Miami Hurricane, June 30, 1950

              Club Cop Chapman Cheers Slop Shoppers
By ELEANOR STARKSTEIN
Hurricane Staff Writer
The one man who knows almost everyone on campus and has a cheery greeting for all is Shelton Chapman, student club policeman.
Sooner or later in the day, the entire student body marches past Chapman in his daily traversing of “slop shop.” The friendly gentleman sees the students when they’re in the
mood for studying, when they re jovially greeting each other over a ’burger and coke, and when they’re “just plain sittin’ and talkin’.”
The 55-year-old Georgian began his present duties when the student club opened last year. He favorably comparés this year’s informal, carefree atmosphere at the club to the more stilted and formal feelings when it first opened.
"This club was like a new toy to the students at first and they didn’t quite know what to do with it,” Chapman declared.
Along with his regular duties, the policeman has acquired some extra activities, such as feeding the ducks that swim in the student club lake. He insists that the ducks wait for him every morning and “call” for their food. However, the ducks have been taking to the shore since the advent of the new canoes.
Chapman, a former football and baseball star while at prep school in Georgia, was a sergeant in the Army during World War I.
Then came a long hitch as accountant for an oil refining company. In 1941, he joined the internal Security Force of the War Department and then he handled dogs for the K-9 Corps.
Just before coming to the University, Chapman was a hotel detective in Columbus, Georgia. He laughingly recalls many amusing incidents connected with that job and can recount story after story to any willing listener. One of his favorite tales is the one about the convention that came to town.	n
“They really took over the place," Chapman laughingly recalled. “They began locking all the bellhops in the closets and then they wanted to start locking up all the hotel detectives. But they didn’t catch me, thank goodness.”
The policeman admits that this is the “nicest bunch of students anyone could ever meet.”
Youth Invades Drama Portals
Youth seeks education. A strenuous contest was being waged on U-M campus this week. The problem arose when in the last issue of the Hurricane, a story was published on Jacqueline Mendelson, 14, as being the youngest student enrolled this summer.
But a still younger student is roaming the portals of our campus. Sally Lou Berger, all of 12, a student at Ponce de Leon junior high, is also taking the drama course.

Commencement Set For July 30
Graduation ceremonies have been moved forward two weeks to accommodate most of the first summer session graduates, Dr. H. Franklin Williams, dean of the faculty, announced yesterday.
Instead of the original August 16 date, commencement will be held Sunday, July 30, the time and place to be announced later in the Hurricane.
All graduating seniors who had not planned to attend ceremonies because of the two-week wait and can now do so must make reservations for caps, gowns, and invitations immediately at the registrar’s office, Dr. Williams said. The deadline has already passed but will be extended for additional registrations today.
The original August 16 date was set to include in the ceremonies graduates of the law school and teacher training course, who do not complete their courses until August 12 and August 15, respectively.

Aram Goshgarian, former U-M Student Association president, was “right up on the news” when North Korean troops invaded the southern part of the country Sunday.
“Gosh,” who was with the sixth infantry in the occupation of South Korea in September, 1945, following the Japanese-American treaty, was a sergeant who helped train the Korean soldiers in tank tactics.
“The American occupation forces had two main jobs in Korea,” the senior said. “First we were in charge of rehabilitating the civilian population, and then, our most important job, to de-Japanese the Koreans who fought in the Nipponese army and teach them something about protecting their own land.”
He said that some of these men he helped train are probably now fighting the North Korean Communists.
Goshgarian was stationed in Kwangju, the proposed new capi-
tal of South Korea. The old capital, Seoul, south of the 38th parallel, the border between North and South Korea, fell to the North Koreans Wednesday.
“Gosh” showed little alarm over the fighting in the Asiatic nation.
“I don’t believe this will lead to another world war,” he said, “as the UN has intervened. And if that isn’t too successful, Korea’s terrain will make it difficult for the Reds to penetrate.”
He said that since the U.S. has taken a hand in the world-wide matter, South Korea should have little trouble in holding back the Red invaders. He explained that the South Koreans lacked good leadership.
The ex-sergeant said that there are few roads in South Korea, where the fighting is taking place.
The few roads that Korea does have are very narrow, mostly one-lane, he said, and they are hardly adequate for troop movement.
He said that in addition to the poor transportation conditions, the region which is mostly mountain -

