Second row,, left to right: John Horeth, Donald G. Burkhardt, June Gumerson, Larry Zellman. The Univer- sity's Fresh Air Camp, recently made a subsidiary of the Institute for Human Adjustment, is, every summer, a haven for approximately 230 Detroit and Southeastern Michigan boys. Many of these young- sters find difficulty in making social adjustment at home, and under guidance of University student counselors and trained psychologists they are channelled into activities designed to alleviate their home- niurtured complexes. The camp is governed by University educators and sociologists. ASSEMBLY ACTI VITIES: * * * Students To Manage Campaign For Fresh Air Camp Support ePP (Editor's Note: This is the third in a series of three articles on the University's Fresh Air Camp. Making the Fresh Air Camp an integral part of student activity has been the byword of this year's drive for $3,000 to help support the Uni- versity's summer enterprise. Staff Banquet Honors Retiring Faculty Member Prof. Felix Pawlowski, 69, of the department of aeronautical engineer- ing, who will retire in July, was hon- ored at a dinner given for him Sat- urday by the staff and alumni of the aeronautical engineering department. Prof. awlowsk), who came to the University in 1912, taught the first three courses in aeronautical engi- neering offered in this University and supervised the organization of tie aeronautical engineering department under the direction of Prof. Herbert C. Sadler, then chairman of the De- partment of Naval Architecture and Marine Engineering. First in U.S. Prof. Pawlowski's courses in aero- nautical engineering were the first' leading to a degree offered in the United States. Prof. Pawlowski, now on retire- ment furlough, plans to leave soon for a visit in California, after which hie will go to Pau, France, where he will make his permanent home. He tells of taking students on baloon trips and helping to organize the Aeronautical Society and the Glide- Club. In 1930, the year that the De- partment of Aeronautical Engineer- in~g was separated from the Depart- ment of Naval Architecture and Ma- rine Engineering, Prof. Pawlowski was appointed Guggenheim professor of aeronautical engineering. Corporation Consultant Speaks Robert J. Woods, consulting engi- neer for the Bell Aircraft Corpora- tion at Buffalo was toastmaster at the dinner given in Prof. Pawlowski's honor. Speakers at the dinner in- cluded James D. Redding, manager of the aeronautical department of the Society of Automotive Engineers in New York City; Arthur A. Kos- cinski, federal judge from Detroit; Leo Nowicki, former lieutenant-gov- ernor of Michigan; Raymond C. Blaylock, chief engineer of the Col- umbus division of the Curtiss-Wright Corporation; Prof. Wilbur C. Nelson, head of the Department of Aeronau- tical Engineering at Iowa State Col- lege; Prof. E. W. Conlon and Dr. A. M. Kuethe of the Department .f Aeronautical Engineering; and Prof. J. A. Van den Broek of the Depart- ment of Engineering Mechanics. AdminiĀ± frators Attend Meeting Problems of small high schools in this part of the state will be discussed today at the Union at the spring meeting of The Town and County Administrative Roundtable of South- eastern Michigan today at the Union. With about 100 scl ool administra- tors from towns of less than 2,500 s> Conducted it previous years by the camp committee under the di- rection of Prof. Ferdinand Mene- fee of the engineering mechanics department, the campaign has now been placed permanently in the hands of Assembly and will be managed entirely by students. Assisted by the men's residence halls, Assembly has arranged for 480 persons to man 32 polls placed stra- tegically around campus. One male and one female student will be watch- ing each tag stand throughout the day. Handling the brunt f, the 'organi- zational work, Assembly women have strung approximately 15,000 tags and are responsible for distribution and collection of the coin pails. Letters of solicitation to Ann Ar- bor merchants have received a hearty response, it was reported last night by P. A. Ostafin of the sociology de- partment, who is also co-ordinating men's dormitory participation. Allowing no grass to grow under- foot, the girls have collected al- most $400 in pre-tag day contribu- tions. Group donations from Mo- sher and Jordan Halls, the Senior Wishing Well, and Ann Arbor merchants supplement the earn- ings from Assembly's stationery sale. Starting the ball rolling in the male quarter, West Quad Council, along with the five main member houses, last night pledged $100. Broken down, this figure represents $50 from the Council and $10 