One of the first hospital social service groups organized in the United States,- -
the University's' department originally was suggested in 1911 when Dr. Elias p. Lyon,~ -
dean of the University medical school, appointed a committee to consider the- ..
establishment of such an organization at the University. Committee members lrfere
Doctors Richard Olding Beard and Jennings C. Litzenberg•.- -
Established in 1913 under the direction of Dean Lyon, the department employed.. -
Iliss l~ion Tebbets of the St.Paul Associated qharities in 1915 to direct and develop
the social service 'lork at the Universlty;Hospitals.(HORE)
-2-·
Sooial Servioe deaprtment--
Dr• Litzenberg , head of the department of obstetrics and gynecology, was the
first to employ one of the department1s workers. The second was assigned to work in. . _.- .
the venereal.~s~aseclinic, and the third was requested, soon after, tor service in
the heart clinic.
At the request of Dr. O~a Hansen of the h~~t cli~c and Dr. Archibald Beard,
who '-lorked with diabetic patients, the heart clinic social worlcer was asked to- - -
assist with the diabetic work. The use of insulin had not been discovered at this
time, and diet was the only known control for diabetes. The social worker, by- - -
enlisting the assistance of nutrition students from the St.Paul campus I home
economics classes, initiated, between these two University departments, the- - - -
cooperation which continues today, Hiss Baker said.- -
With the departments of pediatrics and neurology next requesting the assistance
of social workers, the new department was firmly established by 1918. In addition
to the director, lIiss Tebbets, five workers were f>.mployed.
Notes from Hiss Tebbets' annual director's report in 1920 show, even in those
days, the constant problem of shortage of workers: llDuring the past year, follOWing
the readjustments necessary during the war period, the department has gradually
returned to a somewhat normal condition. \Ie again have full-time workers on duty in
the dermat.ology, obstetrics and pediatrics clinics of the dispensary. A fourth
worker ha:: been on duty for some months in the tuberculosis clinic three days
weekly, and also handles 'general l cases. A fifth worker assists half-time each in
dermatology and obstetrics departments, where the load of work really demands t,..lO
full-time people."
Niss Tebbets continues: liThe summer months of the year were marked by louting
work', whereby arrangements were made for 63 patients to have outings of a week or. -
more. These were made possible by the generosity and cooperation of such outside
agencies as the International Sunshine soci.ety• •••••• the fall, winter and spring
quarters involve not only our '-Iork with patients, but student work as well. From the
academic college we had si;,~ sociology students \-1ho '.fere assigned to us for three(1l0RE)

hours weekly as well as 14 students from the school of nursing who spent from one to
two weeks with us. Three students fron the American Red Cross came in for special
work and many volunteers should be given special credit for assistance they have
given when called upon in the emergencies which continually arise."
When the University Hospitals Out Patient department moved into its new
quarters in 1929, the social service department was reorganized with J-.1iss Frances. -
Honey as its netv director. The services were extended to all medical departments of
the hospitals and all staff members were required to have master's degrees.. --
These were depression times, Hiss Balcer recalls, when social work in the. . . - ~
hospitals required ingenuity as resources were limited----problems tragic. Two. -
accomplishments of the University Hospitala group were the support--with facts and
figures--- of Director Amberg's sponsorship of a bill in the state legislature- -
requiring the State Board of Health to license all state nursing homes, and the- ----
establishment, through the hospital's eye clinic, of the Hinnesota Society for the
Prevention of Blindness.
At this time, as there were no centralized state, county or local organizations
to assist the ill, the social service department staff had to work with 4.35 county
commissioners. In one instance, 86 indiViduals were contacted to make discharge
plans for just one patient, according to department records. The staff was
responsible for interpreting the effects of illness, the physician's recol:1Il1endations
and the needs of the patients to Child llelfare board members, county commissioners
and, later, to the ne\-l county tvelfare staffs. Patient by patient, they provided a
knowledge of disease and the needs of the ill people which helped make the
Minnesota Public Assistance program liberal.
The University Hospitals Aw3.liary to the Faculty Homen's club, organized in
1930, has donated money, clothing and services through the years. Currently headed
b~r Mrs. John J. Bittner, the group, Hiss Baker stated, "has been our right hand in
providing for emergencies that we could not handle ll •

FollOWing ~lorld \'1ar II, modern scientific medical practice modified the focus- -

The Social Service department staff contributed--- by social planning--- to- . - -
prevent unnecessary recurrences of illness and assisting the patients to achieve- .
the maximum benefits of treatment. It continued to re-evaluate its function to
meet the changes in medical care, the community welfare structure and the new- -developments in social work practioe.
With the development of community social agencies, the depar'bnent established.. - .-
a "working partnership" of connnunication on a policy level as well as on case
interpretations. State and local agencies were provided with written directives on
pertinent administration policies and on new services in University Hospitals.
Planned programs were held for county commissioners , judges, social workers,
county board members and other interested groups. A connnittee of representatives
from the State Depar'bnent of ~le1fare and the administration of University Hospitals
was organized to consider plans and programs of mutual concern.
The depar'bnent initiated two organizations in this period: the Hinnesota

