The Charles Bull Earle Memorial Fellowship of $400 a year and free tuition will be offered to students in the field of electrical engineering. The McMullen Graduate Scholar- ships may be held in any of the four general fields of civil, mechanical, electrical, or chemical engineering. Applications for these scholarships should be sent to the dean of the Graduate School of Cornell Univer- sity before March 1.

DEFENSE TAKES THE AIR By BERYL SHOENFIELD One of the better known of the University broadcasts this year has been the 9 a.m. Saturday "Youth in the News" program. News items furnish material for these half-hour dramatizations in which outstanding young Americans in the fields of government, educa- tion, defense, history and science are the principal characters. The sketch- es, written by University and exten- sion course students, have been direc- ted by Don Hargis, guest director at Morris Hall. Though Director David Owen's show, "Of Legal History," heard each Tuesday at 3 p.m. over WJR will have to make way for a new defense series during the second semester, it will be remembered as a highly successful program, for this is the second year that a series of this type was used. Ellie Terretta, Grad., creator of last year's legal series, also authored this semester's show. The scripts, writ- ten in conjunction with the Michigan State Bar Association, revealed the private lives of men famous in Eng- lish and American law courts, among them the stories of Henry II, Henry of Bracton, Edward Coke, John Mar- shall and Daniel Webster. The State Bar has a permanent library of "Log- ical History" recordings. Members of Prof. Waldo Abbot's radio script writing class (speech 187) have produced all of the plays for the "Heroes of Medicine" series, on the air each Thursday at 3 p.m. over WJR. Mr. David Owen, origin- ator of the "Jack Armstrong" and "Skippy" programs, has directed this series, which will be continued next semester, while Ray Gerson, '43, by virtue of his "mature voice" has done all the narrating.

Governor Predicts Congress Will Act WASIINGTON, Jan, 20. -. :P) - Governor Murray D. van Wagoner predicted today quick Congressional action which he hoped would ease Michigan's unemployment problem due to the war program. He said after conferences with de- fense officials and members of Con- gress that it was possible that Con- gress would approve by Feb. 1 an emergency appropriation of $300.- 000,000 requested by President Roose- Sel( for the care of workers jobless because of conversion of industries -- - from civilian to defense production.

Your Dime Contribution Means Victory Over Infantile Paralysis for only a39c "We believe that victory over in- fantile paralysis, most dreaded scourge of childhood; is possible," claimed Dr. Max Minor Peet, profes- sor of surgery and Chairman of the Committee on Education of the Na- tional Foundation for Infantile Par- alysis. "Our hopes are not based on senti- ment-the pull on our heart strings when we see a crippled child, but are built on hard scientific facts- new facts, new discoveries of the sci- entist whose work you have made possible through your support of the National Foundation for Infantile Paralysis. "Do not be disappointed when I state that no* cure, no no even a clue pointing in the direction of a cure, for paralysis has been developed. Such a possibility is, of course, always before us. Hundreds of experiments have already been made and thous- ands more will be undertaken in the hopes that some chemical combina- tion will be found which will render harmless the virus of poliomyelitis once it has entered the body." The results obtained in the treat- ment of the pneumonias, of strepto- coccus, staphycoccus, and gonococcus infections with the use of sulfa dugs suggests that these and related com- pounds might be used in the preven- tion or possible cure of virus diseases. So far over 100 compounds have been used, but with negative results. How- ever, there are still more, than 1000 yet to be tried. "A great advance was made," said Dr. Peet, "when a certain strain of the virus isolated from a child dying at Lansing produced infantile paral- ysis, not/alone in monkeys (whose ex- pense made extensive experimental work prohibitive), but in cotoon rats and in white mice. Now thousands of experiments with hundreds of complex chemical compounds cquld be made." Formerly, it was thought that the disease could only enter through the nose, but recent experiments have shown that the virus can enter the central nervous system by way of the alimentary tract. This summer brought definite proof that the virus may be carried by the common house fly. Flies collected in a number of communities were found to carry the disease. The virus has now been found in the stools of patients suf- fering from the disease, and also of apparently normal children and adults and in sewage. "Thus the possibility of combating poliomyelitis by public health mea- sures, as has beendone for typhoid, seems reasonable," Dr. Peet con- cluded. Future English Written specifically for future English teachers and incorporating the most highly recommended study methods and material arrangement, the new textbook of Prof. Albert H. Marckwardt of the English depart- ment, has recently been published and adopted for use on this campus. The text, entitled, "Introduction to the English Language," is for stu- dents in the third and fourth years, of college and is written in such a style as to be readily adaptable to whatever amount of time allowed for its study. Professor Marckwardt says that the book is not intended as an orig- inal contribution to present linguis- tic knowledge. "It is designed, rather, to present on a college classroom level a synthesis of the most important re- sults of linguistic investigation and grammatical speculation," says the author. The material in the text is ar- ranged in an unusual manner but with a definite purpose in view. In- stead of starting with ancient Eng- lish and proceeding to modern, Pro- fessor Marckwardt reverses the order and presents the study of modern grammar first.
