Questionnaires TO Aid U' Plan Term Schedule Civilian students must fill out a questionnaire being distributed this week by the War Board which will enable the University to plan for the summer term. Each civilian student in the liter- ary, pharmacy, architecture, business administration, public health, edu- cation, forestry, and engineering schools is required to hand in a ques- tionnaire. This does not include sen- iors graduating in February. Questionnaires will be given out with the registration material ob- tained in University Hall. Students who have already called for their re- gistration material and did not re- ceive a blank are asked to return and get one. These are to be filled out and turn- ed in to the student's counselor, clas-. sifier, or advisor at the time new elections are approved. The information acquired will be tabulated by University tabulating machines and figures will be given to the deans and department chair- men. Post-War Radio Plans Are Told By Prf. Abbot At the recent meeting of Frequency Modulation Broadcasters, Inc. in New York City, attended by repre- tatives from 14 eities in Michigan, plans for an educational network for the east coast states and Tennessee, Kentucky, Michigan and Wisconsin were discussed, according to Prof. Waldo Abbot of the speech and radio departments, who represented the University. Commissioner Fly of the Federal Communications Commission an- nounced that five million FM receiv- ers would be ready by the end of the first year of post-war production; the following year, 20 million addi- tional receivers will be manufactured and sold. Practically all radio receiv- ing sets built after the war will in- clude FM. The meeting was attended by ap- proximately 800 people, most of whom were either operators of FM radio stations or persons contem- plating such activities. Other speak- ers were representatives of the United States Office of Education, manu- facturers of radio equipment, radio engineers and persons interested in the commercial side of broadcasting.

University Hospital Conducts Exprients with Penicillin 1 Paint-daubed, hamimer v.ielding coeds, working under the direction of Herbert Philippi, have completed the stage sets for Shakespeare's "The Comedy of Errors" which will be given by Play Production of the speech department at 8:30 p.m. Wed- nesday through Saturday in the Lydia Mendelssohn Theatre. Greek Pattern Used Not only will the costumes for the comedy be Greek in nature, but the entire stage setting will follow a stylized Greek pattern. In comment- ing on the Greek motif in contrast with the Elizabelhan which is tradi- tionally used, Philippi said, "There is great opportunity in working with the Greek motif, for the Elizabethan has been pretty well exploited by now, and this comedy lends itself readily to Greek settings." The entire scheme was organized with the idea in mind of maneuver- ability and fast shifts as the entire stage crew consists of coeds and the play itself runs continuously without an intermission, as Shakespeare wrote it to be played. Borrowing an- other idea from the Greeks, three turntables are used for operating a false proscenium so that the sets may be easily and rapidly changed. Painting Decorates Sets The sets to be used exhibit a great deal of intricate painting, most of which was done by the stage crew members with a final touching up by Mr. Philippi. A general color scheme of gold, grey, pink and blue grey was employed and this too is reminiscent of the Greeks, for they often painted their architecture. In discussing the procedure fol- lowed in developing the stage sets, Mr. Philippi said that after reading the play the next step is to decide on the general theme and then delve into research before the actual work on the sets begins. He commended the girls on the stage crew and said, "We have found that the girls who have been given responsible positions this year have been very efficient." Mr. Philippi came to Michigan last summer from McMurray College and before that he was at Cornell. Stage manager for "The Comedy of Errors" is Jean Christian and on the electrical crew are Marie Arons- son, Martha Elliott and Doris Lesser. Working on the stage crew are Th-el- ma Davis, Jacqueline Kramer, Doro- thy Langel and Barbara Lurie; prop- formiance of the comedy at 2:30 p.m. erties are being handled by Margaret Saturday. Tickets may be purchased Hamilton. starting tomorrow in the Lydia Men- There will also be a matinee per- delssohn box office. Two Reminders: 1.

Derived from a common mold, pen- icillin notatum, penicillin's existence was first discovered by Professor Alexander Fleming at St. Mary's Hos- pital, London, in 1929. However, its discovery did not cause much interest and consequently its many possibili- ties were not appreciated, Mr. Miller said. With the publication of certain papers in England announcing the results of Fleming's findings, inter- est in the clinical possibilities of penicillin was greatly stimulated, a pamphlet on penicillin, published by Merck and Company, stated. In the fall of 1941, arrangements were made for the production of pen- icillin in the United States. Ameri- ca's entry into the war shortly aft- er, introduced the element of urg- ency to the already aroused scien- tific interest in the therapeutic pos- sioilities of penicillin. Fronm study of its, clinical reports, it is apparent that the discovery of penicillin is a forward step in chemo- therapy. Penicillin has now reached the stage at which its efficacy in a wide variety of diseases has been established, although its full clinical potentialities are yet to be realized, the pamphlet said. The final form of this drug is a fine yellowish powder. It is very sol- uble in water, and is stable to light. Penicillin has proved to be remark- ably effective in the treatment of in- fections produced by the staphylo- coccus aureus, pneumococcus, hemo- lytic streptococcus, and the gonococ- cus. Under the guidance of the Com- mittee on Chemotherapeutic, 500 cases of various infections were treat- ed with penicillin by 22 groups of in- vestigators. The, pamphlet stated that peni- cillin has proved to be highly ef- fective in the treatment of pneu- mococcic pneumonia. The results obtained in the treatment of gonor- rhea with penicillin are also spec- tacular. Most of the supply of penicillin to- day is devoted to military uses, only about 15 per cent being provided for civilian uses. It is distributed to civ- ilian hospitals under the jurisdiction of Dr. Chester W. Keefer of Evans Memorial Hospital in Boston. "However, in a few months, a great- er supply of penicillin will be avail- able both for military and civilian purposes," Mr. Miller said. .. , THIS WEEK THE DEPARTMENT OF SPEECH PRESENTS Play Production m 'The Conedql'0f.C By WILLIAM SHAKESPEARE WITH HARP ENSEMBLE A great play offering grand entertainment Five Performances Only Wed., Thurs., Fri., Sat.