MUMPS vmus AS POSSIBLE CAUSE OF FATAL CONGENITALHEART DEFECT SUGGESTED BY UNIVERSITY OF MINN. STUDY
(FOR REIEASE FRIDAY, APRIL 12)
Minneapolis .-- The possibility that children of mothers exposed to
mumps virus during the first three months of pregnancy will be born with the
inevitably fatal heart deformity known as endocardial fibroelastosis is
suggested by recent clinical findings of three University of Ninnesota
pediatric cardiologists.
In a report published in the April issue of the Journal of Pediatrics,
Dr. George R. Noren, National Heart Institute trainee in pediatric cardiology,
and Drs. Paul Adams, Jr., and Ray C. Anderson, associate professors of
pediatrics, presented evidence that mumps infection of the fetus may cause the
disease which results in a thickening of the heart lining and the formation
of elastic fibers inside the heart, predominantly on the left side.
Each year, some 35,000 children are born in the United States with
congenital heart defects. About 1 per cent of these, or from 350 to 400,
suffer from endocardial fibroelastosis. The majority of these die in the
first year of life, and almost none reach maturity.
The Minnesotans t study was prompted by the observation of a St. louis,
Mo., pediatrician, Dr. D. L. Thurston, concerning the positive skin reaction
to mumps antigen in an infant with endocardial fibroelastosis.
Drs. Noren, Adams and Anderson measured the skin reactivity response of
30 infants and children, 28 of whom were under 2t years of age, whom they
injected with a small amount of mumps skin testing material. None of the
children had a history of having had mumps.
(MORE)
MUMPS VIRUS STUDY - 2 -
The group was composed of 11 children without evidence of heart disease
and 19 children with a diagnosis of congenital or acquired heart disease.
Of these 19, nine were children with endocardial fibroelastosis.
Every one of the nine children with a diagnosis of endocardial
fibroelastosis developed a positive skin reaction at the site of the mumps
antigen innooulation 24 to 36 hours after the injection. The mothers of two
of these children had a definite history of exposure to nnnnps during early
pregnancy, and another had a questionable history of exposure. Another had
mumps during the first weeks of pregnancy. This ~Tas oonfirmed by rising
antibodies against mumps in the mother's blood as her pregnancy progressed.
One child with a diagnosis of a different type of congenital heart
ailMent, an interventricular septal defect, also reacted positively to the
mumps antigen skin test, the doctors reported. This child's mother had had
mumps during the third month of her pregnancy.
None of the children ~r.i.th other heart problems and none of the 11 control
children---who showed no evidence of heart disease---demonstrated more than a
relatively slight reaction to the mumps antigen innoculation, according to
the researchers.
Positive skin reactivity to killed mumps virus, the lIinnesota doctors
point out, has been defined as evidence of a previous mumps infection whether
or not a history of nnnnps infection in the individual has been recorded. Thus,
it is indicated that the nine children with endocardial fibroelastosis, none
of whom had a history of mumps since birth, evidently were infected by mumps
virus prior to birth---probably in the formative weeks or months immediately
following conception.

The :Hinnesota scientists consider the results of their study a "very
promising lead" which opens up ma~ areas for further investigation in the
fields of immunology, virology, preventive medicine and obstetrics. Because
of the preliminary nature of their data, they decline to comment on potential
practical applications of their findings, such as the possibility of
immunization of women of child-bearing age against mumps.
The University of Hinnesota study was supported financially by the
Minnesota Heart Association and the Dwan Family Fund.

A National Cystio Fibrosis Researoh Fund (NCFRF) grant of $22,333 has assured.
oontinuation of the Cystio Fibrosis Regional Care, Researoh and Teaohing Center at
the University of Hinnesota Hospitals, aooording to Dr. Warren J. Warwiok, assistant
professor of pediatrios in the University medical school and center director.
The University center is one of 30 cystic fibrosis oenters looated. in medioal
sohools and their affiliated teaohing hospitals throughout the United States. All
have been established with the help of the national organization and are maintained
with its support.
The new award, seoond University grant renewal, was presented to Dr. Warwick by
Ray Kapala, 7645 Upton ave. ,S., Hinneapolis ,Minn., Cystic Fibrosis fund ohapter
president.In making the prosentation, ~{apala said, "Dozens of children in this part of the
oountry are alive today beoause they were for.tunate enough to be born in an area where
a oystic fibrosis center exists. It is our hope and belief that through the work of
this center and others like it, an eventual control for this disease will be found".
Cystic fibrosis, leading cause of pulmonary death in children, :i.s an inherited
disease affecting the glands of external secretion---the mucus, sweat and saliva
glands. Without early disgnosis and intensive medical and home treatment, half the
children born with cystic fibrosis die before they are five years old, but when the
disease is identified and treated in its initial stages, patients may live into
their teens, according to Dr. 1,'Tarwick. Some survive into adulthood.
In announcing the renewal of the NCFRF grant, Dr. Warwidk commented: "Until1938, cystic fibrosis was mistaken for various other diseases. Children who diedfrom it were thought to be dying of pneumonia, bronchial asthma, celiac diseasesor other oauses. Now that cystic fibrosis has been identified, medical researchworkers are trying to discover the altered chemical and enzymatic factors that produce the primary glandular malfunction. \fhen these are known, the means of controlis virtually certain to follow ll

In addition to providing facilities for research, the regional centers striveto iJIlprove methods of patient care.

