Appropriation of $276,874 to the
1939 Summer Session and the ap-
pointment of Prof. Robert B. Hall of
the ,geography department as chair-
man of the division of social sciences
for the next three years highlighted
the October meeting of the Board of
Regents held yesterday.
Approval was given a system of
professional post-graduate courses' in
forestry. Proposed by the School of
Forestry and Conservation, the work
will be offered on a fee basis and is
to be self-supporting. Non-credit sem-
ina'rs, up to a month in duration, will
be held during the winter season.
A proposal by Douglas P. Tracy,
'40E, that a cooperative student book
exchange be set up and managed
through the League and Union, was
referred by the Regents to Dean of
Students Joeph A. Bursley and the
Union board of governors for further
study.
Gifts totaling $1,750 were accepted.
Many Gifts Aceted
A donation of $950 from the Mc-
Gregor Fund of Detroit to the Lae
Angelus Astronomical Support fund
was the largest of the day. The Ameri-
can Wildlife Institute gave $500 to the
Fish Management Fund. A benefac-
tion of $300 was accepted from the
educational committee of the Michi-
gan Kings Daughters to be added to
their educational fund. The Univers-
ity was presented with a bronze bust
of the late Prof. Albert J. J. Rosseau,
of the'School of Architecture, by his
wife.
In setting the Summer Session bud-
get figure, the Resents left the way
open for another requet. for funds
if those provided prove inadequate.
More Funds Sought
In its petition to the Regents, the
Summer Session had cited its in-
creased enrollment to support a re-
quest for $325,528. The student body
in the last five years has grown
from 3,272 to 5,771 and fees have
risen from $113,000 to $202,000 while
the budgetary grant has only been
raised from $227,000 to $285,000, the
petition declared.
A number of motions concerning
faculty members were made at the
meeting.
Prof. John G. Winter, hea'd of the
Latin department and director of the
Museum of Classical Archeology, was
named as director of the Institute of
Archeological Research.

British Troopers
Clash With Arabs1
GAZA, Palestine, Oct. 29.-(IP)-
British troops scored another victory
today in this historic Philistine City,
where Samson died, in their sweepng
drive against Arab rebels throughout
Palestne.
Eight thousand Arab residents of
Gaza who were suspected of harbor-
ing and assisting rebels against Bri-
ish authority were rounded up, ques-
tioned, searched and relieved of fire-
arms in a surprise attack at dawn.
Homecoming Alumni were treated to a sight many former University
students once thought was a thing of the past-a pair of powerful
backs who have the ability not only to carry the ball for consistent
gains but who also can get a football over the goal line into the pay-
dirt area for those elusive six points. Tom Harmon and Paul Kroner,
the two sophomore halfbacks pictured above, have already earned the
title, "Touchdown Twins." Both starred in yesterday's victory over the
Illini.

Negotiations To Be Held
To Regulate Status Of
All Poles In Germany
BERLIN, Oct. 29 -(P)- German
authorities called a' halt tonight to
the mass expulsion of Polish Jews
pending the opening of negotiations
Monday to regulate the status of all
Polish citizens in Germany.
The action was taken simultaneous-
ly with an announcement in Warsaw
that Poland had abandoned plans for
retaliatory measures against Germans
residing there.
More than 20,000 Polish Jews had
been herded on both sides of the bor-
der by Germany in a counter move to
a new Polish citizenship law which
Berlin authorities feared would leave
thousands of these citizens stranded
in the Reich without passports.
The eleventh hour decision to halt
the movement of Polish Jews toward
the border came after Polish repre-
sentatives told German authorities
they had misinterpreted the new citi-
zenship regulations of the neighbor-
ing republic.
