General Murphy plan to board a
transport plane in Washington this
afternoon. Plano are being dnade to
have the plane land at the Wayne
County Airport instead of the De-
troit Municipal airport, as this shift
would save valuable time. A motor-
cycle unit of the State police will
escort the two men into Ann Arbor.
Only the possibility of a Senate vote
on the neutrality issue between 3
and 5 p.m. today will prevent Senator
Vandenberg from coming.
A number of testimonial speeches
will follow the actual speaking pro-
gram. The band will. end the cele-
bration with "The Yellow and Blue."
As the crowd leaves the Field
House, it will hear a program by
the Baird Carillon, which will be
connected in the building.
Six coat-checking stations have
been set up in the Field House. Col-
ored decorations on these stations
will correspond to the colorson 'the
six sets of tickets and on the six
sections of tables. Guests are to
check their coats at the appropriate
stations.

her. Remember, though, she is only
one out of 50 thousand. Michigan
women may not -have as dazzling a
supply of feminine pulchritude, but
they do know how to dress well.
Margery Allison, '41, (Chi Omega):
"I don't believe her coming here has
any effect, one way or the other-
Miss Americas come and go, but co-
eds go on forever."
Jane Wilson, '40, (Alpha Chi Ome-
ga): "I think it's all pretty silly. I'm
from the East, and I don't believe
Yale men are any great bargain-I
still prefer Michigan men."
Agnes Crow, '42, (Pi Beta Phi):
"Michigan women can afford to be
big about it-it's only for a, weekend.
It would be a good idea for them to
bring Mickey Rooney up-In spite
,of the fact that he isn't especially
good looking, he is better than the,
average Michigan man."
Grace Miller, '42, (Delta Delta Del-
ta): "Take it any way you want to,
Michigan women can stand some
competition. 'Personally, I'd like to
meet her.
Louise Keatley, '42, (Gamma. Phi
Beta): "I know her slightly, and she
is a swell kid. I don't. think her
coming here is any reflection on sor-
ority women-of course if the Alpha
Phis want to be silly, that's their
business."
Betty Crawford, '42, (Delta Gam-
ma): "It sounds like a good publicity
stunt. I hardly think she'll offer
any serious competition-I'll claw
him if he has any ideas along that
line."
Marianne Haladay, '42, and Rhoma
Heal '42, (Alpha Chii Omega): "Mich-
igan girls, especially the Alpha Phis,
have it coming to them. We haven't
all taken the same attitude, in fact
we're glad to have her."
Anne McCarthy, '40, and Jeanne
.Ctemmons, '40, (Kappa Delta): "It's
the ruin of the campus, and an in-
sult to sorority women in general-
a.if we didn't have enough trouble
as it is, without someone else like
that coming in."
Caroline Denfield, '42, (Delta Delta
Delta): "At last there'll be one of the
four out of five on the campus. Let's
take a lesson from the lark and all
take a good look at her, Iknow the
fellows will."
Marjory-Anne Higgins, '42, (Alpha
Chi Omega): "At least it will show
some sorority women not to place
themselves on too high a pedestal.
Personally, I prefer Princeton and
Harvard men to the men of Eli."

on trips to various institutions, andI
she complied, "even though I hatedI
Individuals should study housing,
sanitation, recreation and education
to get at the basic elements in com-
munity life, she advised.
At one point in the address after
she had pleaded for individual parti-
cipation in government, Mrs. Roose-
velt warned, "if we fail to take part,
we may wake up some day and find
the government in the hands of the
few who were interested enough to
take control."
The United States can never expect
to be left alone in wrld affairs, she
asserted, but must learn that "what
happens in other nations is bound
to affect us."
"We must pick our ideals, work for
them, and then pass them on to our
youth who must continue the fight.
If we do not fight for the ideals,
youth also will turn away from them.
That is the task of my generation
in Ameriactoday," she concluded.
Fisk Stresses
SellingTaetics
Engineers Hear Speech
In RackhamBuilding
Service and friendship and their
respective roles in selling engineer-
ing products to the prospective cus-
tomer were the topics of a lecture
and open discussion held by Louis
C. Fisk, '14E, yesterday in the Rack-
ham Amphitheatre.
Friendship, Fisk pointed out, serves
to acquaint the customer with the
salesman and his product. Enter-
tainment of the customer, he indicat-
ed, is necessary only in so far as it
aroused his interest and confidence.
The final sale, he emphasized, is
determined by the practical value
and service features of the product
itself, combined with the servicer's
proficiency in adapting and insuring
the service qualities of the product.
High pressure salesmanship, Fisk re-
iterated, is no longer an accepted
principle of good salesmanship.
The importance of university
training for the engineer was also
stressed by Fisk. The campus, he
repeated, is the place to begin study-
ing the problems of personal relation-
ships and the technical training real-
ized here is indispensible in later
positions.
