The results were published in the Quar- terly number of the Michigan Alum-. nus. In all, nearly 3,300 graduates an- swered the inquiry sent to them. Regarding general employment of graduates in 1934, there were dif- ferent results for the various schools and colleges. The graduates from the forestry school were employed practically one hundred per cent, owing to the demand for foresters in the CCC camps and other gov- ernment forestry activities. Less than nine per cent in the business administration group who answered the inquiry were unem- ployed while five per cent of the law- yers and dentists stated they did not have employment. Sixteen per cent of the engineers, a percentage higher than that for the class of 1933, replied that they were unable to find work. Of those who graduated from the literary college 40 per cent were un- able to find employment while 20 per cent of those who had received teacher's certificates stated they were not at work. The kind of work done by the grad- uates did not always correspond with that for which they had college train- ing. Some of the engineers were do- ing clerical work, work as shop su- perintendents, and some were sales- men. More than 85 per cent of the em- ployed graduates from the business group were employed in business oc- cupations. Many architects, although 70 per cent of those asked were work- ing in fields for which they were trained, were selling, collecting, and in factory-production managing. Ban On Publicity I Of Salaries Asked Of the men who had received doctor's degrees, numbering 101, 64 per cent were teaching, 20 per cent were in scientific work, and seven per cent were in engineering, with the remainder scattered among several occupations. The average earnings of the grad- uates from the literary college, the report shows, had a "median income" of $1,001 to $1,250 for the men of 1932, but a median of $551 to $1,000 for women in 1932, and for the men and women of 1933. Thedentists earned between $1,- 501 and $1,750 while the average an- nual earnings reported by the 39 graduates of the business adminis- tration school was found to be $1,496. The men with doctor's degrees had an income between $2,001 and $2,500 with eight out of the 90 reporting more than $3,500. The forestry group reported one of the greatest incomes with earnings averaging $2,132, more than double the median for those who prepared to teach and also for the graduates of the literary college. Ask Removal Of Van Gundy To State Hospital An effort will be made by Prosecu- tor Albert J. Rapp to have Paul Murphy, 20-year -)ld psychopathic patient at Mercywood Sanitarium, a branch of St. Joseph's Mercy Hos- pital on the Jackson road, committed to a state hospital, it was announcedI yesterday. Murphy is alleged to have attacked and killed his attendant, Carroll Van Gundy, former graduate student here, last Friday night. A case being reviewed in the cir- cuit court has occupied the time of the prosecutor until yesterday and has delayed the investigation the prosecutor intends to make. -If the results of the investigation warrant doing so, the prosecutor will attempt to have the patient committed else- where before he is given formal re- lease by the sanitarium. In the event that relatives object to this action, committment will be made following the release. commercial process of chromium plating, has been developed recently by the department of engv I:ing research of the University under the direction of Dr. Richard Schneide- wind. The new chemical resembles the simple solution used in photographic development, and will result in large reductions in the labor and the gen- eral expense of chromium plating, ac- cording to Dr. Schneidewind. Chromium plating is accomplished by "bathing" the metal in a chemical solution which is charged with elec- tricity. Until the new discovery was made, extra wires had to be used to insure that wthe ,electricity would reach all parts of the metal equally. Dr. Schneidewind's new chemical takes the place of these extra wires, and thus simplifies the whole chrom- ium plating process. It is a well-known fact, Dr. Schneidewind stated, that lightning tends to strike high or pointed ob- jects, and the same thing was thought to be necessarily true of the elec- tricity which enters the solution of chromium plating. When the ob- jects to be plated were of uneven con- tour, special wires were introduced to eliminate this difficulty and pro- duce an even coating of chromium. The chemical developed in the en- gineering research department "pol- arizes" or spreads the electricity so that it can act uniformly on the en- tire surface of the metal. It costs only $2 for a sufficient amount to treat 500 gallons of chromium plat- ing, and one manufacturer has been able through its use to step up the process 35 per cent, even though re- taining the same amount of labor. Fate And Man Fail Happy Sinner, Now Sojourning In Jail John Kieth, 37, of Detroit, is rest- ing in the county gaol today ponder- ing the tricks of fate and man and a charge of petty larceny. Nonchalantly counter shopping in the John Shank clothing store in Chelsea, he is alleged to have quitely pocketed a cap and strolled out with- out the slightest twinge of conscience. From the clothing store to Bird's drug store is only a short distance, and hither he directed his willing feet. The first trophy secured from that establishment was a package of razor blades. Still undiscovered, and may- be a little elated, the happy sinner decided to continue his own version of a share-the-wealth program when his eyes fell upon a watch promi- nently displayed on a card placed on the counter. Perhaps he had never heard of the axiom of "three times and out." Then again he may have acquired an absolute trust in his run of luck by that time. In any event, he had not reckoned on the fact that the watch was wired to the display card, and this proved to be his undoing. While wrestling with the recalci- trant timepiece, Kieth was noticed by the clerk on duty, and was imme- diately apprehended. A call to the local sheriff's office brought deputies to the scene of the crime, and he was taken into the custody of the county law enforcement officers, not however, without the embarrassment of dropping the razor blades at that most inopportune time. Kieth is now waiting arraignment in Judge Jay Payne's justice court. Students Back Nanking Riots Against ,japan University Officials Avert Clash As Students Battle City Police Force NANKING, China, Jan. 8. -(VP) - The smouldering student movement flared into open rioting in China's capital today. ,tudents of the University of Nan- king, a missionary institution in which American control is predomin- ant, attacked and badly mauled a Chinese gendarme whom they caught tearing down posters urging China to resist foreign invasion. Scores of steel helmeted gendar- mes, armed with clubs, immediately rushed to the scene. They surround- ed the university and demanded the surrender of the student body presi- dent. A new clash was averted through mediation of university authorities. They induced the gendarmes to leave empty handed. The situation continues menacing with students throughout the capital restive in the face of Gen. Chiang Kai Shek's apparent determination to suppress any demonstrations with force. Student strikes were launched in several institutions. New Demands Made TIENTSIN, Jan. 8. --(R) --Japan- ese authorities presented a new ser- ies of demands to North China's lead- ers today, darkening the outlook for amicable Sino-Japanese relations in this area. 'Calling attention to an alleged in- sult to the Japanese flag by the troops of Gen. Sung Cheh-Yuan, the Japanese consul-general formally demanded punishment of the cul- prits, indemnity and an apology. Albion School Is Destroyed By Fire ALBION, Jan. 8.-(P)- An early morning fire destroyed the three- story brick school building at the Starr Commonwealth for Boys today, with a loss estimated by school offi- cials at about $40,000. The 90 boys resident at the school were asleep in the dormitories when the fire was discovered, about 4 o'clock, and none of them were en- dangered. Four hours after the fire broke out, apparently from the electric wiring, only the walls of the school building were standing. Thirty older boys helped school officials and Albion city firemen remove the furnishings and portable equipment, but other equipment, including four pianos, was destroyed. Dr. Bessie B. Kanouse, assistant to the director and curator in the Uni- versity Herbarium, recently returned from Albany and New York City where she made a ten-day study of fungi in the herbaria of the New York State Museum at Albany and the New York Botanical Gardens. Most of Dr. Kanouse's time was spent in Albany studying critical material and types of fungi in the group called discomycetes. Dr. Kan- ouse has been making a survey of the discomycetes of Michigan andj during the past three years has pub-' lished many new records for the state from the results of the survey.
