At the death of Prof. Donal H. Haines last summer, his collection Lonely Sailors Ask TU' Coeds. To SendMail Two lonely American sailors, now serving somewhere in Korea, have appealed to University coeds for mail. "All our previops acquaintances seem to have f'orgotten us," dental technicians Charles E. Trout and Fred G. "Griedenberg have written, "and we find ourselves returning empty handed from mail call after mail call." PICTURES WILL also be grate- fully accepted, the two servicemen said. They guarantee responses to the letters. Interested women may write to: Charles E. Trout, 805-16-53 Fred G.

From this beginning, he made molds and began to manufacture his own copies, dressing them in authentic costume. Colonel Charles Wiegand, head of the University ROTC unit, said that many are designed from photographs and are exact repli- cas. In addition to building up his collection, Haines devised a "game of war which covered his entire basement. He kept careful records of battles and simulated the maneuvers of both present and past armies. Among the most interesting items in the collection are modern reproductions of the soldiers of Afghanistan and Abyssinia. Col. Wiegand's favorites are the sol- diers representing the French dur- ing the Seven Year's War. The soldiers will be used for ex- hibition. They also provide a means of demonstrating combat formations in the classroom. Union iTheatre Trip Planned The Union student offices have made arrangements for 80 stud- ents to journey into Detroit Fri- day to see the hit Broadway play, "Death of a Salesman." ,The price of this first theatre excursion 'of the year will be $3.90 including bus transportation and reserved tickets, with the buses leaving the Union for Detroit at 6:45 .p.m. Friday. Reservations may be made be- tween 3 and 5 p.m. in the Union lobby or by calling Ron Kaminsky, '54, staffman in charge, at 3-8508. Garg To Emerge Gargoyle, the University's al- leged humor magazine, will be out with the witches Wednesday. Peg Nimz, '53, claims the mag- azine will be the best ever. But, then, she's the managing editor.

Re orts Force Although he agrees that Phoe- nix, the project that was eventu- St c s Ioallowy chosen, is a. worthwhile one, IV1I Prof. Mueschke hopes that "when The stock market had its big- gest weekly drop last week since H ateher Calls we get enough feathers in the Phoenix'' we will undertake such a project as he has suggested. "I'm convinced that we should have and that we shall have a little theatre and cinematic facili- ties such as I have described, in the near future, Prof. Mueschke concluded. DEAN OF WOMEN Deborah Bacon pointed out that "what Ann Arbor needs is a little thea- tre to bring in good foreign films." "A theatre with a seating capa- city of about 500 people would be ideal." she suggested. "Something about the size of Lydia Mendels- sohn would provide a constant audience for good films of which there is a remarkable dearth in Ann Arbor," Dean Bacon added. Both the Cinema Guild and the Gothic Film Society are do- ing an excellent ,job, she said. There is a tremendous risk en- volved, however, in scheduling such films for Hill Auditorium, while theatres are generally too small." "We must be careful though to avoid treading on the toes of local theatres who are making an ef- fort to import good films," Dean Bacon warned. SIGMA NU'S DISPLAY PLACED FIRST IN THEN GO JUNIOR BIRDMEN: Moon Excursion Possibilities Foreseen by 'U' Astronomer By HELENE SIMON A thin aluminum cover on a rocket ship would protect it from collision from meteors, thus elimi- nating one of the hazards of space travel, a noted astronomer sug- gested at the First Annual Sym- posium on Space travel at the Hayden Planetarium. "Although it is impossible at the moment to send rocket ships to the moon, with hard work and money that day may not be far off," Stanley P. Wyatt of the as- tronomy department declared. "A ONE-WAY trip to the moon is within the resources of present day engineering, but before it will be possible for people to make the trip new inventions will have to be devised,"he added. Wyatt described what such a trip would be like. "It would be convenient to make the trip during spring vacation, for it would take four' days to get to the moon," he said. The best place to leave from would be a mountain top on the equator, be- cause the earth rotates fastest at the equator, and by taking off from a mountain top much of atmosphere would already passed through. * * * the be -Daily-Al :Held MEN'S DIVISION Guild Names 18 Sponsors Cinema Guild has aninounc- ed the 18 campus groups se- lected to co-sponsor movies for the rest of the school year. The or- ganizations were selected from 27 who petitioned on the basis of relative financial need.

The market had been on the advance from June of this year. until the middle of October, but yesterday the AP average showed that 49.6 per cent of that gain had been wiped out. PROFESSOR Douglas A. Hayes, of the School of Business Admin- istration commented that the de- cline is a result of two factors: a normal reaction from the mid- October high point and the bad earnings reports being published by most companies for their third quarter and nine months periods. News of the slim Tory victory in England failed to produce a bouyant effect on the market which declined Friday, the day election results were posted. Bethleham Steel and General Motors had very poor third quar- ter reports with GM profits cut in .half for this period as compared with last year. However, oil stocks reporting much improved earnings were not exempt from the decline. Read and Use Daily Classifieds STUDENT SUNDAY NIGHT SPECIAL Staff Meeting President Harlan H. Hatcher has called a special meeting of the general faculty, including teach- ing assistants and fellows, in or- der to extend his greetings to them and discuss matters of "funda- mental importance to the Univer- 41ty." The meeting will be held at 4:15 p.m. tomorrow in Rackham lecture hall. - - t.2t.VV QV~- TEN MINUTES would be re- quired for the space ship to reach the desired speed-seven miles a second. During this acceleration period the people in the ship would weigh four times their original weight. TENDERLOIN SANDWICH PLATE FRENCH FRIES, SALAD, COFFEE $1.50 SERVED 5:00 P.M.

The travelers would have to be strapped to their seats, or else they would float freely in space, because their weight -now would be zero. Eating would present another problem. Solid foods like toast wouldn't be too hard to eat, but any crumbs that might drop wouldn't drop but continue to float around. The only way to make a landing on the moon would be to turn the rocket ship around, put forth a blast of power, and land it on its tail. The whole idea of a journey to the moon may seem far-fetched now, but, Wyatt says, "It will come someday."
