"It is a fine thing at any time to be
at home with your own soul," was the
advice of Prof. J. 1. Brumm to the
sixty students and faculty members
of the School o% Pharmacy at their
annual all-Pharmacy banquet Tues-
day evening at the Michigan Union.
Prof. Brumm asserted that there are
two ideals for education which are at
present distinctly oppsed to each, oth-
er. The one, culture, he considers the
most worth while and the most bene-
ficial; the other, efficiency, he relegates
to a poslition of relative unimport-
ance in the scheme of things.
Fred R. Wotring, '31 was the toast-
master and introduced the speakers of
the evening including representatives
of the various, classes. Wayne J. Wat-
kins, Rex Green, Harry Benson, and
R. M. Twining represented the fresh-
man, sophomore, junior and senior
classes, respectively'
Dean Edward H. Kraus, in pre-
senting the prizes and medals for te
year, stressed the point that honorary
scholastic societies are a rather un-
ique characteristic of the American
University and that at present very
few organzations of this type exist
in European universities although
they are now being introduced into
many foreign schools.
The award of membership into Phi
Eta Sigma, national freshman honor-
ary group, was 'received by four out
of a class of 40 in the Pharmacy
school. Those named were: J. A. Pi-
anfetti, Fred R. Wotring, and W. J.
Watkins.
These men were chosen into Phi
Lambda Upsilon, honorary chemistry
organization for men, the three being:
Richard Byce, '28, Urban Oakdale, and
Oliver Weinkauf, while Miss.Dorothy}
Campbell, '28, was elected into Iota
Sigma Phi, women's honorary chemis-
try group Miss Cam'pbell is the first
woman in the pharmacy school to have
ever achieved this distinction.
Two pharmacists, 0. J. Weinkauf
and U. O. Oakdale were elected into
Phi Kappa Phi, which is to students
of pharmacy what Sigma Xi is to
to students of, general science, offers
an annual prize of $10 to the fresh-
man with the highest record for the
first semester and John Andrew P1-
anfetti was announced the winner for
this year.
The Charles Ralph Eckler prize,
which is given annually to the student
making the best drawings in Pharm-
acognosy I, was presented to Fred H.
Weinmann. Mr. Eckler, donor of the
award, is an alumnus of the class of
'02 and is at present a pharmacolo-
gist with Eli Lilly and Co, of Indian-
apolis. and his prize consists of a
set of almost two hundred crude
drugs, whch are boxed and enclosed

TEST PROVESTRYIN
Through the enterprise of ambitious;
Boston reporters several of the Bos-
ton papers have obtained some of'
the questions used in the recent Har-
vard-Yale brain fest.
Many are the complaints made by
athletes concerning the rigors or train-
ing, but one look at the knowledge'
required of brain athletes will make'
any physical athlete content with his
lot.
The examination occupied three 10
by 12 sheets printed in very small
type. Here are some of the selections
which met the warriors' eyes:
"Hikke the hosteilere hadde the cloke
In covenaunte that Clement shulde the
cup file
And have Hikkes hode hostellere and
holde hym yserved:
And whose repented rathest shulde
arise after
And grete Sire Glouton with a gal-
oun ale.
The contestants were to "show by
analysis of the contest, style, and dic-
tion of the passages in what ways theyI
are characteristic of their authors or
of the times in which they were writ-
ten."
The passage quoted is from Will
Langland's "Piers the Plowman," writ-
ten in the time of Chaucer, and is
supposed to be an example of glut-
tony, one of the seven deadly sins.
The exam consisted of three ques-
tions and each question required the
writing of five themes. Most of the
questions were based on English lit-
erature and a successful answer re-
quired a thorough, in fact, perfect,
knowledge of the subject.
The results of the contest will be
determined as soon as the judges have
compared the various answers.
One of the Harvard contestants,
suffering from a broken knee cap, took
the test in the hospital.

es which have been gathered, grouped,
and classified, mostly through the
work of Dr. C. H. Eigenmann, late
head of the Zoology department and
dean of the graduate school at In-

believed to be the largest of its kind
in the world. Most of the fishes have
been gathered by members of the
Zoology department under the direc-
tion of Dr. Eigenmann, although some
specimens from the collections of
Theodore Roosevelt and the collection
for a large British museum are pres-

WISCONSIN.---Miss Olga Rubinaw
of Philadelphia, a senior at the Uni-
versity of Wisconsin, has just recently
been added to the list of those refus-
ing membership to Phi Beta Kappa,
national honorary scholastic society.
M\Iiss Rubinow, in a letter declining
the honor, asserted that she believed
that high grades are not an indication
of true scholarship and that many
times students acquired the distine-
tion undeservedly.

