PAGE SIX T HE MICHIG.AN DAILY THURSDAY, OCTOBER 24, 194C MIDNIGHT OIL: Crowded Chemistry Classes Necessitate Swing-Shift Labs Campus Highlights Midnight oil is being burned, lit- erally as well as figuratively, by the overflow enrollment in introductory chemistry courses. The 1,750 students in these courses, representing an increase of almost double the pre-war peak, are only an example in the whole story of over- crowding in the literary college, where Law Professors To Talk in East Delegates Will State Judicial Discuss Reforms Unification and reform of the State judicial procedure will be dis- cussed by three members of the Law School faculty who will address the American Bar Association Conven- tion scheduled to start Monday in Atlantic City. Dean E. Blythe Stason, Profs. Ralph W. Aigler and Lewis M. Symes will speak to individual sections of the convention's 30,000 delegates on the unification and reform of speci- fic branches of the law. Dean Sta- son'stopic willrbe the "State Legis- lature in Reform of Administrative Procedure." Prof. Aigler will discuss "Remedies for General Clearance of Land Ti- tles-Statutory Steps," and Prof. Symes will act as chairman of the ABA section on probate law. pressure on facilities for instruction in basic sciences has been particu- larly, intense. Everything is double in the Chem- istry Building nowadays, with stu- dents working on experiments as teams of two rather than individu- ally. Many of these students do their laboratory work in one of the twelve night laboratory classes which have been organized to accommodate the overflow from day classes. Extra Lockers Between classes, students squeeze through the halls between rows of extra lockers necessary for the ex- perimental equipment required by each student. Three hundred of these lockers are Army surplus metal lockers in which students store equip- ment not in use. The crowded situation will be greatly relieved when an addition to the Chemistry Building, now under construction, is completed sometime in 1948. Graduate Students This fall there are 115 graduate students in chemistry, 40 of these act- ing asdpart-time teaching fellows. They direct laboratory work and thus make possible the instruction of the record enrollment in introductory courses. All lectures are given by regular members of the faculty. The increased enrollment 'of grad- uate students has been noted with gratification by several members of the chemistry department faculty.

Observatory telescopes are - now plying the skies in Bloemfontein, South Africa, as well as Pontiac and Ann Arbor. to bring new discoveries in astronomy. On the bottom of the world at Hussey Observatory in Africa, Dr. Richard A. Rossiter of the University staff has made thousands of new dis- coveries in the field of "double stars" with a 28 inch refracting telescope, built especially for the purpose. Miss Hazel Losh of the astronomy department said that the telescope will be set up near Ann Arbor when the South African studies are com- pleted. Study of the sun is done at Mc- Math Observatory on Lage Angelus near Pontiac with special "tower tele- scopes" through which moving pic- tures are taken of the sun. These rare telescopes are the largest now in existence. A projected 99 inch reflector tele- scope will remain uncompleted due to lack of funds. The giant pyrex mirror for the telescrope was cast in July 1936 with the 200 inch disk for the Mt. Palomar telescope. Largest of the University tele- scopes now in operation is the thirty- seven and one-half inch reflector lo- cated at the Ann Street Observatory, devoted exclusively to spectroscopic work.
