Pupils Stage Strike
Over Bulding Veto
PORT HURON, Mich., May 1-(")
-Students at four local schools, dis-
gruntled by failure of voters to ap-
prove a school building program, left
their classes today to stage a mass
demonstration.
A total of 2,716 pupils in Port
Huron High School and three junior
highs were dismissed from classes
after demonstrations interrupted
school work.
The "strikers" continued their pro-
test meeting in downtown areas.
Voters Tuesday failed to give the
required two-thirds majority to a
proposal to increase the tax limita-
tion to 191/2 mills to provide funds for
construction of new schools.
McLaughlin are in the cast of the
comedy "Girls Must Talk," which was
adapted and directed by Lucy Chase
Stephenson. The plot revolves around
a group of models in a store window.
The cast of "The Neighbors" in-
cludes Patricia Owens, Betty Bloom-
quist, Peggy Cummings, Audrey Ene-
low, Serene Sheppard, Larry Darling,
Jack Iskin and Shirley Pope. The
play, directed by Jim Bob Stephen-
son, combines comedy and pathos in
the story of a self-centered commun-
ity facing an important problem. I
"Rehearsal," with Janet Bancroft,
Harriet Rohr, Fay Hansen, Kathryn
Volkman, Harriet Risk and Phyllis
McVoy, directed by Janine Robinson,
is a comedy about the rehearsal of aI
master dramatic offering.
Directed and staged by students in
the advanced course in dramatics,
the three productions will be present-
ed as a laboratory bill of plays, ad-
mission free. Tickets may be obtained
at the boxoffice of the Lydia Men-
delssohn Theatre from 10 a.m. to 8
p.m. Monday. Mail orders will be ac-
cepted but tickets must be called for
at the box office Monday.
UA W Protests
Price Increase
DETROIT, May 1-(1)-The CIO
United Auto Workers, through Presi-
dent Walter P. Reuther, today
planned a protest against an OPA al-
lowance of "a second round" of auto-
mobile price increases.
The OPA Tuesday raised retail
prices of General Motors Corp. cars1
$16 to $60 to compensate for wage in-
creases in the industry. The boost
was in addition to an earlier ceiling
increase which Reuther said averaged
$150 to $250 above the pre-war car
price.
"OPA explains that most of the in-
crease reflects engineering changes
and improvements," Reuther said in,
a statement. "It appears that they
(the manufacturers) have found a
loophole for turning normal peace-
time practice into a profitable
racket under government price con-
trol."
He contended that yearly changes
in models were customary before the
war but that it was not "peacetime
practice", to reflect these technical
developments in higher prices.

Perkins Attends Mid-West'
Meeting on Civil Service
John A. Perkins, assistant profes-
sor of political science, is attending

'The General Library is now ex-
pecting shipments from the Library
of Congress of books and journals I
printed in Europe and South Ameri-
ca during the war," Warner G. Rice,'
Director of the University Library
said in a recent interview.
The Library of Congress is now
distributing to various libraries
throughout the country, duplicates
of more than 300,000 literary pieces,
collected by their representatives
who worked in close association with
the Army during the last years of
the war, he said. This material re-
presents a considerable portion of
the literature published abroad dur-
ing the war.
"A main problem has been the dis-
tribution of foreign acquisitions
among the research libraries-an ex-
tremely complicated process. The
present plan divides material into
250 categories. Each research library
has been given priorities according+
to its requests for materials in par-
ticular fields, the strength of the
several collections in the libraries,
and a fair geographic distribution.
The purpose of the plan is not to
disperse materials as widely as pos-
sible, but to make good libraries
better!", he explained.

Bus. Ad. School
Delays C Ruling
The School of Business Adminis-
tration has not yet ruled whether it
will adopt a C average requirement
similar to those of the Engineering
and Literary Colleges, Prof. Herbert
F. Taggart said yesterday.
If the school should decide to put
the requirement into effect, he point-
ed out, it would affect very few stu-
dents, since veterans, exempt from
the ruling, in other colleges, compose
more than 90 per cent of the school's
enrollment.
