Capt. Davidson
To Open Series
Of Talks Today
NUOTC Read To Explain
Development, Purposes
OfNavyToEngineers
Opening the 1940-41 lecture series
on naval subjects, Capt. Lyal A. Da-
vidson, chairman of the Naval ROTC
department, will discuss "The Navy,
Its Past Development and Present
Purposes," at 4 p.m. today in Room
336 of the West Engineering Building.
Among the things which will be
considered are the evolution of vari-
ous ship types and ship characteriza-
tions as influenced by national pol-
icy. Captain Davidson will empha-
size the history of the American fleet
describing what the U.S. Navy was
like in the past.
Every male citizen in the Engi-
neering College will be admitted at
the address free of charge whether'
or not he has enrolled for the nine-
lecture course. Enrollment, which
must be made by application before
the second lecture on Nov. 26, is be-
ing conducted by the NROTC depart-
mbnt and Prof. L. A. Baier of the
naval architecture department.
Others who will present talks in
this series are Lieut. Commander
Wells L. Field and Lieut. Robie E.
Palmer of the NROTC and several
officers from the Bureau of Ships
and the Navy Department.
Co. K Leaves For Camp
Co. K of the Michigan National
Guard left Ann Arbor late yesterday
afternoon for Camp Beauregard
where they will begin a year of active
duty. The soldiers marched from the
Armory, where they went through a
brief induction process; down to the
depot. The unit was approved Tues-
day, by Maj. Merle Mitchell of the
125th infantry staff as ready for the
trip.

Drum Major Sherrill Owes

heredity and the six vitamins.
Just about the tallest drum major
Michigan has known, Sherrill would
never have tried out for his present
position except for the fact that Prof.
William D. Revelli, conductor of the
band, noticed his skyscraper aspects
in his sophomore year, and encour-
aged him to practice twirling the ba-
ton. He was even provided with a
baton to take to camp with him the
next summer.k
Heredity and vitamins enter into
the picture when Sherrill reveals that
the members of his family are also
tall, and that his own exceptional
height has no unnatural causes, since
the right foods and lots of it are ac-
countable.
One of the nicer phases of his job,
according to the drum major, is the
attention he gets from the female
contingent when he prances out in
full regalia before the grandstands.J

Hich-Hiker Implored
To Take Back His Coat
Some student apparently does not
want what belongs to him.
He has failed to answer a recently
published letter from a good-Samar-
itan motorist who wishes to return
a coat the student, believed to be a
senior in the Law School, left in his
car Sept. 12. The student, hitch-
hiking from Lansing to Ann Arbor,
was given a ride as far as Brighton
and evidently forgot the garment.
