AVANT GARDE
European Musician To Conduct at Troy
Pierre Boulez, European composer, conductor and pianist, will be the guest conductor of the chamber orchestra tonight at 8:30 in the Monday Evening Concert series presentation in Bovard Auditorium.
“Boulez is the acknowledged leader of the Avant Garde, the progressive artists in Europe,*’ Rodger Vaughan, former instructor of music appreciation, said. Vaughan pointed out that at this time the Europeans are ahead of the Americans in the fieid of music.
Soloists for the program will include Marie Gibson, soprano; Karl Kohn, pianist; and Carol Plantamura, soprano.
Unique Compositions The program for the evening will consist of three renditions of the poems of Stephen Mallarmé. The first will be ‘‘Three Poems of Stephen Mallarmé” by Ravel and the second is titled “Three Poems of Mallarmé,” by Debussy. The third, “Two Improvisations on Mallarmé,” was composed by Boulez.
“Boulez's compositions are unique in that he hears il! that he writes in his mind while he is composing,” Vaughan said. “A musical ear which is as highly trained as Boulez’s is hard to find today.”
Other Selections “Structures II for Two Pianos,” another composition by Boulez, will also be presented. The final selection of the evening will be “Concerto for Nine Instruments, Opus 24” by Webern.
Kohn, the guest pianist, is a teacher of piano and theory at Claremont. Miss Plantamura, another guest soloist, participates in USC operas.

Dean Confers With Officials In Pakistan
Dr. Robert R. Dockson, dean of the Graduate School of Business Administration has travelled to Pakistan to attend two weeks of confer ences there.
He is meeting with officials of the Pakistan Government and of the University of Karachi to discuss USC’s Pakistan Project.
Under the Pakistan Project, USC is providing direc tion for business administra tion at Karachi as adminis tered through the Agency for International Development. It is the United States State De partment’s largest single commitment of its kind.
Aid to Economy
Building toward a goal of turning out more than 150 graduates a year to enter the private segment of the Pakistan economy, the Graduate School of Pakistan has 189 daytime students and 240 in evening classes.
Also present at the conferences will be nine members of USC's business faculty currently advising at the Karachi Graduate School of Business Administration.
While USC’s faculty works In Karachi as advisers, nine students from Pakistan are on the Troy campus doing graduate work in business administration, which will enable them to return to their homeland as professors on the faculty of the University of Karachi and as officials in key government posts.
Vital Project
“Among the relatively few graduate school of business administrations outside the United States, none may be more important to the free world or the private enterprise system than the one in Pakistan.” Dr. Dockson said.
“Importance of the business school at Karachi will be measured first in the development of middle-mana?e-ment personnel badly needed by Pakistan itself, and second, for the example wrhich can be presented to other nations of the free world,” he added.
Students Plan
International
Celebration
Preparations are now being made by several campus foreign students for entertainment presentations at the annual Festival of Nations April 20, Bill Heeres, event chairman, said yesterday.
The International Students House has already decided that its contribution will be the showing of films from all over the world in an afternoon program in Hancock auditorium, Heeres noted. The house will also help with decorations.
Sociologist To Lecture
Birth control will be discussed by Dr. Maurice Van Arsdol, associate professor of sociology, at a graduate student forum today at 12:05 in the Presbyterian-Episcopal Center.
Dr. Van Arsdol, codirector of the population research laboratory, will survey world population problem and possible solutions.
He will put particular emphasis on the problem in underdeveloped nations.
He indicated he would emphasize the role that increased fertility has played in the population explosion.
Biologist Receives Study Grant
Arnold G. Kluge, graduate student in biology, has received a grant to continue the study of taxonomy and zoogeography.
Dr. Harlow Shapley. chairman of the Sigma Xi and Scientific Research Society of America (RESA) grants-in-aid research committee, said Kluge will use the grant to follow up the work he started under a Fulbright Award he received last year.
“Sigma Xi and RESA make a number of grants each year to the most promising scientists at critical points in their research careers,” Dr. Shapely said. “We recognize that many needs are relatively too small for the large foundations to consider and it is to meet these needs that our research funds are maintained.”
The society of Sigma Xi has 144 chapters and more than 125 clubs in major college and universities in the United States and Canada.
The Chinese students will present entertainment from 8 p.m. to midnight at an informal “International Ball, a dance to be held in Town and Gown Foyer, Heeres said.
Student Offerings
Half hour offerings by student groups will be presented at the same time as the film festival, Heeres ex plained.
All foreign students, including those wTho will appear in the programs, have been urged to participate in a “Parade of Nations” along University Avenue and through Alumni Memorial Park, Heeres said.
Following Parade
The parade will be followed by a special luncheon in the cafeteria featuring an international menu. Picnic lunches will be available throughout the afternoon, Heeres said.
The day’s activities will
begin at 10:30 in the patio ,	,	,	,	.	e	.

away from many of pledges,” Johnson said.
“Fraternity Row” is a 176-page, pro-fraternity book, Johnson said, but he explain ed that he strived to take a true, objective look at frater nities by presenting both their good and bad points Johnson got the idea for the book when he pledged Sigma Alpha Epsilon at Drake University, Des Moines, Iowa, in 1959. As president of his pledge class he discovered how little he and other people knew about fraternities.
He said he wrote the book to give an insight of fraternities to high school boys, college freshmen, parents and girl friends of fraternity men.
“If I had known how much work it would be and how hard it was to write a book, I might never have started,” Johnson admitted.
Began Writing He began writing in February, 1962, and received bid from the Brewster firm Dec. 26. Several national distribution firms have expressed interest in circulating the book.
The late actor Dick Powell, also a member of Sigma Alpha Epsilon, wrote the foreward to the book last August. The book is dedicated to his memory.
Comments for the book were writen by such personalities as Sen. Barry Gold-water, R-Ariz.; Art Linklet-ter, Lowell Thomas, Dr. Norman Vincent Peale, and Dr. Vincent Askey, past president of the American Medical Association.
Dr. Frank C. Baxter, emeritus professor of English, also wrote one of the comments for the book. Johnson gained a legal opinion from Lloyd Wright, past president of the American Bar Association.

Publication Gives Award To Scientist
Dr. Tze Tuan Chen, professor of biology, was recently named one of 24 “Chinese of the Year” by the Chinese magazine Cosmorama Pictorial.
Dr. Chen, wrho is currently on sabbatical leave in Formosa, received the award for his contributions to science and education.
The selections were made in praise of the success in science, education, literature, music, drama and art achieved by Chinese nationals. The magazine publishes the awards at the beginning of each year.
Fulbright Fellow
The USC educator is spending a year in Taipei, Formosa, doing research and lecturing as a Fulbright Fellow. He is currently a visiting professor of zoology at the Na tional Taiwan University.
Dr. Chen is a graduate of Fukien Christian University, Oberlin College and the University of Pennsylvania. He has done research work as a Sterling Fellow at Yale and as a research fellow and later a research associate at Johns Hopkins University.
The protozoologist lectured at UCLA for six years before being selected by the Chinese government to join its National Academy of Sciences. He instituted a program in biology and trained skilled technicians while he was at the Academy.
Fourteen Years
Then Dr. Chen returned to the United States and became a professor of biology at Minnesota State Teachers College, Bemidji, Minn. In 1949 he joined the faculty of USC as an associate professor of biology. Dr. Chen was granted a full professorship at USC in 1951.
The 24 selections for “Chinese of the Year” included seven women and 17 men. The selectees’ pictures were published in the magazine with identifications and reasons. The entire text of the magazine, which is published in Hong Kong, is in both Chinese and English.
