i    The results of a Student Senate questionnaire regarding roll
I taking in   classes will be   dis-
; cussed at next Monday's Senate
j meeting, according to Vice Pres-
• ident Thomas Fitch.
1    Students and faculty members
were asked to fill out the questionnaire asking how they felt
about class attendance, its effect
on   a   grade,   and   the   faculty
members   were   asked  whether
their department required roll-
taking.
Sixty - seven students said
that   they   favored   a   recommendation to abolish roll taking, while 27 opposed such a
recommendation.
'   Of the 17   faculty   members
returning questionnaires, 10 reported  they  always  take  roll,
and   six   said    they   take   roll
sometimes. Nine of the 17 said
attendance   influences   a   student's sradc in a course.
Stuffing Tonight
The curtain will open tonight
in Warriner Auditorium at 8:15
on the opening performance of
"The Solid Gold Cadillac."
The play which is being presented   by   Central's   honorary
dramatics    society,    Alpha   Psi
Omega, will continue its three-
night run Saturday and Monday.
Ruth Wimmer has the lead
of   Mrs.   Laura   Partridge   in
Central's   production   of   the
play which opened on Broadway   in   November    of 1953.
Judy Holiday played the lead
in the  1956 movie version of
"The Gold Cadillac."
The plot is one of an underling (Laura Partridge played by
Ruth   Wimmer)   upsetting   the
world of big business.
Mrs. Partridge is a decidedly
minor stockholder of the powerful General Products Company. She owns ten shares which
were willed to her by a fellow
resident of her boardinghouse.
Laura attends the stockholders' meeting, and though her
knowledge of big business is
very small, her common sense
prompts her to ask some pointed
questions.
Laura is convinced that the
company's new   chairman, T..
John   Blessington   played   by
Donald   Westbrook,   and   his
aides   are out   to   line   their
own pockets at the expense of
the corporation's stockholders.
While the heroine has her extreme doubts about the integrity
of the new   ruling   clique,   she
is entirelv sold on Ed McKcever.
played   by   Keith   Titus.   Mc-
Keevcr is going to Washington
to accept a post as a dollar-a-
year man.
To silence Laura at stockholders' meetings, the firm hires
her in a vague capacity and provides her with a secretary, Miss
Shotgraven played by Mary
Ann Collrcll.
Before Laura finishes in her
new post with the all-powerful
firm, she helps straighten out a
love affair, notifies Ed McKcever that the firm is being
mismanaged, gets involved in a
court case and finally comes to
McKcever's rescue at the last
stockholders meeting with tho
backing of the proxy votes of
the nonresident shareholders.
Admission to the play is by
season ticket, or single admission tickets.
Dr. J. Alan Hammack is the
director and Judith Toft is
assistant director. William love-
lace is the stage manager.
The cast for Alpha Psi
Omega's production is:

The topic of his address to the
President Rietmiller
| education fraternity and its
! guests will be "Mandates of a
| Golden Key."
1 President Rielhmillcr has
| been at Olivet since July 1,
11957. He came there from the
j Highland Park (Michigan)
I school system where he was
deputy superintendent.
APG Elects Officers
Alpha Phi Gamma, honorary
co-educational journalism fraternity at Central elected the following officers to serve next
year: president, Charles Coffman, Ferndale junior; vicei
president, Mickey Mikesell,
Grayling junior and secretary-
treasurer, Edie Carr, Lansing
sophomore.
A handbook, which has received the largest simultaneous
distribution any publication has
known, will reach every Central
student this week. The 32-page
booklet, "Ideology and Co-Existence," has already gone to 75
million homes in 24 languages
throughout the free world.
Prepared last fall at the Moral
Re-Armament World Assembly
Center at Mackinac Island, this
manifesto expresses the ideology
of democracy and presents an
answer to materialism and Communism.
It is designed to cut through
the confusion about co-existence
and put the free world on the
offensive with the winning idea.
The powerful effect of this
manifesto is evidenced by the
stringing reaction it has drawn
from Moscow. It lias been attacked more than a hundred
times in official Soviet organs
such as "Pravda," "Izvestia,"
Tass and Radio Moscow.
In two major trouble spots of
the world. "Ideology and Co-
Existence" has recently clashed
with the Communist strategy to
take over and seize control. In
Cyprus, former freedom fighters
distributed it by hand to every
Greek home, and in the South
Indian stale of Kerala three million people read it before the
recent elections in which the
Communists were defeated.
The late Phillip Murray, former President of the CIO and
of the United Steelworkers, described the fight of Moral Re-
Armament to arm democracy
with an ideology as "a call to
action against the divisive materialism which is our unseen
enemy. It must appeal to all
whose fight is a new social
order as an essential defense of
democracy."
J. M. Roberts, the A.P. news
analyst, in his column recently
described the massive distribution of "Ideology and Co-Existence'' as, "One of the most intense non-governmental ideological campaigns ever attempted."
Admiral William H. Standley,
former United States Ambassador to Moscow and Chief of
Naval Operations, echoes this
challenge when he says, "Moral
Re-Armament is a continuation
of the American Revolution on
a world scale. The choice for
America is Moral Re-Armament
or Communism."
