A career that occupied a dissertation By GAIL MORRIS Assistant Editor, News Bureau The spirit of innovation arrived at Michigan State in 1943. He was a compact man,S feet6 inches in stature, and conservatively dressed. A 53-year-old professor of administration from the University,of Chicago, he had been invited to MSC by President John A. Hannah to discuss post-war. problems of higher education. Fresh from ashington andt>resident Roosevelt's inner circle of advisors, he came with more than a decade of experience in two administrations, some 30 years of teaching and administrative experience, and success in such landmark public policy developments as the Tennessee Valley Authority and Gl. Bill of Rights. What he brought with him were fresh ideas on general education that became the cornerstone of MSU's Basic College-now University College. This man-who grew up among Crow and Sioux Indians, who taught a 11. S. to speak English, who as a one-room school teacher rebelled against the senator system-soon became known as the University's "idea man." . FLOYD W. REEVES' ideas were sometimes so new they were considered ra d i c a I. Paul L. Dressel, now director of institutional research, recalls that "he didn't mind coming out with very radical ideas; many weren't really accepted, but the fact that they were so different from what people were thinking moved them out of their ruts a little bit." In committee meetings, his modus operandi often provided the jolt that made things happen, accordin.j to the late Edward B. Blackman,of University College. "He would almost never be among the fust to speak in meetings. He would puff away at his pipe letting several other people voice their opinions and thmReeves would come in and you'd wait for the bombshell to go off. ' "You'd know something very radical was about to be said. He would come out with some very far out idea, which at fIrst seemed kind of crazy, but thinking about it for awhile, it seemed to be a reasonable idea. "He wasn't bound intellectually or emotionally; he was a very liberated man," Blackman said. (Continued on page S) Floyd Reeves: The spirit of innovation.

As one who took advantage of the opportunity to witness all three parts of the series, I must think we were extraordinarily privileged. say I The excellent presentations on Wednesday were, of course, original, unique, and can never be repeated. The filmed record of the civil rights movement in this country, however, is so enlightening that if it is not already in the University's permanent film collection, I urge its prompt acquisition. Its documentation of racism in the American Deep South, in the North, and finally in Memphis is a painfully brutal but valid and inescapable indictment of incredible impact. If it were notiri.separable the record of , Martin equally authentic Luther King Jr.'s evolving moral . leadership as a challenging modern - day prophet - demonstrating rare courage, deep faith in the common man, and a practical commitment to the highest ideals of this country regardless of personal cost - it would yield nothing but despair. But as it is, even the U.S. Information Agency should have the wit and the courage to use it with very telling effect. ftom The viewer is given intimate close up views (often better than those enjoyed by eyewitnesses of actual events) of Martin Luther King Jr., not only as one of the greatest pubic figures of our time, but as a warmly engaging and fully credible human being, with a little known, many - sided private life of llis own. Until a better film on this subject becomes availabll!, iri:conceivable as that now is, I hope this one will be shown annually as part of the Martin Luther King JI. Series. But making arrangements to expose oneself to so long a film - a full three hours - is not easy for any busy person. Nor does such regular a fit easily into film the academic class schedule. The small size of the audience on the Auditorium last Thursday afternoon (there was also quite a bit of coming and going) suggests that this ftlm should be offered than annually, and more frequently under viewing conditions which would make attendance more easily feasible and convenient for the many potential viewers in the various segments of the University community. I think faculty and staff as well as students should have the opportunity. this impact of I trust the necessary arrangements can, and I hope that in due time they will, be made so that every student on this campus before graduation will have been enabled and motivated to undergo tremendous the documentary.

The procedures cover requests for material to be used in research studies as well. as access to individual student records. Requests for aggregate academic data for use in research studies and for other purposes will go before a special screening committee for consideration, MSU News-Bulletin Editor: Gene Rietfors Associate editor: Beverly Twitchell Associate editor: Sue Smith Provost John E. Cantlon said. The committee will detennine the validity of the proposed use and give special attention to safeguarding against release of infonnation which might reflect adversely on individuals. Committee members are Paul Dressel, director of institutional research; Milton B. Dickerson, vice president for student affairs; Joseph McMillan, director of the office of Equal Opportunity Programs; and Horace King, registrar. When requests involve data in a sensitive area, such as minorities, disadvantaged students, or women, the president will be asked to appoint two temporary additional voting members chosen for their special competence in that area, Cantlon said.

