ple " Dr. McClusky said.

Rules for the initiation of all fra-
ternity pledges as set forth recently
by the Committee on Student Affairs
are determined by the eligibility of
the student, Dick Emery, '43E, IFC
president, said yesterday in clarifica-
tion of the misunderstanding these
rules have caused.
Eligibility of all freshmen who
pledged during the current semgester
is determined by their five week
grades. Since the only grades re-
corded in the office of the Dean of
Students are grades below C, men
with D or E grades against them at
the five week period will be ineligible
for initiation.
Grades Determine Eligibility
The eligibility of all men who were
pledged before the current semester
is determined by their grade average
of all the terms following and includ-
ing that in which the man was
pledged.

Democracy by Force
"The experience of the last quar-
ter of a century has demonstrated
that democracy can't be imposed by
force-reform must come from with-
in," Dr. George Kiss of the geography
department said last night at a panel
discussion in the League.
"Democracy by Force?" the sub-
ject of the panel, was discussed by
Dr. Kiss, Prof. Wesley Maurer of the
journalism department and Prof.
Hessel Yntema of the law school.
Prof. Maurer emphasized the part
which example could play in the pro-
duction of democracy. Prof. Yntema
suggested that the history of U. S.
foreign policy should be taken into
considera'tion when considering our
part in the yost-war period.
Hobart Taylor, '43L, was student
chairman for the evening. Norma
Lyon, '46, was in charge of arrange-
ments.

Make sure it s right with
INSPECTION has always been an important step in pro-
duction. But in war work-where a soldier's life may
depend on the accuracy of machined parts and the
absence of flaws in a gun or shell or tank or engine part-
inspection is doubly important. Final inspection must
make sure that the product is RIGHT-and that no defect-
ive parts or workmanship are allowed to go out of the
plant.
The more precise the work, the more critical the inspec-
tion-and the greater the need for GOOD LIGHT to help
detect imperfections. Besides finding "rejects" when the
work is finished, inspection helps to prevent losses by
catching flaws early, as the work goes along. Periodic
inspection saves wasted man-hours and reduces spoilage.
Good light for inspection is "tailored" to the needs of the
specific job. What is satisfactory lighting for one job may
be wholly inadequate for another. For example, inspec-
tion may involve the internal structure of a piece, or its
composition. It may involve surface contour, or color and
finish. In each case there is a particular kind of lighting
to assure best results. Our industrial Lighting Advisors
will be glad to discuss any lighting problem you may
have, and study your requirements. They will then sub-
mit recommendations without charge. Call any Detroit
fice disclosed yesterday.
Under the leadership of its Vic-
tory Committee, Tappan came in
first with 7,271. Mary Peterson,
president of the committee, and Miss
Mildred Peterson, faculty advisor,
directed Tappan's drive.
Slosson placed second with 4,408
stockings and Jones, a smaller school,
came in third with 2,611.
As an incentive toward competi-
ticn, $50 and $25 war bonds were
bought through those home rooms
which collected the largest number.
Homeroom ?04 of Tappan and 306
of Slosson collected 966 and 967 re-
spectively.
15 pairs of silk hose will make a
small powder bag; 44 pairs, a large
powder bag. The nylon will be used
in the making of parachutes.
Society Will Give Tea
As might be expected from the
title, the story deals with fortune
telling and the plot involves a small
town girl who comes to New York and
is drawn into intrigues to swindle
the government. Gladys George and
Virginia Field are in the supporting
cast.

ring Deanna Durbin, Edmund O'Bri-

The film, which marks Deanna's

absence, is set against a background
of war, moving from China to the
Pacific War Zone and finally to San
Francisco's Nob Hill.
