THE MICHIGAN DAILY llen Talks On C.C.C. Program; Praises Work Tress And Public Admit Gain In Health, Morale Of Workers, He Says Hope that the Civilian Conserva- ion Corps in some form may be nade a permanent institution in our .ational life was expressed in a radio alk last night by Prof. Shirley W. llen of the forestry school. Speaking on the achievements of tie corps, Professor Allen declared hat its work during the past sum- ner has put Michigan 15 years ahead n the physical improvement phase f conservation, and that this gain is robably true of the country as a rhole. "The press and the public in gen- ral have been generous in recogniz- ag the dividends of health, morale, reparation for citizenship, and wide- pread distribution of cash relief as bvious objectives which have been erved," he said. "Not so obvious nor so fairly rec- gnized has been the vast accomp- shment in actual useful work de- igned to maintain, improve, and nake available our wealth of natural esources, much of which has been lanned or 'pecked away at' for the ast two or three decades. "Young men have learned to live nd work together. This is significant aid it may be that watching them as had a profound effect on the nany Federal, State, and local ,gencies involved. This certainly is ot the least of the achievements f the corps," Professor Allen' de- lared. Prof. Howard M. Wight of the for- stry school concluded the program vith a discussion of suggestions for heasant management in southern Michigan, based on a research project which he has conducted. Declaring that children should be nade "music conscious" at an early ge, Miss Marion Flagg, music in- tructor at the Horce Mann School of teachers College, Columbia Univer- ity, asserts that every home should e a miniature grand opera with all onversations between children and heir parents taking place in a sing- ;ong, chanting, manner. Menefee Develops New Method Fastest Plane To Record S tresses On Steel Of Kind Tested Engineers have long sought a method of testing the strength of steel in railway, automobile, and steamship constructions, to determine reactions in the case of sudden wrenches or shocks which produce stresses on these structures. By combining a "telemeter," a tiny moving mirror, or oscillograph, and a camera, Prof. Ferdinand N. Men- efee of the College of Engineering, reports that steel beams may be sub- jected to all sorts of test blows in the laboratory and their reactions permanently recorded for reference. The practical uses of the new shock determining apparatus are numerous and varied, according to Professor Menefee. "Instantaneous load stress has long been a bugbear to engineers designing bridges, buildings, dirigible frames or other structures liable to sudden stresses, which may produce quite different effects from ordinary continuous loads," he states. The tests which demonstrate this fact were run on an apparatus con- taining a telemeter in which two car- bon rods are placed in contact so that a definite electrical current flows steadily through them. To this is wired an oscillograph, a delicate elec- trical meter, with a small mirror mounted to swing with changes in current, instead of the familiar dial and pointer. A narrow beam of light is focused on the mirror, from which it is reflected to a slowly moving motion picture film. In experiments the telemeter is£ placed under the beam to be tested. A sudden blow causes the beam to yield, compressing the carbon rods. This makes the electrical contact bet- ter, more current shoots briefly through to the oscillograph, agitating the mirror and zig-zagging the light line being photographed, leaving a definite record of the reaction of the steel beam to the blow. First University Lecture Given Today By Curtis The first in the series of Univer- ity lectures will be given today by Prof. Heber D. Curtis on "Modern Aspects of Astronomy." The lecture will be given at 4:15 p. m. in Na- tural Science Auditorium, and will be illustrated with lantern slides. In Laboratory The University wind tunnel in the basement of the East Engineering Building is being worked overtime these days, according to Mr. W. A. Johnson, '33E, special representative of the Lockheed Airplane Corp. of Burbank, Calif. Mr. Johnson is in charge of wind tunnel tests of a small model of a revolutionary new transport pl'ane for the Lockheed Corp. When completed it will be the fastest transport plane in the world, capable of a speed of 204 miles an hour whilecruising and a maximum speed of 225 mi.p.h. Of course these are approximate speeds, Mr. Johnson said, but through the tests the speed may be reckoned within one or two miles. The new plane will be able to make the Los Angeles to Chicago flight in 12 hours. Wing flaps will be provided to decrease the landing speed. There will also be a change in the formation of the pilot's cowl- ing which will enable the pilot to land more easily at night, through the elimination of the glare of lights, according to Mr. Johnson.