Bonne.n, professor of agricultural economics, which included a proposal for "thorough and fair evaluation and discussion" of the issues of collective bargaining. C. C. Killingsworth, professor of labor and industrial relations, spoke in favor of the substitute motion. "If we look carefully at the contingencies," he said, "it is unwise to ask an organ of faculty government to evaluate (collective bargaining). It may prejudice future relationships." -PAT GRAUER A -p nominations The nominating committee of the Administrative Professional Association is now accepting nominations for president, treasurer and three board members.

An MSU soil scientist who spent 10 years in India says that nation and its recently reelected prime minister are on the right track, but large - scale starvatiOl. will probably continue there for some time. "Last year, thanks to improved grain varieties, India had its best year since the mid - fIfties," r.eports Roy L. Donahue, "but the U.s. still gave or sold five million tons of food grains to India. Still, the Indians are making improvements. I have faith that technology~an raise their food production and keep them fed forever." But he says technology isn't the only concern facing India. "Change is than starvation," he says. "They're used to sometimes more frightening starvation. " * * * AUTO POLLUTION. Lead emissions from automobiles are so minute they do not constitute a significant pollution hazard, says M.H. Chetrick chairman of chemical engineering. He reports that the major pollutants are unburned hydrocarbons, carbon monoxide and nitrogen oxides. The best way to reduce them is to keep a car well tuned. * * * VANDENBERG BOOK .. The fIrst political biography of a Michigan editor who became one of the most influential statesman of his time, has been published by the MSU Press. The work is "Senator Arthur H. Vandenberg: The Evolution of a Modem Republican." The author is C. David Thompkins, associate professor of history at Northeastern Illinois State College in Chicago. The book traces Vandenberg's career from his newspaper days in Grand Rapids at the turn of the century through 1945, with emphasis on the years after 1928 when he represented Michigan in the U.S. Senate. * * * KELLOGG GRANT. The W. K. Kellogg Foundation has awarded MSU a $634,000 grant to help Michigan's rural communities and their public officials. The funds will be used to develop Cooperative Extension Service programs in the areas of rural development and public affairs, according to Dale E. Hathaway, chainnan of agricultural economics, who will adtnisister the grant. "We have organized several programs to improve rural communities' ability to manage resources," he said. "We won't be telling local officials how to run their governments, but rather we will provide pipelines of information and other educational opportunities which will be readily accessible." Alvin House, MSU specialist in public affairs and one of those involved in the program's execution,sees it as bringing about greater university involvement in studying, interpreting and organizing the flood of information pertaining to management decisions faced by local officials. Volunteering to go to jail Page 3, MSU News - Bulletin, April 8, 1971 ByBEVERL Y TWITCHELL Associate Editor, Faculty News Girls must be pretty bad to get to the Ingham County Jail, Dick Poynton, jail's rehabilitation director of the told. So why bother program, was teaching them things like typing and shorthand? Because three girls left the jail and education at enrolled Lansing Community College. - in business And because the purpose of the rehabilitation program is to build a momentum of desire not to return to the kinds of things that got them into Ingham County Jail (ICJ) in the fIrst place. So !CJ has developed a program involving some 48 persons - many of them volunteers, and many of them MSU employes, faculty, students or faculty wives to work in both academic and in personal/professional capacities with ,the jail inmates. - * * * THE WORK AT' ICJ is one of several volunteer activities that could involve MSU faculty, staff, retirees, or faculty wi ve s . John Cauley, director of volunteer programs at MSU, cites a need for permanent residents to work with volunteer programs, particularly in the spring and summer months when student volunteers are less available. For example, some 65 students are working as volunteer probation offIcers, but many will be gone during the summer, Cauley says. This is a program where volunteers are needed on a one - to - one basis. Another such program is the Big Brother - Big Sister Program, which will lose many of its student volunteers during the summer. Persons interested in doing volunteer work should contact Judy Sorum, assistant director of volunteer programs and coordina tor of the volunteer bureau. She said she is also interested in helping individuals start new programs. Jim Nevels, an instructor in American Thought and Language, began his own tutorial program (see related story) and received help through student volunteers referred to him through Mrs. Sorum's offIce. The faculty or staff input into a program - be it counseling at Boys Training School, tutorials, day care or work at - would be jail "sophisticated input," she said, and would provide the needed continuity. the * * * MSU PEOPLE doing volunteer work at ICJ serve in a variety of capacities. Some are practicum students; some began as volunteers and have since been hired 'as instructors; others assist in classes, or counselor tutor. Mrs. Lacy Cox, wife of an MSU faculty member, works as a volunteer teaching arts and crafts to female inmates. Dorothy I. Popejoy, assistant professor in health, physical education recreation, developed a and comprehensive proposal for the first physical education program at the jail. Johnson, associate professor of counseling and personnel services, ICJ is chairman of Rehabilitation Advisory Board. He has been involved in volunteer work at the jail for four years. Richard