PAGE SIX THE MICHIGAN DAILY WEDNESDAY, JANUARY 9, 1952 I ___________________________________________________________________________________ U 0 Union Plans Open Forum Tomorrow A possible revision of the Union constitution highlighted by a new solution to the controversial elec- tion of vice-presidents will be dis- cussed by Union members at an open meeting tomorrow. The meeting, scheduled for 4 to 6 p.m. in Rm. 3-A of the Union, will be open to all Union members, who will be given a chance to ad- Vance their own suggestions and ask questions concerning the Un- ion government structure, accord- ing to Union President John Kathe, '52P. Kathe explained that the pro- posals which have been drawn up by a committee of campus leaders will be combined with suggestions made by students at the meeting and submitted to the Union Board of Directors. The Board's approv- al is necessary before a general meeting to amend the constitution can be called. "We are trying to formulate a judicious revision to benefit the students," Kathe said, "and I urge all Union members to attend this meeting so we can be guided by their opinions." 'U" To Receive New Electric Computator An elctronics machine, which will enable a scientist to do a six- month's job in three weeks will be set up by the University's Tabu- lating Service at a scientific com- puting center. The new machine, when deliv- ered, will make the University one of the first institutions to receive the calculator model. Kurt Benjamin, supervisor of the Tabulating Service, pointed out that with the addition of the device, "in cooperation with the Statistical Research Laboratory here, facilities will be available to qualified students and staff mem- bers to gain experience in machine methods of handling scientific computation" A meeting will be held at 4 p.m. today in the Rackham Amphithe- atre at which the new facilities will be explained to interested stu- dents and faculty members. California Calls For Engineers Opportunities f o r permanent positions with the California State government are being offered civil engineering seniors in the Univer- sity engineering college, the Cali- fornia State Personnel Board an- nounced. A civil service examination will be held March 1 at the University for any seniors interested, accord- ing to Prof. Ernest Boyce, chair- man of the civil engineering de- partment. Deadline for applications, which may be obtained through the civil engineering department, will be Feb. 2. Group To Meet The Civil Liberties Committee will meet at 8 p.m. today in the Union. Read and Use Daily Classifieds Coeds Fill H By GAYLE GREENE "Coming to the University has been so profitable," a demure young coed said yesterday, point- ing to a trunk full of flowered china. "Bob and I can start out mar- ried life with a complete dinner service for four with these dishes I borrowed from the dining room downstairs," she continued. . * * BORROWING silverware, dish- es, salt and pepper shakers and even furniture seems to have be- come just another extra-curricu- lar activity on campus. Tales of the eventual reappear- ance of pilfered household items are heard daily. One woman unintentionally "squealed" on her boyfriend when she announced to the oc- cupants of a crowded restaur- ant: "I won't need sterling sil- ver when I get married, Elliot has the cutest pattern-A whole bunch of little forks and spoons and things with Michigan Union engraved on them." Another coed told of her hope chest full of sheets, accumulated over three semesters in a resi- dence on Observatory Hill. "The only trouble is," she complained, "How am I going to explain to my husband about this? Alice Lloyd is stamped on all my sheets. And a third countered with, "Imagine me trying to explain to my husband what "Health Serv- ice" stamped on the edge of my nightgown stands for." * * * TEASPOONS, SALT shakers and linens are common items which seem to crop up among stu- dent possessions, according to Astronomers Prove Theory The existence of carbon mon- oxide on the sun has been posi- tively proven by a group of the University's astronomy professors. Prof. Leo Goldberg, chairman of the department, gave a report of the discovery before the American Astronomical Society during the Christmas vacation in East Cleve- land, O. * * * THE RESEARCH was done by Prof. Goldberg, Prof. Robert R. McMath, director ofthe Univer- sity's McMath-Hulbert Observa- tory, Prof. Orren C. Mohler and Prof. A. Keith Pierce. According to Prof. Goldberg, the discovery will have two benefits: More information can be ob- tained about temperatures and pressures existing in the upper layers of the sun's atmosphere and better information should now be- come available on the abundance of carbon and oxygen in the sun. The research, which was car- ried on at the McMath-Hulbert Observatory, was done with a lead sulphide photo cell and infra-red spectrometer which made it pos- sible to study the sun's spectrum in great detail. Math Conference To Be Held Here A conference on mathematics, sponsored by the education school and the mathematics department will convene on Saturday in the Rackham Bldg. Dealing with mathematics in general education, the conference will concentrate primarily cn the teaching of math in secondary schools, from the seventh through the twelfth grades. ope Chests with 'U' Goods ,<"Fa" :., . / ;:;fr:";;":Y#r ., .." rt".":.-. .. ...N .. . .t ..

(Fritz) Crisler, who is out of town, or his assistant, Ernie Mc- Coy, be contacted. The tax, if approved, would be the first of its kind ever collected by a Michigan city. At present, the measure will undergo thorough committee scrutiny, and probable examination by the city law de- partment. * *, * MAYOR BROWN said that the weight of legal opinions available to him is that Ann Arbor has the right to levy "this very logical tax." "Ann Arbor furnishes its streets, its police protection, its fire protection, its lighting f a- cilities, and many other services to individuals who come from many cities outside our com- munity." "If it is necessary to have court action to legalize it," the Mayor continued, "we should be prepared to do so. I think there are many cities in the state that would wel- come our leadership in this mat- ter, and I strongly urge the Coun- cil to immediately prepare such an ordinance." Brown admitted that "it prob- ably would not be possible to put it into effect this fiscal year, but certainly it should be working by next year." INew Selection To Be Heard A composition new to Ann Arbor will highlight the Cincinnati Sym- i phony Orchestra's presentation ofI the seventh Choral Union Concert at 8:30 p.m. Monday in Hill Audi- torium. "Wasps' Overture" by Ralph Vaughan Williams is the selection not previously heard here. Other numbers on the program will be "Symphony No. 8" by Dvorak, "Symphonic Metamorphosis of Themes by von Weber" by Hind- mith, and "A Night on Bald Mountain" by Moussorgsky. Tickets for the concert are available at the Burton Memorial Tower. Michigras Central Committee Slates Organization Meeting The Michigras Central Commit- tee, sending out a call for all per- sons interested in working on the Michigras committees, will hold a meeting at 7:15 p.m. tomorrow in the Union Ballroom.

"MICHIGRAS is definitely an all - campus production," P a t Smith, '52, general co-chairman said. "Membership on the com- mittees is open to any and all students - the carnival succeeds through the cooperation of every- one, freshmen through seniors."
