IM IMICHIGAN ,DrAILY Visits Group Of U.S.Flyers American and British Troops Besiege First Lady; Adopted War Children Are Called On LONDON, Nov. 4.- (MP)- Mrs. Franklin D. Roosevelt called on the Eagle fighters of the U.S. air forces today and visited three war children she had adopted. Her long day began with a tour of Queens College, Cambridge, and the hostel for American and British troops in the University, town. She was besieged by American soldiers and she autographed hastily torn sheets of notepaper until her aides pulled her away to her train. The highlight of the day was a-visit to the pilots of the three -Eagle squad- rons taken into the U.S. air forces from the RAF last September. Standing in the warm sunlight, she met each pilot as he was presented by Col. E. W. Anderson, of Los An- aeles, group commander. The pilots included five holders of the Distin- guised Flying Cross. LinCoIn Co-gop Holds Benefit The Abe Lincoln Cooperative House, originator of the Bomber- Scholarship, will hold a benefit open house for the same cause at 8:30 p.m. Saturday. The open house will be similar to the one held there last February which precipitated the organization of the Bomber Scholarship. At that time the first $12.87 in the fund was collected and was the embryo of the more than $5,000 which has been con- tributed since. Entertainment will be provided by members of the house. Coral DePries- ter, '43E, president of the cooperative and chairman of the Bomber Schol- arship committee will receive guests. The public is invited. New 'William Tell' Saves Two Deer FERGUS FALLS, Minn., Nov. 4.- ()- Otter Tail County has a game warden who bids fair to be another William Tell. He doesn't shoot apples, but he did shoot the tip off a deer's horn and thereby saved the lives of two handsome bucks estimated to weigh 200 pounds each. The bucks locked antlers in battle Monday and from all indications they had been fighting for 24 hours when discovered by a farm resident who called Game Warden Holland from here. Not wishing to kill the animals and unable to separate them in any other manner, the warden took a chance on shooting off the tip of the horn which held the antlrs together. WVom ~-e -Pont o/ e Classy Coat - : 4 n" THE 18-19 year old draft measure is now in the hands of a joint conference committee and the major controversy is still what to do about cellege students-should education cf men students be abandoned for the duration? If the final decision is to draft boys in that age bracket with no provision for their educations, a great disloca- tion in the educational system is in- evitable. Many universities that are not sufficiently endowed will have to close because of lack of funds. Many colleges will be turned over entirely to government work. PRESIDENT Robert M. Hutchins of Chicago University, when asked to { comment on the effect of the draft measure on educational institutions,, predicted a 60% drop in the enroll- ment at the University of Chicago. It is clear that the grim realities of war make technological and scientific training essential at this time; but, it is as imperative that cultural arts, political history and theory, and the languages be kept alive through edu- cation, in order to form a more last- ing peace and more satisfactory post- war world. ° UT who is to be educated? Surely, it cannot be suggested that all college students be elempt from the, draft; for the obvious effect of this would be an abuse of the entire plan,' Organizations, Announce Many New Elections The following announcement are made about the elections and initia- tions, of the various organizations' around campus. Beta Phi Eta, the national honor- ary speech society, has a full supply of oafficers: Dorothy Wineland, presi-z dent; Barbara White, vice-president; Gail Parson, recording secretary; ~Mary Moore, corresponding secre-. tary', and Judy Pletcher, treasurer.

Installation of the following offi- cers of Sigma Alpha Epsilon will oc- cur next Monday evening: Ted Tar- bell, '43E, president; James Collins, '43, vice-president; Ned Gates, '43, secretary; Ruel Lehman, '45, chapter' correspondent; Bill Brooks, '44, social chairman; Albert Chipman, '44A, his- torian; Dick Hall, '43E,, intramural sports; and Karl Scharff, '43, house manager. Tarbell succeeds Harold" McPike as Chapter president. in that college would disintegrate to an escape from army life. President Hutchins, who has long opposed even exemption of divinity students, would, however, like to see the development of some plan "for the discovery and training of those who should go to college in the present emergency, those who can best serve their country by going there." He also suggested that some system be de- vised whereby education might be completed by the time the person reaches 18 years of age. War brings gigantic upheavals in every phase of existence. A war gen- eration sees scientific, social and eco- nomic revolutions. Perhaps this great- est of all forces will have the power also to bridge the years of slow, tedi- ous progression in educational devel- International Center Opens 'Snack Hour' This year the International Center has instituted a "Snack Hour" to re- place the" Sunday Supper Hour" of former years. According to the direc- tor, Prof. J. Raleigh Nelson, the new plan will provide the same friendly and social atmosphere that has made the Sunday suppers one of the fea- tures of the week at the Center in the past. Since it was opened four years ago, the Center' has served substantial, but inexpensive suppers every Sunday evening during the winter terms. It has its own well equipped kitchen and a special staff member in charge of suppers and teas. With the rising costs of foodstuffs and an increased shortage of labor, the Center found it impossible to maintain the same standards for these suppers even by increasing the price of the service. Professor Nelson and his staff felt that without the informal social hour, much of the opportunity for getting acquainted would be lost. Accordingly they insti- tuted the "Sunday Snack Hour" as a substitute. Under the new plan a dessert and a beverage will be served at a nominal price from 6:30 p. in. to 7:15 p. m. As in the past, students, faculty or townspeople who are interested are welcome. PLEDGING ANNOUNCED Phi Sigma Delta announces the pledging of two new members, Ray Resnick, '44, Binghamton, N. Y. and Martin Meltzer, '46, New York City. Three Flyers Killed EL PASO, Texas, Nov. 4.- (/P)- Three army air force men were killed and six injured today in the crash of an army bomber at Biggs Field. The public relations office said the accident occurred on a take-off. TICKETS ON SALE Tickets for Play Production are on sale from 3:30 p. m. to 5 p. m. today in the League Lobby. Sorosis Injured In Flying Tackle Perhaps violent pangs of sympa-. thy were expressed when Tom Kuzina was injured in the line of duty but nothing can top the football casualty which occuired to "Healthy" He:.en Garrels, daughter of John "Olympic" Garrels, '09, when she made a fly:ng tackles on the Sorosis lawn and land- ed on the remains of a glass bot'Je. The rescue crew rushed her to the Health Service and she can boast of nine stitches in her hand and aim. "She is coming along well" now and perhaps doesn't altogether dislike the personal attention her friends hive been giving her. been giving her.