MINNESOTA 'U' SCIENTISTS DESCRIBE NEltlTRANSPLANTATION BARRIER 'BREAKTHROUGH'
(FOR RELEASE P. M. ,THURSDAY, APRIL 18)
Minneapolis --- A breakthrough in crossing the immunological barrier to
transplantation, which could make possible human organ transplants within one to
two years, was reported Thursday (April 18) by a University of Minnesota
physiologist at the Ir7th annual meeting of the Federation of American Societies
for Experimental Biology in Atlantic City, N. J.
Dr. Carlos Martinez, physiology professor, described how he and associates
at the University of Minnesota medical school had induced tolerance to transplants
in mice by repeated injections of non-living spleen cell material taken from a
donor strain of animal.
Dr. Martinez said the successful experiments had overcome the strongest as
well as the weakest genetical barriers in mice to acceptance of foreign tissue.
He predicted the Minnesota group will begin applying the techniques to humans
within a year or two.
He explained that successful use of non-living cells was a breakthrough in
experiments to date to produce immunological tolerance to tissue transplants.
It is the immunity mechanism that makes the body reject grafted tissue or
transplanted organs from one person to another, except in the cases of identical
twins who are identical immunologically.
"Up until seven months ago, we had thought only living tissue could produce
immunological tolerance,;' Dr. Hartinez said. "The danger of injecting live cells,
however, was that the donor material could induce immunological disease in the
recipient by attacking the host tissue, making it susceptible to infection which
could severely damage its health or result in death."

MARTINEZ

In an interview in Hinneapolis prior to the Federation meeting, Dr. Robert A.
Good, University research professor of pediatrics who worked with Dr. Martinez,
predicted if the technique can be applied to man "it could usher in the
transplantation era ll •
IIIts application to humans, tl he added, "seems only a technical problem."
The Minnesota experiments with mice in building tolerance to transplants
from a specific donor involve injections of large doses of spleen cells from the
donor strain which have been disrupted, or broken up, by several cycles of
freezing and thawing. Injections of the dead cell materials are then given
repeatedly to the recipient over a period of several weeks.
Dr. Hartinez explained that the disrupted cell material is incapable of
producing antibodies, so cannot harm the recipient, but at the same time it still
contains the tissue antigens necessary to condition the recipient to accept
homografts containing the same antigens.
Antigens are substances within cells capable of producing specific
immunological reaction. Given in small quantities, antigens stimulate the
immunity mechanism by triggering the production of antibodies. Given in large
doses, as in the Minnesota experiments with tissue antigens, they paralyze the
capacity of the recipient to react to the specific antigen with which it has
been injected.
As a check to determine that the non-living cell material could not harm
the recipient, Dr. Martinez' group attempted unsuccessfully to induce
immunological disease in anL~als injected with donor cell material.
One of the problems in applying the procedure to man will be to obtain
enough cell material from an individual donor, acoording to Dr. Martinez and
Dr. Good.

MARTINEZ - J -
The fact that non-living cells can produce tolerance could mean the door is
open to use of any kind of tissue for build.ing tolerance, Dr. Hartinez said. It
had been believed that only lymphoid tissue, such as the spleen, could produce
tolerance because of its ability for rapid cell growth.
"Now we think we may be able to use any tissue---lung, kidney, liver, skin,"
Dr. Martinez said.
Dr. Martinez and Dr. W. D. Kelly, surgery professor, are working on the
possibility of using whole blood, of which the white blood cells have been destroyed,
as a tolerance builder for tissue transplantation.
"By using blood," Dr. Martinez explained, "we would have a permanent source
of conditioning material in the donor."
First experiments at the University of Minnesota with the disrupted cell
material were conducted on animals in which the histocompatibility (the ability
of accept foreign tissue) differences were weakest---that is, from a male ot one
strain to a female of the same strain.
The adult female mice vTere injected with disrupted male donor spleen cells.
One group of the adult females received a single dose of spleen material and one
week later skin graft from male donors. Another group received injections three
times a week for four weeks. At the end of the first week, the injected mice were
grafted with male skin. Finally, a third group received no treatment and was
similarly grafted with male skin.
It was found, Dr. Martinez reported., that most animals receiving either a
single injection of spleen material or no treatment rejected the male transplant.
By contrast, those repeatedly injected accepted permanently the male transplant
in most instances.

MARTINEZ - 4 -
In later experiments, where the genetic differences were stronger, as
between animals of different strains, injections were given over a longer period
of time, with up to 40 injections over a l2-week period.
In those cases where the grafts have not taken after injections, Dr.
Martinez believes it is just a matter of increasing the mnount of the injected
material in order to induce tolerance. He is conducting further experiments to
test this supposition.
Because inbred strains of mice are used in the experiments it has been
possible to use injected material from several animals of the same strain. In
humans, the conditioning material as well as the skin or organ to be transplanted
to another individual would have to come from the same donor.
The Minnesota group has been conducting experiments to produce
immunological tolerance in adult life during the last five or six years.
"It did not seem useful to us to look at the embryo and the neonate which
had previously been believed to be the only stage at which immunological
tolerance could be induced, II Dr. Good said, ''because it is most often in the
adult that transplantation becomes desirable."
Other collaborators in the current experiments with Dr. Martinez and
Dr. Good are June M. Smith and I1ichael Blaese•

Minneapolis --- A statistical center has been organized at the University of
Minnesota to provide research assistance to faculty and students and to non-
University agencies.
Under the direction of Professor I. Richard Savage, the center will establish
permanently a University statistics department service which provides consultation
in collecting and analyzing data and in formulating theoretical models underlying
experiments.
The center has been organized under the direction of a committee appointed by
University President O. Meredith Wilson. Head of the committee is Reuben L. Hill,
sociology professor. The faculty of the statistics department will participate as
consultants for the center, and three graduate students are assisting in the center
as interns. Professor Savage is full-time director.
"Our business, on a consulting basis," Professor Savage said, "is the
application of the best statistical techniques to problems under study in various
sciences."
The University's statistics department itself is only four years old.
Establishment of the center is an indication of the growing role this academic
discipline is playing in research in several departments.
"Since vJorld ':1ar II, U Professor Savage said, "many of the sciences have become
more and more probabilistic or experimental in content, with an emphasis on 'model
making' as well as careful design of experiments and the analysis of the resulting
data."Professor Savage said statisticians differ on their definitions of probability.
His own definition is that probability nis a refiection of what a well-informedperson is willing to risk on the outcome of possible events".
"A scientist must weigh the possible consequences of various kinds of researchas well as detemining guidelines for the actual investigation," Professor Savageexplained. llAfter talking with a Client, it might be determined the entire problemas arranged might not yield the anticipated results and should be rearranged."

