the University. Of special interest this year will be the new Kendall P . Brooks Hall of Science, the newest campus classroom building w h i c h opened this Fall and is larger than Warriner Hall. A complete array of coffee hours, reunions, teas, 0 pen houses, an art exhibit and other activities, are planned by s c h 0 0 Is, departments and campus organizations, man y of which are outlined in the Preliminary Hom e com i n g Schedule printed elsewhere in this issue. Alumni are requested to use the enclosed reservation form (see page 15) for making advance reservations for affairs at this, CMU's 41st Hom ecoming, thereby making 1964 "THE YEAR THAT REALLY WAS!" Phys. Ed. Convention Set lor November The 1964 Annual Convention of the Michigan Association of Health, Physical Education and Recreation will be in session at the Pantlind Hotel, Grand Rapids, November 12, 13 and 14.

Page Four Central's "Woot/y" Smith Chosen 1965 Michigan Week Chairman By Howard R. Sommer Director, Center for Economic Expansion W. C. "Woody" Smith has been selected by the Greater Michigan Foundation to serve &s General Chairman of Michigan Week, 1965. This is a great honor for Woody and brings much credit to Central Michigan University not only because Woody is Vice President of Public Services at the Unive rsity but also because this is the .first time an educator has bee n selected to head s u chan outstanding body of citizens. Michigan is the only state which designates one wee k each year for its citizens to take an inventory of the state and to let the nation and the world know abo u t its resources and accomplishments. Michigan Week, 1965, will mark the twelfth year of this celebration and many activities are planned to focus attention on the greatness of the state. In selecting the 1965 General Chairman, the Greater Michigan Foundation, an organization made up of civic, business, agriculture and labor leaders, wanted a person who had the executive and administrative ability to organize and guide a vast. voluntary organization havmg a sincere interest and pride in Michigan. Woody was selected as 1965 General Chairman because of his dedication to Michigan and to the objectives of Michigan Week. He has served Michigan Week in the past as; Reg ion a 1 Chairman, Organizational and Program Chairman, and for two years as Deputy G e n era 1 Chairman. He is known in all corners of Michigan among people who are leaders in industry, business, agriculture, banking and labor. He is also known as a progressive educator on Michigan college and university campuses and in the legislative and congressional halls. The objectives of Michigan Week are: to expound the state's assets and resources for industry, business, education, and recreation, and to afford the nation and the world an inspired vie w of Michigan's advantages; to give Michigan's citizens greater knowledge and w. C. SMITH appreciation of their s tat e ; and, to foster a spirit of cooperation among all communities and people to the end that all of Michigan will work together to make the state even more liveable and attractive. As General Chairman, Woody has already put his basic organization together and his key chairmen will soon have their committees organized. Their goal is to have 10,000 interested people working to m a k e Michigan Wee k, 1965, the greatest ever. The Greater M i chi g a n Foundation recently approved Woody's suggestion that Michigan should be known world wide, and the most appropriate theme for 1965 would be - "Michigan - Dynamic i n World Progress." His argument was that we are today facing an open economy and it is time that Michigan put forth all of its talents to see that our business and industry enjoys the fruits of foreig~ markets. He indicated t h a Michigan business is confron\ ed today wit h the greates competitive challenge it ha~ faced in many decades, an Michigan citizens representing industry, business, agriculturei labor, and education m US realize the opportunities a~~ cope with the problems thil exist in world trade. Woody was born and reared in Mecosta County. His earlY education took place in a one room rural school. He gradllb ated from Big Rapids Big. School in 1923 and received bls Life Teaching Certificate fr~r!1 Eastern Michigan UniversJtY in 1927, a Baccalaureate degree from