"Students with mustaches just don't belong in college." * * * t 1 i t 1 r possessor of a Stalinesque adornment had trimmed his to a modest growth which no longer required wax. And heartened by the wide- spread trimming and cutting of the hirsute adornments, Jorge Barros, Grad., from Argentina, was reconsidering removing his mustache completely. "Mustaches are stylish among Argentine students," Barros ex- plained. "But here it feels out of place on my lip." A CHECK of local cosmetic counters revealed that the short- age is largely the result of the few calls dealers have for the wax. Thus few of them stock it at all. But a national shortage of Campus Calendar, Petitions-Campus groups have only until 5 p.m. today to turn in petitions for co-sponsorship of movies with the Student Legisla- ture's Cinema Guild, according to Irv Stenn, '52, chairman of the Cinema Guild board.

Included in Prof. Kamrowski's exhibit are examples of his ex- periments in new painting tech- niques, Well-known throughout the world for his original expression, Prof. Kamrowski's present display is in great part a pictorial report of the results of the research he did in Paris under a grant award- ed by the Rackham trustees for work abroad.

LOST LETTERS: Incomplete Addresses Cause Headaches for 'U' Workers, "Betty, U. of Michigan, USA" was the only address the letter bore. This letter with a South Amer- lcan post mark was typical of hundreds received by the Office of Student Affairs monthly which defy identification of the ad- dressee. OWHENEVER the post office can't locate a student by the ad- dress on a letter they unload it on us," sighed Miss Dorothea Leonard, receptionist, "and we get some funny ones." The letter that had the most people guessing, she recalled, was one addressed to a co-ed five feet two, with blue eyes anid blond hair. No further in- formation was given. * * * MANY LETTERS from foreign nations must be sent to the In- ternational Center to be translat- ed before any disposition can be made of them. After being deciphered, many of the letters have turned out to be appeals to University of- ficials for financial andl other aid from people the officials have never heard of. Miss Leonard related that the average volume of such mail is! 10 to 20 letters a day, with the load heaviest at Christmas and at the beginning of the semester. The staff has become expert at tracing down students with only the barest of clues to work with, so most of the mail is finally de- livered. Student Affairs clerks are gear- ed to expect anything in the day's mail. There is one letter that ar- rives monthly that stumps every- one: a warning to the dean's of- fice of "dire things to come." It is post-marked New York and signed "The Vigilantes." One Act Plays To End Today The season's second bill of one act plays will receive its second and last performance at 8 p.m. today on the stage of the Lydia Mendelssohn Theatre. Sale of the remaining tickets will go on from 10 a.m. to curtain time at the Mendelssohn box of- fice. They are 30 cents apiece. The four plays on the bill are "The Woods Are Still," by Dan Waldron, '51, "Boke's Friends," by Shelton Murphy, '51, "Aria Da Capo," by Edna St. Vincent Millay and "Wurzel-Flummery," by A. A. Milne. 'U' Professors Hit Proposed Sales Tax Plan Economics professors concur- red yesterday that the $10 billion federal sales tax suggested by various senators was out of the question for a number ofureasons. Prof. J. Phillip Wernette of the business administration school pointed out that to collect a sum as large as $10 billion by means of a sales tax would in- volve a levy of at least 10% on each purchase. This is a huge cut to take out of retail sales, he said. PROF. WERNETTE, agreeing that the defense effort must be paid for in taxes or inflation, felt however that there would be bet- ter ways of collecting the money. Personal income taxes could be raised, as could corporation and excise taxes, he declared. Prof. Richard Musgrave of the economics department em- phasized that such a tax would discriminate against lowest in- come groups. "Although taxes on the lower and middle, as well as higher income groups must be raised to cut down the inflationary pressures caused by high consumer demand, these taxes must strive for equity." U' Chess Team Places Fifth In Intercollegiate Tournament U r i1 While the eyes of all loyal Wol-I verine rooters were focused ont the Pasadena pageant, the un-1 heralded University chess team1 was at the other end of the country quietly giving an excel-t lent account of themselves at fant intercollegiate chess tournament7 in New York. The four-man squad, compos- ed of Mark Eucher, '53, Tom Straus, '52, Steve Smale, '52, and Russ Church, '52, wound up fifth in a field of 16. This was actu- ally a better showing than it would appear, for Michigan is usually considered a small-time power in the chess world.1 METROPOLITAN New York, a traditional c h ess stronghold, swept the meet. Columbia finished on top, while CCNY, Notre Dame of the chess board, was a close sec- ond and NYU placed fourth. A suntanned Miami crew slipped into third. Michigan had a record for the meet of 4 wins, 2 losses, and a draw with champion Colum- bia. ALTHOUGH THE squad could- n't match the laurels won by the more publicized football team, they didn't come away empty- handed. Michigan, the East's re- presentative in the Tournament of Roses, was presented with the prize for being the Westernmost team in, the Tournament of Knights, Kings, and Queens. The prize was a chess book written in Spanish for each member of the team. The choice of language baffled the play- ers, who felt that the New Yorkers might have thought that Michigan was a foreign country. The team made the New York trip on their own, with no fan- fare, no Wolverine Specials, and no University funds. Philosopher Will Talk on 'Thinking Prof. Gilbert Ryle, of the philo- sophy department at Magdalen College, University of Oxford, will give a. lecture, "Thinking," at 8 p.m. today in Rm. 1025 Angell Hall. The lecture is sponsored by the philosophy department. HE SUGGESTED instead that an expenditure tax be used. Such a levy was suggested by the Ad- ministration in 1942, but received little consideration from Congress. This tax would be based on the total spending by the family unit for a certain period. Thus people would be encouraged to save, as savings would not be touched by this tax. Also, it would hit direct- ly the source of the inflation, consumer spending, he asserted. 0 - I DAILY OFFICIAL BULLETIN evening program: "Crafts and Customs Around the World."
