Furthermore, he shows organisms too small to be seen by the unaided eye, through the microscopic attachments he has made.
New channels for scientific research are declared possible as a result of Mr.蒲利bursky's invention, in which he can discover the cause of cancer by the use of a dual microscope that enables the operator to photograph living and dead cells.
"Academically, I am not a botanist," Mr. Pillibray explains, "but alus a lifetime of work in studying lower growths through the notion of 'tropical soil,' many things about them that don't appear in textbooks. Discoveries in autumn have come as by-products of their habitats as well established and regular as our own. They have definite desires and aversion and exercise amazing ingenuity in bringing about their life purpose—perpetuation of nature."

First of Mid-Week Dances Will Be Held Tomorrow in Union
Parties Continued If Enough Students Attend; Agnew Band to Play
Everyone at the University is invited to attend the first all-University commencement of college, and will be best tomorrow from 7 to 8 p.m., at the Memorial Union building under the aisles of the Union office. The students are supposed to solutely free, and, in case the student body responds, will be the first of its kind, bringing the remainder of the semester.
As in the case of other University parties, the dances will be held upstairs and the orchestra will provide the music for the first dance. The committee hopes to use all the other Hill orchestras in rotation at subsequent rehearsals.
According to William Howe, c31, chairman of the student committee managing the dances, whether or not a student choir will be featured will depend upon the manner in which the students support them and co-operate with the committee by attending night's events. Parties of this nature play a prominent part in the social life at other universities and they can become a resource here only if well attended.
Howe also stressed the all University nature of the dances. Everyone on the hill is urged to be present, and unaccompanied by students. The University operating committee is going to considerable expense to finance the project, and they can continue to do so only if the parties are well supported and carry a university
If these dances are sufficiently popular during the remainder of the year, it is possible that next year weekly tea dances will be substituted for them, or that tea dances will be held in addition to the regular Wednesday.
The primary purpose of this imi-
vation, according to the committee,
to furnish authorized mid-weekly or
weekly reports which have been lackin
in the past.
