Pressing a drive for blood donors. he American Rd Cross attempted on D eb. 12 to mobilize college men and women for donations of their blood.

Dona- tions of books of all kinds, to go into lilraries for the armed serv- ices were asked. Boxes were placed at strategic points on campus.

Art Rude, '42, chairman of the Bomber-cholarship Fund, was told to go ahead with plans for parties and dances. A solution for housing-short Ypsi- lanti and Ann Arbor was presented in detail to the National Resources Planning Board by Prof. Jean He- brard of the architectural school and his classes. A model community, the Lomber City, was planned by art school classes to provide a basis for housing the war workers pouring into this area to work at Willow Run. The community would be built between Ypsilanti and Belleville. The model community would be composed of 10,000 homes, all of them built to Federal Housing Au- thority specifications, at a cost of less than $5,000 per unit.

Ganoe, new head of the ROTC, on March 29 demanded a compulsory physical education program for the students. The campus reacted to the label at- tached to them in the strongly- worded Michigan Technic article. Tl e University began immedi- ate consideration of the widely putlicized physical training pro- gram which was aimed at putting students into commando physical condition. It resulted in the PEM program for men. Replacing the defunct Committee of 1942, a Student War Board with carte-blanche powers was appointed from campus leaders on March 31. The new board immediately went to work, declaring that all organiza- tions wishing to hold campus affairs of any kind must have its approval. Another action was to begin a statis- tical survey of campus organizations and their work. A reservoir of officer material for the Navy was established with the formation of a V-1 Naval Reserve on campus. Enlistments in V-1 will be accepted from freshmen and sophomores.

Two thousand University men and women graduated on May 30 into a world torn by war. President Ruth- ven warned them of their solemn obligations and duties in his con- mencement address. Through the Summer Term stu- dents boiled in the sun getting in their PEM requirements. A new Army Enlisted Reserve was set up to allow students to finish school. Housing became more and more difficult to find as fall approached. Large influxes of war workers took up every bit of slack.