G. the Frank G. Dennis Jr., associate professor of horticulture, works as an instructor's assistant in teaching math. The instructor he assists is a graduate student in his department and Dennis the student's dissertation serves on committee. Mrs. Louise Benson, works in the MSU library's circulation department and also serves as a volunteer librarian for the ICJ. three mornings a week. ICJ Mrs. Benson, whose library includes 2,500 books from "Black Beauty" to "Catch 22" and "Is the World Our Campus?", says that inmates have encouraged her to read Herman Hesse and science fiction. David H. Marin, an MSU student, has been instrumental in establishing an auto mechanics class for the inmates, for which the Lansing School District, after Marin's initial work, supplied an instructor. Basil Stergios, a graduate student in horticulture; 'not· enIy"teaehell' 'JIIath at the jail, but teaches it in Spanish to six Spanish - speaking inmates. * * * POYNTON AND Sherriff Kenneth Preadmore have high praise for MSU and its volunteers. Sheriff Preadmore refers to the "whole University of people" he has for resource, with the "expertise and sensitivities we need." He talks about the kind of inmates he has: One - third flISt offenders; one - third second and third offenders; one - third sentenced; average age 21 to 24, with an estimated future average age of 17 to 21; 10 percent illiterate, 25 percent welfare - to 60 percent from broken homes,9*- years average education. raised, 55 He talks about what he is trying to do, their minds and . challenge . " . imagina tions and not put them back on the street where there's another kind of challenge." And the difficulties: "It's a hard program to sell. Too many people still have the attitude that we should lock the door and forget about them (the inmates )." And the importance of the volunteers: "The inmates know someone cares; they meet talent other than police; they get out of their cells (which are called dorms)." For his efforts Preadmore recently received the Michigan Public School Educators award for outstanding service to adult education. And six other county jails have inquired about his rehabilitation program. The program began in 1961 with group therapy sessions, Preadmore said, initiated with the assistance of an MSU professor. With growing concern about job employment (inmates couldn't get jobs either before or after their terms in jail because they couldn't read the job application), job application forms from businesses all over Lansing were obtained and used as "textbooks." Eventually, the Lansing School District offered to provide an instructor for every 22 students the jail could provide, and the program was approved as an adult education program which can test and award high school diploma equivalencies. Federal funds have been obtained to support the program, and an $85,000 proposal was submitted to the Lansing Model Cities program - because 52 percent of ICJ's inmates come the Model Cities area, Poynton said. Classes in math, English, social studies, physical education, and arts and crafts are being taught - ill the chapel, in hallways, in small rooms, wherever space IS available. Inmates participate on a voluntary basis. from Jerome Scott is a 20 - year - old high school dropout in ICJ on a larceny charge for a one - year sentlmce. He was in the jail eight months before he was sentenced, he said, and has been taking all of the classes, "to facilitate my time." Scott says he is now ready to take his high school equivalency test, and speaks of "intellectual hungers" and a change Dick Poynton: Opening the jail doors. in attitude toward educational values." "You have a lot of time to think about it here." Scott is also editor of RAPport, an inmate news - bulletin that he initiated. Ondie Brum, 21, has four months to go on a one - year sentence on a drug charge. He also works with RAPport and serves as the inmate librarian. The classes, the library, the newspaper, he says, all serve to show that "we're not confined to mental vegetation." Poynton sees the volunteers the initiators, the innovators. He's open to new ideas, h,~ says. "I view myself as attempting to open doors of the jail, rather than the traditional viewpoint of keeping the men in isolation. as "The volunteer personalizes institutionalization and prevents alienation." If an inmate is a security risk (an example was a Black militant consid.eted. too di'MU"Qtl.ve to atten.d,c\as\leS vfitb. other inmates), the instructor is allowed into security areas to meet with the inmate on an individual basis. Poynton speaks further on volunteers: "It's therapeutical to talk with someone you respect and have confidence in - someone who is not a paid instructor or a guard. It's an opportunity for a redefinition of relationships." He would welcome MSU staff people as volunteers, he said, because of their "stability, maturity, sense of commitment, professional attitude, and expertise in an area." • How one instructor started his own tutorial program You can't begin talking about skills development until you talk about personal problems, says Jim Nevels, instructor in American Thought and Language. "Skills development is the easy part of education." So Nevels, who is also a master's candidate in, administration and higher education and a part - time counselor at Everett High School, volunteered his time to develop a program of tutoring for Lansing area high school dropouts and potential dropouts. With about 13 MSU students who volunteered through the MSU Volunteer Bureau, Nevels meets every Monday and Thursday evening with some 30 kids, mostly black, at West Junior High School. The sessions are about half tutorial and half group work, "dealing with self - concepts, getting the students to see in their role as students, developing positive attitudes toward that role." It's a social ~vent, it's a rap session, it's a in school" push. Some are "stay potential college the program isn't designed just to prepare people for college, Nevels says.

