How It's Done At Illinois Tech
CHICAGO, Ill.—(I.P.)—In a statement released to student leaders at Illinois Institute of Technology, President J. T. Rettaliata declared that "to strengthen student government, and make its operation more effective, it would appear desirable to clarify its relationship with the administration."
He issued the following statement of principles on which he said, student government at Illinois Tech is based:
Illinois Institute of Technology establishes certain regulations which are considered necessary for the best interests of all concerned. Individuals and organizations are liable for the observance of all applicable regulations.
The school reserves the right to end a student's enrollment or to withdraw privileges when it is judged to be in the best interests of the school.
the authority and responsibility of administering the affairs related to student behavior, welfare, and activities is delegated to the dean of students by the president of the school.
The dean of students may delegate certain authority and responsibility dealing with the operation of student activities to the Illinois Tech Student Association, but has the right to veto actions taken by these organizations or rescind this authority whenever the reputation, integrity, or welfare of the school is in jeopardy.
The administration will consult with the student government in the establishment, revision, and implementation of school regulations pertaining to student activities.
Student organizations may develop rules and regulations to govern their own affairs so long as they do not conflict with the rules and regulations pertaining to student activities of the school.
The president also said that he had given "considerable thought to the importance of student publications" and the "amount of time and effort" expended by the editors.
He announced that the editor of the Technology News, campus newspaper, is to receive either a full tuition scholarship for the semester in which he serves or $200 in cash.
The editor of the yearbook is to receive half-tuition scholarship for the academic year in which he serves or $100 in cash for each semester.
Truman Memoirs Tell Of Political Battles
WASHINGTON—(U.P.)—Ex-President Harry S. Truman in the second installment of his memoirs today sought to correct "misinformation about his early political life, including the idea that he was the product of a corrupt Missouri machine.
Unfolding for Life magazine the story of his rocky road to the White House, the former president told of an obstacle thrown in his already bumpy political path in 1940 by the late President Roosevelt. Mr. Truman said F. D. R. "encouraged" one of his chief political foes in Missouri when the Missouri senator was trying to win Democratic renomination.
Mr. Truman told how he successfully overcome the difficulty posed by Mr. Roosevelt by campaigning in behalf of New Deal policies. Later, in 1944, he and F. D. R. were running mates.
The former president acknowledged that the Kansas City Pendergast machine got him his start in politics, but said he was an independent agent thereafter.
He also acknowledged that the conviction of the late "Boss Tom" Pendergast was a political liability, but said it did not bother him personally because he felt he possessed an "unblemished record."
Tells of Childhood
The second installment of the Truman memoirs supplied details of his childhood, his World War I service, and his subsequent failure in the haberdashery business, a failure which he attributed to economic conditions brought on by the Harding administration.
Mr. Truman said F. D. R.'s attempt to curb his political future came early in 1340 when he decided to seek a second term in the Senate.
He said Mr. Roosevelt "was really encouraging Siark, my opponent." He referred to Lloyd C. Stark, then the Democratic governor of Missouri, who with Maurice Milligan, the U. S. district attorney for Kansas City, was defeated by Mr. Truman in the 1930 primary.
Says Little About Pendergast
Mr. Truman had little to say about the Pendergast machine, except to deny that he was subject to it. Shortly after he was elected presiding judge of Jackson County in 1923 with Pendergast machine support, the ex-President said, he got a call from Tom Pendergast saying some of Pendergast's friends were interested in some county road constructs under Mr. Truman's jurisdiction.
Mr. Truman said he told Pendegast and his friends firmly that contracts would go to the lowest bidders and a bi-partisan board
would see to contract performance.
When Mr. Truman first entered the Senate in 1985, he was nearly 51, but he said he felt "as timid as a country boy arriving on the campus of a great university for his first year."
His first term in the Senate gave him the happiest days of his life. He remembered with particular affection three democratic senators; Burton K. Wheeler of Montana, J. Hamilton Lewis of Illinois and Carl Hayden of Arizona, plus the late GOP Senate Leader Arthur H. Vandenberg of Michigan.
Happiest Days Of Life
From the time Mr. Truman entered grade school, he worked hard to learn and to please his teachers. By the time he was 14 he had read "all the books" in the Independence Library and gone through the Bible three times.
When he worked as a bank clerk before World War I he was paid $60 a month. He said he and his brother Vivian "usually bought a 10-cent box lunch and spent the noon hour eating it in a 5-cent picture show."
Grandma Myrtle Quits At $32,000
NEW YORK — (U,P)— Baseball expert Myrtle Power is richer today by $22,000.
But Myrt, who had won on previous program appearances by answering a series of baseball questions, decided to bow out and not try for the $64,000 question.
"My Dodgers have won a pennant," she said. "And I feel like I've won a pennant. You know, they're going in a World Series. I don't want to jinx them. I think I'll take the $22,000."
