Student Opinion . Bureau
Will Be Patterned After
Type Set Up By Gallup
A permanent Bureau of Student
Opinion, which will conduct campus
polls several times a month, will be
established here next year, according
to James Vicary, '39, chairman of the
committee in charge of organization.
These polls, to be modeled after
those conducted on a national scale
by Dr. Gallup, will indiqate the cam-
pus view on vocational selection, po-
litical beliefs, marriage and educa-
tion. It is expected that the minfor-
mation collected will be of benefit to
the sociology, political science, psy-
chology and anthropology depart-
ments.
An executive board composed of a
statistician, a Daily reporter and stu-
dent members of various university
departments will be established to
±manage the polls, Vicary said.
The results of these polls will be
compared with those conducted regu-
larly at the University of Texas and
with the Gallup polls. Both of these
measure opinion by questioning a
representative percentage of people
and using various "controls" to check
validity.
Two experimental polls have been
conducted this year, said Vicary; one
on educationrun in connection with
tle Spring Parley, and the other on
religion conducted by mail during
Christmas vacation. Statisticans
who checked over the education poll
considered it fairly accurate, he said.

By LAURENCE MASCOTT
The early Modern English Diction-
ary covers a "period of changes more
fundamental than those of any later
time," according to Prof. Charles C.
Fries of the English department, who
has been at work since 1929 on the
compilation of the Eiarly Modern
English Dictionary. %
We are inclinedi to believe that the'
last century has been one of great
changes, but even a cursory exainina-
tion of the changes in the period
from 1472 to 1700 shows the tremen-
dous upheavals in all fields of human
endeavour that occurred during this
time, he continued. Moreover, these
great changes are revealed by the
fact that the total number of Eng-
lish words increased 300 per cent
during this same period.
This was the period, Professor
Fries said, of the great changes in
religion brought about by Luther
and the Protestant Reformation and
the printing of the King James ver-
sion of the Bible in 1611.
There was also, he said, a great
revolution in thought due to the dis-
coveries in science. Francis Bacon
in his "Advancement of Learning"
made popular the experimental
method in science. Galileo put for-
ward his first law of motion. Coper-
nicus set forth his theory on the Uni-
verse and this completely upset the
limited medieval motions of astro-
nomy. Kepler established his laws
of planetary motion, and Harvey dis-
covered the circulation of the blood
system. It was in this same period,
moreover, that Newton compiled his
"Principles of Mathematics" and re-
vealed the law of gravity.
The world itself, Professor Fries
continued, was opened up to the eyes
of Europe with Columbus' discovery
of America, Vasco da Gama's voyage
to India via the Cape of Good Hope
and Drake's circumnavigation.
There was, moreover, a great
awakening in the arts, he said, with
the names of Spenser, Marlowe,
Shakespeare, Jonson, Milton and
Dryden stamping themselves indelib-
ly in literature, and with the de-
velopment of new forms such as the
sonnet, blank verse, the masque, the
romantic and heroic drama, the
novel, and the newspaper.
This was also the period of the as-
cendency of Parliament over the
throne and the beginnings of the
British Empire. The defeat of the
Spanish Armada, Cromwell's "Pro-
tectorate," the Restoration and the
Bloodless Revolution all occurred in
these years. It was also during this
time that firearms came into general
use with the resulting waning of ar-
chery.
One of the greatest upheavals,
however, occurred in the daily life of
the European populace, Professor
Fries concluded. He listed the fol-
lowing as first being used or made
were sponsored by the organization.
During the year the YCL has worked
with other campus liberal groups.
An educational program is planned
by the YCL for the Summer Session
and extended work in this field will
be undertaken next year.
Local Secondary Schools
To Participate In Study
Secondary schools of Ann Arbor
will participate in a 12-year study
of the high school curriculum, ac-
cording to Otto W. Haisley, superin-
tendent of local sch2ools, who re-.
turned from Lansing recently. A for-
mal application had been made, ask-
ing Ann Arbor's inclusion in the
group of 18 cities in Michigan which
are to form this group.
Schools which take part in this
program will retain all their former
responsibilities and initiative, but will
also be aided by the state in develop-
ing instructional improvements, Mr.
Haisley said.
Sphinx To Hold Picnic
Sphinx, junior men's honor society,
will hold its annual alumni-active
picnic today. Those planning ,to at-
tend are asked to be at the side of
the Alpha Delt house at 2:30 p.m.,

current during, this period: trousers,
silk stockings, chinaware, pocket

pens, lead pencils, table forks, tooth-
brushes, coffee and chocolate houses,
tea drinking, card playing and to-
bacco-smoking.
First Congregational Church, corn-
er of State and William.
10:45 a.m., Service of worship.
"How Large is Your God?" is the
subject of Dr. Leonard A. Parr's ser-
mon. Special music will include: the
organ solo "Prelude" by Florent
Schmitt; the baritone selection sung
by Donn Chown of "Hear Me, O God"
from Mendelssohn's "St. Paul"; and
the- anthem by the choir of Parker's
"In Heavenly Love Abiding."
4:30 p.m. The Student Fellowship
will hold its last meeting of the year
at the home of Raymond Steiner,
Geddes Road. All those wishing to
go on this picnic, please meet at Pil-
grim Hall at 4:30. In case of rain
the meeting will be at 5:30 in the
church parlors.
Any deviation from the above schedule may be made only by
mutual agreement between students and instructor and with the
approval of tle Examination Schedule Committee.
' N.B. Within the past year, the time of exercise for several of the
courses listed in the Literary Announcement has been changed, but
due to an oversight no corresponding change was made in the Exam-
ination Group Letter. In order to avoid conflicts in such cases, the
time of exercise-rather thanthe Examination Group Letter-must be
employed in determining the time of examination.