MINNESOTA 'U' STUDY LINKS CONGENITAI.DISORDERS, CHROMOSOME ABNORl>1ALITIES
(FOR RELEASE 12 NOON. SUNDAY. iU'RIL 28)
UNIVERSITY OF MINNESOTANEWS SERVICE-214 MORRILL HALLMINNEAPOLIS 14, MINNESOTATEIEPHONE: 373-2137APRIL 26, 1963
Minneapolis --- Results of large-scale testing at University of
Hinnesota Hospitals showing that patients suffering various types of congenital
disorders and leukemias have chromosomal abnormalities were reported Sunday
(April 28) to the ArJerican Association of Pathologists and Bacteriologists.
The report was given at the association's annual meeting in Cincinnat~,
Ohio, by pathologist Dr. Jorge J. Yunis, director of the University of l1innesota
Clinical Genetics LaboratorJ in the Department of Laboratory Medicine.
His paper, entitled nChromosomes in Disease", contains findings of the
first University of Hinnesota survey, undertaken in 1962, on chromosomal
abnormalities. The Hinnesota study is one of the few large hospital surveys
in the United States in what is a new field of pathology and medicine. Of 120
selected cases of suspected chromosomal defects studied during 1962 at the
University of Minnesota, 25 per cent bore such abnormalities.
Chromosomal abnormalities have become the SUbject of research only in the
last few years since the discovery in 1956, by Tijio and Levan that there are
46 chromosomes in human cells, instead of 48 as previously believed. This
discovery was due chiefly to improved techniques for the separation of
chromosomes grown in tissue culture.
It was only in 1959 that the first chromosomal abnormality was reported,
which was in cases of mongolism. Since then, several conditions have been shown
to be associated with chromosomal defects, which are usually manifested by a
variation in the number or structure of chromosomes.
(MORE)
CHROHOSOMES IN DISEASE - 2 -
Chromosomes are small bodies within each cell which determine boqy
characteristics, including sex. They are identified by pairs numbered 1-22
and a 2Jrd pair called sex chromosomes, because they are sex determining,
identified as XX in females and XY in males.
Dr. Yunis said the stuqy of chromosomes is now an important factor in the
diagnosis of abnormalities of sex development, intersexuality, sterility and
some types of mental deficiency. Chromosomes give the genetic counselor a
valuable tool in cases of mongolism. It is known that most cases of mongolism
are due to non-disjunction (the failure of two chromosomes to separate during
cell division), are sporadic and appear with increasing frequency in relation
to the mother's age. A few cases, however, are of the hereditary type. These
cases, USUally found among young parents having mongoloid children, are due to
the fact that one chromosome of pair 21 in the mother's cells is attached to a
chromosome of another pair and when transmitted into the next generation can
give rise to mongoloid children.
The Minnesota studies showed 14 of 19 newborn patients referred for
possible mongolism bore 47 instead of the usual number of 46 chromosomes. Two
familial cases of mongolism also were observed by Dr. Yunis. The first one was
suspected because the mongoloid child had a mongoloid maternal uncle. The
clinically normal mother of the child had a chromosomal abnormality in which a
No. 21 chromosome was attached to a No. 22 chromosome. The second family was
studied because of the presence of mongoloid offspring of t~ clinically normal
sisters. The chromosome studies of both sisters showed a NO e 21 chromosome
attached to a No. 15 chromosome.
(MORE)
- ~--~~-----------------------------------
..
CHROMOSOMES IN DISEASE - 3 -
Dr. Yunis' study supported earlier findings that most cases of leukemia
bear chromosomal abnormality. In his study, all patients affected with
chronic myelogenous leukemia possessed the so-called "Philadelphia chromosome",
a shortened No. 21 chromosome.
In searching for new chromosomal abnormalities, Dr. Yunis found an
anomaly previously: undescribed. The case was that of a 40-year-old woman
with multiple cancers of the skin and bone abnormalities. In this case,
the number of chromosomes was normal but one of the No.1 chromosomes
had an extra piece. Four other members of the patient's family showed the
same chromosomal anomaly, but did not exhibit any signs of disease afflicting
the patient.
Approximately one out of 200 newborn babies are noH known to bear a
defect of ~he sex chromosomes. These sex anomalies are usually due to the
presence in excess or defect of X chromosomes and commonly produce sterility.
Other types of s~x anomaly are not due to a chromosomal abnormality but
the external sex characteristics may be f,uch in some of them as to give an
erroneous impression of the true sex. the true sex can now easily be
determined by the study of chromosomes.

