Rachmaninoff
To Appear In
Concert Series
Distinguished Composer
Will Be First Of Two
Outstanding Pianists
Announcement of the program
which Sergei Rachmaninoff, dis-
tinguished Russian piano virtuoso,
will present next Wednesday in the
second concert of the Choral Union
series, was made yesterday by Pres-
ident Charles A. Sink of the School
of Music.
The program is as follows: 32 Vari-
ations C minor, Beethoven; Three
Sonatas, Scarlatti; Sonata, B minor,
Chopin; Poeme, and Etude, Sriabin;
Fairy Tale, Medtner; Scherzo, Boro-
din; Barcarolle, Rlbenstein; Etude,
and Prelude, Rachmaninoff; and
Etude - Caprice, Dohnanyi.
Rachmaninoff is the first of two
pianists of international fame who
have been secured for the 1935-36
Choral Union series, a concert by
Myra Hess being scheduled for later
in the series. Rachmaninoff first
achieved prominence when he played
a number of his own symphonies with
the Philharmonic Society in London.
Since that time he has been one of
the leading figures in musical circles
and his fame is world-wide.
His first opera is called "Aleko,"
and since its premier he has com-
posed many other notable pieces of
mu~sic, best-known of 'which is his
"C-sharp Minor Prelude." His ap-
pearance here is expected to be a
repetition of his many previous con-
certs in which he received unlimited
acclaim.
Individual tickets for this concert,
as well as season tickets for the re-
mainder of the series, are on sale at
the offices of the School of Music and
President Sink stated that there are
still good seats available in all sec-
tions of the auditorium. The concert
will begin at the usual time of 8:15
pim. and the regulations concerning
seatinig will be the same as those that
have been in effect for many years.
P esident Will
Spend Election
Week At Home
WASHINGTON, Oct. 30. - (P) -
President Roosevelt will head for
Hyde Park tonight to remain until
after next week's New York state elec-
tions.
The President has always gone
home to vote, but this year he ar-
ranged to leave earlier than usual
because workmen are still busy re-
pairing the White House. Thus far,
the renovators who began work weeks
ago have completed only three rooms.
Since his return from his cross-
country train trip and ocean vaca-
tion cruise last week, Mr. Roosevelt
has devoted himself mainly to the
foreign situation and to the adminis-
tration's drive to take 3,500,000 off re-
lief rolls and give them jobs.
While at Hyde Park the President
will maintain his contact with these
and other problems through a secre-
tarial staff located in nearby Pough-
keepsie, N. Y. The secretaries will
be in direct communication with the
White House.
He is expected to remain there un-
til the middle of the next week. The
election is on Tuesday.
Soon after he returns to Washing-
ton Mr. Roosevelt will prepare for his
annual Thanksgiving visit to Warm
Springs, Ga. A highlight of the visit
will be a "homecoming celebration"
arranged in his honor by the Georgia
congressional delegation. This has
been fixed for Nov. 29 at Atlanta,
home of Gov. Talmadge, a New Deal
critic. Mr. Roosevelt plans to make
an address.
Fall Dance Planned
By Rendezvous Club
The Rendezvous Club met at 8 p.m.
last night in Lane Hall for the pur-
pose of planning the activities of the
club in the near future.
Plans weremade forea dance, the
"Pumpkin Prom," to be held Nov.
29 at Lane Hall, with Charles
Zwich's Rendez-Vous Orchestra fur-
nishing the music. A week from
Sunday, the club wil hold a weenie
roast on the island.
It was also announced that a series
of dinners will be held in the future
which will be attended by a group of
faculty guests.
Italian Engineering Feats Amaze Militarists

Advancing into a country known for its roughness and lack of roads,
Italian engineers have amazed military circles by rapid completion of
roads necessary for support of the invading army into Ethiopia. Work-
ers are shown here as they labored to finish a roadway to Aduwa as the
army moved on before them.
University Research Doctors
Seek Lasting Cure For Anemia
Having discovered how to alleviate
the sufferings of patients with per-
nicious anemia to a large degree, the
Thomas Henry Simpson Memorial
Institute, which is located near the
University Hospital, is at present
searching for a permanent cure for
that disease.
Pernicious anemia, as described by
members of the Institute, is a defi-
ciency in the body of a recently rec-
ognized enzyme, which on reacting
with the food, generates a substance
that causes the immature cells in
the bone marrow to "ripen" and be-
come adult red blood corpuscles.
At present it is possible to give
medicines that will replace the miss-
ing enzyme or its products and thus
cause the anemia to disappear. This,
however, does not remove the cause
of the disease.
One of the earliest methods of ac-
complishing this result was to have
the patient eat about half a pound
of liver every day for the remainder
of his life, which, through present
medical knowledge, can be indefi-
nitely prolonged.
Develop Extract
Some years ago the Institute de-
veloped a hog's stomach extract
which brings about similar results,
and finally, a few years ago, the In-
stitute announced that it had per-
fected a system by which the liver
extract could be injected into the
body through the veins. This extract
is very powerful, and need be injected
into the sufferer only twelve times or
less a year. Thus, the sufferer need
not eat liver every day, alleviating
a real hardship for those who de-
test it.
Frosh Women
Favor Deferred
Rushing Rules
(Continued from Page.,1)
you feel that four dates with a sor-
ority enabled you to know the mem-
bers well enough so that you could
definitely know whether or not you
want to pledge that group?", the
freshmen were almost evenly divided.
