Allies Receive Vital Supplies Sonewhere in Tunisia
BROADWAY HIT:
Production to Present
Comedy, Stage Door,' Jan. 13
Connie Schaflander,, '46A, only
spent twenty minutes before her
speech class in composid g the sales
talk which had been the- assignment
yesterday, but the slightly flustered
professor was forced to admit the
energetic drive she put cii was cer-
tainly effective.
Connie, whose class is comnposed of
engineers and some architec ture stu-
dents, admits that her lifte hasn't
been too happy in the pasti months,
because speeches just don't seem to
go over before an audience of drowsy
and uninspiring engineers.
The boys were rudely awa kened
out of their lethergy however when,
after a short introduction, Connie
whipped out a war stamp and called
for a purchaser. Although her sp eech
might not have been technically Iper-
fect, the effect cannot be questioned,
because it netted two dollars more
for Uncle Sam.

that any faculty member with a
problem can petition our committee
for judgment. However, in cases of
demotion, change of salary, or dis-
missal, we automatically review the
case. We have been discussing this
problem, and will make our report
to the president on Friday."
Professor Dahlstrom's only state-
ment last night was, "The matter is
in the hands of the Senate Advisory
Committee' and under the circum-
stances I do not feel able to com-
ment."
Professor Wegner said, "I am not an-
swering any questions at present.
You will have to talk to the Senate
Advisory Committee."
One student, who asked not to be
quoted by name, said his class was
dismissed in this way:
"At the 9 a.m. starting hour an
official, whom I did not know, came
into the classroom and asked Profes-
sor Dahlstrom to dismiss his class.
We overheard this in the classroom.
Professor Dahlstrom refused and the
man left the room. At 9:30 he re-
turned and after a short conversa-
tion with Professor Dahlstrom dis-
missed the class and said, 'Professor
Dahlstrom has been relieved of fur-
ther teaching duties in English I':"
President Ruthven could not be
reached by telephone last night; nor
could Prof. Carl Brandt, chairman.
of the engineering English depart-
ment.

cials, including the presidents of the

his toll around campus as the Novem-
ber monthly report from Health Ser-
vice shows.

were reported in far fewer number
than at this time last year.
In addition to the regular duties
the medical staff has been concerned
with examinations for military re-
serves, of which there were 231 dur-
ing November. Of these, 118 were for

LANSING, Jan. 5.- (]P)- Gover-
nor Kelly today laid out for himself
a rigid office routine during the ap-
proaching legislative session, and, he

its current dramatic season, Play Pro-
duction of the Department of Speech
will offer the Broadway hit play,
"Stage Door," for a run of four per-
formances, Jan. 13 through Jan. 16,
in the Lydia Mendelssohn Theatre.
Rehearsals for this campus pro-
duction have been in progress for
many weeks, and an unusually large
cast filled predominantly with women
is now rounding up the final details
necessary for a finished performance.
A comedy hit complete with witty
dialogue and wry remarks, "Stage
Door" has proved equally successful
on the stage and screen. Its authors,
George S. Kaufman and Edna Ferber,
have fashioned this play around the
tales of girls who aspite to stars in
the New York theatre.
The action of "Stage Door" takes
place in the Foot-Lights Club, where
Rayburn Calls
for Resistance
to Bureaucrats
(Continued from Page 1)
for countless years to come, convenes
tomorrow with all factions pledged to
an all-out war effort but sharply di-
vided on domestic issues.
Preliminaries were cleared away to-
day. In a pre-session caucus, Demo-
crats unanimously nominated Ray-
burn for another term as speaker of
the House, and reelected John W. Mc-
Cormack of Massachusetts as their
floor leader.
Democrats and Republicans alike
called for a holiday on politics in
dealing with legislation necessary to
win the war.
The Democrats emerged from their
caucus jubilant over a show of har-
mony, one member describing it as
"a very happy, harmonious caucus;
there was no trouble at all, and we
are going to win the 1944 elections."
Joseph W. Martin Jr. of Massachu-
setts, former chairman of the Repub-
lican National Committee and House
minority leader in the 77th Congress,
issued a statement outlining a plat-
form for House Republicans in the
new Congress. Principally it called
for:
Preservation of constitutional gov-
ernment; discarding of partisan poli-
tics in the war effort; no "special
privileges" for any group; restoration
of "the prerogatives of the Congress;"
curbing of "the reckless granting of
blanket powers and blank checks;"
elimination of unnecessary bureaus;
revision of the tax system to embrace
the "pay-as-we-go" principle.

retary of Agriculture Wickard tonight

per cent of their monthly production
of creamery butter for direct war re-
quirements, including military and
lend-lease, beginning Feb. 1.
At the same time, the food admin-
istrator extended a previous order of
the War Production Board reserving
the production of all citrus juices,
stage-struck young girls may live
cheaply and find plenty of time to
haunt the managers' offices. In the
main, the comedy is concerned with
Terry Randall, whose desperate 10-
alty to the stage is finally rewarded
by a fine role which will establish
her as an artist.
Tickets for the four performances
of this comedy by Play Production
will be placed on sale Monday morn-
ing at the Mendelssohn box office.
Box office hours will be from 10 a.mi
to 5 p.m. Monday and Tuesday, and
