Times Reports
On Oliver Book
Reviewing Prof. Robert T. Oli
ver's new book "Why War Came
in Korea," the New York Times
Sunday noted "a certain lack of
balance in an otherwise valuable
and concise report."
Oliver, head of the department
of speech at the College, became
acquainted with Korea through
his position as manager of the
Korean Pacific Press, "generally
accepted as the voice of Syngman
Rhee," according to the Times.
He has also been public relations
adviser to Rhee, the president of
the Korean Republic.
The Times critic found the book
valuable mainly for interpre
tative rather than historical Ma
terial. He calls Oliver "an un
biased Rhee partisan," with little
patience for the opposition.
Summirig up, the reviewer says,
"Mr. Oliver writes well and eas
ily, and is thoroughly at home
with his subject. Reflecting, as he
apparently does, Dr. Rhee's opin
ions, Mr. Oliver has made an im
portant contribution to under
standing five significant years of
Korea's long and troubled his
tory."
"Why War Came in Korea" is
one of three new books by Oliver.
The other two are speech texts,
"Persuasive Speaking" and a
third revision of "The New Train
ing for Effective Speech."

Trustee Approval Of SU
Ends 13 Year Campaign
When the Board of Trustees
gave final approval to the plans
for the Student Union building
at its weekend meeting, it marked
the close of a 13-year student
campaign for the construction of
adequate recreational facilities for
undergraduates.
The board's action over the
weekend came as somewhat of
an anti-climax, for it had been
taken for granted that the long
sought SU building would finally
be realized when all-College cab
inet approved a student assess
ment last May. The trustees had
approved rough sketches ,at their
June 9 meeting.
Agitation for a student union
began 13 years ago .with the edi
tors of Collegian acting as the
ring -leaders, according to George
Donovan, manager of associated
student activities and student
union. The next move in the
campaign icame in 1939 when 89
per cent of 800 students ques
tioned favored an SU and 84 per
cent were willing to pay for it.
In 1939, too, Donovan, started
the "S.S. Dry Dock" in the base
ment of Old Main. The "iDry
Dock" was set up as, a night club
and a fifty cents cover charge
guaranteed a couple a table and
a floor show of professional cali
ber. .
Student agitation for an SU
building reached its peak in 1946
when 2700 signatures were col
lected on a petition agreeing to
add $5 to student fees in order to
construct and maintain an SU.
Shortly after, the trustees ac
cepted a report recommending
the $5 fee and voted "to continue
to study the problem further."
In April, 1947, students voted
10-1 in favor of financing the SU
rather than a field house. The
following month the trustees re
ceived a letter from the all-Col
lege president urging a fee to
fi
nance the building. Two months
later the trustees named a com
mittee to study the matter, with
Samuel K. Hostetter as chairman.
Aided by a.20-man student group,
Hostetter went to work in out
lining the needs of the building.
February, 1948, saw the erec
tion of the TUB—the Temporary
Union Building—a surplus army
building, as a center for student

activities. By June of the same
year architects began to revise
and cut plans for a $4,500,000 SU
building.
In February of 1950, upon the
suggestion of the trustees, the SU
committee began paring down the
plans to a $2,000,000 "first unit."
The first means toward financing
the project was taken in April
when all-College cabinet ap
proved an insurance plan' 'by
which subscribers would assign
the first $lOO of benefits to the
SU building fund.
May, 1950, saw all-College cab
inet take the final step to assure
the financing of - the building by
approving a student assessment
which provided that undergradu
ates pay $7.50 per semester for
the current school year, and $lO
per semester thereafter until the
project is paid for.

Froth is here again. With its
usual and unusual features, jokes.
and other alleged bits of humor,
it will be on sale today at various
stands on campus and in front
of the Corner room.
Freshmen and the tearing out

of humor in such features as "The
Wearing of the Green," 'Fresh

and "It is Forbidden."
Not to neglect the Korean situ
ation, Froth has included 'a. lea

Froth's regular features, "Old

along with cartoons help to 'make
