'U' Band To Grind Pitt Panther Sat. The Pitt Panther will be ground into hamburger, in a sense, with the University Marching Band op- erating the meat grinder, accord- ing to Chuck Hills, publicity di- rector of the bands. Accompanying the series of catchy formations in which the Pitt Panther meets his doom Sat- urday in the Michigan Stadium will be the Pittsburgh fight song, "Pitt Panther" and "California, Here I Come."

"When Night Falls, Dear" will be introduced as the featured Michigan song this week. rector of the Broadcasting Service, announced yesterday. A new transmitter building at Peach Mountain, which is 16 miles northwest of Ann Arbor, will be completed by December 1, Prof. Abbot said. Two more month,, will then be required to install the transmitter and wiring before the station can begin operation on its wavelength of 91.7 megacycles. Airplane beacons have been in- stalled in the 260-foot section of tower already built. The base of the tower stands 550 feet above the average surrounding terrain. The foundation and walls of the transmitteribuilding's ground floor have been completed. An an- nouncing booth and turntables in the building will supplant limited space now available in the sta- tion's studios on Angell Hall's fourth floor. With the completion of the General Service Building, the sta- tion will move into roomier quar- ters on the fifth floor of the new building. Four studios, music and script libraries, a workshop, store room, transcriptionrbooths and four control rooms will provide increased facilities for all-day broadcasting, as well as rehearsals. Because of the limited time now available for rehearsals and broadcasting at the present stu- dios, the stations will be on the air not more than 6 hours a day until the new studios are com- pleted. Doctors Have NCIew Course A clinical teaching program de- signed to meet the demands of practicing physicians for further training in internal medicine is to begin at 1:30 p.m. today at the University Hospital. Doctors who are to participate in this program will meet Thurs- day afternoons, Oct. 9 to April 22. The meetings take place only one day a week in order that the phys- icians' regular routine will not be disturbed. This clinical internal medicine course is one of the post-graduate programs being offered by the Department of Postgraduate Med- icine of the University of Mich- igan, which take place through- out the state in centers in proxim- ity to the homes of the physicians. Price To Head Group Prof. Percival Price, University carilloneur, was recently elected President of the Guild of North American Carilloneurs. Veterans' Loss Of Subsistence CalledWrong Local Veterans Administration officials could offer no informa- tion yesterday on a charge that college veterans receiving reducedI subsistence payments because of outside earnings are the victims of "misinterpretation" of Public Law 579. According to William L Spring- r, Illinois state commander of the American Veterans of World War II, the law limiting earnings in- ,luding subsistence allowances of fulltime student veterans to $175 or $200 "should apply only to on- the-job training veterans." The Veterans Administration will be asked to refrain from limit- ing compensation of full-time students and to take "immediate steps toreimburse all who have been deprived of subsistence through this misinterpretation," ne said. Springer pointed out that "in view of the rising cost of living, student veterans, especially mar- ried veterans with children, could really use the money." If the Veterans Administration does not reinterpret the law, an attempt will be made to amend it, he said. Hillel Foundation Starts Membership Drive B'nai B'rith Hillel Foundation will begin a two week membership drive today under the co-chair- manship of Corinne Azen and Betty Zien. The purpose of the drive is to give Jewish students on campus a positive identification with the Foundation and encourage them to support the program and ac- tivities of Hillel through an af- filiation fee. The 2,000 Jewish students on campus will be contacted by stu- dent representatives or they may call at Hillel for their membership cards.

ARTS UNDER FIRE: 'Life' Photographic Exhibit To Be Shown in U' Museum "OLD PARTY HACKS": Dorn Says German Leaders Not Ready for Democracy By The Associated Press COLUMBUS, O., Oct. 8-Most German political leaders are "old party hacks," leftovers from the pre-Hitler days who cannot be entrusted with democracy, says Dr. Walter L. Dorn, Ohio State University professor who has been helping plan Germany's political future. Back at his job teaching his- tory after six years of government service, Dr. Dorn estimated in an interview it would take at least a decade of U.S. occupation to nurse Germany into a democratic state. He listed intellectual re-orienta- New Gilbert Sullivan Club To MeetAgain The second meeting of the new- ly-reformed Gilbert and Sullivan Club will be held at 7:30 today in the Garden Room of the League. Although 42 members attended the first meeting, more interested students are needed to bring the chorus size up to 60, according to James Ueberhorst, publicity di- rector. Designers and stage hands are also needed. The Club announces the ap- pointment of Prof. Harold Allen of the architecture school as the new dramatics director. Prof. Allen's previous experience includes di- rection of the Merle Olson play- ers, several Gilbert and Sullivan shows, productions in the Pase- dena playhouse in California, and ten years' experience directing a theatrical group at the University of Utah. Prof. Allen recently directed the Nel Gwenn players, a faculty group at the University which has given several restoration dramas. tion of the German people as the occupation Army's number one headache. This he attributed pri- marily