COLLEGE ROUND-UP:
Football Fever Strikes
Campuses Over Nation
Daily To Seek Century-Long
Interment at Valley Forge
-I
By DAVE THOMAS
College football with all its tra-
ditional incentives to mayhem has
reappeared on the campus scene
fornits annual fall reign.
Once again the old wheezes and
stunts will be hauled from the clo-
set, dusted off and, perhaps with
a new refinement or two, afflicted
upon a long-suffering world.
SOME OF THE more mature
campuses happily escape these at-
avistic manifestations, but o n
others such occurrenees as monu-
ment-painting, theatre - crashing
and property cremation are "tra-
ditional."
Students at Michigan State
started the year's festivities off
on the right foot last weekend
with a monster rally and bon-
fire in the middle of Grand Riv-
er, a main trunk state highway.
The uptown Lansing paper and
the student sheet are still swap-
ping salvos over the incident. The
students feel aggrieved over what
they term "the journalistic myo-
pia" of their professional breth-
ern concerning what was really
"the tamest pre-game celebration
in recent years."
City Orchestra
Issues Call for
U' Musicians
There are several openings for
student players with previous or-
chestra experience and technical
ability in the string, horn and
percussion sections of the Ann Ar-
bor Civic Orchestra, according to
manager Philip . Potts.
Students interested in joining
the orchestra may try out at 7:30
p m. at tomorrow's rehearsal at
the Ann Arbor high school.
Prof. Joseph E. Maddy, of the
Music School, and president of the
National Music Camp, will direct
the orchestra in its 17th season.
The orchestra is scheduled for
seven public appearances, includ-,
in two " out of town programs, in
addition to its weekly Monday
night rehearsals.
Shier To Give
Talk on Egypt
Dr. Louise Shier, Associate Cur-
ator of the Museum of Archeology,
will present an illustrated lecture
" . on "A Roman Town in Egypt" be-
fore the University of Michigan
Women's Research Club at 8 p.m.
tomorrow.
The meeting will be held in the
West Lecture Room, Rackham
Building.
Dr. Shier will describe the rou-
tine of an Egyptian town under
Roman rule and show pictures of
building materials, papyrus, pot-
' _ tery and bronze implements.

WHILE THE estimated 8,000
Spartans were riotingdhappily at
home, a more spirited group of
zealots journeyed to Ann Arbor to
apply paint toassorted campus
landmarks including President
Ruthven's residence, Clements Li-
brary, Angell Hall and the foot-
ball stadium and field.
The only sour note in the
Spartan weekend, except per-
haps the loss of the game itself,
was struck by the fifteen spir-
ited State students who were so
clumsy as to be apprehended by
the Ann Arbor police while at-
tempting to wall up the Engi-
neering Arch.
The redoubt which they hoped
to erect was to be four feet high
and composed of cement blocks
which weighed a ton and a half
all told, according to a breathless
report in the East Lansing student
paper. The pranksters had spent
all summer designing the edifice
and practicing their building
techniques but were side-tracked
by the local constabulary a few
moments before they we ready
to swing into action.

