Tower Now Up First WKAR-TV Programs Planned For Telecasting Soon After January 1, 1954 resources will third the population of Michigan. Plans are underway to present programs in nearly every area of the college's many fields. Some of the programs from its include innumerable drama, literature, language, biology, eco nomics, agriculture and farm service programs. M.S.C. sports events will be telecast, as well as programs for pre school and in-school children, special adult education courses, and public serv ice events of local, state and national importance. NEW studios are now under con struction and will be ready for use when the station goes on the air. Studios will be located in the reno vated quonset structures on Kalamazoo road between Birch and Harrison road. Three large studios, their control rooms, a master control room, complete film pro jection, recording and editing facilities, and scenery construction area will be housed in the new TV operations center. A 31-foot mobile unit will also be used for "on-the-spot" telecasts of events out side the studios. From the TV camera, the picture will be beamed to the powerful transmitter located at Okemos, four miles from East Lansing. Here the weak picture-sound signal from the studios will be picked up and amplified by the transmitter, and forced to the top of the 1,000-foot tower where it enters the 34-foot television antenna. This electronic radiator will then throw off the picture-sound energy into the surrounding atmosphere. HOMES equipped with an Ultra High Frequency television receiver will then be able to receive the WKAR- TV program on Channel 60, providing they are within the approximately 65- mile radius of the station's coverage. They may also need to have a UHF antenna installed. For homes now equipped with a VHF receiver, it is possible to convert the receiver with a UHF converter. There are three methods of converting VHF receivers to UHF receivers. Complete details on these methods of conversion at relatively low cost are available from your local TV serviceman.

Hunter, Director of Television Development, check construction progress of the 1034- foot television tower and antenna as it goes up. One of the tallest structures of its type, the 34-foot antenna is atop a 1000-foot tower and will beam the M.S.C. television signal on Channel 60 to an approximate 65-mile radius. The drawing, below left, shows comparison of the WKAR-TV tower with the Chrys ler building, the Eiffel Tower in Paris and the Washington Monument. While no definite date has been set for beginning of telecasting activities, station officials are hopeful that the new educational TV station will be on the air sometime in January, 1954.

The Board appointed Dr. Clifford G. Menzies director of Olin Memorial Hos pital to replace Dr. Charles F. Holland who retired. Dr. Menzies is a graduate of McGill University at Montreal, Can ada, and has been practicing medicine at Iron Mountain, Mich., since 1933. Grants Total $117,155.56 for A quarter-million-dollar project construction and relocation of farm build ings was also approved by the Board. Four barns on the college farm will be moved and a new seed laboratory will be constructed. Funds for the project were provided during the 1953 session of the state legislature. Research Programs Sponsored Grants and gifts totaling $117,155.56 were accepted for M.S.C. by the govern ing body of the college. Included in these grants were an $8,807 grant from the U. S. atomic energy commission for re search in agricultural chemistry; and an $8,285 grant, also from the AEC, for research in physiology. The U. S. office of naval research renewed its agreement and its grant of $8,346.66 for research in the department of mathematics. Other grants and gifts were accepted from the U. S.

Not in cluded in the new figures are the enroll ment for short courses. Fall term registration included 9,509 men and 4,910 women—a gain of 234 men and 243 women. Although figures are not available on registration by classes, there are 4,429 new students on campus, including 2,631 men and 1,798 women enrolled for the first time. Enrollment of World War II veterans under the G.I. bill has dropped to 636, compared with 1,148 a year ago. But there is a total of 628 Korean veterans attending classes under provision of Korean Bill 550, a new measure since the Fall term of last year. Band Arrives Early More than half of the students en rolled this year are housed on the cam pus. The first unit of the new $13,500,000 men's dormitory building has been occu pied. This unit, Butterfield Hall, is locat ed on the corner of Michigan Avenue and Harrison Road. This multi-unit housing area is being constructed on a self- liquidating basis at no public expense. Early bird on the campus this Fall was the marching band. Arriving a week ahead of the main student body, the 120- man band moved onto its practice field to polish its intricate marching formations for its first appearance at the Minnesota- State game at Minneapolis Oct. 3.

