A case devoted to mosaic glass displays some fine samples prob- ably made at Alexandria in the first century A.D. Venetian glass makers imitated this ancient glass long afterwards and the Italians gave it the name "Millefiori," which means 1,000 flowers. Mosaic glass was used for inlay, vases, and small ornaments. Another. case shows decay in glass. While ancient glass was fusible at a lower temperature it was nevertheless more likely to decay. Ancient glass has survived in Egypt better than in other coun- tries because it was usually buried in dry desert rather than in damp earth. A collection of glass lamps is also on display. When in use the lamps were partly filled with water. Oil was added and it floated on the water. The wick; in turn, floated in the oil. The lamps were set on tripods or hung from the ceiling. These glass lamps have con- tinued to remain in use in Egypt to modern times, especially for lighting churches and mosques., A case ' devoted to perfume bottles includes a number of tall green bottles, often called "un- guentaria." These were used in all part of the Roman Empire from one to four A.D. They held perfumed oil used after the public bath. One of the most interesting pieces in the display is a small blue clear glass bottle, Enoch E. Peterson, who directed the exca- vations in Egypt indicated. He offered a prize to the native work- men at Kiranis, for the first whole piece of clear blue glass brought to him. But none of them ever found any. Exhibits of the excavations are' open to the public at Kelsey Mu- seum, open from 1 to 5 p.m., Mon- day through Friday, and 3 to 5 p.m. Sundays, cU' Students Win Awards In Advertising Lawrence H.

Read the Classifieds Gobs Sail NIOC Ships North, South For 6 Wees Many of the students enrolled in the University's NROTC cur- riculum are now at sea in one of two summer cruises. "Charley" cruise, for contract students (those who go to sea once in four years), is sailing to Boston and then to parts of Que- bec for the summer. Students on that voyage will have the opportunity to see Mon- treal "Baker" cruise, for regular stu. dents (those who sail three sum- mers during their four years) has left for Valparaiso, Chile, for an eight-day stopover. Following the South American jaunt, the unit will move to Pana. ma and Cuba, where one of last year's cruises traveled. While in Chile, however, the sailors will be able to see Santiago and will have the opportunity to fly across the Andes. Both units participated in the Jamestown naval review last month before embarking to the foreign lands. Life on board ship, the mid- shipmen say, is as interesting as the foreign ports-but much more work. Regular schedules and class lec- tures, along with unannounced drills, fill a good part of their work days. The afternoons, how- ever, often schedule some time for sunbathing. The iajor complaint on last summer's trip was the heat-con- stantly over 90 degrees in the Panama area. Tarpaulins had to be used to cover the ship as pro- tecton from the heat for its decks. The trip through the canal- an eight-hour journey-is a high- light of the cruise. Short stays in Panama and Cu- ba provide some night life and social life for the sailors. } for ;c :,y Summer LANSING (-The chairman of a republican-controlled legislative tax study committee said yester- day he is ready to start the study on his own, without the help of Gov. G. Mennen Williams. In a letter to the governor, Rep. Band Concert Will Conclude Annual Meet A Summer Session Band Concert on the diag at 7:30 p.m. Thursday will be a highlight of the ninth annual National Band Conductors Conference. The conference will begin Wed- nesday when about 450 school band conductors will hear a re- cital at 9 a.m. by the Chicago Symphony Brass Ensemble in Au- ditorium A, Angell Hall. That eve- ning the Michigan Woodwind Quintet will give a recital in Rack- ham Lecture Hall at 8:30 p.m. Guest band conductors will be: Harold Bachman, University of Florida; Charles Minelli,. Univer- sity of Ohio; Ronald D. Gregoty, Indiana University; and Robert L. Arthur, University of Pittsburgh. Prof. William D. Revelli, direc- tor of University Bands, Prof. George Cavender, Assistant Direc- tor of University Bands will be in charge. Eugene Carrington of Allied Radio Corp. will lecture on "The How and Why of Stereophonic Sound" at 9 a.m. Thursday in the League Ballroom. Dalman Opperman, authority on clarinet reed making, and Prof. William Stubbins of the School of Music will discuss "The Clarinet and the Art of Clarinet Reed Making" Friday in Rm. 128, Harris Hall. Wednesday and Thursday read- ing sessions on new band litera- tuic will be held in the League Ballroom, headquarters for the conference. Rollo G. Conlin (R-Tipton) said he would call a meeting of the committee within 10 days to. get the study underway. Rep. Conlin and Gov. Williams have been in sharp disagreement on just how the study should be conducted. The committee chairman said he would appoint a citizen's ad- visory committee to aid in the study and also planned to hire a tax analyst to direct the research. Gov. Williams was invited to join in the project by recommend- ing appointments to the citizens' group but Rep. Conlin made it clear he intended to run his own show. The governor had contended that any citizens' group should take charge of the survey with the legislative committee playing a secondary role. Rep. Conlin was just as firm in insisting that the committee run its own project with the citizens' group serving in an advisory ca- pacity. "I sincerely hope you do not choose to remain aloof for partisan reasons," Rep. Conlin wrote the governor. "Our committee is bi- partisan and we intend to proceed in as fair and just a manner as possible for the benefit of all the people of Michigan." The governor had hinted he might appoint his own citizens' committee to survey the tax situ- ation if he was unable to reach agreemeent with Conlin.
