Engineers Will Stress Liberal Arts CLEVELAND — <l’P* — Students at Case Institute of Tech-1 nology here are getting a large dose of Botticelli and Bach along wiih atomic energy and quantitative analysis. Under its new program of “Humanities.” students are required to spend about one out ! of every four campus hours in pursuit of culture and human relations improvement. Case is one of t he few engineering schools to insist that its graduates have a smattering of "cul- ; tme” along with their scientific and engineering knowledge. Prof. Robert L. Shurt'er, head of the program, explained it is necessary lor undergraduates to I mix literature, music and art with laboratory test tubes and nuclear advancements because of their needs in later life. “Today the engineer rises rapid!} in an industrial society.” he said. “A survey of ('a>c graduates shows more than 60 per cent in administrative executive positions. “Growing responsibilities of the engineer require a greater knowledge of personalities, phi- ! losophy and society.” To prove that SC coeds are among the country's best looking, pretty Linda Hickey has been chosen Campus Queen Candidate number three in Sport Magazine's November i*sue. Miss Hickey, an SC sophomore, is a member of Kappa Alpha Theta sorority. Majoring in fashion design, she plans to go into advertising after graduation. Measuring 35-‘14-35, Miss Hickey is an able representative of the SC coed. Her hobbies include swimming, water skiing and campus activities. Her picture can be found yn page six of Sport which hits the newsstands tomorrow. At the end of the year. Sport’s subscribers will cast Iheir votes to select the Campus Queen of 1957. Cost of Living Goes Up Again WASHINGTON - (UP* —The cost of living rose to a record high in August for t h e 12th straight month with prices of meat, eggs and other foods leading the climb, the government reported yesterday. The Labor Department's consumer price index shot to an all-time peak of 121 per cent of the 1047-49 base period. The department's Bureau of Labor Statistics takes a monthly sampling of prices of 300 goods and services across Ihe nation. All categories on the index rose in August. The August, index was two-tenths of one per cent higher than in July. Bureau Commissioner Ewan Clague refused to predict what might happen to the index in September, although he said meat prices, especially pork, might drop this fall. The August increase meant a 2 to 3 cent hourly wage increase for 157.000 aircraft, glass and metal workers whose wages are tied to the price index. Despite the price rise, spendable earnings and buying power of factory workers rose in August. Longer hours boosted the average pay of a factory worker w i t h three dependents from $71.80 to $73.13 a week. Treasury Undersecretary W. Randolph Burgess told a meeting of the Governors of the International Monetary Fund here that liv ing Costs were higher ■ than the Administration would like hut had not reached “dan- i gcrous proportions.” He said the government was i determined to check inflation lest the "benefits of prosperity” be dissipated through "a shrinking value of money." Food prices rose four tenths i of one per cent in August. The price of fruits and vegetables t dropped but failed to offset rises I elsewhere. Ike Sends Troops To Aid Integration Night Students Lift Registration To 18,800 Count “The tuition went up and the enrollment went up”, said Howard W. Patmore, registrar. Last year the total dnv enrollment was 13.074; this year it is approximately 13,400. Herman J. Sheffield, director of admissions, said: “I can't see where the increase in tuition could possibly affect enrollment. There is no connection whatsoever. We have lifted* our scholarship requirements for LITTLE ROCK. Ark. (UP) — Five hundred troops from the 101st Airborne Division landed at Little Rock last night on President Eisenhower's orders to end the rebellion aeainst a j federal count's order for integration of Central High School. The Little Rock Air Force Base public relations officer said the troops, from Fort Camobell. Ky., started landing in C-119 flying boxcars at 3:15 p.m. Little Rock Air Force Rase is 20 miles from the city. It was not disclosed immediately when the troops will be assigned to their duties in Little Rock. I. Rigger Force The force of airborne troops j is three times the size of the Little Rock police force, which was not able to insure the inte-j gration of Central High, j A spokesman at headquarters of the Arkansas Military District said he didn't know immediately how they would be deployed. President Eisenhower also federalized the Arkansas National Guard and it had been J supposed that it would have the primary duty of enduig the uproar. The Army put Maj. Gen. Edwin A. Walker, a paratrooper ; and former ranger, in command of the federalized guard. Welcome Federalized The leader of the NAACP in Arkansas welcomed President Eisenhower’s federalization of the National Guard and said Ihe nine Negro students will permanently integrate Central High School tomorrow, if troops are on duty. “The children will go back to school as soon as we are assured protection.” Mrs. L. C. Bates, state president of the NAACP, said. "If that's in the morning, they will go hack in the morning.

