Talk Sunday
At Rackham
'Jewry in World of
Tomorrow' Is To Be
Discussed in Lecture
Maurice Samuel, author and lec-
turer, will speak on "Jewry in the
World of Tomorrow" at 3 p.m. Sun-
day at the Rackham Auditorium,
under the auspices of the B'nai Brith
Hillel Foundation.
For the last 15 years Samuel has
been traveling throughout the world
interpreting Jewish values to other
peoples in lectures and in books. On
his current lecture tour his topics
have included "Jewry in the World
Revolution," "Hitler's Last Hope" and
"Palestine and Asia."
His translations of Sholem Asch's
"The Nazarine" and the recent best
seller, "The Apostle," have attracted
interest in this country. Other trans-
lations of his have included those
on the works of I. J. Singer, and the
humorous stories of Sholom Alei-
chem, a Palestinian writer whose
works had not previously been trans-
lated into English.
Of his own books, that which has
attracted the greatest attention in
this country was "The Great Hatred,"
a study of the pathological nature of
anti-Semitism. His treatise on the
character of Jewish civilization, "You
Gentiles," also received acclaim from
American critics.
A group of 200 week-end guests of
the Hillel Foundation, on their an-
nual visit to the University, will at-
tend the lecture. The public is cor-
dially invited to attend.

B-flat minor) by Cimarosa, and the
Beethoven "Sonata, Op. 110" at her
piano recital at 8:30 p.m. today in
the Assembly Hall of the Rackham
Building.
She will also play Tschaikowsky's
"Theme and Variations, Op. 19, No.
6," the Bach-Busoni "Choral Prel-
ude" (Wachet auf, ruft uns die Stim-
me) and Bach-d'Albert "Prelude and
fugue in D major."
A student of Joseph Brinkman,
Miss Hanby came to the University

she studied with John Duke. She is

ary musical society, and Phi Kappa
Phi.

TRE

University students, faculty mem-
bers and townspeople will be asked
to contribute for the twenty-fourth
consecutive year to the annual Tag
Day Drive to be held May 12.
Meeting yesterday to complete plans
for the annual campaign, a commit-
tee of University students and Prof.
F.N. Menefee, faculty director, named
Marjorie Hall as chairman of the
drive.
Tag Day has become a University
tradition, according to Prof. Mene-
fee. "The $1,500 we hope to collect
this year will be used to send young
boys of metropolitan areas to the
Fresh Air Camp."
"The camp," he pointed out,
"serves as a vacation center for
boys who have had difficulty in
adjusting to their environments.
It is staffed by experts in the fields
of psychiatry, psychology and soci-
ology who can make a diagnosis of
each individual case."
The children who are sent to the
camp are chosen by 25 different co-
operating social and case-working
agencies. Included among this group
are the Michigan Child Guidance
Institute, the Council of Social Agen-
cies of Detroit, the Wayne County
Clinic for Child Study and the Michi-
gan Children's Institute.
Other members of the directing
committee for the drive include June

Speak Today on
Voltarianis m
Prof. Edward B. Ham of the French
department will speak on some of
the enemies of Voltarianism at 4:10
p.m. today in Rm. D, Alumni Memor-
ial Hall in the last in the series of
French lectures.
Prof. Ham said the enemies of Vol-
tarianism and of the Encyclopedists
in generalanumbered well over600,
that'in some cases the believers car-
ried their attempts to win support so
far as to incur proscription on the
Index.
He said that some of the o1 tstand-
ing examples of "apologist vagaries"
in France and a discussion of the
reputation which Voltaire had in
19th century Canada will form the
basis of the talk.
He added that the believers have
been noticed little by scholarship but
that they have had special signifi-
cance in the evolution of French
thought.
Tickets for the lecture can be
secured from the secretary of the
Romance Language Building or at
