Engineering Dean Sees Greater
Building Period Due to
Engineering Advances.
Near future developments in en-
gineering will usher in a period of
achievements which bids to be even
more interesting than the recent
period which saw such great for-
ward strides in macnines, transpor-
tation, buildings and public utility
services of all kinds, according to
Dean Alfred H. Lovell of the Engi-
neering school.
Dean Lovell speaking before Sig-
ma Rbo Tau, engineers' forensic}
society, Wednesday night said that J

tnis great advance in engineering
to come will call for the greates
skill and finest training of engi-
neers in all branches.
Super Highways in View.
Some immediate developments iT
civil engineering said Dean Lovel
will be "an increase in the volum
and speed of our vehicular traffi
so that we shall have to have a
system of superhighways unde
state control."
"All cross traffic," he continued
"will be passed underneath or or
elevated structures above such a
roadway, so that long haul running
speeds of 70 to 80 miles per hour
will be possible."
As a part of this system greal
bridges must necessarily be buil
and as Dean Lovell pointed out
construction of these will rest with
engineers being trained today.
In the fields of geodesy and sur-
veying new equipment and methods
are constantly improving these en-
gineering practices. Surveying will
be brought into new prominence by
the necessity of accurately laying
straight line routes to connect the
population centers of the nation,
Dean Lovell pointed out.
"The nation is alreadyncrossed
east t west and west to north by
the numerous triangulation chains
which locate points both in dis-
tance and direction with a mini-
auUm accuracy of one-quarter of an
ich per mile," declared Dean
Lovell, "and the surveyor who is
to "participate in this precise work

Sees Electrical Progress.
Advancement in electrical engi-
neering is producing tremendous
generators with power as high as
I.0,000 kilowatts In one frame and
ef icencies of 965 per cent and
above. These new generators will
be of great use in efforts to break
down the atom, a problem which
at present is baffling science.
Particular advancements are be-
ing made in many other branches
of engineering. Marine engineers
are developing larger and faster
ocean liners, aeronautical engi-
neers are constructing faster and
safer flying craft for private and
commercial use, and chemical en-
gineers are becoming responsible
for new processes in the manufac-
ture of steel, gas, coke, petroleums,
rubber, paint ceramics, etc. In con-
clusion Dean Lovell pointed out
that engineers will be faced with
administrative and executive prob-
lems related to future engineering
projects in the large field open to
rising engineers, and that they will
be serving the government upon
nnerous boards, commisisons, and
in connection with the construction
of public works.

Rehearsals Begun for Christmas
Performance; Will Be
Given Dec. 17.
Plans for the annual Christmas
concert which the band, Men's and
Girls' Glee clubs will give Wednes-
day, Dec. 16 in Hill auditorium are
1already under way. All three or-
ga: izations are busy rehearsing for
thu event and from all indications
: colorful and varied program
should be given.
The Varsity band, following a
successful season on the football,
field has been cut down to its con-
cert size, 65 pieces, and several re-
hearsals other than the regular
Wednesday night practice sessions
will be held. Nicholas D. Falcone,
director, has been drawing up a
tentative program ror the event
and will announce the numbers in
the near future.
After a number of concerts which
have taken it to several surround-
ing cities and towns, the Men's
Glee club, numbering 70 men, is
also rehearsing for the concert un-
der Prof. David M. Mattern, the di-
rector.
Nora Crane Hunt, director of
the Girls' Glee club, has rehearsed
her organization for the event and
a varied program of songs will be
presented by the organization.
The concert, as has been the cus-
tom in the past, will be open to
the public.

physician, said yesterday in an in-
terview.
According to Dr. Brace, the ne-
cessity to check colds in their early
stages is important because of the
high chances one runs by permit-
ting the disease germs to spread
around the members of the body;
hence, a cold may develop into
grippe, pneumonia, mastoid, or
other more serious illnesses.
Plenty of water and regular hours
serve as good remedies for the com-
mon cold. The diet should be
watched only when fever is present,
and it should then consist of light
foods and liquids.
"Despite the drenching received
in the Michigan State football
game," Dr. Brace said, "we had
very few students here with colds,
largely because they clanged cloth-
ing and took hot baths immediate-
ly after the game."
Research work now carried out
to investigate causes and cures for
Engineers to Inspect
Sugar Beet Factory
Prof. J. C. Brier of the Chemical
Engineering department of the
school of engineering will conduct
40 Seniors and Graduate engineer-
ing students on a trip to Blissfield,
Michigan today to inspect a sugar
beet factory.
The party will leave Ann Arbor
by special bus at 11 o'clock this
morning and will return this eve-
ning.
These inspection trips for stu-
dents are part of the series of ex-
cursions designed to give them ill-
ustrations of the practical use of
principles which they are studying.
colds is as extensive as that car-
ried out for any other disease pre-
valent to man.
"A large money grant has been
given in Baltimore for this inves-
tigation, and those in charge of it
make use of the Johns Hopkins
laboratories. Whenever d o c t o r s
treat a patient for a cold they take
smears of the germs, and make var-
ious tests.
"Investigation here at the Health
Service is largely statistical."
Commenting on the cold vacc ines
so popular now, Dr. Brace said that
only about 40 per cent of these vac-
cinations ever serve as a sure
check.

MAJORITY OF MEN STUDENTS LIVE
IN APPROVED HOUSES, SA YS DEAN
Flowers of Satsf acti
More than 75 per cent of the men
students in the University live in
approved rooming houses according
to a =report just released by the
office of the Dean of Students.
Surroundings which are up to a
reasonable standard of cleanliness
and comfort are important in a
successful college life, the Univer-
sity believes, and has for many
years maintained an inspection of
men's rooming houses.
Freshman are required to live in
approved houses, 'others are not.
Furthermore t h e student pays,
markedly less for this accomoda-
tion this year than last. A student
occupying a single room may save
$38 or more over, the cost 'of a like
lodging last year.
(A total of 791 rooming houses
were inspected by the dean's office
of which 682 were approved and 109

memory was refreshed by a letter
dealing with the transaction chang-
ed the figure to $127.50.
