etween 1,300 and 1,400 freshmen arrived at the University of Maine’s B Orono campus on Thursday (Sept. 10) to participate in a four-day orientation period prior to the opening of classes on Monday, Sept. 14. The first-year students registered for courses, met with deans, academic advisors, and instructors, and took tours of the expanding campus facilities. After one arrives . . . Five general assemblies were held during the four-day period. The entire group first met for a welcome program Thursday in Memorial Gymna- sium with University President Lloyd H. Elliott serving as host. Other get-togethers were: a mixer dance on Friday in Lengyel Hall, with Campus Mayor Sargent Means as host; a general assembly on Saturday at the Memorial Gymnasium with Stanley Sloan, President of the General Student Senate as host; a reception on Sunday at the Memorial Union with President and Mrs. Elliott as hosts; and a Student Religious Association assembly on Sunday in the Memorial Gymnasium with Rev. Harvey Bates as host. A welcoming talk to parents about State University activities was given on Thursday in the Hauck Auditorium. Dr. H. Austin Peck, vice president for academic affairs, and Dean of Men John Stewart and Dean of Women Mary Zink spoke. The department of military science conducted a meeting and unpacks . . . for all freshman men and interested parents at 4 p. m. in the Hauck Auditorium on Thursday in order to acquaint the freshmen with the university’s ROTC program. The entire orientation program was carried out under the direction of Barry M. Millett, director of Freshman Week and Assistant Dean of Men.

OCTOBER-NOVEMBER, 1964 15 The University Page

i t h the passage a few months ago of the Revenue Act of 1964, certain changes from previous years will affect some donations to the University of Maine. Marts and Lundy, Inc., a fund W raising counseling firm, has pointed up four areas in which law changes may help donors.

1. The top limit—30 per cent of the individuals’ income—is broad­ ened to cover contributions to all publicly supported organizations other than private foundations. Formerly, a person could give the 30% limit of adjusted gross income only if the last 10% were given to “a church, a convention or association of churches, an educational organization, or a hospital. The new regulation now allows the total 30% deduction to include all contributions to recognized charitable organizations.

2. People whose contributions in a year exceed the deductible limits (i.e. 30% of adjusted gross income) are allowed to “carry for- ward” their excess donations for use as deductions in five future years. This regulation, under the former law, was permitted only to taxpayers in the 90% bracket. Now, the regulation is extended to all taxpayers.

3. In a similar regulation, the two-year carry-forward allowed cor- porations under the old law is now extended to five years. In other words, the corporation which exceeds its five per cent allowable deduction for contributions can carry over the excess for five years rather than for two.

4. Deductions for donating art objects and other physical assets are denied until the property is delivered. This regulation prevents a donor from giving an institution a painting, for example, and then being allowed to keep it for his own enjoyment until he wants to give the institution actual physical possession of the painting. He can’t get the deduction until the property is delivered.

Under the GM apprentice plan, they are learning the diemaker’s skills. Once they have mastered this craft—and it will take them four years (8,000 hours) of on-the-job training and classroom study—each will be a skilled journeyman, qualified to make the complex dies, jigs and fixtures so vital to modern industry. This year, 2,753 General Motors apprentices are being trained for this and other trades—more than 30 in all. They are learning to be pattern makers, pipefitters, bricklayers, toolmakers, diesinkers, electricians and millwrights, to name a few. From the time they start training they are paid good wages on a regular rising scale. At the conclusion of their four-year courses, apprentices will have gained skills that will serve them well throughout their working careers. They are free, of course, to work anywhere they wish—but most stay with GM. We’re glad of that. We need them. Talented people are indispensable to General Motors. The A rt o f
