prise maintained by the Alumni
association-the Alumni Press, with
a staff of employees, established in
1924 to print the Alumnus and car-

association and other University or-
ganizations. The press is in a base-

Michitgan was the first western I
institution to establish an alumni

Speaking on "Background," Prof.
D.B McLaughlin, of the astronomy
department, will open the Tolstoy
