Early-
Few Electives?
Students
Had Even Less
Today's student staggering un
der his load of required subjects,
wailing that he can't take enough
electives, needs only to look back
to the University's early days to
feel his load lighten.
From the opening of the Uni
versity in 1871 until 1880, no
electives were permitted. Fresh
men and sophomores were al
lowed no electives. Juniors and
seniors fared no better, for,
although the catalog listed seven
electives for each class, the stu
dents were not permitted to take
them.
The course of study in the
single college, the College of Lit
erature, Science and the Arts, in
cluded from five to nine required
subjects for the students. The
electives which the students
were not permitted to take in
cluded such subjects at Calau-
lus, Aesthetics, Latin, Anglo
Saxon, Zoology, and Latin.
Artist Reveals
Self in Exhibit
In Morrill Hall
"It's almost as if the artist were
psychoanalyzing himself," is the
comment of Dwight Kirsch, direc
tor of the University art galleries,
on the paintings in the exhibit of
the work of Ulfert Wilke now in
Gallery B on second floor of Mor
rill hall.
Mr. Kirsch's advice to non-art
students viewing the exhibit is to
notice first the color, how the
artist used it and the color com
binations. He says that the pic
tures should be viewed as an in
terpretation of ideas, showing the
artist's sensations and feelings
about, rather than the actual ap
pearance of the subject matter.
"Fighting; Fur-Fowls."
The paintings of Wilke now in
Morrill hall include one of "Fight
ing Fur-Fowls" inspired by an ac
count in Time of a hybrid rabbit
and chicken, called a fur fowl, and
then another entitled "Fur Fowls
Also Die," in which the artist, on
deciding that he had painted
enough pictures of the hybrid fur
fowls, killed them off.
Wilke, who was born in Ger
many, has been in America since
1938. He has taught at the Uni
versity of Iowa and has recently
joined the staff of the Allen R. 1

Registration
Time Cut by
IBM Machine
It walks and It talks and it's al
most human is a good description
of the Internatioial Business Ma
chines, IBM for short.
Well, it may not walk, and its
talking may be confined to the
written work, but . the memory
and mathematical ability of these
machines are quite a bit above
the human level.
One of the phenomenal feats of
IBM at the University has been to
cut the registration time from
well over a day to near half an
hour for upperclassmen and about
a half a day for freshmen. In
stead of painfully filling out the
reams of copies of class schedules,
the students now do one, while
IBM takes care of the rest.