In writing to Dean Spilhaus of his idea, Taylor said: "Remembering my student
days, there were some instructors who made drudgery out of Hhat should have been an- -
extremely interesting subject and others who were a real inspiration to their
students. I believe I have heard of some schools where there is an award for these
outstanding and inspiring teachers ••••• such a person might be a laboratory assistant
or instructor or he might be the most learned full professor on the staff."
"I find that the suggestion you make is an excellent one", Dean Spilhaus. -
commented in thanking Taylor. "We do not have too many ways in which \ole can express.- -
tangible recognition for excellence in teaching".
The Distinguished Teaching Award citation to Professor Ney--"To Edward p. Ney:
for his inspiring teaching at both undergraduate and graduate levels; for his active
participation in the development of honors courses in physics; for his imaginative
approach to the development of special materials for these courses; and for his

$500,000 bequest received by the University of Minnesota Monday (May 6) from
the estate of Putnam D. HcHillan, former vice president of General Mills,
who died April 7, 1961 in Santa Barbara, Calif., at the age of 79.
A check for the amount of the bequest was turned over Monday to

NEH FAR EASTERN LANGUAGE INSTITUIEPLANNED BY MIDHESTERN UNIVERSITIES
(FOR RELEASE THURSDAY, MAY 9)
Minneapolis---Eleven major midwestern universities, including the
University of Minnesota, will extend their educational "common market" into
intensive Far Eastern language instruction through a $256,000 grant from the
Ford Foundation.
The award -- made to the Committee on Institutional Cooperation (CIC) -
will enable the universities to hold rotating summer Far Eastern language
institutes over a four-year period, beginning in the summer of 1963 at the
University of Michigan. The CIC, a group formed several years ago by the 11
presidents to stimulate voluntary cooperation, includes -- in addition to
Minnesota and Michigan -- the following universities:
University of Chicago, University of Illinois, Indiana university, State
University of Iowa, }iichigan State university, Northwestern university, The
Ohio State university, Purdue university and University of Wisconsin.
Faculty for the initial Far Eastern Language Institute will be drawn
chiefly from the Chinese and Japanese teaching staffs of CIC institutions.
Specialists from universities outside the ele will be added for certain
courses.
The 1963 institute will be open to all qualified persons without restric
tion -- both at the graduate and undergraduate levels -- but participation
of students from other ele universities is especially being encouraged. Such
students td.ll pay whichever summer tuition is lower, that charged by their
home institutions or by the University of Michigan.

relations and development and the University's ere representative, said the
arrangement is another major step in the ere' s long-range etfort to avoid
costly duplication of etfort and expenditures and to assist in orderly academic
expansion when such expansion is desirable. He added: :'The Ford Foundation
grant culminates more than two years of intensive study and planning by the ere
deans of liberal arts and the joint Far Eastern language faculties. 1I
Professor Joseph K. Yamagiwa, chairman of the department of Far Eastern
languages and literatures at the University ot Michigan, is chairman of the
crc Far Eastern language faculty committee and will serve as director of the
1963 institute. Location of the three following institutes has not yet been
determined.
The }lichigan department head emphasized that instruction will range from
beginning courses through faculty-graduate student seminars at the advanced
level. Future institutes on other campuses will be closely coordinated with
work at Michigan this summer and with course offerings of the various univer
sities during the regular academic year.
In addition to providing rormal instruction in Chinese and Japanese
languages, the Ford grant will support 30 undergraduate scholarships per summer,
a series of faculty conferences, the preparation of instructional materials,
and evaluation programs. For the 1963 institute 30 additional graduate fellow
ships will be made available by the U. S. Office of Education through National
Defense Education act funds. (Application for the various awards may be made
to the Michigan department of Far Eastern languages and literatures through
May 15.)
liThe four summer institutes will upgrade the teaching of Far Eastern
languages in crc institutions by doing cooperatively what would be impossible
to accomplish singly," Professor Yamagiwa concluded.

The series of institutes is the first phase in the development of a broad
CIC master plan on cooperation in offering uncommon languages. Deans of liberal
arts in the CIC universities are directing this development.
Since its establishment in 1958, the CIC has encouraged and sponsored
voluntary cooperation in a variety of fields. Among its recent accomplishments
is a plan to encourage graduate students to move freely from one institution
to another. This innovation, called the CIC Traveling Scholar program, will
begin in September of 196:3.
The eIC staff office is located on the Purdue university campus, Lafayette,
Ind. The Purdue Research Foundation will serve as fiscal agent in administering
the Ford Foundation grant.
Presidents of the cooperating miversities have designated an administrator

'U' .. HISTORICAL SOCIETY COLLECTINGEASTERN EUROPEAN D1!1IGRANT ARCHIVES
(FOR IMMEDIATE REIEASE)
Minneapolis --- The University of Minnesota and the Minnesota Historical
society have begun a collection, in the state and throughout the country, of
the archives of Eastern European immigrant organizations in the United States.
The collection will include materials in Slovene, Croatian, Serbian,
Finnish, Italian, Polish, Russian, Greek and other Eastern European languages,
groups which are found in significant number in Minnesota, particularly on the
Iron Range, according to Professor Edward B. Stanford, director of University
Libraries.
Organizations whose records will be sought include national and regional
fraternal orders, clubs, churches and private associations.
"No research center exists in the United States where scholars can find
extensive collections of materials concerning recent immigrants to America from
the Eastern European countries," according to Professor Stanford. "Minnesota,
a state whose population contains significant numbers of all these groups,
hitherto has had no central collection."
Gathering of the historical papers is an outgrowth of the University's
Iron Range Project --- a study by four historians of the role of education in
the life of the people of the Minnesota Iron Range towns. Timothy L. Smith,
associate professor of history and education whose special field of interest
is American educational history, directs the work of this group. Other members
of the research team are Hyman Berman, associate professor of history and a
labor historian; Clarke A. Chambers, associate professor of history and a
specialist in the history of social work in America, and tvilliam E. Wright,
associate professor of history, whose specialization is Central and Eastern
European history.

