Followers of the prophet to the number of 225,000,000 will either pray for or look askance upon this gathering.

In his territory are the sacred, cities of Mecca and Medina and chief among his supporters are the Wahibis, puritanical Moslems who never did like the idea of being under the spiritual or temporal rule of thie Ottoman Turks. Their suspicions of the December conference rest upon the fact that, Abdul Medjid, cousin of the last sultan of Turkey, is the nominal caliph. When the tribes of Arabia, Syria, Mesopotamia and Palestine heededa "Lawrence of Arabia" and fought' with the allies in the World war,I lie of Turkey was proclaimed. At that time Abdul Medjid was named Caliph, his cousin Moham- med having been exiled by Kemal.

Caliph Loses Treasures. .The new republic separated church from state, reduced the privileges of the Mohammedan priests, banished the dervishes and finally, in 1924, requested Abdul Medjid to move on. He went toFrance and into re- tirement, dependent upon the char- ity of pious Mohammedan rulers. The treasures of the caliphate, hoarded for centuries in Turkey's capital, became the property of the new republic.

Police Arrest Local Chain Store Robbers Two men, both from D troit and giving their names as John Jones and Norries Hoffman, were arrest- ed early yesterday morning by of- ulcersrWier and Enhermann of the city police as they were about to break into a Kroger grocery store on Broadway. Examination of the men at the police office revealed that they had committed nine robberies of Detroit chain stores in the past six months. Cigarettes appeared to be the chief object of theft, for they confessed to having taken 40 car- tons from a chain store on Oak- man boulevard, 30 cartons from an- other on Grand River, and 50 car- tons from a third on Michigan ave- nue, as well as change from them cash registers in each store. The men were to be turned over to Detroit authorities for investi- gation concerning the offenses. prefers that isolation from the pub- lic gaze which is becoming in a man engaged in the pursuit of truth. He has, of course, very definite independent viewpoints on many. matters, both within and outside the realm of science, but he never assumes to speak with authority and would therefore give the im- pression that he has no opinions. This is more than counteracted by the fact that he is full of human interest. His eyes fairly twinkle, as he tells of that admirable quality of all American boys Who love to tinker with mechanical contrivan- ces and discover "what makes things go." He has the quick step, the kind- ly smile, and the clean-cut featuresl of a young man who has yet to faceI the problems of the world. He con- verses with the air of one who "really doesn't know, but would like very much to find out." And yet this "young man" of 65 years has been recognized by all the world as having reached the top in the field of organic chemistry. Doctor Gomberg has never mar- ried, and his purely sentimental liking for young ladies has been the occasion for much good-natured jesting on the part of his closer friends. He lives with his sister Sonia, in a charming though simple co>ttage, in a setting w hich exem- pils the simple tastes of both the Doctor and Miss Gomberg. Friends remark concerning the gayety and lack of formality which graces their. everyday lives, as compared with the public demureness for which Doctor Gomberg is famous. The Chemist ha an exceptional- ly high idealism of science and scholarship. The most remarkable aspect of his career is probably th fact that he has accomplished such wonders in the field of research while at the same time 'inspiring numerous students to develop their ! scientific abilities. His name is on a roster of men who have contributed to the pro- gress of chemistry in America dur- ing the past century that has been submitted to the National Research Council for use in planning an his- torical exhibit at the 1933 Chicag World's Fair. It is to be expected that when the plans for the roster are executed the famous Chemis will probably deny all knowledge o just why he should be so honored and his friends will wonder again VARSITY DE1ftTERS WILL MEET ALBWON Two Teams Picked for Opening Debate There Tonight; U. of D.
