I NICKELS ARCADE Fa .s t Co. Detroit Universities, colleges, and technical schools throughout the country, organ- ized as the Intercollegiate Intelligence bureau, are giving valuable aid to the government in the present crisis. At the present time nearly 150 such in- stitutions are co-operating in this work. , Through questionnaires and like means, the adjutants and committees of the organization keep accurate in- formation on file regarding students and alumni so that upon request names of men fit to serve the govern- ment in any required capacity can be sent. Four thousand men of special- ized training have been thus placed at important government war work re- quiring-sjecialized training. Commieree and Industry Aided -Industrial and commercial establish- ments are al o calling for help through this bureau and their necessities are nearly as great as those of the gov- ernment. Another important work of this or- ganization is that of getting the boys into business again, when they return home. The Union offices in Europe will co-operate with the bureau offices here. The Union will register men who are about to come home, and will send their qualifications and desires for the future to the bureau here, which will try to have a place for them when they arrive. Men forced through disablement to enter new activities will be given a prompt and good start. To assist this work, plans are under way to have a New York office of call for the- convenience of the men when they land. Monthly Budget High The budget of the bureau, in addi- tion to a large number of volunteer subscriptions, is $2,000 per month. Any college, university, or technical school may become a member of the bureau by paying $50, $150, or $250, as it de- sires. It has been suggested by prominent college men that the bureau may look forward to a permanent -existence as a co ordinatin organization for all college employment bureaus. SHIP YARD WORKERS' RESERVE ORGANIZED BY GOVERNMENT T Men To Be Sent For Service As Soon As Accommodations Are Provided Washington, Jan. 15.--A plan for re-~ cruiting a volunteer reserve of 250,000 ship yard workers, was announced to- night by the shipping board.' The nTti will be. enlisted with tGW aid of state councils of defense and the labor department's employment agencies. They will be sent to the yards as fast as their services can be utilized. Approval today by the senate com- merce committee of a bill appropri- ating $80,000,000 for providing hous- ing accommodations for ship yard workers, led shipping board officials to believe that the entire reserve may be put t work before the end of the year. PLANKS WILL FE AVAILABLE FOR APPLICANTS THURSDAY Men interested in the aviation branch of the army will have the op- portunity to talk with Capt. Paul 0. Magoffin, president of the aviation examining board a Detroit, in the Athletic association offices of th Press building, between the hours of 2:30 and 7 o'clock Thursday. Captain Magoffin will answer questions rela- tive to the aviation schools for officers, and will have a supply of blanks on hand for those wishing to enlist. "Michigan men ar making a good record in this service," said Captain Magoffin, Tuesday, "I would like to see how many Michigan men will be- come officers." Requirements In regard to requirements for appli- cants Captain Magoffin continued, "Flyers are needed and all flyers after training will receive commissions. Men must be in excellent physical condition, eyes perfect without the aid of glasses; ears normal, and heart and lungs normal. Attention is paid to nose and throat, but such troubles, eas- ily remedied, do not bar. It is not nec- essary to be an athlete, but it is to be normal. There is an especial appeal to college men in this service." No Observers Needed No examinations are being made at present for the balloon service or for aerial observers. Flying is the only °branch open. All men making application should continue their pres- ent vocations, whether at school or work, until placed on active duty and sent to aviation school. Few Accidents According to Captain Magoffin, the elements of injury by accident are so lowered by the scientific training re- ceived and the general qualifications demanded of the applicants, that sea- soned flyers now believe automobile 'drivingto be accompanied by more dangers. "Airplanes will win the war," de- clared the captain,."in the sense that they play the essential part in the strategic tactics as well as in active combat. The man in the leather jacket of the aviator is almost on a plane with the knights of medieval times-- he has an unequalled chance to show the stuff that is in him," Headed '07 Team Captain Magoffin was graduated from Michigan In 1908, He was captain of the famous '07 football team, when in the historic Penn game, Michigan was scored on for the first and only time all year. The captain was a lead- er of the students in the fight to with- draw from the conference. He ex- pressed the opinion several days ago, that, he believed that Michigan was again in her natural sphere and that the University would take the part of leader, which she relinquished at the time of withdrawal from the con- ference.
