Requests Received,
For Copies Of Talk
Requests have been pouring in from
various parts of the country for
copies of the radio talk "The Signi-
ficance of Mental Hygiene for Ado-
lescents" given by Dr. Paul H. Jordan,
innstructor in psychiatry and psychi-
atrist to the Michigan Child Guid-
ance Institute, Sunday, Feb. 26, over
WJR.
About 500 copies of this talk, which
is a part of the Marital Relations
Series, will be mailed to listeners in
Michigan, Ohio, Indiana, Pennsyl-
vania, Tennessee and Canada. This
Marital Relations Series which was
begun last October, has been one of
the most popular programs present-
ed by the University, according to
Prof. Waldo M. Abbot, director of
the Broadcasting Service. More than
6,000 copies of talks in this series
have been mailed to listeners.
Dr. Jordan in his talk, discussed
the more important problems facing
the adolescent. These are the adoles-
cent's need to gradually become in-
dependent of the home, his need to
understand and adjust to his own
bodily changes, his need to establish
a satisfactory relationship with the
opposite sex and his need to eventual-
ly find suitable employment.

the saying took on its literalmean-
ing for me. Now
that I have grown
old and wise, I
know that r e a 1
love, if it comes at
all, is the same
throughout t h e
year. Those who
take on additional
vigor in their love
when springtime rolls around, hang
on to their joy and satisfaction. As
for myself, I'll wait until it can bring
real meaning into my life."
Edgar Morrison, '42: "Gosh, is
spring almost here? You know I had
never even given it
a thought. To me,
the saying means
that I shall have to
work awfully fast
if I am to give evi-
dence that the,
proverbial saying
will apply to me.
And I do mean me."
Robert Clark, '42: "Ah, spring!
Beautiful spring!
For, lo, these many
months I have been
looking forward to

gorgeous women
strolling about the
campus with the
gentle zephyrs
playing tricks with
their hair. I have heard so much
about them. Could I but see a beauti-
ful woman, my fancy would be
turned."

of Europe as well as America more1
advantageous facilities in crossing
this international boundary.
The International Youth Hostel
Association, of which the American
group is a member, has ,establish-a
ments in more than twenty nations
at the present time, the statement
said, representing an encouraging'
increase from the single hostel first!
