In every town he had visited during the last few years he had thumbed through the "R" section of the tele- phone directory. Positive proot came when he called the enrollment department here and found Roy's middle name to be Tru- man. "There is only one moment in my life that surpassed that," the father said, "and that was when I actually met Roy." But at the moment when the father knew that his long search was over, his son was rehearsing for a.leading role in the Opera. Not wishing to upset Roy on the eve of his premiere performance, the elder Rector chose to keep the discovery a secret. On Friday night he and Harold Journeyed to Ann Arbor to see Roy's performance in the musical comedy. They watched proudly as Roy won the plaudits of the audience with his portrayal of "Hedy La Tour," exotic sultry movie queen. After the show, the father returned to Detroit with- out letting his son know of his pres- ence. Brother Harold, however, could not keep the secret. He had waited long enough to meet his older brother, of whom he had no recollection what- soever. He went backstage, broke the news to Roy, told him the whole story. On Saturday, after the matinee, Roy met his father. The stories that each had to tell re- vealed by how narrow a margin they failed to meet on many occasions. Harold worked as a salesman in Ann Arbor while Roy was a student at the University. Both lived in South Bend, Ind., at the same time. Roy even ran want ads in the Detroit papers, broadcast on a missing persons pro- gram over WJR, simply as a stab in the dark, and in spite of the fact that the father was then working in Detroit, he heard nothing. Roy has supported himself since his mother's death in 1930. By teach- ing during the winter months in Bay County and attending the University' summer sessions, he has been able to gain three years of college instruction. He will be given his degree in August. Ann Arbor Here Is Today's In Summar News Until March 15. students had bet- ter not tread on the toes of any of the 3,221 faculty members and em- ployes of the University who are en- gaged at present in filling out income tax reports for the first time as state employes.'

Questionsto professors:rCan that A given the student who really didn't deserve it be deducted on the income Local firemen and policemen are on the lookout for a small girl with a perverted sense of humor. Last Thursday night, her voice summoned an ambulance to pick ,up a sick person at 1936 Wall Street. The ambulance arrived to find all occupants well and kicking. Again Sunday night the phone rang in the fire station and the childlike voice reported a fire at the same address. Firemen found the house intact. Police and firemen got together and decided the same person was responsible in each case, the only puzzle being who it was and why. S,* . .* Co.

Phoney Couple' Awarded Free Meals AtCo-op The Wolverine, cooperative restaur- ant, did not really believe that some romantic couple would mistake them for Dan Cupid. Last week, as part of the fun-mak- ing planned for their "Leap Year's Leap," the Wolverine announced that any woman who could actually snare an engagement ring and present it and the man at the party would be rewarded with on9 full week's board. Until Sunday night there were no applicents. Then when the party was at its peak, in strolled a beaute- ous blonde leading a bewildered male. She marched up to Michael Massa, '41, master of ceremonies, and claimed the meal ticket. The girl gave her name as Jean Cortwright of Fair Oaks, Pa., and her catch as Tom Aye, '40, of Am- bridge, Pa. Then after several hours of gaiety, the "girl" suddenly removed her blond curls and revealed the hoax. "Jean" was actually Jack C. Hoover,, one of the members of the Coopera- tive. The wig was one of the proper- ties of the Union Opera. Dimand To Speak On Nishapur Ruins Dr. M. S. Dimand, curator of Near Eastern Art at the Metropolitan Mus- eum in New York, will lecture at 4:15 p.m. Thursday in the amphitheatre of the Rackham Building on his ex- peditions to the ruins of Nishapur in Persia.N The talk, an illustrated University lecture, is sponsored by the Institute of Fine Arts.
