Who Dunnit? Ask Gals
As Painters Quench Fire
A wastebasket fire, breaking out in
the women's lounge of the West Med-
ical Building, and filling the hall and
classrooms with smoke, caused unex-
pected excitement for 100 students
early yesterday afternoon.
Two painters already had the blaze
well under control when firemen ar-
rived to finish the job.
"That's the first time I ever saw a
metal towel rack on fire," remarked
Captain Heller of the Fire Depart-
ment, as he commented on the origin
of the blaze. It evidently was caused
by a careless coed tossing a cigarette
into the wastebasket and thus ignit-
ing a towel rack, the only object
actually seen on fire.

Get Bike License,
Warn Local Police
Ninety percent of the bicycles
stolen in Ann Arbor are owned by
careless University students, accord-
ing to Walter Schmid of the Police
Department.
Reasons for 'this high percentage
of losses, said Schmid, are that stu-
dents are particularly careless in
locking their property and they do
not take advantage of the licensing
service offered at a nominal cost by
the city. Failure in the latter re-
spect makes it almost impossible for
police to identify recovered bicycles.
Adding that thieves are not likely
to steal licensed bicycles because they
are too easily identified, Schmid
urged all bike-owning students who
have not yet done so to register their
property with the License Bureau im-
mediately.
UNION PINS AVAILABLE
Although the response to the an-
nouncement making Union life mem-
bership pins available has met with
unexpected response, there are still
200 pins available for distribution,
according to David Striffler, '43, new
secretary of the Union.
1,000 -Women
Requested for
Personnel Work
New Courses Opened
to Undergraduates
An immediate opportunity is open
to University women with some train-
ing in administrative management or
public personnel management, ac-
cording to Dr. Edward H. Litchfield,
Assistant State Personnel Director.
American civil government will.
need about 1,000 additional personnel
administrators during the year 1943.
"In a recent survey conducted by the
Michigan State Civil Service Com-
mission," Litchfield said, "we found
that the schools and colleges in the
country during the next year will
train only about one-eighth as many
personnel administrators as will be
required."
The survey also showed, he said,
that over 700 organizational analysts
will be needed by various governmen-
tal units, whereas the schools will
train less than one-fourth of those
needed in 1943.
The University, which has in the
past given courses for graduates in
the field of public administration, has
made these courses available for up-
perclassmen. Completion of either
Political Science 272, Administrative
Management, or Political Science 274,
Public PersonnelAdministration, pro-
vides students with most of the train-
ing required for immediate entry into
either organizational analysis or per-
sonnel work in the public service.
OLDTIME COMEDIES REVIVED:
Benchley Antics, Lloyd Satire,
Will Be Presented Tomorrow
; III
The antics of Harold Lloyd and
the whimsical humor of Robert
Benchley will be presented by the
Art Cinema League in a four-comedy
program as part of a series of old-
time American films at 7 and 9 p.m.
tomorrow in the Lydia Mendelssohn
Theatre.
A satire on undergraduate ambi-
tion of a typical American country
boy who struggles eagerly to adapt
himself to circumstances more com-
plex and more sophisticated than are
natural to him, "The Freshman" is
one of Harold Lloyd's better short
comedies. This picture -was made in
1925 and has as leading lady Jobyna
Ralston.
One of the first talking pictures,
"The Sex Life of the Polyp" stars
Robert Benchley in a mock lecture.
This picture was produced in 1928
by Fox Films, and the type of subtle
humor that was employed was not
achieved again for a long time after-
wards.
The first Silly Symphony to be
produced, "The Skeleton Dance" was
made by Walt Disney just a year af-
ter the initial Mickey Mouse picture
had scored a success. Disney began
his venture into animated cartoons
in 1920, but it wasn't until the ad-
vent of sound that they really became
well-known.
Two other early American films
will also be shown. One, the car-
toon "Gertie the Dinosaur," which
was drawn by Windsor McCay who
is regarded as the true father of
Felix the Cat. The other picture is
"The Doctor's Secret" which was pro-
duced in 1908.
