cal and Instrumental Music, to be
held here Friday through Sunday,

tra, under the direction of Prof.

Society Plans.
Lincoln Statue
An informal society, the De-
troit Lincoln group, is carrying on
a drive to collect $15,000 by next
December in order to erect a
statue, "Lincoln, the Frontiers-
man," on this campus.
The original bronze statue, sit-
uated on the grounds of the Ewa
Plantation School near Honolulu,
is the work of Dr. Avard T. Fair-
banks, resident artist of the Uni-
versity. He has estimated that the
replica will cost $15,000.
John Bodenstab, secretary of
the Royal Ark Association of De-
troit and a member of the Lincoln
society, has sent a letter to the
State Legislature asking that they
underwrite plans for the work. The
Board of Regents has already ap-
proved the erection of the figure,
which would be surrounded by a
split-rail fence. An unveiling on
Lincoln's birthday, Feb. 12, in 1948
is the goal of the Detroit group.

Dow Explains
Use of Tinfoil'
Against Radar
Dropping packaged tinfoil from
airplanes was one of the most suc-
cessful methods used by the Allies
in distorting German radar, ac-
cording to Prof. William G. Dow,
of the electrical engineering de-
partment when addressing a den-
tal school convocation yesterday.
"Tinfoil produced the same ef-5
fect on the German radar as the
echo of an airplane," he said. "The
defectors caused much confusion
arnone Lhe Germans in trying to>
figure out just where the planes
were."
When the Germans captured one
of the more recent pieces of radar
equipment, "they were greatly
shocked," lie said, by the technical
progress evident and by the high
serial number which caused themr
to greatly fear the abundance of
our equipment.
Prof. Dow was loaned to the
government by the University for
Sworking on a special transmitterI
tube for the British government.
He accomplished most of his work
at Harvard University.
