THE MICHIGAN DAILY POOR AMMUNITION: Eat Green Tomatoes, Leaves For Vitamins, Says Botaniist By IVAN KELLEY When you eat a ripe tomato in- stead of the leaves of the tomato plant you are being about as logi- cal as the slapstick comedian who eats the wrapper and throws away the candy bar. This is one of the conclusions to be drawn from the vitamin re- search of Prof. Felix G. Gustafson of the botany department. Prof. Gustafson has found that the concentration of vitamins B2 and B2 in the leaves of the toma- Damsel.

Anticipating these multi- ple deaths, Detroit newspapers send their cameramen up to Hig- gins Lake each year to get gory pictures of the dying deer. According to Miss Literaty, "The conservation officers spend their free time for several weeks tearing around the woods finding dead deer for Detroit reporters." to is more than twice as great as it is in the fruit. His research has shown further that the vitamin content of green fruit is greater than that of ripe fruit and that young, growing leaves are endowed with more vitamins than old leaves. Sheds Light From a study of these phenom- ena Prof. Gustafson has concluded that vitamins are produced in the growing leaves and that they dif- fuse from the leaves to the other parts of the plant, including the fruit. His research has thrown light on the process of vitamin production as well as showing the location in which the process takes place. In one of Prof. Gustafson's ex- periments some plants were grown in light varying from very bright to very dim and other plants were grown in complete darkness. Progressively Richer He found that the plants be- came progressively richer in vita- mins as the light intensity was in- creased and that the plants grown in darkness were poorest, of all in vitamins. From this he concludes that vitamin production depends very heavily on the ef- fect of sunlight and that the proc- ess is probably connected in some way with photosynthesis. Regarding the comparative vita-. min content of tomatoes and to- mato leaves, Prof. Gustafson con- cludes that "You can hardly ex- pect people to eat green tomo- toes or tomato leaves but they would be getting more vitamin B1 and B2 if they did."

L Requisitions Accepted Views of Masaryk's Death (Continued from Page 1) Under the "hazy" circumsta - ces, it is impossible to tell wtmt Masaryk's death might bring about, Dr. Manfred C. Vernon, of the political science department, declared, and added that it was possible his death was "not vol- untary." At the same time, Abbott Simon, a representative of the National Council for American-Soviet friendship, told The Daily that the entire situation was "misunder- stood" by the American people. Simon was in Ann Arbor yes- terday to discuss the success of various council campaigns with officers of MYDA and the Ralph Neafus Club, local Communist Party organ. He said that if Masaryk killed himself for political reasons, it was probably because "he, as spokes- man of the liberal west, had been betrayed once again by the West- ern Powers." The murder possibility was dis- missed by Simon as "definitely not possible." Memorial services for Masaryk, who was active in Unitarian Church work, will be held at 10:30 a.m., Sunday by Rev. Edward H. Redman, at the Unitarian Church. 4 v 1 .+ I "Home of 3-Hour Odorless Dry Cleaning" \'CLLAN ERS 630 South Ashley Phone 4700 LeaueMixer Will Be Held Vocalist Jackie Ward will be featured with Tom McNall's five piece band at the League Mixer Dance 2 to 5 p.m. Saturday in the League Ballroom, Blanche Berger, chairman of League Dances, an- nounced yesterday.

I 11E1 ANt) IEUARN Opportunity 'JIo Study Abroad' Offered American Students (EDITOR'S NOTE: This is the first in a series of artices on going to school in Europe.) By DOLORES PALANKER Now is the time when a student's fancy turns more earnestly to- wards what he's been thinking about for the last semester and a half-what to do this summer. If you have the time, the ambi- tion to learn as well as enjoy your- self, and-a minor detail---money, why not go abroad to study at one of the several universities offering courses to American students. Several British colleges and uni- versities have opened their doors to 600 Americans who will not only gain full credit for their studies but may also apply for scholar- ships. The colleges and their fields of concentration are: Ox- ford, European Civilization in the 20th Century; University of Lon- don, Contemporary English Liter- ature; St. Andrew's in Scotland, Tradition of European Civiliza- tion. More Open Doors The list continues with Birm- ingham, Shakespeare and Eliza- bethan Drama; Leeds, Britain's Economic Future; Nottingham, Education in England; Southamp- oil i .

All students who wish to attend the English universities must send their applications to the Insti- tute of International Educational, 2 West 45th St., New York City, before March 15. Application blanks may be obtained at the of- fices of the English, sociology and history departments of the Uni- versity. Practically FrE o Attendance at one of these sum- mer sessicns would cost the indi- vidual no more than $600 includ- ing travel expenses, room and board. Universities in France which Americans may attend at a not much greater cost are offering courses in French cultuire and civ- ilization. They include: Aix-Mar- seille, College International de Cannes, Besancon; Bordeaux, to be held at Pau; Caen; Dijon; Grenoble; and Montpellier. Additional universities are: Par- is; Alliance Francaise, 11 Boule- vard Raspail, Paris VIe; Poitiers, Institut de Touraine, to be held at Tours; Rennes, to be held at Saint- Malo: and Royaumont, Centre Culturel International de Royaumont.
