lire Fighters Attend Classes
Between Calls,_ChiefReports
Ann Arbor
The popular notion that all a
fireman does when he is not pouring
water on a fire is sit around the
station and play checkers certainly
does not describe the Ann Arbor fire
department, according to Fire Chief
Benjamin Zahn.
The men in his department, he ex-
plained, in addition to their regular
duty of responding to calls for as-
sistance, are going through a con-
tinuous educational training so that
they may become better firemen.
Twice a week the men on each shift
attend a fire school held in the sta-
tion. Using the conference method
the men study a wide variety of sub-
jects all of which Chief Zahn be-
lieves is necessary for their work.
First every man must know the lo-
cation of every street in the city and
where each of Ann Arbor's 435 fire
plugs is situated. They learn pub-
lic speaking so that they may educate
the public on fire prevention. They
study the use of fire tools, the dif-
ferent methods of fighting all types
of fires, building construction, hy-
draulic principles that apply to their
work, the safest and most efficient
way to use certain chemicals
In order to become better acquaint-
ed with the area they are to protect,
every fall and spring men from the
department examine all business es-
tablishments in town.

Highlights...
Campus surveys released recently
received much attention around the
Big Ten this week as activities les-
sened before Christmas vacation.
A survey at the University of In-
diana of the number of failure slips
received by university women
showed a marked decrease in the
average number of hours for each
student over the record of last.
year. Sorority pledges had an in-
crease from 3.04 hours average to
3.20 for each student. An average
of 1.5 hours of "smoke-ups," the
Indiana name for failure slips, were.
sent to upperclass sorority women
while women living in the dormi-
tories received an average of only
.94.
The University of Purdue an-
nounced a new Aeronautical Engin-
eering Curriculum this week. Only
majors who have completed four
years of work in civil, electrical, me-
chanical and metallurgical engineer-
ing will be admitted to the course.
The fifth year will be devoted to aero-
nautical structure, airplane power,
research in meteorology, stress anal-
ysis, and airplane engines.
An interesting poll was released
this week by the Student Opinion
Surveys. It was a national tabula-
tion of the percentage of students
who cut classes and the number
they cut. It was found that 62
per cent attended all their classes,
although last February 64 per cent
said compulsory class attendance
should be abolished, and 38 per cent
cut at least once. Southerners had
the highest percentage of students
cutting at least once (57) while New
Englanders cut the least, only about
25 per cent missing one or more
classes a week.
Note from the Exchanges:
The Chicago Daily Maroon is send-
ing the most glamorous man and
woman on the campus to the Mardi
Gras, expenses paid.

One word describes all three:
CLEAN! "
"My spic-and-span kitchen is something I don't take
for granted. Much of its attractiveness and cleanli-
ness is due to electric servants ... electric lighting,
electric cooking, electric water heating. I often won-
der what the room would be like without them.
"Thanks to these three helpers, I can work in clean,
pleasant surroundings, under soft light that is easy on
the eyes. I can cook dinner by flipping a switch and
setting a clock. I can have plenty of hot water for
dishes or housecleaning by simply turning a faucet.
"Yes, electricity DOES things in a home ... and 1
thank my lucky stars that I have these faithful ser-
vants working for me every day of the year at such
small cost."
Why not learn how thriftily YOU can employ more
electrical helpers? Automatic electric water heating
costs less than 10c a day for an average family of
three. Electric cooking for the same family averages
$1.55 a month. Put these labor-saving electric servants
to work in your household! ... The Detroit Edison Co.
