Wife-Beating Problem Shows
How Joe College Has Changed
East Lansing, Mich., Jan. 3 (U.R) Today's college student is
a relatively carefree individual despite an occasional urge to
beat up the wife, according to Dr. Albert I. Rabin, Michigan
State college psychologist.
Rabin, head of Michigan State's psychology clinic, credits a
better economic situation thanfr-
existed during the lean '30s withlcd.- Others are bothered by
giving the modern scholar a ro
sier outlook on life.
Despite the comforts afford
ed by a fatter purse, however,
college life still is not a bed of
roses for the average student,
Rabin pointed out.
He' or she, still is plagued by
such ancient academic thorns as
inability to concentrate, disin
terest in studies and pursuit of
the opposite sex.
Add to those pitfalls the more
recent problems of campus mar
riages and you get some idea of
what the modern Joe College or
Betty Co-ed must go through to
get a diploma.
One of the main functions of
Rabin's clinic is to help stum
bling students clamber over all
types of mental hurdles.
"Since our clinic opened last
January," Rabin said, "we have
helped students solve problems
ranging from acute stage fright
to wife-beating."

Search for Beauty Foils
Americans, Artist Believes
Chicago, Jan. 3 (U.B A Viennese-born artist says Americans
are "hungry for beauty" but they are thwarted when they seek
beauty in their workday lives.
They are spending more and more time at home in an effort
to escape, said James Seeman, a mural painter with an urge to
create a whole new atmosphere
in the average home.
"What does the average per
son see in the course of a day?
Ugly buildings, railroad and
streetcar tracks, smoky skies
things that assault the senses,"
Seeman said.
The average person seeks
refuge in his home except when
he can get away for a vacation.
But for years, the atmosphere
around most homes, has been
drab and uninteresting, Seeman
said.
Now Americans can get awav
from their uninteresting every

"People who have tried it say
it works wonders," Seeman said.
"They say it is so refreshing,
exhilarating to walk into a room
that has personality and not just
four drab walls."
It is inexpensive, too, he said,
because while the wallpaper it
self costs a little more, it re
quires no pictures and only the
simplest furniture and rugs. Jl
Seeman said he would like to
go to Hawaii for his next de

"Plain walls, as someone one
