WUERFEL Three alternatives for the future of Protestantism were presented yes- terday to members of the Conference on Religion by Prof. Wilhelm Pauck of the Chicago Theological Institute in his lecture on "The Outlookg for Protestantism," the last of three given for the -parley. Individualism versus the church, liberalism versus positivism and unit- ed Protestantism versus denomina- tionalism were the three possible paths of the future growth of Pro- testantism in the opinion of Professor Pauck. Do Not Identify Themselves "There are many of the educated middle class who do not identify themselves with any denomination, but follow their own religious philos- ophy," Professor Pauck affirmed. "The crises of the present day have not caused a growth of church at- tendance as was so often the case under similar circumstances in his- tory. Rather the number of regular church attendants has decreased, now forming only ten per cent of the population." "This tendency of individualism in religion is becoming characteristic of a large group. It is possible that the future of Protestants will tend farther toward this individual wor- ship.". The second alternative concerns the nature of theology, according to Professor Pauck, whether or not it shall be liberal or positive. There are two general features of the liberal attitude, subjectivism and realitism. Under these two features, all relative experiences must be related to the individual and must be seen with ref- erence to time and place. "Due to this basis, Christianity has succeeded in outliving historic eras by adjusting itself to changing cul- tures. This was due to the insight of the liberal theologians. However," Professor Pauck pointed out, "they took it for granted that they would preserve the Christian faith, but here they were not so successful." Warns Audience Professor Pauck warned his audi- ence against the kind of liberal who turned to the Christianity of the 16th century or of some other country for his beliefs for American Protestants cannot turn to the ritual of the Eng- lish church nor can 20th century thinkers take up 16th century con- cepts as their own. "Young theologians are in search for something to give them stamina. This can be done only by community thinking," Professor Pauck stated. As for the third alternative, de- nominations versus united Protes- tants, in Professor Pauck's opinion, most Protestants agree that there is no absolute division between the sects. Unification may be either uni- fied denominations or one neutral. The difficulty lies in the fact that a neutral church does not depict real Protestantism. While people will surrender more and more the prejudices of denom- ination consciousness, they will fur- ther unity, but at the same time they will have to. give themselves to new Protestantism. Sects entirely different will dominate the eras to come, Professor Pauck predicted. These new denominations to emerge which shall try to express Protes- tantism consciousness will be based in terms of politics and social con- ditions.

She left the switchboard only when the Michigan Bell Tele- phone exchange building itself caught fire. It was one of six business houses destroyed. Lingual Theory Of Strindberg Called Invalid Willey Says Author Was Completely Ignorant Of His Subject Though August Strindberg achieved great renown as a dramatist, his at- tempts to prove his linguistic theory that all languages are interrelated, and are derived from one language, Hebrew, were based upon "careless and slipshod methods," and "com- plete ignorance of the subject he was dealing with," Prof. Norman L. Wil- ley of the German department said yesterday in addressing the luncheon meeting of the Linguistic Institute. Linguistics had long been a hobby of the great dramatist, but, Profes- sor Willey said, he firmly believed that "with the lucid insight of a practical man of mature experience, free from the inhibitions of a Uni- versity atmosphere, he was far super- ior to the plodding lexicographers and research scholars of his age."- However, he pointed out that this belief was delusion, and that, "In nothing he has written does he give us so detailed a view of the odd bats hanging in his intellectual garret." "To disclose the complete worth- lessness of the research as well as the slipshod methods of this philological superman," he continued, "one need only examine a portion of his work." After enumerating many examples where Strindberg showed a complete lack ,of comprehension of his subject, Professor Willey concluded by re- marking, "Of Strindberg's philologi- cal studies in Nahuatl, we may state ;hat he had no knowledge of the simplest elements of the languages, could not pronounce it correctly and did not even copy accurately the plain print of a Nahuatl dictionary."

