'N CHAIN SAW:
Foresters Take Second Place in Big Ten Conclave
By PHILIP MUNCK
tween 150 and 200 foresters
five Big Ten schools attend-
Midwest Forester's conclave
weekend at the Proud Lake
eation Area.'
.e conclave,, held annually
1954, is the site of contests
nd the top forestry club ac-
ng to John Vance, '59NR.
rail splitting, log rolling, match
splitting, two-man bucking, log
throw and chain "throwing," are
included he said.
Roll Tape Measure
"The terrm chain 'throwing'
might be confusing to someone
not in forestry because it actually
means the coiling and uncoiling of
a long steel. tape measure called
a chain," Vance explained.
"If it isn't done just right," he
continued, "you get something re-
sembling a bird's nest instead of
a neat coil of tape."
The conclave this year was spon-
sored by Michigan State and the
participants were housed in the
building of the Conservation
Training School at Proud Lake.
Weather Not Ideal
The weather, he continued, was
not ideal for this conclave. "Half
the day (Saturday) the events
were carried out in the rain."
The University's club placed
first in the dendrology, chopping
and two-man bucking, contests pnd
second in rail splitting. Hubert
Trefts, '58NR, and Richard E.
Martin, Grad., won the bucking
contest. Martin also won the chop-
ping and dendrology competitions.
"Dendrology," Vance explained,
"as far 'as the contest goes, means
that there are 20 trees tagged that
have to be identified."
In the Compass and Traverse
contest, the men are given a ; set
of compass bearings and distances
to pace off. "If you're right, you
stop }on a spot already chosen by
the committee," Vance. said. The
score is determined by the distance
each man is away from the pre-
chosen spot.
"Log rolling doesn't mean burl-
ing a log in the, water," Vance

New Five-Year Program
Offered for Civil Engineers
The literary and engineering
colleges now offer a five-year com-
bined instruction program for civil
engineers.
Included in the program are
literature, language, fine arts,
philosophy, and history courses,
in addition to the customary
science and engineering subjects.
"It is in establishing a complete
TU' Research
Receives Aid
University research on crippling
disabilities has received a $11,734
grant from the Michigan United
Fund.
Originated by the United Cere-
bral Palsy Association of Michi-
gan, the research will involve an
intensive pilot study to develop
accurate methods for determining
the incidence and prevalence of
cerebral palsy and other related
handicapping conditions such as
epilepsy and multiple sclerosis.
The Maternal and Child Health
Unit of the University's school of
Public Health will conduct the
research under the direction of
Prof. Donald C. Smith.
He will be assisted by Robert F.
Lewis, research associate in ma-
ternal and child care.
understanding," said Prof. Robert
B. Harris of the engineering school,
"between himself and those with
whom he works, that the civil
engineer frequently feels a need
for more background in the hu-
manities and liberal arts than
that generally offered in a regular
four-year civil engineering curricu-
lum."
A student taking the program
must complete four semesters in
the literary college and six semes-
ters and a summer school session
in the engineering college.
"It is in recognition of this de-
sire that the new five-year pro-
gram was offered," Harris said.

The University's team lost first
because a log throw that out-
distanced the others by a wide
margin was disqualified."
The winning throw, by Purdue,
was 17.2 feet. For the, match
splitting contest, "a match is set
in a crack in a log and you have
three tries to split it with an axe.
Points are awarded on how close
you come to the match," Vance
explained.
First and second prizes for the
meet were chain saws. Next year's
conclave will be at Minnesota.
