Interfraternity
Campus Sing'
Will Be May 4
Final Contest Will Be Held
On Main Library Steps;
Cups To Be Presented
Fraternities are urged to get their
pianos tuned and their voices in
shape, because the seventh annual
Interfraternity Sing is scheduled for
Monday, May 4.
This year as before, finals will be
held on the steps of the main library.
Three cups will be awarded plus a
rotating cup which the winner also
receives.
Eliminations will be held Thurs-
day, April 30, in the Union. James
Weinstein, '44, in charge of publicity,
pointed out that houses must re-
member to keep the volume of their
voices down because the room at the
Union is small. Last year several
fraternities ran into difficulty as
they sang too loudly for the size of
the room.
Contestants are not held down to
singing only fraternity songs. "Out-
side" songs are equally acceptable;
Last year's winner, Kappa Sigma,
received the first place award sing-
ing "All Through the Night."
Each fraternity entered will have a
sorority backer to cheer them on with
planned and spontaneous noises.
Details of the contest, such as the
exact time, and the naming of the
person to present the awards have
not been announced, but participants
and spectators of last year's Sing will
doubtlessly recall that Miss Lynn
Kendall, blonde actress in "The Sky-
lark," added a touch to the occasion.

Books Hayden
Political Scientist To Talk
At BanquetApril 23
Prof. Joseph R. Hayden, chairman
of the Department of Political Sci-
ence, will return from Washington to
be the speaker at the Phi Kappa
Phi initiation dinner, to be held
Thursday, April 23, in the Michigan
League Ballroom.
He has chosen "Portents of the
East" as his discussion topic.
At present in the office of the
Coordinator of Information in Wash-
ington, Professor Hayden is on leave
for the year 1941-42 from the Uni-
versity. On previous leaves from the
University he taught as an exchange
professor in the Philippine Islands,
in 1922-23, and as a Carnegie visit-
ing professor in 1930-31, During
these periods in the Islands he was
a special correspondent for the Chris-
tian Science Monitor, as well as in
1926.
From 1933 to 1935 he held the office
of vice-governor of the Philippine
Islands. Drawing on his extensive
knowledge of the Philippines and
of the Far East, Professor Hayden
has written a number of books and
articles on the Islands. His latest,
published this year, is "The Philip-
pines: A Study in National Develop-
ment."
After the dinner, the ballroom will
be opened to the general public for
Professor Hayden's speech.
Coast Guard On Alert
ST. LOUIS, April 14.-(P)-The
United States Coast Guard isn't tak-
ing any chances, even with a Negro
sharecropper's story of seeing an Axis
submarine in the Mississippi River

near Cairo, Ill. The Negro, living in
southeast Missouri, said he boarded
the craft and talked to the crew. Two
Coast Guard cutters were sent to
investigate. Then the sharecropper
admitted the story was untrue.

Honor Work

Flew' Fortress' From JavaI

Applcations
May Be Filed
Students intending to enroll in the
University Honors Program will be
able to file applications and gain fur-
ther information on the program
every Monday, Wednesday and Fri-
day from 3 p.m. to 4:30 p.m. in
Room 1204 Angell Hall until the May
1 deadline.
Sophomores with a B average are
eligible for this course of study which
was inaugurated four years ago by
the University as a major education-
al experiment. Covering the fields of
science, social science and literature,
the program will admit approximate-
ly 40 students.
Tutor Board
Honors work, which involves five
credit hours per semester and re-
places the traditional concentration
program, is given under an eight-man
board of tutors headed by Dr. John
Arthos of the English department.
Five groups now offered to juniors
will be carried over into next year
for the same students.
Illustrative of Honors Program is'
the group studying "The Transition
from Feudal Individualism to Capi-
talism and the Trend Toward Col-
lectivism." Prof. H. B. Calderwood
of the political science department
is tutor for this group.
Three students under Professor
Calderwood have been following a
year's study of the ideas and insti-
tutions which have formed the basis
of society's organization since the
period of feudalism. Religious, poli-
tical, social and economical aspects
of this subject are taken up in read-
ings and weekly discussions.
Thinking Analyzed
This particular group covers nearly
half a millenium as it analyzes the'
trends in society's thinking up to the
present day. According to Profes-
sor Calderwood the group is given,
work which is not handled by any
University department in a specific
course.
In addition to its one-year length,
an honors group also differs from
the regulation University course in
the nature of its examinations. Pro-
fessor Calderwood, for example, has
given one written final examination
and probably will employ an oral one
at the end of this semester.
One of the main purposes of the
Honors Program is to lessen the dan-
ger of ultra-practical education that
would deter training individuals
skilled in thinking along with their
highly-specific proficiencies.
This follows from America's pres-
ent predicament which has been
caused, according to some quarters,
more by a lack of will-power and
foresight than by a deficiency in
technical skills.
NIROTC To Begn
PhysicalProgram
Coincident with the announcement
that a physical fitness program will
be inaugurated before the end of the
semester, the Naval ROTC an-
nounced yesterday that changes in
its schedule will make possible a
summer training cruise.
The physical fitness program will
be coordinated with regular drill pe-
riods for the rest of the semester,
Lieut. K. S. Shook, Executive Officer
of the unit, declared. The program
will be under the supervision of R. B.
Branham, Chief Specialist for Physi-
cal Education, Naval Reserve, who
came to the unit this week from the
Physical Instructors' School at Nor-
folk, Va.
The summer training cruise will
be held from May 28 to June 10 and
will be voluntary for the entire unit.
A recent survey of NROTC cadets
revealed that over 90 would make the
cruise if it were offered.