McMillin, head football coach at Indiana University, said to- day that mid-western football, as played by the Big Ten schools and by Notre Dame, Marquette and Michigan State, is the best all-around foot- ball played in anypart of the coun- try. Speaking before a group of Indiana University alumni, McMillin said the Eastern teams have more rugged line play, the southwestern teams have more spectacular passing play and the Far West may excel in end play, but the mid-western football teams combine more all-around football ability than the teams of any other section. Federal Hand In Education Urged In Talk Hutchins Emphasizes Need For Guidance Of Young Unemployed Graduates Talks At Education Conference Session Reorganization Of State's Education Plan Would Take Ten Years By TUURE TENANDER The need for Federal governmentalg participation in the administration of education and guidance for the youths in school or already graduated who face the prospect of unemploy- ment was stressed by Dr. H. C. Hut- chins of the Educational PoliciesI Commissioninhis talk yesterday af- i ternoon at the fourth session of the I Summer Education Conference in theh Union. The reorganization of Michiganv education will take 10 to 20 years, tt according to Prof. Arthur B. Moehl-' man who spoke at the third session e f the conference yesterday morning e on the subject "Basic Facts to be t Considered in the Reorganization of Michigan Education." In the afternoon session, Dr. Hut- d dhins presented the issues to be dis- cussed under the question "What ij New Educational Agencies Should be Developed to Meet the Needs of Un- i employed Youth?" + At the fifth session of the Educa-b tional Conference at 10 a.m. today inr the Union an informal discussion will be held on the trends in Michigan High Schools with special reference to requirements for University ac- crediting and approval by the North 1 Central Association of Colleges andA Secondary Schools. The discussions will be conducted by Professor GeorgeZ E. Carrothers and Harlan C. Koch oft the University Bureau of Coopera- tion with Educational Institutions.- The topic for the afternoon session,Ia which begins at 2 p.m. in the Union,d will be "Is the Issue of AcademicV Freedom Real or Imaginary?" Prof. Stuart A. Courtis of the educationc school will define the issues and Mo-i wat G. Fraser, also of the education8 school, will lead the discussion. Many recent trends were mentioneds by Dr. Hutchins which make thes schools of the present day more and more responsible for the preparation of youth to meet the increasing prob- lems of today. The decline in birthc rate, the speaker said, means thatv fewer young children are coming in- to the schools, hence affording op- portunity for more attention to youthc and adults. The increasing centralization of government has brought increasedr governmental pressure on schools, has made better social science teachingt necessary if democracy is to be pre-~ served and has implied a need for so-j cial responsibility, Dr. Hutchins said. (Continued on Page 4) A's Smash Out 13-Hit Barra e' To Beat Tigers PHILADELPHIA, July 14.- The Detroit Tigers lost an opportunity to, gain on the League-leading Yankees today, falling before the Athletics, 10 to 2. Beaten two straight in the current series, the A's won easily behind Har- ry Kelley's seven-hit pitching and a 13-hit attack of their own off Eldon Auker and Chad Kimsey.1 The Detroit infield also fell apart committing four errors, two of them by the usually reliable Charley Geh- ringer at second base. The A's concentrated their attack in the third and seventh scoring nine runs in these two innings. Chubby Dean walked to open the third. Moses singled. Auker walked Puccinelli and Higgins, forcing in Dean, and also bringing in Kimsey as relief hurler. Johnson singled scoring Moses. Kimsey threw wild to first, Higgins, and Puccinelli scoring, John- son going to third. He scored on a wild pitch. In the seventh Puccinelli and Hig- Conditions Described As Worst Since Influenza Epidemic Of 1918 Minnesota Fatality List TopsMichigan Heat Cases Are Brought To Twin City Hospital At Rate Of 3 A Minute x CHICAGO, July 14. - (P) - Strik- ng heaviest, even as relief in the hape of a cool rain-bearing air mass was rolling eastward 33 miles an hour, heat claimed its longest list of ictims today. The total number of fatalities for he 12-day torrid spell which accel- rated a crop deterioration un- qualled previously in sections of the arm belt, mounted