IT'S IN THE BOOK:
Dismayed Seniors Find
Mysteries in Catalog
By ARIAS GARON
"You mean I was §upposed to
read all this stuff in the cata-
logue?"
"But my advisor told me it
would be all right!"
"Do I have to take that course
now?"
Comments such as these sound
familiar to the Recorders for Sen-
ior Records in the Registrar's of-
fice. They are busy for the first
few weeks of the semester inter-
viewing seniors who have neg-
lected some detail in their records
which could prevent their gradua-
tion.
50 Per Cent Short
More than 50 per cent of sen-
iors, entering their last semester
have been informed that they are
short one or more credit hours for
graduation, are missing a distri-
bution requirement, or have failed
to meet some other regulation.
"Details, technicalities-anyway,
they are ridiculous!" commented
an irritated coed who had just
been notified that she was one of
many students forgetting to sign
a concentration slip at the end
of her sophomore year.
According to Assistant Regis-
trar Edward G. Groesbeck, all
graduation requirements are list-

ed in the college bulletin. Prob-
lems which arise are generally the
result of student apathy to reading
the catalogue.
"It may be there all right," re-
acted a senior, "but in vague un-
intelligible words hidden in small
print."
Burden on Students
Groesbeck agreed that students
may have difficulty in understand-
ing the announcement. He said
there are "innumerable details
of permissions and prohibitions
with the burden of completing
thesedegree requirements placed
on the students."
The C a t alog Committee of
each college has a difficult job, he
believes. Condensing it would omit
important details and expanding it
for clarity would make it too long.
Unable to Interpret
Students have reported academ-
ic counsellors are unable to inter-
pret the intricacies of detail and
sometimes appeal to the Chairman
of Academic Counsellors for help.
Is Anthropology 31 social sci-
ience or natural science distribu-
tion credit? An early clarification
of this point would have helped
many seniors who planned to
count it for natural science dis-
tribution and found they couldn't
because they had also taken An-
thropology 32.
Received No Credit
"A semester's work for nothing!"
complained a distressed coed. "And
I really need those four credit
hours." She had taken French 1
without following it with French 2
and thus received no credit.
"I'm sure my friend John got
more credit than this when he
dropped ROTC," argued one boy.
In answer to a statement like
this, Groesbeck emphasized each
case is individual. What applies
for one student may appear com-
pletely different in another case.
Groesbeck suggested students
carefully plan their curriculum
with their counsellors and concen-
tration advisors during their first
three and one-half ye rs.
He urged them to get distribu-
tion requirements fulfilled early
and also to have a few extra hours
credit padding to allow for fail-
ures or drops.
SCIENTIST OBSERVES MANUFACTURED DIAMONDS

By ETHEL KOVITZ
Will an American scientific dis-
covery indirectly aid Russia in pre-
paring for war?
This question has been pon-
dered by scientists throughout the
world since General Electric re-
cently announced that its labora-
tories could manufacture dia-
monds, according to one spokes-
man.
General Electric's top scientist,
C. Guy Suits made it clear that
his laboratories have produced di-
amonds not "imitation" or "dia-
mond-like" stones.
This is the only substance ever
produced by man hard enough to
scratch a natural diamond.
100 Produced So Far
The stones reproduce the same
distinctive pattern when pierced

Film Honors
Soo Centennial
First official showing of a Uni-
versity-produced sound color mo-
tion picture. "The Locks of Saulte
Ste Marie," was held yesterday
for members of the press, the
Soo Locks Centennial Celebration
Commission and the Michigan
Historical Commission.
Directed by Ford L. Lemer of
the Audio-Visual Education Cen-
ter, the film is part of the Univer-
sity's contribution to the centen-
nial celebration at the Soo.
The film will be shown Monday
night in Lansing at a joint session
of the House and the Senate.
University President Harlan H.
Hatcher will address the session.
On February 28, the film will
be shown at the Soo at a dinner
meeting of University alumni, and
it will be shown publicly after the
dinner meeting.
The University has also pub-
lished a 36-page booklet, "The
Saulte Canal Through 100 Years,"
by F. Clever Bald of the Michigan
Historical Collections. T h i r t y
thousand copies of the booklet
have been distributed and a sec-
ond printing is contemplated.
Student Hearing
Set for March 10
Deportation hearing for Buick
Navidzadeh, Grad., will next be
held March 10 following a three-
week adjournment granted
Thursday, Prof. Beauford J.
George of the Law School said
yesterday.
During the next meeting con-
ducted by the Immigration Serv-
ice an additional witness will tes-
tify on Navidzadeh's behalf. At
present, action taken or hearings
after the March 10 sessionare
indefinite, Prof. George concluded.
by x-rays as do the natural prod-
uct. So far 100 small diamonds
have been produced. They are of
industrial quality resembling those
used in cutting and boring tools.
The spokesman added that Rus-
sia today is not able to buy as
many of these industrial diamonds
as she needs. The lack held Ger-
many back in the last war as the
diamonds were needed in the man-
ufacture of precision parts in guns,
tanks and airplanes. Russia, too,
is handicapped because the United
States buys most of the world's
supply of diamonds, he continued.
It is strongly feared that if the
United States is able to manufac-
ture enough diamonds to satisfy
its needs, countries whose economy
depends upon diamond sales will
be forced to do business with Rus-
sia, according to the spokesman.
Other Problems Arise
Still other problems may grow
out of the recent discovery, he
said. For example, what will hap-
pen to the hardened metal manu-
facturers in this country? These
people earn their living making
cheap substitutes for industrial
diamonds. If diamonds can be
manufactured at a low cost, they
will be out of business.
For the present time at least,
the gem diamond industry has
little to fear from the recent dis-
covery, he feels. It is highly im-
probable that enough pressure to
make gem diamonds will be ob-
tainable for several years to come.
