Another Day Of Searching For
Famed Tung Oil Jug Is In Vain

Special Sale ForJ
'Ensian Launched

A second day of fruitless search
for the sacred tung oil jug of the
Stump Speakers Society, campus
branch of Sigma Rho Tau, engineer-
ing speech organization, only stif-
fened the determination of Albert J.
Stone and his special committee of
15 to retrieve the trophy.
Although making no public or for-
mal accusations, Stone and his men
feel certain they are now on the
trail of the thieves who early Mon-
day morning stole the precious five-
gallon emblem from the official so-
ciety stump near the Engineering
Arch. Last night confidence ran high
in the engineers' camp. Prof. Robert
D. Brackett, director of the society,
declared in no uncertain tones, "We
will get that jug!"'
Dark hints were dropping concern-
ing a rival forensic society in the lit-
erary college, which has recently been
worsted in debates with the Stump
Speakers. Intimated, though not ex-
pressly charged, was that some of its
members are interested in preventing
the appearance of the jug at pledg-
ing ceremonies Wednesday, Nov. 15.
The freshman who left his post as
guardian of the jug for a fatal mo-
ment Monday, to get a bit of break-
fast, is blamed but not too severely
censured by the society officials. The
theft came as a genuine surprise, for
never before has the big jug been.
molested, although before every big
event of the society last spring it was
placed on the limestone stump. Al-
ways, however, it has had its guard
of honor.
Club officers declined to say what
they will do in the pledging cere-
mony if the jug is not recovered, they
are so certain of getting it on time.
An indispensable part of the pledging
rite is the quaffing by the neophyte
of tung oil from the tung oil jug, an
:act which symbolizes the acquisition
of an oily ,tongue, eloquence and di-
plomacy.
Tonight the society will review the
merits of 115 freshman applicants for
membership to determine which ones
""The WALL STREET JOUR-
NAL is business and financial
education. Send for sample copy
and special student rates with-
out obligation. 44 Broad Street,
New York."

will be pledged next week. Scholar-:
ship, past record, and especially
speaking ability will be considered.
Pledging of men entering with ad-
vanced standing, and transfers from
other branches of Sigma Rho Tau
will take place later in the season.
Initiation of all new members will
not be made until after the begin-
ning of the second semester.
Part of tonight's meeting will be
devoted to a legislative assembly in
which all present, both members and
visitors, can debate and vote. Fear
was expressed that an influx of so-
cialist students might force the meet-
ing to go on record favoring socialist-
ic or communistic propositions, using
tactics similar to those which almost
succeeded at the last legislative as-
sembly. Government ownership of
power plants will again be the topic
for discussion.

This morning will mark the be-
ginning of an extensive house-to-
house sales campaign for the Michi-
ganensian. The entire sales force
will cover the fraternities, sororities
and dormitories on the campus, the
sale to continue for approximately
two weeks, Bob Henoch, '35, sales
manager, announced yesterday.
A feature of the sale will be the
offering of a free copy of the year-
book to each fraternity or sorority
whose members purchase 15 books.
The name of the organization will be
engraved on the cover of the com-
plimentary copy, Henoch said.
Unlike other years, the price of the
'Ensian will not be raised at this
time, but will continue at $3.50 un-
til just before Christmas vacation.
Payment may be made in install-
ments of $1 down, $1 before Nov.
15 and the final $1.50 by Dec. 15.
The second and final payments are
payable at the offices in the Student
Publications building, Maynard St.,
where the Student Directory is still
on sale.

