SNOW JOB-Matt Harden, crew supervisor, braces himself in
his seat as his tractor and snow blade bite into a huge pile of
snow behind the Publications Building yesterday. Summers are
a little easier for Harden. He drives a power mower and grass
doesn't come in 8-inch avalanches.

Picture Contracts
To lBe Discussed
Ann Arbor and student photo-
graphers will meet together at
4:30 p.m. today in Room 3K,
Union, to work out a plan for
awarding picture - taking con-
tracts at all-campus dances held
at the IM Building.
The meeting, sponsored by the
Student Legislature varsity com-
mittee, is an outgrowth of a major
controversy over the dance con-
tracts earlier this year.
Generation' Sales
Advance orders for "Genera-
tion" can now be obtained in the
Student Publications Building,
according to Charles Olsen, '51,
editor of. the new arts magazine.
The 100 page publication will
sell for 35 cents.

iod of frenzied activity began for
the grounds crew of the University
Plant Department.
It was a dry, fine snow-Just
right for winter sports-and stu-
dents began to wax up their skis
and toboggans. But each addition-
al inch added more difficulties to
the job of grounds supervisor Sam-
uel Wylie and his 20-man crew.
TUESDAY NIGHT his crews
moved into action, clearing the 22
miles of walks, drives and parking
lots which were blanketed with
the two-inch fall.
Wylie's troubles were just be-
ginning, however, for on Wed-
nesday an additional six inches
fell. His men bundled up and
went out into the snow again.
POWER BROOMS and tractor
plows scrubbed and scraped at the
walks.. Larger tractors and a big
power wagon attacked snow-
clogged drives. A bulldozer clank-
ed and roared in parking lots
where occasional parked cars
sometimes stymied their attempts.
Three trucks were kept busy haul-
ing the white stuff away.
The crews worked until 1 a.-
m., as the snow continued to
fall. They were up and at it
again by 5 a.m., the whine of
their straining tractor engines
splitting the muffled stillness of
the dawn.
By yesterday afternoon, the
weary snow fighters had begun to
see daylight, but the job wasn't
done. Peach Mountain, 17 miles
away outside Dexter, where the
University has an observatory and
radio transmitter, still remained
to be cleared.
"I hope this is all for a while,"
said Wylie yesterday. "We've just
about run through our budget."
Central Voice
Planned For
Dormitories
A committee of reprsentatives
from University dormitories on
campus has drawn up a plan to
provide a central voice for house
inhabitants, according to Dick
Pearson, '50B, of Hayden House in
East Quad.
"One of the main objectives
of the plan for a residence hall
council is to provide the students
with an official body which could
consult with the Board of Gover-
nors of the Residence Halls on
dorm problems," Pearson said. He
also pointed out that the coun-
cil wouldnbe abletto provide repre-
sentation to the Big Ten Resi-
dence Hall conferences held each
spring.
STRESSING the fact that the
Council would be a cooperative
venture, Pearson explained the
body would function through the
houses. It would be used to fur-
nish a more coordinated social
program between the dorms, and
to provide a clearing house for
the exchange of dormitory aca-
demic study program plans.
The committee, composed of
Pearson, Jane Fest, '50, Gene
Lamb, '51, Thoburn Stiles, '51,
George Roumell, '51, Ray Litt,
'52E, Roger Roemisch, Ray Sten-
strom, '52E and Doug Cutler, 52,
has been formulating the coun-
cil pian since last November, when
they received the "go-ahead" sg-
nal at a house-president's meeting.
The plan is being considered at
dormitory house meetings this
week. The outcome will be an-
nounced at a meeting of house
presidents Feb. 28.

Med School
Costs Limit
Many--Scott
Claims Schools
Take Full Load
"Cost of a medical education is
the most important limitation to
the number of students admitted
to medical schools," according to
Dean Gordon H. Scott of the
Wayne University Medical School.
Speaking before a Pre-Medical
Society meeting, Dean Scott said
no medical school purposely keeps
the enrollment below the number
of students it can handle.
"THES LABORATORY method
of teaching, the greatest contri-
bution to medical teaching in
1,000 years, is the biggest reason
for the large expense of a medical
education," Dean Scott said.
Medical schools are constant-
ly striving to maintain their
standards, Dean Scott reported.
But they would have to spend
$65,000,000 on their facilities
and an equal amount yearly on
their faculties to bring them up
to the 1940 minimum standard.
Students can do as much public
service by teaching the basic medi-
cal sciences, such as bio-chemistry
and anatomy as they could as
doctors, Dean Scott said, without
the MD degree. An expanding
medical school will depend on the
number of such teachers avail-
able, he said.
*1 * * -
MEDICAL RESEARCH does not
depend on the possession of a
medical degree, Dean Scott re-
ported. All the degree does is
legallytpermit the holder to care
for patients.
He stressed the fact that
character and general ability to
reason well are more important
than high sciencegrades.
Dean Scott compared the stu-
dent who "gets all A's in his
science courses and lacks general
character and ability" to the "vil-
lage fool who can memorize the
numbers of freight cars as they
pass through a town."
Law School
Entrance Test
Called'Snap'
At last the University student
is offered an exam that "can be
taken in stride, without cram-
ming and without undue concern."
That is the advice offered in a
bulletin of information for stu-
dents planning to take the Law
School Admission Test Saturday.
The test, which is given four times
a year, is designed for students
planning to make application for
admission to a law school.
* * *
ACCORDING to some aspiring
law students, the test is one of the
longest and toughest exams given
on this campus.
"The test is made difficult in
order to discriminate between
students of different degrees of
aptitude," Edward J. Furst, of
the Bureau of Psychological Ser-
vices, explained. "The exam is
set up to identify people who
would be good risks for law
school work."

"Bt: it's not the sole factor in
determining admittance to law
sch'ool;," he added. "It is used
mo e'as a supplement to other
crijerla such as college records,
hogor. or awards, recommenda-
tic::s and interviews," Furst said.
"IN GENERAL, the questions
are designed to measure the can-
didate's understanding of words
and word relationships, his ability
to read with understanding and
discrimination and his capacity
for rmasoning logically in terms of
verbal and non verbal symbols,"
he added.
"The test is developed by the
Educational Testing Service and is
administered throughout the na-
tion," he declared.
WQ Elects Diener
New President
William Diener, '51E, was elect-
ed president of the West Quad-
rangle last night at- a meeting of
the West Quad Council.
The Council named out-going
president George Roumell, '51, to
represent the West Quad at a
conference of Big Ten Residence
Halls delegates which will be held
at Bloomington, Ind., in April.
"The Place of Residence Halls
on Campus" will be discussed at
the conference.
