THE MICHIGAN DAILY PAGE SEVN .. . . . .......... "STUDENTS REPORT: Gernian Youths Found Open Ijie i By LILLIAS WAGNER Post-war German youth at the University of Munich is both open- ,mindled and interested, or so two University students, Bill Sininigea, '49, and Jerry Wensinger, Grad., found during their stay there. The two left this country on a group experiment in international living last June, originally to help re-build a dormitory in Munich. However, before they werel through, Wensinger and Sinnigen were translating and acting for a German movie and attending the University of Munich. "EVIDENTLY, contrary to pop- ular belief, the young people were least affected by Naziism," Sinni- gen said. 'jA confederation of Europeain states is a topic of real interest among German students, and the old nationalism seems to be breaking down." "Of course," Wensinger add- ed, "they are often bitter. The first two rows of all classrooms at the university are 'reserved for aimputees, since one out of five is crippled." The University of Munich itself was about 95% destroyed, and lost nearly all of its library. "For this reason, books for the students are very rare, and cost about 20 marks apiece -- as bad as $20 would be to an American student," Sinnigen said. "'THERE IS nothing like fra- ternity life," Wensinger contin- uied. "Life is very grim; it's de-' voted primarily to study. Most of the students livec in private homes and have transportation difficulties." They usc mimeographed sum- maries of their courses for studfy, and, due to the fuel shortage, have no winter term. "In fart," Sinnige neommented, "most -of the classrooms have no roofs or windowpanes and are so overcrowded that stu-a IIOHM NEWS 1(l.Itl'MIZZ'S NOTv: ('ontributors to Wha's Up in the Dories should con- tct Dolores Pala nker at The Daily or 0)5 IBetsy Harbour.)

Charles F. Brush, who would ~have been 100 years old today, raduated from the University in 1869 after studying metallurgy, but electricity caught his fancy and lie experimented in this field after returning to his home town of Cleveland, Ohio. * ' m DURING 'T'lE three years after' ~he started hisi killowatt work, hie ~cntributed three important de- ~velopments in electric arc-light- ~ing, 41l of which rivaled'the genius ~of Edison. First lie developed a speiat generator for the unstable char- acteristics of arc-light. He also devised a regulator that kept the arc light's carbons prop"- K idmni s Take Top onors ini Bridge Two University students, Don artman, '49E and John Dreifus, 49, have won top honors among 3 midwestern colleges compet- ng in the National Intercollegiate ridge Tournament.

SINCE ONE generator for each light proved cumbersome and eN- pensive, grush successfully pro- duced a "constant current" system which automatically adjusted volt- age output of a dynamo according to the number of lights being sup- plied with current. At first, Brush got cuff to a fast start, wiij his constant current system -suitable for arc- lighting, and was commercially in wide use in 1878 and remain- ed popular for many years, On the other hand, Edison had slow tedious experience in work-, ing out problems in his 'constant potential" system which supplied current for his new-fangled "in- candescent bulbs." DESPITE HIS losing battle with Edison, Brush is still recognized as one of the pioneers in the field. And his work is still evident in automobiles. The relative light weight and sligh~t expense of storage batteries would not be possible today without his contribution of the perforated) grid plate. He died in his home town in 1929 at the age of 80. 1/z Price T ICE'S MEN'S SHOP 1 107 South University Ave. RAY "ENTRADIO CO.
