on lb. DAILY PRESS 6 Escanaba, September 13, 1955 Advice Offered By MSU Chaplain "Better Men and Women for a Better World" was the theme of Msgr. MacEachin's address to parents, students alumni of Michigan 5 State University last evening at the William Bonifas Auditorium. Msgr. MacEachin, chaplain at the eighth largest university in the United States, is making eight appearances in the Upper Peninsula in the interest of parents the spiritual difficulties college students encounter on a large college campus.

"There are many factors causing the high incident of failure among college students," Msgr. MacEachin stated, "and one of common is the lack of spiritual motivation and lack of facilities to provide for supplemental religious instruction. He emphasized the need of parental interest in what happens to children who go to college, and added that since the 'God of cation is the education of the parents have an obligation to co-operate with those delegated to care for the spiritual life of the student on the college campus. There will be over 3,000 Catholic students at M. S.

for the fall term, beginning next week, and the responsibility for their spiritual welfare falls largely on Msgr. MacEachin, more commonly known as "Father Mac" among the college students. He has been a Michigan State faculty member for 13 years, teaching credit courses in Catholic Theology and Christian Ethics. Following the address, a question and answer period was devoted to discussing the part which parents, alumni and students will share in the construction of the new Catholic Student Center on the M. S.

They identified her as Mrs. Wilfred Pleau, 43, mother of two children. A tourist court operator here, Joseph Eisemann, notified city police that a woman guest istered at one of the cabins apparently had lapsed into a coma.

She was pronounced dead upon arrival at a hospital. An autopsy failed to determine cause of the death, so internal organs were sent to the state police crime laboratory in Lansing for further analysis. Highway Speed Issue Avoided LANSING -Gov. Williams indicated today he may dodge recommending a controversial highway speed limit for Michigan when he calls the Legislature into special session next month. He told a press conference he may suggest a study committee be created to consider whether Michigan should abandon its longstanding unlimited speed policy for general highway driving.

Williams said he feared the question of a speed limit was so controversial that it would disrupt the special session he plans for about Oct. 25. He said he would have a tentative program of highway safety legislation ready this weekend and would mail a summary of it to legislators, law enforcement officials and others interested. He declined to speculate what might be included in the plan. The governor said he expected to spend most of the following week or 10 days conferring with law enforcement officials and others interested to obtain their views on his program.
