Hobbs, professor emeritus of geology, will discuss Truk and other Japanese mandated islands in the Southwest Pacific at 7:30 p.m. Sunday in the International Center. In 1921 Dr. Hobbs made a trip to these islands with the purpose of studying the growth of moun- tains. He was permitted to use a United States mine-sweeper for part of the trip and His Imperial Japan- ese Majestiy's cruiser "Yodo" was dispatched to take him to Truk. During the cruise the ship met a typhoon and because of certain de- fects in her construction she was un- able to run away from it. Writing later of this Dr. Hobbs said, "To this faulty construction of the 'Matsu- yama Maru' I owe one of the most interesting and thrillingexperiences of my life, for few craft have gone through a typhoon and survived." During the visit Dr. Hobbs had an opportunity to observe the islands closely where he took a number of pictures. He said yesterday that Truk has the same weakness as Pearl Harbor: the harbor entrances are very narrow. He said that he will show Sunday how Truk is dif- ferent from any other group of is- lands.

Graduation from this pro- P rofChevalley To Lecture on Mathematics Prof. Claude Chevalley of Prince- ton University, here as the Alexan- der Ziwet Lecturer in mathematics, will speak on "Local Class Field The- ory" at 4:15 p.m. tomorrow in Rm. 3011 Angell Hall. Winner of the Frank Nelson Cole Prize in the Theory of Numbers, prize awarded by the American Mathematical Society every five years for the most outstanding con- tribution in the field during the period, Prof. Chevalley has also pub- lished several papers in mathemati- cal journals. Prof. Chevalley was born indNor- way and received his higher educa- tion in France, where he attended the famed Ecole Normale Superieure. He wrote his doctoral thesis while serving in the French army, and was an active member of the young French mathematical group which has had tremendous influence on the development of modern mathe- matical thought. The Institute for Advanced Study at Princeton invited Chevalley to come to this country, and in the fall of 1939 he became assistant professor at Princeton. Tomorrow's lecture is the final lecture in the series of three on field theory. The second series on "Inter- section Theory in Algebraic Geome- try" will be given Monday, Wednes- day and Friday next week. gram enables a student to go on for special training in religious leader- ship. Edward W. Blakeman, counselor in religious education, pointed out that junior or senior civilians whio plan to follow the Degree Program should consult him in Rm. 215, Angell Hall. Listed on the Program are 54 courses in seven departments, includ- ing English, history, psychology, so- ciology, language and philosophy. During the past century the Uni- versity has graduated an average of five students per year from the Pro- gram.

Included among this num- ber were leading educators, three of whom were Barbour Scholars here. * * * eniors Offered Scholarships Four scholarships are being offered to graduating seniors interested in preparing themselves for the minis- try or for religious leadership, it was announced yesterday. Formal application for the Mar- garet Kraus-Ramsdell scholarship should be made at the Graduate School in the Rackham Building. This award, which is held by James Terrell at the present time, grants the student a year of post-graduate training in religion. Chicago Theological Seminar will grant six scholarships of $900 each for graduate study. All applications must be made before Feb. 29. Drew Theological Seminary in Madison, N.J., also offers a scholar- ship of $600. Details on the require- ments may be secured from Dr. Edward W. Blakeman, Rm. 215 Angell Hall. The award of $375 which will be offered again by Yale University is held this year by Gregor Hileman, '43. Save electricity to SAVE COAL Editor's note: This is another ad- venture of Mitchell Bomber, micro- scopic airplane who is building the Michibomber carnival, which will take off Saturday, March 11, in Waterman Gymnasium. Mitchell, when we last saw him, was fighting his way out of a sponge during carnival practice at the Delta Gamma house. Mick felt a terrific jar and he shot out into the open air again. The sponge had found its mark on the face of a Delta Gamma, who was just getting used to having sponges Highlights OnCamputs . Donors To Register . Registration for the March blood bank which will be held at the WAB March 9 and 10 is taking place now in Miss McCormick's office at the Michigan League, according to Jo Fitzpatrick, chair- man of the bank.

