At Speech Alumni Reunion
I Willard Custer

{
Students will have the oppor-
tunity of seeing television in ac-
tion next Saturday during the an-
nual Speech Department Confer-
ence and Alumni reunion.
Prof. Garnet R. Garrison, of the
speech department, will direct an
original play by Vance Simonds
which will be telecast by the mo-
VA Sets Limit
For Renewal
a
Of Insurance
The 100,00( veterans in Mich-
igan who have not renewed their
lapsed G.T. insurance have only
until July 31 to do so under the
liberal reinstatement provisions
now in effect, according to Donald
G. Bachman, local VA contact
representative.
The local VA office in the Rack-
ham Building will maintain spe-
cial office hours to accommodate
veterans wishing to reinstate be-
fore the deadline. Regular hours
will be, maintained on Saturday,
g July 24, from 8 a.m. to 4:30' p.m.
On July 31, the last day of pres-
ent regulations, the contact of-
five will be open from 8 a.m. to
midnight.
Bachman stressed that veterans
must bring an insurance certifi-
cate, premium notice, or some
other document containing the
number of their policy when they
come to reinstate.
.
bile unit of WWJ-TV, the Detroit
News. The show will be presented
at the Lydia Mendelssohn theatre
at 2:15 p.m. and will be open to
the public.
Interesting Feature
A particularly interesting fea-
ture of the demonstration will be
the chance that the audience has
to see not only the back stage
teachniques of television, but the
finished result of the telecast.
Through arrangements Prof.
Garrison has made with C. H.
Dick, manager of the Music Cen-
ter, and RCA, a number of tele-
vision sets will be located in the
theatre for direct comparison of
visual presentation and television
reception. What members of the
audience see on the screens will
be reaching them by way of the
transmitter atop the Penobscot
Building in Detroit.
Address
Harry Bannister, general man-
ager of WWJ and WWJ-TV, will
address the audience on 'Televi-
sion in Modern Society." Bannis-
ter, who has been a pioneer in the
development of the television in-
dustry, approved early last spring
an agreement between Mel Miss-
man, Program Director for WWJ-
TV and Prof. Garrison for a se-
ries of original television dramas
to be jointly produced by the
speech department and WWJ-TV.
Hopwood Winner
The first two dramas in the se-
ries originated in the station's stu-
dios. Simonds' play, "Walls of
Glass," was chosen for the on-
campus demonstration. Simonds
was winner of the major Hopwood
award in drama this spring.
The cast of the play is composed
of Marilyn Scheel, Lynne Roemer,'
Don Mitchell, Richard Charlton,
and Josh Roach.

Of Invention
Channel Wing To Be
Subject of Pictures
Willard R. Custer, inventor of
the Custer Channel Wing, called
one of the greatest safety devices
in modern flying, will show mov-
ies of his revolutionary design to-
day at 10 a.m. in University High
School Auditorium.
The movies are shown in con-
junction with the Aviation Edu-
cation Conference, which opened
here today. The general public is
invited to attend the showing.
Good Chance
Prof. M. L. Byrn of the educa-
tion school, chairman of the con-
ference, visited Custer in June for
two days and said that "chances
are nineteen out twenty that this
thing wil Igo over big, and be in
general use in about two years."
Custer and gellow townsmen of
Hagerstown, Md., organized a cor-
poration for the development of
the U-channel wing. Prof. Byrn
says that Custer was offered about
one million dollars for his inven-
tion by one of the big companies
but that he would rather offer it
to the smaller companies and thus
keep the price down.
Great Feature
The great feature of the chan-
nel wing is that the airplanes flies
as fast as other modern aircraft,
but its landing speed is 15 m.p.h.
It takes off at the same speed, or
rather, lack of speed, and can rise
at an angle of 45 degrees, because
of its "static lift." This allows
extremely short runways. (The
stopping distance of a machine is
proportional to the square of the
speed).
Skeptical
Engineers were skeptical at first
about the invention and told Cus-
ter that he "'couldn't pull himself
up on his bootstraps," but tests
made at Wright Field compared
it favorably to a helicopter, in its
landing possibilities.-
GETTING INTO SHAPE-Third Party Presidential candidate
Henry A. Wallace, who is going to have quite a tussle on his
hands in the November elections, engages in an old-fashioned
"Indian wrestling" match with Sidney Stolberg, independent
Progressive candidate for Congress. Wallace won four straight
falls. The match took place at a political picnic at Asbury Park,
N.J.

concept of education.
"In the community school sys-
tem, the community's resources
are used and developed wisely as a
means of solving the commu-

Using an organization and pro-

community system would serve
adults as well as youths with the
school environment as a demon-
stration in the proper use and

plained.

Electioneering
UAW Protests Probe
As Infringing Rights
WASHINGTON, July 20-UP)-
A special Congressional commit-
tee is polling major labor, business
and religious groups on their po-
litical activities.
Committee aides said the pur-
pose is to make sure the Federal
clean politics laws are obeyed in
the 1948 elections.
Comes to Light
The poll came to light today
after a protest from a labor union,
the CIO Auto Workers, against
answering one of the committee's
questionnaires on its political ac-
tivities and campaign intentions.
The UAW 's secretary-treasurer,
Emil Mazey, agreed reluctantly in
a message to the committee to
answer the detailed queries about
the union's campaign plans.
Assertion
But Mazey asserted that the
quiz is an attempt to "intimidate
and deter labor unions in the ex-
ercise of their constitutional
rights and duties to participate
freely in the 1948 primaries and
elections."
The committee, headed by Rep.
Ross Rizley (Rep., Okla.), is a
special five-man group the House
authorized March 1 without de-
bate or objection to keep tab on
Congressional elections for pos-
sible law violations.
Similar committees have been
set up in past years.
Groups Asked
Among groups asked to answer
the questionnaires are the Re-
publican and Democratic Nation-
al Committees, the Henry Wal-
lace Committees, the CIO's Polit-
ical Action Committee and AFL's
Labor League for Political Educa-
tion, the National Association of
Manufacturers, and even relgious
organizations.
Each questionnaire is accom-
panied by a letter from chairman
Rizley suggesting that, as the
campaign gets hotter, the com-
mittee may require monthly "sup-
plements" to the original ques-
tionnaire.
Married Vets
To Get Holiday
Vacation at Fresh
Air CampPlanned
A rent-free vacation at the
University Fresh Air Camp for
married student veterans is being
planned by the campus chapter of
the American Veterans Commit-
tee.
According to Everett Bovard,
chairman of AVO', the camp will
be open to married veterans and
their families for a period lasting
from one to three weeks following
the end of the Summer Session.
The Central Lodge at the camp
and several smaller buildings will
be used by the vacationists. All
facilities will be furnished free ex-
cepting meals.
Facilities include swimming,
fishing, boating and "just plain
loafing," according to Andy War-
hola, AVC member in charge of
the outing.
Plans for registering interested
veterans are not yet complete but
an announcement will be made in
The Daily next week.