Central Michigan Univeri sity in 1931, and a Master Of Arts degree from University 0 Michigan in 1940. Woody h~S served as a teacher and princ~; pal in Michigan public schoO _ and was appointed to the fa~ ulty of Central Michigan vnl: '.'ersity in 1942 as an inst~UC tor in history and education: In 1946 he became Directo~ of Field Services and in .195 t was appointed Vice Preslde~1 of Pub I i c Services. In 19 Woody received an Honorar1 Doctor of Science Degree fro~ Ferris State College in Bl Rapids. bi Woody is a member of PIDelta Kappa, Phi Kappa D~ e ta, Alpha Phi Gamma, t Rotary Club of Mount PleaSant, the Mount Pleasant Cha~ber of Commerce, the MiCh;': gan Higher Education AuthO r ity, and serves as a Directo\( of the Exchange Savings B~nt_ of Mount Pleasant. He is h~d_ ed in Who's Who in the Ml West. New CMU Centrex Telephone System Allows Direct Dialing Across Campus, City By William J. langeland Mt. Pleasant District Manager General Telephone On August 15, 1964 Central Michigan University took ano. ther step forward on its expansion program with the installatIon of a complete new telephone system. The new system known as "Gentrex" was made possible through joint efforts of both CMU and the General Telephone Company of Michigan. J Plans for the installation of the new system started in une, 1963 with the ordering of the necessary cable, telePhones, and switching equipment and represents an expenditUre of $500,000 by the General Telephone Company. The equipment has been housed in a special room provided by the University and distributing cables were placed in the S1eam tunnels to provide facilities for all administrative offices, c h assrooms, and student dormitories. Nearly 1700 telephones ad to be installed to provide CMU with its unique comll1unications system. . Administrative offices, classrooms, and students living I~ dormitories are now able to call anywhere on campus by dla.1ing four digits and it is no longer necessary to go through SWitchboard operators to make any calls. Local calls to places l'ft' campus can be made by dialing the seven digits of the Isted number in the Mt. Pleasant telephone directory. . Another feature of the system is that every telephone is Installed as a private line. This will enable students in the dormitories to receive calls in their rooms without interference from other parties. Student originated long distance t ChaUs will be placed through the long distance operator and e calls must be made on a toll credit card or a "collect baSis". The toll credit card would be for their home tele-b Pho.ne. These can be obtained by contacting the telephone USlness office in their home town. StUdents are encouraged to notify those at home and their close friends what their new telephone number is. Post cards are being supplied for this. Students will know their ~elePhone number as soon as they have registered and dormitory room assignments have been made. . The University Press is in the process of publishing a directory that will contain faculty, staff, and student tele- ~\len full and part time telephone operators are required for the new Mle~hone system at Central. Left to right in the Turret Room are Freda G uli lns; William Langeland, general telephone area. m~nager; ~nd Ma~y Lou 1 Olney, Centrex Supervisor. A remote control unot IS ~Iso In. use In the Urret Room by which all campus cars and the security offIce may be reached in case of emergency. phone numbers. These will be available shortly after the start of the fall semester. Information operators will also know the administrative or student's telephone numbers, and transfer incoming calls. The university has employed eight operators to provide this service and they will be on duty twenty hours a day, seven days a week. The information operators can be reached by dialing 9 from telephones on campus or 774-3151 from telephones off campus. General Telephone Company is proud to say that this type of installation is the first one that the General System has installed and also thanks the officials of the University for making this possible. As CMU grows, so will General Telephone and plans for additions to the new system are already being scheduled. Mr. Langeland explains to Mrs. Gosney, Centrex Supervisor, just how the half million dollar installation operates.

