Turkey's Part
To Be Subjeet
Of Talk Here
McDowell, Archaeologist,,
To Give Lecture Sunday
For Aid To Allies Group
"Turkey's Part in the Present
Struggle" will be discussed by Dr.
Robert H. McDowell, research associ-
ate in Mesopotamian Archaeology, in
a public lecture at 4 p.m. Sunday in
the lecture hall of the Rackham
Building.
. The talk, which is sponsored by the
Ann Arbor chapter of the William
Allen White Committee to Defend
America by Aiding the Allies, will
deal with the position of Turkey dur-
ing the present European conflict and
the part the country may play during
the post-war period.
Dr.. McDowell also plans to discuss
his viewsDon whether or not Turkey
wil go to war and upon what con-
siderations she will make her decis-
ion.
-Connected with the archaeological
activities of the University in the
Near East since 1928, Dr. McDowell
was born in the Near East, the son
of American missionaries to Persia.
In 1916 Dr. McDowell did war relief
work in Iran, the Caucasus and Tur-
key and during 1917 and 1918 he in-
terrupted this work for enlistment
in the British Military Intelligence
Service with duty in these same areas.
His particular field of interest is the
economic history of both the ancient
and modern Near East.

search society, include Reed Varner,
'41F&C, president; Boyd Walker,
Grad,, vice-president; Frances E.

Big Ten
Highlights -
The Big Ten was jolted out of a
premature case of spring fever by
a return of Old Man Winter and i
that first blue book this week, but
survived the shock to continue at
I round of whirlwind events.
The University of Illinois stu-
dent body is still having troublet
with that new Union building. Re-
cently dedicated, the building isj
now enta ngled in. a row betweenl
the Den's:League and it sown
Union officials over funds takent
in at dances held at the Unioni
and sponsored by the Men's
League. The Men's League wantsl
to put the profits into a specialj
fund and Union officials want them
to b, onut back into the building.
Over at Ohio State there is another
dispute over the "root of all evil."
It appears that Romosphos, sopho-
more men's honorary society, pocket-
ed the money gained from conces-
sions at the sophomore prom and
was criticized. Romosphos' action
was approved by the Student Senate,
however. The Musian's union at
Columbus is also in the spotlight
with its demands for a "closed shop"
at all university functions.
The Northwestern student gov-
ernment reorganization was balked
this week when the junior class
refused to reorganize. The new
plan calls for an abandonment :
of all class commissions and the
juniors just won't abandon theirs.
1-eadlines were also made at the
Wildcat campus when it was
learned that for the first time the'
fummer Northwestern Daily will
be run by the journalism school.
The Wisconsin student election
wasn't much of an election. Seven
students were installed in office be-
cause of lack of opposition. The
election decided exactly six offices.
Campus interest was being shown,
however, in the Engineering Show
' with its 100 student and 25 indus-
trial exhibits which will come off
soon.

Congress can do about it except de-

It was Admiral Stirling's conten-
tion that eventually we will have to
come to grips with Hitler; therefore it
is better to fight and defeat Hitler on
foreign soil and make use of the fact
that England is still an ally and still
hitting back at Hitler.
inder the Neutrality Act of 1935
the President has the power of defin-
ing combat limits and at that time
included Great Britain in that area.
But, Stirling pointed out, if President
Roosevelt deems it important to the
defense of this, country, he can re-
define those limits and permit Ameri-
can vessels to bring war materials
into British harbors.
After all, he asked, why take that
much of our time in preparing these
vital materials, if we are going to
stand by' and watch them go down
to Davey Jones locker where they will
be of value to no one?

believes, and now holds the advantage
in the East, since the United States
has no navalsbases, that are useful,
in that area.
He advised staying out of military
involvement for the present time and
directing our attention to the Atlan-
tic Ocean, where "the citadels of the
British Empire are located." We must
send help to Britain, he emphasized,
and at the present rate of defense
production, we cannot afford to do
both that and to fight in the East.
Stirling described the bases leased
us by Britain through the destroyer
deal as -valuable fortifications, but
without real importance because we
have too few destroyers.

were cited by Stirling as strategic!
points at present. Hawaii is a "life-
line" to this country, according to the
Admiral, and the great number of
Japanese in those islands are a "men-
ace to our navy." The day may come,
he added, when it will be necessary
to transport the Japanese from thej
Hawaiian Islands.I
Alaska is another vital spot in this
continent, according to Stirling, who
warned that the Aleutian Islands
form an important bridge to this ter-
ritory. "We must watch for air raids
directed through Alaska," he empha-
sized.

on a program of civil fingerprinting
recently introduced at several uni-
versities and colleges in the country.'
Independent of the Criminal Iden-
tification Bureau, the fingerprintI
records will be placed in the Personal
Identification Bureau.
IBenefits of civil fingerprinting were
explained by letters to the fraternity
from J. Edgar Hoover, head of the
FBI, who cited that last year 200,-
000 persons were declared missing,
and over 2,000 deceased persons were
buried without final identification,
because of the lack of civilian finger-
printing records. He especially cited
the great number of amnesia cases
which have been solved by the use
of the Personal Identification Bureau.
Art Exhibition Continues

Sstudies in the graduate field. Any
woman; with an A.B. degree from a
Irecognized College or University is
eligible to apply. A graduate from
the University of Michigan may use
the award on any campus of her
choice, but a graduate of any other
College or University must continue
der work at Michigan. Applications
are available at the office of the Dean

The talk is to take the form of an

Two sLRvIct s of the Bell System contribute importantly
to the speed of news-gathering. Those aro the telephone
and the teletypewriter. Practically every daily newspaper
has its "teletype," over which it receives by wire news dis-
patches in /yiewril/en formii. Stories placed on the "tele-
type" in New York, for example, by one of the press
associations are transnitted instantly and simultaneously
to teletypewriters in major "distributing" points through-
out the country. From those points the news is re-dis-
tributed by teletypewriter to dailies within a certain radius.
For example, New York dispatches received in Detroit are
re-transmitted by teletypewriter to dailies throughout
Michigan.
AN DI NO 1.JSS ]'O I ANT to the newspapers is the tele-
phone. Much local news comes direct to the papers by
telephone. Reporters telephone their stories to their edi-
tors. City papers call outstate correspondents, and country
editors call news sources for items. Classified advertising
departments depend to a very great extent on the tele-
phtone for obtaining advertisements.
