Camtpus Talent
Makes Musical
Record Debut
Greek 1etter Groi>s
Perforii for Posterity
Local talent got a boost yesterday
when a mobile recording company
called on various campus fraternities
and sororitics anid made records of
their songs and outstanding solo per-
formers.
Contacted by Johnny Boyle, direc-
tor of the company, members of Sig-
ma Chi, Sigma Alpha Epsilon, Phi
Delta Theta, Kappa Alpha Theta, Al-
pha Chi Omega, and Pi Beta Phi
made permanent souvenirs of their
Greek letter days. Dr. Hardin Van
Deursen's choir was also given a
chance to perform before the micro-
phone and a minute later hear them-
selves sing.
At the Sigma Chi louse, several re-
cordings were made of Jim Evans and
Nando Gutierrez, pianists, and Bob
Howland, clarinetist. Recordings were
also madle of Howland with Dick
Johnson, pianist, acclaimed by Boyle
as one of the top performers in tlh
field.
Boyle, who started making record-
ings in 1936 when a student at the
University of Illinois, has carried on
his work at 87 universities since that
time. When he discovers special tal-
ent, he tries to play it up and help
the student break into the profes-
sional field.

ment of stringed instruments in the
School of Music, will give a violin re-
cital at 8:30 p.m. unday in the Lydia

Italian iaster, Handel, Beethoven,
Chausson, and Ross Lee Finney. The
work of Finney, an American com-
poser who is professor of composition
at Smith College, will be a first per-
formance.

ON ITOLICE- FORCE -----
Jap Women Enter Public Affairs

By I'HYLLIS KAYE
"The fact that Japanese women are
now allowed on the Tokyo police
force and that 75 women candidates
are up for election to the Japanese
Diet is not too surprising," Dr. Frank
L. Huntley of the policital science and
English departments stated yesterday.
Dr Huntley spent a number of years
in Japan teaching English at Kyoto
Imperial University.
The Japanese woman has occu-
pied a position of more power than
most Western people give her credit
for, he said. In feudal countries
women have been working side by
side with men for centuries. In
the United States women only be-
came active in industry recently.
The Western peoples consider it a
sign of emancipation for women to
do useful work outside of the home.
We are merely rediscovering a
fact of which many of the older na-
tions have never lost sight.
"Whereas," Dr. Huntley continued,
"the Japanese woman occupies an
inferior state according to social phil-
osophy, she really has influence and
wields power in the home. This is
natural in a country where the family
is the prime social unit."
Examples may be cited of the posi-
tion women have held in Japanese
life, he declared. First of all, Japa-
nese literature shows a singular con-
tribution by women. There were out-
standing female writers as far back
as the 9th and 10th centuries. In the
Western world, it wasn't until the
19th century that women started
writing very much, and then they
st rove to hid their sex by using mas-
culine names.
"Again," Dr. Huntley explained,
"the ,Japanese woman generally has
complete control of the family
budge t. Many an American woman
would give her eye-teeth for such.
domestic power."
The Japanese women, he said, have
gained some of their power by allow-
ing the men to think, in their superior

way, that they are the more impor-
tant sex, and by not constantly de-
manding emancipation. Quietly,
they have made many literary and
social contributions to their country.
Since the introduction of Western
industry, Japanese women have worn
trousers, worked in the factories, run
streetcars and done many such jobs.
They have worked for a few years
and then gotten married.
"However," Dr. Huntley added,
"the new element in all this is that
Japanese women are beginning to
look on their jobsras careers and
are coming into fields occupied
heretofore exclusively by men."
This .change, he stated, will bring
about a demand for better educational
facilities for women, since those al-
ready in existence lag way behind
the facilities for men.
On the whole, the Japanese woman
has differed from the Chinese wom-
an in that she is inordinately shy,
does not give the appearance of
emancipation, and has achieved her
personality by constant subjection
and denial.
Two exceptions to this rule are

biography, Facing Two Ways, Dr.
Huntley recommended as healthy

and Mme. Sugimoto, author of
Daughter of the Samurai.
"Therefore," Dr. Huntley conclud-
ed, "that the Japanese woman, who
has always been obsessed with the
idea of remaining in the background,
has decided to enter public life openly
is good for the whole Japanese peo-
ple."

New Army Policy
WASHINGTON, March 14-(/')-
The War Department said today that
overseas service no longer will be re-
quired of men whose families already
have suffered one death in the Army.
And when one or more immediate
members of a family have been killed
or died as a result of wounds, acci-
dents or disease connected with their
service, remaining members in service
will be stationed, upon their applica-
tion, in the United States at posts
nearest their homes.
The ruling also applies to families
who have a member classified as
missing in action.

:COLY:
Overpublicized
Music Therapy
Is Dangerous
By MARY BRUSH
"Grave danger" to progress in the
use of music therapy as treatment for
insanity was predicted yesterday by
Prof. Martha Colby, of the psychol-
ogy department, if the work in this
field is over-publicized and attempt-
ed by improperly qualified people.
"The danger is that people will
regard this as an independent ther-
apy," Prof. Colby said, pointing out
that it can only be used effectively
in cooperation with highly skilled
scientists and musicians who are fa-
miliar with the whole background
of "pure" or laboratory research.
There is a prolific but very technical
literature in this field, she said.
"What is needed at the moment is
more of this type of work, carried on
under carefully controlled conditions,
over a long period of time," Dr. Colby
explained. Though there has been
very little support for this work in
the past, she noted that Michigan
State College last summer instituted
a specificaly designed training pro-
gram in the field,
Dr. Colby pointed out that two for-
mer students here, trained in physics,
physiology, psychology and music are
now doing interesting theraputic
work in connection with war casual-
ties.
"Psychological and physiological
responses to sound patterns are very
generalized, including the whole or-
ganism, so that music therapy might
logically arouse any patterns of past
experience with which they have
been connected," she explained. "The
music pattern must be very skillfully
selected for the individual case."