apiece from Wenley. Allen R3umsey, Lloyd, Chicago and Winchell Houses. Campaign publicity for the Uni- versity was undertaken by the Union and managed by Harley Fortier. Fred Matthaie, IFC president, distributed posters among local business estab- lishments. A year's budget for the camp totals approximately $30,000, allowing for no sinking fund. Of this sum, more than one-third comes from student, faculty, townspeople and statewide contributions. The remainder' of the cost is met by the University in edu- See FRESH AIR, Page 2 .Wolverine Sale Declared Illegal By State Court Unauthorized Transfer Of Restaurant Charged The state Supreme Court yesterday upset a contract by which the Michi- gan Wolverine Students' Cooperative had sold its South State Street pro- perty to a local merchant. Officers of the Wolverine coopera- tion sued to set aside the deed on the ground that the transfer had not been authorized by the membership. The Supreme Court upheld the con- tentions of the Wolverine. Organized in 1937 The Michigan Wolverine, organized in 1937, was an outgrowth of a coop- erative group which had functioned during the depression years in the basement of Lane Hall. The State Street property, which was acquired in 1937, served as a club room and restaurant from 1937 to 1944 when the directors made the transfer which the Supreme Court declared void yesterday. At one time, the Wolverine membership was more than 600. Prof. Hobart Coffey of the Law School, who acted as counsel for the Wolverine with the firm of DeVine and DeVine, declined to comment on the decision; he said he had not yet seen a copy of the Supreme Court's opinion. Prof. Coffey said that the Wolverine's case had been based en- tirely on the theory that the directors in making the sale had exceeded their powers. There were no allegations of fraud or misrepresentation. Corporation Contracted To Sell The victory of the Wolverine in the present case does not mean the State Street building will be reopened as a restaurant, Prof. Coffey said, because the corporation is under con- tract to sell the property. The pro- ceeds of the sale will be held in trust by the directors for the benefit of a' new "Wolverine." Iftthe corporation is dissolved, the assets will constitute a trust fund forthe benefit of Uni- versity students. The annual meeting of the directors and members of the Wolverine will take place May 27. At that time, the directors will decide the future policy of the organization. Nine To Play Irish Michigan's baseball team will resume action on home grounds today, opposing Notre Dame at 3:30 p.m. at Ferry Field, Both the Wolverines and the Irish have lost only one contest to date. Cliff Wise will get the call on the mound for Michigan with Bliss Bowman and Earl Block also slated for duty. Appointments to League positions for 1946-47 were announced yesterday at the annual Installation Night held in the Rackham Building. Newly elected members to Mortar Board, Scrolland Senior Society, women's senior honorary societies, were also tapped during the cere- monies. Top offices at the League were giv- en to Ellen Hill, Martha Cook Build- ing, president and Jean Louise Hole, Pi Beta Phi, chairman of Judiciary Council. Other members of the League exec- utive council are Josephine Simp- son, Kappa Alpha Theta, vice-presi- dent; Phyllis Wilman, Delta Gamma, secretary; Carolyn Daley, Cook, trea- surer. In addition, League Council will in- clude Jean Clare, Cook, president of See INSTALLATION, Page 4 Forsythe Cites Parley Views On Health, Vets Education Luckiing There is a growing recognition a- mong educators of the need for more complete and inclusive health edu- cation as opposed to mere health care and treatment, Dr. Warren For- sythe, director of the Health Service, declared yesterday. That is the impression he formed of the general trent in college work at the 24th meeting of the Ameri- can Student Health Association in Minneapolis last week, from which he has just returned. The convention voted to call a Na- tional Conference on College Health to be held in New York next year. This will be the third such meeting, the last one held 10 years ago. Alex- ander Ruthven, president of the Uni- versity, has been asked to head this national meeting, which all colleges all over the country will be invited to attend. (The ASHA conference was a limited, membership meeting,) One of the principal concerns of the conference delegates was the health status of veterans returning to college. They have found, Dr. Forsythe pointed out, that veterans as such are a good deal healthier than non-veterans, that they have less sickness, and