Norris Dam, Nearing Completion, Creates New Problem.

-Associated Press Photo.
Rapidly swinging into its final stage of construction, TVA's Norris Dam on the Clinch River in Ten-
nessee soon will release from their jobs the thousands of men who have been building it. The conversion of
those men and their families into a self-supporting community at Norris is the next step.

TVA Town At Norris Dam Must
Turn To Other Forms Of Work

Thousands Of Men Facing
Necessity Of Creating
Permanent Employment
WASHINGTON, Jan. 11. - (AP) -
As work on Norris Dam nears com-
pletion, a new problem arises for the
men who have labored on the project.
Will they be able, by other forms
of labor, to maintain a self-support-
ing community?
In one way this second phase is
more important as a test of the "new
deal" than the first. The dam prom-
ises navigation, flood control, cheap
electric power and the return of
eroded Tennessee hills and valleys to
usefulness.
This second part of the program
will test the American resourceful-
ness which first settled the hills a
century ago. It will test whether,
within the existing system, stranded
populations can bring themselves
back to 'the more abundant life"
which President Roosevelt has set as
a goal.,
Town Was Built Sturdily
TVA directors have been constant-
ly conscious of that fact. When the
dam started, the workers were started
on training courses to prepare them
for the future.
The town of Norris at the con-
struction site was built sturdily. It
is no ram-shackle collection of con-
struction shacks meant to turn into
a ghost town.
. The man power and woman power
of the town was hand-picked through
civil service examinations.
The surrounding valley still holds
much of the riches stored there be-
fore Columbus crossed the Atlantic.
The blessings to be added up are:
rich natural resources, water power,
cheap electricity, a substantial town
and a picked population. The work
of adding them together has started.
The desired sum is a higher living
level in the valley.
The town of Norris, with its 1,500
will speak informally on "An Account
of the Recent Trial Involving the
Alleged Heir of Sir Francis Drake."
Dames Bridge Group: There will
be a meeting of the Dames Bridge
Group at 8 o'clock Tuesday night at
the Michigan League. Call Mrs. Don-
ald Church for reservations. All
those who have signed up to play are
expected to play .unless they notify
Mrs. Church by Tuesday that they
cannot attend.

inhabitants lies four miles away from
the dam. It has 350 houses, all elec-
trically equipped, one-third of them
with electric heat. There is a com-
munity drugstore, gas station, grocery
and a demonstration dairy and poul-
try farm. Nearby are two public
parks, one of 3,800 acres and one of
3,000 acres. Between them, a com-
munity forest.
The surrounding valley contains
57 kinds of useful minerals. The
supply is so great and varied that the
region may be the richest mineral'
deposit in the country, mining ex-
perts report. It includes fuels, heavy
and light metals from iron to beryl-
lium, cement materials, fertilizers,
chemicals such as salt and lime, abra-
sives such as emery, and insulators
such as asbestos..
Hand Weaving Shop Started
Can the bread-winners turn these
advantages into better living condi-
tions? They have started. Several
naturally will remain on the main-
tenance crews at the dam and the
power house.
Several already are working in a
hand weaving shop started with a
loan of $1,200 from the Tennessee
Valley workers' council. The loan is
repaid and the shop is supporting
seven families, six of which had been
on relief.
The nearby forest and forest parks
are keeping many of the men busy in
clearing and maintenance under di-
rection of TVA and the national park
service.
Many more are working in a ce-
ramics laboratory which the ceram-,
oric industry is watching with inter-
est. They are trying to evolve some,
way of using electric power to fire
porcelain.
Tourists are proving a source of
revenue. Between October 15 and
November 15 of this year 35,000 per-
sons visited Norris. That means jobs
for shop-keepers.

