I THE MIC7HGAN DAI No Soldiers Form New Campus Athletic C roup Army Intramural Program Includes Basketball, Wrestling A new program of Army intra- murals, which will give the seven companies on campus a chance to compete among themselves and with the Navy, has been organized under the general supervision of Maj. J. P. Warner. Each company will have two bas- ketball teams, and a track team is to be organized from among the vari- Gus units. A tentative plan is also being made to have field events such as jumping and hurdles. Men Volunteer The company basketball teams, re- spectively under the supervision of a coach and a manager, are composed of selected volunteers. About 248 men signed up for basketball origi- nally, although fewer showed up for the first practice last Friday night in Waterman Gymnasium. Company B led the list of volunteers with 56 Inter-company competition will be- gin next Friday and will continue on Nov. 26, Dec. 3 and Dec. 10 in Water- man Gymnasium. Either the win- ning company team or 'an all-star team composed of men from all the companies will then play the top Navy team on Dec. 17 in Yost Field House. The final selection of a team to compete with ,the Navy will be made by representatives from the different companies. Boxing, Wrestling Planned Boxing and wrestling are also planned with nine volunteers for each. Twenty men signed up for run- ning and 14 for track. The aim of the intramural pro- gram, Maj. Warner said, is "to get as many men to participate as pos- sible. Quite a lot of interest was shown among the men and the or- ganization was more or less spon- taneous." Lt. Archie V. Johnson, Lt. Samuel Reizman and Lt. Carlyle C. Garrick are assisting Maj. Warner in super- vision of the program. Bombing formation as saying that several places in southern Norway were at- tacked at noon "by strong American formations." The broadcast acknow- ledged, however, only "damage to some buildings." The raid continued a series of ma- jor American blows at the Germans' metal supply. Fortresses bombed Dueiren near Cologne, site of an im- portant light-metal processing plant for airplane parts, on Oct. 20 and ,Nov. 7. The aerial campaign against Ger- man war facilities across the English Channel was continued during the d y, meanwhile, but swift RAF for- mations of light bombers and fight- ers which attacked a seaplane base near' Brest, an alcohol plant near t.'aazaire and shipping and com- munications throughout northern France. There were also indications tonight 'that the Allied attacks were contin- uing. The Vichy radio's five-station ztwork went off the air early this evening for a long period. This is the usual sign that Allied night bombers were out on their missions. Marines Learn Self-Protection In Forest PEM Men Trained To Climb Trees, Use Compass, Distinguish Animals This semester 40 Marines are tak- ing a special forestry P.E.M. course which in previous years was given for civilians who wanted to know how to take care of themselves in the woods. As there were very few civilians left on campus to take this course, it was decided to adapt it to the needs of the Marine Corps, training the men to take care of themselves in jungles and similar places where they may someday be fighting. Men Visit Preserve The men go out to a nearby Uni- versity forest preserve one afternoon a week. This preserve is used by the Forestry Department for forestry classes. The Marines are instructed by members of the University staff assisted by Sgt. George Hornbrook, Sgt. Floyd Rubin and Cpl. Robert F. Atkins Jr., Marine drill instructors. In addition to the 40 Marines there are still a few civilian students in the Forestry Department taking the course. The men learn to climb ropes and trees to observation posts, how to find their way through the forest by means of a compass and other methods of identification and how to distinguish dangerous from non-dan- gerous plants and animals. The program is adapted from a book, "On Your Own" which was written by two University professors, Samuel A. Graham, professor of eco- nomic zoology, and Earl C. O'Roke, associate professor of forest zoology. Clothing Drive Begins Nov. 22 A drive, sponsored by the Wash- tenaw County Salvage Committee, will begin Nov. 22 for the purpose of collecting articles of clothing for the people of war-torn countries over- seas. This drive, which is being conduc- ted at the request of the War Pro- duction Board, has the whole-heart- ed support of the Michigan State Association of Cleaners and Dyers and all garments will be taken to local cleaners before being shipped overseas. School buildings throughout the county will act as receiving houses for donations. Persons wishing to give clothing will be asked to bring it to the schools between 8:30 a.m. and 3:30 p.m. except on