Brinkley Rites Planned Forestry Student's Body Found In Vacant Lot Interesting Facts Concerning Jordan Girls Come To Light 7;' IN] 4 TC Residents Of Fourth Floor Give The Low-Down On Life Of La Femme By ROBERT MANTHO Michigan men fortunate enough to obtain dates with the freshman lasses residing in Jordan Hall must prepare themselves for a 15-minute wait. on the average, if they expect to have their dates kept. Period of waiting is from time girl is buzzed until she appears to check out for the evening. This was one of many interesting facts about Michigan women un- earthed by this reporter in an effort' to enlighten the misled youth of the campus concerning the private lives of the typical Michigan coeds. Several of the fourth floor resi- dents of Jordan Hall, representing a cross-section of all freshman girls living in that domicile, were queried and their replies carefully recorded in order to obtain this important aformation- essential to the stal- wart males who frequent the girls' dormitories from time to time. Out of 60 girls living on the fourth floor of Jordan Hall, five give the Michigan men a break by dating them every night of the week; on the 'other hand, eight do not go out at all, deeming their academic marks far more important than silly male company. 40 out of the grand total of 60 date three nights a week: Fri- day and Saturday nights during the weekends, and one night during the week according to their class sche- dules. When questioned as to whether the rujes were kept, Florence Wright, '43, replied that they usually were. "But everybody in Jordan has broken ,ne rule at some time or other," she added significantly. In answer to a question about tne gossip that takes place among the girls, Jane Wright, '43, said that the gossip takes place after a date with a boy. "The girls then get together to discuss the good and bad points cof the boys they have dated, and bcA 69enda Robert J. Morrison, '41E, was in- stalled as president of Tau Beta Pi, national honorary engineering society, at a meeting of- the group last night in the Union. Robert Buritz, '41E, Allen F. Gilliard, '41E, Orrin G. Youngquist, '41E, John Strand, '41E, and E. Michael Hindert, '41E, were installed as vice-president, corres- ponding secretary, secretary-treasur- er, cataloguer and Engineering Coun- cil representative respectively. Amos S. Newton, teaching fel- low in the chemistry department, will speak on "Determination of crystal structure by Fourier anal- ysis of x-ray diffraction patterns" at 4:15 p.m. today in Room 122 of the Chemistry Building. The National Colloid Symposium, sponsored jointly by the National Re- search Council and the American' Chemical Society, will hold its 17th annual meeting June 6 to 8 in Ann Arbor. Papers will be delivered by Prof. F. E. Bartell and J. K. Davis and Prof. Kasimir Fajans of the chemistry department. exchange information vital to the continuance of any would-be ro- mance." Bull sessions, it was disclosed, ik place during the weekends among the 20 girls who do not go out that particular night. Topics vary but the sessions almost always end with the fascinating subject, "Michigan Boys." Although t he girls find that most dates are satisfactory, they have ex- perienced queer times on a few. Florence Wright confessed that sh had her queerest date with a boy who had not gone to classes for two weeks: Jane Wright's queer times, logically, are always experienced when she encounters someone she doesn't want to meet that night. For the benefit of all those poten- tal B.M.O.C.'s who are not acquaint- d with the rules of Joran Hall, the ;irls must be in by 9:30 p.m. on week ights, 11:00 p.m. on Sunday nights. 12:30 am. on Sal urday evenings and 1.:30 a.ni on those ble ued of blest Friday nocturnals. Sufice to say. Friday is the most popular date- night. Knox Will Talk in Ann Arbor Trades Council To Hear Minister In Labor Hall An open meeting of the Ann Arbor Trades Council, featuring Rev.

IT'S 'SAILFISH' NOW-Refitted at a cost of $1,400,000, the ill- fated submarine, Squalus, is back in the U.S. navy again as the "Sail- fish" and is shown, above, at Portsmouth, N. H., navy yard. The Squalus sank May 23, 1939, with 59 men aboard, of whom 33 were saved. Four of these survivors are with the Sailfish. The sub will undergo trials within a month. COMMAND-Commanding of- ficer of the "Sailfish," which is the former Squalus, reconditioned, is Marton C. Mumma, Jr. (above), 35. The officer is a former Iowan.

The McGregor Tower Telescope which the University recently ac- quired at Lake Angelus is only one of a widespread system of observa- tories. The observatory at Bloom- fontein, Orange Free State, South Africa, is the farthest-flung outpost of the University. The construction of the South African plant was the post-mortem fulfillment of, a life-long dream of Prof. William J. Hussey, director of the University Observatory from 1905 to 1926. Professor Hussey came to Michigan from Wisconsin's Lick Observatory, where he had estab- lished himself as a foremost author- ity on double stars as a result of his systematic search of the northerp skies. . The occurrence and distribution of double stars interested Professor Hussey because they are a major factor in evolutionary astronomy. By a study of the relative proportion of twins to single stars, a study which involves above all steady, tedious work, a better understanding of the progressive evolution of celestial bodies is being achieved. The Uni- versity of Michigan is the acknow- ledged leader in this field of re- search, largely through the work of D r. Hussev. lrn litisphere. In 192 his oppor- unity came. Robert, P. Lamont, later -ccretary of Commerce in the Hoo- ver cabinet, invested nearly $175,000 in the project. A workshop was equipped, an excellent 27-inch re- fractor telescope was obtained, its mounting was built, and a site was determined on a mesa near Bloom- fentein. The Orange Free State authorities did not stint in their cooperation. They leased the site to the Univer- sity at one shilling a year and even provided a home for the director. In 1926 Professor Hussey, Prof. Richard A. Rossiter, Henry F. Don- ner and Morris K. Jessup set out to build the new plant. Fate stepped in to prevent the complete realiza- tion of Professor Hussey's dream. While in London he suffered a heart attack and died, only weeks short of his goal. The other expedition members carried on the work. Dr. Rossiter assumed Professor Hussey's tasks and soon the observatory was built and in operation. Jessup and Donner returned to the United States and Dr. Rossiter has pursued the exam- ination of the heavens alone for the past ten years.