It was believed likely, however, that only certain units will lie used. Gov. Orval F a u b u s. who thought his presence would have a "quieting effect.” rushed back by Air Guard plane from the Southern Governors’ Conference at Sea Island. Ga. Faubus, who thinks that every state is guaranteed a militia, I wi.ether or not it is called the National Guard, was an integral part of the disoute. which turned into outright defiance of the federal government yesterday. Called Out Guard He called out the guard the night of Sept. 2 to prevent inte-' gration of Central High, explaining that there had been a heavy buying of guns. Faubus said he feared violence if the ‘Negroes tried to attend. U. S. District Judge Ronald N. Dav ies decided last Friday, after the hearing, that Faubus was simply concerned with preventing integration and enjoined him to stop interfering with Negroes’ attending the school. He sent the guard home and i left the state for the Governors I Conference, sav ing he still feared \ there was imminent danger of violence if the school were integrated. The nine Negroes slipped into New Cour Given in TV Fledgling Trojan actors and actresses will have the opportunity to emote before TV earner ; in a University College course in television acting.

Rut the crowd, still fighting and attacking white newsmen and surging against police lin< s. threatened to break through to the school. The Negroes were taken out of the school building by police for their own safety. In contrast toMhat unruly I crowd, there were about 300 i persons at the school when it ¡opened yesterdav. It made no | demonstration, possibly because police arrested and hauled off t-< jail nine agitators before they could get things stirred up. ★ ★ ir WhatTrojans Think About Faubus Acts Due to the current violence over integration in Little Rock.

Russell Bomberger, teaching assistant. English dept.: "I disagree with his methods because they are completely against the trends of our time.” Adele Schwartz, sophomore: “By taking matters into his own hands, he is denying Negroes basic rights and privileges.” Dick Lamb, senior: “I heartily disapprove of his methods.” Jordan Sc'ierr. pharmacy graduate: "I feel that nothing can actually be done about segregation problems, but Governor Faubus’ action was much too radical.” Carolyn Metcalf: “His mo- 1 lives may be sincere, but his methods were wrong and he showed very little respect for lederal authority.’’ Bob Jones: “His action was purely ridiculous because, after all, it is well known that Ne- Fine Arts Receive Interior Designer Dorothy Peterson, Los Angeles interior designer, will teach an advanced evening course in interior design for the SC Fine Arts Department this semester.

Sheffield explained that the number of women students is once again increasing. Last year the men outnumbered their counterparts by a four to one ratio The figure will remain basically the same, however, although more women are regis-: tering. foreign Students Enroll The foreign student's office revealed that 262 foreign students had applied for admission. Last year there were 279 applications accepted, however, only 172 of the students completed registration. According to the latest figures. SC has the third largest international student enrollment in the United States. SC's growth from 53 students in 1880 to 13.400 in 1957 marks an outstanding growth in the university. according to Dr. Sheffield, and this increase is expected to continue until the total registration at SC is 30.000 by 1970 SC Second Largest SC is the second largest university in the Los Angeles area. UCLA has registered approxi-r 'tely 15.208 students this year, showing a slight decrease of 100 students as compared to last year. Los Angeles Slate College has shown a 1500 student increase of 11,572 to 12.700 according to figures at the college registration office. Occidental College reports their enrollment has remained steady over the last few- years and remains at about 1350 in number. Evidence of a possible rise in tuition at Stanford University was hinted by Mr. Sheffield. Correspondence has reached him from Stanford inquiring about the SC tuition fee. Mr. Sheffield cited that even with the increase from $25 to $27. SC remains in the lower middle ex-, pense range compared with other universities of thi* type. Greatest improvement in the registration process was shown when 3600 students pre-regis-tered by mail. The long waiting periods and lines usually associated with registration were greatly alleviated and the entire process proved more efficient. Dr. Sheffield said. DR. HERMAN SHEFFIELD . . .
