Chen, director of phar- macological research, Lilly Research Laboratories in Indianapolis, willr speak on "Ephedrine" on Monday, March 26 at 4:15 p.m. in the Chem- istry Amphitheatre. Ephedrine is the active principle of Ma Huang, one of the medicinal herbs of the old Chinese pharmacQ- peia. Ma Huang was tasted by the Emperor Shen Nung, father of Chi- nese agriculture, some 5100 years ago and he placed it in the list of recom- mended drugs. The introduction of this old Chinese drug into western medicine was largely due to the studies of Dr. Chen in 1924. Since the introduction of ephedrine into medicine, it has been extensively used because of its pharmacological prop- erties, many of which resemble those of epinephrine of the adrenal glands. Dr. Chen's lecture will be illus- trated by slides and should be of in- terest to the general public. Measures For Control Of World Wheat Suggested LONDON, March 23.-(P)-Dras- tic measures for the quantitative control of world wheat movement and a minimum price barrier were drawn up by a commission of experts to- day for submission to the interna- tional wheat conference in Rome starting April 6. The coupling of these projects in an effort to raise and stabilize wheat prices would cause an even more com- plete transformation of conditions in world grain markets than was vis- ualized when delegates first began to explore gingerly the controversial price proposal last November. Committee Chosen To Select Scholars A committee of five has been nom- inated to select the winners of the Michigan Alumni Undergraduate Scholarships of the University of Michigan Club of Ann Arbor, accord- ing to an announcement issued by T.

Keeler of the School of Education, Charles W. Henderson, Mrs. Theophile Klingman and Miss Gladys Caldwell.

Ramsdell, professor of forestry land management was in Lansing yesterday consulting with L. R. Schoenmann, who is in charge of Michigan's emergency conservation work under which the thirty-seven C.C.C. camps of the state are operat- in. Professor Ramsdell was active in the origination of the C.C.C. a year ago and has spent a great deal of time with the organization since its beginning. Dean Cooley To Receive Visit From Sailor Son Capt. Hollis M. Cooley, after an absence of several years, is expected here Monday on a short visit with his father, Dean Emeritus Mortimer E. Cooley. Captain Cooley, who left the Uni- versity to begin training at the Unit- ed States Naval Academy, has been transferred from the Naval base at Washington, D. C., at which he has been stationed for several years; to the Bremerton Navy Yards, near Se- attle, Wash. The University laboratories have developed, for the first time, a meth- od of determining, quantitatively, the degree of the wetting of a solid by a liquid, Prof. Floyd E. Bartell of the physical chemistry department, said yesterday, in an interview. Professor Barthell pointed out that infinite possibilities are laid open be- cause of this discovery. Now the degree of adhesion can be calculated quantitatively, and due to this, the lacquer, varnish, and safety glass industries, along wth many others, will be greatly benefited. Professor Barthell added that this will even have a bearing on physiolo- gy and medicine, since the depth that disinfectants may penetrate can be determined. The effect has already been far- reaching, but still greater results are expected, he concluded. 8:00 p.m. the men and boys choir will present the cantata, "Victory Di- vine" by Christopher Marks. Lutheran Student Club: Regular meeting 5:30 p.m. Sunday at Zion Lutheran Parish1 Hall, E. Washington St. at S. Fifth Ave. The program will be a student discussion led by Olga Loppenthein and Christian Haas on the subject "What is Jesus' Character?" Young Peoples Society, Church of Christ (Disciples): Supper at 6:00, followed by a discussion on "Persian Religion" at 6:30. Miss Marie Savage will read a paper on "Zoroaster" and will lead the discussion. Kansas Nobletan Is Revealed As A Bad Check Passer LAWRENCE, Kansas, March 23- Further developments in the case of "Count Paul Gregory Herschel von Leibnitz" who has been fooling the campus at the University of Kansas for the past two weeks, kept the story before the public for another day or two. "Leibnitz," who had secured a vaudeville contract here, slipped up in his story, and after confessing to be an Austrian Jew and no Ger- man, but just plain. Henry G. Leiby, he left by the fire-escape. Just when the affair was believed closed, Lawrence authorities received information from Ventura County, Calif., that Leiby was an old hand at that particular form of confidence game, and had been imprisoned on bad check and theft charges. Scientists Are Center Of New Picture Exhibit Display Is Sponsored By Honorary Society And Professor Soule A series of pictures of famous sci- entists and short sketches of their lives are being exhibited in the libra- ry, in some of the classrooms, and in the first floor showcase, of the chemistry building, by Phi Lambda Upsilon, the national honorary chem- ical society. These pictures are selected from the private collection of Prof. B. A. Soule-of the analytical chemistry de- partment. The lives are written up by the members, with the co-opera- tion of Professor Soule. One of the exhibits is placed in the first floor showcase to remain for about two weeks. The pictures of Cavendish and Bunsen have already been shown, and Gay-Lussac's is now on exhibition. However, it will soon be replaced by that of Charles James, who is famous for his work with rare earths. His habit of "serving tea at midnight to his co-workers" and his dephiums (larkspurs) have also helped toward making him re- nowned. He taught at the University of New Hampshire, and did his most notable research work there. Ultimately, all the pictures will be placed in the showcase, but this will not be possible during the present semester., MISSISSIPPI UNDER CONTROL NEW ORLEANS, March 23-)- Brig. Gen. Harley B.

Studewts To Study Federal Procedure LAWRENCE, Kans., March 23.- Plans for giving worthy college stu- dents an opportunity to secure a working understanding of the gov- ernment at Washington under the auspices of the National Student Fed- eration of America were recently given the approval of the Men's Stu- dent Council at the University of Kansas. Under a program worked out by Assistant Secretary of Commerce Chester H. McCall, government ap- propriations would provide opportu- nities for 200 students chosen in 1935 to spend the summer months in Washington studying the workings of the federal government. The plan as outlined for lectures by leaders of governmental departments, accom- panied by observations of actual working sessions of the various groups. It is the belief of the Na- tional Student Federation that this project will aid greatly in raising the general standard of government. CLASSIFIED DIRECTORY CLASSIFIED ADVERTISING Phone 2-1214.
