Cra dIe (Contractor
Since last year he has been busy
constructing 70 ei1hteen inch
cradles, 120 trains (which is laid
end to end would be about 200
feet long), 32 twelve inch cradles
and 38 wagons.
According to his latest -aeu-

12,000 toys since he first scietod
his unusual hobby. Only the ones
made since last Chrismas. how-
ever, are still stored in his gr-
age.
Well Known Too
Last year, when he visited form-
er governor Harry Kelly, the lat-
ter called him "Michigan's most
prominent citizen." This year he
will again travel to Lansing spon-
sored by the local chapter of the
Lions to present toys to blind
children in that city.
The Kiwanis will sponsor a lat-
er trip to University Hospital. and
Warnhoff will also visit the hos-
pital for crippled children in Jack-
son, the Michigan Childrens'
H-ome, and St. Joseph's Hospital.
Warnhoff gives much credit to
the assistance of these and other
civic organizations which have al-
so contributed paint and building
materials to further his work.

added, "she has to put up with

The possibility of students grad-
ing faculty members is being stud-
ied at the University of Utah. Utah
college officials have been study-
ing the results of similar plans at
other colleges around the nation
and are drawing up plans for a
faculty grading system of their
own. The proposed plan has met
with approval from students, but
several faculty members are a lit-
tle queasy about the idea, accord-
ing to the Utah student newspa-
per.
At the University of Illinois stu-
dents have received a greater
voice in the conduct of student af-
fairs. Three student members
have been named to the faculty
committee on student discipline.
It has also been proposed that a
special committee be set up to co-
ordinate student activities. The
proposed group, including faculty
and student members, would re-
place present conflicting groups
controlling student activities.

Reports from the University of
Saskatchewan, Canada, reveal the
recent eviction of three student
veterans from a school housing
unit has raised a storm of protest.
It appears that the student-vet-
erans personally went to the
kitchen staff of the housing unit
and complained about the food.
Because of the complaint the en-
tire kitchen staff threatened to go
on strike unless the complainingE
students were ousted from the
dormitory. The college authori-
ties ousted the complaining stu-
dents, explaining that they should
have taken the matter through of-
ficial channels instead of going
directly to the kitchen staff.
From nearby University of To-R
ledo comes word that a new course
in Jet Propulsion is being offered.
New rocket power techniques will
be taught to junior and senior en-
gineering students. An extensive
f laboratory has been set up to

build and test all types of
engines.

ments to veterans enrolled in the
University.

which is the Vocational Pcelabili-
tation Act for Disabled Veterans.
