Liftman Defends Social Sciences The social sciences are com ing closer together in that they look for universal aspects of man’s life in both the group and the individual, R. A. Littman, associate professor of psychol ogy, told the browsing room audience last night. Littman believes that cate gories of social science will not be merged because they work in different fie’ds. Littman spoke on “Where the Social Sciences Are Going.” R. J. Richman, instructor in philos ophy, was the discussion leader. “Social science has been very effective in the world today. Dur ing the war, it predicted that Negro and white soldiers could be integrated. “It has predicted the effects of the recent supreme court’s decision on segregation even to the troubled spots in the south. "Eight months before the atomic bomb was dropped on Hiroshima, social scientists knew that the Japanese were ready to surrender. However, this predic tion was disregarded by officials in Washington.” Social science uses “time-test ed methods,” Littman declared. Experiment is one of several methods available and is used wherever possible. “However,” Littman joked, “it woulcV not be ethical for social scientists to start a war in order to have a laboratory.” Ten cadets of the advanced infantry ROTC program will be presented with awards emble matic of distinguished military service. They are Robert Arndt, Jack Boettcher, Bradford Blaine, Ward Cock, Franklin Haar, Em erson Harvey, Robert Glasson, Richard L. Lewis, James Moore and Richard Yates.

I Rotenberg, a senior in chem ! istry, has served on the court I since his sophomore year in | school and last year was chair | man of the organization. ; Summers said that Rotenberg's | resignation was not the result of any misunderstanding between he and the ASUO Senate.