Three Forests
Of U. Of M. Are
Self-Supporting
Self-supporting as well as instruct-
ing, the three forests possessed by
the University are now providing some
of Ann Arbor's citizens with wood for
the winter's fuel. Cutting of wood
for sale is, however, only an incidental
part of caring for these forests and
is necessary in order to carry out the
experimental program, Prof. L. J.
Young, of the forestry department,
said.
Eber White Woods, the Saginaw
Forest and Stinchfield Woods, all
within a short distance of Ann Ar-
bor, have been scientificially cared
for by the forestry students under
the direction of the faculty, Professorf
Young declared. Besides reforesta-
tion work, the students have thinned
the trees, removed fire hazards, and
are now conducting investigations
in these woods. Classes use them also
as a class room containing nature's
most interesting arboreal exhibits.
Sale of the wood, which is suitable
only for burning, aids in maintaining
the forests, although it does not to-
tally cover the cost of experimental
work, Professor Young added. The
saw timber, however, is used by the
School of Forestry and Conservation
itself, which supervises the woods, and
is not for sale.
The timber cutting has been
planned, Professor Young explained,
so that at present as many cubic feet
of wood are lumbered every year as
are grown in the forests. At first,
the cutting must be limited, until the
number and size of the trees has
reached the number which results
in the most growth of good trees per
year. When this optimum point is
reached, the rate of cutting and the
rate of growth are equalized, he ex-
plained.
The trees in these forests, Professor
Young stated, are mainly hard woods.
Among the most commonly planted{
species are the pines.

New Division Of Health
Sciences Is Organized By
University
Several important administrative
changes in regard to the Michigan
League and the Medical School were
made during the school year ending
June 30, 1935, according to the an-
nual report submitted to the Board
of Regents by President Alexander
G. Ruthven.
The most important change of the
year was in matters concerning the
Medical School. In January, 1935,
a series of resolutions was adopted
organizing a Division of the Health
Sciences and providing for the ad-
ministration of the Medical School.
"Under these resolutions," the re-
port states, "the Division of the
Health Sciences was organized and
will consist of the Medical School,
the School of Dentistry, the Division
of Hygient and Public Health, the
University Hospital School of Nurs-
ing and subsidiary services, the Col-
lege of Pharmacy, and Postgraduate
Education."
Committee To Be In Control
The administration of the new Di-
ivsion will be controlled by a com-
mittee consisting of the heads of the
several units and the Director of the
Hospital, and Dr. James D. Bruce was
made chairman of the division.
Another resolution passed by the
Board during January provided that
the functions of the Medical School
be under the control of the Dean,
assisted by an executive committee
the duty of which will be to deter-
mine "educational and instructional
policies" and to control matters of
budget, promotions, and appoint-
ments.
Prof. Albert C. Furstenberg, head of
the department of Otolaryngology
was made Dean of the Medical School
to replace Dean Frederick G. Novy,
who retired at the close of the first
semester.
League Funds Are Affected
A change in the administrative
management of the funds of the
Michigan League was placed in the
hands of the organization which has
charge of the University dormitories.
The Institute of Health and Social
Sciences was also established by the
Regents as a part of the Graduate
School. The Regents "provided for
the establishment of the Institute
with the purpose of coordinating the
work of the University in these fields
in Detroit and cooperating more ad-
vantageously with educational and
research agencies in the metropolitan
area," the report states.
Prof. Henry C. Anderson, director
of student-alumni relations, recom-
mend that President Ruthven appoint
a board to provide more adequate
foresight over socio-religious activ-
ities. The Board of Coordination and
Financial Control of Students' Socio-
Religious Projects was set up. The
activities affected by this measure
are the Fresh Air Camp, Treatment
Planning Committee, Student Chris-
tian Association, Freshman Redez-
Ivous, and contacts with the state
Y.M.C.A. and state Y.W.C.A.

Harvard Anthropologist
Plans Research Here
Byron O. Hughes, research fellow in
the division of anthropology of Har-
vard University and an expert phys-
ical anthropologist, arrived in Ann
Arbor this week to arrange and class-
ify skeletal material of Michigan In-
dians assembled by the University's
field expedition at Lapeer county dur-
ing the last two years.
Mr. Hughes' work will be to de-
termine the relationship of tha In-
dians of Michigan with reference to
other American Indians. More than
150 skeletons, men, women and chil-
dren, were uncovered by the Univer-
sity expedition, and will be exam-
ined by Mr. Hughes.
Mr. Hughes is a former instructor
in the department of anthropology
here. '
