False Alarm Wakes
Men at Willow Run
Men of Dorm 3, Willow Village,
were awakened at 6:05 a.m. yester-
day by a fire alarm for a fire that
wasn't there.
Upon investigation, Jerry Wetzel,
house director, and several other
residents, discovered that heat from
smoldering insulation in a locked
furnace room had automatically set
off the alarm.
The fire department arrived on
the scene immediately and the situ-
ation was under control in a matter
of minutes.

enrollment for any one semester in
Detroit has been just under 2,600.
In 1934-35 the total state-wide en-
rollment in extension programs was

of two New York dealers under the
guidance of Mrs. Weibel,
The early Gothic tapestries of the
collection are being exhibited in the
North Gallery of the Alumni Hall
Galleries. Among them is a work en-
titled a "Scene from the Trojan War"
in which the horrors of battle are
depicted in minute detail. Another
colorful French tapestry of pastoral
life demonstrates the lack of perspec-
tive in the early works.
Representative tapestries from all
four centuries are among those which
may be seen in the West Gallery dur-
ing the exhibit. "The Obsequies of
Decius Mus;" a Flemish tapestry of
1640, is an actual reproduction on
cloth of the painting by Rubens.
The South Gallery is filled with
woven works of art of the eighteenth
century. The swordsmanship of Don
Quixote is illustrated in the tapestry
"The Cowardice of Sancho Panza" in
which Sancho Panza is climbing a
tree.
It is estimated that in the manu-
facture .of the ancient tapestries it
took one weaver a year to complete
approximately three square yards of
material. Most of the tapestries on
exhibit in Alumni Hall cover an en-
tire wall of the gallery.
Both the exhibition and Mrs. Wei-
bel's lecture tomorrow are open to
the University and the public in gen-
eral. The Four Centuries of Tapes-'
try Weaving exhibit will continue
through the month of November. The
Alumni Memorial Hall Galleries are
open from 10 a.m. to noon daily ex-
cept Monday and from 2 to 5 p.m. on
Sundays.

Tech nicHints
Garg Sabotage
Delaying Sales
The Michigan Technic, engineering
students' publication, will make its
first fall appearance on campus to-
morrow and Thursday, according to
Milt David, editor.
Delays experienced at the printers
was the reason given for the decision
to push the publication date back
two days. Previously it had been an-
nounced that the Technic would ap-
pear Monday.
The editors of the Technic are now
reported to be investigating the pos-
sibility that frequent delays at the
printers may be the work of over-
zealous Gargoyle salesmen.
Dressed up in a new cover, the first
issue will feature a "Time and Mo-
tion Study" by Arthur Jones. The ar-
ticle is a general analysis of the meth-
ods of promoting greater production
efficiency used by engineers to save
consumers millions of dollars every
year.
Also featured will be a discussion
of "Silicones" by Ted Gier. The ar-
ticle presents a brief historical sum-
mary of the development of silicones,
explains the production flow-sheet
and includes the uses of the new
compounds.
Included in the issue will be an ex-
planation of the construction and op-
eration of heavy-duty airbrake instal-
lations; information of improved
shock-absorbing devices and a dis-
cussion of methods of compressing
electrical circuits.
