No. 192 Z-323 ANN ARBOR, MICHIGAN, FRIDAY, FEB. 24, 1939 PRICE FIVE CENTS Student Senate Spring Voting Is Announced Petitions Will Be Received March 20 To 24, Magdol, Election Head, Declares 16 Will Be Chosen At Polls March 31 The Student Senate will conduct its semi-annual election of 16 Senators Friday, March 31, Edward Magdol, '39, director of elections, announced yesterday. Petitions for candidacy in the bal- lotting to this all-campus represen- tative body will be accepted the week of March 20, in Lane Hall, Magdol explained. Applications should con- tain signatures of five students, a party name not to exceed three words, and should be accompaned by a 50- cent filing fee plus a University cer- tificate of eligibility. Founded Last Year The Student Senate, founded last spring to serve as a sounding board of campus opinion on all matters af- fecting Michigan students, drew 2,106 voters to the polls in its fall election and Magdol predicted that the March turnout would be larger yet. In the election, the Hare system of proportional representation with the single transferable vote will be em- ployed in an effort to obtain a true cross section of student thought. The 16 Student Senators, who were elected last spring, and whose terms expire March 30 are: President Tom Adams, '40; Allen Braun, '40; Charles Buck, '40; Louis Grossman, '40; Mar- van Reider, '39; Seymour Spelman, '39; Horace Gilmore, '39; Harold Ossepow, '39; Charles Quarles, '39; Vice-President Joseph Gies, '39; Charles Kistler, '39; Norman Kewley, '40E; Eliot Robinson, '39; bharles Erwin, '40E; Philip Westbrook, '40 and Don Treadwell, '40. Reelection Posts Open These students may run for re- election, Magdol said. He urged all campus groups and organized units of expression to nominate candidates so that a more adequate picture of the campus may be represented at the Senate meetings. The Student Senate has initiated a program of educational investiga- tion and study in an attempt to pro- mote constructive changes in the University curriculum by student evaluation and criticism, as its prin- cipal project for the new semester. Two Men Paint Jewish Houses With Swastias Unidentified Visitors Seen Here Early Wednesday By Men In Fraternity Two unidentified men, believed to be pranksters, painted three-foot swastikas on the doors of three Jew- sli fraternity houses at 3:30 a.m. Wednesday, The Daily learned yes- terday. The men, dressed in solid-color mackinaws, were seen walking from one house by two of the fraternity members. Hearing noises on the front porch, they had gone to investigate and saw the men from a front win- dow. Drops of paint were traced a short distance down the street, where they ended suddenly. This was taken as indication that the men had a car waiting. It could not be determined whether they were students. The swastika was not discovered until morning. The three houses called the police and asked that the vandals be sought. No evidence as to their identity had been found last night. One fraternity ventured the belief that this manifestation of anti- Semitism was more than a prank, (Continued On Page 2) Daily Tryouts Contrary to previous announce- ments, tryouts for the Daily edi- torial, sports and women's staffs will not meet in the Student Publi- cations Building at 4 p.m. Monday. Tryouts will meet at the same time Sheen To Give Catholic View Of Deity Today RT. REV. MSGR. SHEEN Author, Scholar, Orator Speaks In Second Of SRA Series The Rt. Rev. Msgr. Fulton J. Sheen, aoted Catholic lecturer and author, will deliver the second in a series of lectures on "The Existence and Nature of God" at 8 :15 p.m. today in the Graduate School Auditorium. Continuing the series begun last Saturday by Bertrand Russell, Mon- signor Sheen will present the ortho- dox and historical position of religion concerning the existence of God. Father Sheen is heard Sunday eve- nings regularly on the Catholic Hour. He has studied in Louvain, Belgium, where he won the Cardinal Mercier prize of Philosophy, in Rome, and England. Father Sheen returned to the United States in 1926 to become Professor of Philosophy at the Catho- lic University of America. In addition to his scholastic and oratorical achievements, Monsignor Sheen has written several well- known books on the philosophy of religion. His book entitled, "God and Intelligence" is concerned with the problem of the use of reason in deal- ing with the existence of God, and is closely connected with the topic of his speech today. Annual Frosh Activities Meet Attracts 400 Nearly 400 activities-minded stu- dents attended the Union activities smoker held from 8 to 10 p.m. yester- day in the main ballroom of the Union. The smoker was primarily for the purpose of acquainting students, interested in entering the various ex- tra-curricular activities offered on the campus, with the nature of these or- ganizations. The smoker was highlighted by a series of short talks given by lead- ers in various campus organizations and societies briefly outlining the charcteristics and problems of their respective fields. Among the speak- ers were, Robert Hartwell, '39, presi- dent of the independent men's Con- gress, Robert Mitchell, '39, managing editor of The Daily, Phil Buchen, '39, business manager of The Daily, and numerous representatives of other campus publications and organiza- tions. Robert Canning, '39, head cheer leader and secretary of the In- terfraternity Council, acted as mas- ter of ceremonies. Following the series of talks a pe- riod was allotted to permit discus- sions between the-students and the activities representatives. Dr. Heller To Give Last Talk Today Dr. Bernard Heller will deliver his last sermon before retiring into pri- vate life at 7:15 p.m. today following the weekly Sabbath Service in the Hillel Foundation. His subject will be "The True and Alleged Meaning of the Chosen People Doctrine." In his