This week the country celebrates National Newspaper Week, and though the Daily Trojan modestly considers itself just a fern among metropolitan “General Shermans,” it celebrates the occasion with equal pride as the Los Angeles Times or Examiner.
Newspapers and their concept of freedoan of the press have generated a great deal of controversy over the decades.
Critics have accused them of everything from slanting news for predatory purposes to degrading themselves in their zeal to present the seamy and sensational.
Through it all a publisher’s right to print the news as he sees fit has been upheld. It is important that this right continues to be upheld, for as Joseph Pa'itzer wrote in 1904, “Our Republic and its press will rise or fall together.”
This perrogative of the press has not always existed. In England and in the early days of the Colonies, free expression was stiffled. It was not until 1734 when John Peter Zenger, publisher of the New York Weekly Journal, was imprisoned and subsequently free after criticizing the British governor that the free press concept was jettisoned, later to be enacted into law.
Today, running a newspaper is not the sort of business a man gets into by borrowing on a GI loan. It’s a profession for the well-heeled, keen-minded businessman, who woa-.dn’t willfully prefer to operate at a loss any more than a professor would consider teaching without a salary.
The chances involved are legion, possible losses are astronomical. A look at the cavernous shell that once housed the throbbing Daily News should prove the point
But because men seek to make a profit does not mean that their purposes are predatory. Their biased comments on the editorial pages are their perrogative as ordained by the First Amendment to the Constitution. And surveys of American newspapers bear vivid proof that the reader who progresses beyond the headlines will discoved an objectivity in the news.
Those critics who unwittingly call for some contra! of the press should also bear in mind that any time a force looms powerful enough to choke a free press, then the clergyman in the pulpit, the teacher before the class and the citizen at a public forum are on the verge of censorship.

Council Opens Member Ranks
Petitions for membership on the Education Council are still available in SU 215 ASSC office, it was learned from Barbara Irvine, School of Education president.
“The main goal of this year’s council will be the improvement of student and faculty relationships through the media of joint luncheons, dinners, and panel discussions," announced Miss Irvine.
AU students who have completed or who have in progress at least six units in education are eligible for membership. Plans include the ASSC Christmas Show, Education Center and a joint Educational convention with CSTA.
Los Angeles Police Dept, told the Daily Trojan that his officers and detectives have been constantly receiving reports from students and professors j complaining about thefts from vehicles and offices.
Latest theft victim is Floyd C. Sanger Jr., a student in the School of Laws. He told officers that personal belongings valued at $93 were stolen from his 1948 sedan while it was parked during daylight hours in a lot at Exposition Blvd. and University Ave.
Forgotten Locks
Sanger, who told officers he “forgot” to lock his car doors, said he was missing a $20 briefcase, a S30 jacket, a S3 notebook. anrl S40 worth of new law books.
Capt. Lee said that if persons must leave their valuables in their cars, they should put them in the vehicle’s trunk and lock it. He added that serial numbers of cameras, typewriters, and other precision instruments should be recorded by the owner so they can be recovered by the department’s pawn shop detail if they are stolen.
Capt. Lee said his officers took a survey of thefts occurring during a two-month period on campus last year and found the value of the articles stolen to be about $4700.
Stolen Articles
He put the articles stolen in the following categories: Clothing, $1836: typewriters, cameras, recorders, $982; musical instruments, $402; school supplies and equipment, $565; auto parts, $450; miscellaneous, $515.
The police officer also cautioned members of fraternities, sororities, and other campus living groups to keep their windows and doors locked when the buildings are empty.
He cited many cases where television sets, furniture, clothes, money, and jewelry have been taken from Row houses because of the inhabitants’ negligence.
House Burglars
Capt. Lee said that not even trained police officers, much less university students, are able to recognize a car thief or house burglar when they see him.
“The criminal dresses and acts just like us. He fits into ! the neighborhood and campus 1 surroundings just like us. He even carries books and wears white bucks,’’ he said.
But. the Capt. concluded, a j thiefis a thief, and will stoop to i taking someone else's property 1 regardless where he may find it.

