EnGHT THE MICHIGAN DAILY TMMSDAY, JANuAny 15, 1953 EIGHT THURSDAY, JANUARY 15, 1953 I I I QUINE CLAIRVOYANT: Talking Horse Gives Coed Answers * * * * * * By HELENE SIMON Deciding to get some informa- ion "straight from the horse's nouth," Anne Beale, '53SM had , private interview with Lady the Vonder Horse during the Christ- nas vacation in Richmond, Va. After correctly revealing where he body of a missing boy would e found, Lady Wonder has re- eived publicity from coast to oast in magazines and newspap- rs. REGARDLESS of the national claim paid to Lady Wonder's ntelligence, Miss Beale said that he equine clairvoyant impressed her as "an old nag with a low Q." Miss Beale was one of 50 peo- ple waiting in a long line to see Lady Wonder. "I was the last one the owner let in, because the 27 year old horse was tired and had to go to bed," the Southern coed said. After paying the regular admis- sion price of two questions for a lollar (the fee used to be three for the same charge), Miss Beale asked what job she should take and where she could have the most fun. 1 * * * GIVING the matter due consid- eration, Lady Wonder spelled out the answers by pushing up let- ters on a modified typewriter with Readers! A meeting will be held at 7:30 p.m. today in 417 Mason Hall for students, faculty and staff interested in a reading im- provement course to be offered next semester. Donald E. P. Smith of the Psychological Services Depart- ment will describe the tech- niques of the proposed course and administer a reading test. Health Service -Daily-Chuck Kelsey ANNE BEALE, '53SM, INTERVIEWS LADY WONDER * * * <&* * * her long nose. She advised Miss Beale to take a position in High- land Park, Mich., although she would have a gayer time in Rich- mond. Mrs. Claudia Fonda, the horse's owner, instructed the prospective music teacher to write down the places where she had considered working. "But I'm sure Mrs. Fonda didn't see the paper or communicate in anyway with Lady Wonder," Miss Beale said. "Many of the people waiting to see the talking horse vociferously expressed their skepticism before the interview, but maintained an embarrassed silence after convers- ing with the animal," she contin- ued. "Even if Lady Wonder gets her answers from the owner, it is still amazing because she has revealed facts that no one but the ques- tioner could possibly know," Miss Beale said. Expressing complete bewilder- ment at the horse's skill, Miss Beale has nevertheless accepted a job in Highland Park-"although not completely on the basis of Lady Wonder's advice," she said. SHOE SALE fr Wen Flu Injections Draw Crowd More than 900 persons jammed Health Service yesterday to re- ceive injections which will help guard them against a virus in- fluenza, slowly making its way north to Michigan. The virus has already reached epidemic proportions in parts of the Midwest and Southwest. Re- ports of the disease center in an area extending from Indiana through Missouri, Kansas, Col- orado, New Mexico and Texas. No deaths have been reported from the epidemic areas. * * * ALTHOUGH only one proved case has been reported in the state the Department of Health in Lansing said that with modern travel, there is almost a certainty that there will be some cases in Michigan. Although the use of a vaccine has not been recommended by the state officials, health serv- ice directors of both the Uni- versity and Michigan State Col- lege have asked students to get anti-flu shots. Free injections are now being given to students from 8 a.m. to noon and 1 to 5 p.m. every day at Health Service. They will con- tinue until Saturday noon. During the two days that the shots have been given almost 1,400 students, faculty, University em- ployes andstudent wives and hus- bands have received the injec- tions.

Vienna Choir To Perform Friday at Hill Currently on their tenth U. S. tour, the world-famous Vienna Choir Boys, will be heard at 8:30 p.m. tomorrow in Hill Auditorium. One of the oldest musical groups in the world, the choir was found- ed in 1498, six years after Colum- bus discovered America, when the Holy Roman Emperor, Maximilian I ordered the organization of a boy's choir to participate in the performance of religious music in the Court Chapel in Vienna. First coming to this country in 1932, the choral group appeared annually in the United States un- til 1938. With the outbreak of World War II in 1939 the Rev. Fr. Joseph Schnitt, rector of the choir, was arrested by the Nazis and the group disbanded. REORGANIZING after the war the choir again has made appear- ances in this country beginning in 1948. While the choir boys have been here they have been introduced to endless varieties of ice cream and milk so much richer than what they have been used to that it made many of them sick. The group of 20 boys, ages seven to twelve, travel in a specially equipped bus' together with the rector, choral master and nurse. For their Ann Arbor perform- ance the boys will sing selections by Gallus, Sveelinck, Bruckner, Hedding, Schubert, Schumann, Strauss and a complete operetta by Mozart. Tickets for the concert are avail- able at the office of the University Musical Society in Burton Tower. Last Jerome Lecture Given Arthur Boak, Richard Hudson Professor of Ancient History, yes- terday traced and correlated the factors causing the fall of the an- cient Roman Empire, explaining that it was the result of no single cause, but a combination of inter- acting factors. Giving the fifth and last lec- ture in the Jerome Series on "Man- power in the Western Roman Em- pire," Prof. Boak told how man- power shortage, resulting from a decline in birth rate, and a lessen- ing in agricultural production, was related to the ultimate fall of the empire.