SMITH, Vice President • IRWIN CAMPBElL, Editor Page Five Chippewas Schedule Four Home Games; Will Play Western Illinois At Homecoming For Central football fans, the home schedule of the grid Chippewas this fall is probably the most attractive the school has ever presented from all points of view. The four home games inc 1 u d e top-notch attractions and they occur on four consecutive Saturdays, all in October. Highlighting the four-game stand is the Oct. 17 Homecoming date with Interstate Conference title hopeful Western Illinois at 2 p.m. That game follows the Northern Michigan game on Oct. 10 which is Dad's Day. On October 24, Central hosts Illinois State in the Band DayWurtsmith Air Force B as e Day attraction and the home stand concludes with the Oct. 31 Youngstown battle which has bee n designated Safely Patrol Day. All the gam e s start at 1 :30 p.m. Coach Bill Kelly's team posted a 13-7 opening win in the Red Feather Game in Saginaw before some 8,600 fans, then drew an open date before l'oad ventures to We s t ern Michigan and Eastern Illinois. The home stand will be followed by road dates to Northern Illinois and Hillsdale in winding up another challenging slate for the CMU gridders. In the Red Feather opener against Wisconsin State, halfback Bruce Wyman churned for 164 yards in 13 carries for a 12.6 yards per carry average. A 5-10, 200-pound sen i 0 r from Constantine, Wyman also plays a heady, aggressive defensive gam e as one of abo uta half-dozen accomplished two-way players on the Chip unit. Saginaw j un i 0 r Pat Boyd has stepped into the quarterback spot and the 5-8, 175- pounder has shown a strong arm and pinpoint accuracy in early drills. Central has some size in the line, but the depth is lacking. Kelly has been us i n g 240- pound senior t a c k I e Glenn Foldie on both offense and defense. Frank Goldberg, a Little All-American Fourth Tea m pick last year, also goes two ways, doing offensive end and Page Six defensive middle linebacker duties. Drawing much early praise has been the work of middle guard Ken Bickel, a sturdy, 5-10 and 200 pounds. He's the defensive signal-caller and can also play offense if necessar}'. Junior tailback Jamie Gent looks like ago 0 d receiving threat on offense and can also play in the defensive secondary where he has inter cepted nint: pa s s e s in two years. His older brother, Pete, a Michigan State basketballer for three years, has stu c k with the Dallas Cowboys at end and defensive back, despite not playing any college football. Central has been ranked as a tri-favorite in the HAC race, but the league may be so even that no tea m will go through its league schedule unbeaten. Northern Illinois and Western Illinois have strong defensive units and Western has a veteran backfield. Eastern Illinois has the league's premier passer in Roger Haberer and Illinois State will be tough if the young players com e through. Halfback Bruce Wyman, a crunching runner, racked up 164 yards in 13 carries in the season opener.

Athletic Staff Central Michigan's athletic staff added two new faces this fall. Joining the staff as fresh man football coach and assistant track coach was Bill Odykirk, a 1959 Central graduate who has coached at Warren Fitzgerald and Royal Oak Kimball since he earned his bachelor's degree. On the staff as a full-time director of intra-murals is Tom Jones, a 1963 University 0 f Michigan grad who earned his master's degree at Pittsburgh and was full-time director of the Pitt intra-mural program as a graduate assistant there. Both are Michigan natives Odykirk from Flint and Jone~ from Sand Creek. E a chis married, the Odykirks having three sons, while the Joneses have no children. Both men have teaching assignments within the department in addition to the i r sports duties. Cross-Country Central's cross-country team once again under the direc~ tion of Coach Lyle Bennett faces a rigorous schedule with a handful of veterans returning for another season. Sophomore Roger Haines the top man on last year'~ team in a brilliant freshman season, again should be the team leader, but he will be pushed by juniors Ed Davis and Steve Gosnell and sophomore Jim Livingston. Senior Jim Crawford lends experience and could be in for a top season. Another handful of neWcomers from last year's freshman and reserve ranks figures to bolster the squad that will be seeking to improve oIl last year's disappointing fifthplace finish in the five-team Interstate Conference M e e t after a satisfying 4-2 dualmeet season. Central also won the State NAIA Meet and will be hosting that event as well as the Conference Championships iIl November. Bennett will run his freshman squad as a separate eIl-try this fall as the Interstate Conference has ruled all freshman athletes out of varsity sports this year. The yearliIlg squad will h a v e its oWIl schedule.