talk, Dr. Heller, who recent- ly resigned as director of the Hillel Foundation after serving nine years, will take up false interpretations given to the "chosen people doctrine" by H. G. Wells, George Bernard Shaw and Father Coughlin. Job Experts Will Counsel Students Here Business Leaders To Sift Current Job Problems CommencingMarch 20 Appointment Bureau SponsorsMeeting Business leaders and personnel ex- .perts from all parts of the nation will travel here next month to tell stu- dents what they may expect of the business world and what the business world expects from them in the way of jobs. The occasion will be the Univers- ity's annual Guidance and Occupa- tional Information Conference to be held from March 20 to March 25. Sponsored by the University Bureau of Appointments and Occupational Information in conjunction with a student committee composed of Marcia Connell, '39, League repre- sentative, and Don Treadwell, '40, Union representative, the conference sprang from student demand for first-hand information on the per- sonal qualifications and technical training required for success in vari- ous vocations. Counsels Many Students Through the Bureau, the Univers- Lty each year counsels several hun- dred students concerning job require- ments and opportunities, places grad- uates and alumni through nation- wide employer contacts and gives students vocational advice on the basis of personality, intelligence, aptitude and interest patterns determined by tests. "During the conference, the Uni- versity attempts to furnish students a realistic picture of various occupa- tions in government, business and industry through a series of discus- sions by leaders in these fields," Dr. Purdom declared. Need Information "We feel that students particular- ly need first hand information about the beginning jobs they will be re- quired to fill, and what avenues of promotion there may be through these jobs to ultimate positions of responsibility. The importance of per- sonal qualifications and attitudes, the training required and the com- mon mistakes of workers in the field are also vital," he emphasized. Scheduled in the order of student interest as determined by a recent poll conducted by the Bureau of Stu- dent Opion, the vocations will be discussed a follows: Monday, March 20: Government and Politics, 7:30 p.m. Tuesday, March 21: Social Service, 4:15 p.m.; Research, 4:15 p.m.; Home Management and Related Occupa- tions, 7:30 p.m.; Plant Management, 7:30 p.m. Wednesday, March 22: Fashion, (Continued on Page 2) Find NYA Aid Unappreciated State Official And Local Director HitApathy Student apathy toward the ques- tion of NYA jobs, their importance and the necessity for their continu- ance, will be to blame in a large de- gree if student aid appropriations are cut, A. H. Robertson, state adminis- trator of NYA and Harold S. Ander- son, director of NYA for the Uni- versity, both emphasized last night at a forum in the Michigan League held under the auspices of the American Student Union. Educators throughout the state unanimously favor the student relief program, Mr, Robertson said, regard- less of what political views they may hold. It is up to the students, how- ever, to indicate to their individual senators and congressmen how im- portant the NYA is to them, he added. The cut appropriations in the Em- ergency Relief Bill will not have any effect on Michigan NYA since the allotment has already been made through July, Mr. Robertson ex- plained, but it iscertain that expres- sions of opinion particularly from students will have an effect in deter- mining the amount of the appropria- tion in subsequent bills. There are about 1,100 students with NYA jobs at the University, Mr. Anderson pointed out and it is prob- able that all those desiring jobs will (e- President Of Beirut, Syria, University, Will Present Illustrated Talk At Union By HARRY KELSEY Bayard Dodge, president of the American University in Beirut, Syria, will talk on the "Near East Renais- sance" at a luncheon at 12:15 p.m. today in the small ballroom of the Union. Dr. Dodge is here for a two- day visit as guest of the Interna- tional Center. Movies in technicolor that Dr. Dodge has taken of the American University will be shown by him at 4:15 p.m. in the main ballroom of the Union. Pictures of some other col- leges that are members of the Near Eastern College Association will also be shown, especially Robert College, which has sent students to the Uni- versity for many years.There will be no admission charge for the movies and students, faculty and residents of Ann Arbor are invited to attend. Dr. Dodge will devote Saturday to interviewing students interested in spending their junior year at Beirut as exchange students. At 5:45 p.m. Saturday he will speak over' radio station WJR on "American Educa- tion in the Near East." In his talk today on the Near East Renaissance, Dr. Dodge will discuss the cultural awakening in that part of the world. He will tell how, as the Washington Post recently put it, "The Near East is going Western lickety-split." Not only the material changes that industry is making, but also the widespread social adjust- ments will be considered. Dr. Dodge first visited Beirut in the course of a year's trip around the world after graduating from Prince- ton in 1909. Later, becoming inter- ested in social work in the Near East, he planned to teach at Beirut to learn the land and the language, and then go into the interior to work among the natives. The war changed this, however, keeping Dodge working hard in Beirut. Then came the death of the president of the college, Dr. Howard S.. Bliss, and in 1923, Dr. Dodge, then only 35 years old, was made president. Dr. Dodge accepts no salary for his position. His trips to America every few years are made at his own ex- pense. He lives on the campus in the sort of house that may be rented for $50 a month in Beirut.

