Professor Seeks Industrial Harmony
By Thomas Hough
An associate professor of business administration and human relations new to the campus this semester, is teaching students about the people who run machines.
Prof. Thomas E. Miller is teaching courses in the School of Business and the College of Liberal Arts.
"In these courses we are seeking better ways of gaining cooperation from people in industry by helping them improve their communications with each other," Prof. Miller said.
"The courses are designed to teach students to develop social skills in becoming more effective leaders and members of groups," he explained.
Prof. Miller's early background was not in business but in the field of general semantics and communications.
He earned his B.A. and M.A. at Northwestern University. As a student in human relations at Harvard in 1952-54, he studied communications in small work groups, where he engaged in extensive case studies.
Then he returned to NU as a research associate in case work. He received his PhD, in 1957. As a faculty member he taught undergraduate and graduate courses in human relations. He also created and taught a graduate course in Hospital Administration.
KU Leads in Study
"I came to KU because it is one of the leading schools in this field of study. Its program extends into both the College of Liberal Arts and the School of Business," Prof, Miller said.
"In teaching human relations in industry, we study collected case studies. Working with these concrete data we hope to develop the analytic and diagnostic skills of the students," he explained.
"We study the kinds of actual problems an administrator has to face. This will help in improving communications or relationships among staff and line personnel as well as improving relationships between management and labor."
Murphy Named Commission Head
Chancellor Franklin D. Murphy was named by President Eisenhower as chairman of the State Department's advisory commission on educational exchange yesterday.
Chancellor Murphy, a member of the commission now meeting in Washington, will replace R. H. Fitzgerald, president emeritus of Pittsburgh University, who submitted his resignation yesterday.
The five-member commission advises the secretary of state on international, cultural and exchange matters and programs. Chancellor Murphy's term on the commission expires in 1961.

The famed sewer system of Paris does not have anything on KU.
By Sara Pfeiffer
Storm Sewers Lend Parisian Air to KU
An elaborate maze of service tunnels beneath Mt. Oread connects almost every building on the campus. Small door-like openings near the ground marks entrances to the tunnel labyrinth.
These dank corridors have been the scene of many college pranks. Some of the tunnels end at women's roaming house. Q
The bank corridors have been the scene of many college pranks. Some of the tunnels end at women's rooming houses. On several occasions, it seems that male expeditions touring the tunnels have come upon these strategic outlets (entirely accidentally, of course)

These are but a few of the schemes that have been executed in the past, and a fertile imagination could see, endless possibilities in the tunnel system.
But unfortunately for the fun-loving, University authorities have eliminated such underground activities by closing all entrances and exits. The pranks are now mere memories.
Another favorite pastime involved blindfolding a fraternity pledge and placing him in a tunnel to find his way out.