Catholic Alumni
To Hold Benefit
For St. Mary's.
Will Give Charity Bridge
In Detroit; Special Bus
Rates Arranged
Catholic alumni of the University
living in Detroit will sponsor a bridge
benefit for St. Mary's Student Chapel
on Nov. 24 at the Book-Cadillac Ho-
tel, Detroit, it was announced re-
,cently.
This is the first time the chapel
has gone outside the regular student
congregation for any but personal
donations, and the first time since
Catholic student work was organized
on the campus more than 30 years
ago that alumni groups have banded
together for social or financial work.
Approximately 1,500 tickets have
been sold, it was estimated yesterday
by committee heads. Arrangements
have been made with a bus company
to provide transportation at one
dollar a round trip for students in-
terested, said the Rev. Allen J. Bab-
cock, who is in charge of the work at
the chapel.
Prizes will be provided for each ta-
ble playing, it was stated, and 40
door prize's will be offered.
John P. O'Hara is general chair-
man assisted by the following com-
mittee heads and their aides: Fred
McGraw and Miss Margaret Thomp-
son, former woman's editor of The
Daily, publicity; James (Pat) O'Day
and Miss Margaret Brady, prizes;
John Considine and Mrs. John
O'Hara, arrangements; T h o m a s
John O'Hara, arrangements; Thomas
Donahue and Harry Merrick, tickets;
and Mrs. Edwin L. Miller and Miss
Martha Colburne, patrons and pa-
tronesses. Miss Genevieve Walsh is
acting as treasurer and Miss Ruth
Brady is secretary of the committee
meetings.
Prominent Detroiters, all alumni,
who are sponsoring the affair are:
William E. Clarke, Judge Lester Moll,
Arthur Barkey, Frank Ortman, Rob-
ert Clancy, Dr. Angus Goetz, John C..
Manning, John Wilt, the Misses Ed-
na Mae Jennings, Louise Cady, Mo-
nica O'Brien, and Abigail Noon.
St. Mary's Chapel was built in
1924-25 and dedicated in March of
the latter year, under the direction of
the Rev. Michael P. Bourke. After
Morris Hall was the chapel previously
for a period of six years.

Research Physicist
Says Engineer Will
Cut achine Norse
Engineers building any type of ma-
chine in the past have concerned
themselves principally with speed, ef-
ficiency, strength, and perfection of
the machine. In the future, sound
specifications may be placed on man-
ufacturing contracts for production
engineers, according to scientists.
Knowledge of the nerve strain and
the annoyance resulting from noise
is the reason for the addition of the
new, partly psychological problem to
the engineer's ordinary concern with
standards of strength, chemical com-
position, revolutions per minute, and
other details, declared Dr. Ernest J.
Abbott, research physicist for the
engineering research department.
The concern with unnecessary
sound is not exactly new. During
the past 10 years far sighted manu-
facturers have financed such projects
in the research department to the
extent of $196,640, as "noise insur-
ance" on dozens of machines, from
cream separators to 5,000 horse-pow-
er steam turbine gears. Early re-
search, lackingmeasuring instru-
ments, was difficult, but in recent
years these tools have been developed
and applied successfully to sound
problems, so that now the human
ear, with its faults of judgment, is
replaced by ingenious meters which
register sound as "average" ears -
in terms of decibels, a standard un-
derstood by all engineers.
Iowa Alumni Will Meet
In Detroit Friday Night
Alumni and students of the Uni-
versity of Iowa will assemble Friday
evening, the night before the Michi-
gan-Iowa football game, at the Book-
Cadillac Hotel, Detroit, for a ban-
quet and pep meeting, according to
an announcement received yesterday
by the offices of the Alumni Associa-
tion here.
Although the program for the
meeting has not been completed, it
is probable that the list of speakers
will include Ossie Solem and E. H.
Laurie, '06, head football coach and
director of intercollegiate athletics,
respectively, at Iowa.

Conservation
Plan Outlined
By Matthews
Shows How Cutting Might
Be Done Selectively In
20-Year Cycles
In a talk delivered to foresters and
lumbermen meeting here recently,
Prof. D. M. Mathews of the School
of Forestry and Conservation, showed
how cutting could be selectively done
in large Michigan timber stands, on
20 year cycles, to make an annual
profit and leave a proper growing
stock as well. He also suggested
methods whereby owners of small
stands might secure the same bene-
fits.
The NRA code for the lumber in-
dustry, now under final discussion in
Washington, provides for a system of
tree cutting which will conserve the
productive capacity of forest re-
sources, said Professor Matthews.
Dean S. T. Dana and Prof. Willett
of the forestry school, concurred with
F. Ramsdell' of the forestry school,
concurred with Professor Matthews
in advising the lumberman to secure
from the code authority the privilege
of submitting management plans for
their own properties to be approved
by competent authorities. The only
alternative is the so-called "rule of
thumb" cutting which would ulti-
mately deforest the land.
Professor Matthews' plan provides
that only trees from 14 to 18 inches
in diameter and upwards be cut.
Where timber holdings are too small
to carry the overhead -costs of a per-
manent management plan, as is the
case with many ownership units,
owners may follow one of three plans,
Professor Matthews suggests. They
may sell stumpage or timber rights
on long term contracts to firms pre-
pared to use the cycle system, and
which will return to recut the land
at intervals. They may merge their
lands, funds and equipment to make
an area profitable to handle scien-
tifically, or they may first cut selec-
tively and then sell their land to
larger management units or to the
government.
