rector of the University Broad-
casting Service is on Angell Hall's
fourth floor, wants fresh, campus-
wise program suggestions, so that
University FM station WUOM
will offer "complete coverage" of
campus activities when it begins
operation early next year.
Show University Life
"We want to portray the Uni-
versity as it is, both from a cul-
tural and social standpoint," Prof.
Abbot says.
From the schemes already piling
up in Prof. Abbot's "suggestion
box," it looks as though the cam-
pus is going to be given "slice-of-
life" treatment by WUOM on a
par in originality and interest
with any college station in the
country.
On-the-Spot
Suggestions for on-the-spot
broadcasting of League and Un-
ion dances, sports events, pep ral-
lies, fraternity and sorority sings,
student-faculty debates, Student
Legislature meetings, provocative
discussions and club meetings are
already being considered.
Prof. Abbot claims he is even
toying with the idea of student-
given talks on "What I Learned
Today." He says he's afraid, how-
ever, that they'd. be limited by
amount of subject matter to five
minutes.
Flexible Schedule
WUOM will operate on a flexi-
ble schedule until its new studios
in the General Service Building
are completed. Prof. Abbot ex-
plained that broadcasting hours
will be shifted, if necessary, to fit
the timetables of events to be
broadcast.
He pointed out that inasmuch
as most of WUOM's potential mil-
lions of listeners will be outside
campus, it's especially important
that programs present a realistic
version of life along the Diag.
Student suggestions for programs
dealing with details of little-publi-
cized campus activities, as well as
"big-time" affairs, will be espe-
cially valuable, he added.
Vessel Rides
Lawn Waves
When a gale blows up, the old
U.S.S. North Hall, veteran ship
of the University fleet, rides it out
as spray lashes its five inch gun,
on the forecastle (front lawn to
you landlubbers).
Mounted high in the superstruc-
ture, the gun director stands ready
for action with the enemy fleet
and the port and starboard lights
blink.
The forward gun, 38 caliber, can
make a direct hit on a battleship
cruising along the expressway on
the other side of Ypsilanti.
The wind roars and the aged
ship rolls a trifle but no one has
been reported getting sea-sick, ac-
cording to Lieutenant Commander
Mark Varland, Ordnance and
Gunnery Officer, N.R.O.T.C
Headquarters.
The ocean going equipment
lends color and sea atmosphere
to what is normally an office and
classroom building, according to
Lt. Com. Varland.
The U.S.S. North Hall will not
make any cruises in the near fu-
ture and will remain anchored on
N. University wharf-Avenue?

TIME OUT FROM SITDOWN STRIKE-Two sitdown strikers
at the Industrial Container Corp., in Brooklyn, reach through
open window for a kiss from their babies, brought to the plant
by their wives. The men, involved in a CIO-AFL jurisdictional
dispute, struck Oct. 13. Both unions are calling for application of
the Taft-Hartley law.
TO KEEP UNITY:
Religious Instruction Is Task
Of Church, Edmonson Says

Journalists
T o Discuss
Soviet Issue
Two veteran journalists, Walter
Duranty and H. R. Knickerbocker,
will launch a wide-open debate on
the Russian problem at 8:30 p.m.,
Thursday, in Hill Auditorium.
Duranty, who spent many years
as a correspondent in Russia, and'
who has written several books on
the country, will support the af-
firmative of the question, "Can
Russia Be Part of One World?"
'Friendly Russians'
Duranty's position is that Rus-
sia has swung away from its plan
to convert the remainder of the
world to Communism. He explains
that the Russian people are
friendly toward the United States,
and that Russia wants security
just as much as this country.
Knickerbocker, who will op-
pose Duranty in the debate, is
also a Pulitzer Prize winning
newspaper man and veteran of
many years reporting from Russia
and other parts of Europe and
Asia.
Knickerbocker's Position
Russia desires to expand by im-
perialistic motives under a typi-
cal totalitarian government,
Knickerbocker has said. The
United States must remain a bul-
wark against this threat, accord-
ing to the journalist.
Tickets for the debate, first lec-
ture to be presented by the Ora-
torical Association in the 1947-48
Lecture Course, may be obtained
Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday and
Thursday at the Hill Auditorium
Box Office. Prices are $.60, $.90
and $1.20.
Season tickets for the entire
seven-lecture course, which will
include other discussions of for-
eign affairs, theatrical life and
literature also may be purchased
at the Hill Auditorium Box Of-
fice.
Medical Corps Officer
Joins 'U' Military Staff
Lt. Colonel Paul V. Kiehl, Med-
ical Corps veteran, has joined the
University Department of Military
Science and Tactics. .
Colonel Kiehl is replacing Lt.
Colonel John M. Sheldon who is
reverting to an inactive status.
Colonel Sheldon will continue to
head the Allergy- Clinic at the1
University Hospital.1

Religious instruction of youth
remains the primary task of the1
church and must not become iden-
tified with the public schools,
Dean J. B. Edmonson, of the edu-
cation school points out in the
October issue of the School of
Education Bulletin.
Citing the current attempts of
church groups to reach more chil-
dren through the schools in an
article entitled, "Religious Edu-
cation - Whose Responsibility?"
Dean Edmonson declares, "If our
Senior Pictures
Proofs of senior 'Ensian pictures
taken before Oct. 10 are now ready
at the Student Publications Build-
ing, Barbara Gray, 'Ensian busi-
ness manager, has announced.
Urging seniors to select the
proof they want to appear in the
'Ensian now, Miss Gray added
that proofs of pictures taken after
Oct. 10 should be picked up one
week later.

public schools are to be acceptable
to all denominations, every effort
must be made to avoid their use
for religious teaching."
It is this system, he writes,
which has solved the problem of
educating children of diverse re-
ligious origins in a spirit of friend-
liness and unity.
All proposals thus far submitted
for religious instruction have pre-
ferred one group above another
and also threaten the principle of
the separation of church and
state, he says.
To meet this genuine problem
of the churches, Dean Edmonson
suggests the formation of com-
munity boards to coordinate the
work of the churches and to im-
prove theattractiveness of their
programs. The board should be
composed of influential laymen
from the various churches who
would promote religious education
on a community scale, the article
continues.
