Encouraged by a telegram from his axis partner in Berlin which declared that the German people would sup- port Italy "against attempts to re- strict the justified will for the destiny of our two peoples" and by vague rumors that Madrid would be occu- pied in time for him to announce its fall, Ui Duce will be able to ask for a final showdown. Chamberlain Wavering Chamberlain, .until now wavering between the "democratic" and fascist protagonists, temporarily , withheld negotiations today to weld the split' "Stop Hitler" bloc until after Mus- solini has spoken. Meanwhile, Germany wasaconsoli- dating her hold over new additions and was rumored to have begun troop movements in East Prussia and along the Polish Corridor's western fron- tier to counteract what they called confirmed reports that "more than 1,000" Poles were taking position in" the Polishseaport city of Gdynia on Danzig's western fronier. Danzig Worders Danzig citizens, windering "when does our turn come" in Adolf Hit- ler's "Drang nach Osten," showed little excitement over the military re- ports. They were more concerned, however, with Poland's order with-' drawing surplus railway equipment from Danzigand the Corridor which they feared would hamper shipping] activities. A few weels ago Danzig's Nazis were resigned to waiting a long time. But the tempestuous events which brought1 Bohemia and Moravia and thens Memel into Germany's realm and put Slovakia under Nazi protection have caused some to reconsider. Japan May Sign Pact' TOKYO, March 26. Sunday)-(P) -An authoritative source reported today the possibility of a German-c Japanese defensive pact againstt Soviet Russia., He said the government had re- fused to join' an unconditional mili-1 tary alliance with Germany and Italy but might enter an agreement byl which Japan would support the Nazis if Russia "attacks Germany withoutt provocation." ' His comment followed the closing sessions yesterday of the 74th Diet in which minority groups, which have 106 out of 466 seats in the parliament, presented a resolution advocating conversion of the anti-comintern pact into a military alliance. The resolution, which was handed to the Premier, Baron Kiichiro Hir- anuma, declared "a tri-partite mili- tary alliance between Japan, Ger- many and Italy should be concluded against Britain and France, who are obstructing accomplishment of imperial aims in the present sacred war (in China)." Circles close to the government yesterday reported that Germany was exerting powerful pressure to bring Japan into a military alliance.

H. Edgerton, Director of Vocational Guidance at the University of Wis- consin, declared yesterday at the clos- ing session of the University's Guid- ance and Occupational Information Conference. Warning that "the day of the nar- row specialist is passing," he pointed out that mere skill and knowledge no longer suffice. Swiftly changing tech- nological and social conditions which abolish and create jobs overnight de- mand ability to adopt obsolete tech- niques to new problems. Traditional education methods are not fitting students for this chang- ing world, Dr. Edgerton charged. Pro- fessional schools today, he said, are training graduates for conditions ob- solete by 20 years in the field of law, 17 in engineering and nine in medi- cine. If students are to be moulded to Spring Concert To Mark Band's 80thBirthday 165 Musicians To Appear In Free Presentation To Be Given On April 4 Commemorating its 80th anniver- sary, the University Band, under the direction of Prof. William D. Revelli, will present its annual Spring Concert at 8:15 p.m. Tuesday, April 4 in Hill Auditorium. The concert will be free, and all University students and faculty are invited, Gilbert Phares, '39, business manager of the band said yesterday. Both the concert and regimental bands in the University willbe com- bined to celebrate the special occa- sion. As a result, 165 musicians, one of the largest ensembles in the na- tion, will appear on the stage during parts of -the program. The anniversary program will feat- ure Betty Correll, trombone solo- ist from Elkhart, Ind. Widely known throughout the Middle West as an outstanding artist, Miss Correll is the sister of Dick Correll, '40M. Presentation of a loving cup to the winners of the Kappa Psi, honorary musical fraternity, solo and ensemble contest will also mark the program. The winning contestants will be feat- ured in special numbers. -The Band will play modern music incorporating currently popular rhythms and melo- dies along with classical works by Tschaikowsky, Wagner and Bach. Marches by Sousa, Goldman and King will round out the program. To mark the occasion, the Band is planning an elaborate silver anni- versary program portfolio which will contain pictures of the Band and lists of the organization's activities and personnel. Two Student Bicyclists. Injured In Auto Crash Bruce M. Beyer, '41, and Mildred A. Perkins, '41, were injured late Fri- day night when the bicycles they were riding were hit by an automobile near