Who Stole The Slide Rule

SOLICITATIONS:
U.J.A. Sponsors Drive This Week

By ROSE PERLBERG
With the goal of collecting
enough money to re-settle Jewish
refugees in Israel for their first
year, campus representatives of
the United Jewish Appeal are hold-
ing their annual drive through
Sunday, March 17.
It takes, says General Co-chair-
man Natalie Grodnik, $1000 to
provide for the care and establish-
ment of a newcomer to Israel. In
setting this year's $3,000 aim, Miss
Grodnik continues, the UJA Cam-
pus Committee reasoned that
"each of the approximately 2300 '
Jewish students at the University
would have to contribute only a
little more than a dollar."
Two-Fold Objectives
Miss Grodnik describes object-
ives of the drive as:
1) To get financial support that
will go directly to Israel and aid
to be distributed through Jewish

philanthropies in the United
States;
2) To make Jews more aware of
the problems that exist in Israel
and help them to identify as a
group in the American Jewish
community as a whole.
Elaborating on these points, Miss
Grodnik emphasizes the Commit-
tee's aim of "following through
one case" rather than spreading
aid over a large area.
Complete Refugee Aid
"If we provide for only a few,"
she explains, "but give all the fi-
nancial help that is necessary, our
assistance will have been more ef-
fective than if we had partially
cared for many."
The nine-year-old republic of
Israel has so far sheltered some
1,800,000 refugees and pioneers,
Miss Grodnik notes.
But immigrants, ousted from
such Middle East and European

"hotspots" as Egypt and Hungary,
{"create a need for swift and gen-
erous local backing "of UJA'S
Emergency Rescue Fund, now at-
tempting to cope with the influx
of more than 100,000 refugees cur-
rently pouring into the little coun-
try, she says.
Israel has pledged to keep gates
open to all endangered Jews, Miss
Grodnik continues, and the pres-
ent refugee crisis "requires $100,-
000,000 over and above the regu-
lar UJA bid of $105,000,000 for care
of 525,000 men and women and
children already in Israel or need-
ing relief in Western Europe and
the Middle East."

RIVALRY CONTINUES-Engineers may retrieve their slide rule
by attending the Chancellors Ball from 9 p.m. to 1 a.m. Saturday
at the Union. U
Rivalry To Continue
At Chancellor's Ball

BLUE,

By ELEANOR GOLDBERG
Engineers will have an oppor-
tunity to retrieve the slide rule,
a symbol of long rivalry, which
was captured last Friday by the
lawyers, at the Chancellor's Ball,
to be held from 9 p.m. to 1 a.m.
Saturday at the Union.
The traditional' rivalry for- the
eight-foot-long, white slide rule,
"representative of what engineers
spend most of their time on" ac-
cording to Charles Gerlinger, goes
back many years. This is the first
time in three years that the law-
yers have been able to steal the
symbol, thereby winning the con-
test.
The last attempt resulted in an
accident in which a professor in
Engine School broke his leg as he
attempted to prevent the lawyers
from stealing the slide rule.
Stole Slide Rule
Although the engineers put up a
good fight, the well planned and
coordinated snatching of the rule
was accomplished by six men who
used a car with a ski rack to get
away, said Henry Hancock.
The slide rule will be returned
to the engineers during intermis-
sion of the annual semi-formal
dance, sponsored by the Student
Bar Association.
Couples will dance to the mu-
sic of Don Kenney's band. Kenney
was a student here and graduated
from law school in January. The
Psurfs, law school singing group,
will entertain during intermission.
Students, Faculty Invited
The dance is open to students
and faculty of law school and
their guests. "The lawyers cor-
dially invite engineers who want
to come to a nice dance," stated

officers of the Student Bar Asso-
ciation and at the door.
Charles Gerlinger is general
chairman of the dance.
John Kehoe and Jerry Bader
are in charge of ticket sales and
James Koehler is in charge of ad-
vertising.
