General Paul B. Malone when he lec-
tures at 7 o'clock on Wednesday night
April 25 in Natural Science auditori-
um. General Malone is well fitted to
speak on this topic, according to Ma-
jor Reinald Melberg, head of the Uni-
ve,,sity R. O. T. C., both by his record
in the World war and his reputation
as a speaker.
A graduate of West Point, Genera:

division and later the second brigade
of the second division. For his bravery
in action and efficiency in service he

REPORT STEALING
OF SPRING COAT.S
Four new spring topcoats were stolen
yesterda.y morning between 11 and 12
o'clock from the West Medical build-
ing, according to reports telephoned
in to the office of Irving W. Truettner,
maintenanceiinspector of the Build-
ings. anld Grounds (I-e)artni cut.
Fear was expre.-sed by W. A..Daven-
port, assistant superintendent of the
department, that this theft may mark
the' be.ginning of an epidemic of such
robberies, similar to that which ;oc-
curred four years ago when secret
thieves, after hundreds of coats had
been stolen.
"I would urge students to be very
careful of their coats during the next
few days," said Mr. Davenport. "There
is no way in which the Buildings and
Grounds department can recover
missing coats, and not even any ef-
fective way in which it can stop the
thefts. If students carry their
coat's into class with them inst'ead of
leaving them in the corridors, any
epidemic of thefts will be nipped in
the bud."

progress.
It is the aim and purpose of the
Michigan Night radiocasts to offer
to ithe radio audience, timely talks on
current event topics, athletics, scien-
tific advances, medical problems and,
the like. With the entire University
Faculty available for these addresses,
any numbers of engrossing speakers
have been heard on the various pro-
grams, according to the numerous
radio letters received by the local
station and WWJ.
Broadcasting during this year and
the last has been accomplished by
means of a direct wire connection
fror the campus studio on the fourth
floor of University hall and the De-
troit station. The programs have
been handled by Mr. Abbot from the
I local end, and have generally been
broadcast every other Friday night
throughout the school year between
7 and 8 o'clock.
Ip connection with the radio broad-
casting, a special University of Michi-
gan radio bulletin containing all the
talks broadcast during the year, has
cc-rn to be a permanent publication at
the end of each year. More demands
for it have been received this year
i than ever before, according to Mr.

(luring the Easter vacation. Friday
night, April 6, they gave a concert
before a group of alumni and towns-
people at Owosso, where they were
well received. They set out the next
day for Cadillac, but bad roads,
broken spriigs on their bus, and in-
clement weather prevented them irom
keeping the Saturday night engage-
ment and they remained at Reed City.
The following morning they pro-
ceeded to Cadillac where they sang in
the churches of the city for Easter
services, and gave a program at the.
Cadillac high school on Monday af-
ternoon. The regular concert ivas
given Monday night in the Presby-
terian church.
About forty .men made the trip, in-
cluding Robert 4. Campbell, faculty

certs conclude the regularly sched-
uled Glee club program for the year.

ever, and will practice for special f-
fairs during the spring.

LIBRARY DISPLAYS NUMEROUS OLD
MEDICAL BOOKS DATING FAR BACK

Rare medical books dating back to
the fifteenth- century are on display
in the Main library. The volumes are
frpm the Rare Book room of the
library and are part of the Haass and
Pilcher Vesalius Incunabula of medi-
cal books. There are not more than
20,000 incunabulae (books printed be-
fore 1500 by movable type) on record
today, and of these less than 10 per
cent are medical boks.
The exhibit contains books which
deal with the various conceptions of
the medical iscience. In the pre-
Vesalian era an erreneous id"a con-
cerning anatomy was advanced in a
book published by Mundinus which
was printed in 1521. In 1543 Vesaliui ,
the found(,r of the science c' anl-t,cmy,
publishled a book, "Fabrica," which
has had a profound influence on mod-
ern medicine.

One of the oldest medical books is
"Pharetra," ,printed - about 1472 by
Mentelin, a Stras'sburg printer who
was also a scribe and an illuminator.
The borders and beginning initials
were all ilettered by the author.
Abhumeron Avenzahar, a famous
physician of the 15th century, wrote
one of the most valuable Arabic med-
ical books, which was one of the few
to contradict "Galenism."
The exhibit was arranged for the
benefit of the American Anatoruy as-
sociation, amid the Bi3ological confer-
ence which was*held in Ann Arbor
during the vacation, and will con-
tinue during the present week.
