e a _ THE -3,11CHIr . 8,000 FORMER STUDENTS: Roster of "U' Men in Service Will Be on Exhibition in Union A bulletin board with over 8,000 names-this is the aim of the Union's war roster committee now compiling data for a comprehensive summary of all Michigan men serving in the anned forces. The seat of the data will be a huge bulletin board covering an entire wall in the Union Cafeteria. The board has recently been put into position, but the mammoth task of the committee headed by Dick Ford, '44, and Art Geib, '44, is just beginning. It is their job to glean from a mul- titude of sources the names, connec- tion with the University and the present rank and location of over 8,000 University men now known to be serving in the armed services. Through the aid of the Alumni Catalog ,Office, the compilation has been progressing for the last two weeks. The Alumni Catalog Office now possesses the card files of these 8,000 Michigan men. Something of this type of war ros- ter was attempted by the Catalog Of- fice during and after the last war. Because news sources were then less effective and because the project was begun too late, it failed in its objec- tive. However, 13,000 names were as- sembled and classified and are now on file in the Catalog Office in Alum- ni Memorial Hall. Taking heed from their experiences in the last war, the Catalog Office 1oeg4n its present record right after Pearl Harbor, realizing what value such a compilation would be to Uni- versity history and to Michigan alum- ni. Thus when the Union conceived the ideal of a public display-of this kind, the plan was sent one rung up the ladder of success by being able to draw upon the Catalog Office facili- ties. Digging out this information about University men in the Army, Navy, and Marine Corps has uncovered the fact that 100 Michigan Men have been listed as killed in action or train- ing since the war began. Of these some were reported from Pearl Har- bor and from the Solomons fighting area. The scene in the Union Student Offices in the next few weeks will be one of feverish typing. The combina- tion of a lack of typists and over 8,000 cards to be typed, makes the task of completing the war roster all the more mammoth. Said DicC Ford, "The challenge that this job presents will make us work all the harder to complete it. All we need is a little aid." To keep the records up to date, Union officials are asking that all information about University men now fighting be directed to Ford or Geib. Present plans indicate that names will start going up before the end of the month and the board will be filled by the middle of January.

STJUDENTS VOTE: Town Meeting Will Present Seeking to determine campus opin- ion in regard to suggested plans for post-war international organization, the Michigan Post-War Council will present a "Town Meeting" Tuesday at the Rackham Amphitheatre. The meeting will be keynoted by Mary Borman, Manpower Corps chief, who will be followed in turn by for- mer students who have made intens- ive investigations of the more promi- nent of the projected plans. The plans include Pox Victorarium, The Modi- fied League of Nations, Federations of Regional Sovereignty, and World- Wide Government. Following the formal addresses, the floor will be opened to discussion. As a climax of the meeting, votes will be cast on the plan considered to be most suitable in its general outline. -Be A Goodfellow -. Carg Will Be 0 M Sold Tuesd Truck Mish1ap Almost Hats Sale f Issue A truck breakdown almost caused a calamity for the Gargoyle staff, but the crisis is over and Garg editors can stop tearing their hair long enough to say, "Yes, the December issue will be on campus Tuesday.' Garg's photo-filled pages, fresh from the printers in Detroit, were on their way to the bindery yesterday when the breakdown occurred. Anxi- ety quickly spread throughout the Garg office, but soon the pages were speeded on again and the excited staff could settle down to normal. Worried, too, were the fans and followers of Mike Dann, '43, who nakes his debut this month as Gar- goyle's "Preposterous Person." Mike, the "only man in history born putting a silver spoon in his mouth" claims to be a "balanced guy-a very bal- anced guy," and if you can take in his list of amazing activites, ranging all the way from newspaper reporting to cultivating house mothers, you'll be convinced.! Be A Goodfeow - Extension Service Faces Problem of Room Shortage With classes being held in the lob- by, lounge, banquet hall and even the offices of the director, the University Extension Service is now faced with the annoying problem of where to place all the people who have enrolled in their courses at the Horace Rack- ham Educational Memorial in De- troit. Although the building appeared quite adequate to take care of the registrants in the various extension programs, it was found after the fall classes met for the first time that more provisions would have to be made for the 2,700 persons enrolled. 950 of these enrollees had entered the War Training Program, while 1,750 had registered in the regular pro- gram. Be A Goodfellow Union Bureau Alleviates Transportation Shortage Are you driving anywhere from Ann Arbor before vacation? The Union staff thought this a silly question too, considering gas ration- ing and the like, but a recent survey in connection with Union's new Tra- vel Bureau has uncovered some inter- esting facts. The student staff of the Union established this Travel Bureau last week in an attempt to aid persons leaving Ann Arbor for the Christmas holidays. It was further designed to alleviate the transportation crisis on the railroads. Response has been terrific. There are persons driving from Ann Arbor within the next week. They have signed up with the Travel Bureau to take passengers going in their direc- tion. . SATURDAY, DEC. 12, 1942 VOL.
