THE MICHIGAN DAILY THURSDAY, SEPT. 28, 1933 THURSDAY, SEPT. 28, 1933 Describes Kidnaping 400 Students Seek Jobs At Dean's Office More than 400 students have ap- plied for jobs through the employ- ment office whichismaintained in the office of the dean of students, according to Elizabeth A. Smith, who is in charge of the service. Most o4 the positions which these men get, said Miss Smith, are tem- porary for the duration of the rush- ing season. From 30 to 40 more tem- porary positions have been available this year than there were last year, she declared. "Although, the employment busi- ness is crowded with would-be work- ers whom we cannot place, Miss Smith said, there is one field in which we could use many more peo- ple. This is the job of barber, for which we have about fixe or six openings." COLLEGIATE OBSERVER A questionnaire sent out to Bowl- ing Green College men as to what were the desirable qualities in a woman brought out the following results: She must have intelligence, affability, courtesy, a sense of humor, good taste in dressing, ability to cook, modesty, moderate liking for recre- ation, courage, and temperance in everything. Just another of life's im- probabilities. During a laboratory lecture at the University of Oklahoma, the profes- sor saw two students communicating in sign language. He immediately signaled by the same method, "Don't do that any more." They didn't. SO THEY SAY "Boron atoms and neutrons result when alpha ray particles strike, lith- ium atoms." -Waterbury College News Yes, and what are you doing about it? Yes, I mean you! Just letting it happen? Or do you have the man- hood, the social consciousness, the Americanism, to make a protest? "All the ugly girls go to college." -James Montgomery Flagg According to co-eds he should be nominated for a degree of B.S. (Bad Sight -not Bachelor of Science). Forecast for Cambridge and vici- nity: Equinoctial Zephyrs. -Harvard Crimson O yes, we have fall breezes in Ann Arbor too. The students at Rhode Island Col- lege were asked what living figure they admired most. The co-eds said Mahatma Gandhi, while the male sex said Jean Harlow. An item in a lost and found col- Donor Of Library Arranges Special Historical Exhibit An exhibit of letters, portraits, manuscripts, and documents of Brit- ish statesmen who had an influence on American affairs from the time of George II to' Queen Victoria is now on display in the William Clements Library. The exhibition was personally ar- ranged early in the summer by Mr. Clements, donor of the library, the material being entirely from his pri- vate collections at his home in Bay City. Special emphasis is given in the exhibit to William Pitt, Earl of Cha- tham, George Canning, and Lord Palmerston, because of their impor- tanceyin the shaping of American history. Other items of interest are manu- scripts of the different kings and the signature of Victoria. Nearly 50 statesmen are represented ,including such persons as Sir Robert Walpole, Edmund Burke, Arthur Wellesley, and Benjamin Disraeli. umn of a college newspaper reads: "If the person who stole the 'alcohol from the laboratory will kindly re- turn the cat's intestines, no ques- tions will be asked." Imagine how some student felt? The Notre Dame football squad lives up to its reputation of being ex- tremely cosmopolitan. On the fresh- man squad there is a student named William Shakespeare and one named Al Smith. It's not the women who pay at the University of Vermont. The gas com- pany there complains that it hasn't made a nickel on any of the sorority houses in years because of dishonest meter-readers. Work On Hutchins Hall Largest Summer Job Of B. And G. Staff One of the largest contracts that the Buildings and Grounds depart- ment has ever undertaken was com- pleted with the opening of Hutchins Hall, the last of the buildings in the Law Quadrangle, accordi tgno Law Quadrangle, according to E. C.. Pardon, Superintendent of Buildings and grounds. The department's staff finished the plumbing and heating work, the elec- trical work and all the sheet metal contracts. All of this amounted to approximately one-quarter of a mil- lion dollars worth of work. The in- terior painting and the landscaping of thebsurrounding grounds were also done by the department. Another contract which kept the department busy was the changing of several departments of the Uni- versity over to Haven Hall. Besides these larger pieces of work, the department hired 30 extra paint- ers during the summer months, Mr. Pardon said. There were also a number of smaller jobs on the cam- pus such as minor roof repairs, re- placing pipes in the Chemistry build- ing which have been eaten away by acids and doing routine work on the lawns and shrubbery of the campus. A low-pressure steam line was pro- vided for the new law group this summer. Mr. Pardon described this as- an important piece of work be- cause it would give the group a bet- ter balanced heating sysetm. Several houses that were taken back by the University on account of mortgages had to be redecorated and the department did this work. Several women's residences were also painted, decorated, and repaired during the summer. CONVICTED OF LARCENY Convicted of larceny, Joseph A. Policht yesterday was sentenced by Judge George W. Sample to serve from two to four years in Jackson prison. Policht was traced down -and cap- tured by Deputy Atkinson and George Randel after he had robbed the residence of A. G. Clark, Chelsea produce dealer. While the wicked flee when no man pursueth, they make much bet- ter time if some one is after them. -Dr. Parkhurst. S.
