THEMICHIGANDAILY General Mihailovic Dies Before Firing Squad SUNLIGHT SEARCH: Spectroscopy Studies Help Effect Advances In Science C Yugoslavs Execute Nine Chetniks For Collaboration with Germans v By The Associated Press BELGRADE, July 17-Gen. Draja Mihailovic died at dawn today before a firing squad. The bearded, 50-year-old Chetnik leader who electrified the Allied world in 1941 by organizing the first Yugo- slav resistance to the Nazi invaders, was executed less than 48 hours after Sturtevant Tells Of Translations. Explains Relations of Old, New Languages How the linguist is able to translate the records and documents of early history by studying the relations be- tween ancient languages and between the ancient and the modern was ex- plained yesterday by Prof. Edgar H. Sturtevant. Prof. Sturtevant, a professor emer- itus at Yale University, is working with the Michigan Linguistics Insti- tute as a visiting professor at the University. He is a specialist in the Anatolian languages, spoken in anci- ent times in Asia Minor. "Our knowledge of ancient langu- ages such as the Hittite, which was spoken in the second millenium B.C.," Prof. Sturtevant explained, "comes from several thousand clay tablets inscribed with cuneiform characters. Prof. Sturtevant commented that although Hittite and several related languages are not spoken today, some modern tongues were developed from the san'e "language ancestor" from which the Anatolian group came.

(27 a Yugoslav military court found him guilty of treason and collaboration with the Germans. Eight others who were convicted with him were executed in the same private military ceremony. People Lose Interest In this capital, the people appar- ently lost all interest in the convicted men once the death sentence was passed. The only official comment this morning was this terse an- nouncement: "Since the presidium of the Yugo- slav Parliament rejected the appeals of the accused men, all 'the death sentences have been carried out." Otherwise, Yugoslav authorities re- mained silent and adopted the atti- tude that the news of the executions was unimportant. The sentences had been carried out swiftly in accord- ance with the Yugoslav custom of exacting the death penalty within two days of its imposition. Eleven Sentenced The military court had sentenced 11 men in all to death, but two had been tried in absentia. They are Pet- er Zhivkovic, former Yugoslav gen- eral who once served as a member of King Peter's government-in-exile in London, and Maden Jujevic, 51, former Chetnik commander who now is believed to be living in Paris. Twenty - three other defendants were convicted and sentenced to pri- son for terms ranging from 18 months to 20 years. Formed Guerrilla Band The guns of the firing squad rang down the curtain on a tense drama which began in April, 1941, when Mihailovic, a regimental commander with the rank of colonel, fled to the hills before the advancing tide of German might and organized a band of guerrillas. His exploits in the mountain fast- nesses won acclaim throughout the allied world. Sheldon Warns Allergy Drugs. Not Cure-Alls Despite the development of a new group of antihistamine drugs, Dr. John M. Sheldon, of the University Hospital Allergy Clinic, cautioned hay-fever sufferers against undue optimism. . The drugs have benefitted some cases of hay fever, hives and asthma, but often cause drowsiness and fati- gue, he declared.- Dr. Sheldon added that the outlook for hay fever relief isn't entirely pes- simistic, since victims can be aided by being hypo-sensitized. This pro- cess involves the injection of pollen into the individual's systefn to build up immunity. The doctor also pointed out that the region in Michigan above the Muskegon-Bay City line is a haven of relief to many subject to hay fever, particularly from mid-August to the first frost. Womer Veterans Name Two Officers Lucille Schultz and Janet Roth were chosen temporary chairman and secretary respectively, and work was begun on a constitution at the first meeting of the new women veterans' organization last Monday at the Michigan League. Of the 126 women veterans on campus, more than 30 were present, and at least 10 more have indicated an interest in joining the group. Primarily intended as a social or- ganization, the group plans to aid Michigan's ex-servicewomen in or- ienting themselves to campus life by providing a medium through which they can integrate their activities. As an initial move, a picnic has been planned for Friday evening, July 19, at the "Island." The next meeting of the organi- zation will be held Monday evening, July 29, in the Michigan League. All former servicewomen have been in- vited to attend. Ever since the day when a curious investigator passed a beam of pure sunlight through a prisim to form a brilliantly-colored rainbow, on the wall of a darkened room, the study of the spectrum has fascinated and served men of science. Spectroscopy has made sweeping' changes and advances in all fields of science. In the field of chemical analysis the sensitivity of this type of test is exceeded by no other ana- lytical procedure. Silver, for ex- ample, can be detected in con- centrations of one part in 10 bil- Mexicatn.Fih Oes Tonight Del Rio Heads Of 'The Wild Cast Flower' INTERLOCHEN MELODY-MAKER-This eye-opening photo from the National Music Camp at Interlochen, directed by Dr. Joseph Maddy, of Ann Arbor, reveals that the fame of the camp has spread far and wide.