SC students will have to study harder in order to keep from being put on probation next September, according to an announcement made today by the Committee on Student Scholarship Standards.
Going into effect next fall, any student who does
not earn a C 12.00» average in a semester or maintain a cumulative average of 2.00 at the university will be placed on academic probation. A student on academic probation will be expelled if his cumulative record shows a shortage of 12 or more grade points for a C average at the end of any semester. Student Disqualification Students who have been on academic probation for two consecutive semesters may be disqualified after review of their records by the Committee on Student Scholarship Standards.
The announcement was made early in order to give students
ample warning.
Under present rules a student can drop to a 1.5 average before going on probation, according to Dr. Paul E. Hadley, committee chairman.
First Lecture
Speaking at the first in a series of Study Lectures held last night in Bovard Auditorium. Dr. Hadley said many students have managed to stay above a 1.5 average but staved below the 2.00 required to graduate and thus entered their senior years far short on grade points.
Now. with more uniform standards. students will not be carried through to their senior year with no chance to graduate, he said. He added that “This is not

No New Hardships The committee feels the new rule will not force hardships on the students. “Under the old rules people were lazy, because they didn't have to work,” said H. W. Patmore, registrar.
People will get better grades, because they will have to. The rule doesn’t mean that hundreds will be disqualified. Three hundred is the average number of disqualifications at present, and it won t go up to a disastrous extent.”

Issues Warning Later. Lloyd took off bv special plane for the U.N. debate in New? York with the warning
WASHINGTON (UP) — Adlai, E. Stevenson charged tonight in -a new broadside attack on Presi- '< dent Eisenhower’s school policies that the administration has j “utterly failed” to meet the edu- J cation “crisis.’’
Plugging his own “generation-! long’’ school plan, the Democra- ‘ tic presidential nominee said Mr. Eisenhower used the 1955! White House Conference on Education as an “excuse for inaction.”
“Our schools were asked to wait through three years of gathering crisis for a definition j of the federal role,” Stevenson | declared, “only to emerge with ! no definition.”
When the administration finally did ask Congress to act, he said, it “put forth a weak bill for federal aid limited to school construction alone.’* Elaborates Stand Stevenson outlined a five-point program to improve the j nation’s schools in the latest of j his “New America” statements. It was an elaboration of the nationally-televised school speech he made in ♦Iilvvaukee Friday night. I
He issued the statement after announcing that he will begin a four-dav western tlip Oct. 9 in an effort to capture electoral votes in Montana, Idaho, Washington, Oregon and California.
Mr. Eisenhower anno u n c e d yesterday that he will visit two of the same states—Washington and Oregon—a few days later. The president will be in the Northwest Oct. 17-19, so the paths of the two presidential candidates will not cross.
Stevenson said he could not estimate the cost of his proposed program until it was determined what shares should be borne by the federal, state and local governments. But he said the nation as a whole should spend an extra $500 million to $1 billion a year for 10 years to build schools and hire more teachers.
Stevenson said the nation should be building 100,000 new classrooms a year and the “teacher shortage may reach proportions of disaster for our culture and our economy.”

AU students who have completed or who have in progress at least six units in education are eligible for membership. Plans include the ASSC Christmas Show, Education Center and a joint Educational convention with CSTA. Los Angeles Police Dept, told the Daily Trojan that his officers and detectives have been constantly receiving reports from students and professors j complaining about thefts from vehicles and offices. Latest theft victim is Floyd C. Sanger Jr., a student in the School of Laws. He told officers that personal belongings valued at $93 were stolen from his 1948 sedan while it was parked during daylight hours in a lot at Exposition Blvd. and University Ave. Forgotten Locks Sanger, who told officers he “forgot” to lock his car doors, said he was missing a $20 briefcase, a S30 jacket, a S3 notebook. anrl S40 worth of new law books. Capt. Lee said that if persons must leave their valuables in their cars, they should put them in the vehicle’s trunk and lock it. He added that serial numbers of cameras, typewriters, and other precision instruments should be recorded by the owner so they can be recovered by the department’s pawn shop detail if they are stolen. Capt. Lee said his officers took a survey of thefts occurring during a two-month period on campus last year and found the value of the articles stolen to be about $4700. Stolen Articles He put the articles stolen in the following categories: Clothing, $1836: typewriters, cameras, recorders, $982; musical instruments, $402; school supplies and equipment, $565; auto parts, $450; miscellaneous, $515. The police officer also cautioned members of fraternities, sororities, and other campus living groups to keep their windows and doors locked when the buildings are empty. He cited many cases where television sets, furniture, clothes, money, and jewelry have been taken from Row houses because of the inhabitants’ negligence. House Burglars Capt. Lee said that not even trained police officers, much less university students, are able to recognize a car thief or house burglar when they see him. “The criminal dresses and acts just like us. He fits into ! the neighborhood and campus 1 surroundings just like us. He even carries books and wears white bucks,’’ he said. But. the Capt. concluded, a j thiefis a thief, and will stoop to i taking someone else's property 1 regardless where he may find it.

