'U' To Observe
Anniversary
On March 18
Alumnii in U-.S., Oilier
Nations to Celebrate
The University's 112th anniver-
sary will be celebrated next week
in about 75 cities in the nation
and in four countries.
The anniversary. which is
March 18, commemorates the Or-
ganic Act of 1837 which estab-
lished the Board of Regents as a

governing body. A second act two
days later moved the Universitiy
from Detroit to its present site.
A "UNIVERSITY OF Michi-
gan" was established before Mich-
igan became a state, in 1817, and
four years later changed its name
from Latin to English. But these
two schools did not teach collegi-
ate subjects.
Besides the various alumni
celebrations in the United
States, four other countries are
known to observe the birthday:
Brazil, Cuba, Ecuador and the
Philippines.
President Alexander G. Ruth-
ven will speak in Midland;<
Vice-President Robert P. Briiggsj
in Chicago; and Vice-President
Marvin L. Niehuss in Lansing.

Tells of British
IndustryPlans
Nationalization of British indu-
try has come about becaue pri-
vate industry failed to keep in
touch with events outside Great
Britain, according to Norman H.
Burfitt, labor advisor to the Brit-
ish consulate-general in London.
In a recent address to the Ann
Arbor chapter of the American
Veterans Committee, Burfitt
pointed out that before any Eng-
lish industry can be nationalized
it must fulfill these conditions.
TIlE INDUSTRY must be of
key importance. It must have been
inefficient in the past. A large
capital sum must be needed.
The labor advisor, now work-
ing in the Detroit consulate of-
fice, mentioned that stockbol-
ders in nationalized industries
were compensated party in cash,
partly in government bonds.
When asked about the mechan-
ics of English industries, he said
"manufacturing concerns now
functioning in Great Britain are
actually run by a board of con-
trols composed of specialists in the
nationalizing industry field."

Roach To Play Five Clariets

George Roach, SM, will become
a "one man woodwind section"
in a University student recital at
8 p.m. Monday in the Rackham
Assembly Hall.
Roach will use five clarinets in
giving a graduate recital. This is
the first time so many instru-
ments have been used in a formal
recital by a University Student,
according to Roach's instructor,
Prof. William Stubbins of the
Music School.
Roach will perform four solo

numbers and then join in quartet
and quintet numbers. The clarinet
quintet will perform Roach's ar-
rangement of Rimsky-Korsakoff'sl
"Dance of the Buffoons."
One of the five clarinets Roach
will play is the contra-bass, which
has the lowest range of any in-
strument in a band. The one he
will use is one of 36 such instru-
ments in the world and was givenI
to the University by the Leblanc
Company, of Paris, last year.