that they make fewer calls upon campus health units. * The delegates, he said, were "hannily surprised" to discover that no essential health problen have arisen through the veteran, and are not expected to. This con- tradicts the pessimistic attitude on the returning veteran that many college health authorities previously held More and more colleges, Dr. For- sythe indicated, are setting up and re-organizing their Health Service work, which was all but abandoned in many schools during the war, One of Four Vets Enrolled For every veteran now enrolled in college courses under government, provisions, there are three more ap- proved and waiting to get in, D . Warren Forsythe indicated yesterday. He quoted figures announced by Gen. Omar Bradley, head of the Vet- erans Administration, at the Amer- ican Council on Education meeting in Chicago last week, which Dr. For- sythe attended. Veterans numbering 1,687,000 have been approved for college training. American colleges, many of them crowded now to over-capacity, have thus far enrolled only 455,000 such veterans, '' Scientists vote to Condct Poll o lFl The Association of Univerity of Michigan Scientists voted last night Lewis Asks 7 Per Cent Health Tax By The Associated Press WASHINGTON, May 13 - John L. Lewis today demanded of the na- tion's soft coal operators a seven per cent levy on their gross payroll to create a health and welfare fund. At the average annual wage of $2,500, the gross payroll for the 490,009 bituminous miners would total $1,00,000,900. This would net Lewis $70,009,000 a year if granted. Lewis acted soon after winning the initial round of the long struggle. The operators bowed to his demand for $3,000,000 in holiday pay he con- tended was due. Edward F. MGrady, special gov- ernment conciliator, made public Lewis' demand for the payroll levy and said negotiations today and to- morrow would be devoted to the wel- fare fund and safety proposals. Operators who declined to be named said unofficially the levy would add 14 cents a ton to the cost of coal at the mines, Government Conciliator Paul W. Fuller said that Lewis' payroll tax demand called .for administration "neither joint nor public." This was taken to mean that Lewis was stick-, ing to his original demand for ex- clusive union control over the funds. The first break in the long stale- mated negotiations came as many of the 400,000 bituminous miners af- filiated with United Mine Workers re-entered the pits for the first time since April 1, under a two-weeks' truce. Bass Appointed to Head State Veteran Group Sam Bass,28, a junior in the Uni- versity Law School, has been named president of the Michigan Student Veterans Association, succeeding Car- los Casta, former preident, a stu- dent at Kalamazoo College who died following an operation last week-end. Bass, former executive vice-presi- dent of the Association, is i native of Chicago. The Association, on record as fav- oring OPA price control and extend- ing rent controls to educationally- critical communities, will hold its next meeting July 13 at Michigan State College, Bass announced. Primary purpose of the meeting will be to discuss means of obtaining re- presentation on the State Veterans Trust Fund Board, he said. The Veterans Association has recommended to the FPHA that fed- eral housing for veterans be made available at the floor rate, $18, Bass asserted. The recommendation was made on an ability-to-pay sliding scale formulated by the FPHA. In addition, the group has recon- mended that pensions to veterans be disregarded in con i~ting family income. It was also requested by the group, at its May 4 meeting that the state's larger higher educational institu- tions liberalize their policies in ac- cepting credits from Michigan's smal- ler schools. (The Michigan College Association at a recent meeting dis- cussed plans for deploying veterans into smaller institutions for the first year or two of their college careers.) Russian informants, feel they have made enough concessions, chiefly on the issues of reparations and colonies, in the discussions of Italy. They feel, these sources said, that it is time for Britain and the United States to give ground. Soviet Foreign Minister Vyacheslav M. Molotov last week abandoned Russian claims to trusteeship in Tripolitania, and offered to scale down his demand for reparations.