As Assembly's first project for the Year, the drive is 'esigned to supple- 'met Fort 'Custer's library with the 'books not'likely to be included in the donations from the nation-wide book drive recently put on. Actual books are nt asked 'for, because they are 'not likely to- be those which army camp libraries lack, namely new ones.

Carnegie Gift Offers Musical Entertainment Approximately 5 years ago an An- drew Carnegie gift was received by the League, Which is a "God-send" to the people who like to study with the radio on;-and have no #adio. A rec- ord player and several albums of classical music have been the dis- tracting influenoe"'to many mathe- matics and, chemistry students, who can't work without at least a dog fight or a freight train in the next room. 'The records are played every day in the lobby of the eague ballroom, from. -3 until 9 p. m. and reuests are eagerly sought by Mary Gene Evans, '46§M, andl Marian Teeters, '46M, who change the records in three hour shifts. All requests are played on Fri- day, and must be in at least by Thurs- day. You don't have to be a musician, (most of'the people aren't), and you don't even have to know the names of the records, (the girls announce them), so the next time you have a fight with your roommate, and threa-nt evfrvewynthpoe to the League and give your dignity a chance to recover?

With all vestiges of the colorful autumn fast disappearing, the student body is launching itself into the staid, well-ordered, academic life of winter on the Michigan campus. Imbued with the seriousness of earning grades better than ever before, everyone is religiously attending classes and taking extensive notes at the lectures. Outstanding among the enthusiasts are KIT UPSON and NORMA KELLY, who, although they begin the class period by conscientiously jot- ting down studious pearls of knowledge, find themselves wandering off with a nerve-wracking puzzle, which involves a continuous line, long before the period is over. "It's IMPOSSIBLE!" they mutter, but go right on with pencils frantically clutched. And then there are other distractions that occur in classes. In one recitation they happen to be in the persons of DON LUND and GEORGE KIESEL who, as popular mail-carriers for the Wolverines on the Gridiron, attract more than several side glances from nearby class- mates. One of these fortunate individuals is JOADIE ROSS who, when asked what she thought of her good luck, replied aesthetically, "EGAD!".. But everyone knows that a well-rounded education cannot be acquired in classes and studies alone, so between intellectual pursuits, the students on campus take time out for tension-relieving diversions. "There are many forms of these. One that perhaps everyone within a radius of about six blocks of the area near S. University and Forest could have noticed the other night was evidently a popular diversion with JOHNNY CALEB and "friend" JIM who strode along, arm in arm, voices harmonizing in tender blasts of "My Gal Sal" and "Ragtime Cowboy Joe." And in the local coke parlors of an afternoon you can always spot a chum pausing for refreshment in any booth you approach. If it isn't CHAR THOMPSON in one corner, reeling off "catchy" feature story titles to the delight of ANN HARMON (cousin, inci- dentally, to Tom "98" of the same name), { it's MARTHA McCRACKEN in another corner, nonchalantly turning over 10-cent cokes into her lap. Or else it's ANN STAN- TON, economically groping into her pell mell for her tobacco pouch to°"roll her own" and then pull the strings together with her teeth a la western as she drags on the Stanton creation. As a new feature this year, a source for obtaining the physical exercise needed to mould the ideal student, the University is offering the popular PEM course. TED CHILDS bears a few bruises he acquired while trying to have the last word with a punching bag at class last week. And BUD GREEN declares that he found a few new muscles while conditioning the body beau- tiful too. I r mail '" IT'S S.mat TO KEEP WARM' THIS WINTER 11 1 ~ - .........,r.
