In a premature test of its power, TRG met defeat with the placing of Senator-at-Large Carl Terzian on the powerful Board of Financial Control. Senator Bob Croutch, also elected to the board, ran on the MSG ticket, while Terzian ran independently against TRG in the last election.
TRG - sponsored Senator - at -Large Dave Gershenson lost out completely in the board election. In a re-vote for board chairman, Croutch received 14 votes to Ter-zian*s 11.
Weintraub Wins For the six-member Elections Investigating Commission, TRG Ron Weintraub, IFC president, won the chairmanship from MSG’s Senator - at - Large Bob Meads.
“The Financial Board election show's not all the power is concentrated on TRG's side,” AMS President Bob Gerst said.
But Joe Cerrell, TRG boss, said that election was unimportant politically "because the board controls nothing regarding politics.” “The important thing was getting Weintraub elected to head the past. The eventual | ,he Elections Investigating Com-

Alex Cooper to MC Big Kick-off Football Rally
Students who are avid and tenacious followers of SC’s football powerhouse will get their chance to holler, scream, and cheer their team tomorrow afternoon at the first rally of the season in Bovard Auditorium.
The rally will start at noon and will get supporters and players in the proper mood for out-yelling and outplaying Oregon In tomorrow night’s PCC game in the Coliseum.
Alex Cooper, KLAC disc jockey, will return to his alma mater to M.C. the big rally.
Johnny Green’s Trojan Marching Band will play and Bill Hillinck and his aides will lead the yells in the brief but spirited program. Green has replaced Tommy Walker as leader of the band.
Leroy Barker, rally chairman, has planned to have all service organizations represented at the affair.
“We hope that everyone will come out to build up spirit for the game and support the team. Support is needed in the smaller games just as much as in the big contests at the end of the season,” Barker said.
Coach Jess Hill and co-captains Marv Goux and George Galli, will speak to the assembly.
“Tomorrow night’s Oregon game is an easy one on paper, but those type of games have a habit of bouncing the wrong way. The one way to insure a second-straight victory tomorrow night is to give the team the support it deserves at the afternoon rally tomoirow and at the game,” Barker said. ______

Heads to Fame
Miss Kim graduated in 1953, and following her Master's degree, was given the lead in the opera "Madame Butterfly” which catapulted her into the headlines of San Francisco, Los Angeles, and Europe.
The Korean born soprano took the part of Cho Cho-san on three days notice in March, 1954, from the Cosmopolitan Opera Company of San Francisco. Joy's initial performance was not only ,good but memorable.
Frisco Applauds San Francisco critics gave her an outstanding press with such comments as (San Francisco News) "Operatic excitement mounted to a new high point last night when the Cosmopolitan Opera Company introduced Joy Kim, Korean soprano, in the title role of "Madame Butterfly."
Other comments following the first night performance came from the San Francisco Examiner, “. . .Her voice was extremely pleasing. She sang with schooling and sentiment. The applause that rang out for her bespoke the likelihood that she will be a Cho Cho-san to reckon with in the future.” First Movie Joy’s talent finally caught the eye of a movie agent and she got a small part in the "High and the Mighty". After her movie role, she toured Europe as a representative of the State Department, performing in concerts and operaa. including great performances in "Madame Butterfly” as well.
Once again the cinema stepped into tha scene and Joy was offered a part hi "Blood Alley", which stars John Wayne. During this period, arrangements were made for Joy to put in a reappearance in San Francisco in "Madame Butterfly”. Her success was even more phenomenal than the first time.
Tours Furope>
Joy is now touring Europe for the second time and is enjoying more success than ever before, according to press releases received by Mrs. Lillian Wilson, voice instructor in the School of Music.
While attending SC, Joy not only majored in music, but was a “. . . devoted, serious and brilliant student,” according to Mrs. Wilson. Joy won the UCLA Young Artists Audition in 1954 and also the City Music Department Annual Audition. She was also on the council of the School of Mu-
KUSC-FM TO TAPE RECORD ROCKET DEMONSTRATION
Andre Stojka, KUSC FM special production director, will tape record a September 27 'NIKE' demonstration at Fort Mac Arthur's rocket establishment for KUSC airing on Oct. 3.
The recorded tour is an opening feature of a new KUSC FM series entitled "Experience." announced production manager Glenn Adamson. “This is the first off-campus assignment of any proportion that we’ve attempted and is excellent material for the “Experience” series which will cover anything unusual, from news analysis by SC professors to such special events as the 'NIKE' tour. We may even experiment hi th.e reading of science fiction esoterica,” said Adamson.
Several of tihe missle sites are now' active in the Southern California area for ground to air protection in event of enemy attack. The deadly rocket recently passed experimental tests against radio-controlled target planes. Published reports have attributed its pinpoint accuracy to an electronic device that enables it to seek out and destroy an enemy aircraft.
KUSC’s Stojka, a 20 year old sophomore, is backed by six years experience in radio and tape recording and has been with the communications department for six months. The special production chief owns and operates his own recording company and is charged with the developing of all KUSC FM shows.

