Nearly 1,000 interested students toured the exhibits in the human, fish, and animal laboratories. Laboratory psychologists de- monstrated new techniques and equipment in the laboratories, and apparatus used in clinical and group dynamics tests was on dis- play in the halls. An interesting device to aid the social psychologist in a conference was the "interaction recorder." The "interaction recorder" is used to compare people in a group with regard to the amount of their par- ticipation in a group discussion, 'Memory Drum' The "memory drum," on display in the hall, showed that it is bet- ter to go through the material to be studied slowly, then review, instead of "cramming" the ma- terial in a short, intense period. A series of words rotates on a drum, and the idea is to memor- ize the words and anticipate each word before it comes around again on the drum. The "zombie test" is a similar personality test offering a series Waterman Talk Dr. Leroy Waterman, professor emeritus of Semitics, will speak before the Unitarian Student Group at 7 p.m. Sunday. He will discuss "Motivations and Achievements of the Revised Ver- sion of the Bible." WUE RTH ONE OF LIFE'S HAPPIEST EXPERIENCES X Yo of pictures of different types of, people to be judged by the sub- ject. He chooses the one he pre- fers best. The "box" apparatus was de- monstrated on the tour through the animal laboratory. The laboratory assistant placed a rat who was conditioned to the response in a glass box. There was a hurdle-like collapsible par- tition in the middle of the box the rat had to jump over within 15 seconds after he heard a buzzer or else 50 mill-volts of electricity shocked him. Dr.kNorman F. Maier of the psychology department has used the elevated "Y maze" to prove that animals can reason. Rats on an elevated Y maze use external stimuli in the room to turn either right or left at the "y" in the maze toward food. Dogs 'Shake Hands' The scientific way to teach your dog how to "shake hands" was also demonstrated on the labora- tory tour. The dog was strapped in a wooden stock for his. head and cloth straps to brace his body into position. An electrical current was gene- rated through the apparatus until the dog learned to lift his paw the right height to stop the current. The human test most liable to drive subjects insane was a record- ing device which repeats the words you say in a microphone two tenthsaof a second aofter you say them. The demonstrator remark- ed that lecturers are the only sub- jects who do well on the voice re- peating test. The fish laboratories, located in the basement of Mason Hall stress psysiological psychology - struc- ture and function of the nervous system. Experiments with fish bri system. Experiments with fish bring out principles of learning which are applicable to human be- havior. "The purpose of the annual open house," according to Dr. Justin M. Aronfreed, open house chairman, "is to give undergraduate psycho- logy students a chance to see the various equipment and techniques they hear about in classes and lec- tures. "Previously," Dr. Aronfreed ex- plained, "each class toured the animal, fish, and human labora- tories and watched the tests and equipment. But now, with 31 sec- tions of psychology 31, this is im- possible, so we devote one day a year for an open house." Rome Rush ROME ()-The Italian Road Federation knew traffic is ter- rific in Rome but needed sta- tistics. So it sent a test car through the noon rush when Italians go home for lunch and found it took: 41 minutes to travel just less than 7 miles, 137 gear shifts, 166 brakings and 198 uses of the clutch. Flint School Admissions Admission requirements for the University's Flint College were ap- approved by the Regents yester- day. Flint College will require at least 55 semester hours of acceptable work completed in another col- lege or university, the same re- quirements as those for transfer- ring to the University in the junior year. Also considered will be the quali- ty and content of the student's high school and college records. Not more than 62 semester hours may be transferred on ad- mission from any two-year col- lege, or 75 hours from any four- year institution, or 90 hours from any of the University's schools at Ann Arbor. Admission as a special student will be possible for matui'e ap- plicants who wish to pursue stu- dies not leading to a degree. Admission of special students will be at the discretion of the Flint College.

Ann Arbor Schools See 1 00th Year In contrast to its five buildings and enrollment of 1,700 students in 1856, the Ann Arbor public school system now includes 12 buildings and 7,600 students. In its centennial year the pub- lic school system has increased from an estimated $140,000 value to a system worth well over fif- teen million dollars. According to Jack Iszay, super- intendent of schools, the present system, which includes nine ele- mentary schools, two junior high schools and the new ultra-mod- ern Ann Arbor High School, serves the Ann Arbor area and one hun- dred neighboring school districts. These districts send from one to 100 students. This program offers such courses as painting, homemaking and car- pentry to interested adults. A special education course for the mentally retarded is also included. The system employs 370 certi- fied teachers, with assistance from approximately two hundred stu- dent teachers from the University's School of Education. In addition to the faculty, the system employs 130 non-profes- sional employees, of which sixty are custodians and the balance are secretaries and administrative aids. The pay scale ranges from $3,300 to $5,700 a year for teachers with an A.B. degree. Faculty members with a master's degree earn from $3,500 to $6,100, while those hav- ing a doctorate earn from $3,899 to $6,900.