C. Bovee, vice President 0 f business and finance. The Science Building, the first classroom structure to be bUilt here sin c e Rowe Hall was completed in 1958, houses t he departments of biology, chemistry_ and physics, geograPhy, mathematics, and physical sci e n c e. These departtnents, along with faculty offices, have bee n located in Grawn Hall. Plans now call for Grawn liaU to be used as a general classroom building t his setnester, according to B 0 vee. Classes and offices from several departments will use the l·?orns in their present condition, he said. . The remodeling of Grawn lncludes a $600,000 building <lddition. Aft e r remodeling, the building will be used by ~he School of Business AdminIstration. Bid s for the retnodeling job will be out by January. The act u a 1 remodeling is scheduled to begin during the Spring semester. Central offiCI~ ls hope that the building ~h' IU be partially completed by e fall of 1965 and completely l"e-done by February of 1966. Long-range plans call for the present Business Adminis~ ration Building to become the orne of the speech and Dra~ a department. That build~ ng will also be remodeled beOre the c han g e is made. ~peech and Drama is currenty housed in Warriner Hall. Building plans also call for L~ eXpansion of the Central Ibrary and for a new series Of dormitories, scheduled for ~Onstruction during the next t "'e years. Planning is already s arted for two of these resi~ ent halls. They will be ready Or bids about January. The number of mar r i e d hOUsing units will also be in~ reased when the construction Is completed on a new 16- bP~rtrnent married h 0 u sin g rUllding. Bids for construc- Ion will begin about January. By Russell l. Herron Assistant Instructor, Information Services Construction is due to begin soon on a new classroom building, the first of two such structures planned for the not too distant future. The first class room building will house, among other departments, the Departments 0 f Journalism and Information Services and Educational Television. All three are now located in the temporary buildings west of the University Center. Bids will be accepted this fall on ~he other $2.75 million classroom building. Central officials are anticipating an $80,000 to $100,000 addition to the West F 0 0 d Commons. With this addition, they plan to expand the bake ~hop . Present plans also call for a $180,000 addition to the University Center. The addition will provide the present Center with an auditorium. Quite an exrtensive maintenance program was carried on in CMU residence halls this summer. The program included the replacing of mattresses, lounge furniture, and 0 the r equipment. Central's original Science Building, named in honor of Charles T. Grawn, University President from 1900 until 1918, was built in 1915. At that time the s c h 00 I enrollment was about 450. The Business Administration Building, which was Ofiginally called the college elementary building, was built on .the site of the old Training School which was destroy ·ed by fire in 1934. KENDALL P. BROOKS HALL -- SCIENCE The new science building provides faculty offices, class rooms, and laboratories for the follow ing departments: biology, chemistry and physics, geography, mathematics, and physical science .

Page Eight The DePuys Donate Old Pictures to CMU Pictures of Mount Pleasant during the early years of the 19th century have been added to the Centennial display at the Clarke Historical Library at CMU and were on display there throughout the Centennial. The pictures, most of which were taken between 1910 and 1917, we r e donated to the Clarke l...ibrary by Mr. and Mrs. George DePuy of Mount Pleasant. The y include pictures of man y city residents during their elementary school and Boy Scout days, pictures of schools, homes, an early Mount Pleasant barn raising, and downtown scenes (including one of the old Gover Store on Broadway). School scenes include class pictures from the old Crowley School in 1911, Maple Street School in 1914 and Fancher School in 1917. A picture of the M 0 u n t Pleasant Boy Scouts of 1916- 17 vintage includes Scouts Joe Rush, George DePuy, I van Cole, Fred Hersee, Philip Johnson, Bernard Woodruff, Eldon MacMacken, M 0 r g a n Tice, leader Floyd Ferguson and others. Fellowships Awarded Three CMU Students Three Central Michigan University graduate students have been awarded Mott Foundation Fellowships in the InterUniversity Clinical Preparation Program for Educational Leadership in Flint. The three, Guy G. Bailey (Carsonville), Roland G. Frank (Ferndale) and Barry F. Jacobsen (Welkom, Republic of S. Africa), are among some 54 educators chosen from a field of 300 for the coveted awards. Each of the three Central students plus two other students still to be assigned to Central will receive $5,000 fellowships while the y complete work on their Master's Degrees. Thailand Student Here On CMU Scholarship A 28-year-old graduate student from Thailand enrolled at CMU, becoming the first student from Central's affiliated school in Bangkok to enroll here. Kitti Charanyananda, a graduate of Prasarn Mitr College, will work toward a master's degree in education at Central before returning to his country to teach at the end of next summer. He enrolled at Central as a result of a six-year program of international affiliation between CMU and Prasarn Mitr, a teacher education college. The program, sponsored in part by the U.S. Department of State, provides for the exchange of ideas and materials between 40 United States colleges and 40 schools scattered throughout the world.