IMMIGRANT ARCHIVES .2.
Professor Wright is in Austria this year on a Fulbright grant and recently
visited Ljubljana and Sagreb, Yugoslavia, in search of materials relating to
emigration to the United States.
These scholars are now engaged in collecting materials of ethnic groups
and associations in the Hinnesota Iron Range towns. They also have planned
individual trips to other cities in the United States to collect materials.
Impetus for the University collection was the receipt by the University
Library of a gift from the Slovene National Benefit society of the archives
of the Yugoslav Socialist Federation, which had been located by Professor Smith,
and a gift of the records of the Finnish Work Peoples college, Duluth.
Russell Fridley, director of the Minnesota Historical society, and
Professor Stanford have worked out an agreement whereby the society will collect
materials pertaining to Hinnesota and the upper Mississippi valley at its library
in St. Paul, and materials of national and international significance will be
housed at the University's t'[alter library. The University has arranged for a
manuscripts room and the appointment of a manuscripts curator to supervise its

STIMULATION OF CREATIVE HORK IN DRAMA,THEATER, AIM OF NEH PROGRAM AT 'u'

UNIVERSITY OF MINNESOTANEt'IS SERVICE-214 MORRILL HALL~crNNEAPOLIS 14, MINNESOTATELEPHONE: 373-21371-1AY 9, 1963
Minneapolis --- A program aimed at making the University of Minnesota
and the Twin Cities area a center for the emergence of new and creative work
in the theater---bringing to the area leading playwrights, directors, producers
and actors---was announced Friday (May 10).
Impetus for the program is a $74,000 grant to the University from the
Rockefeller Foundation t-lhich was accepted Friday by the University Board of Regents.
The grant will supplement the present work of the University Theater staff,
the Tyrome Guthrie Theatre and other persons in the Twin Cities interested in
theater in a search for ways of establishing a climate conducive to the
production of Ilgenuinely creative work in drama and the theaterII , according to
Professor Donald K. Smith, chairman of the department of speech and theater arts
and of the planning committee for the grant ·project.
"Initially," Professor Smith explained, "the grant will be used for a
study program---to explore the problems that inhibit the development of drama
and theater, and to look for ways in which new creative work can be stimulated.
One of the assumptions on which this program is based is that the American
theater needs to foster the production of new drama, appropriate in form and
statement to our own immensely complicated age."
Reasons for looking to the possibility of creating this climate in this
area, Smith added, is that Minnesota already has the resources of a major
university with a major department of theater arts, of the new Tyrone Guthrie
repertor,y theater and of vigorous development in community theater throughout the
Twin Cities area.
(MORE)
THEATER PROJECT - 2 -
Arthur H. Ballet, associate professor of speech and theater arts and
executive secretar,y of the grant project, alreaQy has begun conversations on
trips to New York and California with leading professionals in the theater to
explore the possibility of developing the program and of finding out what the
problems are facing the theater today.
To date, he has met with several leaders in the theater, including
playwrights William Inge, Robert Anderson and Lawrence and Lee, producers
Robert lJhitehead and Norris Houghton and critic Eric Bentley, as well as
college and university playt-Jrights and directors.
"These conversations with outstanding people in the theater will be
continued in the months ahead," Professor Smith said. "Our plan also is to
bring these people to the Twin Cities to continue these discussions. We hope to
be able to formulate from these meetings the next step which development of the
theater can take at the University of Minnesota and in the Twin Cities."
Focus of this program likely will be on playwrighting, according to Smith,
although the program will be aimed at theater as a total art form.
Professor Smith is chairman of the project planning committee, which
includes as members Oliver Rea and Peter Zeisler of the Tyrone Guthrie Theatre,
and Professor Frank M. Hhiting, director of University Theater, and Willard
L. Thompson, assistant to University President O. Meredith Wilson.
Smith said a procedure also is being set up under the direction of
David W. Thompson, professor of speech and theater arts, for bringing members
of the University faculty from other departments into the program. Plans
also are to establish a project committee on a community level.

Minneapolis ---The University of Minnesota Walter Library has been designated
as a regional documents depository for all United States Government publications b.Y
action of the Superintendent of Documents, Washington, D. C., according to Professor
Edward B. Stanford, University libraries director. The directive goes into effect
immediately.
A new law passed in August 1962, created these regional documents depositories,
of which Minnesota's is the third to be established in the country. Wisconsin and
New York also have similar depositories.
Arrangements for having the University Library designated as a regional
documents depository were worked out with the cooperation of the library division of
the state department of education with the support of United States Senator Hubert H.
Humphrey.
The new status for the University library means that it will receive automatica1l~.
as issued, each new or revised government document authorized for distribution to
depository libraries.
The 14 libraries in Hinnesota currently designated as official depositories will
continue to receive such publications as they may request, but may now arrange to
dispose of items no longer needed, Professor Stanford reported, as the University
library's regional depository will retain one copy of every government publication.
This will assure the permanent availability of one complete file in the state for
future use.
The official depository libraries are: the libraries of St. John's university,Collegeville; Duluth public library; Minneapolis public library; State college,Moorhead; Carleton and St. Olaf colleges, Northfield; the Minnesota Historicalsociety, St. Paul; the }Iinnesota State Law library, State Capitol building, St. Paul;St. Paul public library; Gustaws Adolphus college, St. Peter; Stillwater library;Kandiyohi County-Willmar library; St. Cloud State college and the University ofHinnesota, Duluth.
"This new arrangement for keeping these permanent records at the Universitylibrary," Stanford said, II not only assures a more complete collection of governmentpublications at the University---it also permits a greater sharing of documents, asduplicates become available, among libraries that may not presently be eligible asofficial depositories.;'

