Snooping Around News and Views from other colleges
An arrangement unique in interstate educational arrangements has been made through which graduates of the two-year medical school at West Virginia University will complete their four-year course at the University of Virginia. The two states share the cost and faculty members will be interchangable. The arrangements will exist for the duration of the war.
With an assortment of scrap in size from the 26-ton locomotive "Iowa," to coathangers, with old cast iron pipe fittings, a small concrete mixer, and refrigerator coils as part of the pile, a total of 165 tons of scrap metal has been gathered by Iowa State College, since the war began.
Already 77 tons of scrap metal have been sent from the campus and the rest is awaiting shipment. The metal was contributed by students and the college and collected by Alpha Phi Omega, student service fraternity, and the Buildings and Grounds department.
Other contributions were old plows cultivators, steel cutter bars, and steel plates.
The mining department of the senior class at New Mexico School of Mines took its annual tour of the mines and smelters of the Southwest last weekend. The trip is usually two weeks in length, but due to war conditions was abbreviated to three days.
"Time and Again," boasting 14 varied song numbers was presented as one of the Triangle shows at Princeton University.
The opening was "Here We Are." recounting the obstacles opposing the production of this year's show, ended with prophecies in the finale number, "Next Year."
Some of the other songs were "As I Remember You," "Thank God They're Not Rationing You," and
Holtzclaw Speaks on Part Of Photography in War
Emphasizing the war-time importance of films and photographic equipment, Henry Holtzelaw, chemistry instructor, told members of the Chemistry club at their weekly meeting yesterday "that at the beginning of 1942 more than half of the Eastman plant's American output of photographic goods was being used for military purposes or for industrial and commercial purposes essential to the war effort."
Holtzcelaw explained the part that the Eastman Kodak company was taking in the war effort. Using this company as a basis for his lecture, Holtzclaw told how photography fills an important war need as is shown in mapping terrain. He said that "in order to escape anti-aircraft fire, the war-time mapping must be conducted at high altitudes. Methods of penetrating the intervening haze is of vital importance and as the altitude of the photograph mounts likewise do the difficulties."
Flash Bombs Helpful
Until recently, Holtzclaw reported, night photography has presented many difficult problems, until flash bombs were developed in flying darkrooms and dropped at headquarters. He asserted that "aerial photographers drop negatives at headquarters for rapid interpretation if developing facilities are not available.
"Here I Sit With The Physically Unfit." Most of the musical score was written by Princeton students.
South Dakota University ROTC men collected more than 45 tons of scrap metal in the city of Vermillion in a drive which closed last week.
The total was more than 10 tmes as much as was gathered in the two previous scrap drives in the city. The ROTC men and "physical fitness" men dug the scrap out of backyards, and lugged it out of basements, atties, and storerooms of Vermillion residents.
The funds realized from the sale of the scrap will be used by the Clay County Salvage committee to furnish comfort for Clay county men in the armed forces.
X-Ray inspection is another great use of Eastman products in locating hidden internal flaws in shipbuilding plants and assemblies in aircraft industries. Photographic performance records are used to study precisely how a wing vibrates, a bullet flies, or a tank bearing wears, Holtczlaw concluded.
The meeting was held in room 201 of Bailey Chemistry laboratory.
The airgraph, commonly known as V-Mail, is but another adoption of photography playing a significant role in the war effort, the instructor pointed out. "This is a system of photographing letters destined for air mail across seas, resulting in a 99 per cent saving in transit space. Fifteen hundred letters are carried on a seven and one-half ounce roll, the speaker commented. Study By X-Half

International Club To Discuss India
H. B. Chubb, associate professor of political science and faculty sponsor of the International Relations Club, announced that a meeting will be held at 7:30 p.m. Thursday, in the Memorial Union building. The members will discuss the situation in India, and officers for the year will be elected.
The International Relations Club is similar to other organizations in universities throughout the country, sponsored by the Carnegie Endowment for the purpose of discussing current problems in international affairs.

GREEK HOUSES---

There have been numerous questions concerning the application of federal rent control to sorority and fraternity houses, since they are connected with an educational institution. Charles F. Reed, director of the Topeka-Lawrence area, explained, however, that houses owned and operated by the fraternal organization are not exempt as "rooms of educational institutions."

W. Jacobson, design engineer of the
Gulf Research Laboratories. of Pittsburgh.
Ambrosius is also scheduled to present a paper before the 63rd annual meeting of the American Society of Mechanical Engineers in New York City, Nov. 30 to Dec. 4. Here he will also attend a meeting of the committee on fluid meters of which he is a member, and present the paper, which is of triple authorship, on "The Results of Tests on Volumeters for Liquid Hydrocarbons." The paper was written in collaboration with Jacobson, and R. J. S. Piggot, chief engineer of Gulf Research Laboratories.
Ambrosius began his research on fluid meters for the petroleum industry at the University of Oklahoma before he came to the University.
