THE UNIVERSITY CONCERT
Band traces its origin back 105
years when a graduate of the
class of 1844 referred to the group
as, assisting in chapel services. But
the group which first took the un-
official name of "Michigan Band"
was organized as "les Sans Souci"
in 1859 and consisted of 15 stu-
dents who made ensemble music
their hobby.
Official recognition came in
1895, when the Board of Regents
organized the Michigan Band to
play at "football games, socials and
other campus events."

COLLEGE ROUNDUP-
Harvard en Abnon
Idea of SharingTubs

By DAVE THOMAS
At ivy-encrusted HarvardyUni-
versity, the flame of chivalry ap-
pears to flicker brightly still, un-
dimmed by the strains and
stresses of modern academic life.
Confirmation for this glib gen-
eralization comes directly from

Barclay To Air
Coast Politics
Prof. Thomas S. Barclay, visit-
ing professor of Political Science
from Stanford University, will dis-
cuss "Politics in the Far West in
1950" at 4:15 tomorrow in Rack-
ham Amphitheatre.
Prof. Barclay will analyze cur-
rent trends in western politics and
the programs of the major parties
for the election of 1950 in the re-
gion of the far west.
He will also discuss economic
changes and population increases
and their effects upon politics and
political parties in the Pacific
Coast region.
Prof. Barclay is in charge of

and political parties at Stanford.

that same outpost of cluture in the
barbarian East.
JUST BEFORE the Christmas
holidays, when New York City
was feeling the worst of the
drought and restricting such com-
parative luxuries (by Eastern
standards) as shaving and bath-
ing, solicitous Harvard students
offered to share their tubs with
waterless New York coeds.
From the dingy Harvard
Crimson offices, just off the
Yard, invitations went out to
nine womei's colleges urging
them to test Harvard hospitali-
ty and plumbing facilities. The
Crimson editors even induced a
large soap concern ,to furnish
free soap for their bathless
guests.
A few parched women actually
arrived and were photographed
diping their toes eagerly in a tub
filled with real water.

Students To
Re-Evaluate
Instructors
Previous Study
Proves Valuable
By WALT VOGTMANN
Literary college students will
again be given a chance to turn
the tables on their professors this
year in the college's second faculty
evaluation program.
Although no definite date has
yet been set for the student evalu-
ation of faculty members, Associ-
ate Dean Lloyd S. Woodburne in-
dicated that "more than likely"
it will be held during the spring
semester.
* * *
MEANWHILE, the approxi-
mately 50,000 student reports re-
ceived in last year's evaluation of
410 faculty members are still in
the process of a statistical analy-
sis.
Dean Woodburne emphasized
that the evaluation program was
a long range project which
would require evaluation results
over a period of from threerto
four years before any real
value of the program could be
realized.
Only data accumulated over a
period of several years could be
validly used as the basis for ap-
pointments, promotions and sal-
ary raises, Dean Woodburne said.
HE POINTED out that some of
the departments have already
made use of the evaluation re-
ports in such cases "when they
have confirmed some of their own
impressions."
Under the program, student
monitors from each classroom
supplied their fellow students with
a 10-question evaluation form on
which they rated the course and
their instructor on an A-B-C-D-E
scale. A space for specific com-
ments was also provided. The
evaluations were anonymous.
In addition to the student
evaluation, three or four-man
faculty committees in each de-
partment appraised colleagues on
teaching, scholarship, administra-
tive and extra-curricular work.
Mettler Urgres
'Ens ian Sales
Unless a lot of students buy
their subscriptions to the 'Esian,
there is going to be a crowd of
disappointed persons this spring,
according to Clarence Kettler '51,
sales manager for the yearbook.
The 'Ensian editors must order
the books before the end of
January, Kettler explained, and
they must base their order on
the amount of sales made to that
date.
So far, Kettler added, sales are
about what they were last year.
"If they don't show a marked
improvement, we won't be able to
order any more 'Ensians than we
did in 1949, when we could have
sold several hundred more copies
had we had them," he said.
'Ensians may b bought any
week day afternoon in the publi-
cations building, or each Wednes-
day and Thursday in the lobby of
Angell Hall, Kettler concluded.

A summary of the nation's eco-
nomic situation-the 1949 record,
outlook and recommended shifts
-shows moderate drops from 1948
to last year in five of eight depart-
ments.
Total 1949 production, $259,000,-
000,000 suffered a one percent de-
cline from 1948's booming level,
President Truman noted in his' an-
nual Economic Report to Congress.
HIS HOPED-FOR goal for this
year is a two percent increase, with
a $300,000,000,000 output forecast
within the next five years.
A near-800,000 drop from 19-
48's more than 59,400,000 U.S.
employment average, 1949's 58,-
700,000 average will be expand-
ed to 61,000,000 this year and
will rise to a 64,000 mark by 19-
55, the chief executive predicted.
But he reported total disposable
consumer incomes as $192,900,000,-
000 in '49, more than two billion
dollars higher than the previous
year. And consumer spending re-
mained constant at '48's $179,000,-
000,000 pace, with a $1,000-a-year
boost in the expected average fam-
ily income by 1955, setting it over
the $5,000 mark.

IN THE WAGE1department, 700,000,000 increase over 1948. Av-
Truman gave a $136,800,000,000 erage' weekly earnings rose from
figure for 1949, representing a $1,- $54.14 to $54.78.

1949 CONSUMER SPENDING -- The chart above shows the
yearly increase of total disposable consumer income from just
before the outbreak of World War II to the present.

TRUMAN'S ECONOMIC REPORT:
Total_1949 Production Shows Small Drop

Farm income, however, slipped
about 15 per cent below the pre-
vious year's levels. The Presi-
dent recommended here the ad- 4
dition of $45,00,000,000 to all
consumers' buying power by 19-
54, enabling farmiers to sell
about ten percent more food.
Corporation profits fell 21 per-y
cent below the 1948 figure in 1949,
grossing $27,600,000,000 (before
taxes and adjustments to take ac-
count of devalued inventories).
Recommendations along this line
include provision for $3 to $6 bil-
lion for business investment in the
next half decade.
The President also told Congress
that a moderate decline during the
first half of '49 brought the year's
level down to three percent under
the postwar peak.

BIGGER and better plans for
the Share-the-Shower campaign
had to be abandoned, however,
when Crimson editors discovered
that they might be violating the
Mann Act.
Legal advisors cited a Vir-
ginia court decision on the Act
in persuading the Crimson to
drop the campaign. It read,
"The Statute is violated, if the
intent is to expose the woman
to such influences as will natu-
rally and inevitably so corrupt
her mind and character as to
lead to acts of sexual immorali-
Diehard Crimson staffers dis-
patched a wire to Attorney Gen-
eral Howard McGrath, but when
no answer was immediately forth-
coming, the campus resignedly
drained its bathtubs and headed
homeward for the holidays.
Elsewhere, the process of edu-
cation went on as usual. A report-
er from the campus newspaper of
an obscure missionary college in
the provinces of New Hampshire
captured an exclusive interview
in New York with Mae West,
buxom queen of the showboards.
"A well upholstered woman just
isn't appreciated any more," con-
fided the blowsy beauty to her
Dartmouth interviewer.