Saturdays. Clothing is needed for women from the ages of two to 50 and for men of the same ages. The chief articles needed by the men are overcoats, topcoats, complete suits, sweaters, overalls, and sleeping bags. Those most needed by the women include coats, skirts, mittens, robes, hosiery, and underwear. Navy Pharmacist Leaves G. A. Freeman, pharmacist's mate first class, who was working in the V-12 sick bay, has been detached from the naval unit here and will leave Friday for another base. Mr. Freeman cahe here on June 17 from the naval hospital at Great Lakes. He has been in the Navy 14 months. Supplies Come Ashore for Marines With the beach cleared of Japanese opposition, Marine landing barges come into Bougainville Island to disgorge supplies for the fight- ing men who started the invasion of that Japanese stronghold in the Solomons, Nov. 1. Note tractor and jeep already ashore. WARTIME CASUALTY: ASTP To Be Permitted Only Two Day Christmas Vacation Christmas holidays will be a war casualty this year for all Army train- ees and their instructors stationed on campus. From the headquarters of the Sixth Service Command came orders this week permitting ASTP trainees only two days' vacation in the holiday season. For them and their instructors this two-day holiday will take the place Df a full week vacation provided in the regular University calendar. The orders of the Sixth Service Command read: "It is not contem- plated that any other holiday peri- od will be allowed ASTP trainees except Christmas Day, Dec. 25. Passes may be granted for the peri- od from the close of scheduled in- struction on Dec. 24 until the scheduled time for the evening meal on Dec. 26. In its directive to military per- sonnel here, the Service Command stated that "Thanksgiving Day and New Year's Day are not considered as holidays for military personnel and employees of the War Depart- ment during the present war emer- gency and regular hours of duty will be required." Navy men will fare much better than their brothers in khaki. For them Thanksgiving vacation will last from 6 p.m., Nov. 24 to 7:15 p.m., Nov. 25. In addition, the bluejackets on campus will have a full week for Christmas, the vacation beginning after classes Dec. 21 and ending at 7:15 p.m., Dec. 28. Like the Army, the Navy will consider New Year's just another day and classes will be scheduled as usual. Stanhrook To Speak Friday Lecture Will Be Given For Naval Architects R. C. Stanbrook, Marine Superin- tendent for the Bradley Transport Company of Rogers City, Mich., will speak before the Reserve Officers Naval Architecture Group on "Mar- ine Machinery," at 10 a. m. Friday. Mr. Stanbrook's company now has six unloaders on the great Lakes. He has been successful in increasing the efficiency of these lake freighters by improvements in the engine and boil- er rooms and by the use of new pro- pellors designed by the Department of Naval Architecture and Marine Engineering. During the last World War Mr. Stanbrook was an engineering officer in the British Navy. His lecture Fri- day will be given only for the Naval Architects. No one else may attend. This semester the Naval Architects will use the Naval tank in the West Engineering building about four hours a week, studying damage con- trol and stability of ships. This tank, one of the few of its size in the country, was built in 1904 for experimental use by marine and naval engineers. During the last few years it has been used exclusively in testing ship designs for Maritime Commission, Army, Navy and private architects.

Lt. Julius Aisner Jr, an alumnus of the University, is now taking bom- bardier training at Roswell Army Air Field in Roswell, N. M., having completed a course in navigation at San Marcos, Tex. Lt. Aisner will thus be able to serve the Army Air Corps in a dual capacity and will be eligible to wear the wings of either navigator of bombardier. Cadet Norman S. Teahan, of Schenectady, N. Y., is receiving basic flight at the Greenwood Army Air Field, at Greenwood, Miss. Cadet Teahan attended the Uni- versity and participated in track. He was accepted into cadet train- ing in October, 1942. While in training at Greenwood Army Air Field, Cadet Teahan will go through the transition from stu- dent flyer to combat pilot and learn the intricacies of night flying in ad- dition to learning to overcome the problems encountered in handling the faster basic training planes. Upon graduation he will proceed to an advanced training school. Aviation Cadet Kenesaw C. Gove of Milan has just arrived at Big Spring Bombardier School, Big Spring, Tex., to pursue the twelve weeks course as a bombardier cadet. Upon satisfactory completion of his training there, he will win his silver wings as a bombardier and be ap- pointed a flying officer in the Army Air Forces.
