ViIlow Run
Prof. Carr's Classes
To Participate in Study
Of Social Adjustment
Students of Prof. L. J. Carr's 9 and
o'clock sociology classes will take
,rt in the Willow Run Study Pro-
ct, interviewing workers in their
me settings near Ypsilanti, accord-
g to Mr. James Stermer, director.
This project, he said, "is a study of
e adjustment cycle in a period of
cial transition, or a problem in
cial change. The impact of this
ange can be found in the fact that
e social and academic maladjust::
mts studied in students who have
ed in this area for a short time are
mparable with social and academic
aladjustments typical of industrial
mmunities which have existed for
'e or six years."
In the spot picked out for the study
nich is one square mile in area,
ree miles east of Ypsilanti, there
re 72 dwellings in 1939, 450 in Oc-
ber 1942, and 629 in May, 1943. In
dition to these independent dwell-
gs consisting of tents, trailers, base-
ents and shacks, there are govern-
mt built homes.
Fifty percent of the population isI
3m Michigan, while the remainder
present 36 states and 20 foreign
untries.

Mr. James Stermer, director of
he Willow Run Study Project, is
ery eager to have students who
ave worked in the bomber plant
iscuss their experiences with him.
Students who are willing to do
his will contribute valuable in-
ormation to this sociology project.

For the first time in its history, O
Gamma Delta, an organization of
Missouri- Lutheran students, will
have its own center (above) for
religious and social activities at
1511 Washtenaw.
Recently purchased by the Mich-
igan District of this church body,
the center will be called the Uii-
versity Lutheran Chapel. The house
will contain a chapel, a service-
men's center, a social center for
students, living quarters for the
pastor and his wife, office rooms,
Student Begins
College Career
Via Mailman
Students can go to college via the
mails, as Frances Mayse, an invalid
Detroit girl, has discovered.
Frances has enrolled in two Uni-
versity Extension Service correspon-
dence courses, first year college Eng-
lish and Spanish, as the first step
toward her college degree. She can
complete her entire freshman year
by this means but does not yet know
how she will finish her college pro-
gram.
Paralyzed and confined to a wheel
chair as a result of a driving accident
five years ago when she broke her
neck, Frances continued her educa-
tion with the help of visiting teach-
ers and was graduated last June from
Northwestern High School.
Another correspondent student is
70-year-old Mrs. Mary C. Lewis of
Detroit, who wrote to the Correspon-
dence Study Department that the
study required by the course has
kept her from worrying about the
war. Mrs. Lewis has been bedridden
for several years.

and a kitchen for student suppers.
The 17-room house, formerly
used as the Alice Palmer coopera-
tive, will be completely renovated
within the next few weeks, the Rev.
Alfred Schieps said yesterday. The
first floor has been completed and
is now being used for student ac-
tivities. Services will be held at
11 a.m. today, and at 5:30 p.m. the
students will meet for supper and
a social hour.
The Rev. Schieps, who began his
work last fall on campus, was the
first full-time University pastor to
serve students of the Evangelical
Lutheran Church of the Missouri
Synod. Prior to his service at Mich-
igan, the Rev. Schieps was pastor
of Calvary Church at Lincoln, Neb.,
for three years. He was graduated
from Concordia Theological Sem-
inary at St. Louis in 1937 and in
1940 he received his master of arts
degree from the University of Ne-
braska.

The conditions of sanitation and

vernmet homes have proper sani-

pendeirt dwellings have not had

Kournakoff
To Lecture
Veteran To Discuss
Red Army Strategy
Capt. Sergei N. Kournakoff, who
fought in the Russian Imperial Ar-
my as a cavalry subaltern in the first
World War and who fought against
the Red Army for almost three years
will speak at 8 p.m. Saturday in the
Rackham Auditorium. His topic will
be "The Red Army and Its Strategy."
Capt. Kournakoff paid with defeat
and exile for a knowledge of the
fighting qualities of the Soviets. At
the time of the Civil War he knew
only that his side was losing. He
fought the Red Army from the Do-
netz Basin to the arid sands of Cen-
tral Asia, near the Afghan border.
After the war he made it his busi-
ness to understand why his side had
lost the war. He studied the Red
Army, following its battles, reading
its books, its newspapers and learn-
ing about its developments day by
day for almost twenty years.
He is the author of "Savage Squad-
rons" and "Russia's Fighting Forces."
He has written both technical and
popular articles on the Russian forc-
es.
Capt. Kournakoff is speaking un-
der the auspices of the National
Council for American-Soviet Friend-
ship. Prof. John F. Shepard is chair-
man of the Ann Arbor branch. Prof.
Everett S. Brown will introduce the
speaker. Tickets for the lecture are
now on sale.

Foreign Students COEDS ANSWER C A L L!

The International Center will hold
a reception in honor of foreign stu-
dents from 8 to 11 p.m. Wednesday at
the Center.
Heading the reception will be Dr.
Esson Gale, director of the Interna-
tional Center; and Mrs. Gale. Others
in the line will be members of the
Board of Governors and other pro-
minent officials.
Invitations have been sent to all
foreign students at the University,
townspeople interested in the Center
and American friends of the foreign
students.
Refreshments will be served.

Terming the response last week
"immense" Mrs. Robert Buron, di-
rector of the community USO Service
Club to be opened soon, announced
yesterday that women may register
again this week from 3 to 5 p.m. to-
morrow. Tuesday and Wednesday.
and from 7 to 9 Wednesday night.
Harris Hall will be open to both
women and servicemen every after-
noon and night, and each girl may
spend as much time at the Club as
she wishes. Members will be required
to sign up for a certain number of
hours each week also.
Because of the large number of wo-

a i

men who have registered, Mrs. Bur-
ton said that probably a system of
rotation would be used for all plan-
ned parties and dances. In this way
each member would be able to attend
her share of the parties although she
would not be able to attend them all.
The work of revamping and redec-
orating Harris Hall, headquarters for
the new Club, is being continued, and
as yet no date has been set for the
formal opening.
Each girl in order to qualify for
,membership must present two letters
of recommendation, preferably one
from a clergyman.