'Business Week' Cites Alum in 8-Page Story "Nursemaid Two Thousand Miles of Pipeline." That's the title of a report on the activities of Mark V. Burlingame, class of the Top Jobs section of Business Week for July 11. '26, in As the operations vice-president of four associated natural gas pipeline sys tems serving the Chicago area, Mr. Burlingame trav els thousands of miles each month "to keep an eye on the far flung parts of his pipe line system." Burlingame The outstanding alum spends 50 per cent of his time traveling in the middle and southern part of central United States. He supervises some 1,500 employees and in the past three years has directed about $190-million worth of construction, the 1,400-mile including Texas-Illinois pipeline. Planning as far as 20 years ahead for future developments of the four con cerns also falls on Mr. Burlingame's shoulders. From an exploration party in Venezuela to a field supervisor for a gas producing and transporting concern in Michigan, all of Burlingame's business life has been spent in the oil and gas industry. HANNAH RETURNS: Dr. John A. Hannah, assistant secretary of defense and president of M.S.C., returned from an inspection tour of Korea early in September. He reported that morale of American troops there is excellent. On the return trip to Washington, Dr. Hannah's plane stopped in Lansing. Prof Debunks Nazi Movement in Germany Dr. G. M. Gilbert, associate professor of psychology, has written a series of articles for a German magazine to coun teract the neo-Nazi movement in Ger many. The M.S.C. professor was prison psy chologist at Nuremberg during the war crime trials in 1945-46 and is the author of a best-seller, Nuremburg Diary. He is counter-attacking a group of articles written by Hans Fritzsche who was assis tant to Germany's wartime propaganda minister, Dr. Paul Joseph Goebbels. Three Scholarships Set For Hotel Management Three new scholarships were estab lished in M.S.C.'s hotel management course, it was announced in September following the annual convention of the Michigan Hotel association on campus. A four-year scholarship for a male in hotel resident of Michigan enrolled management was provided and a $500 grant was created for a woman student. A second Albert Pick hotel grant of $200 was also announced. Fritzsche now paints a glamorous pic ture, of the Nazi regime under Hitler. But in his debunking articles, Dr. Gil bert points out that Fritzsche himself had denounced Herman Goering at the Nuremburg trials as a "cold-blooded rhinocerous who has disgraced Germany with his brutality." Goering was the number two Nazi and Hitler's first lieutenant. corruption and By reminding Germans of actual facts, Dr. Gilbert has done much to prevent neo-Nazi propoganda from being used effectively in post-war Germany. Freshman Named Future Farmers President David Boyne, 19, M.S.C. freshman in the School of Agriculture, was named national president of the Future Farmers of America in Kansas City in late Oc tober. Boyne, who farms in partnership with his father, Neil C. Boyne, near Mar- lette, Mich., has been president of the Michigan FFA organization. During the past summer he was in Europe as an exchange student. 4 CHORAL CLINIC: Pitch pipes echoed through Yankee Springs recreation area in September as the 60-voice M.S.C. men's glee club went through a week- long practice session. The equivalent of two terms rehearsals, the clinic prepared the group for extensive concert tours this fall and winter. 'Branch Factories May Aid Foreign Economies just returned Dr. Richard W.

Classes like this one are part of the University of the Ryukyus, sponsored by M.S.C. M SC experience University at Vital Helping Ryukyus U. S. Outpost The University of the Ryukyus, a young education center at America's "Western Gibraltar" in the East China sea, has been adopted for the third con secutive year by M.S.C. The institution was established in May, 1950, on the island of Okinawa, battleground of some of World War IPs heaviest fighting and today's most distant U. S. outpost in the shadow of Communist China. Papers for the "adoption" have been the U. S. Department of renewed by the Army and M.S.C.

