THE MICHIGAN DAILY Til .. GRO UNDKEEPER'S BATTLE: Trailbreakers Trample Campus , # * * * * S * * Positions Plentiful in Techno logy Job openings in the technical fields are so plentiful that one company is planning to create a recruiting department for women. This statement was made by Mildred Webber, assistant to the director of the Bureau of Ap- pointments in charge of general placement, who asserted that "em- ployment possibilities are better than ever." ACCORDING TO Miss Webber, government agencies as well as private companies are increasing their tempo in tracking down prospective employes. Emphasis is being put on the technical and research phases, she said. Except for an increase in the demand for stenographers, op- portunities in non - technical fields havenot shown any ma-. jor changes. Miss Webber attributes part of the brighter job outlook to the fact that some government units are now authorized to recruit at all levels whereas before they were restricted to PhD's only. "Also," she said, "there are few- er graduates this year than last, companies have been expanding and the draft is beginning to cut into the manpower supply." STUDENT WORKS FEATURED: Bill of One Act Pla ys WillOpen Today Life in Michigan of the 1870's and in San Francisco of today, as interpreted by two University stu- dents, will be the subject of two of the plays on the season's second bill of one act plays. The program will open "at 8 p.m. today in the Lydia Mendel- ssohn Theatre. The two student written plays are "The Woods Are Still," by Dan Waldron, '51, and "Boke's Friends," by Shelton Mur- phy, '51. "Wurzel-Flummery," by A. A. Milne and "Aria Da Capo," by Edna St. Vincent Millay will complete the program. The dramas will receive a sec- ond performance tomorrow. The theatre box office will open at 10 a.m. and remain open until curtain time both today and to- morrow. Tickets are 30 cents apiece. "BORE'S FRIENDS" is the story of an San Francisco sioe- shine boy's attempts to gain com- panionship and the troubles his quest gets him into. It will be di- rected by Margaret Paton, 'Grad. Waldron will direct his own play, which is set in the central Michigan woods during the last century. It tells of a period, Wal- dron explained, "when civiliza- tion was coming north and more than trees were being hewn down. People were also getting bruised in the process." A. A. Milne's whimsical come- dy "Wurzel-Flummery" is about a member of parliament, a sudden inheritance and the name W. F. Romance. It all adds up, accord- ing to a spokesman for speech de- p5artment, to a hilarious play. It will be directed by Roslyn Men- dell, 'Grad. "Aria Da Capo" by Edna St. Vincent Millay will be performed by an all-female cast. Since its first production in the early '50's, this fantasy with tragic implica- tions has taken its place has one of the classic one act plays. It will be directed by Willard Booth, Grad. I .I DIRECTOR CALLS THE PLAY-Dan Waldron (right), author and director of' "The Woods Are Still," tells Patricia Skinner how to cradle a violin as Warren Bunyan registers the proper wonder. The scene is from one of four plays which will be given today and tomorrow on the season's second bill of one act plays.

SCOTS SEEK SELF-GOVERNMENT: Professor Tells Scone Stone History By HARLAND BRITZ If the Scots are guilty of run- ning off with the Stone of Scone, the act is an outward manifesta- tion of the agitation for Scottish self - government, according to Prof. William Leslie of the his- tory department. Though they currently have lo- cal self-government and are rep- resented in the British parliament, they are very desirous of having a national parliament of their own, he explained. * * * HOWEVER, Prof. Leslie said that since the present British king is a descendant of a onetime Scot- tish king, who became England's James I, and the present British queen is a Scotswoman, perhaps the British claim to the stone is Noted Humorist Bennett Cerf Will Lecture Here Tuesday more than just one of possession. The Stone of Scone incident is not the first recent evidence of Scottish nationalism. Histor- ical documents that were wres- ted from the Scots in 1291, the same time that the British cap- tured the Stone, were only re- cently returned to Scotland. Ag- itation had caused Parliament to decide to return them in 1937 but the government just got around to acting ontheir recom- mendation. Prof. Leslie feels that only time will tell the whereabouts of the historical relic. He hinted that perhaps the police know more about it than the news they have released implies. He also said that the incident has little real importance in a political sense, but that it never- theless is very interesting. * * * THE STONE was stolen on Christmas day from its 655 year resti g place in Westminster Ab- bey. he 336 lb. rectangle of yellow sandstone was seized by Edward I during an invasion of Scotland and was installed in the abbey in 1296. Ensian Sales To Open Again With a complete coverage of the Rose Bowl added to the 'Ensian, sales will open again for the '51 issue.

Sawyer of the graduate School will 'speak and show color movies on the Bikini atomic bomb tests at 7:30 pan. today in Rm. 1400, Chemistry Bldg. The program is sponsored by the Student Science Society. All interested persons are invited to attend, according to Dave Shap- pirio, '51, society president. If you're trying to account for every penny in your household or personal budget, you're on the wrong track, according to Prof. Z. Clark Dickinson of*'the economics department. A BUDGET should be a plan rather than a strait-jacket,pthe economist asserted. "No great weight should be given the guides which list percentages to be spent for food, clothing, rents, and other specific items, as these may have no application in your individual situation." Prof. Dickinson suggested three kinds of records to make budgeting simple but complete enough to see where your money is going and to know Just where you stand. Bennett Cerf, a campus comic who made his humor pay off will give the fifth in this year's lec- ture series at 8:30 p.m. Tuesday in Hill Auditorium. In his undergraduate days at Columbia, Cerf, now head of one of the nation's largest publishing houses, served as the editor of "The Jester," Columbia counter- part of the Gargoyle.

These are: (1) a budget to fore-",- cast income and outlay forra period of time-preferably on a monthly basis, (2) a receipts and expenditure statement of thedac- tual financial transactions dur- ing the budget period, (3) peri- odic balance sheets, which act as, "snapshots" of the fai nily's net worth. Bowl Trip Refunds Students who did not use por- tions of their Wolverine Club Rose Bowl trip ticket may obtain refunds from 1 to 4:30 p.m. to- day and tomorrow at the Admin- istration Bldg., according to Cor- ky Gibbon, Wolverine Club mem- ber. anthologist.
