ZCHES AID PLANS OVER 300 RECEIVE AID During the Past Two Weeks the University Loan Committee Received Over $16,000. Loans issued to men and women students at the University since Sept. 1 total $55,000, according to figures compiled in the office of Dean J. A. Bursley and issued yes- terday afternoon. This total is an increase of 40 per cent over the 1929 figures of $42,000 between Sept. 1 and Oct. 15. Average Loan Less. Although the total number of loans this year has been 338 as com- pared with 241'in 1929, the amount of each loan has averaged less than last year and the number of loans' increased but 30 per cent over the last figure. Up to July 1 of this year 1,370 loans had been made by the University which were outstanding comprising a total of $180,000 of available funds. Although totals are not complete to date, the September to October loans swell the July figure to $235,000 divided among 1,708 students. Few loans in com- parison to this fall's issue were made during the summer session. The addition of $16,500 to the Unversity loan fund totals during the last two weeks has slightly re- lieved the situation, Dean Bursley stated, and has made possible a slight reserve which was more than ever necessary this year with the demand twice as large as any pre- vious semester. More than twice as many applicants for loans present- ed their petitions before the com- mittee this year than in normal sea- sons, while the available fund was smaller than usual. Unsolicited Funds Received. One of the features of the recent additions was the fact that all the money given for use in loan funds since the opening of the present school term was for either men or women students, to be decided by the University committee on loans. Practically no funds previously re- mained for women students, except such as provided rooms at a speci- fied residences for a certain length of time, or loans otherwise restrict- ed. The new loans available for University use came unsolicited into the office of the loan committee fol- lowing news stories in local and foreign papers of the problems which students faced during the current year and the heavy demand for financial aid. HOOVER PREPARES TO HELP JOBLESS Cabinet Committee Appointed to Act During Winter. (By Associated Press) WASHINGTON, Oct. 17. - Ap- pointment of a cabinet committee to cope with unemployment during the winter was announced today by President Hoover. The group, composed of Secre- taries Lamont, Davis, Wilbur, Hur- ley, Hyde and Mellon,'and Gover- nor Meyer, of the federal reserve board, is to formulate and submit to Mr. Hoover plans for continuing and strengthening organization of federal activities for increased em- ployment. The decision to name the com-- mittee came after a series of busi- ness conferences between the chief executive and financiers at which short selling on the stock market was one of the subjects discussed.

MIHGANTO HAVE LARGE TELESCOPE Professor Curtis Says Research Facilities Will be Among World's Finest. WILL WEIGH FIVE TONS Michigan will have the third largest reflecting telescope and one of the finest plants for research and instruction in the world, Prof. Herber D. Curtis, new director of the University observatory, an- nounced yesterday. It will take at least three and a half years and possibly five years to bring these plans to fulfillment, Professor Curtis said. "It is plan- ned to construct an 80-inch reflec- ting telescope but to cast the re- flector of a telescope of this size takes a long time. The reflector must be cooled down very gradu- ally to make it perfectly homogen- ous and flawless. An electrical process is used which cools down the glass from its original temper- ature of about 1500 degrees, three degrees a day. Naturally, such a process takes a long time. When completed the reflector will be 80- inch in diameter, from 10 to 12 inches thick and weigh about five tons." At present Professor Curtis is concentrating his efforts on the mounting and building for the 80- inch telescope, later other units will be planned. Besides a building for the large reflector there will also be a building for the 37 1-2-inch reflecting telescope which is in use now, a residence for the director, and another building for the men in the department to stay in when they come out to the observatory for the week-end or overnight. The entire project is estimated to cost between a half million and a mil- lion dollars. The new observatory will be built about 18 miles northwest of town, near Base lake. Curtis feels that the University has purchased an ideal spot. The ground on which the new observa- tory will be built is thickly wooded and isolated from any town or ob- jects which might prove to be dis- turbing factors.