THE SAME FALL spirits seem
to have invaded the staid walks
of Cornell where it is apparently
open season on professors.
One student is currently
awaiting examination a f t e r
pumping four .22 shots into a
professor's home, while two sen-
ior men's honoraries have been
placed on parole for activities
which included interrupting a
class and an altercation with a
faculty member.
A bowl of 'milk punch" during
the tapping ceremonies was blam-
ed for the irresponsible conduct.
AT PENN STATE, something
rather more serious appears to be
afoot as upper classmen call for
"customs" to be imposed upon the
unruly sophomore class members
who threw flash cards onto the
playing field during a touchdown
drive. "Customs" would include
dinks and large name-cards for
the offenders.
Miner Named
To ILOBoard
Prof. Horace M. Miner, of the
sociology and anthropology de-
partments, has been appointed to
the Committee on Indigenous La-
bor of the International Labor Of-
fice.
The committee of nine mem-
bers will make recommendations
to the ILO on possible labor legis-
lation for Latin American coun-
tries. Prof. Miner expects the
group to meet sometime next year
in South America.
Prof. Miner is the only commit-
tee member from the United
States. His appointment was made
on the recommendation of the De-
partment of Labor.
Members of The Daily staff are
hoping that the front page of the
Oct. 5 issue will be honored by
burial for a century.
Newspapers from c o as t to
coast are cooperating in a time-
capsule project sponsored by the
Freedoms Foundation at Valley
Forge. An Awards Committee will
select 100 of the pages for inclu-
sion on a geographical basis.
PLANS CALL for a "Freedom
Capsule" to be entombed on Octo-
ber 22 in a huge concrete monolith
topped by a 100 foot flagpole,
situated before the Freedoms
Foundation's new national head-
Iquarters in the famed Pennsyl-
vania town.
Also to be included are his-
toric and current documents
dealing with American freedom,
all destined for the eyes of Val-
ley Forge residents in 2049.
"Thus will it be judged," stated
the Foundation, "how well we
have defended the American way
of life." A set of instructions will
be carved on the monolith, re-
minding future Americans of the
deposit.

ANN ARBOR AUTUMN-Fine Fall weather lures many a student from the study table these days to enjoy the many beauties of an
Ann Arbor Autumn. Here two students enjoy the view, looking down on a familiar Arboretum scene. Nichols was opened to the
public for the first time in 1906. Since then class after class of Michigan students have availed themselves of the restful atmosphere
and bucolic beauty of the grassy plot just off Geddes Road.
THEY WEREN'T KIDDING:
Last-Minute Mercy Call
Saves 'Ensian from- Fine
Prof. Legouis To Speak Here
Prof. Pierre Legouis of the Uni- 'Corneille and Dryden as Play-
versity of Lyon, France will speak wrights."

ham Amphitheatre on the subject, the lecture program.
By PETER HIOTTON
Mysterious Friday night tele-
phone calls, a party and a skep-
tical managing editor almost cost
the Michiganensian a lot of money
Friday night.
Jeannie Johnson, 'Ensian man-
aging editor, received several tele-
phone calls Friday night telling
her that Dean Erich A. Walter
wanted to see her about violating
a city ordinance prohibiting the
posting of signs on trees and tele-
phone poles in the city.
"I KNEW about the ordinance,"
Miss Johnson said, "but some 'En-
sian man, had tacked South Uni-
versity, Washtenaw and Geddes
Streets full of 'Ensian advertise-
ments."
"Like most Friday night
warnings of impending disaster,
I didn't believe it," she added.
But when she got home, her
landlady told her the fatal truth.
A kindly councilman had want-
ed the 'Ensian to save itself a
sizeable fine for violating the ord-
nance, and called Dean Walter to
warn her. Dean Walter's call was
not only a reality but a lifesaver.
Call to Travelers
A meeting for all students who
were abroad this summer (under
NSA travel tours or not) will be
held, at 4 p. m. Tuesday, in Rm.
3A at the Union.
Students unable to attend may
notify Miss Dorianne Zipperstein,
of the NSA committee at 2-2591,
Helen Newberry.
Children's Show
Initiating its regular schedule of
broadcasts, the Department of
Speech will air a children's show,
"Down Story Book Lane" on
WUOM FM at 5:30 p.m. tomorrow.
But she had to getthe signs down
before 8 a.m. yesterday or pay the
fine.
"BY THE TIME I got home, it
was too late to go out again, and
I couldn't get the signs down my-
self." J
She finally called Dave
Shuart, business manager and
Bill Osterman, campus sales
manager, who got most of the
signs down in the small hours
of the morning. a
But to make sure of the clear-
ance of all the signs, she diligently
got up at 6 a.m. (on a Saturday
morning and after a Friday night)
and picked them all up, though
not until 10 minutes before 8 a.m.
"There were a couple of dozen
signs in an area about the size of
the campus, and that's the last
time I won't believe a Friday night
mercy call," Miss Johnson vowed.