Nevels says he needs more people to work on ~arious aspects of the program, but says it is difficult to find people "willing to give time and energy in working with kids on their own terms.'~ He'd like to see the program branch out, to become "a friendship thing," meeting other places.

So "we need a program package," he says, "with objectives and an evaluative component to test the objectives." And he'd to make research traming to "It just keeps getting bigger and bigger," he says. Page 4, MSU New!! - BuDetin. April 8, 1971 Legislative report Higher ed decisions stalled by $ With Michigan's economy still in trouble, the State Legislature appears to be slowing its usual hearing procedures regarding higher education appropriations. Normally, colleges and universities attend hearings before the appropriation committees in the House and Senate by April. But this year's hearings haven't even started. As has been true from the start, money problems continue to plague Michigan's 76th Legislature. Most observers see little hope for any increase in dollars for higher education without some kind of a tax package. There may still be a few hopes that the economy will pick up by time money decisions for higher education have to be made; however, economic improvement has not come as fast as many in state government had hoped. the indications that if the There are legislative slowdown on money decisions continues, higher education appropriations could receive approval after July 1. This could mean that colleges and universities would be forced to operate on current budgets until new appropriations are available. So while the legislature wrestles with decisions on taxes, money for higher education will have to sit on the back burner. * * * THE LEGISLATURE can be expected to become increasingly involved in a wide range of higher education issues. Some topics of interest are: 1. Accountability - Many see the inclusion of faculty contact hours in last year's appropriation law as only the beginning of greater efforts to make supported universities and state colleges more accountable the taxpayer. There is increasing grassroots support for this kind of move. to - In addition to contact hours, the legislature may also take a look into faculty tenure. Again, the chief desire for such a study will be to make faculty more accountable to the public. Several state legislatures have already taken such a look. In Florida, a bill was defeated which would have abolished tenure in state universities and colleges. A subcommittee in the Florida Senate, however, is currently studying tenure abuses and to make suggestions as to how the tenure system can be improved. is expected In Utah, a similar bill to abolish tenure was killed. The University of Utah has started a study of tenure as a possible means of staying ahead of any future legislative actions concerning tenure. Most observers feel that any action in the Michigan Legislature will probably be in the direction of studying faculty tenure practices. Some higher education spokesmen point out that tenure abuses in universities and colleges are not as great as abuses in the state civil service system and social security. However, the folks back home want their legislator in Lansing to take a long, hard look at why university faculty are given permanence in their jobs when the average citizen does not have such arrangements. 2. Governance of Higher Education - As has been true for several years, feelings continue that the legislature should have greater control over the sta te supported higher education institutions, especially the "Big Three," MSU, the University of Michigan and Wayne State University. - One senator recently sent a questionnaire to his constituents asking for their opinion on a variety of issues including whether the Michigan Constitution should be changed so as to reduce the power of the governing boards of the "Big Three" universities. Constituents were also asked if the constitution should be changed so that the governing boards would be appointive instead of being elected and the state director of education or a board would be appointive rather than the elected State Board of Education. report 3. Housing Options - Many Legislators receiving mail indicating strong disapproval of proposed coed alternate living arrangements at MSU, Although the issue has been currently settled by the Board of Trustees, it may still have brought about Legislative attention to the question. * * * RECENT BILLS of interest to higher education include: A bill introduced by Rep. Brennan and Rep. Jim Brown calling for a change in the Michigan to allow for appointed Constitution members to the governing boards of the "Big Three" universities; a proposal by Rep. Geerlings requiring that collective to the public; and bargaining sessions of public agencies be opened a bill introduced by Rep. Elliott to provide incentive awards to needy high school juniors seeking higher education. Also of interest: A bill by Rep. Snyder which provides for a higher education loan fund; Rep~ Vaughn has introduced three bills calling for student members on university governing boards and the State Board of Education, and a bill which would create a State Student Grievance COrnn1ission; Sen. Stamm has introduced a bill creating a State Educational Telecommunications Commission for coordinating educational television in the state; a proposal by Sen. Bishop which would place the Michigan Higher Education Facilities Authority under the State Department of Education; and two bills by Rep. Mahalak providing tuition - free higher education for children of disabled or deceased servicemen or veterans. -MIKE BORN Pianists headline L-C Series Van Cliburn and Jacques Loussier, two concert pianists with distinctly styles, will be different JACQUES WUSSIER presented by MSU's Lecture - Concert Series next week.