Michigan State was selected by the A.C.E. to carry out the program financed by federal funds. During the adoption period by M.S.C, the Ryukyuan enrollment has grown from 500 to 1,250 with 80 per cent of today's students studying to be teachers. Several buildings have been constructed living to meet critical classroom and quarter needs. A student can be maintained for a full year for $100. "The interest and indus try of the students is unbelievable to an American teacher," Professor Guy Fox said after a year at the university. Cancer Study Progresses Significant findings that may help lead to a means of controlling cancer have been made by an M.S.C. research team. Dr. Alfred Novak, associate professor of natural science, is in charge of the research project that has been spanning the past two years in a study of the "building blocks" of animal life. Surgeon General's office of the U. S. Public Health Service is the sponsor. The major structural material of body tissues is protein, Dr. Novak explains. the protein molecule are Making up "building blocks," smaller units, or called amino acids. Human building blocks are constantly being replaced and by "marking" these blocks with radioactive material, their turn-over can be studied with the help of a Geiger counter, Dr. Novak said. "If some agent can be found that would slow up the process of amino acids building up cancerous tissue a means of controlling cancer would be at hand." 5 BUKKK-KKK-KKKH!—It's mighty cold, hard work, but a lot of tun, too. That's the opinion of this horn player and his 119 buddies in the Spartan march ing band. Every week band members practice approximately eight hours on their own practice field adjoining the Music building for a six and a half to ten- minute game appearance. AFFAIRS OF STATE By DICK GOODROW Biography of Sen. Lodge Written by History Prof An M.S.C. professor is author of a new biography of Henry Cabot Lodge, for mer U.S. Senator from Massachusetts. Dr. John A. Garraty, assistant pro fessor of history, is the first biographer allowed to use material from the Lodge family archives, and his book, Henry Cabot Lodge, A Biography, contains foot notes by Henry Cabot Lodge Jr., grand son of the biography's subject, and U.S. ambassador to the U.N. According to a review in the New York Times Book Review, "this is probably the last life of the acid, stubborn and haughty Senator." But the Lodge book is not the last literary product of the M.S.C. professor. He is author of an article, "The Human Element in Biography," to appear in a forthcoming issue of the Saturday Re view. He is also working on a book about Biography, The Nature of Biography. Be it Resolved . . . U.S. Representative Kit Clardy (R.— E. Lansing) has introduced a resolution in the U.S. House of Representatives re questing "recognition of the one hun dredth anniversary of the founding of Michigan State College."

