Page 2 THE ARGUS - Illinois Wesleyan University, Friday, March 22, 1974 Forum By Belle Worley and Mary Meinert A man with a college degree can expect to earn about $13,000 per annum whereas a female college graduate can expect to earn only about $7,000 per year. This and many other issues were discussed Monday in the Munsell lounge when Dr. Emily Dale and Mrs. Pamela Muirhead spoke on the Equal Rights Amendment (ERA) and the rights of women in society. DR. DALE showed concern because "women constitute the largest minority group in the world" and in the world today, one's "opinions, attitudes, and worth- are significantly less be-cause you are are a woman." Mrs. Muirhead stressed a need to "combine personal conscious-ness with a consciousness with the law." In this way, women can learn their own potentials and the limitations placed on them by many laws which dis-criminate against them. MUCH DISCUSSION revolved about the proposed 27th Amend-ment to the United States Con-stitution. The ERA needs the approval of only five more states, including Illinois. After ratification, it will take two more ISU brings "Carousel" comedy this weekend The Music Theatre Depart-ment at ISU will present two performances of the musical comedy, "Carousel," at 8:15 p.m. Friday and Saturday, March 29- 30, in the University Auditor-ium. The romantic musical is acknowledged to be the greatest theatrical creation of Richard Rodgers and Oscar Hammer-stein II. Based upon Ferenc Molnar's classic play, "Liliom," "Carou-sel" features some of the most popular music ever composed for Broadway stage, including such songs as "If I Loved You," "You'll Never Walk Alone," "June is Bustin' Out All Over," "Soliloquy," "What's the Use of Wonderin'," and many others.

Un-der the current Social Security system, women receive benefits at 62, men at 65. This discre-pancy would be eliminated. THE ERA would make loans, jobs and insurance more acces-sible to women. It would also eliminate a backlog of cases on the books centering around sex discrimination, and wipe off the books aproximately 800 laws in the United States which discrim-inate against women. One of the greatest gains for women would be economic. Women are still not receiving equal pay for equal work.

Grand Funk, a four-man group with nine gold albums and 10 million record sales in the last five years, will appear Saturday at 8 p.m. in Horton Field House. The group ,which leader Mark Farner says is loud in order to "create an atmosphere in which there is nothing but the music, where the only reality is the beat and the rhythms," is the first of a series which will also bring John Denver, Chi Col-trane, Peter Yarrow and Edgar Winter to ISU.
