THE MICHIGAN DAILY SUDYIMY2 LEAPS AND BOUNDS: I Michigan Historical Collection Constantly Adds Manuscripts By MARTHA RAINIER The Michigan Historical Collec- tion may soon have to find a new home if something isn't done to check its rapidly increasing size. Way back, before the war, in 1939, some farseeing, wise men kot the idea of starting a collec- tion of documents and manu- scripts of historical importance. So with a little space in the Rack- ham Building they began the pro- cess of collecting. Then the war came and things slowed down al- most to a stan'd still. In 1945 the war ended. When restrictions on travel were lifted, the active collecting program be- gan in earnest. Trips were made to various Michigan cities resulting in val- uable additions to the collection. At the present time it comprises 6,500 bound volumes of manu- scripts, 550,000 other items of manuscript, and 15,000 books and other printed matter. As fast as additional space can be found it is filled with the new material that is constantly flowing in. Now after eight years of collect- ing, the Historical Society is go- ing to issue a volume all its own. It will deal with the careers of the various individual alumni. The collections aren't just mouldy, old, dry documents. They Collection of Fans- On Display at IC Fans from all over the world from the collection of Andee See- ger, '48, are now on display at the International Center. Ebony, sandelwood, lace, net, tortoise shell, and feathers went into the delicate work of the fans. are mostly historically important writings dealing with Michigan history or Michigan men promi- nent in state and nation. More- over the collection includes many recent manuscripts. Hobo' Hobby PuzzlesCops Ann Arbor's hard-working pol- ice officers met a philosopher- one who likes to just take life easy-at 4 a.m. yesterday. He is a 25 year old Wayne man passing through town on his way to Fort Wayne, Indiana. But un- like most travellers, he walks awhile and then hops on a slow- ly moving boxcar Jogging west- ward. He carried a telescope and an overnight bag containing a can of beans and another of apple- sauce. Financially he had equip- ped himself with $2.50-although he could carry more. "My hobby is hoboing," he told police, who heard the same story from his parents in Wayne. "He comes back and gets a job until the next time," his mother explained. "Whatever he earns, he turns over to us-then when he leaves, he takes whatever he wants." The telescope, queried the con- scientious local police? She had the bill for it-purchased two years ago. Since then standard travelling equipment. So local officers released him "to go his way" on the under- standing that it would be towards Wayne and not Fort Wayne. H illel T o H old Fund Carnival Hillel, in carnival dress, will welcome students from 6:30 to 10:30 today to their spring carni- val planned to raise funds for the Allied Jewish Appeal Fund-raising booths from fra- ternities, sororities, and indepen- dent league houses will line the midway" with sideshows, games and fortune tellers. There'll be dancing, refresh- ments, and entertainment for all, Mike Sherman, publicity chair- man, promised. The whole campus is invited to help Hillel top their $7,500 quota, Sherman said. Like Mary's famous lamb who followed her to school each day, Muffey, a huge black mongrel, follows Mrs. Rosalie F. Green, University secretary, to work every morning and assumes his post under her overflowing desk. Mrs. Green is secretary to Dr. Esson M. Gale, director of Inter-' national Center and Counselor to Foreign Students. Chased off the streets by the recent city ordinance against roaming dogs, Muffey couldn't be made to stay at home all day. A couple of pot shots made action imperative. Secretary's DogLivens IC So Mrs. Green devised the idea of taking her "pup" to Interna- tional Center, thereby keeping her eye on him and at the same time allowing him a few romps in the sun. Although it was a novelty to him at first, Muff is quite bored with it all after three weeks of office routine. He has been quite a delight to the students at IC though, Mrs. Green reports. "And think of what a cosmo- politan outlook he is developing," she added. Opera Works Will Be Given The Opera Workshop, under the direction of Wayne Dunlap, in conjunction with The University Symphony Orchestra and the members of the Orchestra Con- ducting Class will present a pro- gram of Operatic Scenes and Ar- ias, 8:30 p.m. today in Hill Audi- torium. The program includes works by Mozart, Strauss, Delibes, Rossi, . Massenet, and Mascagni. A large part of the program will be various r songs and arias from Mozart. Read...

Hill-dwellers, in this case, are the members of Delta Tau Delta fraternity, who live at the summit of the highest hill in town. It wasn't only that long climb back up the hill from campus two or three times a day, but the vig- orous game they played when they got home. Trifling Overhead To play this competitive ver- sion of "52 Pick-Up," one need have no more than two decks of playing cards and a felt hat. GUILD NEWS Congregational - Disciples Guild will meet at 6 p.m. at the Congre- gational Church. Following the supper, there will be an Installa- tion service for next year's officers. Miss Muriel Lester, world trav- eler, lecturer, and author, will give l the last Henry Martin Loud lec-, ture at the First Methodist Church at 10:45 a.m. Sunday. The topic of this speech is "The Energy of the Spirit." She will also speak at the regular Wesleyan Guild meeting at 5:30 p.m. on "Peace Makers in a World of De- spair." This meeting is open to the public. * * * Rt. Rev. Yu Yue Tsu, Ph.D., Anglican bishop of Kunming, Chi- na, will speak to a joint Canter- bury Club-Greek Orthodox meet- ing at 5:30 p.m., St. Nicholas Church, 414 Main. Preceding the service, Canter- bury Club will sponsor a tea hon- oring Bishop Tsu, in Canterbury House from 4-5:15. Members of the Chinese Christian Fellowship will be special guests, and all students are invited. Following the service and address, members of both groups will adjourn to the parish house for a light supper and an evening of Greek folk- dancing, and games. Sitting six feet the players try to cards as possible from the hat, cards must be thrown individ- ually.) So far, Ralph "Rufe" Young holds the record at 41 outof 52, and has trounced all upstart challengers from his own and other houses - but then, Rufe wears a size eight hat, and al- ways plays his home course. Fellow enthusiasts who con- tacted Fritz Crisler to see whether Rufe was eligible for a varsity let- ter reported that Crisler had "no comment on no comment." Or Vice Versa Rufe's stiffest competitor is Arthur "Bud" Johnson, varsity swimmer, who plays to keep in trim for the 100-yard backstroke. Although the game has not yet gained NCAA recognition, fans agre that as a spectator sport it's got bridge beat all hollow. They're looking forward to intramural playoffs next winter. Anyway, the game is good for lots of laughs, or as Dick Cruiser, Delt sporting promoter, would put it-"multi chuckles." 4 I throw into .I as many it.
