NEW YORK (A')-The case of the shifting mail box has post office inspectors working over- time. The box, designed to accept parcels as well as mail, is sta- tioned at the southeast corner of 10th Ave. and 50th St. But somehow each night from Oct. 14 to 19 it got over to the southwest corner, and two. sturdy mailen had to lug it back. There has been no movement since inspectors be- gan watching from a secret vantage point.

All SGC Duties To le Told To Trainees By BILL HANEY Student Government Council will begin its program for training candidates for SGC tomorrow. Seventeen candidates will be prepared to fill the nine seats open on SGC. In speaking of the purpose of the training program, Larry Char- boos, '57 BAd, publicity chairman, said, "Because of the extended area that SGC encompasses it seems not only desirable but neces- sary that all candidates have a better than average knowledge of operation, functions and purposes of SGC." The major part of the training revolves around four special meet- ings and attendance of SGC meet- ings. Meeting Tomorrow The first meeting is at 4 p.m. tomorrow in the Quonset Hut A. SGC officials and members will explain the principles of individual election campaigns, election rules, and parliamentary procedure. The second meeting, scheduled for Oct. 31, will feature SGC presi- dent Hank Berliner, '56, who will talk on the relationship of SGC to the rest of the campus and the history of SGC and its predeces- sor, Student Legislature. When asked his conception of the system of candidate training, Berliner said, "the candidate training program is designed to acquaint the potential SC mem- bers with the basic principles of student government. 'Candidates Must Understand' "The candidates must under- stand what student government is, not only to conduct an intelli- gent campaign, but to be a full contributing member of the coun- cil. "First we will try to answer the question: Why does student gov- ernment exist? "Second, we shall attempt to outline the objectives of student government at Michigan, discuss- ing SGC's position in relation to other campus organizations. "Finally we will try to acquaint candidates with how SGC is at- tempting to achieve its objectives. "A successful candidate training program will insure qualified SGC members, an intelligent campaign, and an informed campus." The third special meeting will be an open forum Nov. 1 with Dick Good, '56, SGC treasurer, acting as moderator. Daily Questionnaire Good said he intends to use questions from The Daily Ques- tionnaire to sound out the ideas of the candidates on the import- ant issues of the day. Good mentioned the purpose of the meeting was not just to see how aware the trainees are of what is going on around campus, but to give them experience at taking over a discussion, handling it in an orderly fashion and at the same time express clearly what- ever opinions they have. The fourth and final candidate meeting is scheduled for Nov. 2. The topic for discussion will be the Administrative Wing of SGC. The purpose and structure of the Wing and SGC's memberships in such organizations as the Na- tional Student Association will be discussed. Candidates will also be required to attend one regular meeting of SGC. Publicity chairman Charboos pointed out that incumbents are not required to take part in the candidate training program. 'U' Student Guest On Ann Arbor TV Helena Szatkiewicz, '57, will be the guest of speech department television on "Dateline Ann Arbor" at 6:45 p.m. today, over WPAG, Channel 20. Miss Szatkiewicz will explain how her travels helped her to become proficient in seven languages. John Reed, publicity chairman for the United Church Canvas, will also speak on activities of the Protestant Churches in Ann Ar- bor. FLY OR DRIVE? Veteran Now Constructing Combination Auto-Plane POSITIONS OPEN: SGC Aids Campus Life v. e SAN DIEGO, CALIF. ()-A pri- vate plane designed to operate off land or water-or be driven like an ordinary automobile-is being built here by a World War II Marine flier who was the first man to test the Navy's vertical takeoff plane in flight. Stone Donates Finance Data The trust company movement in the United States is the subject of material presently in the Mich- igan Historical Collections at the University. The material, a gift; of Ralph Stone of Detroit, is an addition to what Stone has also given telling how Detroit was able to recover financially from the 1929 stock mnarket crash, A University Regent from.1924- 1940, Stone is the oldest living trust man. He is a retired execu- tive officer and present director of the Detroit Trust Company. An 1889 graduate of Swarthmore College, Stone also attended the University where he was manag- ing editor of The Daily, and editor-in-chief of the Michi- gan Law Journal. t Since 1927 he has been a trustee of the several Cranbrook Instit- utions. He is J. F. (Skeets) Coleman, and he has incorporated some of the features of the vertical takeoff plane in the new combination auto-plane. Called the Aeromarine, the new craft has a Delta wing of 43 de- grees sweepback. Coleman became familiar with the Delta wing's ad- vantages as engineering test pilot for Convair's division of General Dynamics Corporation, assigned to the vertical takeoff fighter, de- signated by the Navy XFY-1, but better known as the Pogo. A 215-horsepower Franklin en- gine driving ,a pusher propeller mounted above the wing, aft of the cabin, will power the Aeroma- rine. It will have a range of 800 miles on 80 gallons of fuel and a top speed of 225 miles an hour. Cruising speed, with a payload of four to five passengers, will be 200 miles an hour. Coleman says the 2,500-pound plane will be able to lift itself off after a run of only 800 feet.. "The primary consideration in the Aeromarine was to design a good airplane that could operate off land or water," Coleman says. "Adapting the plane to operation as a medium performance car was secondary. We were satisfied with a 50-mile-an-hour top speed on land because anything more might have interfered with its perform- ance as a plane." The race is still wide open fore five positions on Student Govern- ment Council. Candidates will find the Coun- cil, besides being a governing body, is interested in many other phases of campus life. Working with foreign students, various study committees of the University such as the Housing Study Committee and Student Conduct Study Committee, help- ing various organizations to strengthen their groups on cam- pus, supervising the exchange pro- gram with the Free University of Berlin, and revising and studying the orientation program are just a few of the areas in which the council operates. Three Standing Committees SOC has three standing com- mittees: Public Relations Commit- tee, International and Human Re- lations Committee, and the Cam- pus Affairs Committee.. The Public Relations Commit- tee attempts to keep the campus informed as to the workings of the Council, solicits student opinion when the need arises, and is in charge of setting up a speakers' bureau to inform the campus on specific subjects. The committee also collects ideas from other Big Ten schools for student government and takes charge of all-campus elections to the Council. The International and Human Relations Commit- tee works closely with the Inter- national Student Association to improve the foreign student pro- gram at the University. Initiate Projects Initiation of projects and the study of more immediate prob- lems of the student body in an at- tempt to find ways to improve stu- dent life on the campus comes un- der the Campus Affairs Commit- tee. Projects such as improving pep rallies, registration and orien- tation programs, the Student Book Exchange, Cinema Guild and faculty evaluation keeps the student on this committee well in. touch with campus problems. Book Exchange, and faculty evalu- ation keeps the student on this committee well in touch with cam- pus problems. SOC, as a recognized body of student government by the Re- gents, has the power to recognize student activities and groups, co- ordinate and delegate these activ- ities to be carried on by the var- ious recognized campus groups, to orient student opinion and to voice campus opinion. Working In Many Areas 4 At the present time the Council is working in several areas of im- portance to the campus: housing, driving regulations, rushing pro- cedures and student conduct. The student will be able to work with faculty, administration and other students in solving, and studying campus issues. Petitioning for candidates will continue until 5 p.m. today when they are due in Rm. 1020 Admini- stration Building. Elections will be held Tuesday and Wednesday, Nov. 15-16. 44 SGC PRESIDENT HANK BERLINER WITH EXECUTIVE SECRETARY MRS.