The students, who will receive a minimum of 35 hours of flight in- structon in addition to ground school work, are to begin training Monday at both the Ann Arbor and Ypsilanti1 airports. Thirteen of the students are en- gineers, while only three are in the literary college. Two are architects,j one is a forester, and one a lawyer. A large majority of them are seniors. The engineers are Robert C. Hoag,; '39E; James E. Crawford, '39E; Daniel1 Grudin, '39E; Donald R. Knapp, '39E;l Fredrick A. Maxam, '39E; Donald H. Shiley, '39E; Samuel Taubman, '39E;1 Karl J.

If the test plan, which is beingt sponsored by the' Civil Aeronautics Authority, proves successful on the 13 college campuses where it is being tried this semester, it will be extended to train 20,000 students as pilots for a huge military air reserve. The training program was a part of the President's message to Congress on the nation's defense and is in line with the national rearmaments pro- gram. a Murphy Appoints Judicial Committee' WASHINGTON, Feb. 23-A)-At- torney General Frank Murphy, at the direction of President Roosevelt, ap- pointed a committee today to study practices of quasi-judicial federal agencies and recommend improve- ments in their procedure. Murphy had informed the Chief Executive that the Justice Depart- ment's experience in attempting to uphold the validity of decisions by such agencies had shown there was "need for procedural reform in the field of administrative law." No specific case was mentioned in today's announcement, but it was. recalled that the Supreme Court sharply criticized last April the pro- cedure Secretary Wallace followed in the Kansas City Stockyards Case.

Wessell, Director of the Gophers Blank Hockey Team To Clinch Series Absence Of Stodden Slowsj Michigan Six; Minnesota Speed Is Decisive Factor Bert Stodden, varsity defense-1 man, was operated on yesterday; in Minneapolis, and as a result1 did not participate in last night's hockey game between Minnesota and Michigan,. Stodden was struck by a sudden attack of ap- pendicitis and was immediately rushed to the hospital. MNNEAPOLIS, Minn., Feb. 23 (Special to The Daily)-Minnesota's powerful sextet tonight defeated a hard skating, game, but tired Michi- gan hockey team 7-0. This victory marked their third win over Michi- gan and clinches the conference title for the Gophers. The Gopher hockey combination of St. Vincent, Paulsen, Kenny Ander- son, and Mariucci, dominated the play throughout the game. Michigan, however, playing without Stodden, star defense man who is in the hos- pital, kept fighting to the finish. The first scoring of the game came, about half way through the first period with St. Vincent hitting pay dirt unassisted. Michigan's scoring threats were all stopped at the blue line as the Gopier defense tightened.- Although Minnesota scored three goals in the second period, Michigan, led by the flashy skating of George Cooke, right wing, started to break through the Gopher defense and1 made its first serious scoring threat. Minnesota's score came shortly af- (Continued on Page 3) Schedule Drive For Senior Dues Collections To Be Made ThursdayAnd Friday A drive to collect unpaid senior dues will be undertaken next Thurs- day and Friday, it was announced yesterday by Robert O. Morgan, alum- ni secretary. Collection booths will be placed in the lobby of Angell Hall, University Hall, the League and Union lobbies and in the main library. The major portion of these class dues, Morgan said, will be expended to perpetuate the class organization in tli "alumni university." Among the uses of the fund established will be to organize reunions and to main- tain contact between graduates and the University. A "senior night" will be held in the near future in the League ballroom, it was announced yesterday by class officials. The affair will be held in conjunction with the regular League weekend dance, with emphasis on honoring the graduating senior class. Robert Canning, '39, secretary of the Interfraternity Council and head cheer leader, will act as master of ceremonies.

