THE MICHIGAN DAILY S~T~YR1~ HAY , 4 ......... .. ..... . ... ... ...... Lederer, Actor And Rancher, Appears I Behrman Comedy By BERYL SHOENFIELD "Always a sucker for atmosphere," Francis Lederer, gentleman-farmer and better known as stage and screen box office magnet, declared the Mich- igan campus "perfectly beautiful"- almost as much so as the mountain- ous landscape of his own California home, Canoga Park, near Hollywood. Lederer, broad-shouldered, heavy- lidded-and married--is here for the current Dramatic Season opener, S. N. Behrman's "No Time for Comedy," in which he takes the lead opposite actress Edith Atwater, of "Man Who Camee to Dinner" fame. Revealing that he has enacted over 200 parts in six years, Lederer insists that he likes to play all types of parts equally well. - "I choose a role primarily for a good play," the Czechoslovakian-born actortestified, in English influenced by, foreign travel. "I'd rather play the worst part in a better play than the best one in a poorer play." Having played in Czechoslovakia Germany, Austria, Africa, France, England and Hungary, as well as in the United States, Lederer is in a position to draw comparisons. "The American stage is better for finished productions," he asserted. "America does much more type cast- ing; actors are picked who most cosely resemble the parts, and here there is a terrific source to draw from." In contrast, Lederer explained, each European theatre has its own stock group. Basic staff consists of romantic leading man, character act- or and comedian. Casting would necessitate the comedian's taking all Henry Monsky To Talk Here At Convention President Of B'nai B'rith Will Address Banquet Tomorrow In Union Henry Monsky, national president of B'nai B'rith, will be the princi- pal speaker at the combinedbanquet of the Hillel Foundation and the Michigan B'nai B'rith Lodge conven- tion at 6:30 p.m. tomorrow in the Union Ballroom. President Ruthven will also be present to welcome the more than five hundred B'nai B'rith members who are expected to assemble in Ann Arbor for the convention. ' The banquet will commemorate the ,fifteenth anniversary of the founding of the Michigan chapter of Hillel. It will also include the annual presenattion of honors to the fraternity or sorority and -the stu- dents who have contributedmost to Hillel during the past year. Two $75 hostess scholarships will be awarded for next year. Mr. Monsky, who has been presi- dent of the Supreme Lodge of B'nai B'rith since 1938, is well-known for his leadership in numerous social welfare org anizatons. His work has included serving as a member of the board of trustees of Father Flana- gan's Boys' Town. He is considered one of the leading Jewish speakers of the day. Dr. Arnovici To Lecture Dr. Carol Arnovici, nationally-rec- ognlzed authority on housing and city planning, will speak in connection with the Institute of Adult Educa- tion program 4:15 p.m. Monday at the Rackham Auditorium. FRANCIS LEDERER humorous roles, whether or not he was "right" for the parts. Proud of his 300 acre San Fernan- do Valley estate, equipped in true Movieland tradition with rambling ranch house, stables and trimmings, Lederer makes clear that his seven- year-old prize is "by no means a dude ranch." In the role of agriculturalist, far- mer Lederer grows walnuts, alfalfa, apricots, barley, beef cattle and Hampshire and Duroc Jersey pigs. He has a tractor. a truck, two sta- tion wagons, five horses and a staff of ranch hands to assist him. His "fantastic mission-style stable" is especially dear to him, for he de- signed it himself. An antiquated ex- terior was achieved by interspersing the large rocks (from the ranch's own quarry) with "mellow old second- hand bricks." Here big-name directors, actors and writers convene for Lederer's famed Sunday night open house. Lederer will return to Canoga Park at the close of "No Time for Comedy" to be on hand for the filming of his next starring vehicle, "Phantom in the Night." Synod Appeal Is Tomorrow Lutheran Congregational., Plan City-Wide Drive Lutheran congregations of Ann Arbor are making final plans for city-wide