Prof. Boak Named Russel Lecturer

Prof. Arthur E. Boak, Richard

The appointment was an-

Laboratory of Vertebrate Biology.
Prof. Boak will give the Lec-
ture next spring, followed by the
announcement of the winner of

HONOR OF THE lectureship
goes each year to the faculty
member adjudged to have achieved
the highest distinction in hisr
chosen field of scholarship. For-
mer Henry Russel lecturers select
the candidate for the honor.
Their action is then passed on
by the council of the Research
Club and the Regents.
Both the lectureship and the1
award were established by a be-
quest from Henry Russel, class of
'73, of Detroit. The will stated
only that the income from the be-
quest was to be used to provide
additional compensation to mem-
bers of the teaching staff.
1925 THE Regents decided to
use $250 annually for a Henry
Russel Lecture and another $250

In addition, he collaborated with
Professors Albert Hyma and Pres-
ton Slosson to write "Growth of
European Civilizations," and with
Prof. Slosson and H. R. Anderson
to write a "World History" in 1941.

A MEMBER of the staff of the
University's archeological expedi-
tions at Karanis, Egypt, in 1924
and again in 1931, Prof. Boak in

Grad Students To Hold Mixer
Tomorrow At Rachham Hall

Opera Seeks
Songwriters

Song writers and potential song
writers are still being sought for
the 1950 Union Opera.
A meeting will be held at 5 p.m.
today in Rm. 3G of the Union to
discuss details of writing hit tunes
for the forthcoming campus musi-
cal extravaganza.'
"Students who attended previous
meetings as well as newcomers are
invited to attend," Don Wyant,
Opera music chairman, said.
He added there is a good chance
for some of the songs of the 1950
show to be published in sheet mu-
sic form by Broadcast Music, Inc.,
and that the firm has offered to
publish the entire production score
in album form.

U' Foreign
Students Set
For Holiday
Foreign students on campus are
talking turkey again this year.
And the International Center
has launched its annual campaign
to place them in local homes for
the traditional Thanksgiving
weekend feasts.
* * * .
SO FAR, 70 foreign students
have expressed interest in the
Center's plan, according to Robert
Klinger, assistant counselor to for-
eign students.
But by yesterday morning,
only 35 offers had been received,
although cards have been flow.
ing fairly steadily, he added.
Klinger pointed out that last
year not one of the 179 foreign stu-
dents signing up for Thanksgiving
weekend dinners was disappointed.
* * *
HE EXPLAINED that any fra-
ternity, sorority, dormitory or in-
dependent house, as well as facul-
ty members and townspeople, may
extend invitations to these stu-
dents.
Interested parties may contact
Mrs. Kathleen Mead, hostess, any
day until Tuesday at the Interna-
tional Center, he said.
Science Finds
TyphusCure
Typhus, killer of more soldiers
than all the bullets ever fired, has
at last been conquered.
Films demonstrating the cure
affected by the drug chloromyce-
tin were shown this week at the
Pre-Medical Societysmeeting They
recorded a series of tests of the
drug, made during epidemics in
Peru and Bolivia.
One of the unique features was
the absence of controls,r occa-
sioned by the predetermined
course of typhus, once it has
struck.
All victims of the disease,
therefore, were treated and all
recovered in three days.
Because chloromycetin is ex-
creted from the system so rapidly
there are no observed after-effects,
the film pointed out.
It is also used in treating pneu-
monia, scarlet fever, and whooping
cough and is currently being pro-
duced in great quantities, society
members learned.
French Film Here
The French film "Harvest," ac-
claimed the best foreign film of
1939, will begin a three-night en-
gagement at 8:30 p.m. today in
Lydia Mendelssohn Theatre.
The motion picture was pro-
duced and written by Marcel Pag-
nol whose trilogy, "Marius-Fanny-
Cesar," played here last spring.
Tickets may be obtained from
2-6 p.m. today, tomorrow and Sat-
urday at Lydia Mendelssohn box
office.