Cinema Instructor Uncooperative' With House Committee
By Jim Karayn
Representatives of the faculty government decided yesterday to uphold the decision of the Administration in the suspension of an instructor, who was "uncooperative” In testifying before the House Un-American Activities Subcommittee last June.
Andries Deinum, former Instructor in cinema, had made a request to the faculty governing body, the University Senate, to review his suspension front the University during summer session.
His suspension followed Dein-um’s questioning before the House Un-American Activities group before whom he admitted that he was a member of the Communist Party from early 1946 to the middle of 1950.
Statement Made
The Executive Committee of the University Senate issued a statement late yesterday explaining that they had "reviewed the request of Andries Deinum, and had considered all available information reievent to the request.”
"The Committee is of the opinion that no further action should be taken," the memo ended.
Deinum appeared before the House Un-American Activities on June 27. Moments after the testimony, he w'as suspended from his teaching duties in summer session. In a letter from Fred D. Fagg, Jr., the University president said that the suspension had resulted because Deinum had invoked the First and Fifth Amendments. His suspension was said to be in accordance with university policy in such eases of a faculty member refusing to answer questions put by a properly constituted governmental agency.
Red Years
Deinum states, though, that he willingly discussed his past membership in a “cultural study group" of the Communist Party for five years.
He did, however, refuse to reveal the names of any of his associates in the Party, preferring to stand on the First and Fifth Amendments.
lie declined to answer only questions where he felt a moral obligation to avoid naming or implicating persons who to the best of his knowledge were innocent ol illegal or immoral acts, Dienum said.
The faculty meeting followed a wave of protest by cinema students over the firing of Deinum. Following the suspension on June 27, a student protest committee was organized by Kent MaeKen-z.ie and Merl Edelman.
The student group has sent letters to all faculty members informing them of the suspension, and a letter of protest to Dr. Fagg.
A certificate, which bears tht signatures of 51 students, has lieen circulated protesting Del-1 mini’s release. According to Mac-1
Kenzie all persons listed on the certificate were students of Dei-rum or acquainted with him in their work in the cinema department ,
Promotion OK’d
Deinum came to SC over three years ago as a instructor. Hia promotion to assistant professor had been recommended and approved shortly before he was railed to testify.
Robert O .Hall, acting head of the cinema department, said that Deinum had not signed his contract for the school year 1955-56 prior to his suspension from summer school.
Hall pointed out that all faculty members under the position of associate professor are only hired on a year-to-year basis and must sign new contracta each academic year,
Deinum’a auspension was un-for the six-week summer session, which ended July 30.
Deinum contends, though, that he made his request for review during the month of August ,and that he was still an official member of the faculty, when he made the request.
Contract End
According to Deinum his contract for the academic year 1954-55 did not officially expire until August 31, 1955.
Lester F. Beck, former head of the Cinema Department and the one who originally recommended Deinum for the faculty position, sent a letter to President Fagg on July 5, tolling of his concern in the matter.
Beck’s letter pointed out that Deinum had made himself widely known throughout the nation for his job in gathering and cataloging cinema material for the university under the Farmington plan.
Testimony Given
At the beginning of his testimony before the Un-American body, he said, “I am not going to testify about my association with others wh le I was a Communist, and si.ice testimony about my activities while in the Party will necessarily involve others, I will not testify about my activities, either.”
Deinum, a Netherlands-born naturalised citizen, came to this country in 1938, served with the OSS for more than a year in the London otfice, beginning in January, 1944. He was naturalized late in 1943.
He graduated from Stanford University in 1942 and received his masters degree from the UCLA department of theater arts, specializing in the Cinema.