Eighty-two answered affirmatively,
while 65 said that they did not feel
four dates were enough. However,
68 of the sorority women questioned,
almost two-thirds of the group, felt
that they could know the sororities
well enough, while only 19, or one-
third of the unaffiliated women, an-
swered, "Yes."
The sorority pledges answered
"Yes," almost unanimously to the
question, "Are you sure, as far as
you know now, that you will not re-
gret your choice?" The one woman
who said that she was not sure voted
in favor of deferred rushing.
Five main answers were given by
the independent women whenasked
why they did not pledge. Twenty
women responded that they did not
know the sorority well enough, while
16 did not pledge because of finan-
cial reasons. The rest of the group
replied either that they had not been
bid by the sorority which they want-
ed, that they could not decide be-
tween two or more sororities, or that
they were not interested in pledging.
At present the Institute is workingI
on a series of problems which have
arisen in the course of their inves-
tigation. First of all, it is endeavor=-
ing to gain information as to how
blood is made, what effects the pro-
cess, what enzymes influence its
manufacture, anc all other facts
which deal with blood. F
The Institute is also endeavoring
to develop the process of alleviating
pernicious anemia; the researchers
are attempting, for instance, to iso-
late and determine the chemical
composition of the substance which
is present in this liver extract which
brings about the beneficial results,
and find out why it does bring about1
those results.
Aim To Cure Anemia
To actually cure pernicious anemia
is the third aim of the Institute, for
alleviation is not cure, as the mem-
bers of the Institute point out. Re-
search doctors have hoped to dis-
cover the disease in animals so that
they could study the effects of new
medicines. Present experiments may
lead to the production of a some-
what similar condition in monkeys
and white rats. If this hope be-
comes reality, a great advance may be
made in the study of the disease, as
experiments cannot be made on hu-
man beings who have this condition.
Among the miscellaneous problems
for which the Institute is seeking
a solution is the devising of various
tests and methods whereby the pres-
ence of pernicious anemia may be
easily recognized and the progress of
the disease checked before irrepar-
able damage is done.
Building Opposite Observatory
The building in which the Insti-
tute is housed, situated near the Uni-
versity Hospitai, directly opposite the
Observatory, has six floors. The first
is made up of offices, the second of
laboratories, and the third of rooms
for patients. There isna place for
animals, a lecture room, a photo-
graphy room and rooms for inter-
views.
Few bed patients can be studied at
one time, but additional patients can
live at the University Hospital, with
which the Institute cooperates.
The Institute was established in
1927 by Mrs. Thomas Henry Simpson
in honor of her husband, with the
understanding that its activities be
devoted primarily to the study of per-
nicious anemia. Its staff includes
Dr. Cyrus C. Sturgis, director, Dr.
Raphael Isaacs, assistant director,
Dr. Frank Bethell, and Dr. S. Mil-
ton Goldhamer. The technical staff
includes Miss Agnes Fritzell, Miss
Jean Kyer, Miss Christine Steen,
Miss W. M. Barrows and Mr. Fred
Weifenbach.
Prof. Eardley
Talks On Radio
About Alaska
Climate And Topography
Of Yukon Is Described
By Geologist
Choosing "Alaska" as his subject,
Prof. Armand J. Eardley of the Ge-
ology department, gave another talk
in the regular Geology and Travel
series at 2:00 o'clock yesterday af-
ternoon from Morris Hall over WJR.
In opening his radio talk, Professor
Eardley first explained of the climate,
mountains, valleys, and vegetation
of the Yukon country. "The interior
region of Alaska is almost a desert -
at least in terms of precipitation.
Only fifteen inches of water falls
every year. But the Yukon country
does not look like our arid West for
it is heavily covered with a dense
growth of vegetation and seems any-
thing but dry in spite of the low pre-
cipitation," he went on to say.
Winters Are Long
"The winters are long. The river
freezes over about the first of No-
vember. This is the "freeze-up."
Sometime in May the river ice breaks
up in great cakes that float down and
away and the winter is over. This
break-up occurs suddenly and with
a great roar. Ice blocks are piled
high on the banks in many places and
often jam in the river channel at a
constricted point. This backs the
water up as a great dam would," he
explained.
He continued: "June, July, August,
and September are ideal summer
months, the temperature never rising
above 85 and seldom dropping at
night to the freezing point. Frosts are
recorded for every month of the
summer in the weather reports but I
waited until the last of August dur-
ing this past summer for the first
one."
Few Inhabitants
"The white inhabitants of the lower
Yukon are few in number. After our
three months work on the river . .
we had met every white man and
woman, and what is more, could re-
member their names. I have this
note in my diary: 'I have seen the
following white women since leaving
Nenana: an Episcopal deaconess at
Tanana, a Catholic nun at Nulato,
road-house keepers' wives at Hot
Springs and Ruby. Here is a stretch
of 500 miles - one white woman per
hundred miles,'" Professor Eardley
pointed out.
His talk was concluded with a
praise of Alaska saying that it was
a land of rare beauty and a paradise
for the outdoor man, the student of
nature, or the geologist.
BISHOP LEAVES
Dr. William W. Bishop, University
librarian, left last night for New
York City where he will attend the
convention of the Institute of Inter-
national Education to be held tonight.
High temperatures which pre-
vailed on the earth ages ago have
been duplicated in the Geophysical
Laboratories in Washington.'
