National Honorary Boy Scout Society Does Many Services By GEORGE W. SALLADE Known to most students in the University for "keep off the grass" fame, Alpha Phi Omega, rational honorary fraternity for former boy scouts, performs many useful services for both the university and the com- munity. Orfganized nationally as a service group with 96 chapters, Alpha Phi Omega chooses its members from former boy scouts with the same pro- cedures employed by the social frat- ernities. The local chapter has 27 members, most of whom have been eagle scouts or scout leaders. Formerly installed in the national organization only last year, the Mich- igan Alpha Phi Omega has already established a record for beneficial services. Most familiar, of course, is the society's, annual "keep off the grass" campaign. This campaign was first conducted to fulfill the require- ments for admission to the national organization. Last spring Alpha Phi Omega co- operated with the FBI in finger- printing university students forthe civilian files of that government agency. More than 800 students were, fingerprinted. Althought not so highly publicized, other services are performed by the honorary fraternity. Magazines are gathered for the patients in the Health Service, and Alpha Phi Omega members aid the authorities there by delivering Iradios or books to stu- derdts who request them. 4 The society also participates in the Union guide service and last spring took part in a tree-planting project at the boy scout camp, Oamp New- kirk, near Dexter. Richard G. Schoel, Jr., '43E, is president of Alpha Phi Omega. Other officers are Robert E. Cope, '42E, George D. Meier, '42F&C, and Alex Yorman, '42F.

Sherlock; of the civil engineering de- partment, coordinator of the ESMDT courses at the University. Financed by the United States Of- fice of Education and given by the College of Engineering through the University Extension Service, the 29 training courses have a combined to- tal enrollment of about 900 at the end of this first week. Largest Enrollment Largest enrollment for - any one course is about 200, that number hav- ing afready signed up for a course in Ordnance Inspection to be opened Oct. -29 by Prof. O. W. Boston of the metal processing department. It may even be necessary to open a second section of 200 when final enrollment figures are known, Professor Sher- lock stated. Of the 29 courses offered, only one is being presented in Ann Arbor, five being held in Jackson, one in Wayne and the remaining 22 in Detroit. One of the Detroit courses was cancelled when the instructor was called to government service. Conduct Courses Conducting the Arn Arbor course, advanced and basic sections in mech- anical drawing, are Prof. D. E. Ho- bart and Prof. Maurice Eichelberger of the mechanical drawing depart-, ment, respectively. Ohief difference between the men enrolled now and those who took the summer courses, Professor Sherlock noted, is a more mature average age and a higher average educational background. Of 21 men enrolled in one course, 19 had at least one college degree. Industrial men aidihg in the in- struction of the courses are R. F. Thomson, of t~le Crysler aircraft di- vision; W. H. Witheridge, chief in- dustrial hygienist with the Detroit' Board of Health; L. V. Qarrity, chieT engineer with the Detroit Water Board; W. C. Hirn, of Pate and Hirn, consulting engineers, and G. W. Bach- man, designing electrical engineer for Commonwealth and Southern. Must FihUsh Two Years Open to men interested in engi- neering who have completed at least two years of college work, the courses, will run for a period of eight weeks, meeting two nights each week for a; period of two hours. 'Intended to berthe first of three such programs, the present series will, be followed by a second stkrting about, the first of next year and#a third to start late in the spring. At thole, times the list of courses offered will, be revised to meet current needs.

Wendt, language counsellor of women's dormitories, and are sponsored by Miss Alice C. Lloyd, Dean of Women. On November 4 a German tea will be given and on November 18, a Spanish tea. Ble Important Defense Program pal fire, police, engineering, and health departments besides establish- ing services needed for emergency activity. Special training will be given to city police, sheriff's offices,, indus- trial night watchmen and volunteer fire fighting units, according to the council'sk Lansing headquarters. Planned to consider "the hazards of transportation surrounding a stricken area," an advisory group of technical experts will be created to examine public utilities, gas lines, water mains, bridges and other vital municipal services. The program, as laid doivn by the council, encompasses all possible exi- gencies. Training will be given toy "ham" radio men, auxiliary telephone operators- and. any other groups fit to aid in emergency communication and transportation establishment. , The after-effects of disaster have also been taken into account. Aux- iliary groups will be formed to pro- vide food for homneless victims, and such miscellaneous services as miss- ing persons bureaus or messengers will be trained. In its latest report on Michigan's current steel shortage, the council stressed that "people are riot asked to give their iron and steel scrap." The metal will be sold at Washington- determined prices with a new prior- ity assuring its use in defense work. Oberlin Chemist Harry M. Holmes To TalkTuesday Dr. Harry M. Holmes, chairman of the chemistry department of Oberlin University, will deliver a University Lecture on "A Chemist's Adventures in Medicine" at 4:15 p.m. Tuesday in Room 303 Chemistry Building. Dr. Holmes, who has the reputation of being able to put technical or semi-technical subjects across so that those with only slight knowledge in the field can understand, is perhaps as well known among his colleagues as any other present-day chemist. He is president-elect of the American Chemical Society, and has held an office in the society since 1914. His work has centered largely around problems in colloid chemistry and bio-chemistry, and he was among the foremost men in the isolation of crys- talline vitamin A. His talk will be a discussion of his work in bio-chemistry, with em- phasis upon the vitamin A, in partic- ular. -By way of introduction, Dr. Holmes will show how, like. Pasteur, he entered into a "reckless" bio- chemical investigation-that of vita- mins-without any previous training in bio-chemistry.
