Chapman Talk
Will Feature
Animal Shots
Known for his intimate pictures of
wild animals, Wendell Chapman will
show moving pictures and close-ups
stills of the wild-animals of Canada,
the United States and Mexico when
he appears here Jan. 21 in the Ora-
torical Association Lecture Series.
So remarkable were his pictures
that a Hollywood producer, upon
seeing them, offered the Chapmans
a contract for taking moving pic-
tures. The producers, being more in-
terested in dramatic effects than in
the true portrayal of the animals,
planned to provide asistants to drive
or capture the animals.
Since the Chapmans were not in-
terested in staged pictures, but only
in natural actions, they refused the
offer and took pictures for themselves
as records of what they saw in na-
ture. As a result, they have brought
back intimate records of some of our
rarest native animals as they go
about their work and play in their
wild state.
Some years ago Chapman retired
from the bond business, and with
his wife, went to the Rocky Moun-
tains of the United States and Cana-
da. There they remained, winter and
summer, observing and photograph-
ing the native animals. Their ability
to gain the confidence of timid, wild
creatures has resulted in remarkably
intimate pictorial records.
Chapman is ;co-author with his
wife of three recent books, "The Lit-
tle Wolf," "Beaver Pioneers," and
"Wilderness Wanderers."
Rev. J. O'Mara
To Speak Here
Will Address Catholic Law
Student Supper In Union
More than 85 Catholic law students
will hold the first in the series of
meetings at 6:15 p.m. tomorrow in the'
Union to hear Rev. James O'Mara,
archdiocisen secretary of Catholic
charities speak following supper.
John Cummisky, '41L, heads a com-
mittee of six representing each of
the law classes which will arrange
monthly meetings of the group to
discuss legal-ethical problems.
Any Catholic law student is invit-
ed to affiliate with the group. This
interest group is similar to the group
of Catholic medical 'students who are
following a similar plan of study and
cooperation.
Reservation should be made for the
supper meetings at St. Mary's Stu-
dent parish or with Father Berry.
Further information concerning the
program and conduct of the meet-
ings may be obtained from the com-
mittee in charge.

Pacifist Status
Is Described
BySwomley
Conscientious objectors who con-
tinue refusing to enter military ser-
vice even after their plea has been
denied by an appeal board will be
considered felons and as such will
lose their citizenship rights, John
Swomley, national youth secretary of
the Fellowship of Reconciliation, in-
ternational pacifist organization, re-
vealed in an interview yesterday.
Swomley, who counselled with con-
scientious objectors while -in Ann
Arbor this week, pointed out that
men must give positive proof that
they are C. O.'s. One problem brought
to him by people intending to regis-
ter as pacifists is of what will hap-
pen to their families, The govern-
ment has not yet made provision
for them.
In contrast to our law, Swomley
remarked that the English law is
much more liberal, and exempts
C. O.'s from any kind of compulsory
service. He attributes this to "a
more militaristic and less democratic
Administration here than the Parlia-
ment in England. The President has
not gone even so far as the British
in dealing democratically with con-
scientious objectors."
C. O.'s in England, Swomley said,
are ministering to the injured, aid-
ing unemployed, reconstructing dam-
aged places and helping in the re-
lief of war victims.
The Fellowship, he added, is still
working on its program of pacifist
action which is concerned in large
part with advocating a policy of ac-
tive non-resistance, like Gandhi's.

Ski Club Plans Meeting
The University of Michigan Ski
Club will meet at 7:30 p.m. today
in Room 305 at the Union, Bob Lew-
is, Grad., announced yesterday.
Sunday will be the Oxford High
School Band, with Kenneth O. Bo-
vee conducting.
More than 300 band and orchestra
directors from high schools and col-
leges throughout the country will at-
I tend the clinic, which is being spon-
sored by the University School of
Music and the Michigan Band and
Orchestra Association. Guest con-
ductor will be Carlton. L. Stewart
of Mason City, Iowa.
Morton Gould, noted New York
composer, will also attend the clinic,
since he has professed his interest
in the convention's purpose - the
acquainting of music groups with
the latest in band and orchestra
numbers. Originated here four
years ago by Professor Revelli, the
clinic has grown in size. and im-
portance.
During the. two-day convention,
the University Concert Band, con-
ducted by Professor Revelli, will play
selections from the National High
School Festival -required list for 1941.
Thor Johnson, assistant professor of
music literature, will conduct the
University Symphony orchestra in
music from the required list for or-
chestras. In this way visiting direc-
tors will be given the opportunity to
select the year's repertoire for their
respective groups.
Youth Crime
On Increase
In ..nn Arbor
There has been a definite increae
in juvenile delinquency in Ann Ar-
bor within the last few years ac-
cording to Patrolman George Camp,
the juvenile police officer who re-
tired from the force Monday.
Because of departmental policy he
could not disclose the figures on the
problem. Contrary to the situation in
most other cities. Camp pointed out.
juvenile delinquency here is not con-
centrated in any particular neighbor-
hood or among any special income
class.
"The basis for this type of delin-
quency in most cases, he declared, are
home conditions. Disturbed family
relationships like divorce or one of
the parents remarrying or both par-
ents working seem to furnish an en-
vironment that produces these juve-
nile problems."
Camp advocates reforms which he
believes can do much to improve the
situation. One evil is the lack of ac-
tivity for youth's abundant energy.
During school vacation periods one
can usually expect an ipcrease in juv-
enile crime, he said. Therefore, he
urges a great extension of supervised
recreational facilities in this com-
munity.
Another idea he suggests is that
the county should appoint a special
juvenile officer to investigate and
supervise this type of work through-
out the country. The present social
agency that deals with the problem
is too overworked with other things
to be able to give adequate attention
to juvenile delinquecy, he asserted.
