Initiate Members,
Semester Activities,
Elect New Officers
"Eastern school* don't worry
about fun, football, and fraterni-
ties. Serious-minded student* have
no time for social fraternities."
Despite thi* summary opinion,
Paul Zelanski, instructor of art
who is presently presenting an ex-
hibition of paintings and drawings
in black and white in the main li-
brary's Little gallery which will
run through May 22, ay* he likes
North Texas and consider* the art
department very good for a liberal
art* college "The other schools
with which I am familiar are pro-
fessional colleges," the instructor
noted.
Newcomer Last Kail
Zelanski, who come to North
Texas last fail with a B.F.A. from
Vale university and an M A from
Bowling Green university, teaches
two painting course* and two de-
signing courses. He also attended
Cooper Union in New York.
Zelanski derives all of his sub-
ject matter from nature an/1 "from
a very personal point of view," he
adds. "Due to my visual experi-
ence®, my treatments of nature
look fairly abstract."
Men of Art Guild
Recently voted into the Dallas
Fort Worth Men of Art guild, Ze-
lanski Is currently participating in
a group show at the Men of Art
gallery In Dallas which started
Sunday and will last through June
7.

Mass., and will have a one-man
show there thi* summer exhibiting
twenty to thirty pieces i'lie Art Iri
ntitute of Massachusetts recently
selected two of Zelanski'* paintings

played in the Yale summer show,

Brooklyn print show; the Avery
Memorial museum, Hartford,
Conn ; the Northeastern State ex-
peditions, Springfield, Ma**., and
other local shows and museums.
Several persons have bought paint
ings from Zelanski for private col
lections.
Zelanski uses a form of non-di
rected leaching in his classroom.
"I assign problems designed in
such a way that the student has to
do all the work," he explained. "A
person acquires more understand-
ing by doing all of the work him-
self."
\n "Intellectual Institution"
Zelanski considers painting an
"intellectual institution" He said
people outside of the art depart-
ment may take art courses for
their own appreciation.
Asked what he thought of mod-
ern art, Zelanski said he likes it.
"In fact, any painting done today
is actually modern art because art
must be a product of its time,"
Zelanski explained,
"Too many people have a ten-
dency to look at the modern artist
as a second-rate person," Zelanski

impact of human intelligence upon
these problems."
Dr. DuChemin noted that these
problems, both common and indi-
vidual, are not just the problems
created by recent scientific achieve-
ment but are also social in nature.
Putting freedom of inquiry in its
proper place in the necessary areas
would do much to improve our
situation, he added, "By 'inquiry' 1
do not mean scholarly inquiry
necessarily, but it is an attitude
produced by curiosity and self-
discipline."
He pointed out that the three
areas most in need of this atti-
tude are politics and economics, re-
ligion, and, last but not least, edu-
cation.
He added that politics and eco-
nomics are self-explanatory in their
need for inquiry. In religion an ac-
knowledgment of the individual's
right to seek his own beliefs neces-
sitates the use of inquiry, and edu-
cation needs to put more emphasis
on inquiry.
