Strictly for amateur photog- raphers, both men and coeds, the contest has been divided into three divisions. Prints depicting University and Ann Arbor scenes will be placed in the campus and community scenes section, while pictures involving some phases of University academic work will be judged under the division entitled curriculum. This latter group includes prints taken in classes, dorms and so on. All pictures showing athletic, so- cial and campus activities will be entered in the extra-curriculum division. * * * ALL ENTRIES, which must be 5 by 7 inches-in size, will be judged soon after the contest deadline by representatives sent by the var- ious camera dealers who are con- tributing prizes. Several faculty members will also be included on the judging board. According to plans made by the committee in charge of the contest, there will be two judges for each division, plus a judge who will award the grand prize. Heading the award list is an Argus C-3 camera with a cintar F:3.5 coated lense. This grand prize will be awarded for the best over- all picture, irrespective of division.

As well as planning the local contest, members of the commit- tee have also been working on ar- rangements for a national Union photo contest. In order to find out what other schools might think of the idea, questionnaires were sent out to over 200 colleges. ACCORDING to contest chair- man Mark Gallon, the results of the poll have supported the idea almost entirely. Tentative plans for the nar. tional contest, which would be. centered here in Ann Arbor, call for display and judging at the Union. Various camera compan- ies would be offered a chance to cooperate in the plans. Several national publications tive plans.

The 1951-52 Women's League Council made the original plans to raise funds for the sound-proof- ing and furnishing of the three music listening rooms on the third floor of the League. This project was established in memory of the late Barbara J. Little, Delta Delta Delta alumna and former chairman of the Wo- men's Judiciary Council, who died in an accident in the summer of 1951. The listening rooms were fi- nanced by contributions of the League activities since 1952. In that year Frosh Weekend, Sopho- more Cabaret, Junior Girls' Play, Senior Supper and the Summer Session gave almost $3,000. The following year the same ac- tivities again gave over $2,000, which was supplemented by spec- ial contributions by individuals and a $200 gift from Delta Delta Delta to be used for purchasing furniture' in listening room 'B.' A picture of Miss Little also ap- pears in the room.

POLGAR Halls, universities, conventions and other groups. .He performed here last February in Hill Audi- torium. The program was spon- sored by South Quadrangle for the benefit of the University Fresh Air Camp. Polgar is a medium-sized, al- most shy fellow with a smile- wrinkled face. He likes people and has a keen sense of humor. He has lectured in this country since 1933, when he came from Hungary. He was a student of psychoanalysis, hypnosis and other psychic phenomena. When Polgar appears before an audience, billed as a man who can read minds, memorize whole ma- gazines at a single sitting and hypnotize many persons simultan- eously, some of "the throng are antagonistic, shouting at him mentally, "All right, you got us here.

Georgie Tech won the game. When the team lost their game the following week without Pol- gar's services, Atlanta papers pro- claimed, "The team needs Polgar." POLGAR, WHO lists college students as his best subjects and New Yorkers as the most difficult, has hypnotized approximately 15,- 000 persons to date.
