4 THE MICHIGAN DAILY THURSiAY, NOVRMMER 6, 19# SHYLOCKS BEWARE: Tenants Should Report Crooked Rent Practices Crooked landlord practices and illegally high rents should be re- ported to the local rent control office, William W. Hamilton, rent representative for this area, said yesterday. Students particularly should be "on the watch for gypping," Mr. Hamilton said. Tenants are pro- tected by law, until March, from eviction for reporting, and be- cause of reduced local personnel SZell To Lead Extra Concert Sunday at Hill The Cleveland Orchestra, under the direction of George Szell, will present the second in the annual Extra Concert Series at 7 p.m. Sunday in Hill Auditorium. The fourth conductor to lead the Cleveland in its 29 year his- tory, Szell succeeds Erich Leins- dorff who held the post from 1943 to 1946. The two other conduc- tors were Artur Rodzinski, now with the Chicago Symphony, and Nikolai Sokoloff, who was with the Orchestra through its first fifteen years. Born in Budapest, Szell was an' infant prodigy, giving his first public concert at the age of 11. In 1929, he became General Musical Director of the German Opera House at Prague. At this time, he began to make appear- ances as guest conductor, leading most of the large European or- chestras. Since his New York debut in 1941 as guest conductor with the NBC Symphony Orchestra, Szell has appeared with the orchestras in a number of American cities, including {Boston, Chicago, and Detroit. The program Sunday will con- sist of Symphony No. 4 in D minor, Op. 120, Schumann; Dance of the Bells ,from Salome, Strauss; and Symphony No. 7 in A major, Op. 92, Beethoven. it is up to the victims to report crooked landlords, he pointed out. Swindle Methods There are several methods used in Ann Arbor to swindle tenants, Mr. Hamilton continued. These in- clude side payments, insistence on purchase of worthless articles as a condition of tenancy, and large advance payments. It is illegal for landlords to re-' quest advance payment for more than one rent period-whether the rent is paid weekly or monthly. The tenant may offer to pay in advance for another similar pe- riod, but payment for more than that is clearly illegal, Mr. Hamil- ton explained. Few Crooked Landlords "Of course," he continued, "few landlords are actually crooks. We have 17,000 registered rented dwelling units in Ann Arbor and Ypsilanti, and there are many more which are legally exempt from controls. Most landlords will take the legitimate method of rais- ing the rent, which they are forced to do by increased costs, and we make many such adjustments." If rent controls go off in March, the housing shortage in Ann Ar-t bor will really hurt, Mr. Hamiltonj said. The city is considered a no- torious housing hot spot, he added. Students Will Tour Chicago Today is the deadline for in- terested foreign and American stu- dents to make reservations for a weekend trip to Chicago which will be conducted by the Interna- tional Center, Nov. 14 to 16. The trip will include visits' to important points of interest in and around the city, in line with the Center's program of acquaint- ing foreign students with all phases of American life. Students will travel by chartered bus. Reservations or further infor- mation may be obtained by con- tacting Homer Underwood at the Center. Warrant officers, flight officers and enlisted personnel of the first three grades who served honorably for at least six months on active service in the United States Army or one of its components between Dec. 7, 1941 and June 30, 1947 may apply for a commission in the Of- ficers Reserve Corps. War Department regulations re- quire applicants to be at least 21 years of age and not more than 28 years of age at the time of their appointment in the Reserve. * * * The Veterans Administration is now the custodian of more than 53 million Army chest x-rays of World War II veterans which it will use in a long-range campaign against tuberculosis. The films, which comprise the largest single group of x-ray films in the world, will assist the VA in its study of tuberculosis among veterans and will also be available for determining the eligibility of veterans for compensation. In addition to the Army chest x-rays films, the VA has on file x-rays of all its patients and many of its employes. *" * * A series of studies compiled by the VA and published by dental schools recently reveal methods of forecasting success in dentistry training. Results of the survey indicate that veterans attending dental schools stand a better-than-aver- age chance of completing their training if: 1. They made high grades in their pre-dental college courses, particularly in biology and natural sciences; 2. They score well in mental ability tests. These tests are cn- sidered most reliable in predict- ing success in dental theory courses. 3. They achieve high scores in mechanical aptitude and dexterity tests because better than half of their dental training consists of courses requiring manual dexter- ity. 4. They reveal an aptitude for dentistry in interest tests. Enrollment in U.S. Colleges Sets New High The University record enroll- ment this fall has been repeated throughout the nation to estab- lish an all-time high of almost 2,300,000 resident students, ac- cording to the U.S. Office of Ed- ucation. Reporting on the annual sur- vey of college-university enroll- ment, the Education Office in the Federal Security Agency re- vealed that national enrollment is up 11 per cent over 1946, with all groups of institutions show- ing substantial increases. The greatest hike was registered by Negro schools which reported a 26 per cent increase. Among individual schools, New York University topped the list with an amazing 46,312 students. The University of California was second with 43,000. Four other mid-western universities reported enrollments above 20,000. In announcing results of the survey, Dr. John W. Studebaker, U.S. Commissioner of Education, commented, "The continual in- crease in higher education enroll- ments means that our colleges and universities are going a long way toward making up the na- tional deficit in trained man- power caused by the drawing off of college-age youth during the war."

MEDICAL TALK: Harvard Embryolo gist to Give Lecture on Recent Researchr I Dr. Arthur T. Hertig, associate obstetrician and assistant profes- sor of pathology at Harvard Med- ical School, will present the re- sults of some of his outstanding research on human embryos un- der two weeks of age in an illus- trated lecture at 4:15 p.m. tomor- row in the Natural Science Audi- torium. The lecture, which is open to the public, is under the sponsorship of the Department of Anatomy and the Medical School. Early Stage Research Dr. Hertig, seeing the great sci- entific interest attached to se- curing young human embryos, has been searching for early stages of human development for about 12 years in conjunction with Dr. John Rock, gynecological surgeon at the Brookline Free Hospital for Women. Previous to the work of Dr. Her- tig, the earliest known human em- bryo was the "Miller Embryo," which was assumed to have a fer- tilization age of about 12 days. The nature of the processes in the phases of human development ear- Tier than this had to be inferred from the study of animals, accord- ing to Dr Bradley M. Patten, chairman of the anatomy depart- ment of the Medical School. Youngest Embryo The youngest human embryo which has yet been described in medical literature is of about seven and one-half day fertilization age and is known to embryologists as the "Hertig-Rock Embryo" after the two investigators responsible for securing it for study. Doctors Hertig and Rock are still actively at work in this field and are now studying specimens younger than any as yet described.