to 2,827, up more than 1,000 for Tuesday. Conditions in several cities were de- scribed locally as second only in the death records to those which pre- vailed during the great influenza epi- demic of 1918. Late reports and revisions of lists n Minnesota sent that state's total soaring to 560, topping even the fa- tality roll of badly stricken Michigan, before cooling thundershowers ar- rived tonight. Second Only To Flu Epidemic The Hennepin County coroner (Minneapolis) said the deaths, there were exceeded for a like period only by those during the influenza onset. At the rate of "three a minute" dur- ng the hottest part of a day which saw a 106.5 degree maximum in the Twin Cities, heat cases were brought o the General Hospital. In Chicago where 222 deaths were totalled for the heat wave, morgue attendants likewise described con- ditions as surpassed only during the war time epidemic. The welcome rains sent the mer- cury down rapidly. Minnesota read- ings in the upper 70's and lower 80's quickly replaced those above 100 degrees. Minneapolis was drenched and the storm at nearby -Norwood was de- scribed as a "small tornado." Sweeping rainstorms late today also relieved central Michigan and brought surcease from heat which claimed 500 lives. The rain came within 50 miles of Detroit. Mercury Hits 120 Brawley, Calif., in the heat-accus- tomed Imperial Valley had a 120- degree reading but more than a score of midwestern cities were not far be- hind. The hottest place in the ter- ritory was Mt. Vernon, Ill., with 114.5. Only slightly less torrid were the 113 marks registered at Cedar Rapids, Iowa; Kewanee and LaSalle, Ill.; Wellington and Fredonia, Kan. Many stations in Kentucky, Arkansas, Mis- souri, Michigan, Oklahoma, Ohio, Minnesota, Wisconsin, Indiana, Ne- braska and North Dakota had read- ings between 100 and 110 degrees. To aid in ameliorating drought conditions which have,, according to one private estimate, caused crop damage totalling a billion dollars, Federal authorities in Washington, poured out new relief funds. The WPA allotted $1,500,000. All Students May ' Hear Own Voices On Studio Record The opportunity to hear their voices as only others hear it is avail- able to Summer Session students in Morris Hall, where a high fidelity rec- ording machine will record their voices, it was announced yesterday by Turrell Uleman, assistant director of University broadcasting. The high fidelity recording ma-1 chine, whose recordings are excelled from 30 to 6,000 cycles, a range wide only by commercial records, will ar- ticulately record all speech sounds1 enough to give a naturalness to speech that has not been achieved before. The records are of alumnium with an aceta compound veneer and come in three different sizes: 8-inch, 10-inch and 12-inch. All students of speech 151 and 152 are required to have their voices rec- orded, on one side of the record at, the beginning of the Summer Ses- sion and on the other during the final week. The recordings are responsible for better instruction, for the instruc- tor can better point out to the student his speech deficiencies when the stu- dent can hear his voice as others hear it. The fee for the various recordings and the time limit (for one side only) are as follows: 8-inch recording; $1.90, 2z/2 minutes; 10-inch record- ings; $2.40, 3% minutes; and 12-inch recordings; $2.80, 4% minutes. Dr. Sturgis To Give Speech On AnemiaToday Dr. Cyrus C. Sturgis ,director of the Simpson Memorial Research In- stitute, will lecture on "Anemia" as one of the Summer Session lectures at 5 p.m. today in Natural Science Audi- torium. Dr. Sturgis will discuss the symp- toms and causes of the disease and elaborate on the various cures now used in this country. The study of anemia has occupied much of the time of the Simpson Memorial Re- search Institute, where a compre- hensive study of it has been made. Following a teaching career at Har- vard and professional practice in the Collis P. Huntington Hospital and the Peter Brent Birgham Hospital, Dr. Sturgis came to Michigan as a full professor in 1927. He was appointed director of the Simpson Memorial Research Institute the same year. The following year Dr. Sturgis was appointed director of the department of internal medicine. According to Prof. Louis M. Eich, secretary of the Summer Session, Dr. Raphael Isaacs, assistant director of the Simpson Institute, will speak if Dr. Sturgis, who has been away from Ann Arbor since June 28, does not re- turn in time. Ann