Teachers' Session To Start July 5
Teachers will be silting on the other side of the desk on July 5 when the classes for the Teacher Training session begin.
These summer curricula are offered by the School of Education for students preparing for teaching careers in the elementary, junior high, or the senior high schools.
Many of the student teachers will be working toward their master’s degrees.
Registration will be held from 8:30 to 12 noon tomorrow in Room N-110, and will mean another large increase in the student body.
"Several of the graduate courses are specifically required for candidates for a Master’s degree," said John L. Russell, assistant to Dean John R. Beery.
The six-week session will end August 15. Commencement for graduate students will be August 16.
Each curriculum in the School of Education emphasizes three types of work: general or cultural courses, professional courses in education, and courses leading to mastery of the subjects to be taught. Twenty-nine courses are offered this summer session.
Last year, 178 students attended this special session, not all of whom were teachers. Of this number, 92 were women; 86, men.
Graduate courses in the teaching of handicapped children will be taught by Dr. Elmer W. Weber of the Public Schools Office, Evansville, Ind.
^Six classes offered are required for elementary school certificates. These subjects include art, music, health education, reading, and mathematics.
The 500- and 600-level courses offered can be used toward graduate work and for requirements in the student’s field of concentration.
Teachers from the Dade County School Board will join the University staff in this special session.
Korea
ous south of Seoul, is covered with rice patches which are flooded at this time of year.
Gosh explained that the training of the South Korean< troops was done through well-educated Korean interpreters.
“The occupation troops pointed out and explained the workings of the war implements, and the interpreters gave the Asiatics the ‘know how’ on modem warfare.”
Another University student, Jay Clarke, former Hurricane sports editor, also was stationed in South Korea. Clark served on the first replacement depot there from January to October, 1947.
Clarke said that frequent riots broke out among the Southern and Communist Koreans, and most of the men felt that sooner or later there would be an attack by the Northern Reds.
He also pointed out that the Koreans were quite indignant toward all foreigners there. “They disliked having any foreign personnel around. The Russians as well as the Americans were looked upon with disdain,” he said.

Junior and senior high school students from 26 schools in Florida, and one in North Carolina, will converge on the UM campus tomorrow for the opening of the second summer band camp.
According to Bandmaster Fred McCall, who will direct the summer camp, 106 students have already registered and a good many more are expected to be on hand when the
University-sponsored camp officially gets under way. Last summer’s enrollment was 91.
32 On Staff
McCall will have a staff of 32 to aid him in running the camp, including directors, instructors, and counsellors. J. B. O’Neal from Fort Pierce high school, and Dorothy Parker from Melbourne high school will be assistant camp directors. UM band members will act as counsellors for the campers.
A 24-hour schedule has been laid out for each day of the five weeks that the students will be on the campus. There will be full band work, sectional work for the various instruments, private lessons on all instruments, and a full recreation program.
At 3 p.m. each Sunday during the camp session, there will be a band concert in the Student Club.

in a section of the student dormitories. Counsellors for the students will live with them in their section. Staff members from beyond the Miami area will also have a section in the student dorms. The staff and the campers will eat together in the cafeteria.
The resident students will be charged $150.00 for their five-week stay on the campus. This will include music fees, housing, meals, and laundry. Day students, who will come for full band work only, will be charged $15.00 for the period.
Baton Twirling Taught
The courses offered, in addition to band work and private instruction, will include baton twirling, student conducting, and music theory. For their free time, the campers will have four trips a week to the beach, movies every Tuesday night, dances every Saturday night, recitals every Friday night, and organized athletics throughout the week.
“The plan,” says McCall, "is to achieve an all-around camp, one that balances the best qualities of two camps—recreational and music."
Dr. Finer Returns Here For Summer Lectures
Dr. Herman Finer, noted British economist and political scientist, who was the commencement speaker at the first summer session graduation last year, has returned to the U-M campus.
Dr. Finer, professor of political science at the University of Chicago, is now giving courses here in European government and politics, and contemporary political dynamics.
Widely traveled and the author of numerous books and articles on economics and political science, Dr. Finer is a graduate of the University of London.
Some of the books by the well-known political educator are The Road lo Reaction, America’s Destiny, Mussolini’s Italy, and Theory and Practice of Modern Government, the latter being his most famous.
