City Will Hold
First Blackout
TrialJuly 16
All Non-Essential Lights
To Be Extinguished;
Await State Approval
Ann Arbor's first test blackout will
be held at 10:30 p.m, July 16, subject
to the approval of state defense
headquarters, it was announced yes-
terday .by Police Chief Sherman E.
Mortenson, commander of the citi-
zen's defense corps.
The city will be completely blacked
out, with the exception of lights in
vital war production plants and rail-
way switch lights. Covers are being
constructed for the switch lights, so
that they will not interfer with future
blackouts.
During the 15-minute practice
blckout, all automobile traffic will
be halted. Motorists will pull over
to the curb as oon as the warning
sirens sound.
The warning sirens will be steam
and air whistles -at the University
and a number of defense plants. The
warning will consist of about two
minutes of broken blasts and the all-
clear signal will consist of a minute
to a -minute and a half of steady
blowing commencing at 10:45 p.m.
The city police, with the aid of 575
air raid wardens, will supervise the
air raid warning. Chief Mortenson
warned that "Offenders who refuse
to comply, with raid wardens' and
police requests or commands will find
themselves in trouble."
He also explained that tardiness in
setting the date for the test. was due
to the misplacing in Lansing of a
letter applying for an earlier date
permission. The letter, which was
addressed to Capt. Donald S. Leon-
ard, made six trips between Lansing
and Detroit. It never caught up
with the active Mr. Leonard and was
lost in the shuffle. By time it was
found the date requested was too
near to meet the required 15-day
deadline.
Rubber Appeal Is Issued
LANSING, June 26.-UP)-The Ex-
* ecutive Office tonight released an ap-
peal from Governor Van Wagoner for
a renewed effort over the weekend
to collect scrap rubber.
Michigan, the Governor said, is "far
down the list" of states as to per
capita collections. The deadline is
Tuesday night.

Local CAP
Membership
Group Patrols Ann Arbor
As Civilian Defenders
To Aid Government
Organized only last December, the
Ann Arbor Civil Air Patrol has
boosted its membership to over 100.
Patrolling the area of Ann Arbor
and vicinity, the group is under the
direction of Alfred R. Jngebrigtsen,
co-manager of the local airport.
The CAP is similar to the army
air corps and is organized under the
government, Earle L. Johnson *is na-
tional commander. While the CAP
is a government 'organization, it is
not government supported, and mem-
bers rent planes and donate their
hours in the air to the war effort.
Government Can Take Over
Should the situation become such
that the government deems it neces-
sary to take over, many, members of
the CAP will probably become paid
members of the United States army
air corps.
Many students in the University
are participating in the CAP and
the group boasts several female
members. Students in training for
pilot licenses go along with the li-
censed pilots on their flights and
act as observers in order to get
training for future flights when they
wgl be on their own in the air.
Meetings are held every Wednes-
day and Thursday nights at North
Hall, and licensed pilots, student pi-
lots, persons holding radio licenses
and persons interested in aerial pho-
tography are welcome to sit in on
them.
Members Get First-Aid Training
Since its recent organization, the
members of the CAP in Ann Arbor
have completed courses in Red Cross
first-aid training, army infantry
drill, army and navy organization
and courtesy, and gas protection.
Many members have passed the tests
for amateur radio operator's licenses.
Courses in photography, meteor-
ology and navigation are now begin-
ning and the course in Red Cross
training is being repeated for those
who missed the first course.
Some of the local CAP members
have already gone to the Eastern
seaboard for patrol duty there, and
others are waiting for their appoint-
ments to patrol duty.
A wing maneuver, or ;command
flight, has been called by State Com-
mander Sheldon B. Stears for this
week-end. The location 'of the meet-
ing place of the seven groups which
will participate is a military secret.

Affairs Scheduled
Today, Tomorrow

The first weekend of Summer Ses-
sion finds several campus organiza-
tions getting under way with social
activities. Without doubt their num-
bers will be strengthened as the town
settles down to a summer's work and
play.
Today Chi Phi will 'hold a dancer
from 9 p.m. to midnight. Prof. and
Mrs. Hessel E. Yntema and Mr. and
Mrs. C. E. O'Connor of Ann Arbor
will chaperon.
A party will be given by Congress
Cooperative tomorrow evening from
9 p.m. to midnight. Chaperons will
be Pirof. and Mrs. John H. Muyskens
and Prof. and Mrs. Palmer A. Throop.
Phi Delta Epsilon has planned a
picnic and radio dance from 1 p.m.
to midnight tomorrow to be held on
the Island and in the fraternity
house. Dr. and Mrs. J. D. Rosenman
and Dr. and Mrs. M. Sheldon of De-
troit will be the chaperons.

SOUTH BEND, Ind., June 26.-(AP)
-Manuel De La Torre of Northwest-
ern, a son of Spain, and Frank Tatum,
Jr., of Stanford, a Phi Beta Kappa,
will meet tomorrow for the National
Intercollegiate Golf Championship.
Tatum eliminated Harold Gjolme
of the University of Washington 4
and 2 today in one 36-hole semi-final
match, while the native of Madrid
disposed of Yale's Bob Kuntz, 6 and 5.
In the 36-hole final, which begins
at 9:45 a.m. (Central War Time)
"Sandy' Tatum, an engineering stu-
dent, will be shooting the works for
his first major golf championship
and his last in intercollegiate play
because his college days are over. The
closest the Los Angeles youth ever
came td* a big title before was twice
as a finalist in the Southern Califor-
nia junior tournament.
De La Torre, groomed into a stylist
by his father, a former Madrid pro
and European tournament competi-
tor, became the third Big Ten player
to make the final in the meet's 45-
year history and the first Northwest-
ern golfer ever to get through the
quarterfinals. He's as anxious to
win his first championship as he is
to get his final naturalization paPers
and become a United States citizen.
