Koo Gives Views
Of Spiritual Life
Spiritual life can be expressed
as moving from man toward God,”
said T. Z. Koo, Religious Evalua
tion week speaker, in the Student
Union browsing room lecture
Wednesday night.
"It is a rich Experience to travel
through life toward God, and still
be in touch with man. One has
peace of mind; one looks at the
physical world with a new set of
values,” said Koo.
The Chinese scholar, statesman
and churchman listed four envi
ronments through which man
travels in his journey toward God.
The four stages, drawn from Chi
nese social and ethical background,
are the physical world, utilitarian
woild, ethical world and spiritual
world.
"Self is the keynote in the first
two worlds,” said Koo. The physi
cal stage is concerned with self
preservation, while self-gratifica
tion is the aim of the utilitarian
world.
However, in the ethical stage.
Low GPA Imperils
Lynch's Position
The position of Phil Lynch as
president of Skull and Dagger,
sophomore men's service honorary,
was in some doubt Wednesday.
Lynch failed to make a 2 point
GPA fall term, according to Si
Klhngson, counselor for men.
T nder University regulations,
students who fail to meet the min
imum academic requirements are
ineligible to hold campus activity
positions. Ellingson told the Emer
ald that he assumed this ruling
would apply to Lynch's case.
When contacted by the Emerald,
Skull and Dagger Vice-Pres. Bob
Slaier said that he had not pre
viously heard that Lynch had fail
ed to make his grades. Maier said
Lynch had asked him earlier this
term to take over some of the du
ties of president.
Maier expected clarification of
Lynch a status to be made some
time this week. He has called a
Skull and Dagger meeting to be
held at 7 p. m. today at Phi Kappa
Psi.
Lynch was out of town and un
able to be contacted by the Emer
ald.
self recedes and the keynote is a
feeling of mutuality, explained the
speaker. In the fourth and high
est state, there is a combination
of heaven and earth. The person
ebcomes “one with God," he said.
“The aim here is selflessness.”
"When the individual reaches
the last two stages, he does not
abandon the first two, the physical
worlds. Rather he views them with
a new set of values,” Koo stated.
Koo's address on “Spiritual Hon
esty” was the third in a group of
talks Wednesday for RE week on
"Responsibilities to Oneself.”
His appearance on campus dur
ing RE week was in conjunction
with the University Christian Mis
sion, which assisted the RE week
committee in choosing the Protes
tant speakers.

DuShane Objects
To New SU Plan
wny aoes the Student Union
board wish to change its present
method of selecting new school
representatives to the board?
That was the question posed in
board meeting Wednesday by Don
ald DuShane, director of student
affairs. Discussion resulted in a
tabling of the proposed changes in
the board’s perpetuation plan.
The revised plan, which would
have had its first reading Wednes
day, was sent back to the board
executive committee for further
study.
Changes in the present systeni
of board selection call for the en
tire board membership to inter
view and recommend prospective
members.
This would eliminate a joint AS
Senate to Select
New ASUO Veep
Heading the slate for tonight’s
senate meeting is the selection of
a new ASUO vice-president, a sen
ior class vice-president and a rally
board chairman, Tom Wrightson,
ASUO president reports.
The ASUO vice-presidential post
was vacated when Don Collin,
giaduate student in economics,
was forced to withdraw from
school to take over his father's
business. The senior class vacancy
was created when Elsie Schiller,
senior in journalism, resigned to
accept the position of editor of the
Emerald.
The post of the rally board
chairman was left vacant accord
ing to the ASUO constitution
which requires selection of a new
board chairman at the end of each
fall term. A1 Goldenberg, senior
in business, was the last chairman
of the board.
Petitions for the positions are
due at 5 p. m. today in the ASUO
office on the third floor of the Stu
dent Union. All petitioners will be
interviewed by the senate at their
meeting at 6:30 p. m.
Petitioners for the ASUO vice
presidency may be either giaduate
students or seniors. Only seniors
may petition for the senior class
position. There is no restriction
upon the class of the rally board
chairman candidates.
UO-SU boara committee which
previously has screened school
representative applicants. Recom
mendations from this committee
then go to the university president
for approval.
In raising objection to the pro
posed changes, DuShane said that
the suggested plan would make the
board practically self-perpetuat
ing.
“There is value in retaining the
present plan, which has given the
board members of high quality so
far,” he said.
The changes were being consid
ered, Chairman Andy Berwick
said, because the board felt its
position important enough for the
board itself, rather than a joint,
committee, to select its successeis.
Berwick also pointed out that
the ASUO president and himself
could, in effect, name the new.
board members, by virtue of there
respective appointments to the
joint screening committee.
Such a change in the perpetua
tion plan has been suggested in
past years, Berwick said.
Maintaining that “retention cf
ASUO in the machinery is the im
portant thing,” DuShane sugges
ted that the board might act as an
intermediary committee to pass
on the joint committee's recom
mendations before they go to the
University president for approval.
Under DuShane's plan, the joint
screening committee would select
two applicants for the entire SU
board to pass on.
Discussion of the plan came up
when Malcolm Montague, third
year law student, reporting from
a committee appointed last week
to study proposed changes, read
the group’s suggested revisions in
the plan.
If the plan did go through,
changes also would have to be
made in the ASUO constitution,
DuShane said. It, too, provides for
a joint screening committee.
One change proposed by Mon
tague's committee was not tabled
with the other suggested revisions.
Receiving its first reading Wed
nesday, this change in an amend
ment clause states:
“The aforementioned amend
ment (dealing with the method of
amending the perpetuation plan),
upon adoption, shall become ef
fective after approval by the uni
versity president.”

Quartet Will Perform
Mozart, Beethoven
string Quartets by Mozart, Ko
daly and Beethoven will be pre
sented by the Budapest String
Quartet at 8 p. m. today in the
Student Union ballroom. The con
cert is sponsored by the Failing
distinguished lecture committee
and the Student Union board.
Appearing with the quartet will
be Joseph Roisman, first violin;
Jac Gorodetzky, second violin;
Boris Kroyt, viola and Mischa
Schneider, violincello.
Opening the program will be i
“String Quartet in E-flat Major”
by Mozart. Also included in the
concert are Kodaly's “String Quar
tet, Op. 10, No. 2” and Beethov
en’s “String Quartet in E-Minor,
Op. 59, No. 2.”
All tickets for the concert were
gone Tuesday, SU board Secretary
Donna Shaffer reported. Admiss
ion to the concert is free, but by
ticket only because of the limited
seating capacity of'the ballroom.
The group presents over
concerts each year, including num
erous performances at the Library
of Congress and Mills college. In
1950 they toured Europe for tbn
first time since 1939 and they aie
currently planning a tour to Ja
pan, which they last visited in
1952.
The Quartet has become famous*
for its recordings of quartets by
Brahms, Mozart, Beethoven 'and
other masters. Approximately 30
0,000 of their records are sold each
year.
Despite the name of the Quar
tet, none of the participating mu
sicians is a Hungarian. All four
are Russians by birth and Ameri
cans by citizenship. Originally tbo
Quartet was Hungarian, but since
1936 no Hungarian has appeared
with the Quartet.
