, MARCH 19, 1939 THE MICHIGAN DAILY Arts Academy Ends Acivities For Year Here Museums' Director Leads Organization For 1940 Meetings In Ann Arbor (Continued from Page 2) from "Othello"-"I thought so then." In discussing the character of Eme- lia, he complained that the part has never been properly interpreted. He disagreed with the common con- ception of Emelia as a common, stu- pid woman with ratier loose morals. He pointed out that as the respected social head of a strict military com- munity, she was the obvious one to whom pretty, innocent Desdemona would turn when she found herself unable to cope with the responsible position as general'z wi. Mathematics Members of the mathematics sec- tion yesterday presented reports on their individual research projects during the past year. The morning session heard addresses by Prof. L. S. Johnston of the University of De- troit, Prof. C. C. Craig of the mathe- matics department and Dr. J. D. Hill of Michigan State College. Undergraduate papers were also read at the morning session by Wil- lard E. Swenson, C. L. Dolph, '39 and Mrs. Kathryn Crippen Warner. In the afternoon session a lecture on Napier, the discoverer of loga- rithms, was delivered by Prof. E. R. Sleight of Albion College who re- cently spent a semester at Edinburgh, the home of Napier. Professor Sleight commented on Napier's early discoveries of multiplication and di- vision instruments that were widely used by the common people. A report on the joint work of Mr. B. Pecherer and Prof. G. Y. Rainich of the mathematics department on "A Series of Matrices" was delivered by Professor Rainich, and Prof. Norman Anning of the mathematics depart- ment delivered the closing address on "Some Associated Conics." Landscape Architecture Prof. H. H. Musselman of the agri- cultural engineering department of Michigan S t a t e College briefly sketched the background of farm de- velopment, characterizing the period immediately preceding the World War as one of consolidation of the gains brought about by improved farm machinery. During this time standardization became the predom- inating theme in farm procedure. The idea of standardization on the farm has since been replaced by the realization that each farm consti- tutes an individual problem, said Pro- fessor Musselman. Science and the specialists in planting, handling of live stock and the lay-out of farm buildings and facilities, he said, can do no more than make general recom- mendations. Philosophy Debates on the doctrines of such thinkers as Plato, Aristotle and Thomas Aquinas featured the meet- ing of the philosophy section of the Academy. The discussions were centered around the papers of Father E. C. Garvey of Assumption College, Pro- fessor Roger Hazelton, of Olivet Col- lege and Prof. John S. Marshall of Albion College.1 Father Garvey presented a new re- view of Neo-Thomism, not only as an historical presentation of the views of St. Thomas Aquinas, but also as an application of fundamental ethical theories of Thomism to certain mod-c ern social and economical problems.I Professor Hazelton's talk dealt with a critical review of ethical doctrines1 of Nicolai Hartmann, especially withc the problem of the relation betweent human purpose and the conception of purposiveness in the universe. t DAILY OFFICIAL BULLETIN SUNDAY, MARCH 19, 1939 VOL.
