Our own Berlin Wall
•East German Communists are beginning a campaign of *beautifl-
catlon' of the Berlin Wall, In an effort to counteract the damaging
propaganda to which they have been subjected by the West," Informs
the Insider's Newsletter.
•The Wall, say Communist officials In East Berlin, Is to be land¬
scaped' and 'made appealing.' There are plans to GROW IVY along
some parts of the Wall, to place large flower pots on top of the WaU
at such tourist points as Checkpoint Charlie, the Brandenburg Gate
and Potsdamer Platz, and to conceal part of lt behind wire screens
and lattice work.
•The Idea Is to give the WaU the character of a 'national frontier'
instead of a prison.*
See? Never underestimate the power of an Ivy plant. If lt can do
that much for the Wall, just think what lt could do for the dorms.

pus maintenance men, 'all they
have to do Is watch their step.*
The problem on campus Is a
very obvious one. Students and

patches of grass and are burn¬

To remedy the unsightly sit¬

ment has spread large amounts
of fertilizer over the dead grass
area In hopes of reviving lt.
The fertilizer Is reportedly do¬
ing Its Job. The damaged grass
is sprouting again.
Unfortunately, students and
faculty are not heeding the ef-
fortsof the maintenance men. It
seems the grass on the opposite
sides of the fertUlzed strips
are being slowly worn away. The
reason for this unsightly mutU-
atlon Is because everybody is
bypassing   the  fertUlzed  strips

changing our society.
In 20 years there might not be
any newspapers, according to Dr.

turn back to a page he would
merely dial It on the set.

and spell words correcUy.*
In criminology, computers
would revolutionize methods of
detecting criminals. Students
would be analyzed as early as the
eighth grade and computers would
predict which students would be
most likely to become criminals.
Computers wUl also be used to
trace Individual patterns of
crimes thereby giving clues as to
which culprits were breaking the
law, he declared.

In the field of social welfare

of a man going to a computer to

a certain price range. These de¬