Going into effect next fall, any student who does not earn a C 12.00» average in a semester or maintain a cumulative average of 2.00 at the university will be placed on academic probation. A student on academic probation will be expelled if his cumulative record shows a shortage of 12 or more grade points for a C average at the end of any semester. Student Disqualification Students who have been on academic probation for two consecutive semesters may be disqualified after review of their records by the Committee on Student Scholarship Standards. The announcement was made early in order to give students ample warning. Under present rules a student can drop to a 1.5 average before going on probation, according to Dr. Paul E. Hadley, committee chairman. First Lecture Speaking at the first in a series of Study Lectures held last night in Bovard Auditorium. Dr. Hadley said many students have managed to stay above a 1.5 average but staved below the 2.00 required to graduate and thus entered their senior years far short on grade points. Now. with more uniform standards. students will not be carried through to their senior year with no chance to graduate, he said.

York with the warning WASHINGTON (UP) — Adlai, E. Stevenson charged tonight in -a new broadside attack on Presi- '< dent Eisenhower’s school policies that the administration has j “utterly failed” to meet the edu- J cation “crisis.’’ Plugging his own “generation-! long’’ school plan, the Democra- ‘ tic presidential nominee said Mr. Eisenhower used the 1955! White House Conference on Education as an “excuse for inaction.” “Our schools were asked to wait through three years of gathering crisis for a definition j of the federal role,” Stevenson declared, “only to emerge with ! no definition.” When the administration finally did ask Congress to act, he said, it “put forth a weak bill for federal aid limited to school construction alone.’* Elaborates Stand Stevenson outlined a five-point program to improve the j nation’s schools in the latest of j his “New America” statements. It was an elaboration of the nationally-televised school speech he made in ♦Iilvvaukee Friday night. I He issued the statement after announcing that he will begin a four-dav western tlip Oct. 9 in an effort to capture electoral votes in Montana, Idaho, Washington, Oregon and California. Mr. Eisenhower anno u n c e d yesterday that he will visit two of the same states—Washington and Oregon—a few days later. The president will be in the Northwest Oct. 17-19, so the paths of the two presidential candidates will not cross. Stevenson said he could not estimate the cost of his proposed program until it was determined what shares should be borne by the federal, state and local governments. But he said the nation as a whole should spend an extra $500 million to $1 billion a year for 10 years to build schools and hire more teachers. Stevenson said the nation should be building 100,000 new classrooms a year and the “teacher shortage may reach proportions of disaster for our culture and our economy.” JERRA LINN TYLER . . . resigns Jerra Tyler Resigns Post Jerra Linn Tyler has resigned as Greater University Committee Chairman ASSC President Carl Terzian announced yesterday. Miss Tyier had to resign die to an overloaded schedule and a class which conflicted with her duties as chairman, he said. “Jerra Linn Tyler is a very capable student and we hope to find some office for her which will not conflict with her class schedule,” said Terzian. Petitions for the office of Greater University Committee Chairman must be in by 3:30 today at 215 SU. Interviews v\ ill be given immediately upon presentation of the petition. The new chairman will be announced by Terzian at the Senate meeting tomorrow evening. |
