Probe Of Disaster
Begun By Eckener
NEW YORK, May 13.-(P)-A six-
member German commission headed
by Dr. Hugo Eckener, grizzed lighter-
than-air wizard, began tonight two
hours before landing in New York an
inquiry into the disaster which rob-
bed Germany of her greatest airship,
the Hindenburg.
American investigators joined the
German commission in a stateroom
aboard the steamship Europa, and for
an hour after the liner reached its
pier the conference continued.
Then, in a procession of motor cars,
the German and Anmerican officials'
started for Lakehurst, N.J., in ac-'
cordance with Dr. Eckener's wish to
go immediately to the field where the,
Hindenburg exploded and burned last
Thursday, killing 36 of its passen-
gers and crew.

formation from Dorr H. Martin, sup-

The seats in the auditorium will
have spring seats and spring backs,
which will not hinder students from
indulging in the allegedly tradition-
al habit of sleeping during lectures,
and rows will be 39 inches apart in
order that those departing will notf

Has Carborundnum Finish
The entire exterior of the building
will be of Doyle darkhollowed Indiana
Limestone. The limestone, Mr. Mar-1
[tin stated, will have a carborundumI
finish, which will give it a marble-
like surface and will not absorb dirt.
Because of the expense involved, only
two other buildings in the United
Statesthave carborundum-finished
limestone, and Mr. Martin believes
that the new graduate school will be
[the first building entirely finished
with this treatment.
The carpeting which will be used
throughout the building will be of
specially woven design, and there will
be a built-in vacuum cleaning system
to clean the carpets, according to Mr.
Martin. Heating will be by concealed
radiation, and ventilation will be
"forced" by means of fails. Lights in
one of the rooms on the second floor,
he continued, will be suspended on
winches so that they can be lowered.
or raised as desired. Some rooms
will be panelled with wood and oth-
ers with plaster. Practically all ceil-
ings will be embellished with pre-
cast and run plaster work.
Window Frames Bronzed
Mr. Martin pointed out that all
window and door frames will be of
bronze,and the floor surfaces of the
first and second floors, which will be
used as terraces, will be of full-ranged
color flagstone. The main roof will
be of copper, finished with patina.
Patina is a green film formed on cop-
per by oxidation which is much
esteemed in art, the usual method of
obtaining it being to allow the copper
to weather for 10 or 15 years, but the
copper roof of the graduate school,
according to the superintendent, will
be treated with acid to give it the de-
sired quality immediately.
There will be two north entrances
and a main entrance from the south,
Mr. Martin stated, all of granite ex-
cept for the flagstone between steps.
This stone and granite will all be em-
bellishedby hand. The structure of
the building is a combination of con-
crete and steel forms, with concrete
floors and roof. The finish of each
of the rooms, Mr. Martin concluded,
will be a little more ornate than that
of the average college building.

Mediation Steps
Begun As Steel
Strik~e Is Calledt
(By Associated Press)
Mediation efforts were begun
quickly yesterday as a long threat-
ened steel strike and new trouble in
the automobile industry ended a brief'
period of comparative freedom from
industrial disputes.
Gov. Frank Earle of Pennsylvania
flew to Pittsburgh to join conferences
already begun in the striking which
closed Jones & Laughlin Steel Corp.
plants. at Aliquippa, Pa., and Pitts-
burgh, leaving about 27,000 employes
idle.
Only a few minor clashes marred
the first day of the walkout.
While the Jones & Laughlin dispute
was being mediated, leaders of the
steel workers union asserted they-
were preparing for action against
other large independents in the field,

Student Needs
The need for adequate help to for-
eign students who find themselves un-
fitted for their academic work be-
cause of lack of facility in the use of
English was stressed by Prof. J. Ra-
leigh Nelson, counselor to foreign
students, in his report for the year
1936-37.
Professor Nelson points out that
foreign students in their first se-
mester in this country are greatly
handicapped by this poor knowledge
of English. To remedy . it he sug-
gests first, systematic testing for
achievement in English before the
academic programs are planned;
second, limiting the elections of stu-
dents in the first semester; and third,
a course in English expertly planned
and taught by the English and speech
departments.
A three-fold increase over last
year in the volume of work done by
the counselor's office in spite of the
fact that the number of foreign stu-
dents has increased only from 288 to
307 is reported by Professor Nelson.
This is due to the fact that the stu-
dents are realizing that the office can
help them in their adjustment to life
in this country, actording to the re-
port.
The various national groups are
drawing together after a period of in-
tense nationalism, Professor Nelson
states. They are again coming to an
appreciation of the possible benefits
of an international club and it is
probable that some organization to
take the place of the former Cosmo-
politan- Club will be needed soon, ac-
cording to the report.
*FIRST CALL
Thousands of employers all over
the country are asking for college
women in their offices. Such wo-
men with secretarial training
have the first call on positions of
trust and responsibility at the
heart of the business. Katharine
Gibbs, in fact, has calls for more
good secretaries than there are
graduates available.