Clarke Library Stresses State Lore, History The Clarke Historical Library, located in the m a i n Lib r a r y Building, contains books, pamphlets, newspapers, magazines, maps, pictures a~d manuscripts related to the hIStory of the Old Northwest Territory, with emphasis upon the history of Michigan. Included in the collection are valuable works of Mark Twain and so me valuable Lincoln materials. One of the donations this past year is a collection of 100,000 pieces of manuscript material belongmg to Amos Gould, a prominent Owosso attorney from 1843 to 1882. According to J 0 h n Cumming, director of the. Clarke Historical Library, thIS donation is "without a doubt one of the most complete collections of family and business papers abo u t 19th century Michigan that has been preserved." Another exhibit is a collection of letters written by a Grand Rapids soldier to his wife during the Civil War. The original collection was assembled by Dr. Norman E. Clarke, a Central alumnus, and was contributed to the university i n 1955. M <l: n y items have been added sl~ce that time by means of gIfts and purchases. The Clarke Historical Collection is open to individuals doing research in the history of the area covered in the collection. Requests may be made to Cumming aft e r all secondary sources have been examined by the researcher. CMU "Life" Takes "first" Second Time Life has been named Michigan's b est weekly collegiate newspaper for two straight years by the Michigan Collegiate Press Association. Three-Step Program Underway- New Director Named For CMU Healtll Service By C. Milton Pike, Jr. Dean, Student Personnel Services Central is presently in the middle of a three-step program which will result in more comprehensive service to the student body by the Student Health Service. Mt. 'Pleasant's Davis Clinic has been selected, under a contractual agreement wit h the University, to sup ply physician coverage and medical supervision of the Central Michigan University Student He a 1 t h Service. Dr. John Wood of the Davis Clinic has been designated as the new Director of the Student Health Service. Physicians associated with the Davis Clinic will rotate their services to the Health Service Monday through Friday and on Saturday mornings. In addition, they will be available for weekend and emergency medical needs. The Davis Clinic has expanded its staff and, as soon as possible, another full-time Keith Decker Heads University Senate Keith Decker, geography, is chairman of the University Senate for the current school year. Decker was elected in June at the first meeting of the Senate since it was reorganized under a new constitution adopted late last spring. The new constitution called for revision of the met hod of selecting faculty and administrative representation on the legislative body. Officers serving with Decker this year will be Elbert Bowen, speech, vice chairman, and Olaf Steg, dean of fine and applied arts, secretary. Donald Kilbourn, personnel, and Helen Lohr, home economics are members of the executive board. Decker served the University Senate as chairman of the constitutional revision committee during the two years the new document was being revised. physician with general practitioner qualifications will be added to work full-time at the Health Service thus doubling the former professional staff available for this purpose. Essentially the sam e nursing staff of five full-time nurses will be continuing for the coming year. The objective of the Health Service is to provide a general program of diagnostic medical service as well as infirmary care, isolation facilities and certain laboratory procedures. Major illnesses and surgery are not undertaken by the Health Service but are a personal responsibility of each student as needed. Thus the Health Service acts as a supplement to medical procedures undertaken by family physicians and those usually covered through family or student health insurance. The new program is considered to be unique in that it will offer a quality program by both general practitioner and specialist physicians. The contractual arrangement is felt to provide a quality of medicine not usually found on University campuses of this size. How Large Is Central's Campus? How large is C e n t r a 1 in terms of buildings, worth and acres? The campus takes in over 300 acres, shaped generally in rectangular form run n i n g north and south. In addition, the University owns 176 acres of forest located about 25 miles north of the main campus and near Farwell. The land, the Neithercut Woodlands, was donated to Central several years ago by an alumnus and is used primarily as a botany and bi<, logy laboratory. Central also owns 45 acres of land at Beaver Island. The center there is used mainly for various types of off-campus instruction. The main campus consists of some 60 buildings with several more either under construction Or in the planning stages. Value of the physical plant is estimated at about $45 million. Page Nine l1. DON.

