Latvian Choir
Will Perform
Great Vespers
Austris Wihtol To Conduct
Greek Religious Service
Under Student Auspices
The Great Vespers to be held
March 27 at Hill Auditorium under
the auspices of the Interfraternity
Council and Panhellenic will repro-
duce the religious service of theI
Greek Orthodox Church.
The Latvian Singers, a group of
nationally-known litany choristers,
Will be assisted by two student choirs
in singing the religious music of more
than 154,000,000 worshippers in the
Baltic states and Russia.
The music they -will present has'
been translated and arranged by
Austris Wihtol. The Lord's Prayer
will be sung by the three groups in
complete darkness. The "Song of
Praise" is written to the music of
Vinogradov and arranged, by Wihtol.
The prayer music will be an ar-
rangement of traditional music sym-
bolizing the procession of the priests
into the audience. The practice
dates back to the days of early
Christian martyrdom when the priest
saw every worshipper face to face
before starting the service. This
was done to determine if spies were
present.
"Prayer for the Nation," a new
litany written by Wihtol, will be given
its first performance. The student
choirs will sing "The Creed," and the
"Hallelujah" led by the solo group.
Poster Exhibit Is Open
The poster art of Germany, Eng-
land, France and the United States
is represented in "A History of the
Modern Poster," now being exhibit-
ed by the Ann Arbor Art Association
in Alumni Memorial Hall. The exhi-
bition, which is open daily from 2 p.m.
to 5 p.m. is showing the works of
such famous artists as Toulouse-La-
tree, Cassandre, and Kauffer. It will,
continue until March 24.

Low-Cost Vacatio

Two inexpensive bus toursto points

Center . for students during Spring

Under the auspices of the Travel
3ureau of the Center, located in Room
18. of the foreign student building,
the trips will be arranged by two
rpembers of the Center's staff, Robert
Klinger and Charles Ochs. One-half

The trips ae planned to points of

hand of American institutions and
historical events, the directors point-

hock Is Bach-:
Which Means
Spring's Here
By DAVE LACHENBRUCH
One sure sign that Spring has come,
even if snow is falling, is that bock
beer has made its reappearance at
the downtown taverns.
But there seems to be general dis-
agreement among students as to what
bock beer actually is. In general ap-
pearance it's a much darker, mahog-
any colored brew, with a foam of a
light amber color. It has a slightly
sweeter taste and demonstrates its
superiority over regular beer by hav-
ing that indescribable "something,"
which can only be detected after six
or seven glasses.
But how is bock beer made? A
:owntown beerhall proprietor, one
who should know, explains that bock
contains, or should contain, more
malt, more alcohol and should be
aged longer than ordinary beer. "A
good bock," he maintains, "should
be aged about eight months."
The strength of bock, as compared
to the strength of regular beer, is
responsible for its name, he con-
tinues. it was so named because the
brew is "so strong it could knock
down a bock." The word bock, he
claimed is derived from Ziegenbock,
which is the German word for male
goat, or billygoat. This also ex-
plains the famous goat trademark
for all brands of bock beer.
However, another authority states
that the term bock beer is a corrupt
version of enbecker bier named for
the town of Einbeck in Germany,
where it was' first brewed.
The driver of a beer truck, asked
about the modern manufacture of
bock, commented, "Dat stuff's de
bunk. Dey just put more m'lasses
in it."

This division of the School of For-
estry and Conservation is situated
alongside the railroad tracks behind
the Victor Vaughan dormitories on
Catherine Street and is an old power
plant. Under the direction of Prof.
William Kynock its apparatus is de-
voted to the highly practical purpose
of training men for the wood indus-
tries.
Unique Laboratory
"It is one of the few University
laboratories of its kind in the coun-
try," Dr. Kynock declared. It is
equipped with a small commercial
drying kiln. Students are taught
how to manipulate the instruments
which control the temperature, hu-
midity, and circulation of the kiln
atmosphere. The drying of wood is
an essential process in wood manu-
facturing.
In another corner of the large
room which formerly contained the
University hospital's heating appara-
tus, is a miniature reproduction of a
pressure-wood preserving plant. This
mechanism is used both for wood
preserving and fire-retardant treat-
ment purposes.

Naturally in a laboratory of this
kind there are several research proj-
ects being conducted by graduate
students. Dr. Kynock himself com-
pleted an important investigation
into the properties of tropical woods
which has been since utilized in thej
wood-working industries.
One of the present research proj-
ects is a study of the possibility of
making laminated wood beams which
would enable the construction indus-
try to have wood beams many times
stronger per unit weight than any
which are used at the present.
