Funds Establish

Similar Plans At Other Big,
Ten Universities Create
A Surplus Of Profits
The recently-approved plan for a
University Book Exchange, to be op-,
erated by students, will embrace the
establishment of a special scholar-
ship fund created from the profits of.
the exchange, it was announced yes-
terday by sponsors.
The success of similar exchanges in
other large mid-western universities
and the response which greeted the
acceptance of the plan here have been
taken as indications that the estab-
lishment of such a fund will be pos-
sible. Exchanges at the University
of Minnesota and Purdue University
have shown exceptional profits. The
Minnesota exchange realized the
profit of $1,200 from the sale of $13,-
000 worth of used texts.
The exchange, which will operate
from Feb. 9 to 19, and in similar pe-
riods each semester, in the north
lounge of the Union, will afford em-
ployment for a number of students,
under the supervision of a student
manager to be appointed by an ex-
ecutive committee. The committee
will be composed of representatives
from the League, the Union and the
offices of the Dean of Students and
the Dean of Women, and will also
supervise the employment of all per-
sonnel.
The committee has also urged that
donations of used textbooks be given
the exchange to provide an impetus
for the opening of the exchange. Do-
nations can be left at the Union, it
was announced.
Applications for positions to the ex-
change staff are still available at the
Dean's office and the Union, it was
added. It was stressed by the com-

The formula for success was then
taken from the answers of those stu-
dents who were rated high in per-
sonality. Causes for lack of populari-
ty were found in the papers of those
who were deficient in "social pres-
tige."
Boys will find themselves socially
popular if they have shown restraint
in their classroom performances, the
survey reveals. "There is a notable
tendency toward restrained behavior
among the successful boys, and com-
paratively unrestrained behavior
among successful girls," Professor
Burks explains.
On the basis of these tests it is
pointed out that girls who show great
interest in boy's activities are usually
the most popular. Girls who like the
occupation of reporter for a woman-s
page and who enjoy amusement parks
are the campus "queens."

New Furnace
Enables Study
Of Old Pottery
By JEAN MAXTED
Study of how the ancients made
their pottery has been made possible
by the recent acquisition of an elec-
trict furnace uy the laboratory for
research in archaeological technology
in the Museum of Anthropology. Con-
trol of atmospheric conditions by the
varying of the quantities of gases and
compressed air enables reproduction
of conditions under which the an-
cients worked.
Clay from the sites where ancient
pottery has been excavated will be
fired in the furnace, Fred Matson,
Rackham Predoctoral Fellow, ex-
plained. Most of the material is to
be used in the experiments comes
from Seleucia where a University ex-
pedition has been working for several
years.
Besides the electrical furnace the
laboratory is equipped with appara-
tus for chemical analysis of the com-
position of the pottery.
In order to learn how the pottery
was made, the laboratory uses photo-
graphic microscopy. From examin-
ing the clay and other materials used
in making the pottery and by deter-
mining the methods used in manu-
facture, Matson predicts we will be
able to tell the history of the de-
velopment of the potter's art, the
period which the materials represent,
and whether they were manufactured
locally or imported.

Union Vocational Series
Continues Thursday
Prof. Albert H. Lovell, assistant

lems and solutions of problems in

also act to permit discussion among
students interested in the same field.
Following the talk, coffee and hot
chocolate will be served on the ter-
race adjoining the small ballroom.

Virginia Rounds,

By WILLIAM ELMER
The German people as a race have
never enjoyed free political expres-
sion and it is not probable that they
ever shall, Dr. John W. Eaton of the
German department stated in a pa-
per delivered before the Modern Lan-
guage Association in New York, Dec.
28, last year.
The psychological traits of the
German people make it unlikely that
with any change of political leader-
ship, there will come a sudden and
complete change in the German as
a political human being, Dr. Eaton.
said. Contrary to the commonly-held
opinion that the ending of the pres-
ent abnormal state of affairs in Ger-
many will bring about a return to
free political expression by the Ger-
mans, Dr. Eaton stated that they
have never experienced such a free-
dom.
Germany gained but little from the
Rennaissance and allied movements
which promised and achieved great-
er degrees of individualism and free-
dom in other European countries, Dr.
Eaton pointed out, and this failure
was reflected in German satire of the
time, notably the degeneration of the
out-spokenness and courage of Mo-
scherosch and Grimmelshausen into
the timrous satire of Rabener. In

Rabener's own words, "I do not dare
to say to a village schoolmaster, what
a Londoner or a Lord Bishop would
have to listen to."
Dr. Eaton said that the 18th cen-
tury was the turning point. It was
then that the free man bore fruit, or
the culmination of centuries of slows
and painful growth began to emerge.
But it did not develop in Germany.
The average German of the 18th cen-
tury, said Dr. Eaton, regarded liberty
as coming from above from his rulers
rather than an objective to be
achieved from within. To a demonic
leader who promised results the Ger-
man would yield unquestioning obe-
dience so long as such a leader could
achieve some appearance of prestige
and success at home and abroad.