appeals scheduled for to- morrow on behalf of the Lutheran ministry to men in the armed forces. A single-synod drive will beqcon- ducted by St. Paul's Lutheran Church in contrast to the Lutheran World Action Drive in which United and American Lutheran Churches will participate. The goal of the smaller drive is $500,000, a figure proportion- ately much higher than that set by the nation-wide appeal which hopes to gain $650,000. The purpose of Lutheran World Action is essentially the same as that of the other drive. About 25,000 men each month visit the 31 Lutheran Centers established throughout the country, to attend worship services and to take advantage of the recre- ational facilities the Centers have to offer. Proceeds from the appeal will be donated to this ministry for service men and funds in excess of $250,000 will go to foreign missions orphaned by the war, the emergency fund of American Bible Society, the Lutheran Refugee Service and to the YMCA's War Prisoners' Aid for men in pris- on camps in every part of the world. Navy Extends V7 Deadline To Aid Sophs Enlistments In Reserves Open To SophomoresI IneligibleFor V-I Lists The deadline for enlistmentbin Class V-7, Naval Reserve, has beenC extended for present sophomores who are over the age for enlistment in Class V-1, the Bureau of Navigation1 has announced. Such students will be permitted' to apply for enlistment in V-7 as soon as they reach junior standing. If accepted, they will be placed on1 inactive status until receiving their degree. Students with- present junior standing and above are barred from enlistment in V- by a ruling which went into effect May 1. The Bureau of Navigation has also1 announced that the comprehensiveI examination announced for April, 1942, for V-1 enrollees who are now sophomores will not be held, due to! insufficient time. V-1 men who areI now sophomores may apply for en- listment in V-5 or V-7. If not ac- cepted, they will be called to active service as enlisted men in the Navy upon completion of their sophomore year. The comprehensive examination for V-1 men who are now freshmen will be held March 1, 1943. The ex- amination will determine which stu- dents will be transferred to V-5 or V-7 or will be called to active duty as Navy enlisted men at the end of their sophomore year. The V-7 trainees will receive com- missions in the Naval Reserve as deck officers at the end of the training period. Speech Group Names Rutan As New lHea.,d The stump speakers of Sigma Rho Tau, honorary engineering speech society, recently elected Edward A. Rutan, '43E, president of the group, and selected at the same time four representatives who will leave tomor- row for the organization's twelfth annual convention atToledo, O. Rutan has been acting president during the past year because of the resignation of Donald . Taylor, '43E, as president. Other new officers are: Marvin Zeskind, '43E, vice-president; Millard E. Griffiths, '44E, treasurer; Robert Dongle, '44E, corresponding secre- tary; Paul R. Hildebrandt, '44E, home secretary; Henry Sterngold, '44E, recording secretary. Dongle al- so was elected ambassador. During the past few weeks the group hastbeensholding contests within itself to select representatives who will compete with speakers from chapters in seven other colleges rep- resented at the Toledo convention. In the raconteur contest Jerome L. Goldman, '45E, will be the group's representative while Alex M. Pent- land, '42E, will compete in the con- vention's project speech dPision. Warren M. Shwayder, '45E, won first in the local impromptu speaking contest and will represent the Michi- gan chapter in that field in the con- vention competition. For the "hall of fame" contest John C. Hammelef, '42E, will be the convention repre- sentative. Grad 1 Outing Club To hl)1d Last Meeting Tomiorrow Plans for the coming summer's program will occupy the attention of the Graduate Outing Club atb their meeting to be held at 2:30 p.m. to- morrow. The group will assemble near the rear northwest door of the Rackham Building, regardless of the weather, for what will probably be the last meeting of this semester.