the city limits. Beyer suffered a possible skull frac- ture, while Miss Perkins suffered a fractured right elbow. adopt themselves to new job require- ments, he said, education must stop simply "rehashing the views of oth- ers" and turning out "pattern think- ers." Socialdevelopment and emo- tional stability, he declared, must be emphasized. Taking engineers as an example, Dr. Edgerton stressed the need for es- thetic development, social stability and business administration as more vital today than a knowledge of "stresses and strains." The importance of being a "like- able person," schooled in human na- ture, was emphasized by R. A. Brew- er, Account Executive for MacMan- us, John an Adams, as the prime requisites for success in advertising. One of the most lucrative of all fields, advertising has produced more nervous breakdowns and suicides than any other, he said. "Get a job in the advertising de- partment of some manufacturing con- cern if you want to break into adver- tising," Mr. Brewer advised students. The all-around knowledge gained will furnish needed background for the specialized work of a large agency, he said. Emphasizing t h e "tremendous amount of politics in business," he warned that students "must be able diplomats" to succeed in advertising. Situations constantly arise which de- mand adoption to all sorts of individ- uals and personalities. Other qualities stressed by Mr. Brewer as prerequisite to success in advertising were creative imagination, a solid but flexible ground-work in English and appreciation of art. Goddard Asks Vot e rs Back Doctor Myers Former Law Professor Opposes 'Party Lines In Regency Race The hotly contested Regency race took another turn yesterday when Prof.-Emeritus Edwin C. Goddard, a member of the law faculty for over 20 years, issued a statement recom- mending that voters of the state sup- port Dr. Dean W. Myers, former fac- ulty member and Democratic candi- date for the Board. "I am deeply interestedin the April 3 election, especially in the case of Dr. Dean W. Myers as a candidate for Regent," Professor Goddard de- clared. "For years he lived next door to me and I have known him intimate- ly for "a long time. "Dr. Myers' name appears in the Democratic column, but that should not be important for or against him. In this election it is very unfortun- ate that any votes should be in- fluenced by the party column. The personality and fitness of the candi- date are the only important consid- eration for this office at this time and no candidate I have ever been permitted to vote for as Regent stands higher than Dean Myers in these respects. He is a man of fine character and of outstanding ability both In his professional work and in the many public activities to which he has unselfishly devoted much of his time and energy for the public good." Professor Goddard made no men- tion of the candidacy of Harry G. Kipke, former head football coach. Harriet Sharkey Janet Homer, Stickels Gets Is Head; Jeannette Positions Nat ional Co'llegiate C.

Praising the United States' 25 per cent tariff on German-made goods as a step in the direction of imposing economic measures against aggres- sors, it also calls for an excavation of this policy. Hedy And Garg Both To Be Here Tuesday World's Record Breaker And Rurner Up Swimmers Swamp Ohio As Haynie And Barker Score Double Victories Hough Blasts World Breast StrokeMark By BUD BENJAMIN Michigan churned up a tidal wave in the Intramural Pool last night and rode the crest to its sixth straight National Colleglate title. In a traditional exhibition of power and balance, the Wolverine flotilla won places in all but one event, the 1500 meter swim, to amass 65 points, seven more than Ohio State, the second place winners. After the Buckeyes trailed Prince- ton with 22, chiefly through the bril- liance of two stellar performers, Capt. Richard R. Hough and Albert V'ande Weghe. Hough thrilled a icapacity. crowd last night when he smashed Jack Kasley's world record in the 200 yard breast-stroke with a superb 2:22. flat performance. Kasley's old mark, set in 1936, was 2:22.5. Field 'Far Behind The rest of the field wound up the. two day classic as follows: Texas, Yale, and Harvard 8; Southern Cali- fornia 7; Northwestern 4; Columbia; Iowa and Iowa State 3; and Forida, Franklin and Marshall, Illinois and Kenyon, 2. Crushing free-style power gave Michigan the title they had been fav-. ored to retain. Coach Matt Mann's armada scored 40 points in the 440, tahe 50 the 220, and the 400 yard relay and seven more in the 100 yard free style. After six events Friday, Michigan had held a 34 to 30 lead over Coach Mike Peppe's determined natators, but there was no stopping the Wolver- ines last night as they stayed strictly to the form book, and in some cases even surpassed the pre-meet dope sheet. -Daily Photo, by Gurriston Dick Hough of Princeton (right) and Johnny Higgins of Ohio State just before the former set a new world record of 2:2, for the 204-yard breast stroke at the Intramural Pool last night.
