RAKES OBSOLETE:
Sweepers, Vacuum Cleaner
Mechanize Gathering Leaves

By CRAIG H. WILSON

with brushes that sweep the leaves

Many-colored pages from na- into a hopper.

ture's scrapbook of trees are fall-
ing on campus and creating a
problem for the University's
carpet sweepers and vacuum clean-j
ers.
Before last fall the leaves were
raked by hand, and with a high
wind, this didn't work; as fast as
they were raked, more fell. Four
new carpet sweepers, purchased in
1946, make it possible to get the
job done and reduce the crew from
30 men to four.
The lawn sweepers, as they are!
officially termed, are hand carts,

This year the principle of theI
vacuum cleaner has also been
applied to the old job.
One king-size vacuum cleaner,
attached to a tractor, sucks the
poor innocent leaf up off the
ground, whirls it through a se-
ries of pipes, chops it into fine
particles and sprays it out onto the
lawn again.
The leaf is now called "humus"
and is very good fertilizer for the
grass, according to Frank C.
Schacht, University grounds su-
pervisor.

First Canfield
Lecturer Will
SpeakToday
The Honorable Charles S. Ken-
nedy, M.D., Regent of the Univer-
sity, will deliver the opening ad-
dress in the annual Dr. Roy
Bishop Canfield memorial lec-
tures at 11 a.m. today in the Rack-
ham Amphitheatre.
Regent Kennedy, chief surgeon
at Grace Hospital in Detroit, will
present a biographical talk on the
widely known Ann Arbor physi-
cian and teacher in whose mem-
ory the lecture series has been es-
tablished.
The lecture series will bring
prominent medical speakers to the
University each year through a
fund established by contributions
of students and associates of Dr.
Canfield, who died in an automo-
bile accident in 1932.
At the time of his death, Dr.
Canfield was otolaryngologist-in-
chief on the faculty of the Univer-
sity Hospital. He was one of the
founders of the Zeta Chapter of
Phi Rho Sigma, medical frater-
nity, which is celebrating its 50th
anniversary today.
Junior and senior classes in
Medical School will be dismissed
to enable students to attend the
lecture this morning.
Newman Club Buffet
Newman Club will welcome
their alumni at a buffet supper at
6 p.m. today in the club rooms of
St. Mary's Chapel.
There will be a special program

Waring's Singing Drummer
To Perform at Concert Here
The frog-voiced drummer, who j has been croaking, instead of sing-

ing, lyrics ever since.
Poley has missed only two years
in Waring musical history, when

that he would never be able to
play again. But after a two-year
fight, he rejoined Waring and is
still playing the drums.

Although heoreally possesses a
fine tenor voice, Poley is known
best for his gravel-voiced parts. It
all started when he sang his first
solo in 1923, and his voice cracked.
The audience loved it, and Poley
