The tenth section of the Univer-
sity's Ordnance Materials Inspection
course began yesterday when 37 men
undertook a training program which
will fit them as industrial inspectors
in 10 weeks.

course they are assigned to war plants
in this area.
The ordnance students will carry
a full 48 hours of class work each

course, since a new section is started
every five weeks.
This ordnance course is under the
direction of Col. H. W. Miller and
Prof. O. W. Boston.

which show the early development
of motion pictures in this country.
This series will be split into four Sun-
day programs and will show a survey
of films beginning in 1895 and con-
tinuing through to the end of the
silent era in 1928.

years, tickets, priced at $1.10, are be-
ing sold for the entire four perform-

Technic, Delayed
In October Issue,
To Appear Monday
Technical difficulties will prevent
the Michigan Technic from going on
sale tomorrow, Keith Smith, '43E,
managing editor of the engineering
college's official magazine, announc-
ed yesterday.
He added, however, that the bigger
and better October issue will cer-
tainly be on the streets Monday. This
issue, the first of the present aca-
demic year, will be totally revamped
in style, content and make-up and
will include articles which have all
been written by alumni of the col-
lege.
Prominent among this year's new
Technic features is the professional
ethics section, Smith explained. This
feature, which will soon be followed
up by the formation of a profes-
sional ethics society, will present a
problem in ethics each issue. For the
best solution to the problem Technic
will give a five-dollar reward.
Another new feature will be "Au-
thorbiographies," which will be a
short biography of the authors of
the issue's articles.
The articles for the October issue
are "X-Ray for Production Control,"
by D. M. McCutcheon, '31E, "Thermal
Expansion of Metal," by T. H. Wick-
enden, '13E, and "Profit Sharing in
Industry," by W. B. Russell, '20E.

ing, Captain R. L. Kolb, of the De-

Telephone Lines
Are Battle Lines
USE LONG DISTANCE
FORTHE MOST
ONLY FR
NE CESSAYCAL
War is on the wires. Long distance lines are
crowded with the greatest volume of calls
they have ever carried. And the telephone
system cannot be enlarged substantially be-
cause necessary materials are going into
fighting equipment instead.
Consequently, we must make the most effi-
c ent use of present telephone facilities. You
can help by:
1. Using long distance only for the
most necessary calls.
2.oPlacing those calls by number
whenever possible.
3. Keeping all your telephone con-
versations brief.
