JOURNALISM LECTURER:
'Monitor' Editor To Talk
Here on World Affairs

ii

Erwin D. Canham, editor of the
Christian Science Monitor, will
deliver two addresses on world
affairs here tomorrow.
Canham, sixth speaker in the
journalista lecture series, will dis-
cuss "The American Press and
World Crisis" before a campus au-
dience at 3 p.m. tomorow in Rm.
B Haven Hall.
* *. *
HIS SECOND ADDRESS, "Can
We Achieve Peace?" will be at 9
p.m. tomorrow in Rackham Lec-
Daily Visits
Coach of Year'
In Off-Hours
(Continued from Page 1)
The cups are packed away in
the basement, and the only
sign of athletic prominence is a
bracelet Bennie had made for
his wife.
It is a heavy gold chain holding
the All-American and Big Ten
championship gold balls he won
in baseball, basketball, and foot-
ball.
"I WEAR IT for good luck at
every game. When Michigan gets
in trouble, I grab one of the balls,
usually anlA-American, until
everything clears up," she said.
The commotion around the
Oosterbaan house doesn't clear
up, however, until the season is
over. Phone calls come at any
hour, and people swarm to their
home every weekend like flies
to a sugarbowl.
The Mrs. is never unprepared.
Extra spaghetti or what she calls
"stretch food" is always on hand.
Her biggest job is steering after-
game talk away from football.
She realizes that her husband
doesn't like to discuss it with any-
one except the coaches.
* *
"BENNIE IS happy that all I
know about football is thatait's
played on a green grass field,"
Mrs. Oosterbaan admitted.
That's all she cared about at
first. She and Anna took more
interest in the band maneuvers
-which they watch for hours
at practice.
Yet, Mrs. Oosterbaan agrees
with her daughter. Recently, in
the coaches' office, they asked
who her favorite player was.
Knowing that her blond young-
ster is always cutting out pictures
of 'chuck Ortmann and Pete El-
liott, Mrs. Oosterbaan expected
one of these Wolverines to be
named.
But, without hesitating a mo-
ment, little Ann exclaimed loud-
ly, "My daddy!"

AVC Aids
Vets Drive
For TV Set
Spending Christmas in a hos-
pital isn't much fun, but it can
be brightened when buddies pitch
in to cheer it up.
Learning that patients at the
Veterans' Readjustment Center
had collected $100 among them-
selves to buy a television set,
the campus chapter of the
American Veterans' Committee
voted to help them with a gift
of '$110.
And AVC's Art Moskoff was ap-
pointed to canvass Ann Arbor tel-
evision dealers for the "best deal"
for the center, and to enlist the
aid of individuals and organiza-
tions for the rest of the money
needed.
MOSKOFF found George Me-
Cotter, local television dealer and
himself a veteran, enthusiastic
about the project.
M*Cotter figured that by do-
nating his~ profit and labor
costs, he could cut the price of
a $1,000 set to $600.
AVC IS URGING all students
and townspeople who want to
make Christmas more pleasant
for hospitalized vets to contribute.
Contributions or pledges may
be sent to Art Moskoff at 1017
Vaughan or phoned to 2-7570.
Union Seeks
Yule Drivers
The Union's vacation travel
service is still accepting requests
for rides or passengers for the
Christmas exodus.
Students may register from 3
to 5 p.m. daily by telephone or in
person at the Student Offices of
the Union. All names and des-,
tinations are entered in a master
file which is consulted as each
request is made.
Students whose requests can be
filled are notified by the Union.
Far more persons desiring rides
have registered up to now than
those who can supply rides, ac-
cording to Bob Seeber, chairman
of the House Affairs Committee.

An answer to the question of
what to get children for Christ-
mas is offered in the next issue
of the Gargoyle, which will go on
sale this Monday.
The Garg's solution is : give
books and its Christmas issue will
have a special section devoted to
a discussion of books for young
folks.
"IT IS BECAUSE we know the
value of good literature that we
have included this new and im-
portant section," Norm Gottlieb,
associate editor of the Gargoyle,
declared yesterday.
* *,' *
THE REVIEWER, it was re-
lated, has drawn extensively from
his own personal experience with
children in writing this article.
His suggestions take into consid-
eration the workings of a child's
mind, in addition to what his
tastes are.
IRA To Hear Talk
By Negro Author
Harry Haywood, author of the

ment to organize southern whiteI

FOR NEEDY EUROPEANS:
Appeal Made To Students
In Quaker Clothing Drive

Your cast-off clothing can make
any day Christmas for the needy
in Europe.
The Ann Arbor Society of
Friends voiced this appeal in
opening their two-week cloth-
ing drive this week.'
Contributions may be left at
Tuckaway House, on the corner
of Liberty and Maynard Streets,
this week and next.
AN AMERICAN Friends Service
Committee worker in Germany
reported on conditions thererin a
letter to the local Quaker group:
"A young man recently re-
turned from Russia had bor-
rowed clothes from a friend so
that he might come to us for
help.
"There are cold legs bound with
rags because there are no stock-
ings; a. little boy's feet are blis-
tered and sore from shoes too
small for him.
. k .
"THE FACES we see are trou-
bled, some bewildered, some hard.
Others show only joy and grati-
tude."
Old clothing, especially warm
coats, suits, dresses and shoes are
needed, Jack Huebler, publicity
chairman for the Quakers, said.

Condition of the clothes does
not matter, he emphasized. The
group will clean, repair and
pack them at a work party fol-
lowing the drive.
The clothing will be distributed
in European countries through
the American Friends Service
Committee.
Textiles Shown
In Alumni Hall
An exhibition of 50 pre-Spanish
Peruvian textiles will be on dis-
play through Dec. 28 in the Uni-
versity Museum of Art, Alumni
Memorial Hall.
These ancient Peruvian textiles
are among the finest in the world
as far as technical virtuosity, per-
fection of design and color and
preservation are concerned, ac-
cording to museum officials.
The textiles were woven in the
period from 300 A.D. to the early
16th century.
They are being circulated by
the American Federation of Arts,
Washington, D.C. through the
courtesy of the Textile Museum of
the District of Columbia.
