Pairing applications of Bomber Plant workers for a partner to ride to work, the coc-ds combine efficiency with good "appeal to the public," Strickland said. They work staggered shifts at the City Hall to make effective Ann Ar- bor's ride-swapping program under the Office of Civilian Defense. Transportation workers were se- lected from over 1,000 women who've signed up so far at the Michigan League's Women's War Council. The CDVO anticipates using more and more University women for public jobs around Ann Arbor, officials in- dicated. Be A Goodfellow Williams Will Speak at Hillel The growth of reactionary ele- ments in American politics will be discussed by Prof. Mentor Williams, of the English department, at 8:30 p.m. today at the Hillel Foundation. Prof. Williams, who participated last week in the Post-War Conference panel on internationalism, will speak on "Are We in Danger of Native American Fascism?"

Preceding the discussion, conserva- tive religious services will be held in the chapel starting promptly at 7:30 p.m. SPHINX There will be no more meetings of the Sphinx Honorary Society until after the Christmas Vaca- tion. Be Out Tuesday The issue date of the Michigan Technic's big December edition is the question that's haunting engineers and laymen alike these days as a cloud of secrecy envelopes the Tech- nic office. Though it is rumored that the great engineering magazine will be on the stands next Tuesday close-mouthed executives are maintaining poker faces all over the place. Heading the list of 5 feature stories are Alice C. Goff's "Women in Sci- ence" and a timely article on the types and processes of synthetic rub- ber, contributed by Don O'Neill, '43E. "Electro-Chemical Industries" by Paul Kennedy, '44E, "Glass" by E. Aiken, and R. G. Freeman's discus- sion of the economic aspects of his field, "Production Engineering," com- plete the list of attractions.1 Garg Features War Actimities .Alan of Beauty' Stars Local Talent 1942 may find the campus queen of yesterday donned in factory slacks and tailored uniforms, but if you think feminine beauty has gone for the duration, the December Gargoyle which appears Tuesday will set you right. Garg scouts have found local tal- ent to fill a three-page "Album of Beauty," with top place given to this month's cover girl-a Nurses' Aide. Photos of other phases of campus life will highlight this issue of the Garg-with war activities predom- inating. Commandos training in the ROTC units, weary workers picking sugar beets at Sandusky for the Manpower Corps and blue-uniformed coeds aiding hospitals are all pic- tured. The lighter note of college sports breaks through with a "Sta- dium Review" showing the best foot- ball shots of the year. -_ _ _ _ _ _ __ _ _ _ _ _1 A meat company employe cuts up the first shipment of horse meat to arrive in Boston, Mass., for human consumption to augment dimin- ishing supplies of beef. The meat, which bears federal inspection stamps, came from Topeka, Kan. Campus eateries will probably soon be fea- turing this new delicacy. * * * * A HORSEY MENU TODAY: Meat Rationing Just Around the Corner, WPI3 Officials Warn ~4 _____________ Seniors and Sept.

By PAUL HARSHA Meat rationing is right around the corner, the War Production Board has decided, and scrapple, tripe, souse, pigs' feet-and horse flesh- soon are to come into their own on student menus. These rarely-served viands are "meat sundries" which will partly re- place such old reliables as steak, roast beef, pork chops, once meat ration- ing really gets rolling. Even though United States meat production this year is highest in history, there won't be enough to meet avid demands from American fighting men at home and abroad, hungry allies, and civilians, too, sup- ply experts have stated. Share Your Meat Campaign It's the civilians who are asked to join in a nation-wide "share your meat" campaign while the War Pro- duction Board maps out a big-scale rationing program. A fair share of meat for an able- bodied person over twelve years old is 2% pounds per week, the govern- ment has suggested. And that in- cludes meals eaten at home, at some- body else's homes or at restaurants. The rationing will crack down on hamburger, pork, beef, veal, lamb and mutton carcasses, sausage and canned meats made from any of the above, the government has announced in preparing its ration plans. Voluntary Rationing Program 2,500 dormitory students already are subscribing to the 21/2-pound limit per week preluding general ra- tioning, according to Miss Kathleen Hamm, University dietitian. The Uni- versity has been limited to about 16% of its meat quota of a year ago, she indicated. Pork, down 25%, has been checked most of all. The voluntary rationing program should limit the student's 10 p.m. Hootkins Gives Talk in Spanish States Clear Idea of Democratic Mexico "The majority of us are not doing our part in cementing the much- needed friendship between Mexicans and ourselves," Dr. Hirsch E. Hoot- kins of the Romance Language de- partment said in a Spanish lecture yesterday. Dr. Hootkins, who gave a clear idea of the Mexican views of demo- cracy during a six-month stay in Mexico last summer, stated that if we wish to be true allies of the Mexi- can people we must learn to appre- ciate and comprehend their concep- tion of democratic ideals. "The Mexicans have a more realis- tic feeling for democracy than we do in this country because they are still fighting constantly for it, where- as we gained our democratic freedom years ago and now take it for granted," he said. "For this same ren their annreciation of the im- hamburger, Miss Hamm warned. Such after-supper tidbits will figure into that 21/2-pound ration, she said, and it's just as important to cut down consumption then as at dinner. The Food Requirements Committee of the War Production Board, which made the survey of civilian meat de- mands, estimates it will take several months for adequate ration machin- ery to be set up. 1 . r