Two Art Professors Win National Recognition The M.S.C. art department received national recognition again when two pro fessors were cited for their professional achievements. Dr. Martin S. Soria, assistant pro fessor of art, has been selected as one of the outstanding authorities to con tribute material for a 48-volume history of art and architecture. He is an author ity on South American art. Miss Kathrine Winckler, assistant pro fessor of art, has been awarded a third prize and an honorable mention in the 26th annual national arts and crafts competition of the Los Angeles County Fair Association, Pomona, Calif. Her entries were the enameled metal in ceramics division. 6 STUDENT-LEGISLATOR: State Rep. G. W. Graves (R—Alpena) talks with Prof. J. W. Miller of the political science department after Graves received his master's degree in August. Rep. Graves entered M.S.C. in 1948, took time in 1950 to campaign for the legislature, continued studies after his election. An M.S.C professor and Death Claims Four Members of MSC Family three pro fessors emeritus died recently. They were: Dr. Hans L. Leonhardt, 52, pro fessor of political science; M. M. Cory, 71, professor emeritus of electrical engineer ing; Dr. Rufus P. Hibbard, 78, professor emeritus of botany; Dr. Richard de Zeeuw, 73, professor emeritus of botany. Dr. Leonhardt, a vigorous anti-Nazi in per-war days, died Sept. 11 in a Chi cago hospital. A native of Dusseldorf, Germany, he had been a lawyer and judge in Germany. Dr. Leonhardt was on sabbatical leave from M.S.C. Professor Cory, a colorful figure on the campus for 41 years, retired from teaching electrical engineering in 1949. He died of a heart attack on Sept. 26 in a Lansing hospital. Joining the M.S.C. faculty as instructor in botany in 1911, Dr. Hibbard retired in 1940 as professor emeritus. In 1952, Dr. Hibbard was president of the Ameri can Society of Plant Physiologists. He died Aug. 26. The father of two professors, Dr. de Zeeuw came to M.S.C in 1909 as an instructor in botany. He retired as emeri tus professor in 1945. His death occurred Sept. 13. One of his sons is now teaching at Michigan State College. 'Accident' Leads to Discovery of New Dyes in an M.S.C Synthetic indigo dyes developed from that was started by an acci research dent laboratory, were announced by Dr. C C DeWitt, director of the Michigan State engineering ex periment station. The development was made public at a September meeting of the American Chemical Society in Chi cago. synthetic Six different indigo dies, some of them capable of serving as pig ments in oil based paints and others in water-based paints, were developed by Dr. DeWitt and Associate Professor H. A. Price. The accident occurred in 1947 when a cloth was used to mop up some dye which had spilled onto the floor. After close examination, it was discovered that the substance increased the water repellency of wool 60 times and that of cotton 12 times. The potential uses of the new dyes in that clude: coloring of various cloths couldn't be colored in the past; and the coloring of materials and surfaces nor mally colored with oil or water-based paints. ALL FOR ONE . . . Four brothers are enrolled together this Fall at M.S.C. They are, 1. to r., Bill, Jerry, Jim and Ken Rooker, Saginaw. All expert horse men, the brothers are taking veterinary medicine or animal husbandry. They have also established outstanding records in 4-H club work with livestock. MSC Faculty Achievements DR. WALTER ADAMS, associate pro fessor of economics, has been appointed by Attorney General Herbert Brownell to President Eisenhower's national com mittee to study anti-trust laws. At 31, Dr. Adams is the youngest member of the committee which includes Bernard Baruch, former Supreme Court Justice Owen J. Roberts, and John W. Davis, in Democratic candidate for President 1924. its The Sportsman's Club of America has presented top award "for distin guished achievement fishing in sports to DR. PAUL A. and conservation," HERBERT, director of conservation. The recognition was based in part on success of stream initiated improvement work 20 years ago under Dr. Herbert's direc tion at the W. K. Kellogg forest at Battle Creek. What is the policeman's part in solving the problem of alcoholism ? ROBERT H. SCOTT, associate professor of police ad ministration, is trying to provide some answers for policemen. With the help of fellow instructors, students, and a $2,000 grant from the state board of alcoholism, Scott will consult with police officials from representative Michigan cities about the problem.

