Colonel Draper warned that it must he remembered the morale of the people is even more important than material reorro ing today, in spite of the mock anlzation of warfare, the morale is six times as important as the weapons themselves. Citing an example, the French and the italians as contrasted with the English and Greeks, he declared, “National morale, as reflected in the will of our army to win, in the will of the whole people, to endure, spells: victory or defeat. it is in that spirit that the college. and the college student, and our whole people must determine their attitude toward national do» louse if America is to look to the future and not to the past.” Col. Draper further defined the position of college students by commenting on the appeals for the dcferrmcnt of college stu- dents. He asked, “Can college students afford to ask for mini leges denied the other young men of this generation? Can they ai- i‘ord to be accused of wanting to serve only when and if it best suits their convenience? Would that attitude on the part of those to whom the nation looks to as its future leaders raise the national morale?” On the contrary, be con tended that, “you who are enjoy— ing the opportunities of higher education are and must necessar- ily be the leaders of your age group. Rather than asking one cial privileges as college students, you will, I know, assume special responsibilities should the danger that threatens become real.” The army is looking for leaders: and the colleges will supply them, he further implied. The proposed training of col- lege students for four months each summer for three succes— sive years would make it impos- sible to build an army comparable to those fighting machines of Europe, he opined. “Coordination of all arms is the secret of suc- cess in modern battle. This is lost if new units must be organized each summer and disbanded each fall.” Colonel Draper concluded, “To. day as danger again threatens the Republic, we must each give thought to the background and the meaning of our American na- tion, to its history and to its fu- ture. Each of us, whether college student, business man or mechan— ic, must consider, quietly and ser- iously. our own personal obliga- tion to God and country. If we all do that and act accordingly, the future is safe, come what in on Miss Haley Delivers Tlfcxtilc Tall; All; li’l‘ Miss Alice Haley, of the Colan- ese Corporation of America, spoke last Friday at Lewis on the back— ground of the man-made fibers and on the specific properties of celanese fabrics. Because of the war situation man-made fibers will become in- creasingly popular in this coun» try. The manufacturers have risen to the demand and have produced an infinite variety of fabrics, the quality and texture dependent only on the imagina- tion and ingenuity of the scion. list himself. Samples of yarn and cloth were passed around the group that the students might examine the mat: erial. The speaker concluded with a consideration of consumer prob lems and helpful hints in caring for rayon fabrics and clothes. ficnccrl‘w (continued from page two) Hrubes has a beautiful French type trombone tone. and in his encore “Still Be the Night" he displayed great musical taste. He should work more in the legato field than he has because therein lies his greatest talent. Gus Mus- lakus’ violin solo was the high spot of the evening. His tone and technique are on a par close to Elman’s. Fast runs, harmonics. douiilo stops, and slow legato are produced by him with eiiortlcss beauty. it is too bad that Gus; leaves us this year. It would be good to hear him play a concerto (Blanch) for us. May we hear from him again some time in the inlure. 'l‘o Mr. Erickson goes final and greatest credit for what was done. Despite the great handicaps under which ho worked. he produced a sublimc evening for all. He oli— rcciod with great mastery, and demonstrated a very high musical sense. “4 R 9"}: 1' ‘ R” n!

Chicago will be host this month to the Seventh Annual Chemurgic Conference of Agriculture, Indus- try and Science. The Conference, sponsored by the National Farm Chemurgic Council, will be held March 26, 27, and 28. at the Ste- vens Hotel. Revolving about the theme “Chcnmrgy in Defense and Bow yond," sessions will be held feav turing speakers prominent in re latcd fields. Chemurgy, which is the science of utilization of na- tural resources, is even in pcace~ time an important science. In wartime “u. might well become a decisive factor. Friday evening, March 28, will be devoted to a Youth Program, the theme of which will be “On— pormnities for Tomorrow.” Young men of national reputation, who have translated chcmurglc ideas into jobs, will discuss em- ployment opportunities for youth in the field. This session will be open to the general public and special invitations are being ex- tended to all students interested in vocational opportunities pre. sented by scientific development. liionroo Qhonulnpm (continued from page one) student or the school.