ASCE Will Hear Alt
Tell Of Raid Protection

Group To Send
Two Engineers
To Anntual Met
The student chapter of the Ameri-
can Society of Civil Engineers will
send two official delegates and sev-
eral other members to tche, annual
midwestern conference of ASCE
groups which will be held in Cleve-
land tomorrow and Friday.
The conference, which brings to-
gether representatives of student
ASCE groups from 12 midwestern
schools, will be centered around the
theme of National defense and the
duty of civil engineers in the emerg-
ency. Discussion groups and lectures
by prominent practicing engineers
will also be held.
Jim Howard, '43E. and John Au-
feroth, '43E, are being sent as the
representatives of the Ann Arbor
student ASCE organization, but Fred
Elmiger, '42E, Hank Sterngold, '44E,
Campbell Fisher, '43E, Paul Erick-
son, '43E Walter Williams, '43E, San-
for Stone, '43E, and Robert Brewer,
'43E, have also indicated their in-
tentions to attend.
Although no means of organized
group transportation has been ar-
ranged and expenses of attending
members except for the official dele-
gates will not be paid by the group,
bus and train ratcs and connections
havc been investigated and travel
information can be secured, by mem-
bers, from ASCE offwiers. Ann Arbor
delegates and urnof icia I members
plan to meet in Cleveland shortly be-
fore the registration deadline at 1
p.m. on Thursday, and to attend

Drive For Donors
Far Short Of Goal
With only 52 donors registered at
the close of the second day of the
campus-wide Red Cross blood drive,
Union officials conducting the drive
were far short of their goal of 1,000
registrants.
Seeking to build up a large reserve
list for future donations, registration
of donors will continue from 2 to 5:301
p.m. every day through Friday, in the
lobby of the Union.
Group registration of fraternities,
sorori ties, dormitories and coopera-
tives is especially urged by drive
officials. More than 2,000 persons
indicated, in the defense survey taken
earlier in the year, that they would
be willing to donate blood, and these
persons are asked now to register,
for the reserve list.
Not all students registering this
week will be called upon to give
blood when the actual donations are
taken for the present drive from 1 to
5 p.m. Friday at the Women's Ath-
letic Building. Those who are not
called upon in this drive will be
placed upon the standing reserve list
of donors.

Emergency
Fund Offers
Aid To Grad
(Editor's Note: This is the fourth in
a series of articles on the benefits of
the Emergency Fund for Foreign Stu-
dents. The International Ball, which
will be held Friday in the Union Ball-
room, will donate all of its proceeds to
the Fund.)
The Emergency Fund for foreign
students never stops benefiting Uni-
versity students-even after they've
graduated.
Recently one University student
completed his studies here and left
the city for his homeland. His de-
parture occurred around the time of
the Pacific crisis before Pearl Har-
bor. Shortly after the Japanese at-
tack on the Hawaiian Islands word
was received by the International
Center that the student was strand-
ed on the West Coast.
His ship had been torpedoed and
he had lost all of his baggage, in-
cluding his instruments and library,
and he was about to be placed in cus-
tody as an alien without status in
this country. The Center wired the
student that it would intercede with
the United States Immigration Serv-
ice. The Emergency Fund for For-
eign Students sent him sufficient
funds for his immediate needs.
Latest information is that his stat-
us has been legalized, and he has
been provided with a job until he
(,ll go home.