The stations, channel 5 at Bay City, 12 at Flint, 9 at Cadillac and 10 at the Sault, have provided time from the educational broadcasts for the last five years, thus, according to Lew Rhodes, CMETV director, making a "fine contribution to Michigan schools." Each station contributes five h 0 u r s each week. From a beginning in 1959- 60 with 14 p a l' tic i pat i n g school systems, the Council now reaches more than 200 schools. Classes have increased from 3 to 16. More than 4,000 classrooms are reached by the broadcasts. The television stations' pledge of time for this school year has permitted the schedule of classes for the new season to be confirmed. With the 1964-65 season the Council, with studios at Central Michigan University, will take the first step toward what it is hoped will eventually be a state-wide instructional net-work. The Council will share with the Classroom 10 Television Council in Lansing cer; tain courses which in the pas were duplicated in their respective schedules. With the cooperation of the two Cou~cils, the broadcast classes Wl.Il cover the area from the OhiO border to the top of the upper peninsula. Rhodes say·s, "we hope to provide a better service this way." CMETV is run by school administrators u n d era board. Rhodes calls the 0 per a t i O.ll "unique in the state and III m 0 s t of the count.ry. The strength of our Council has always been the close control bY its member schools. The oPeration is designed to serve the schools and is run by the schools. We try to reflect thel !' needs." . s Classes included on t hid year's schedule are art all music for lower elementar1 grades; art, m u sic, scieIlC~' physical education and Mich{; gan social studies for midd. elementary grades', art , mUSICII, science, Spanish I and model' _ mathematics for upper elem~Ilr tary grades; science for jUIlIO high school; American historY; government and economics fO high school.

Each moment, a recurrence, each moment, a, prescience, thus, for each of us, many HAPPY RETURNS of this, our Golden C day." lIa Leone Arnold Baier, Hudson, Michigan. "Thanks again for the kind invitation to the Golden C banquet. I am sorry I will not be able to attend. Mr. Mills and I have been married nearly 48 years and though we have no children of our own, I have taught several during my 22 years of teaching." Zelia W. Mills, Coleman, Michigan.

Marion Colby McCrory, South Lyon, Michigan. "My very best wishes go to all my classmates. Time has made many changes in all of us and also in CMU.

My last day as a teacher was October 1918 and in November the same year I was admitted to Michigan Statl!' Sanatorium as a patient. I began working in the office part time the' following year where I remained until my retirement in 1955. I thoroughly enjoyed working at the sanatorium in Howell . The work was very interesting. Both President Warriner and Miss Ronan wrote to me regarding Central students who were admitted to the hospital as patients, so that I could visit them and be helpful to them. Church and Sunday School have always been dear to me." Nett ie E. Miller, Spring Lake, Michigan. "I regret that I cannot attend the class reunion. Following the death of my husband I returned to Central and earned my B.S. degree in home economics in 1937, then to Roseville where I taught for" 19 years. In June 1956 I retired to my home here and have enjoyed retirement to the full . My kindest regards to aiL" Grace Will Easton, Elk Rapids" Michigan.