to a dearth of political leadership planned by the Nazis who killed or forced into exile po- tential democratic leaders. Dr. Dorn entered Germany in 1945 as Civil Affairs Adviser to the Army. He had served previous- ly from 1943 to 1944 as Coor- dinator of Information, European Division, in the Office of Strategic Services. In 1946, he joined Gen. Lucius D. Clay's staff in Berlin. "The parties are filled with old leaders of the 1932 type, party hacks with non-creative thinking. Gradually, new leaders will emerge who may produce a demo- cratic Germany. The signs are not too discouraging," Dr. Dorn ob- served, adding: "It is a difficult problem be- cause democrats in Germany al- ways were in the minority. "The only true democratic party in Germany is the social demo- cratic party under Dr. Kurt Schu- macher, but even he is often crit- icized as being too dictatorial. Hens .. . (Continued from Page 1) which can get pretty excited about this sort of thing, discloses that a healthy, hungry hen can eat around 60 pounds of grain each year. Since the average hen lays only 113 eggs a year, this means that it takes about eight ounces of grain to produce an egg weighing ap- proximately two ounces. It isn't enough that a hen has to be stupid; no, she has to go and be inefficient, too. Since the average cereal weight per each breakfast feeding is slightly over an ounce, it's obvious you can save considerable grain by eating cereals for breakfast. As a fellow at the Agriculture Department put it: "If you eat two eggs, you have eaten the equivalent of a pound of grain. And to eat a pound of grain by eating breakfast foods, you'd have to be a horse, literal- ly." Of course, if the demand for eggs is still sufficient, and the farmer keeps his hen, she'll go on gobbling 60 pounds of grain each year, no matter what you eat for breakfast. That's why the agriculture peo- ple are giving grain-saving talks to the farmer. So far, they haven't bothered to reason with the hen. See Para- graph 3, Section (A) of this dis- sertation if you care to know why Old Buildings Need Repair Says Allison Art School Lacks Ligiting Fixtures While many new buildings are being constructed on the campus, opportunities for improvement of e:istent buildings, such as the art school, have not been made, al- leged Harvey C. Allison, president of the University chapter of the American Institute of Architects. Of great concern to architectur- al students, in Allison's opinion, is the inadequate lighting of the architectural draft i n g room. Though the minimum foot candle power considered necessary for drafting work by Prof. Hemp- stead Bull, of the Engineering School, is 30-60 units, the average in the art school drafting room is 25. Lighting Inadequate Action concerning the lighting was taken last year by a commit- tee from the student chapter of the AIA. Numerous high officials in the University which the com- mittee asked to investigate the lighting were unanimous in agree- ment that the lighting was com- pletely inadequate, declared Dean Walter V. Marshall, of the art school. The order for the necessary im- provements was signed last De- cember. However, though other building continues, no move has been made to install the lights. Students Risk Eyesight According to Allison, the in- adequate lighting in the drafting makes night work and drawing on cloudy days extremely difficult. "The students are actually risk- ing their eyesight. Drafting stud- ents work at least 24 hours each week in that poorly-lit room," de- clared Allison. Besides the lighting in the drafting room, students have com- plained about the very bad light- ing in the college library, where the dim lights are suspended over ten feet from the floor. Further action toward obtain- ing the necessary improvements in the lighting was taken at a meeting of the AIA held yester- day. I el 4 I 4 "Fine Arts Under Fire," a pho- tographic exhibition prepared by the editors of Life Magazine will be on display at the University Museum of Art from Oct. 12 through Oct. 30, Miss Helen Hall, Curator, announced yesterday. The exhibition illustrates the work of the Allied Armies in pre- paring and salvaging western Eu- rope's historic monuments and works of art in combat areas. As- sembling of the photographs, many hitherto unpublished, was done by Life Magazine in collab- oration with the American Com- mission for the Protection and Salvage of Artistic and Historic Monuments in War Areas. Enlarged Photographs Miss Hall said that the show consists of 30 panels of enlarged photographs. A short running text reveals the care taken of art ob- jects during the war, and the extent and variety of work car- ried on under the program for the salvage of Europe's cultural herit- age. Beginning with a few examples of the extent and type of damage to historic buildings during the war, the exhibition emphasizes the work of the program in saving whatever remained of war-dam- aged buildings and collections and the handling of looted works of art, she says. Shows Army's Problem Second part of the exhibit in- dicates the size and detail of the army's problem in getting the looted and displaced works of art back to their rightful owners. The discovery of some of the 700 caches for German art plunder is dealt with, as well as the recov- ery of some of these possessions from salt and copper mines, farm- houses, bunkers and churches. The devastation of modern warfare to those monuments placed in the line of fire, as Cassino Abbey, St. Lo, and the Frauenkirche at Nur- emberg, is also shown. The exhibition of modern hand- made jewelry will remain on dis- play through Oct. 19. "Competi- tion for Printed Fabrics," the ex- hibit scheduled to open Monday, has been delayed due to the Rail- way Express strike in New York City. Campus Highlights Army Association ...
