Technic Issue
To Go On Sale
Here Tuesday
Bailey Article On Utilities
Industry To Be Featured;
Editorial Discusses Draft
Highlighting the second issue of
the Michigan Technic, which will go
on sale Tuesday, is an article by Prof.
Benjamin Bailey of the electrical en-
gineering department on the early
developments of the utilities industry
in the United States.
Entitled "From Arc Lights On,"
the story is written autobiographic-
ally and describes Professor Bailey's
experiences in helping to solve the
problems of the electric companies
during the late 1800's and the early
part of the 20th century.
The editorial for this issue is "Stay
Behind the Plow" which deals with
the position of the engineering stu-.
dent during conscription. According
to the members of the Technic staff,
the technical man (and the techni-
cian in training) are too valuable
to defense to become members of
combat units and that all of them
should be exempted from the draft.
Other articles which have been
included in the magazine are "Tires
and War" by Charles R. Tieman,
'41E; "Lubrication: Science" by Ar-
thur W. C. Dobson, '42E, and "Inter-
collegiate Flying" by Leslie J. Trigg,
'41E, and Edward T. Martin, '41E.

Group To Hold
First Debate
Sigma Rho Tau, honorary engin-
eering speech society, will hold the
first of a series of eight intercolleg-;
iate debates with Wayne University
at 8:15 p.m. Tuesday in the Union
on the topic: "Resolved: That a Canal
Should Be Built Across Nicaraugua."
In the debate the Stump Speakers'
Society plans to discuss the feasibility
of the canal as an engineering pro-
ject, the importance it might have
in national defense, the economic aid
it will afford the United States and
its importance in uniting the Ameri-
cas.
The four students who will uphold
the affirmative for Michigan are Dean
Woodbury, '42E, Edward Rutan, '43E,
Alexander Pentland, '42E, and John
Hammelef, '42E.
The style of debate used by Sigma
Rho Tau is different from that used
for ordinary college or high school
debating, being much less formal and
approximating business conferences.
