Six new members were initiated into Iron Arrow, oldest recognition society for men at the University, March 14.

This painting, “Williams Bar-B-Qued Chicken,” by Don Eddy, is part of the Lowe Art Museum’s newest exhibition. It is acrylic on canvas and is nearly five feet high and four feet wide.
Exhibit Highlights Contemporary Art
The Lowe Art Museum is presenting a major exhibition of paintings by 25 contemporary American artists now through April 11.
Works in the exhibition, titled “Today/Tomorrow: Selected Contemporary Artists,” range from new realism to minimalism/conceptualism.
Included in the exhibition is a wall drawing by Sol Lewitt who is providing a set of instructions for its execution. After the exhibition, the drawing will be painted over.
Lowe Assistant Director Paul Thompson says “As part of the All-American year at the Lowe, directed toward Miami’s Third Century theme, it is important for the museum to show its public what is happening on a national scale and what the future portends. The museum has selected certain artists from across the country who have already made significant contributions to the visual arts and whose work will very likely continue to influence future art and artists.”

National Economic Planning Is Topic Of L&EC Book
In a new book whose very size “carries part of the message,” the Law and Economics Center of the School of Law raises some 1,750 pages of questions about national economic planning. Its authors say the questions represent just part of what must be answered before “any mechanism purporting to plan intelligently for the American economy can be justified operationally.”
The volume, entitled Catalog of Research Issues for Understanding National Economic Planning, is the
product of contributions by both economists and lawyers, with Professor Kenneth W. Clarkson, professor of economics at the Law and Economics Center, in charge of coordinating and directing the entire project.
In a preface, Dr. Henry G. Manne, director of the Center, states that the work “carries with it a profound program of scholarship in a field we are in danger of entering willy-nilly and from which withdrawal could prove very difficult indeed.”
The new catalog, Dr. Manne says, is “the most thorough and the most cogent set of first level questions about the nitty-gritty stuff of planning yet produced.” Most of the questions are arranged in 138 groups according to industry, beginning with Agricultural Chemical Industries and ending with Yarn and Thread Mill Industries. Each is presented as a self-contained research inquiry.
After each of the 138 groups of study outlines, this conclusion is stated: “When the results of these studies are combined with the questions raised in other parts of this volume, one may claim to have sufficient information to understand the consequences or desirability of national economic planning.”
Apart from its studies and questions about 138 industrial groups in the private sector, the new catalog also presents 10 impact studies concerning public management activities, and evaluations of previous planning experiences.
“The impact of central economic planning can only be understood by an extensive knowledge of previous governmental planning activities and their interaction with billions of individual public and private transactions which are affected by public sector decision making,” the catalog states.
