TWO% THE MICHIGAN DAILY JACK OF ALL TRADES': Action Committee Handles SL Projects Engineering School Presents Bi-Annual Open House Friday (Editor's Note: This is the last in a series of interpretive articles Oe- signed to acquaint students with the Student Legislature-to which they will elect 25 representatives Tuesday and Wednesday.) For quick results on any kind of campus project, the Student Leg- slature throws the job to its 'Jack of all trades' Campus Ac- tion Committee. Everything from checking places for pencil sharpeners to plugging for a campus cooperative book- store comes under the catch-all category of projects undertaken by Chairman Al Harris, '49, and his valiant auctioneers. ON THE bookstore plan, the group is investigating the possi- bility of a cooperative, an enlarged book exchange or even a network of individual dorm book ex- changes. On the pencil sharpener front, new twirlers are being put up in a host of spots deemed necessary by the committee. However number one project is the Better Business Bureau, which certifies all vendors in residences and is compiling a study of com- parative prices of student neces- sities in Ann Arbor stores. S * * THE ACTION Committee keeps tabs on quality and quantity of Union food as compared to out- side restaurants and Unions at other colleges. They are also prob- ing the situation under which cashing checks in local banks costs' 15 cents. The committee is also tangling with such problems as getting a no parking sign in front of the new Engineering Building annex so students won't have to hop car bumpers to get to class, and studying the judicial processes of the Men's and Women's Ju- diciary. Two other projects are education of the campus to the availability of University loans and establish- ing a consolidated file of infor- mation useful to student groups which may already be in the hands of another group. The heavy spade-work of pre- senting the "Meet Your Regents" program was also a job of the Campus Action Committee. Twelve departments of the en- gineering school will collaborate in a full scale production for the bi-annual Engineering Open House Friday. Of the sections taking part, the Mechanical Engineering Depart- ment will have the steam lab and the auto labs in operation, Bill Gripman, mechanical chairman, said. "IN ADDITION to the dIsplays of steam, diesel and perpetual mo- tion machines, this department will have an exhibit of all the new cars from Ann Arbor dealers and several old cars dating back 25 and 30 years. Our biggest drawing card will be a beer bottle flowing perpetual beer," Gripman said. In the Engineering Mechanics Department, there will be labs showing the properties of fluids, and streamlining techniques, ac- cording to Walt Debler, chair- man of the Engineering Me- chanics exhibits. TWO Economies P rizes Established The economics department has announced the establishment of a scholarship and an award in un- dergraduate economics valued at $550 per year.
