WEEKS I Considered the oldest campus or- ganization in Ann Arbor, the Var- sity Men's Glee Club has had an il- lustrious past and with the aid of radio and electrical transcriptions as well as extensive tours each year is augmenting its already large group of listeners. A trip through the East in addi- tion to a series of broadcasts and the usual local concerts is being planned for this year's club by Prof. David Mattern, conductor. Besides serving as the conductor of the Var- sity Glee Club, which usually num- bers around 100 voices, Professor Mattern indulges a paternal interest in the Freshman Glee Club, which is one of the few activities freshmen ire permitted to take up in their first semester of residence in Ann Arbor. The Freshman Glee Club is also made up of about 100 voices and is managed not unlike the Varsity, hav- ing a student conductor. It meets regularly in the Varsity Glee Club rooms in the Union, according to Pro- fessor Mattern, every Wednesday, 4:30 to 5:30 p.m. and rehearses the of the engineering research depart- ment; J. H. Hunt of the General Motors Corporation; R. A. Hayward, of the Kalamazoo Vegetable Parch- ment Co.; and Alex Dow, president of the Detroit Edison Co. same programs as the Varsity Club. Freshmen are urged to take advan- tage of this opportunity to enter into an activity which will make them eligible for membership in the Var- sity Club at the beginning of the second semester, Professor Mattern said. Tryouts for the Freshman Glee Club will be held Oct. 30, according to Professor Mattern, and the first regular rehearsal, followed by compe- tition for old and new members for this year's club, will be held at 7:30 p.m., Oct. 1 in the Glee Club rooms in the Union. troops Massed In Final Drive Against Madrid 80 Of 1,200 Defenders Of Fort Alcazar Killed During Seige (Continued from Page 1) that now "Spain would quickly be freed." The main body of Gen. Franco's troops was pouring into Toledo to- night and it was planned to complete Fascist occupation of the city before morning. Harried government militiamen fled in all directions-those who took the road to Madrid methodically blocked off by Fascist detachments stationed along the road. While Fascist elements in Toledo's populace danced in the streets which a few hours before had been the scenes of death and destruction, the Fascist leaders in conferences laid their plans for a concerted Madrid assault. The strategy '°was to draw the picked legions of Gen. Franco tightly aroupd the southwestern approaches to Madrid, while Gen. Emilio Mola, the conqueror of Irun and San Se- bastian, put on pressure from the north. Fascist leaders tonight only smiled deprecatingly when asked what re- sistance they expected the govern- ment would be able to hurl against their Madrid advance. With raised palms they pointed out that their disciplined fighting men had swept through the streets of Toledo Sunday night just one half an hour after they had been given the command to advance. In disarray the motley government militiamen broke and fled before the precision of the insurgent attack. Some of the erstwhile defenders ran back across the Tagus river, to the south, while others fled toward the Fascist units waiting with rifles along the Madrid highway. Civilian residents fled with the government militiamen, scattering over fields and country lanes, leav- ing their household belongings be- hind. .

The Foundation is one of the 32 chapters sponsored by the B'nai B'rith on the campuses of American universities. The religious aspects of the Foun- dation will be conducted by Dr. Ber- nard Heller, Hillel director, while so- cial events, athletics, dramatics, de- bating, and the bringing of noted speakers to the campus will be taken care of by the student council led; by S. Leonard Kasle, '38. Beginning this year the Hillel will confer the title of Ben Torah or Bas Torah upon those students who, have fulfilled the requirement of a specified number of courses of study lectures and seminars, and have par- ticipated in a designated number of religious, cultural and social projects of the Foundation. The award will be made by the Educational Council of the Foundation consisting of the director, a committee of faculty ad- visors and a student representative. This year lectures will be given by eminent speakers, social workers and jurists, Kasle announced. A series of open forums led by University pro- fessors will be held on the Sunday evenings not given over to debating, dramatic or social programs. In order to aid the student in se- lecting a life's occupation, a commit- tee of professors from various fields has been appointed to discuss with students seeking guidance their indi- vidual aptitudes for certain work. The dramatics organization, the Hillel Players, which has produced many plays in past years including "The Dybuk," and "The Unfinished Picture," is organizing its staff of actors, actresses, directors, techni- cians, cosmeticians and costume de- signers, for the coming year.

S. Forester F. H. Brundage, Portland, by burning of slashings-debris left from timber operations. Among the sections menaced were some of the greatest timber treasures in the world-the irreplacable red- woods of northern California, which were old when Christ was born. For- esters pointed out, however, that these huge trees do not burn readily and the fires still were some distance from any redwood groves. The central Oregon coastal region about Yachats, where auto camps and several other buildings were de- stroyed, and the northern California region looked anxiously at weather reports but it was this seacoast sec- tion which faced all the perils of for- est fires, traveling seven or eight miles an hour. In Bandon between 350 and 400 buildings lay in ruins, skeletons of partially collapsed walls sticking grotesquely above the mass of black- ened brick, wood and steel. Through the debris, CCC enrollees and Federal and state officials picked their way, looking for bodies. Capt. Lee Bowen of the state police, said nine had been recovered and that six more probably lay beneath the ruins. All that was left of the town was a bakery, three mills, a lumber yard, about 20 houses and the high school.
