Fraternity Bolsters Drive

* : .'- ,

Alpha Phi Omega, national
service fraternity, yesterday did
its share to bolster the Ann Arbor
Community Chest drive for $151,-
000.
Once more proving their "service
to the community" motto, the fra-
ternity presented a check for $100
to Prof. A. F. Neumann of the law
school, chairman of the Univer-
sity division of the local Commu-
nity Chest.
THIS CONTRIBUTION from
the fraternity adds another item
to the long list of services it has
rendered to both Ann Arbor and
the campus.
Money for the donation was
raised by members of the or-
ganization who worked in the
men's check room at the I-M
Building for the Homecoming
Dance.
According to Herbert Leiman,
Alpha Phi Omega's special proj-
ects chairman, the group has out-
lined an extensive program this
year to bring service not only to
the campus and community, but to
the nation as well.
THE FRATERNITY ran an in-
formation booth during registra-
tion and collected clothes for the
students of the University of Tue-
bigan, located in the French zone
of Germany.
The group will also serve as
aides for the 21st annual Fresh-
Assoiation
Sets Deadline
For Art Items
Items for display in the Ann Ar-
bor Art Association's first exhibit
of the season, "Art Privately
Owned in Ann Arbor," must be
submitted for jurying by Thurs-
day, according to Miss Mina Wins-
low, chairman of the exhibit.
Textiles and figurines will be
featured in the exhibit to be pre-
sented -from Dec. 1 to 31 in the
University Museum of Art Galler-
ies.
BOTH MEMBERS and non-
members of the Association who
wish to submit entries may call
Miss Winslow, Ann Arbor 2-2274,
before the Thursday deadline.
Small objects of wood, metal
and glass will be displayed in
locked cases, Miss Winslow said.
Prof. Jean Paul Slusser, direc-
tor of the Museum, has made
available adequate space for dis-
play of printed, woven or painted
textiles, tapestries, embroidery,
rare laces and quilts, according to
Mrs. Alice K. Reisher, Association
president.

Prof. Ross
To Conduct
Rare Music
Prof. Gilbert Ross of the music
school will conduct the University
String Orchestra in a program of
rarely heard 17th and 18th cen-
tury music at 8:30 p.m. today in
Lydia Mendelssohn Theatre.
Five works for string orchestra
will be played, including the Sin-
fonia in F major by Stamitz, the
Concerto in B flat major by Vivaldi
and Sammartini's Concerto in G
minor.
TWO OF THE pieces, the Con-
certo in A major for cello and
string orchestra by Tartini, and
Wilhelm Bach's Concerto in. A
minor for piano and string orches-
tra, are being performed for the
first time, according to Prof. Ross.
The Tartini work is partof
the Padua collection of Tartini
holographs, and has been edited
for this performance directly
from the manuscript by cello
soloist for the piece, Joan Bullen
Lewis.
The Bach piano concerto, in
which Digby Bell, '50M will play
the solo part, will be performed di-
rectly from the manuscript. The
holograph is part of the collection
of Prof. Ross Lee Finney of the
music school.
* * *
THE STRING Orchestra was or-
ganized by Prof. Ross during the
war to take the place of the Uni-
versity Symphony Orchestra. The
latter was temporarily disbanded
because of a lack of players for
balanced orchestration or instru-
mentation.
The group was continued at the
war's end to give advanced string
students in the music school a
chance to play and hear the rare-
ly performed string music of the
16 and 1700's. Since then, the pro-
gram, open to the public without
charge, has become an annual
affair every November.

'Murder' Play
To Feature
ChurchSetting
A realistic church setting will be
the scene of Inter-Arts Union's
production of "Murder in the Ca-
thedral."
The verse play, which drama-
tizes the martyrdom of Thomas
a Becket, will be given Nov. 16, 17
and 18 in St. Andrew's Episcopal
Church.
AUDIENCES will view the mur-
der as if they were actual specta-
tors to the historical event, which
occurred almost eight centuries
ago in Canterbury Cathedral.
Action of the play will take
place throughout the entire
church, with no particular spot
serving as "stage."
Critics consider the role of
Thomas a Becket the first, outside
the Shakespearian repertoire,
which allows the actor a full dra-
matic expression.
The part will be taken by Len
Rosenson, '50, who has had consid-
erale experience in summer stock
companies, radio work, and several
off Broadway shows.
* * *
ONE OF THE most outstanding
aspects of "Murder in the Cathed-
ral," written in 1935 by T. S. Eliot,
is the use of a chorus, the Women
of Canterbury. This innovation
marks a revolutionary attempt to
revert to the original ritual forms
of the drama, according to Dana
Elcar, director of the play.

the most colorful figures in Uni-
versity history came to an end
Sunday when Roscoe B. Huston,
Detroit postmaster, died in his
Michigan Center summer home of
a coronary thrombosis at the age
of 68.
Huston, joining the staff of The
Daily soon after it was founded,
used the paper to help pay his
way through college before it was
turned over to the University.
* * *
HE HELPED organize Michi-
gamua, senior honor society, and
served as editor and as business
manager of the 'Ensian.
A close friend of the late
Fielding H. Yost, Huston was an
ardent football fan. He claimed
to have missed only two home
games in 52 years.
After graduating from Law
School here in 1905, Huston and
his two brothers .opened a local
billiard and bowling establishment
which became a popular gathering
place for University students.
Huston practiced law here at the
same time.
Climaxing a stormy career in
Democratic politics in Michigan,
he was appointed Detroit post-
master in 1933 by the late Presi-
dent Franklin D. Roosevelt.
He married his third wife, Mrs.
Audrey Podbo, in July, 1947.

HOSPITAL FELLOWSHIP:

edical Group Relates Science, Arts.

FOOTBALL

PHILIP MORRIS '

By JOHN DAVIES
Placing the arts of healing in
the philosophical and religious
scheme of things is the purpose of
the Hospital Fellowship-an in-
formal discussion group composed
of persons working in the medical
sciences.
Meeting every other week at the
University Hospital, the Fellow-
ship holds discussions often
sparked by outside guest speakers.
IN THE PAST these have in-
cluded a medical missionary, for-
pign medical students and a mem-
ber of Alcoholics Anonymous.
This policy will be continued
this year. At its next meeting,
Dr. Raymond W. Waggoner,
head of the psychiatry depart-
ment at the University Hospi-
tal, will give a short talk. It will
be followed by a discussion pe-
riod.
At other meetings, members of
the group present topics of perti-
nent interest to the group for dis-
cussion. Socialized medicine and
humanizing hospital relations are
two topics now being planned.
* * *
THE FELLOWSHIP was organ-
ized about a year ago with the help

of Lane Hall personnel and the
University Hospital chaplain, after
the Students' Religious Associa-
tion's retreat.
At that time several people,
independently, began to realize
the need for an organization
which would acquaint hospital
people with each other and give
them a change for easy expres-
sion of their own interests, ac-
cording to a doctor who was an
original member.
It was also realized that persons
in the health service professions
have common religious and philo-
sophical problems which could not
be adequately answered through
existing organizations, the doctor,
who wishes to remain anonymous,
continued.
AT FIRST the group, then con-
sistenting largely of internes,
medical studentsand nurses, dis-
cussed relatively down-to-earth
matters, such as friction between
hospital groups, the doctor said.
But gradually the broader,
more abstract problems, con-
cerning religion and philosophy,
were primarily discussed, he
added.

Though still fairly small, the
group has come to include repre-
sentatives of many other fields
than medicine and nursing.
* * *
IT IS RUN on a very informal
basis, the doctor stressed. There
is no formal organizatign, other
than rotating chairmanships for
each meeting.