In Stockholm, one nf the most magnificent things I saw was a half-mile wide fjiord a-top a two-thousand foot waterfall," said Mrs. Blackmore. Also in Stockholm, she saw an 18th century theater, built by Gustavus III. vith all productions done in an Ihlli century manner.
Mrs. Blackmore. who had opportunity to s|jeak Spanish, FrencH, and German on the trip, reports that "students in foreign countries are anxious to come to the US to school and most of them have heard of SC.”
'I will wager 100-1 that sors, an organization, one of whose
there will not be a Congressional citation in the case of Andries Deinum,” Dr. Russell Caldwell told the first dinner meeting of the SC Wesley Club last night.
Caldwell, whose topic for the evening was "Are American Teachers Free to Teach?” was referring to the dismissal of cinema instructor Deinum after lie had admitted being a former Communist. The history prolessor said that he tell tile courts would tli row out any citaliuii directed toward lllm.
The thought that anyone could make a mistake was forwarded by Caldwell, who is a former president of the American Association of ’University Proles-
jobs it is to protect teachers employed at universities in this country.
It is known that Deinum was considering taking his Ph.D. in history and Caldwell said that he "would be welcome in the department.”
The A.A.U.P. was formed in 1915 and since that time has released and revised a paper on academic freedom and tenure. It also has a permanent committee on investigating cases where the academic freedom of college and university instructors lias been infringed upon .
Up to the last few years this committee has investigated on the average of 50 cases a year; this number has tripled recently, but
the spring report of the association shows an "easing up”.
Academic Freedom Caldwell decried the lack of academic freedom in public schools and, in referring to higher education, said that "academic freedom has been helped mor« by private colleges and universities than by public ones".
He stated that the greatest issue facing this country for the next few years will be whether the people can recapture the belief in "fundamental freedoms".
His speech was the first in a series of Wesley Club programs on the theme "Can Education Survive?”. Furthen talks will be on such special subjects as loyalty oaths, and economic and other pressures on universities.

Frisco Applauds San Francisco critics gave her an outstanding press with such comments as (San Francisco News) "Operatic excitement mounted to a new high point last night when the Cosmopolitan Opera Company introduced Joy Kim, Korean soprano, in the title role of "Madame Butterfly." Other comments following the first night performance came from the San Francisco Examiner, “. . .Her voice was extremely pleasing. She sang with schooling and sentiment. The applause that rang out for her bespoke the likelihood that she will be a Cho Cho-san to reckon with in the future.” First Movie Joy’s talent finally caught the eye of a movie agent and she got a small part in the "High and the Mighty". After her movie role, she toured Europe as a representative of the State Department, performing in concerts and operaa. including great performances in "Madame Butterfly” as well. Once again the cinema stepped into tha scene and Joy was offered a part hi "Blood Alley", which stars John Wayne. During this period, arrangements were made for Joy to put in a reappearance in San Francisco in "Madame Butterfly”. Her success was even more phenomenal than the first time. Tours Furope> Joy is now touring Europe for the second time and is enjoying more success than ever before, according to press releases received by Mrs. Lillian Wilson, voice instructor in the School of Music. While attending SC, Joy not only majored in music, but was a “. . . devoted, serious and brilliant student,” according to Mrs. Wilson. Joy won the UCLA Young Artists Audition in 1954 and also the City Music Department Annual Audition. She was also on the council of the School of Mu- KUSC-FM TO TAPE RECORD ROCKET DEMONSTRATION Andre Stojka, KUSC FM special production director, will tape record a September 27 'NIKE' demonstration at Fort Mac Arthur's rocket establishment for KUSC airing on Oct. 3. The recorded tour is an opening feature of a new KUSC FM series entitled "Experience." announced production manager Glenn Adamson. “This is the first off-campus assignment of any proportion that we’ve attempted and is excellent material for the “Experience” series which will cover anything unusual, from news analysis by SC professors to such special events as the 'NIKE' tour. We may even experiment hi th.e reading of science fiction esoterica,” said Adamson. Several of tihe missle sites are now' active in the Southern California area for ground to air protection in event of enemy attack. The deadly rocket recently passed experimental tests against radio-controlled target planes. Published reports have attributed its pinpoint accuracy to an electronic device that enables it to seek out and destroy an enemy aircraft. KUSC’s Stojka, a 20 year old sophomore, is backed by six years experience in radio and tape recording and has been with the communications department for six months. The special production chief owns and operates his own recording company and is charged with the developing of all KUSC FM shows.

