After two unsuccessful at
tempts, the Summer Activities
Council convened last Wednesday
with .in students swamping Roland
Parker Lounge in Graham Me
morial. Art Shields was elected chair
man of the Council. Other elected
officers were Emily Fritz, secre
tary, and Martha Fortune, pub
licity chairman.
The members, mostly repre
sentatives of campus dormi
tories, fraternities, and sorori
ties, were guided through the
inaugural meeting by Sam Ma
gi.l, assistant dean of student
affairs, and by Ray Jeffries, as
sistant to the dean of student
affairs.
Magill explained that the Coun
cil would operate under a $1000 j
budget drawn from student ma
triculation fees. He added that the
summer s c a n n e a activities
include lecture;;, concerts, films
and drama grouos and are so
named because thej are planned
far in advance.
Out of a wide range of con
ceivable activities, the Council
decided that those most likely
to succeed were dances, picnics,
swim-parties, and co-rec carni
vals. A direct outcome of the meet
ing is tonight's dance and water

On TV's Role
By KAY ROBINSON
Do you know all the answers?
There are many who believe
that no one knows all the ntmm
to the questions concerning edu
cational television.
However, Harold Gores, presi
dent of the Educational Facilities
Laboratory, Inc. - or- Nw York.
and Charles Siepman, noted au
thority on educational TV, spoke
their beliefs on this matter Fri
day at the Inter-School TV Pro
gram meeting here.
Is your school student centered,
subject centered or a combina
tion of both?
Gores, speaking on facilities
used in educational TV, descrived
the combination school by using
the "Disneyland" school with its
bright colors and the pie-shaped
school as examples.
Gores told teachers that there
are many shaped schools rapid
ly coming to the United States.
In the North many of the
schools are already built. He
believes that soon we will move
away from the brick buildings
and will use materials that will
give and adequate space of TV
classes.
Changing the topic, Siepman
arose and stated in his native
English tongue, "You are behind.
I recommend a bulletin that tells
what we've learned about educa
tional TV so that the people in
Omaha wil know what we're do
ing in Miami."
Continuing he added. "Educa
tional TV is bringing to light th3
lack of capacity of classroom
teachers. Seeing the TV teacher
the classroom teacher says. There
but for the grace of God go V.
And so they are scared and be
come scapegoats."
Siepman believes that the tel
evision classes must be better
than the classrooms by a com
fortable measure before they
will be accepted by the public
Closing he said. 'There is a