W*W va sr rlm - Last Times Today -- NANCY RICHARD KELLY CARLSON Blitz'Adoptee' Receives Gi f t From School A letter giving thanks for a Christ- mas gift arriving in March (though mailed from Ann Arbor in October) was just received by the children of Bach School, 600 W. Jefferson, from their "adoptee," 13 year old Mary G. Arthur, of Wales. One year ago the Bach School children, with the fourth grade under principal Ethel Hedrick taking the initiative, "adopted" Mary Arthur by contributing $30 to the American Save the Children Federation, after hearing a plea on behalf of the British war orphans delivered by Mrs. Preston W. Slosson, who with Mrs. Edward W. Blakeman, is chairman of the local SCF group. Supplemented British Funds This sum supplemented British funds in providing food, clothing and medical care for this child, in her own home, for a 12 month period. At the same time teachers of Bach gave an additional $30 toward the maintenance of Trevince House, Red- ruth, Cornwall, known as the Ann Arbor Shelter since it is supported by local funds. The five-months-late Christmas parcel for the young Welsh girl con- tained a coat and dress, a blanket and sweater for a new baby brother, hankies, caps and numerous small gifts. This and the many letters have been sent through the SCF offices in New York, collaborating with a sis- ter branch of the organization in England, responsible for distributing the gifts to the "blitz babies." Three Letters Received To date, the Bach school children have received three letters from this young war evacuee. The latest is a cheerful message, .describing spring in England and garden planning, and is concluded with the familiar Brit- ish phrase, "We will win the war .. . - V." Mary Arthur was "adopted" in ac- cordance with the terms of the "$30 plan" advocated by SCF. A second adoption procedure is offered by SCF: payment of $120 will maintain an "under-five" in a residential nur- sery home (of which Trevince is representative) for one year, com- plete with supervision by trained nurses and psychologists. Iiores!iy Cam's Summer Prograin To Ile Lengthened In line with the University's accel- erated education program the for- estry school's summer camp, Camp Filibert Roth, will this year run from June 15 to September 26, five weeks more than in past years. Located in Iron County in the Up- per Peninsula within the Ottawa Na- tional Forest, this camp furnishes the foresters with the opportunity to see forestry as practiced by the Uni- ted States Forest Service and the Michigan State Conservation Com- mission. It is also near an area of logging operations and a number of wood-using industries, so the camp- ers can observe many different phases of forestry work. Between 35 and 40 students are expected to enroll this summer for this program. IMICHIGANI The CityBeat: Today's Ann Arbor News In Summary With President Alexander G.

Philadelphia Orchestra Player Gained Start WithPIU' Orchestra When you go to either of the May Festival concerts today, take a care- ful look at the slim young man, sec- ond from the left end, in the horn section of the Philadelphia Orches- tra. He may be your old room-mate. For Ward Fearn, Michigan, '39, knows how to get to the other side of Division Street just as well as you do. To Ward, who played in the University Symphony Orchestra and the Little Symphony several years ago under Thor Johnson, this is something of a triumphant home- coming. Success came to him in a surpris- ing fashion. Soon after graduation, Ward was in Philadelphia at the Curtis Institute taking lessons from the noted horn player of the Phila- delphia Orchestra, Anton Horner. "I had an audition with the orches- tra on a Saturday afternoon," he re- lates. "At eight o'clock the following. morning the personnel manager woke me up and asked me if I wanted a job and that I had better pack my bags fast because the orchestra was leaving that afternoon for a tour+ through the South." Ward, who is only twenty-three, joins Willie Gibson, trombonist, as one of those Michigan alumni play- ing with the Philadelphia Orchestra. When he played under Thor John- son Thursday evening, it was a great experience for him. "I played under him two years ago in the University Orchestra, and it' was a fine feeling playing for him Thursday," he declared. "He's an inspiring leader and musician." There will be plenty to keep Ward busy this summer, even though the, regular concert season is over, as he'll keep playing" with the orchestra in its summer "Robin Hood Dell" con- certs. "But first I'm going home to Ne- braska for a couple of weeks," he said, "and see what home is like," And when he goes home it's just as good as taking a tour with the or- chestra. Ward's father, who is something of an amateur musician, came all the way from Nebraska to hear the May Festival concerts. But it's worth ev- ery bit of it. He comes to Hill Audi- torium, smiles contentedly, and lis- tens to his son make "good music." DAILY OFFICIAL BULLETIN SATURDAY, MAY 9, 1942 VOL. LII.
