GI PAGE SIX THE MICHIGAN -DAILY TUESDAY, MAY 8, 1951 Peaceful Israeli Border Enthusiastic Callers Spur River Jaunt Looks like Mary Ellin McCrady'si long dreamed-of raft trip down the Mississippi is going to be a re-1 ality this summer. In response to a story in Satur- day's Daily, Miss McCrady, '51, has got one definite- promise from a Men's Glee Club member, a tentative promise from another University male, a host of helpful pointers from a student who has made similar trips and calls frotn other interested adventure seek- ers. The Men's Glee Club member, Don Brown, Grad., will take the trip primarily because of his in- terest in social psychology. Brown, who is interested in small groups, added he's also out for adventure. The helpful pointers were re- ceived from Tony Baker, '54, a West Quadder who has made a hobby of taking trips on the barest of essentials. He gave Miss Mc- Crady tips on construction of the raft, how to estimate expenses and possible contacts the group can make on its journey. One call, from Gayle Greene '54A, a Daily tryout, didn't pan out. Miss Greene who doesn't swim, was afraid of the rivers' depths. Miss McCrady still has openings for two or three more. Anyone interested can contact her at 2-4819. HOMEMADE SUBWAY: DirtFlies as Sandhog Has His Day A common mole may be in the dark most of the time, but Hank Melton, '52NR, thinks the little punk is pretty wide awake- when it comes to ruining his backyard. "From the tunnel network in my yard I can just about tell where this -sandhog's been and where he's going. He uses his keen sense of smell as a compass Dorm Survey To Distribute Questionnaires Questionnaires on food, service,' facilities and staff in residence halls will be distributed next week among all students living in dor- mitories. The survey was approved by the Board of Governors of Residence Halls last week and since then the questionnaire has been drawn up and is being printed. The committee plans to band out the questionnaires to the dorm representatives at a meeting next week and the students will receive them at that time. Dave Guttentag, '53E, head of the survey committee, hopes to have all the completed question- naires ready for computation by the end of the 15th week. The re- sults will be computed as quickly as possible, he said,' so action can be taken. to track down tasty earthworms- and from the looks of it he doesn't waste much time about it." BUT MELTON realizes that in wrecking his ground the mole is really doing him a favor. "I try to look on the bright side of this thing and try to understand that he's really aerating the soil by turning it over as he digs. But I do wish he'd do somebody else this fa- vor-I just don't appreciate it." Although Melton knows the weak eyes of the mole are a de- cided handicap in keeping him posted on what's happening above ground, he feels the mole should stop making such an upheaval about it. * * * "YOU CAN TELL just by look- ing at his shovel-shaped paws and long, broad muzzle that he was built for subterranean scouting. And his pinpoint eyes are prac- tically covered with fur for pro- tectioh from the loose dirt. But just because he's half-blind is no reason he should be excused for wrecking other people's property." Moles seldom come to the sur- face except at noon for a quick look, and then they quickly dis4 appear into their tiny hide- aways. "Nobody seems to know why they pick the noon hour to do this-maybe because it's usuall'y so bright, they can see a little bet- ter. They can barely distinguish dark from light, you know," Mel- ton said. But the one thing Melton doelt admire about his arch-building enemy is his underground haven, which he thinks is a masterpiece of architectural design. } "He digs many passageways leading away from his nest so he can take out after his prey. Tha#s pretty clever, really, but his clev- erness is getting on my nerves. yA few more tunnels like these and somebody's really going to get hurt." - .- ..'.A- >%x>x".W * * r"* w, SETTING UP NATIONAL BORDER-Surveyor checks line dividing Israel and Jordan as Arabs (cen- ter) wait with whitewash brush to mark pile of rocks as borders.

OPERA TION 4006: Speech Students To Give Mock RadioBroadcast 0 1 Students in radio speech courses will begin two days of simulated broadcasting today and tomorrow when they undertake Operation 4006, the speech department's spring climax to the semester's radio instruction. Named for the room number of the department's Studio A on the fourth floor of Angell Hall, the exercise is designed to acquaint radio students with the problems of continuous broadcasting o all Medical Educators Plan Visit to Japani Dr. Malcolm H. Soule and Dr. Maurice H. Seevers, of the medi- cal school, will be among a group of 12 faculty members from 10' universities participating in a me- dical education mission to Japan this month. The group is scheduled to arrive In Japan Monday for a month's consultation with professors in a dozen Japanese medical schools. The trip is being made under the sponsorship of the Unitarian Serv- ice Committee at the request of the Allied Powers command. __ _ I IL PEN HOSPITAL 115 W. Liberty St. types of programs, as in actual radio station operation. WITH NO ATTEMPT made to satirize real broadcasts, the Oper- ation has reduced a regular net- work affiliated station's 12 hour daily schedule to four hours by making programs one-third their usual length. Actual broadcast time will be from 3:30 to 5:30 and 7:30 to 9:30 p.m. in order to interfere with a minimum of students' classes. Although the shows will not go out over the air, they will be ac- curately timed and studio en- gineers have instructions to cut off programs which run over their a'lloted time. ADJUSTING THE program fare offered to the simulated broad- cast time, the first show at 3:30 p.m. will be the variety usually heard at 10 a.m. This policy will be followed throughout the two days broadcasting, -- m o r n i n g "wake-up" shows, afternoon soap dramas, evening comedy and quiz programs will follow in their usual order. Students in radio writing courses have written all the scripts for the two-day workout and students in advance courses will direct the programs and handle sound effects. Begin- ping radio students will handle station breaks and announcing jobs. Since the department's two studios would be insufficient to house all the programs and re- hearsals, studio control rooms, class rooms and offices on the fourth floor have been pressed into service as temporary broad- casting locations and have been equipped with microphones. Room 4203 will be open both days for anyone interested in lis- tening to the programs. Phoenix Pledges Students who wish to pay all or part of their pledge to the Phoenix Project may do so between 8 a.m. and 5 p.m. today at 4545 Adminis- tration Building, according to Marvin Lubeck, '51, chairman.
