Aide] In Construelion
Of Panama, So o L eks
Joseph Ripley, '76E, international-

after an illness of more than two
years.
Mr. Ripley, who was born Jan. 3,
1854, in St. Clair, was graduated
from the University's department of
civil engineering. He was granted
an honorary M.E. degree by the Uni-
versity in 1911, in recognition of his
outstanding professional work.
His positions included government
work at the Sault Ste. Marie locks,
where he served as assistant govern-
ment engineer and as superintend-
ent, working on design of dams and
locks. Mr. Ripley served on the ad-
visory board of engineers for the

China from 1918 to 1920 and re-

Biggins Wins
Historic Grant
American Indian Award
Dates From 1817 Pact
Arthur L. Biggins, '42, of Pocatello,
Ida., was recently reawarded a schol-
arship which has a history dating
back to a treaty signed by Michigan
Indians and white settlers in 1817,
at Fort Meigs.
Involved among the clauses of the
treaty was a grant of three sections
of land to the Catholepistemiad, a
school that later became the Uni-
versity.
It was in commemoration of this
gift, the first received by the school,
rather than of the bloody fighting
ended by the treaty, that the Board
of Regents authorized scholarships
covering tuition for "five persons
recommended by the U.S. Bureau of
Indian Affairs" a few years ago.
Biggins, Who held the American
Indian scholarship during his first
two years in the University, is now
the only American Indian scholar.
During his freshman and sophomore
years hendid outstandinghacademic
work, standing high in all his classes.

Three Faculty
Choices Made
Among the new faces on the fac-
ulty roster of the School of Educa-
ton are William Woods. Dr. J. D.
Barnard, and Dr. Virgil E. Herrick
who will serve as lecturers in edu-
cation and consultants in the W. K.
Kellogg Foundation projects in the
state for community education.
Formerly assistant dean of men at
Northern State Teachers College of
Deenton, Texas, Mr. Woods and Dr.
Barnard formerly of New York Uni-
versity and Colorado State Teachers
College will work in secondary edu-
cation while Dr. Herrick will spec-
ialize in elementary education.
Dr. Randolf Webster, long a mem-
ber of the physical education depart-
ment has resigned to accept an as-
sistant professorship at West Vir-
ginia University. Dr. Leon Wakiewicz,
last year a lecturerin education, has
received an appointment

Berlin; Count Galeazzo Ciano, Italian foreign minister; Adolf Hitler; Joachim Von Ribbentrop.

A new army and navy ROTC ar-
mory is expected to resound with the
sound of marching feet and shouted
commands when the University opens
for the 1941-42 school year next Sep-
tember, according to Prof. Lewis M.
Gram of the civil engineering de-
partment, who heads the faculty ad-
visory committee to the military sci-
ence department.
Members of the committee are
working with the professors of mili-
tary and naval science and tactics
and buildings and ground depart-
ment workers to complete plans and
cost estimates for the building. Upon
their completion, specifications will
be sent to the war department with
a request for the building.
Preliminary estimates place the
building's cost at "anywhere from
$500,000 to $1,000,000," Professor
Gram said yesterday. Inspections of
the Michigan State College ROTC
armory in East Lansing and the naval
reserve armory in Detroit have
shown University officials that a

building at least 125 by 250 feet in
ground area will be needed to house
the ROTC here.
Among the sites under considera-
tion for location of the armory is a
tract on Washington Street between
the Health Service and the Uni-
versity laundry building.
The armory's facilities, Professor
Gram said, would include offices,
class rooms, drill floors, a rifle range,
an arsenal and a magazine for stor-
age of ammunition. All activities
of both military and naval training
units of the University would be
housed in the building, according to
present plans of the committee.
Announcement of planning work
on the projected armory came last
week, with a statement by President
Ruthven to the effect that present
housing facilities of the ROTC had
long been inadequate. This year's in-
creased enrollment in military train-
ing and the advent of naval work, he
said, necessitate a decided increase
in housing faciilties.
