Raport Accepts Position With Alabama
The University will lose one of its most popular faculty members this spring when James H. Raport, instructor in physical education, leaves the campus to take a position on the faculty of the University of Alabama.
Since 1937 Report has been associated with University athletics, as varsity coach of swimming and fencing and as instructor in the physical education department. This semester he is teaching fencing, boxing, swimming, and tennis.
Mr. and Mrs. Raport will leave shortly after the school year ends in June. His official position at the southern university will be professor of physical education and director of intramurals.
His new work has not been completely outlined for him, but he will teach several physical education classes in addition to directing the intramurals. He is also planning to do research for the Army Air Corps.
Raport is graduate of the University, receiving his A. B. degree in 1936 and an M. A. degree in psychology in 1938.
Coached Swimming, Fencing
Graduated in '36
From 1937 to 1939, he coached the Haskell boxing squad, developing such boxers as Chester Ellis, former national Golden Gloves champion, and Ray Williams, a national A. A. U. semi-finalist.
Dr. R. H. Wheeler, chairman of the psychology department, led a discussion on "Has Social Evolution Reversed?" at a meeting of the new round table Symposium in the Memorial Union building Sunday night.
Wheeler Leads Discussion On Socialism
The psychologist pointed out that history demonstrates a rhythmic swing from one extreme to the other. "We have gone too far toward communism, fascism, and related forms of totalitarianism, and we are due for a breakdown of the movement. The present war situation is the beginning of the dying splurge of decadent totalitarianism, which has been gradually developing in the last 40 years."
Doctor Wheeler assumed an optimistic attitude on the subject. "We have to tear down to build up," he said. "Civilizations become decadent and intolerable before we remedy them."
Doctor Wheeler believes that the main events of this decade will be rebellion and civil strife rather than any further movement toward totalitarianism.
After the speaker had presented his views, he led the group on "Russian communism as opposed to democracy."

Art Students Design Posters For British Aid
Twenty posters for the "Save the Children" drive to aid Britain have been completed by students in the School of Fine Arts and are now on display on the Hill and downtown.
Freshmen and sophomore art students volunteered their services to make these posters which contain original slogans calling attention to the fact that a British child can be taken from the danger zone for the payment of $30 a year or $2.50 a month.
Replogle Talks On Ranger Work At Yellowstone
Wayne Replogle, freshman football coach, gave a talk yesterday to members of the Rotary club on Yellowstone National park, where he is employed summers as a United States forest ranger. He supplemented the talk with colored movies he took in the park last summer.
During the talk, Replogle said that one of the duties of the rangers was to "haul inquisitive sightseers" to hospitals, and warn future visitors not to become too chummy with the bears — especially the "grumpy grizzly."
He was introduced by Vic Hurt, assistant football coach.