The philanthropic nature of the undertaking, according to Gilbert Phares, '40BAd, was responsible for this move. "Our sole objective," he said, "is to give the students a fine time at a reasonable price." "Social Security for Everyone on Campus" is the theme of the promo- tional campaign, with tickets being numbered in the style of social secur- ity cards.. Cin der Squad Has Advantage In Irish Meet Michigan And Notre Dame To Resume Hostilities After Lapse Of 20 Years Michigan's powerful track team, shorn of some of its power by illness, but still a strong favorite to win, will meet Notre Dame at 7:30 p.m. today at Yost Field House in the resump- tion of a track rivalry that has lain dormant for a score of years. Michigan last met Notre Dame in a dual meet in 1919. Tonight's meet- ing will be the eleventh in a series that stands at a 9-1 margin for the Wolverines. Michigan, on the basis of a 77-18 rout of a Michigan State track team that Notre Dame defeated 65-30, and because of its impressive showing at the Illinois Relays last Saturday, should win handily. Coach John Nich- olson of the Irish says Charlie Hoyt's men "should win by 20 points" as he believes Michigan could beat the com- bined forces of Notre Dame and any other two teams in the middle west. Coach Hoyt, however, while con- fident his team will come through with a victory, is bothered somewhat by the "mystery" flu disease which has affected several of his Wolverine mainstays. The squad list which he has posted for tonight's meet will, as a result, be somewhat tentative as Hoyt doesn't know who will turn up in condition to compete. The feature event on the program is the two-mile race between Ramblin' Ralph Schwarzkopf of the Wolverines and Notre Dame's captain, Greg Rice. Rice, only five fot six and the short- est major distance star in the coun- try, bias beaten the Michigan ace three times, over the one-mile, two- (Continued on Page 3) Technic Announces Cover Photo Contest In search of new cover ideas, the Technic has announced a Cover Pho- to Contest, with prizes ranging from $1 to $10 for winning entries.

Kipke today seemed certain of a tri- umphal return to the University which in 1937 discharged him as head football coach, after a floor rebellion against machine control of the Re- publican convention gave him over 1,000 votes to the 400 polled by Al- fred Connable, opposition candidate. Political observers here concede a GOP victory in the April election. It was the expected conclusion to a battle which party leaders had at- tempted to keep off the floor with requests that Connable withdraw. The Ann Arbor man's refusal led to a roll call that provided the main interest in an otherwise cut-and-dried con- vention. Vote Attempt Backfires The dramatic climax to back-stage jockeying was high-lighted when an attempt to vote the large Genesee delegation, supposedly McKeighan- controlled, as a unit, backfired. A challenger with credentials in per- feet order survived inspection and put through a delegate-by-delegate vote which ended with McKeighan one of the best known Republican figures in the state, controlling only 33 of more than 60 delegates. Kipke was assured of the election when a revolt against Edward Bar- nard's Wayne County delegation of 407 fell through after no leader could be found. Barnard's power added to Frank McKay's large Kent County delegation, what power McKeighan had in the show-down and Upper Peninsula support which was solid with the exception of a single vote- that of Ralph Heikkinen, '39, anti- Kipke leader--gave the former head football coach an easy victory. Kipke Sure To Win Newspapermen reported early Wed- nesday morning that Kipke was sure to win. Connable, after consultation with his supporters late Wednesday night, decided against withdrawal de- spite the certainty that he would lose. Immediately after, it was learned un- officially, that supporters of Joseph J. Herbert of Manistique, who had solid Upper Peninsula support, were aiding Kipke in return for assurance that Herbert would have Wayne and Kent voting strength. An abortive conference working to break up the Wayne block failed to provide the necessary spark-plug, and as Clark MacKenzie, Kalamazoo (Continued on Page 2) Webb To Tall' A tUnon Today Former Franco Prisoner To Address ASU i Mitchell Webb, an American who spent, six months in a Franco con- centration camp and who is now sec- retary of the Committee for Medical Aid to Spain in Detroit, will be the main speaker at the "Lift the Em- bargo" meetng to be held under the auspices of the American Student Union at 4 p.m. today in the north lounge of the Union. As a feature of this meeting, which is part of a nation-wide demonstra- tion protesting the arms embargo on. Loyalist Spain, a parchment scroll setting forth the protest will be signed by faculty members and students. The scroll which will be on exhibit for a short time at the Library, to enable others to sign, is to be sent to Wash- ington. Arthur Klein, '39, a member of Play Production, will read a three- minute tribute to the Americans who died fighting for Spain, written by Ernest Hemingway. Elman Service, '39, who recently re- turned from Spain where he fought with the Abraham Lincoln Brigade, will be honorary chairman of the
