To Hold Drive
iere Saturday
Proceeds from the annual Tag Day
to be held Saturday by the Women's

patients at University Hospital and
St. Joseph's Mercy Hospital, Mrs.
H. Marvin Pollard, vice commander

Of the money collected last year,
Mrs. Pollard added, $275 was given

symptoms of the disease.
Mrs. Philip McCallum is captain

By GEORGE SALLADE
With spring vacation gone with the
wind forrmost schools and the stretch
drive for this semester staring it in
the face, the Big Ten tried every-
thing this week to divert its mind for
academic interests.
Wisconsin, Indiana and Minne-
sota were having their political
troubles. Wisconsin was electing
its £tident board members while
Indiana was at work on the Union
Board. Minnesota is also electing
Union Board members. The Go-
phers are in the midst of a little
eon fusion, however.
It all involves some jurisdictional
dispute, too. It appears some of the

Research C LQ
To Meet Today
At Rackham
Bates, Willard To Read
Papers On Well-Known
Jurist, Scientist Today
To Be 40thMeeting
Michigan men and women prom-
inent in the field of scientific re-
search will gather at 8 p.m. today in
I the Rackham Amphitheatre for the
40th annual memorial meeting of the
Research Club.
Two members of the Michigan fac-
ulty - Dean Emeritus Henry M.
Bates and Prof. Hobart H. Willard
- will read papers paying tribute to
two historical figures great in the
field of research.
Dean Emeritus Bates will speak on
the late Justice Oliver Wendell
Holmes, who was born in 1841, while
Prof. Willard, of the chemistry de-
partment, will similarly commem-
orate Robert Boyle, British natural
philosopher and discoverer of Boyle's
Law, who died 250 years ago this
month.
The papers will be read before the
assembled group of the three cam-
pus research clubs - The Senior
Research Club, The Women's Re-
search Club and the Junior Research
Club, composed of younger instruc-
tors and graduate students. Dr. A.
Franklin Scbull, of the zoology de-
partment, and president of the Re-
search Club, will be in charge of the
meeting.
An informal discussion period will
follow the readings. Students or
townspeople interested in attending
.the meeting may secure special invi-
tations from Prof. Schull.
All three research clubs are for-
feiting their April gatherings for to-
day's memorial meeting, echull said.

Interviews Today

Students enrolled in ,the Degree
Program for Honors in Liberal Arts
are being offered an opportunity to
pursue specialized study from origi-
nal source materials.
For example, one of the first docu-
ments studied is an Egyptian manu-
script written about 2500 B.C. Anoth-
er early writer, Hippocrates, who
lived about 500 B.C., is studied by the
'group, and compared with the Egyp-
tian writer, with a critical eye to the
progress made in the centuries be-
tween the two.
Approaching the question of the
scientific attitude from another angle,
the group read works on magic and
on religion, and attempted to dis-
tinguish the attitudes exhibited in
these from what is considered the
scientific attitude.
When this material is read directly
from the original writer, one of the
students said, it is felt much more
has been accomplished than when the
facts are obtained second-hand out of
a text, and parroted back on a blue-
book. Here one gets the only real
opportunity to think, she comment-
ed, that she has found in college.
This year's senior tutorial group

in science, which is under Prof. By-
ron Soule, is continuing the work they
began last year, when the develop-
ment of scientific progress was traced
through to Newton. The group has
done a work especially in the physi-
cal sciences this semester, according
to Karl Kessler, '41.
Typical research projects include.
such studies as tracking, down the
evolution of theories of matter, with
accompanying study of the person-
alities of the men involved. Although
the work is primarily a study of the-
oretical science, the group does put its
work into practice, even rigging up1
simple experiments, such as an ex-
periment to illustrate Faraday's laws
of electrolysis.
In their senior year the students
enrolled in these groups write a sen-
ior thesis, on some subject chosen
by themselves and approved by their
tutor. These are read by the board of
tutors, and other faculty members.
At the end of two years, the tutors
recommend those of their students
whom they think should graduate
from the Degree Program with hon-
ors.
