Swanson Awarded Sparks Medal
Dorothy Swanson, seventh se
mester education major, has been
presented the President Sparks
Medal for the greatest scholastic
improvement over the preceding
semester by Adrian 0. Morse,
University provost.
The award is presented every
semester to the student wh o
shows the greatest improvement
in attaining a 3.0 All-University
average.
Miss Swanson completed the
fall semester last year with a 1.70
AIM
(Ccmtinuecl from page one)
to its set-up, both enabling their
members to retain "independent"
status and increasing the strength
and prestige of AIM.
Two plans suggested for hav
ing these groups as part of• AIM
were:
1. Considering the men as reg
ular town residents to be repre
sented on the Board of Governors
through Town Council.
2. Setting up an additional
council to be composed of the
presidents of each of these living
groups with the new council's of
ficers sitting on the board.
Latter Plan Favored
The latter plan seemed to meet
with most favor. It was felt these
living units would require special
types of legislation which would
not pertain to other men living in
town.
One point of objection raised in
regard to AlM's absorbing these
living units was that it was feared
AIM could become "a dumping
ground" for "undesirable" frat
ernities—those either expelled or
not accepted by IFC.
Dennis said that according to
the subcommittee this would not
be the case. He said the committee
indicated that any group which
failed to abide by ATM's stan
dards would have its charter re
moved.

Ten men between' the ages of 26 and 40
were featured in a recent national magazine
article which presented a portrait of the
young scientist in America today. These
particular men are a sample of the most
brilliant young scientific minds in indutry.
It's interesting to note that three of the
ten are with Bell Telephone Laboratories,
three with General Electric and one each
with four - other companies.
The variety of opportunity in research
and other phases. of telephone work has
always attracted an unusually high per
centage of the nation's best young men.
Consult your Placement Officer about
opportunities with Bell Laboratories . .
also with the Bell Telephone Compariies,