Just smooth on Lip Pomade's invisible, soothing film and defy the climate. There's no safer, sorer protection against painful chapping and cracking. Stop at any drug store and ask for the handy pocket tube thrown at her in preparation for the Michibomber. Sponges were still flying through the air, so Mick zipped out through the weather-stripping and headed to- ward 906 Sylvan, where Dorothy Tamura, '44, formerly of Pearl City, Oahu, Hawaii, was practicing a hula number for the carnival. As soon as Mick caught sight of Dottie he went into a tailspin and nearly crashed, but pulled out of it in time and landed on a picture wire to watch the act. It didn't take Mick long to give Dottie his most enthusiastic OK, and he set out toward another \carnival participant. Iloss To Give Concert Tonight Finney 'Duo' To Be Highlight of Program Prof. Gilbert Ross, violinist, ac- companied by Miss Helen Titus, pianist, .will appear in a faculty recital at 8:30 p.m. today in the Lydia Mendelssohn Theatre. Featured on the program is Ross Lee Finney's "Duo for Violin and Piano," which is being played for the first time in Ann Arbor. Written in 1943 and dedicated to Prof. Ross, the four parts of the composition are titled "Song," "Dance," "Comment" and "Conclusion." Speaking of the composition, Prof. Ross said, "The music has a strong rhythmic quality, and a certain American flavor that contrasts sharply with the cosmopolitanism of western European writers. Finney writes in a fairly advanced idiom, but his work is quite different from the style popular in the early 1920's." Prof. Ross, formerly Finney's co league at Smith, joined the music school faculty at the beginning of this term. He is also director of the newly organized University String Orchestra. Tonight's program, in addition to the "Duo," includes Tartini's "Con- certo in D minor;" Caporale's "Ada- gio;" Scarlatti's "Sonata in E ma- jor;" Mozart's "Sonata in E minor, (K. 304); Franck's "Sonata in A major;" Szymanowski's "La Fontaine d'Arethuse" and DeFalla's "Ritual Fire Dance."

It's so easy to turn on a light in an un- occupied room or a clothes closet or the attic of your home - then forget it. And that light burning needlessly may go un- noticed for hours. Ordinarily this wouldn't be too impor- tant ..'. perhaps half-a-cent's worth of electricity wasted. But that light in the clothes closet burns COAL. Electricity requires coal and manpower and trans- portation and other critical resources for its manufacture. And today ANY waste of electricity is serious. The Government asks everyone to con- serve electricity, even though it is not rationed and there is no shortage in this area. Save VOLUNTARILY, whenever and wherever you can - in home and store and office. Michigan's youngest generation is hard at its wartime job of learning to be good and useful citizens. We've allcome to think of a good education for our chil- dren as the natural birthright of young Americans-but building up and admin- istering a school system as fine as Michigan's is a gigantic task, Well over a million students are en- rolled each year in Michigan's schools and colleges. There are 8,226 primary schools, 1,002 secondary schools and 70 colleges and universities. The range of studies runs from kindergarten games through the three "R's" to the most advanced scientific and sociological research. Thousands of teachers are devoting their lives to this work - and to them goes much of the credit for its success, as well as to the administrators of each institution, to local and county school boards, and to the Michigan Department of Public Instruction. We of the Greyhound Lines take the same pride as all others in Michigan in our State's educational achievements. We know that our own organization is aiding the school system both with tax support and transportation service. Those of us whose children are benefit- ing directly from the splendid schooling afforded them feel doubly proud. In wartime even more than in peace- time, the things that draw us all together, that unify our efforts, that make us good neighbors in every sense, are the things that count most heavily, Both good education and good transpor- tation have decisive parts to play in shaping the present as well as the future of Michigan in the post-war world. and the winters to 4.,£ '4f Pubhi olled in Cooperation wilth DARD come.
