THE MIICHIGAN PATLY SATUILDAY, DUSTY SPLENDOR: Silent Figurines Stand Guard In OldUniversityA Auditorium Looking Down on ihe Convention aring Arrows o o D~augers of Fast Driving Sveellinrg en;rollment figures these past few years have caused space-harried University adminis- trators to appropriate every avail- able room on the campus for class- room use, but there's still one place that has remained safely out of their reach. From one year's end to the next, the old University auditorium on At Convention (Continued fror Page 1) Among those who have been drawn to Philadelphia by the Con- vention are Harvey Leve, former Daily movie reviewer; Dan Dwor- sky, Michigan footballer and Daily cartoonist; and Dave Dutcher, president of the Student Legisla- ture. Also here is Jim Schoener who heads the University's recent- ly organized Young Republicans; he is working with the Michigan delegation. At Stassen press conferences they serve Wisconsin cheese and beer. Even with all the handouts, though, the nation's newspaper editors will be amazed at the ex- pense accounts their boys bring home. Woinents' Summer Hours Announced Women students on campus this summer have an extra half hour's grace on week day nights to stretch out those long summer eveniiigs. Closing hours for undergraduate women during the summer are 11 p.m. from Sunday through Thurs- days, and 12:30 a.m. on Friday and Saturday. Women living in graduate houses are not required to keep hours. Hours for graduates living in sororities, league houses, or dormitories are set by the indi- vidual house. the second floor of 'U' Hall is al- most undisturbed by human foot- prints, except for occasional for- ays to the the filing cabinets which have encroached upon its dusty, pottery-laden floor. Art objects ranging in size and from shape, from bronze medal- lions commemorating the Oregon Trail to life-sized casts of human bodies, are scattered helter-skel- ter around the room, which has apparently assumed the status of a haphazard storeroom. Annual Figures Upstairs, the seats of the gallery are literally lined by a whole host of animal figurines. One of these, a sober-eyed owl, bends danger- ously forward, as if in a pose of rapt attention, but the numerous busts of Lincoln have a more con- ventional aspect. On a table in the deserted audi- torium lie some half-completed letters, and outdated ph~one di- rectory, and an unused package of clay, all of which combine to create the impression that activity here has not really stopped, but has merely been interrupted. A steady sound of typing comes from the rooms aljoining the audito- rium, as if to deny the reality of its complete remoteness and isolation. As if also denying the idea that the slowly deteriorating chamber ,s no longer of any practical use, a telephone sits on the floor in the middle of the room. Although nev- er used, the phone is still con- nected. Velvet Curtains Traces of the auditorium's for- mer majesty can still be seen in the plush green velvet curtains, now just a crumpled heap in a cardboard box, and the cracked gilt lettering of the motto (taken from the Ordnance of 1787 on Education) which surmounts the oval of the stage. T he auditorium has been the site of many memorable events, in- cluding speeches by two famous visitors to the campus-Theodore and Matthew Arnold. Its present function is somehow a fitting con- clusion to its distinguished ca- reer. T'he C'ity Beat An Ann Arbor dog failed in his duty to protect his master Thurs- day when Miss Anna Lawry, 65, 322 E. Ann St., was bitten in the leg by a cat. Her dog who was trotting along at her side failed to catch the cat that suddenly appeared from be- hind, according to police reports. She was treated at St. Joseph's Hospital. S* * Casper N. Enkemann, Ann Ar- bor Police Chief, was one of 55 law enforcement officers to receive di- plomas from the National Police Academy of the FBI, in Washing- ton yesterday. The 12 week training course, which was for training police chiefs and other key law enforce- ment officers so that they could establish special courses in their local departments, included fire- arms instruction, investigative techniques, organization and ad- ministration. During Chief Enkemann's ab- sence, Capt. Albert Heuse, detec- tive bureau head, acted as director of the police department. Enlistments in Company K, All Arbor National Guard detachment of the 125th Infantry Reginient were expected to decline sharply yesterday, by Capt. Roman Woj- ciehowski, commanding officer. The Unit had experienced heavy enlistments before President Tru- man signed the Draft Law Thurs- day but now enlistees are subject to draft, he stated. All National Guard recruitment will end Saturday Noon, according to the State Adjutant General's office. By CRAIG WILSON Something new will.be added to the speed-o-meters of most Ann Arbor cars beginning next week. Red stickers in the shape of an arrow, with the legend: "25 - takes 60 feet to stop" pointing to the 25 miles-per-hour mark will be glued in local automobiles by gas attendants cooperating with Ann Arbor police in a campaign to help reduce the nation's terrifying Fourth of July accident toll, "The stickers are one phase of The first concert of the four- chamber music programs during the. summer session will be pre- sented at 8 p.m. Monday in the Rackham Lecture Hall.

Enkemann an- nounced. Present plans of the police de- partment call for several five- minute talks on safety over station WPAG and a number of 'spot' ra- dio announcements, according to Capt. Roland J. Gainsley, of the Traffic Bureau. Display posters also will be used to emphasize the slogan: "Speed Kills; Take It Easy," Capt. Gains- ley said. Chief Enkemann predicted that traffic on Independence Day weekend would hit a new high be- cause many new cars are now in use and citizens are still catching up on. the pleasure driving they missed during the war years. Law enforcement officers plan to extend the campaign through July.