In response to the question of why a liberal student group is sponsoring
a conservative speaker, Hadley said, ''For the information of our own members

is one of a series of seminar-type discussions sponsored throughout the year
by the YDFL on the various aspects of liberal education and the fUnctions of

Demoerary---what is it that we defend and believe

David Cooperman, associate professor of social science and head of the
University of J.Iinnesota social science program, will define, defend and debate
the answers to these questions in a series of 14 University-sponsored television
appearances this summer on KTCA, Channel 2.
The series, titled 'lJ)emocracy", will be televised from 9 to 10 p. m.
Mondays June 17 through September 16.
flHe do a good deal of talking and writing about democracy nowadays,:1
Professor Cooperman said, "and we mostly assume that its meaning and what we
like to call 'democratic principles' are self-evident. Too often, this
assumption is a way of talking about democracy, but avoiding any questioning of
the basic ideas and values to whieh we so ardently corrnnit ourselves.
"These 14 talks, II he explained, "will try to examine democracy in
several ways and will deal with each aspect of the subject to the point
where new questions are raised which seem to have no answers---or at least,
none that ean be dealt Hith on television.
;lAfter the introduotory talk, which will deal with the diffiou!ties in
talking about democracy, the remaining programs will be grouped around three
ways of examining the subject: a history of demooratio ideals, an analysis,
of demooratic prinoiples and systems and problems and prospects of
democracy. II

PRINCIPALS TO ATTENDANTI~ELINQUENCY
WORKSHOP AT U OF N
(FOR lllMEDIATE RELEASE)
mrIVERSI'I'Y OF MINNESOTANFlJS SERVICE.214 MORRILL HALLMINNEAPOLIS 14, MINNESOTATELEPHONE: 373-2137JUNE 11, 1963
l1inneapolis --- A new dimension will be added to the University of
Minnesota's training program in combating juvenile delinquency
with the establishment this summer of a six-week Principals' Workshop.
The workshop, June 24 to Aug. 2, will be designed to give principals of
schools in low income, culturally deprived areas better understanding of the
backgrounds of their students and how the children and their families can be
stimulated to have greater interest in education, according to John R. Ellingston,
University professor of criminal law administration and workshop coordinator.
"If a principal or a teacher can get a child interested in school, he has a
hold on him which for many youngsters can mean the difference between delinquency
and non-delinquency," Professor Ellingston said.
The workshop for principals will be the third major training institute
dealing with problems of juveniles offered.by the University's Center for
Continuation StuQy this summer and one of the first of its kind in the nation.
The center has been conducting 10-week summer institutes for juvenile officers
for seven years and for juvenile court judges for two years. !£he institutes~ve
'been deeigned to gi"t'e effieers aed judgee fer two years. The institutes have been
designed to give officers and judges a better understanding of psychological and
sociological factors contributing to delinquency as well as training in
correctional methods.
Twenty-five principals, mostly from Minneapolis and St. Paul schools, will
participate in the workshop.
The Eighth Annual Juvenile Officers' institute and the Third Juvenile Court
Judges' institute will be held June 17 to Aug. 22. Approximately 60 officers and
16 judges are expected to attend.
(110RE)
PRINCIPALS' WORKSHOP - 2 -
The three training sessions will be financed b,y a grant from the National
Institute of Mental Health which enables the University to provide free tuition to
all registrants and living and travel expenses of $400 for participants from
outside of the Twin Cities.
The principals· workshop will be presented through the cooperation of the
University's Continuation center, the school of social work and the college of
education. It will carry nine quarters of graduate credit in social work.
Course content of the principals' course, rather than focusing on delinquency,
will be designed to help school administrators understand the cultural and family
backgrounds of their pupils and their attitudes and patterns of behav~or.
;'Many children from economically and culturally deprived areas have no
interest in education, n Professor E1lingston explained. tlThey come from homes
where there are no books and where no one has read to them out of a book. Unless
a teacher can understand the tremendous differences in their background from that
of the average middle class youngster, he is likely to alienate these children
and be alienated by them. II
SUbject matter of the workshop will include three main areas: the child, his
family and the way of life in poverty; educational methods useful with such
children and adolescents; and community resources available to help such children
and their families.
In addition to University faculty members and leaders in combating
delinquency from various institutions in the state, the three training sessions
will have several guest lecturers.
Dr. Douglas Alan Sargent, Detroit, Mich., juvenile court psychiatrist and
Carl L. }iarburger, director of the Great Cities Program for School Improvement in
Detroit will serve on the faculty of all three institutes.
Other visiting faculty members on the judges' and officers' institutes
faculty will include J.Ueldon Moffitt, University of Utah director of leadership
training, and Brother Aquinas Thomas, Manhattan College assistant professor of
psychology, New York.-UNS-