Portions of that article follow. It may have been a shotgun wedding - with the weapon pointed at both parties - but the two are going at it with a will to make the marriage work. Future doctors of medicine and of osteopathy will be studying this fall in Separate colleges on the same campus - Michigan State. "If's. a crazy situation to have two medical schools on one campus, but we're determmed to stay loose enough to take advantage of it," says Hilliard Jason director of medical education research and development for the College of Hum~ Medicine. .T~e "~razy situation" was forced by the State Legislature. A few years ago MIchigan s DOs mounted a campaign for a state - supported college of osteopathy, and they have political clout, constituting as they do 17 percent of the state's medical practitioners and a third of the GPs. Over the bitter opposition of the MDs, the .nOs won, but the 1969 law required that the Michigan College of Osteopathic Medicine be included in an existing state university. MCOM opened under private charter ~ith 20 students in temporary quarters at Pontiac in the fall of 1969, but this year it be~omes geographically integrated with the rest of MSU . HOW MUCH integration of education can there be? Both sides are wary about discussmg the matter, preferring to let things work themselves out in the course of time. So far, there has been only one dual appointment: Jason's associate in medical education research .... Magen (Myron S., dean of osteopathic medicine), hopes to use the University to broaden students' interest in the social aspocts of mediCine, using such resources as economists, insurance experts, social workers and the Center for Urban Mfairs. Both colleges will draw on the University for the basic sciences, and both will use the same instructors, but the two sides agree that the courses themselves may not be identical .... * * * DESPITE THIS INITIAL caution, some people hope that in the course of time the two schools will develop a fair degree of integration. " I see no reason why in some areas, say radiology and anesthesiology , they can't have one department," says Schuetz, (Robert D., acting director of the Institute for Biology and Medicine). "Yes, that raises questions about accreditation and the like, but this is the flISt chance we've had to ask those questions. WRy don't we ask them? From which school would the chairman come? Would there be co-<:hairmen? Would MDs work for DOs or vice versa? With questions like these to be answered, Mike Magen obviously can't go too far too fast." Chemist Schuetz has even thrown a challenge to Magen that might conceivably end the separation of the professions: "The basic tenets ,of osteopathy are unproved. Here Mike has the University resources and backup to do the research and test it out. If he's got something good, the MDs ought to adopt it; if he hasn't the DOs ought to abandon it. Let's face the consequences : as we fmd them and let's all accept them.-It ought to end the separation of the DOs and the MDs in either case." * * * THE YOUNG AND energetic Magen takes up the gauntlet with a grin, , and he appears unworried about the outcome. "What we are , teaching is a lot less empirical than what the psychiatrists are teaching," he says. "There's no question clinically that what we use works. . "We're setting up a department to bring together a multidisciplinary group for teaching and research. There's much evidence scattered through the literature in various places, and one of Our first jobs will be to bring it together ... ; Scheutz is convinced that "the best thing that ,could happen would be to' get them altogether in one building, where they'll be sharing problems and seeing each other every day. I'd like to see Deans Hunt (Andrew G., of human medicine) and Magen even have adjoining offices." Hunt is willing; he thinks medicine may have some things to learn from osteopathy. "Their hypothesis makes it impossible to practice medicine by telephone," he says. "You' ve got to use your hands and be involved. What they do differently, I think is very modest. After all, physiotherapists use massage; orthopedists use manipulation. It's the social and political differences that have to be resolved. "I think medical men expect us to cannibalize osteopathy. To my way of thinking, this isn't so. I don't expect it to happen in my lifetime." To that thought, Magen adds a fervent amen. What he foresees is not amalgamation, but accommodation, a point he emphasized in his talk to the Joint MD-OO meeting. "Both professions have a mandate from the people of this state to show that two primary health care professions can coexist," he said, adding that the time for recriminations has passed. "We have been forced by outside interests into a new maturity. Hopefully, what we do in this city will seta pattern for cooperation for both professions throughout the nation."

