AWS Associate Cabinet to begin speakers program
The AWS Associate Cabinet will begin a new speakers program today aimed at bringing prominent and professional women to the campus.
The first program will begin at 3:30 p.m. with a reception honoring women members of the faculty in the Bovard Hall of Nations.
The reception, w-hich will also include an introduction to AWS plans for the year, is open to all women students.
“The purpose of the speakers program is to view the role of the woman in today’s society," Karol Wrahl-berg. AWS vice-president, said.
“The reception for faculty women will allow us to get to know many of the important figures on campus and see the dual role they play, that
of professional w'omen and that of homemaker.’’
Karen Mazepink, AWS president, explained that other speakers program activities throughout the year would include presentations by well-known professional women and discussions or seminars on pertinent topics.
“In this way we will be able to take advantage of our location in the middle of Los Angeles and all the outstanding women contributors who come here,” Miss Wahlberg said'.
Miss Wahlberg and Carol Haugeland are serving as cochairmen of the speakers program. Serving on their committee are Joann Chun, Donna DeDiemar, Kathy Bice, Marcia Knud-sen, Leslie Owens, Barbara Tsuchiya and Robin Wallace.
ASSC Council OKs
magazine proposal
umnist and international reporter, Considine was selected’ for his excellence in the newspaper field; NBC’s Miss Frederick for her excellence in reporting by television and radio from the United Nations, and Plimpton for excellence in the field of periodicals.
Miss Frederick, is the recipient of more than a dozen honorary degrees and numerous awards.
A graduate in political science from American University, she got her start in interviewing wives of diplomats for the Washington Star.
She joined NBC in 1953 and has reported on the UN crises in the Middle East, Cuba, the Dominican Republic, Suez, Korea, Laos and Hungary, as well as covering many political conventions and the Nuremberg trials of German war criminals.
Considine began his newspaper career in 1923 at the age of 17. He was hired by the late William Ran-doph Hearsf as a syndicated columnist in 1936, the year his now famous “On the Line’’ column first appeared in the New York Mirror.
He has won three Overseas Press Club awards for best overseas reporting and was a member of the Pulizer prize-winning Hearst Task Force.
For many years he has had a radio commentary titled for his column byline.
Plimpton, 38, in addition to being editor of the Paris Review, is a contributing editor to Sports Illustrated and a well-known humorist for his somewhat autobiographical books such as the “PaperLion.”
The ASSC Executive Council approved the general policy of an on-campus magazine yesterday after establishing a special ASSC committee to .act as a liaison between the magazine’s staff and the Executive Council.
The magazine, envisioned as a combination literary, satirical and general-interest publication, such as Esquire, would rely on student sales “as a final mark of approval or rejection.”
The council also voted by a bare two-thirds majority to adopt an a-mendment to the ASSC Constitution providing for selection of four graduate representatives by the Student Court Selection Committee.
Students who apply for the positions must be full-time graduate students with at least a 2.5 grade point average.
The Selection Committee is composed of ASSC President Marty Foley, Paul Bloland, dean of students, and Paul Moore, director of student activities.
The dissenting votes were based on a long discussion in which many council members disagreed with the philosophy of choosing student representatives on a student government council by a committee composed of two administrators and only one student.
There were also fears that an ASSC president could stack the council in his favor through the selection committee.
Other council members argued, however, that the two administrators would not allow such a stacking and the amendment was adopted because of a general consensus on the impracticability of holding a graduate student election with the current level of apathy among graduate students.
A council subcommittee of Bob Lutz, vice-president of university affairs,. Norm Wilky, vice-president of student activities, and Bill Prezant, independent representative, presented the council with a four-page statement outlining the general policy, format and structure of the campus magazine.
“The magazine is intended to serve as a supplement to other student publications,” the statement explained, “and shall therefore deal with items of topical interest to students, and shall serve both as a forum for divergent opinions (not necessarily rep-
ROW PRESIDENTS TO DISCUSS KA
A meeting of all fraternity presidents will be held tomorrow to discuss the IFC Judicial’s suspension of the Kappa Alpha Order.
