Dean Tells Listeners Cities Are Junales By JIM SPOO Of the Kmrmld Man has made his cities jungles of too many people, shabby housing, noise, and air pollution, said Norman Sund berg, dean of the School of Com munity Service and Public Af fairs, at a meeting of the Stu dent Planning Association Thursday. “Cities have been made jun gles unwittingly and now the problem is to control their growth for man’s betterment in stead of his destruction,” Sund berg said. His remarks came after the film, “Pandora’s Easy-Open Pop Top Box” had been shown. The film showed man’s grooming of the primeval jungles into tran quil rural homes and then man going awry as he developed choking air, murky streams, blasting noise and meiserably crowded cities. Sundberg told tj>p group, com posed of concerned students from many disciplines, “There is a danger that solutions to city problems will only create furth er problems. Planners must con sider what their plans do to the total complex of society.” "Planners must be very aware of what is going on in people’s lives so that they don’t destroy people's ways of life. I don't think we want planners to be czars. There have been ter rible examples of planning in cities,” Sundberg said. He compared ghetto children to inmates of mental hospitals. our bridal ensembles that are a symphony of harmony • yet direct opposites in appeal. In one, the aura of femininity is apparent in the graceful curves - the decorative small diamonds. In the other, the trim, tailored appearance is effective • marvelously so.

"Those of you who are con cerned with city planning arc courageous or f o o 1-hearty,” Sundberg said. He is concerned that this country docs not edu cate people to serve. The spirit of the Peace Corps is too rare, he said. Americans must under go a value change "to sec that their stake in society is more than their own profit. Our lead ers must initiate the spirit of service to solve city's’ prob lems,” he said.
