THE i~MICHIGAN 1OAILY PAC~E F Professor Says Rocket Travel Still Doubtful (Continued from Page 1) are strictly in the realm of specula- tion," Prof. Maxwell declared. Definite Meaning "It does, however, have a definite astronomical meaning. This, as was pointed out before, is in respect to measurement of distances. Radar does not hold the key to the secrets of the universe, that is, to the exis- tence or absence of life on related ce- lestial bodies." In fact, Prof. Maxwell pointed out, it is doubtful whether any form of life, as we now conceive it, does exist on any other planet than ours. Of all the heavenly bodies known to man, some are either as yeunsplidified and existing as liquid masses, or not yet sufficiently cool to permit life Rare Atmospheres Others have atmospheres too rare to support life, or are too small tC exert sufficient gravitational pull tc keep objects on their surfaces, h said. Even on Mars or Venus, abou which most speculation centers, th( existence of life is doubtful. Mars' at- mosphere is too rarified, while that o Venus is too dense. Classifying all talk of inter-plae- tary travel and communication as "Buck Rogerish," Prof. Maxwell ad- vised that everyone try to maintain a balance between "scientific fact and romantic speculation." JGP.O. (Continued from Page 1) rehearsals will begin shortly, accord- ing to Rose Derderian, choral direc- tor. Committee members will be noti- fied of their meetings by the chair- man of their group. The presentation of "There's Room for All" will mark the 38th anniver- sary of Junior Girls Play, which is now a campus tradition and the highlight of Junior women's activi- ties. The first JGPlay was performed in 1904 and became an annual event un- til the first three years of the war, when it was discontinued. "Jabberwocky," presented by the women of the class of '45, revived the old tradition, and lastyear's play "Take It From There" confirmed the decision that JGPlay was really bacl to stay. (Continued from Page 1) publicity, program, student govern- ment, state, and local, national and international committees will be pre- sented. All eligible students interested in working on any of these commit- tees are urged to attend this import- ant meeting. The group has received letters and informative material from the state FEPC, as a result of the recent cam- pus campaign, asking for contribu- tions to the Michigan organization. This proposal and methods of fight- ing the Southern filibuster against the Senate FEPC bill will also be con- sidered. Cooperation with various student and town groups, including AVC and League of Women Voters, on such issues as the housing problem, is be- ing planned by the group.

Bureau To Give inforination. on Summer Jobs Registration for summer jobs will be explained to students interested in obtaining summer work by Dr. T. Luther Purdom, Director of the Uni- versity Bureau of Appointments and Occupational Information at 4 p.m. Tuesday in Rm. 205 Mason Hall in- stead of Monday, as previously an- nounced. The Bureau, Dr. Purdom said, has already received requests for student help from camps and resorts. Ap- 'roximately 500 letters, pointing out he availability of student help, were nailed to summer camps and resorts phis week. Although many students express a Desire to have a summer job in the West, most requests, Dr. Purdom said, ;ome from Michigan. Most western 'amps, he said, can obtain help from ocal schools and colleges, and the ;ost of transportation usually does mot make it worthwhile for a student o go very great distances. The owners of a Texas dude ranch, iowever, wrote the Bureau that their taff had always been largely made up f students from eastern colleges. 'hey said that they liked to give stu- lents the opportunity to enjoy the fa- ,1lities of a Texas ranch and earn' money at the same time. Activities Poll I To Determinne Sota N eeds Ballots for the Alpha Phi Omega student activities poll, an attempt to determine students' social prefer- ences, will be distributed to dormi- tories, coops, fraternities and sorori- ties tomorrow and Tuesday. By giving the student body a chance to express its opinions on pro- posed and existing campus activities, the service fraternity hopes to obtain a reliable index of student attitudes towards campus functions. The sev- enteen questions on the campus-wide poll are intended to reveal informa- tion which will be helpful to Univer- sity organizations and committees in planning student activities. Favorable response to the question of whether or not students would like to have a carnival, William De Grace, who is in charge of the project, pointed out, might prompt an organi- zation to sponsor one. An organized cheering section for basketball, hockey and other sports might be started if students indicate that they would like to have it. The ballots will be collected on the diagonal and at the engineering arch Wednesday. A sample ballot will be published in The Daily and may be -used by stu- dents in place of the regular form.
