t' Press Had
Beginins in
Work of 1859
Early Ventures Grew
Into Large Collection
By MYRON MARKS
It all started back in 1859.
In that year, "Tables of Victoria",
the first book published by the Uni-
versity, excepting catalogues, appear-
ed, marking the beginnings of the
University f Michigan Press. This
volume was an astronomical work by
Prof. Franz Brunnow, son-in-law of
President Tappan.
Humanistic Series
The publications movemet re-
ceived fresh impetus in 1904, when
the first of the Humanistic Series ap-
peared, "Roman Historical Sources
and Institutions."
Sponsor of the Humanistic series
was Francis W. Kelsey who saw each
work in, the series through to the
press until his death in 1927. Until
then, the series was truly a one-man
show. It has now grown into a col-
lection of forty-eight volumes.
In later years, the Graduate School
took over the publications and in
1930 the University of Michigan Press
was established.
Scholar In Mind
Among the university presses of
the nation, the University of Michi-
gan Press is quite different, in that
it is confined almost entirely to of-
ficial publications and the results of
investigations; the scholar is always
in mind, Dr. Frank E. Robbins, direc-
tor of the University Press, said. A
broad range of subjects has been
built up, from ancient life and let-
ters to industrial relations. A large
majority of the publications were
written or edited by University per-
sonnel.
Scholarly publications are directed
by Eugene S. McCartney, and the
main office is located in Angell Hall.
The official publications office is situ-
ated at 311 Maynard in the Univer-
sity Press Building donated by Dexter
M. Ferry, Jr., of Detroit. They arc
directed by Walter A. Donnelly.
System of Control
Control of the University Press is
vested in an Executive Committee
headed by Dr. Robbins, who is also
Assistant to the President. This com-
mittee has general Charge over the
system, while the Committee on
Scholarly Publications decides what
is and is not to be published. The
University Press does no printing, and
one of the functions of the purchas-
ing department is to decide what
printing company to entrust with
each job, after thc Excutiv Com-
mittee has laid down the specifica-
tions.
What started as a one-man show
~ has become a, full-time labor.

HONOR STUDENT SECRETS:
Hibernation Accusations False,
Phi Beta Kappa Students Insist

By HELEN ZORN
and B. J. LOBENSKY
"Eager beaver", "grind", or any
other label implying dauntless loyal-
ty to one's books according to honor
student study methods is strictly non-
synonymous with "Phi Bete," mem-
ber of Phi Beta Kappa, national hon-
orary fraternity.
"To pull an A on a chemistry final,"
Elizabeth Ann Campbell, '46, goes to,
the movies the night before the ex-
amination after studying all week,
while Robert M. Epstein, '47, reserves
two hours for a game of pool to re-
lax before a physics test. Eugene
Malitz, '47, is literally "singing his
way into medical school," because
song before study is a guarantee for
setting yourself in a good mood, and
disposition, Malitz insists, "helps to
determine the results."
Intensive concentration, the abil-
ity to assimilate material quickly,
or as Miss Campbell put it, "know-
ing the knack of mastering details"
are the keys to straight A records.
Both Miss Campbell and Helen J.
Perry, '4-7, advocate sleep, or at
least a non-study program after
11 P.M.
Distractions, including members of
the opposite sex and Lone Ranger
programs, make way into the life of
every Phi Bete. Epstein and Malitz,
however, prefer distractions for com-
plete living, while Miss Campbell
finds musical programs stimulating
when memorizing formulas.
Extra curricular activities have
taken no ill-effects scholastically. Ep-
stein is president of Phi Sigma Del-
ta and Malitz belongs to Choral Un-
ion, Varsity Glee Club, and the Hillel
Foundation.
Marjorie Billmeier, '46, another
member of the "chosen few" has di-

vulged that the method of study
which has proven 'most successful for
her is asking herself questions over
the material she is studying. Study
as you go along, she said, is the
best advice.
Get at least twelve hours of sleep
the night before ,your exam," Yuma
Stahmer, '46, advised, "and walk
into your exam the next day with
the frame of mind that you do not
care whether you pass the test or
not." As a final suggestion, she
said that it was not a very good
idea to leave all of your studying
for the night before your final, but
to spread it out over a period of
time.
"Just as there are three laws of
thermo - dynamics," Kenneth Scott,
'46, said, "there are also three laws
a good student should adhere to -
work, more work, and still more
work."
However, he pointed out that no
one should subordinate his personal-
ity and individuality to these three
laws. Social life is very important
to a student, he added, and each per-
son should join an organization of
some kind.
