Perhaps it's because pouring molt- en iron into molds in a foundry isn't far different from pouring batter in- to muffin tins, or hot gravy into 4a gravy boat, when it comes to spilling. Anyhow, 12 women moulders in an automotive foundry are doing nearlyj as good a job as their men predeces- sors when-it-comes to production, and are producing less scrap, according to the auto industry's monthly Automo- tive War Production. Until now, it's explained, the foun-, dry part of an automotive plant hasj been considered strictly man's do- main. Women moulders were out of the question, partly because the' weights to be lifted were too heavy for them.' But with the manpower shortage what it is, and women proving adept in other industrial jobs they never before had tackled, one automotive plant recently installed some weight lifting machinery in its foundry. Then employed women. In many other ways, it's said, war industry plants have been adjusting things so women could take over heavy mechanical machinery jobs. Besides such mechanical aids as load lifters, conveyors and chain hoists have been installed. One plant put in revolving jigs to help women riveters rotate the heavy wing sections of airplanes. The giant presses used in forming automobile parts have been equipped with safety devices, so wo- men can handle them. And automa- tic lift trucks are enabling women to serve as stock handlers in several plants. And it's an ordinary thing these days, it's said, to see women operat- ing cranes. Women, too 'are driving heavy trucks, working on drafting boards in tool designing departments; and sharpening cutting tools.

Rays' Tajtte i-s T'o Be x Dance Style Tonight Independents Revise Council For Duration War Committees To Be Set Up In Dormitories, League Houses; WAA, Assembly To Meet In line with the general campus trend towards a revised wartime schedule, the independent women's Assembly Board held its first regular meeting Wednesday to set up a War Activities Committee in each dormi- tory and League house, according to Doris Barr, '44, president. Under the new system, each dor- mitory and League house will have their individual house war commit- tee with a chairman chosen who -will be responsible for house participa- tion in war activities. Assembly Enlarged Assembly has been enlarged to in- clude all nine dormitory presidents representing Stockwell, Mosher-Jor- dan, Adelia Cheever, Day, Geddes, Hill, Ingalls, and Washtenaw Houses. On Tuesday evening, the annual Assembly's Fortnight Visitation Pro- gram will take place. At this tine,, members of Senior Society and the executive Assembly Board will go around to each dormitory to discuss activities in the League and answer questions in regard to the various opportunities offered to women stu- dents there. Because there are 68 League hous- es this year, it will be impossible for the group to get around to each of them. However, at 5 p.m. Tuesday, Nov. 23, in cooperation with the WAA, all of the League House presi- dents and house athletic managers will meet at the League to discuss the new zoning plan to be put into effect.I In keeping with the Assembly's de- cision to become enlarged, eight more Council members will be selected from the sixty-eight house presi- dents, one to represent each zone.

Enough mysterious discus- sion about "a boy I know," who's-head and shoulders over the rest of the class because he "talks in terms of Plato." Enough of the awed tones, the hushed admiration, the self-conscious reticence in the presence of the stu- dent who has some unidentified link with Beauty and Eternity and all the other capitalized abstracts, What is this myth which has sprung up in Ann Arbor about "intellec- tuas?' Who decided in the first place that someone was an "intellectual" because he understood philosophy? Whose idea was it to set apart from the others the student who read poetry with obvious relish? And who started the rumor that the intellect-"the true intellet"-is expressed only in the profound? We Are All 'Intellects' We are all of us "intellectuals"-the English major and the engineer, the guy with an A in Philosophy 1,000and the girl with a C in Pol Sci L We are intellectuals--and here the quotes may be dropped-because we are learning a thing or two-We are intellectuals because, in the fulfillment of our smallest assignments, we are using.our minds and our mental resources. We areintellectuals because we are students. And now the retort oomes back, "That's what you think." Yes, that's what we think, We think so because we know that anyone who's here only for purposes other than those academic doesn't belong here. He is not an intellectual. We think so because more and more we've come to know people whose interest in "ars, scientia, veritas" goes much deeper than the surface. Has No Confinements - - This ixitelectualism does not confine itself to the classroom. Nor does it lurk alone in the hidden corners of the library. Nor does it refuse to mingle with our daily activities. As long as five or ten girls can gather in one room to discuss religion, as long as three English majors can collaborate on the interpretation of an obscure line, as long as dinner conversation can drift of its qwn accord over to the academic side-we are all of us intellec- tuals. And oh the conversations whihh the "intellectual" has provoked! How many."Intellectual" ears- must burn each day, each hour, each minute, as the mystified student body takes to discussing the haunts and habits of this exclusive dharacter. llnough "f this slavery to "stereotyplsm"-enough of this respect for reputation and rumor.. Our creative ability-our scientific curiosity-our most sincere efforts-they are as nothing Utntil we have cast aside this mis- conception and faced the next fellow in the knowledge that his intellect is no more Intellectual than ours. t- SMOOTH? - Yes ma am! of skrts anid s eates can't be bbat.