Russians Predict Paris Conference To Break Up Soon Reds Feel Western Powers Should Aecede to Trieste, Africaii Demands By The Associated Press PARIS, May 13 - Soviet sources predicted tonight the four-power con- ference of foreign ministers would break up within a few days unless the Western powers acceded to Russian demands on Trieste and North Africa. These sources said the Russians would insist that Trieste be awarded to Yugoslavia. American officials were reported by responsible sources to be equally firm in contending that Italy should get the Adriatic port. The Russians, the Soviet informants said, also would insist upon keep- ing Britain out of Italian North Africa. But British Foreign Secretary Er- nest Bevin, just back from a quick trip to London, was reported fortified with the approval of British and Dominion ministers of his demands Lor a British trusteeship in Cirenaica. The foreign ministers were, reported hammering away again today on their efforts to reach agreement on terms for the Italian peace treaty. Soviet officials, according to the__ Huse Amends Draft Extension; Delays Passage Senate Forced To Act Quickly To Retain Law WASHINGTON, May 13-1P)- With the draft law expiring at mid- night tomorrow, the House tonight tossed the controversial issue back to the Senate by amending stop-gap legislation extending the law to July 1., Disregarding administration warn-+ ings that the action meant the death of selective service, the House ap- proved these amendments to a stop- passed last week extending the law gap measure 'which the Senate had unchanged for 45 days: 1. A ban against induction of fathers. 2. A prohibition against drafting 18 and 10-year-olds and a ban against drafting anyone over 30 The Senate has one day in which to act on the amendments. It pre- viously had sidetracked separate House legislation containing these and other restrictions. The critical parliamentary situa- tion threatening the very existence of Selective Service is caused by the fact the amended measure can be brought up in the Senate tomorrow only by unanimous consent. The Senate is considering strike control legislation which cannot be laid aside if a single member ob- jects, McCormick and Sparkman ex- plained. A number of senators are known to be opposed to the draft extender. Child Care Fund Set for institute State Senate and House finance committees, meeting at Governor Kellys call to consider emergency financial measures, yesterday granted $117,000 to the Michigan Children's Institute, 1447 Washington Heights. The appropriation, according to Institute Director C. F. Ramsay, will be used to take care of the increasing number of dependent and neglected children committed fdr care to the Institute by county probate courts. Approximately 200 children be- tween the ages of one and fourteen years are now on the waiting list, Ramsay said. The appropriation will be used to feed and board them, and to pay the salaries of additional staff members. The institute, an agency of the state government, is the only one of its kind in Michigan. The appropriation, he said, will be alloted in amounts of $17,000 for May and June, and $100,000 for the year beginning July 1. WU Hospital Cooperates In VAMedical Program In response to what he termed a "rapidly increasing need" for psy- chiatrists, Dr. Thornton W. Zeigler, psychologist at the neuropsychiatric institute, said yesterday that Uni- versity hospital is offering a one year course in nsychiatrv for graduat FOOD CONSERVATION PROGRAM: Second Campus Famine Day Will Be Observed By Students SIGMA XI MEETING: Dr. Carey Conreis To Deliver Scientific Fraternity Lecture The second campus famine-day will be observed today in acordance with the Famine Committee's food con- servation program. Although 21 houses have official- ly registered in the program by sbmitting petitions with 427 names to the Famine Committee, it is estimated that more than 1,000 stu- dents will be included in today's famine-day observance. "It's about time every person on campus joined in the food conserva- tion program." Bruce Cooke, chair- man of the committee, said yesterday. "In order to miake the program houses, more than 50 per cent of the sororities, and less than 20 per cent of the active fraternities. Martha Cook and Vaughan House residents will act tonight to bring dormitories into the full conservation program. At general house meetings, members of these dormitories will vote on the adoption of the famine- day program. Several dormitories have already inaugurated waste- elimination campaigns and are work- ing to cut down bread consumption.j One dormitory dietitian has reported that bread deliveries are being cut.' "A Billion Years of Conflict" will be the subject of the annual Sigma Xi lecture to be given by Dr. Carey Croneis, distinguished geologist and president of Belroit College. at 8 p.m. today in the Natural Science Audi- torium.
