GEOLOGY COURSE TO INCLUDE NEW FEATURES THIS SEMESTER Special features will be included this semester in the course in geolo- gy 20 given by Mr. Frank Leverett, lecturer on glacial geology in the de- partment of geology. Instead of con- fining the study to one continent, as has been done heretofore, the glacial features' of both Europe and North America will be considered, the ter- ritory studied including various bat- tlefields' of Italy and northern France, in so far as they contain material for, glacial research. The course will consist of two reci- tations a week for six weeks, after' which the class will make excursions t3 Detroit, Flint, and other nearby points. The elementary course in gen- eral geology. is a prerequisite to the course, which is open to students of the, literary, engineering, and graduate departments. Mr. Leverett may be consulted regarding the course at 7 o'clock tonight in room 327G, Natural Science building. 1 _ CASH FOR LIBERTY BONDS David A. Killins & Sons 107 1at National Bank Bldg. TRANSATLANTIC FLIGHT NOT A SPORTING STUNT PROF. PAWLOWSKI SAYS PRACU TICAL VALUE SHOULD BE CONSIDERED According to Felix W. Pawlowski professor of aeronautical engineering, a translantic flight promises to be an accomplishment in a few years. Professor Pawiowski says, "The transatlantic flight should not be con- sidered, as it often is, as a stunt or a sporting performance unlikely to be duplicated; its value then would be meaningless for practical purposes. Need Faster Communioatioun "What we really need is a faster and a safer means of communication. The present 'surface methods' of loco- motion, whether on land or water, have already reached their limit ef speed. We can travel no faster eith- er on trains, automobiles or boats; not because it would cost too much, but because It would be too danger- ous. "The whole great future of aero- nautics is guaranteed by the fact that (as is the case of aviation) the safe- ty of travel increases with the speed. "In the future development of aero- nautics the question of long distance flights without re-fuelling is of great importance. A route linking Amer- ica and Europe is now under discus- sion. Problem Will Be Solved "Personally, I do not doubt for a moment, that the problem will be solved successfully within the next few years, although it offers consid- erable difficulties at the present mo- ment. The difficulties are purely technical and the way to overcome them is clear. "From the many projects, now giv- en publicity, the one allowing for sev- eral igtermediate stops on the ocean for the purpose of re-fuelling, must be rejected as it involves too many difficulties and dangers foreign to the problem itself. "The flight must be a continuous one. The shortest gap between the two continents is 1900 miles (New- foundlandIreland). Another route which is considered is from New- foundland to Portugal via the Azores, comprising two gaps of 1200 and 900 miles respectively. To take care of deviation from the curse and con- trary winds a margin of some 50 per cent must be added. Thus an airplane for a transatlantic flight must be able to fly-a distance of 1800 or of 2800 miles without re-fuelling. At pre- sent this seems to be entirely within the possibilities. The present long distance flight record is 1400 miles. New Era for Dirigibles "It is impossible for me to discuss the various types of airplanes pro- posed for the accomplishment of this flight, as it could be of little interest to readers of The Daily. But I may mention another possibility which seems to open up a new ea for dir- igibles, discovered also by American genius. "I refer to some two or three big plants in Texas that are now produc- Ing'Helium in large quantities to sup- plant the use of the dangerous hydro- gen. "Helium was discovered in the na- tural gas in certain areas around Kansas, Texas and Oklahoma, by Pro- fessor Carter of the University of Kansas. Now, through the instru- mentality ofuthe United States army ,and navy authorities in collaboration with Professor Carter and Professor Davis, the gas has been collected and compressed and cooled down in the same kind of an apparatus that is used to liquify air. About one per cent of helium is obtained by this process. The perfection of this process of helium production is so recent an ac- c plishment that there has been no o~ortunity to test these helium fill- ed ballons. The premature armistice prevented their use by America in the present war. PROF. C. H. FESSENDEN RE- TURNS FROM LONG ABSENCE Prof. Charles H. Fessenden of' the mechanical