Arbor's Thermometer Drops Thirteen Degrees In Two Hours Several Are Hurt In Storm At Ionia State's Heat Deaths Are Estimated At 511; Rain Sweeps Central Portion At least temporary relief from the blistering heat of the last seven days came to Ann Arbor at approximate- ly 2:30 p.m. yesterday when a cooling breeze, accompanied by threatening rain clouds swept over the city, low- ering the thermometer 13 degrees in an hour and a half. The rain passed over but the breeze remained and at 7 p.m., the time of the last reading taken by the Univer- sity observatory, the temperature was. 87.5. The highest temperature for the day was at 2 p.m. when the thermo- meter showed 102.8 degrees. No prostrations were reported. DETROIT, July 14.-- W)- Rain in central Michigan and cooling breezes elsewhere brought life-saving relief this a4trnoon, on the seventh day of the te's worst heat wave which caused-or hastened-at least 511 deaths. The relief was accompanied by violence at Ionia, where three per- sons were injured by a sudden wind storm. A garage roof, carried for two blocks by the wind, crashed into the rear of a dwelling, injuring Mrs. Henry Stackin, 37, and her son, Don- ald, 16. The wind demolished a gas- oline station, injuring Robert Rockey, 16, an attendant. Mrs. Stackin suffered fractures of both legs. Her son also suffered a leg fracture. Heavy Damage Reported Extensive damage was reported at the Ionia fair grounds. Power and telephone lines were torn down. At Island Lake, 40 miles from De- troit, trees were uprooted and small buildings unroofed by a high wind. No rain fell in Detroit, but the temperature dropped from 104, re- corded during the afternoon, to 81. at 7 p.m. Heavy showers fell at Lansing. Temperatures fell from 101 into the 80's--then climbed back into the 90's. Port Huron, Bay City and Saginaw were spared a seventh day of the sweltering weather when a 20-mile breeze swept in from Lake Huron to drive the mercury down and bring relief to resorters at Port Huron the thermometer dropped 12 degrees within an hour and stood at 79. Bay City had 82 and Saginaw 88 at mid- afternoon. The Detroit weather bureau prom- ised relief in eastern and northern Michigan tonight by scattered thun- dershowers and breezes. If the cool- ing wind shifted southward over Lake St. Clair Detroit was expected to ex- perience a sharp temperature drop from the 103 recorded here. Midafternoon highs recorded in the state included a record 104 degree reading at Battle Creek, 105 at, Mt. Clemens, 104 at Bay'City, and 101 at Grand Rapids and Pontia. Adrian'stemperature set a record for the second time in a week when a, reading of 108 was recorded there at 2 p.m. Jackson had 106, Hillsdale 105 and Flint a high of 98. 3 More Deaths Reported On the seventh day of the state's unprecedented heat wave, its death toll stood highest in the nation. De- troit, worst hit because of the sudden rise from recent cool weather, to- taled its deaths for the week at 320. , At least 175 more were recorded in outstate cities and rural sections, some of them from drowning as thou- sands sought refuge from the heat on yriver and lake beaches. Dr. Beit U. Estabrook, deputy health commissioner, said Detroit's high death toll was accounted for partly because all deaths where heat e was contributory had been recorded as ,from heat. "For instance," he g said, "there were 143 deaths Monday Cool Breezes, Showers Snap Seven Day Torrid Spell; 2 ,387 Are Dead Education Of Henry Adams, Artist-Critic, Discussed By Spiller By JOSEPH S. MATTES "The education of Henry Adams" was discussed not as a history of the modern age, but as a literary work of art "that taught man to interpret his experiences to himself" by Prof. Rob- ert E. Spiller of Swarthmore College, a member of the Summer Session faculty, yesterday in Natural Science Auditorium. His lecture was entitled "Henry Adams, Artist and Critic of the Modern Age." not living up to the Adams tradi- tion. . This led to Adams' belief that he had been a failure, which he statedJ in "The Education of Henry Adams,"t but gave him the experience of study- ing man's internal conflicts, the speaker said. In denying that Adams had been a failure, Professor Spiller pointed out that he was a historian of first ra'k, and that by not participating in ac- tive life, one reason why Adams thought he had failed, he had gained that detachment which contributed to his philosophy. In addition, the speaker said, he wasone of the great stylists of- his period.
