Linguistic Society of America To Conduct Conference Here Ben ton, feller Sparkle Al Stops Yanks Rapid Robert As Tigers Take Whips Boston Second Place With One-Hitter II Local All-Star Tilt 1 1 1, The Linguistic Society of America will hold its summer meeting at the University of Michigan which, this year, is the site of the Linguistic In- stitute. There will be three sessions of the meeting: Friday, August 2, from 2-5 and from 8-10 p.m. and Saturday, August 3, from 9-12 a.m. in the Rack- ham Amphitheatre. A subscription dinner will be held on Friday at 6 o'clock in the Anderson Room; of the Michigan Union. Prof. H. Kurath of the University of Michigan, editor of the Middle English Dictionary and the Linguistic Atlas of the U.S., is the local chairman in charge of ar- rangements. At the meetings, scholars, repre- senting over ten of the leading uni- versities of this country will read 18 papers covering the following lan- guage areas: Europe: Latin, German and Finno- Ugric;- Southeast Asia: MValayo-Polyne- sian and Thai; The Far East: Chinese and Japan- ese; The Americas: American English, Chatino, Mazateco, Otomi and Sier- ra-Popoluca. Of general public interest are three papers offered at the Friday night session. Prof. E. H. Sturtevant of Yale University will talk on "The Origin of Language" a topic which because it has been traditionally ta- boo at meetings of linguists is bound to raise considerable discussion. Prof. Sturtevant's paper will be followed by a lecture by the president of the Linguistic Society of America, Prof. Adelaide Hahn of Hunter Col- lege. "The Phoneti6 Basis of Ventrilo- quism" is the topic of a third talk, by Prof. K. L. Pike who is well known to Ann Arbor people for his yearly demonstrations of the technique of beginning a descriptive analysis of a language unfamiliar to him. In addition to the specific language papers offered, three survey papers will be read on Saturday morning. Dr. E. A. Nida of the Summer Institute of Linguistics at the University of Ok- lahoma andnauthor of a book newly published by the University of Michi- gan Press, "Morphology : The De- scriptive Analysis of Words," has just returned from a trip to Eng- land and will discuss "Recent Lin- guistic Research in Great Britain." Prof. F. Frauchiger, head of the modern language department at the University of Oklahoma, will report on the development of American In- dian ,studies at that university and Dr. Thomas A. Sebeok of Indiana University will read a paper on "The Present State of Finno-Ugric Stud- ies." Operatic Program To Be Presented DETROIT, July 31-(UP)-Big Alton Benton, making his first start since May 5, shut out the New York Yank- ees 6 to 0 on a five-hit performance today to pitch the Detroit Tigers into second place in the American League. Birdie Tebbetts, Hank Greenbergj and Dick Wakefield backed up Ben- ton's air-tight flinging with a homer' apiece, knocking in four of the Tiger tallies. Both the other Detroit runs were forced across the plate when start- ing Yankee pitcher Marius Russo walked Roy Cullenbine with the bases loaded in the first inning and passed Wakefield with the sacks jammed in the second. Benton had theeYanks eating out of his hand all afternoon. CLEVELAND, July 31-(P)- Bob- by Doerr's single in the second inn- ing robbed Bob Feller of a no-hitter today as the Cleveland Indians' fire- ball ace became the second Major League hurler to notch 20 victories with a 4 to 1 triumph over the Bos- ton Red Sox. Rapid Robert whiffed Ted Wil- liams for the first time this year and fanned eight other Sox to rocket his total for the season to 239. Feller swept honors for the day by belting a towering two-run triple in 'the second and scoring the Indians' third marker a moment later. Rudy York, Hefty Boston 'first baseman whose heavy hitting has been a feature of the League Leaders' Pennant drive, went downaswinging three times on Bob's fast ball. A local All-Star softball game featuring the outstanding Resi- dence League players against the best of the Fraternity League has been scheduled for August 7. In a meeting held last night Ray Steel, Fletcher house, was elected to manage the Residence team and Aimo Saari, SAE, was named to boss the Frat Men.

Marine headquarters lapsed into silence after anouncing three Marines were killed and 12 were wounded Monday by "armed, uniformed Chin- ese" in a cornfield ambush 35 miles southeast' of PeipJing. Unofficial sources said a fourth Marine died of wounds. Unable to get anything official, Peiping ground out rumors by the hour. The top one was a wholly un- confirmed story that 300 Marines rushed from Tientsin to search for missing comrades, engaged in a "run- ning fight" with Communists and suffered more casualties.