engineering departmentI returned this week to the University after a leave of absence. Professor Fessenden left the University in Au- gust, 1917, with a commission of cap-1 tain in the engineering corps of the U. S. army. He was ordered to Phila- delphia, where he was given charge of the construction of an extensive addi- tion to the Frankfort arsenal. The arsenal was engaged during the war in the production of small arms and ammunition, and of artillery and fire control instruments. Later Captain Fessenden was plac- ed in complete charge of the depart- ments of plumbing and printing of the electrical work of the arsenal. LOCAL PROFESSOR SENT TO SOUTH AMERIC BY US. DR. W. L. SCHURZ ACCEPTS POST AS FOREIGN TRADE COM- MISSIONER Dr. W. L. Schurz, assistant professor1 of Latin American history at the Uni- versity, returned last week fromt Washington for a short visit, prior to his departure next month for South< America as United States trade com- missioner to Paraguay and Bolivia. Dr. Schurz is well informed on con- ditions in Latin America, and will in- vestigate industrial and agriculturalf activity, as well as the mines, railroadI and trade situations for the govern- ment. While his official position will- include only the two countries men- tioned, he plans an extensive trip over the continent, and expects to spend a year and a half in his work. To Visit Brazilian Capital Sailing from New York about March 1, Dr. Schurz will go first to Brazil, spending a few days in Rio de Janeiro before continuing by sea to Buenos Aires in the Argentine. His route then takes him up the Paraguay River into Paraguay, where he will spend several months at Asuncion, Villa Rica, and in the Gran Chaco. On completion of his work in this country he will continue up the river, cutting across to Santa Cruz and Co- chabamba in Bolivia, and then detour- ing up the Mamore, at the headwaters of the Amazon, into the rubber coun- try. Returning southwestward by the Beni'River, he will stop at La Paz and the old silver center, Potosi. This trip in Bolivia with stops will take about a year, and will cover over three thous- and miles, part of which will be made on mule through the wilderness. From Bolivia he will travel by rail into Chile, and then by steamer up the western coast through the Panama Ca- nal and to New York. Specially Fitted for Work' Dr. Schurz left the University last Sepember to take up work in Wash- ington on the Colonel House' inquiry in connection with the Latin American division of the department of com- merce. He has made an intensive study of South America, and because of his special fitness Vas chosen by the gov- ernment for this position. Dr. Schurz will return to Michigan when the work is completed to resume his place on the faculty of the his- tory department. STONER BACK FROM WASHINGTON D. C. Prof. W. Gordon Stoner of the Law school has resumed his work in that department after four months' ser- vice in the engineering division of the motor transport corps at Washington, D. C. He was transferred in October to this branch of service after serving for some time as captain in the am- bulance section, supply division of the surgeon general's office. He retain- ed the same rank after being trans- ferred to the motor corps and was later promoted to majr. At the time of his release from ser- vice, Professor Stoner was in charge of organization and administrative work in the motor transport corps. Profs. W. T. Fishleigh of the auto- mobile engineering department, W. C. Hoad of the sanitary engineering de- partment, and C. S. Berry of the edu- cation department were other Mich- igan men stationed at the capital at the same time as Professor Stoner. LIEUT. L. J BAUER, EX-'19A, KILLED IN PRACTICE FLIGHT Lieut. Lawrence J. Bauer, ex-'19A, was killed in France two days after the signing of the armistice, accord- ing to word just received here. Bauer was an observer with an American day-bombing flying squadron, and his death occurred during a practice flight. The machines were flying on a nar- row field at one side of which was a large clump of bushes. On the day of his death, Bauer and his pilot en- countered a heavy wind and were forced to steer into the bushes where their machine was brought safely to a stop. A plane following Bauer's ma- chine tried to clear the bushes but, failing to do so, struck Bauer as he was climbing out of his machine. He was hurled about 30 feet and his back broken. Bauer had taken his bombing train- ing at the American school at Cler- mont-Ferrand, France, and served as an instructor for two months.
