By GERALD DeMAAGD John W. Sweeney is technically the editorial assistant of the Uni- versity Development Council, but his job includes more than prepar- ing promotional material. It is the aim of the Development Council to solicit grants to the University from private industry and alumni. A part of Sweeney's job is to re-write requests to busi- ness that come from various de- partments of the University. In addition he acts as a trouble shoot- er for Alan W. McCarthy, Director of Development Council. Program Investigated "The purpose of the 3rd Annual Development Council Conference held two weeks ago was to investi- gate just how successful our pro- motion has been," Sweeney said. Present in Ann Arbor for the conference were Development Council board members, Alumni Fund representatives, field repre- sentatives, and loyal alumni who are working with the University. One-eighth Contribute "We haven't been as successful as we hoped to have been," Sween- ey said. Only 8,738 alumni, about one-eighth of the estimated 100,- 000 University alumni are -con- tributing to the Alumni Fund he pointed out. The Conference speci- fically considered the actvities of the Development Council program for the past year, the third year since the establishment of the program. "In no case has the program been a failure," Sweeney said. .Student Committee The Student Relations Com- mittee of the Development Council tries to foster interest while the student is still in school Sweeney pointed out. The committee head- ed by Daily managing editor Dick Baroque Trio The Baroque Trio will give a concert at 8:30 p.m. tonight in Aud. A Angell Hall.

In spite of a six card suit north could not generate much enthusiasm, hold- ing a singleton in partner's suit. The burden for imaginativeness fell to west. When south opened one club, west had neither the suit nor the strength to make a bid. But when it came his turn to close the auction he* began to think. Why were north and south quit- ting so soon? Both could have bid spades or no trump, but neither had. One west's conclusion was that partner had strength and spades. So now, although too weak to bid his first or second turn, he bid two spades. This hand is, of course, from a duplicate game. No rubber bridge player would risk a possible large set to compete against a part score. His reward? Nine tricks. After the normal club lead, west drew trump and eventually lost only two hearts, a diamond, and a club. North Plays At most of the remaining tables north was permitted to play the hand at two hearts, and very few found the defense which defeats the contract. Most easts led a diamond which was won by the ace with a diamond return won by north's king. De- clarer could not draw trump yet, lest he risk losing three spade tricks. Thus he led a club, to establish discards. This west wins and leads a spade. East wins as north covers and takes the queen of diamonds and a second high spade. The de- fense has now won two spades, two diamonds, and one club. A third spade lead ruffs the dummy pro- moting a trump trick for west. I -Daily-Charles Curtis JOHN W. SWEENEY-The recently hired University. Development Council editorial assistant edits requests to private business for grants to the University. . The hands which attract the most attention are the so-called swing hands; those in which one misstep can cost a partnership a thousand or more points. These, of course, are dramatic and of prime importance in rubber bridge where one such hand can make the day a success. In duplicate bridge the part score hand becomes as important as the game or slam hand. This is because each hand makes the same contribution to success or failure in a tournament. Thus competitive bidding in part score 7.I U you be S -. s'z F1 'll love Sandra, the sweater withlittle girl bib topped with the sophistication If a turtle neck.

"It takes time to develop alumni awareness," Sweeney said. "Har- vard and Yale graduates expect to support their private 'schools but it is hard to do this at a state supported institution." People think the state will pay for everything, he said, but there are many things that we make possible such as faculty grants, fellowships, and out-of-state stu- dent scholarships which the legis- lature does not pay for.

Charlie Smith answers: They have an almost endless variety of interesting problems to face, George. As a student of metallurgy, you know that about two-thirds of all known chemical elements are metals. Many of them are revealing valu- able new applications, when highly purified on a com. mercial scale. Du Pont is greatly interested in several metallic and semi-metallic elements. My own experience at Du Pont ranges from work on titanium pigments, to metallic titanium production, and to the ultra-pure silicon used in transistors. You can appreciate some of our metallurgical problems when I point out that impurities in transistor silicon have to be below one part in 100 million.
