Notice: Attention of all concerned, and particularly of those having of- fices in Haven Hall, or the Western portion of the Natural Science Build- ing, to the fact that parking of cars n the driveway between these two auildings is at all times inconvenient to other users of the drive and some times results in positive danger to other drivers and to pedestrians on the diagonal and other walks. You are respectfully asked not to park there, and if members of your family gall for you, especially at noon when traffic both on wheels and on foot is heavy, it is especially urged that the car wait for you in the parking space adjacent to the north door of Uni- versity Hall. Waiting in the drive- wy blocks traffic and involves con- fusion, inconvenience and dange jjust as much when a person is sitting in atcar as when the car is parked empty.

Partici- pation before the opening of the first semester must be approved as at any other time. Before permitting any students to participate in a public activity (see definition of Participation above), the chairman or manager of such activity shall (a) require each appli- cant to present a certificate of eligibil- ity, (b) sign'his initials on the back of such certificate and (c) file with the Chairman of the Committee on Student Affairs the names of all those who have presented certificates of eligibility and a signed statement to exclude all others from participation. Certificates of Eligibility for the first semester shall be effective until March 1. . III. Probation and Warning.

Final dispensation of all caps and gowns (Continued on Page 4) New Deal Not New To China, Says Lecturer New Deal policies have twice been tried in China, and both time aston- ishing developments resulted, an in- terview with Dr. Y. Z. Chang, lecturer in Chinese at the University, disclosed yesterday. Wang Mang, the maternal grand- father of an emperor, in the first cen- tury, and Wang An Shih, poet, states- man and reforfner in the 11th cen-' tury, both inaugurated extensive re- forms of a radical nature-veritable New Deals. In both cases, complica-1 tions and personal elements obtrud- ed to interfere with the development of what was at first believed to be sound and much needed reforms. To Form Study Material This and other materials will form the subject of a course on Chinese civilization to be given this summer in the Institute of Far Eastern Stu- dies. In addition to this study, Dr. Chang will conduct a course on Chi- nese literature, for which a series of lectures on literary history and criti- cal and aesthetic principles will be given. Translations of masteipieces are to be studied tn reference -to the original works. Chinese Not Difficult' The Chinese language, Dr. Chang said, is really no more difficult than other languages. Its relatively simple grammar should recommend it to the student. The only obstacle in the way is a psychological one; people have so long believed that it is difficult be- cause it seems so radically different. The removal of this psychological ob- stacle, the use of good textbooks or a syllabus and, most important of all, good teachers like Professor Kennedy and Mr. Yen, who are going to teach Chinese this summer, guarantee the success of any student who plans to devote the reqhisite amount of time to it, Dr. Chang declared. - WIN SAILING RACES Tom Buermann, skipper and Art Oaks, crew, Bill Smith, skipper and Dave Roach, skipper and Sailing Club commodore, won the three races held recently by the club Discuss Trends High School Heads Hold Forum Discussions A group of 35 principals from neighboring high schools 'heard Charles M.

Other speakers, talkingon the same general topic' as Mr. Novak, were J. E. Davis, principal of Ecorse High School and Carl Christy of Denby High School in Detroit. An open dis- cussion from the floor followed the speeches. At the me;ting, Registrar C. P. Stienle of Michigan state Normal was elected presidint for next year.

Money obtained during the drive, conducted nationally among Ameri- can Jews, will be used for .emergency relief among oppressed Jews in cen- tral and eastern Europe.