The meeting, scheduled for the President’s Conference Room (Administration Building) at 3 p.m., was called last Wednesday by Tom Ternquist, IFC president, when a proposal calling for IFC disapproval of Its Judicia’s ruling threatened to disrupt the regular meeting.
resentative of the ASSC or the administration) and as a definer of the character of USC.
“The magazine will be related to campus affairs and matters of interest to members of the university community. Hopefully, however, the magazine will be enjoyable to the university community beyond USC. And although it will be particularly directed to the USC student, it is not intended to be incomprehensible, for example, to the UC student.”
Since the magazine will be financed by the ASSC and will rely on student support through campus sales,
the council subcommittee recommended the establishment of a special committee to act as a liaison between the staff of the magazine and the Executive Council in such matters as recruiting, budgeting, staffing and content.
Foley appointed Tom Ternquist, IFC president, Al Levine, senior class president; Suzanne DeBall, junior class representative, and Prezant to serve on this committee. He noted that its membership is open, however, to other interested members of the student body.

Training executives smorgasbord-style
By RON SMITH
The School of Business Administration has just completed the first of its triannual Lockheed Management Institute executive-training programs wrhere 40 specialists were exposed to various aspects of business management.
“The Lockheed Management Institute was specially tailored for Lockheed by USC for their middle-manage-ment program,' John E. Peterson, director of executive programs for the School of Business, said in an interview.
“The institute utilizes the smorgasbord approach to business, which is a general exposure to all the fields
—	marketing, computer science, finance, accounting — with some in-depth coverage.
‘A manager deals with questions. He must know the capabilities of his people, have a general knowledge of their specialties and know how to utilize their talents. In other words, a manager does not necessarily have to know all the business specialties, he must simply know of them,” Peterson said.
Peterson described the recent business graduate as a carpenter with special tools. When the graduate enters into industry, he often finds himself unable to use these tools because his manager doesn’t know they exist.
A primary purpose of the institute is to orient the prospective Lockheed manager in other fields of business so he can best apply the talents of his staff.
The Lockheed Institute began in May, 1963, for the purpose of Lockheed in Southern California, but has since then expanded to national Lockheed offices.
"Independent studies show a significant learning experience takes place in the program which in time proves beneficial to the prospective manager,” Peterson said.
Dr. William Himstreet, associate dean of the School of Business, described the business management programs as different from other USC community-aimed programs
in that the participants are instructed only on campus.
‘‘We bring businessmen to school, not the school to the businessmen,” Himstreet said.
Both Himstreet and Peterson consider this on-campus approach vital to the success of the Institute.
“We consider it an important factor that the specialist be able to leave his office environment with its ringing phones, busy secretaries and everyday pressures, and enter the learning atmosphere of the university,” Peterson said.
While Lockheed specialists are enrolled in the institute, they attend university lectures, seminars, panel discussions, and workshops, which are all centered in the various fields of business.
Lockheed pays their specialists full salaries during the three weeks of the institute. The institute runs seven hours a day, five days a week.
The School of Business offers two basic types of programs for the updating of -skills and techniques for the outside business community.
The cross-industry program is aimed at the needs of the general business community. Businessmen from several different industries enter this program.
The second program, known as the specially-tailored program, of which the Lockheed Institute is an example, is designed for the needs of a specific company, or professional society.
In the case of Lockheed, the program is arranged so that the specialists receive instruction from members of the faculty as well as from their own bosses, who relate the faculty instruction to their own company.
Peterson revealed that when the institute first began there was skepticism towards the merit of such integrated programming.
“However, both the faculty and Lockheed are happy with the program,” Peterson said.
“USC probably has had more experience in specially-tailored business programs than any other university in the world,” he said.