UNIVERSITY OF MINNESOTANEWS SERVICE.214 MORRILL HALLMINNEAPOLIS 14, MINNESOTATELEPHONE: 373-2137JUNE 14, 196;
Minneapolis --- Sixteen University of Minnesota anthropology students
and their professor Monday (June 17) will begin a five-week campout at
Lake Carlos State Park, 10 miles north of Alexandria.
The park, where the students will live in group camp buildings, will serve
. as classroom, living quarters and field site for the summer session class of
Anthropology 140, an archeological field techniques course.
Nine women and seven men students will be in the group. Elden Johnson,
associate professor of anthropology, will be the instructor and group leader.
His assistant is Robert Keyser, graduate teaching assistant. Keyser's daughter,
Hannah, who will be a junior next fall in the college of liberal arts, will be a
member of the group.
Major project of the class will be to excavate a large Indian burial mound,
described b,y Professor Johnson as one of the largest he has ever seen. The
mound is one of three located on private property owned b,y the Gerald Hoffman
family three miles lnorth of Alexandria.
Professor Johnson says he has no idea of how old the mound is, but that
it could have been built as far back as 500 B. C. or as late as 1600 A. D.
It is approximately 15 feet high with a diameter of 120 feet. The two other
mounds on the Hoffman property are considerably smaller, according to Professor
Johnson. They are approximately one to two feet high and 25 to ;0 feet in diameter.
':We hope to get the big one done this summer, tI Professor Johnson said.
The mounds, according to Johnson, usually mean there is a village site
nearby, so the class will be looking for clues to such a site as well as
excavating the mound.
(MORE)
INDIAN MOUNDS - 2 -
The University's anthropology department has excavated about 250 Indian
burial mounds in the state during the last 25 years and has uncovered several
village sites.
Another field project of the group will be to explore Lake Carlos State
park for archeological sites and to survey the right-of-way of Interstate
Highway 94 in Douglas county for archeological sites.
The excavating, exploring and surveying will be accompanied by daily
classroom sessions in the'park where the students will learn the techniques of
archeological field work.
Professor Johnson explained that a great deal of valuable information
can be lost if the excavation is done without proper surveying, note taking,
digging and analysis of the materials found.
The group will consist of junior, senior and graduate students only,
since it is an upper division course. Requirements, Professor Johnson said,
will be that the students bring old clothes, mosquito repellant, bedding and
dishes and a garden trowel for digging. Food will be purchased out of a
community fund to which each student will contribute. Cost of the course,
otherwise, is the regular University summer session fee.
The course, which carries six credits, will run through July 18.

Minneapolis -- Freshmen and new students attending fall quarter classes
on the University of Minnesota's Minneapolis campus who do not have their residence
hall contracts signed by now may not find space available unless they arrange for
their housing immediately, according to Don L. Finlayson, director of University
housing.
"The situation, today, is especially serious for the women students,"
Finlayson said. "Comstock hall is filled, as is Pioneer Court and Sanford hall is
more than two-thirds rented and could be filled in a matter of days. When these
few ~acancies in Sanford are filled, there will be no more women's residence hall
housing available on the Mirmeapolis campus. How long quarters will be available on
the St. Paul campus, I don't know. II
"Available residence hall space for men students is almost as limited,"
Finlayson added. "~1hile in the past it always has been possible for men students
to arrange for Hinneapolis campus housing when they attended orientation in August
and September, the way things are going this year, chances are good that the
Mirmeapolis campus men's residence halls will be filled before the orientation
program is over. Again, the St. Paul halls will be able to accommodate a limited
number of the overflow. After that, private housing will be the only answer.
"I cannot emphasize too strongly that freshmen and transfer students who have
not arranged for University housing for the fall quarter as yet should write or call
the University Housing office, Room 100 lJesbrook hall, Mirmeapolis l4---telephone
373-37.58---at once."
Finlayson pointed out that, as priorities were announced early in theUniversity's spring quarter limiting residence hall applications to presentresidents and to non-commuting new students, the early filling of the halls Willlimit the number of new and freshman "commuters" living on the campus. "Commuters"were defined in this announcement as students "whose homes are in the Twin Citiescommunities served by the Twin Cities Rapid Transit company".

'u' SCIENTIST REPORTS SUCCESSWITH NE1rl THERAPY FOR UTERINE CANCER
(FOR D1MEDIATE RELEASE)
Minneapolis --- Successful results from the use of a comparatively
new type of honnone therapy in the treatment ot advanced endometrial carcinoma
(cancer ot the mucous lining of the uterus) were announced recently by Dr. B. J.
Kennedy, associate professor of medicine in the University of Hinnesota medical
school.
The announcement was made to the medical profession by Dr. Kennedy in a
paper read before the Hay meeting ot the Minnesota Obstetrical and Gynecological
society and the Minnesota Society of Internal Medicine at Duluth, and is
published in the June 8 issue of the Journal of the American Uedical Association.
llThe important aspect of the new treatment, in addition to the favorable
results," Dr. Kennedy said, "is the evidence that the person with a long history
of this disease has a better chance to respond to this treatment than one with
the rapidly growing type of the same disease.
"Hore recent data, assembled since this test was concluded," he continued,
"shows that use of even larger doses of the hormone than were administered in
these test cases may be effective in those with the rapid-growing form of the
disease."
Endometrial carcinoma is the only cancer to respond definitely to this
hormone treatment, according to Dr. Kennedy. Before the discovery of this use
of the drug, surgery or X-ray was the only effective treatment for this type of
cancer.
(MORE)
•
CANCER THERAPY - 2 -
In contrast to a number of other hormone treatments which produce varying
undesirable side effects, the use of this female sex hormone---a derivative of
progesterone--- produces no ill effects on the patient.
This hormone currently is regarded as a research .drug , and, under the
new Federal Drug Act, may be administered only by approved investigators.
In the test on which this report was based, 27 patients with far-advanced
or recurrent endometrial carcinoma, all of whom had had surgery, irradiation
therap,y or a combination of the two types of treatment, were involved.
Eight patients (29.6 per cent) showed definite improvement, according to
the report, with a significant decrease or disappearance of the cancer. 'fumors
in areas which had previously been treated with X-ray failed to respond as well
or as rapidly as those in nonirradiated areas.
In discussing the report, Dr. Kennedy stated that continued administration
of this hormone to the patients whose illness responds to this therapy may be
necessary for the rest of their lives. This is the first therapy that allows
successful treatment of endometrial cancer that has spread throughout the body--
inevitably fatal, heretofore, he pointed out.
