Dr. Jiraie Sarian, Syrian evangelist, recently advised members of the Inter-varsity Christian Fellowship to be aggressive but not boastful in their belief.
Dr. Sarian gave a brief history of Christian missionary work of the past and present and contrasted it with the efforts of the Moslem world.
"Islam was able to outspit Christianity in those early days because of its strong emphasis on the individual."
In this country on a medical fellowship, Dr. Sarlan is studying at the University of Kansas medical center in Kansas City. He is a graduate of the American university in Beirut, Syria and studied in Lausanne, Switzerland where he helped to found an Inter-varsity charter.

Maxine Stetzler Gives Graduate Recital; Plays Nine Pleasing Piano Selections
Bv ANN ALLEN
"Sonata, Op. 58" (Chopin) was the most brilliant work presented by Maxine Stetzler, pianist, in her graduate recital Sunday in Frank Strong auditorium.
Beauty and variation characterized this sonata. The finale was especially outstanding with its power and the sensitive interpretation given it by Miss Stetzler.
"Capriccio Op. 76, No. 2" (Brahms) was fast and gay. This piece is a series of runs all played with clearness and precision. "Intermezzo Op. 76, No. 3" (Brahms) was melodious with a ripping background of runs.
"Alborado Del Gracioso" (Ravel), a sprightly dancing piece describing the antics of a clown, was presented with a light touch by Miss Stetzler.
The rest of the program included. Choral Prelude, "Awake the Voice Commands" (Bach-Busoni), "Prelude and Fugue in A Minor" (Bach); "Capriccio, Op. 76, No. 1" (Brahms)
"Capiocco, Op. 76, No. 2" (Brahms);
"Intermezzo, Op. 76, No. 3"
(Brahms); "Intermezzo, Op. 76,
No. 4" (Brahms); "Sonata, Op. 58"
(Chopin); "Prelude, Fugue and
Variations" (Franck); "Alborado Del

How Du Pont and studio scientists solved the problem of noisy film
Who'd ever expect to find Du Pont chemists in Hollywood? When motion pictures suddenly started to talk, a whole new series of perplexing scientific problems was born, not the least of which was "noisy" film.
As you know, sound is usually recorded directly on film. If you hold a strip of motion picture film to the light, the sound track is seen as a narrow band of irregular lines. A light ray passing through the moving sound track falls on a photocell with rapid interruptions or changes in intensity. The photocell converts these interruptions into electrical impulses which, amplified, reach the theater audience as voice and music.
If the film has a coarse grain structure, it tends to give lines that are not sharp and uniform in density. Such irregularities interrupt the light ray—come out as distracting noise.
What could be done about it? Du Pont scientists of the Photo Products Department started a program of research, in cooperation with technical experts from the studios in Hollywood. They made and tested scores of film coatings. Finally there were developed films of exceedingly fine grain structures.
M-G-M and Paramount were among the first to use the new type Du Pont films. The development was heralded by the press as "another milestone in the technical progress of the industry," and in 1943 Du Pont

received an Academy Award of Merit for its achievement. Now the use of fine grain films is practically universal in Hollywood. Actors, actresses speak their lines, with no technical restrictions to cramp their artistry.

The Photo Products Department, however, is just one of ten Du Pont manufacturing departments, all of which engage in continuous research. Operated much like separate companies, each holds challenging opportunities for young, college-trained chemists, engineers and physicists. Du Pont not only tries to select young men and women of promise, but makes a conscientious effort to help each one develop as rapidly as possible. Whatever your interests, you will find here the cooperation and friendly interest you need to do your best. As a member of a small, congenial working team, your ability can be seen, recognized and rewarded.