Pleasant, Michigan Dear Sirs: Since my graduation from Central I have appreciated receiving The Centralight, ~lthough delivery has been .10- termittent due to my chang10g and far-flung addresses. When I was in Asia during World War II I had no idea that I would ever return to this part of the world. Since 1950 I have been on the faculty ?f Teachers College, ColumbIa University and six of tho s e years have been spent w.lth my family living and workmg in Afghanistan, Lebanon, a,nd now India. In fact, our thIrd child, an afterthought! was born here in New DelhI seven months ago. Needl.es.s to say, we have enjoyed hv10g overseas. I feel we have benefited from coming t 0 understan~ something of 0 the r people s lives values and aspIratIons. Most important in the Ion g run, possibly, is the chang.ed and deepened perspectIve hving overseas gives a person as to his own country and cul-ture. . t In India as in AfghanIS an, I worked' as a member of a Teachers College Team (und~r contract with the U.S. technIcal assistance program) which serves as advisors to the local ROTC No Longer Compulsory; Schmaltz Heads Department Compulsory participation in the Central Michigan University Reserve Officers Training Corps (ROTC) program has bee n discontinued, effective this fall semester, 1964, and the program is now offered strictly on an elective or voluntary basis. In the spring of 1963, the University changed the originally adopted two-year requirement to a one-year program. A principal reason for the change at that time was the lack of classroom space. Following the University's announcement of the change to a one-year program, President Foust received a letter from the Department of the Army stating that Central's one-year program was in violation of its contract with the Department of the Army and was therefore illegal. The Department of the Army allowed Central to continue with the one-year compulsory program for the 1963-64 academic year because the University catalog had been printed and other pub 1 i c announcements had been made. The Department of the Army emphasized, however, that the University must either return to the two-year compulsory program or adopt the completely voluntary program for the 1964-65 academic yea r . government 0 n various projects for the improvement of education, particularly teacher education. My personal r e - sponsibility the r e was t 0 assist in developing a nationwide extension program for secondary schools. This work necessitated considerable travel in India. I left New Delhi for a month of vacation and worked in Bengal and Assam. I was in the territory where the Chinese invaded 16 months ago and where thousands of refugees from communal disturbances in East Pakistan are b e i n g provided with temporary housing, medical care and food. My w i f e and I also spent a few days at Darjeeling, the queen of the man y "HillStations" the British developed as resorts where the y could escape the worst of the heat. Darjeeling is tucked in between Nepal, Bhutan, and Sikkim and com man d s a Following a consideration of these alternatives by the University Senate, the President's Council, and the State Board, the decision to move to the voluntary program, effective this fall, was made. Department of the Arm y regulations require the ROTC unit to maintain a minimum enrollment 0 f 100 freshmen and to graduate not less than 25 officers each year. In ordl:!r to become aware of the nature and benefits of participation in the ROTC program, all male first-semester freshmen who do not immediately elect to enroll in Military Science 101 are required to attend five periods of Citizenship Orientation during the first few weeks of the semester. These periods may be applied toward M.S. 101 by those who decide to enroll in the Basic Course following completion of the orientation. Colonel Frederick A. Schmaltz, a combat veteran of World War II and Korea, is the new Professor of military science at CMU. Colonel Schmaltz, who assumed his new p 0 s t this month, will serve as head of the Military Science Department at Central. He replaces Lt. Col. Adolph Fossum who held the position for t h r e e years before retiring from active duty in July. beautiful sun-rise view of Mt. Everest. In fact, this area is where I and many other hundreds of American servicemen took off from during World War II to fly "over the hump" into southwestern China. This has been an interesting time to be in India. It is easy to come to identify with the many nob I e efforts of the country to find pro m i sin g ways of working on her many problems and to establish a role in world affairs. It is also easy to come to understand that for every step a h e a d there seems to be at least one slip backwards. I wish I could feel that our (the U.S. government) program of assistance was on the right track in more ways. Although the soc i a I scientists studying the process of change in countries such as India have underlined certain ways of working, we still have too few citizens at home, too few officials in Washington and too few Americans who _ Page Thirteen go overseas to work who realize that more than technical know-how, more t han economic development, more than injecting American ideas is involved. In fact, too many American ideas have bee n tried; also too many British, Russian, German and 0 the r Western ideas have been imported. It is hard for Americans, and for the Indians, to come fully to realize that t~e pro b I e m of development IS more a creative problem than an imitiative problem, that it has more to do with values and attitudes than with economics or technology. We returned to the United States in July, 1964. During the next period of m y professional life I will be seeking and creating ways of trying to make use of my International experience, and what I hope are sound conclusions from that experience, towards the reorientation of the international content of American education. I feel the American role in the world today is seriously limited by what we do and do not teach to future citizens and leaders abo u t other parts of the world and other cultures; limited also by what we teach and don't teach about ourselves. Fortunately some beginnings on this problem are now being made by ("olleges and u n i v e r sit ~' schools of education, state departments of education and foundations. What is Central doing on this problem which may prove to be much" mor~ important t han the new' math., tea m teaching or improved practice-teaching programs?
