Resolutions for 1953 See Page 4 Vol: 53, No. 66 Statesman To Talk at Next Forum Walter H. Judd, Republican congressman from Minnesota will discuss foreign ‘ affairs at the third Community Forum program • Jan. 9 in Schwab Auditorium. • A physician and surgeon, Judd is as well known in his home state as a politician. He spent several years as a medical missionary in the Orient. The congressman has been lecturing on foreign policy and U.S. interests in the Pacific since 1938. Study Scheduling-Methods Considerable revision is now underway in the forum constitu tion to enable more students to participate on forum committees. Under the present organization most of the work is left to a few interested townspeople. Low tick et sales this ye a r .suggested a marked decline in student interest, according to Thomas Durek, as sistant forum chairman. The for um hopes to revive that interest and encourage more students to take advantage of the informative lectures.- A committee composed of Elton S. Carter, general forum chair- Man; Dr. Gerald B. Stein, tickets chairman; and Durek is also studying the possibility of chang ing the methods for scheduling speakers. According to the pre sent plan, speakers and agencies are contacted during the summer when few students are on campus to voice their opinions. Ask Continuous Participation Also, by summer most big-name speakers have - arranged other commitments for their lecture tours. The committee hopes to complete the fall forum schedule by the end of the spring semester. A third plan for revision calls for continuous participation on the forum committee for more than one year. Durek said many problems could be eliminated if the entire committee was not changed every year. A suggestion was made to appoint an assistant student chairman each year to serve , the next year as student chairman. Durek, .who graduates in. Janu ary, has handed in his resignation to All-College Cabinet. He will be succeeded as assistant chair man by James Dunlap.