Wotmclotion With a revorhcrating crash an entire wall in the main building of tho Armour Research Founda» tion suddenly dropped 6 inches. The research stall“ paid no atten- tion. immediately a motor wlilrr ed. anti the wall slowly rose to its original position, only to crash again. The wall was not a part of the building, “out a specially con- structed test unit erected in the middle of the laboratory. The Experimental Engineering Divi- sion was finding out how much of this sort of thing the wall could take. Eltali‘ oi Specialists The Experimental Engineering Division, headed by James C. Fashion, is maintained primarily to conduct engineering and test- ing work incident to the develop- ment of many products and de- vices. Hence its staff includes men whose specialties cover a number of fields. In this division are Dr. Carl G. Anderson, mech- anical engineer, Dr. Ernst L. Schwarz, electrical engineer, Non man C. Pcnfold, automotive en- gineer, Dr. Max Jakob, renowned heat transfer authority, and re- scarch assistants Irwin Field- house, Clark A. Crawford, Vernon Carr, Frank Hurney, Earle Cou— den, Lester Tripp and Sam Sgar- late. The principal Experimental En- gineering laboratories are in the main Research Foundation build- ing. One is outfitted for the study of thermal insulation of all types, while another is used for many unusual tests on air-conditioning equipment, meters, electrical dc; vices curd other articles of manu- facture. Adjoining the insulation laboratory is a cement-lined room the size of a two-car garage, built like a huge ice box surrounded by four inches of cork. No less than lit lhermocouplcs are em- bedded in its walls, floor and cell. log, all connected to selector pan- els. Within the room are radii» tors, electrical outlcts and re- frlgcratlng coils with air-circulat- ing tans. Herc automatically con- trolled artificial weather can be produced and its effect upon house construction studied accurately. in the new Experimental En— gineering building is the golf lab oratory where a special machine tests and classifies golf balls. Next to this is a large room wherein are being erected three wind tun» nele, one of them ten feet in diameter. Also in this building is the Diesel laboratory, where six engines turn generators night and day to yield data on lubricants. Varied Research Projects More than 400 long and short- term investigations have been un- dertaken by the Experimental En gineering Division during the past year, including such subjects as coal stokcrs, stoves, crane girders, exhaust blowers, farm, gear re~ ducers, golf balls and implements, lubricants, solenoid brakes, cat~ alyst measurements, thermal in- sulation, window shades, window construction, wall plaster, air-con- ditioning equipment, vapor—proof and water-proof linings, copper roofs, skylights, automotive test- ing equipment, relief valves and many others whose confidential nature prohibits mention. “tine Mo all Home“ fines gonopy, like Navy @Ivcs Erllln Ellie olive lily Snoopy the Broop At last the deep, dark, secret of the class of ’42 has been exposed! That group of so-callcd students known as juniors have been clas- sed oificially as a “bunch of crip- ples, misfits and blind men." These facts were made known to the general public during the re- ccnt physical iests given to ap- plicants for commissions in the Naval Reserve.

However, vulge his personal experiences in the test. “As I reached the front of the line, everything went black in one eye. Believing that. I had been on the wrong end of a fifth col- umnist’s gun, I screamed for help. Suddenly, a long bony hand grip- ped my arm, and I was told that this was the beginning of the eye test. ”The voice continued, telling, me t r: all” M of in he consented to (11-, low ~-- ii? to read the chart on the wall. ”What wall,’ I. innocently asked. I finally proceeded to the wall, and having read the letters by the Braille system, I was told to have my teeth examined. “Nerves on edge, I cautiously moved toward a powerful looking sailor. Anxious to obey orders, I closed my mouth as soon as I was told. (It might have been sooner.) Suddenly the quiet of the room was broken by a loud scream. ‘Open your mouth and let me take my hand out’, the irate sailor demanded. Comply» mg with his demand, 1 opened my mouth and moved on to the next man. “ ‘What is your LQ. rating'.” he asked. Looking up into his baby blue eyes, I answered, ‘Huh?’ “ ‘Stop standing there like a moron and tell me your IQ.’ “Starting toward the door, I cried, ‘-5’.” “Why, that’s the rating of an idiot’, a horrified voice yowied. “Drawing myself up to 5’5", 1‘ turned and. proudly answered, "l‘hen I have a right to be a moron!” HIS electrical mouth at Bell Telephone Laboratories in putting a new telephone to one of its final tcets.