Wright, President of Federated Churches of Cleveland, to Open Series. A series of nationally recognized leaders in religious and intellectu- al fields will be scheduled to ad- dress the university convocations which are to take place on the last Sunday of each month during the current school year, it was an- nounced yesterday by John Lederle '33, chairman for the newly organ- ized university convocation com- mittee. Held Sunday Nights. These Sunday evening student convocations, which are held in Hill auditorium, are being sponsor- ed by the churches of Ann Arbor and the Student Christian associa- tion. There will also be represent- ed on the committee that has charge of the convocations a rep- resentative of the Michigan league, the Union, and the Student Coun- cil. According to Lederle the com- mittee intends to make a vigorous effort to obtain men who will at- tract and interest a large number of students. Men outside of relig- ious work who are leaders in their field of endeavor and have an in- spiring message to give will be ob- tained, besides well known minis- ters of various denominations. On October 26 the first evening service will be held at which Louis C. Wright, president of the feder- atchurches of Cleveland and pastor of the Epsworth-Euclid Methodist church, will be the speaker. On January 25 Sailor Mathews of the Chicago Divinity school will speak before the con- vention. Other men who are being con- sidered by the committee are Henry Crane of Scranton, Pa., who spoke in Hill auditorium last year Ibfre an enthusiastic audience, Timothy Stone of the Chicago DI- vinity school who also was given a warm reception in Ann Arbor last year, and Dr. M. S. Rice, Methodist pastor in Detroit. Churches Give Money Both the Student Christian as- sociation and the various churches of Ann Arbor are making it pos- sible financially to bring this group of speakers here. Each de- nomination represented by a church in Ann Arbor will give to the convocation fund an amount proportional to the number of stu- dents enrolled in the university who belong to that denomination. This proportion will be computed by consulting the files of the Stu- Sdent Christian association where there is a card filled out by each student giving his church member- ship or church preference. The method will be for each church to pay a certain small sum to the fund for each of the university students who have signified their preference for membership in that particular denomination. The Stu- dent Christian association will probably give 200 dollars to the fund outright.

HAYNES ANSWERS COUNTY'S CHARGE Says Hospitalization Cost $2,000 Less Last Year. Reiterating his stand that Wash- tenaw county has:not made a sav- ings by sending indigent sick to hospitals other than the University Hospital, Dr. Harley A. Haynes, director of the University hospital, said that while the figures of L. O. Cushing, chairman of the coun- ty board of auditors, "may be con- vincing, they do not include the $10,000 paid to University hospital" Dr. Haynes, in replying to a statement made yesterday by Cush- ing, stated that the chairman "mentions only the amount paid to St. Joseph's Mercy Hospital. "Mr. Cushing neglects the $10,- 000 that was paid to University hospital over the eight-month period from Jan. 1 to Sept. 1. If this amount is added to $29,44x.97, the amount paid St. Joseph's for a nine-month period, the total Game to be Received Ov*er Radio in Union Radio equipment has been in- stalled and accommodations for more than 250 students have been arranged in the ballroom of the Union for the Michigan-Ohio State game today, Albert F.

General Costa announced the capture of the city of Itarare, in the hotly contested Sao Paulo- Parana sector, and at the same time addressed 'a message to all Brazilians predicting victory and insisting on the resignation of the government. The capture of Itarare, import- ant rail head on the line leading to the city of Sao Paulo, is disputed by federal sources.

Predicts Victory for Formeri Ambassador in New Jersey d Elections Next Month. POSITION 'ESTABLISHED' the gridiron background. Coach Willaman, realizing this, will present the full force of his ricky offensive which he has been working on all week, and indications are that much of his game will be played via the overhead method with the great Fesler on the receiv- ng end of the tosses. Michigan will also probably resort to an aerial at- tack since Newman seems a cer- tainty to start at quarterback. The injury to Norm Daniels, which may keep him out of the game today, will hurt the Wolverine passing attack since he is one of the best receivers on the squad. It was Daniels who caught Newman's long pass for the first Maize and Blue score in the Purdue game and started the Wolves on the way to their 14-13 victory. Michigan Conceded Edge. This win over Purdue gives Mich- igan an edge in the predictions to- day since the Boilermakers were considered one of the best teams in the Conference prior to last Satur- day. Past figures stretching over a period of time since 1897 also give the Wolverines an edge with Michi- gan having won nineteen and tied two of the 26 times the two schools have met on the gridiron. In these games the Maize and Blue has roll- ed up a total of 492 points against 110 for the Buckeyes. However, the last two games have both resulted in Ohio State wins by a 19-7 in 1928 and a 7-0 count last season. lrU V v s 1 r x t r.