Cinema Instructor Uncooperative' With House Committee By Jim Karayn Representatives of the faculty government decided yesterday to uphold the decision of the Administration in the suspension of an instructor, who was "uncooperative” In testifying before the House Un-American Activities Subcommittee last June. Andries Deinum, former Instructor in cinema, had made a request to the faculty governing body, the University Senate, to review his suspension front the University during summer session. His suspension followed Dein-um’s questioning before the House Un-American Activities group before whom he admitted that he was a member of the Communist Party from early 1946 to the middle of 1950. Statement Made The Executive Committee of the University Senate issued a statement late yesterday explaining that they had "reviewed the request of Andries Deinum, and had considered all available information reievent to the request.” "The Committee is of the opinion that no further action should be taken" the memo ended. Deinum appeared before the House Un-American Activities on June 27. Moments after the testimony, he w'as suspended from his teaching duties in summer session. In a letter from Fred D. Fagg, Jr., the University president said that the suspension had resulted because Deinum had invoked the First and Fifth Amendments. His suspension was said to be in accordance with university policy in such eases of a faculty member refusing to answer questions put by a properly constituted governmental agency. Red Years Deinum states, though, that he willingly discussed his past membership in a “cultural study group" of the Communist Party for five years. He did, however, refuse to reveal the names of any of his associates in the Party, preferring to stand on the First and Fifth Amendments. lie declined to answer only questions where he felt a moral obligation to avoid naming or implicating persons who to the best of his knowledge were innocent ol illegal or immoral acts, Dienum said. The faculty meeting followed a wave of protest by cinema students over the firing of Deinum. Following the suspension on June 27, a student protest committee was organized by Kent MaeKen-z.ie and Merl Edelman. The student group has sent letters to all faculty members informing them of the suspension, and a letter of protest to Dr. Fagg. A certificate, which bears tht signatures of 51 students, has lieen circulated protesting Del-1 mini’s release. According to Mac-1 Kenzie all persons listed on the certificate were students of Dei-rum or acquainted with him in their work in the cinema department , Promotion OK’d Deinum came to SC over three years ago as a instructor. Hia promotion to assistant professor had been recommended and approved shortly before he was railed to testify. Robert O .Hall, acting head of the cinema department, said that Deinum had not signed his contract for the school year 1955-56 prior to his suspension from summer school. Hall pointed out that all faculty members under the position of associate professor are only hired on a year-to-year basis and must sign new contracta each academic year, Deinum’a auspension was un-for the six-week summer session, which ended July 30. Deinum contends, though, that he made his request for review during the month of August ,and that he was still an official member of the faculty, when he made the request. Contract End According to Deinum his contract for the academic year 1954-55 did not officially expire until August 31, 1955. Lester F. Beck, former head of the Cinema Department and the one who originally recommended Deinum for the faculty position, sent a letter to President Fagg on July 5, tolling of his concern in the matter. Beck’s letter pointed out that Deinum had made himself widely known throughout the nation for his job in gathering and cataloging cinema material for the university under the Farmington plan. Testimony Given At the beginning of his testimony before the Un-American body, he said, “I am not going to testify about my association with others wh le I was a Communist, and si.ice testimony about my activities while in the Party will necessarily involve others, I will not testify about my activities, either.” Deinum, a Netherlands-born naturalised citizen, came to this country in 1938, served with the OSS for more than a year in the London otfice, beginning in January, 1944. He was naturalized late in 1943. He graduated from Stanford University in 1942 and received his masters degree from the UCLA department of theater arts, specializing in the Cinema.

Mrs. Blackmore. who had opportunity to s jeak Spanish, FrencH, and German on the trip, reports that "students in foreign countries are anxious to come to the US to school and most of them have heard of SC.” 'I will wager 100-1 that sors, an organization, one of whose there will not be a Congressional citation in the case of Andries Deinum,” Dr. Russell Caldwell told the first dinner meeting of the SC Wesley Club last night. Caldwell, whose topic for the evening was "Are American Teachers Free to Teach?” was referring to the dismissal of cinema instructor Deinum after lie had admitted being a former Communist. The history prolessor said that he tell tile courts would tli row out any citaliuii directed toward lllm. The thought that anyone could make a mistake was forwarded by Caldwell, who is a former president of the American Association of ’University Proles- jobs it is to protect teachers employed at universities in this country. It is known that Deinum was considering taking his Ph.D. in history and Caldwell said that he "would be welcome in the department.” The A.A.U.P. was formed in 1915 and since that time has released and revised a paper on academic freedom and tenure. It also has a permanent committee on investigating cases where the academic freedom of college and university instructors lias been infringed upon . Up to the last few years this committee has investigated on the average of 50 cases a year; this number has tripled recently, but the spring report of the association shows an "easing up”. Academic Freedom Caldwell decried the lack of academic freedom in public schools and, in referring to higher education, said that "academic freedom has been helped mor« by private colleges and universities than by public ones". He stated that the greatest issue facing this country for the next few years will be whether the people can recapture the belief in "fundamental freedoms". His speech was the first in a series of Wesley Club programs on the theme "Can Education Survive?”. Furthen talks will be on such special subjects as loyalty oaths, and economic and other pressures on universities. |
