Union Coffee
Hour Set for
Tomorrow
Have you ever longed for a
chance to ask your professor just
why your class is run as it is?
If this desire has ever possessed
you, the Union has just what you
need.
A SERIES of informal student-
faculty coffee hours will be inaug-
urated at 4 p.m. tomorrow when
students and faculty from the
English department will meet over
cups of coffee in the Union's Ter-
1ace Room..
These coffee hours are spon-
sored by the Union in an effort
to enable students and faculty
members to become acquainted
on an informal basis.
With hot coffee to warm up the
conversation, the Union hopes that
students and their professors can
consider their mutual problems in
a friendly atmosphere.
OCCASIONALLY, distinguished
visiting speakers meet with stu-
dents and faculty at these coffee
hours. Last year, former Senator
and OPA director Prentiss M.
Brown was honored at one of the
political science department get-
togethers.
During the course of the year
many departments will be fea-
tured at the Wednesday afternoon
Terrace Room events. Announce-
ments of the dates of these in-
formal conversation sessions will
be made on bulletin boards, in The
Daily and in classes.
Courses Held
By Telephone
The University of Illinois last
night presented the first of it
monthly series of postgraduate
courses in dentistry by telephone
. Entitled "Recent Advances in
the Control of Dental Decay," the
transmission reached 142 dental
societies in 39 states, the District
of Columbia and Canada.
The faculty for the series is
comprised of more than 30 dental
specialists throughout the country.
It includes Dr. Philip Jay of the
University dental school, who dis-
cussed on yesterday's program the
dietary aspects of tooth decay.
This system of transmission by
telephone enables dentists in iso-
lated communities to become
quickly acquainted with the cur-
rent advances in dentistry, Illinois
officials commented.

newly-formed Michigan Gothic

Hampton said, 'for the purpose of
seeing films and holding brief dis-
cussion sessions."
He announced that guest
speakers, chosen from students
and faculty, have been invited to
address the group on certain as-
pects of the viewed films.
Membership fee has been offi-
cially set at $3.50 per member, to

"GOLDEN BOY" is the story of
Joe Bonaparte, an Italian youth
who has great talent as a violinist.
His ambition to be "somebody"
drives him into the prizefighting
name.
Packed with indecision and
afraid of ruining his hands, Joe
degenerates into a commodity

When he accidentally kills his
ring opponent, he realizes his mis-
take, but the condition of his
hands prevents his return to the
violin.

THE DRAMA, written by Clif-
ford Odets, is full of pungent dia-
logue and choice character parts.
The leading role is Joe, the cross-
eyed, spiritually tormented "golden
boy."
Tom Moody is his explosive,
but boyish manager. Lorna
Moon, Moody's girl, appears
tough and practical, but she is
actually a pathetic "lost" figure
with a softer heart than she
cares to reveal.
Joe's father is a gentle-man-
nered, bewildered old-world par-
ent, willing to sacrifice all for his
son's career as a musician. Mr.
Carp, a Jewish storekeeper, spends
many, quiet hours with old Mr.
Bonaparte, commenting on the
ironies of life.

Cost-Freeman
Research is leading to a reduc-
tion of the critical and 'expensive
materials used in the "super-
alloys'" necessary for jet aircraft
engine production, according to
Prof. James W. Freeman of the
engineering school.
Prof. Freeman discussed "Super
Creep-Resistant Alloys" at the
First Pacific Area National Meet-
ing of the American Society for
Testing Materials, in San Fran-
cisco yesterday.
The "super-alloys" are the ma-
terials which have made the jet
engine a successful power plant
for aircraft, he said.
Experiments have revealed a
great number of undeveloped
alloys which exhibit better prop-
erties than many in use, Prof.
Freeman said.
