HASTEN THE PACE: Education DeF Course in Rem By KEN LOWE If your reading speed is only slightly faster than that of a chimpanzee and if you want to do something about it. the education department has just the course for you. The course, entitled "Remedial Reading," is held in Rn. 4009, University High School, on Tues- days and Thursdays at 4:00 p.m. It is under the direction of Prof. Irving H. Anderson and employs several recently-developed tech- niques for goading sluggish read- ers into stepping up their rate of perusal. Motion picures, for instance, are used to flash stories on the screen in a series of phrases. As each new phrase appears on the screen, the preceding phrase dis- appears, forcing the reader to move his eyes quickly across the "page" with a minimum of eye f ixations. The films, produced at Harvard University, were designed not only to increase reading rates but also to improve comprehension and re- tention of what has been read. Another device employed in the course is an instrument, formid- ably known as a tachistoscope, which permits phrases to be ex- posed on a screen for brief in- tervals. The duration of the ex- posure can be controlled to give, an indication of the amount of partnent Offers redil Reading time the student requires to grasp a phrase. No credit is given for the course, but students report that the two hours spent on it each week bring big dividends in psychological in- come. Mitropoulos Will Conduct Dimitri Mitropoulos will con- dust the Minneapolis Symphony Orchestra in a concert set for 7 p.m. Sunday at Hill Auditomiur. A limited number of tickets re- main for the concert, fourth in the University Musical Society's Ex- tra Concert Series. Features on the program will be Mozart's "Jupiter" Symphony No, 41 in C Major. Chausson's Sym- phony in B-flat Major will also be featured. Rounding out the program are three pieces from "Damnation of Faust" by Berlioz, and Beethoven's "Leonore" Overture No. 3. Now celebrating its forty-flifth year, the Minneapolic Symphony Orchestra has appeared twice be- fore on campus, during the Choral Union series of 1941 and 1942. Open Meeting TodayinUnion World Government Will Be Discussed An open meeting of the United World Federalists will be held at 7:30 p.m. today in the Union to acquaint prospective members with the beliefs and purposes of the or-ganization. Recognizing that most people are in sympathy with the essence of the movement but understand little of the work and facts be- hind it, Harry Blackwell, presi- dent of UWF, states that the main job confronting UWF is educa- tion. "We want to acquaint stu- dents with the advantages and disadvantages of world govern- ment and to keep them abreast of what progress is being made. By giving them the facts we hope to convince them that. 'limited world government to prevent war,' is our best hope for the future." A tremendous amount of lit- erature was distributed during registration, he said. Additional pamphlets written by professors and students will be issued during the semester. Students interested in joining are urged to attend the coming meeting, he added. UWF To Hold b LDING. Artist's concepti on of the building which will be used to coordi- rage facilities.

Ensian for the most talked about II - g - lb14 STO I losing valuable time Students, save yourself time and money! The Ann Arbor Business School group on campus, the Gargoyle staff swept up all the odds and ends of its long tenancy and print- ed them in a mad effort to break Eusian's strangle hold on trivia. Wry Face When asked whether Gargoyle was worried over the impending plagiarism suit over the Fearless Fosdick feature in the coming is- sue, the managing editor made a wry face and refused comment. It is rumored that the impending plagiarism suit is the least of his worries since several disinterested parties have threatened to "beat you head in if you r4m those pic- tures." Buck Dawson, Cinemagent and Editor of Ensian, has predicted the utter decline of Garg. His comment was reported to have been, "They ain't got a chance. Look at the way the price of corn is skidding. I give 'em just three more issues after this one to fold for the year." Oddly enough the Gargoyle staff agrees with him. Screwy Blue Notwithstanding, the Gargoyle's Housecleaning Issue, the one with the screwy blue cover, will hit campus Monday, February 16. It is to be expected that it will be hawked in loud raucous voices by the same old crowd. Anyone wish- ing to obtain a Gargoyle next Monday without all the shouting may obtain one in complete silence for only a quarter over at the en- gine arch.- Meeting To Be Held A college conference on inter- national relations with delegates from 80 colleges in four Midwest- ern states attending will be held March 19 and 20 at the Univer- sity.