Reeves • • • • (Concluded from page 1) THESE RECOLLECTIONS and many others, from educational leaders and recent MSU former public servants, form a key chapter in the dissertation of student Barbara A. Nicholas. Unlike most dissertations-those forbidding books, bound in black and abandoned on library shelves-Barbara's is the compassionate story of one man's almost incalculable contributions to American education. Her book opens on a picture of Reeves: Pipe in mouth (his trademark); strong chin thrust slightly forward; his steady gaze looking out through vintage eyeglasses under thick white eyebrow. His conservatively striped suit belies the innovator inside. Her work is dedicated: ~'To Floyd W. Reeves who had the. ambition, the courage, the ego and the briliianceio make a difference." That one sentence really sums it up. The details of the lifetime that made such a differe'nce to Michigan State, to junior college curricula in Dlinois, to the Philippines, to three presidents and to the nation's college-bound G.I.s. These details would fill a book. Coincidentally, Barbara Nicholas received the Ph.D; the same day that MSU paid its highest tribute-the honorary doctor of laws degree-to a loyal servant, Reeves, age 80, distinguished professor emeritus of education. IN 1922 he left elementary and secondary school teaching and administration, moved on to university teaching and his own advanced degrees, and in 1929 launched what was to be the most productive, important and longest phase of his career. He joined the faculty of the University of Chicago. As professor of education and director of the University of Chicago Survey, he conducted a monumental study of more that 100 institutions of higher learning. Reeves envisioned things happeniJlg today such as the expansion of adult education- centers, use of television as a teaching aid, and student exchange programs around the world. In a forecast placed in the cornerstone of the graduate education building at the University of Chicago in the early 1930s, Reeves stated: "There will be a tendency to make more extensive use of mass production methods in education. This will result in a more highly centralized educational system. Educational centers will be established for the purpose of broadcasting lectures, music, art exhibits, and demonstrations of various kinds. "Methods employed in broadcasting will include the filmophone and television. Travel will have an important place in formal school programs ... " While still serving on the Chicago faculty, Reeves began his long career as a public servant. From 1933-35, he was director of personnel and of social and economic planning for the Tennessee Valley Authority. He soon became known nationally and internationally, serving in key administrative positions for President Franklin D. Roosevelt: Chairman of the advisory committee on edu,cation; director of the American Youth Commission of the American Council on Education; chairman of the Conference on Post-War Readjustment of Civilian and Military Personnel in which he helped draft the "G.1. Bill of Rights." He also headed the UNESCO Consultative Educational Mission to the ' Philippines. JOHN E. IVEY, MSU's dean of education, was an associate of Reeves during the TVA years. It is his belief that Reeves is responsible for more things than he will be given credit for and that "he is probably one of the four or five most productive people who has developed in this country in the last 20 to 40 years." Reeves, who has received honorary degrees from five universities and been asked to head three others, fmally came to MSU as a full-time faculty member in 1953. . He :.Continued to serve as a consultant to President Hannah in untold ways, including the selection of deans, revision of curricula, and innovations in administration. "Reeves was probably as influential m relation to President Hannah as anyone on campus," Wilbur B. Brookover reports. "His recommendations were not always followed, but this University has a clear stamp of Floyd W. Reeves." While . conceding that every man must have weaknesses too, Nicholas contends that "Reeves never could have ~ ?~ !~ ... ~t 4<..,i!:':~';·~A> ';: __ .>~ f. ~~."" • EX . for Space its general limitations dictate that material submitted for the "Achievements" section be considered interest or importance.