YALE.---With the precedent once
'started of a puglilist openly avowing
himself a literary man, a "pug" here
at Yale has thrown discretion to the
winds and, following Gene Tunney,
announces that he too finds pleasant
and stimulating Homer, Herodatus,
Plutarch, and Shakespeare. Umbarto
Torrino is this man'-s name and of the
ten fights he has been in in Italy
none of his opponents lasted over four
rounds.
According to the statistics, which
were recently revealed by the Student
employment bureau, 97 of he class of
'28 are going to pursue graduate work,
15 with the ultimate intention of be-
comning teachers in high schools or.
universities, and 87 with the inten-
tion of entering some professional
line. Only 48 seniors have as yet
actually obtained positions.

maint ained by students and graduates,

tue employment, summer employ-
meni, and permanent work, both for
graduates and undergraduates.
the shore of Kangdenlugsdak fjord,l
near Mt. Evans, and near a long sandI
flat believed suitable for landing a
plane.
Speaking of the landing field, Pro-
fessor Hobbs said Tuesday, "While we
have provided photographs of the pos-.
sible landing field near Camp Lloyd,.
we are assuming no responsibility for
its being an adequate field. In oth-
er words, we will not be to blame
should a plane crash there in at-
tempting to land." - There is, how-
ever, the possibility that a flying man
to be chosen by Bert Hassel will be
added to the expedition as a regular
salaried, working member to advise in
aviation matters. Hassell's Rockford-
to-Copenhagen plane will refuel at
Camp Lloyd with gasoline to be car-
ried in by the Hobbs' expedition.
Lindbergh Rumors Start
Rumors that Col. Charles A. Lind-
bergh would attempt ,a transoceanic
flight via the arctic circle were re-
vived yesterday and Tuesday when he
landed at the Ford airport for a con-
ference with Major Thomas Lanphier.
It is known that Lindbergh and Lan-
phier have had their heads together
for some time over the feasibility of
such a flight.
Professor Hobbs has been called in-
to conference with Lanphier and Wil-
liam Mayo, chief engineer of the Ford
Motor company, within the last two
weeks with regard to the possibiliy
of such flights, and he has provided a}
party nominee, whoever that might be.
large amount of meteorological data
for Lindbergh and Lanphier.
A possible third flight, al'so, accord-
ing to Professor Hobbs, may be at-
tempted via Mt. Evans this summer,
but nothing as yet has been given out
with regard to the details. Weather
reports and predictions will be furn-
i'shedthe fliers from the Mt. Evans
station, and news of the fliers will be
given to the world through he short-
wave radio station maintained by the
expedition. The station has been sil-
ent since March 21 since Paul C. Os-
canyan Jr., radio operator left for
Copenhagen, but it will be reopened
by Francis M. Baer when he arrives
late in June, and Mt. Evan's will again
be in daily contact with United States
stations.
Expedition Costs $20,000
This year's expedition, costing
about $20,000 has been made possible
through gifts of alumni and friends of
the University, and a $5,000 contribu-
tion made by the Guggenheim founda-
tion for Promotion of Aeronautics.
In the list of donors are: O. D. Mor-
rill of Ann Arbor, C. S. Mott, president
of General Motors, Herbert H. Dow,
president of the Dow Chemical com-
pany of Midland, Senator James Cou-
zens, Edward S. Evans of Detroit,
holdre of the record for encircling the
globe, Dexter M. Ferry Jr., of Detroit,
president of the Ferry Seed company,
I and other prominent Detroit alumni.
