kmerican intervention in the present
war, Prof. Frederick L. Schuman of
Williams College, will discuss the
uestion "Can America Escape War?"
t 8 p.m. tomorrow in the lecture
tall of the Rackham Building.
Woodrow Wilson Professor of Gov-
rnment, Dr. Schuman is well known
as an authority on German govern-
ment, politics and diplomacy. He has
raveled extensively in Central Eur-
pe and his books "The Nazi Dic-
atorship" and "Germany Since 1918"
re considered standard works on
he subject.
Professor Schuman received his
doctor's degree from the University of
Chicago in 1927 and spent several
'ears there as an instructor in po-
itical science. He has been granted
he James-Rowe Fellowship of the
Academy of Political and Social
cience and in 1932 was appointed
Research Director of the Chicago
Rotary Club Survey Committee.
Latest of his books is "Night Over
Europe," an analysis of the various
teps in the diplomatic game that
ed to the outbreak of World War II,
will be released Monday.

Because they couldn't get dates for
tonight when they phoned a number
of coeds Tuesday Swift Tarbell., '42,
and Basil Dalton, '44, not daunted
in their quest for feminine com-
panionship, resolved that they would
prove to the campus that anmbition is
all that is needed to break down such
barriers."
They conceived the Iea of posting
boxes on bulletin boards throughout
the campus. On these boxes they at-
tached an explanatory note stating
that they wanted two good looking
girls to go out with them tonight.
They asked all who would accept
dates to drop a slip in the box which
gave their names, telephone numbers.
addresses, descriptions and any in-
cidental remarks.
Yesterday when the poll was com-
pleted Tarbell announced that he
and his pal Basil had gotten dates
for tonight and they had so many
names to spare that there was enough
to go around for the rest of the year.
But it seems that these lads are
not only enterprising but they are
generous towards their fellow men.
They will post the names of this
surplus femininity on the bulletin
board in the main lobby of the Union
for all who wish to avail themselves
of the opportunity.
Seriously applying themselves to
this vital task they conducted the
survey in a complete efficient man-
ner. One of the boys would get up
early at 7 a.m. and make a collection

of slips and then they would make
subsequent collections at 12:30 p.m.,
6:30 p.m. and 10 p.m. These times
were carefully decided so that no
one would see them.
There was also great circunspec-
tion taken in putting these boxes
up. They got boxes from local mer-
chants and then made the rounds
of bulletin boards with a specially
equipped kit of pencils, tacks, stamp-
ing machine and string. They
watched some boxes for a couple
of hours when they were afraid they
would be taken down.

word, meaning with some vigor is,
or so Goodman says, giving way to
more expressive phrases such as "sock
it" and "ride." "Scherzo," a fascinat-
ing word which used to pop up pret-
ty often, has, he claims, given way
to "medium bounce."
For musicians all over the world
the words, "con expression" meanI
"play with feeling." According to
Goodman, however, the more pictur-
esque term, "play with schmalz," or
"schmalzando," does a better job.

Campus Lifed y
li
Was Centered
. S
In Old LibraryR
By WILLIAM BAKERE
Back in the days before blush and
bustle disappeared from campus, and 14
Michigan maid still was coy, tradi- u
tion demanded-and librarian ex- -
hort-that Ed and Coed occupy dif-
ferent sides of study tables in the old
library.
The old library, with its twin tow-
ers, was the real center of the cam-
pus in those days. Not unlike a river
steamboat in shape, the building was
impressive with its many appendages.
In one tower was the old University
clock, in the other the famous chimes,
modelled after those of Jesus College,
England.
Chimes Herald Day
Twice a day, at 5:27 and 7:27, the
chimerical melodies rang out over
Ann Arbor, heralding the arrival and
departure of the day, and many a
sentimental undergraduate shed an
extra tear in his beer at the sound.
The -library, however, is best re-
membered for its whispering gallery,
a long, dark, low. room running
around the dome. The least whisper in
one end of the room could be heard
quite clearly anywhere in the room.,
Once, they say, a young lady from
Ypsilanti ventured to Ann Arbor on
a blind date. Standing at one end of
the room with her girl friend, she
whispered a few choice remarks about
her date for the evening. The hapless
fellow standing at the opposite room
heard-and only the blessed darkness
concealed his blushes,
First Library Building
The old library, with its ivy-cov-
ered walls, was the first of Michigan's
real library buildings. Michigan's
first library--all 12 volumes of it-
was kept in the Detroit home of C. C.
Trowbridge, secretary to the Board
of Regents. When it was moved to
Ann Arbor, it was shunted around
from building to building, until the
need for a separate library became
so imperative that in 1881 $100,000
was appropriated for that purpose.
The building was dedicated in 1883.
The old building withstood three
fires, and under the care of Byron A.
"Pa" Finney, '71, librarian, served
until 1915 when appropriations were
made for the present library. "Pa"
wasn't around to work in the new li-
brary, however, for in 1916 he re-
tired on a Carnegie pension.
One of the largest libraries in the
west, with its 250,000 volumes, the
old building is best remembered for
its many traditions-the whispering
gallery, the famous old chimes, and
"Pa" Finney.
