Apparatus Exchange: The Regents
at their meing in Maren, 1927, au-,
thorized an arrangement for the sale
of scientific apparatus by one de-
partment to another, the proceeds of
the sale to be credited to the budget
account of the deparcnent from
which the apparatus is transferred.
Departments having apparatus
which is not in active use are advised
to send description thereof to the
University Chemistry Store, of which
Prof. R. J. Carney is director. The
Chemistry store headquarters are in
Room 223 Chemistry Building. An
effort will be made to sell the ap-
paratus to other departments which
are likely to be able to use it. In
some instances the apparatus may be
sent to the University Chemistry
store on consignment and if it is not
sold within a reasonable time, it will
be returned to the department from
which it was received. The object
of this arrangement is to promote
economy by reducing the amount of
unused apparatus. It is hoped that
departments having such apparatus
will realize the advantage to them-
selves and to the University in avail-
ing themselves of this opportunity.

per cent of the engineers on campus
attended church at least once a week,
is opposed to 27 per cent of the total
then on campus. Literary school stu-
dents conformed to the campus pat-
tern.
Taken as a group, 20 per cent of
the fraternity and sorority members
were found to attend regularly, as
opposed to 29 per cent of the entire
campus.
On the question: "In Ann Arbor
during tloe past seven days, how many
times have you attended church guild
or young people's meeting?", the
following figures were compiled:
Didn't
Attended Attend
Church goers ... 24% 76%
Non-church goers .4% 96%
Total campus .... 8.8% 90.2%
Dr. Edward W. Blakeman, Counsel-
Dr of Religious Education, in com-
menting on these figures, said, "I
am shocked that guilds do not draw
a larger share of the constituency
of the religious because they per-
form such a variety of services."
Among these services, Dr. Blakeman
noted informal devotion, co-educa-
tional friendship and a chance to hear
popular professors on campus in free
discussions.
The conspicuous lag between soci-
ology classes and the church, and be-
tween economics commissions and
prayer meetings were cited by Dr.
Blakeman as significant explanar
tions of the disparity.