Lederle Airs Views On New PAC Leader 'More Conservative' Head Recommended In choosing Sidney Hillman's suc- cessor as head of the CIO Political Action Committee, Philip Murray should consider a "more conservative, American-born" leader, Prof. John W. Lederle, of the political science department, declared yesterday. Prpf. Lederle pointed out that this view of the situation merely consid- ered the "public relations" stand- point of PAC. "If this group intends to influence politics," he stated, "it would be better not to appoint a lead- er who might have connections with the left-wing Communistic labor ele- ments." In addition, Prof. Lederle said, Hillman was criticized because he was foreign and there is no reason to believe his successor would not al- so receive unfavorable comment if this were the case. Howeverhe contended, if there is no suitable labor leader available who fills these requirements, any "able" man, foreign-born or otherwise, would be "a good choice." Only time will tell what effect Hillman's death will haveon the future of PAC, Prof. Lederle declared, but it is certain that the "personal relationship and loyalty" that existed between Hillman and President Roosevelt, and later President Tru- man, will no longer be present. It is quite possible, he said, that the PAC may move in the direction of a straight labor third party now that their personal ties with the Democrats are weakened. BY-PRODUCT OF WAR: Use Of Microfilm Resulted From Lack Of Nazi Journals Delores Del Rio will appear in the Mexican film that is her major dra- matic triumph, "The Wild Flower" which will be shown at 8:30 p.m. today and tomorrow in the Rackham Amphitheatre, sponsored by Art Cin- ema League. One of the greatest movies pro- duced in a foreign land, "The Wild Flower," is a tragedy of a Mexican revolution and land reforms. Contained in the plot are feuds, revenge killings between families, conflicts between fathers and sons and a marriage between a land-own- er's son and a peasant's daughter. The story of the Mexican revolu- tion is told in retrospect as the mo- ther of the major character relives the happenings of the revolution. A short film, "Le Mystere de Mon- siour de Chateau du De, will be shown preceding the feature. Tickets can be obtained in the League, the Union, and all bookstores. Persons wishing to obtaii tickets immediately preceding the perform- ance, may purchase them in the League. Rep. Crawford Replaced As House OPA Conferee WASHINGTON, July 17-(0P)-Rep.

The cost of a spectroscopic labor- atory may easily run to $25,000, but the equipment soon repays the in- dustries which employ it by the time saving afforded. It is thus of tre- mendous advantage to the industrial metallurgist and chemical engineer. Much research has been com- pleted here at the University's Spectrographic Laboratory. The air interrupter, which is a device for timing electrical sparks in un- varying intervals, and the analy- sis of trace elements in iron and steels were perfected on the cam- pus. The feasibility of quantitative spectrochemical analysis in con- centrations running as high as40 % was first shown in the laboratory, which is under the direction of Prof. Ralph A. Wolfe of the De- partment of Engineering Research. Present research. Prof. Wolfe pointed out, is concerned with, the development of direct-reading in- struments, such as Geiger-Mueller Counters, electron multiplier tubes, etc. Thes would eliminate the tedi- ous photographic plate processes now employed in spectrographic analy- sis. The most valuable application of spectroscopy, however, is its use for chemical analysis. In practice, the sample is burned by means of an arc or spark; the light emitted in combustion is flashed through the, instrument, defracted, and photo- graphed as a characteristic spectrurr,. The science of spectroscopy may not seem to directly affect the lives of those who are not in scientific fields, but it vitally affects the host of sciences whose ramifications touch the daily lives and welfare of all of the peoples of the world. Library Exhibits Rare Manuscripts An exhibit, "The Bible and Its Transmission" is on display on the first floor of' the General Iibrary from now until the middle of August. The exhibition, prepared by Ella M. Hymans, Curator of Rare Books, shows the evolution of the Bible from its earliest forms to the present editions. Highlighting the exhibition is an original leaf from the manuscript of a third century edition of the epistles of Paul. This is part of the Beatty manuscript which is owned partly by the British Museum and partly by the University. Part of the exhibition was donated The wide need for technical in- formation contained in German doc- uments whose supply was very limit- ed, led to the rapid development of the use of microfilm during the war, according to Prof. W. G. Rice, Direc- tor of the General' Library. Prof. Rice said that important Ger- man technical journals were neces- sarily obtained secretly, and usually only a single copy at a time.

By making use of 35 mm. film, it was possible to record on a single roll the contents of a num- ber of journals. The role of microfilm and other photo techniques in the progress of research will be the subject of a conference on photographic aids to be held Friday. The meeting will be highlighted by two public lee- tures at 4:10 p.m. and 8:00 p.m. In Rackham Amphitheatre and an exhibition of photographic material and equipment.