Press Box Report on SPARTAN SPORTS By FRED STABLEY and TED EMERY representative to the Western Confer ence, a very substantial improvement of prospects for removal from probation have developed. In fact, barring unex pected complications, it is now considered likely that the probation will be termin ated at the regular December meeting of the conference in Chicago. this optimism The reason for is a statement from Conference Commission er Kenneth L. (Tug) Wilson on Sept. 18 in which he reported finding " 'substan tial progress' toward the discharge of the probationary status imposed upon Michigan State College." that Wilson expressed "complete satisfac tion" with the cooperation he had re ceived in examining operations of various Michigan State alumni groups, other than the Spartan Foundation. He further ex pressed "great pleasure" in measures taken by Michigan State to insure com pliance with conference financial aid and other "errors of omission" in past con ference relations, and specifically a con cession the Spartan Foundation "was an organization, which, had we been more diligent, could have been and should have been re-directed in its efforts so that no question could have been raised regarding the propriety of its activities." As evidences of "increased diligence," Wilson referred in his release to reports from Dean Harden of a firm directive to Michigan State's athletic personnel, en dorsed by the college president, that any deviation by one of them from confer ence rules would be grounds for removal, and an extensive educational program among alumni and others designed to make clear the distinctions, under con ference rules, between proper and im proper means of assisting athletes. the press Wilson concluded release with the statement that he would make the a full report on State's status at annual meeting of the Big Ten, Dec. 9-12. their college days, but their through defensive ability was a moot question. Billy Wells, LeRoy Bolden, Evan Slonac and Tom Yewcic proved equal to the effort, however, and gave excellent per formances in the early games. Second, was the masterful way Coach Biggie Munn and his corps of assistants switched from the two-platoon play, made rapid readjustments of personnel and strategy. Rose Bowl? By mid-season, with Ohio State and Michigan still to be played and with the 6-0 defeat by Purdue on the record, it was far too early to start thinking of the Rose Bowl, at Pasadena. But the possi bility that it might be State still loomed on the far horizon. Neither Munn nor his players could be coaxed into any comment on Rose Bowl prospects, a healthy sign of application to the job the games one at a at hand—playing time and letting take care the future of itself. Hopes High for Lift of Big Ten Probation A silver lining is beginning to peep the dark cloud of Michigan through State's Big Ten probation. Since the September issue of The Record, in which was reported the ener getic steps being taken by Dean Edgar L. Harden in his new capacity of faculty Munn & Co. Take 'Em Just One at a Time The Spartan football team got off to a flying start in Big Ten play, winning its first three conference tests in fine style over Iowa, Minnesota and Indiana. Then came the 6-0 loss to the Purdue Boilermakers snapping State's 28-game winning streak. But taken together, the first four Big Ten games were a heartening beginning after four years of waiting between ac ceptance as a Big Ten member and the first football kickoff. Against Iowa in the inaugural, State fought off the challenge of an unusually tough and aggressive Hawkeye team to win 21-7, permitting Old Master Biggie Munn to whip pupil Forest Evashevski, the Hawk coach, in their first meeting. Biggie's Homecoming A highly touted Minnesota team was thoroughly deflated by a 21-0 count. It was Biggie's homecoming to Minneapolis, his old home town, as coach of his own the boys did him Big Ten team, and proud. Especially outstanding was the job the Spartan defenders—led by their brilliant captain and end, Don Dohoney— did on Paul Giel, the fabled Gopher half back. Giel had perhaps his worst day in in 20 college, gaining carries, and down with him went the Gophers. Little LeRoy Bolden, the great 160-pound Spartan left halfback, scored three touchdowns and gained 145 yards against Minnesota. just 23 yards Texas Christian proved a surprising test to the "experts," who anticipated a Spartan runaway. Their enthusiasm ac tually helped prime the Texans for a major effort. A three-touchdown rally in the final quarter was needed to attain a 26-19 State victory, one of the most thrilling in the long win string. Several things stood out clearly Indiana put on a strong first half effort but finally succumbed 47-18 to the super the Spartans. ior speed and savvy of in the early action.

(left to Hoopsters Prepare for Tough Time in Big Ten A stronger bench, greater height and increased speed are expected to be the solid points of the 1953-54 edition of the Michigan State basketball team set to open its fourth season under the tute lage of Peter F. (Pete) Newell on Dec. 5 against Creighton University of Omaha at East Lansing. Facing a 22-game schedule that in cludes 14 contests in the Western Con ference, the team will appear all the way from East Lansing to the West Coast and return. The West Coast trip includes games at Los Angeles with Southern California and U.C.L.A. Three Juniors Show Improvement Improvement shown by three juniors— Al Ferrari, forward, Bob Armstrong, cen ter, and Bob Devenny, guard—may prove the key to Spartan success this year. individual season Ferrari cracked the the scoring mark, although he started season as a reserve. Armstrong took the center spot vacated by Bob over Carey, and although possessing limited experience provided the team with some fine offensive and defensive rebounding.

Ten schedule, but showed good scoring ability in a number of games. Some question marks still remain, how ever, caused in part by the moving of two-year regular at forward, Keith a Stackhouse, to a guard spot. Although he has always played forward, the move was made to better utilize the team per sonnel and provide Stackhouse with an opportunity to work his specialty—out side shooting. Strength at Center With Armstrong showing the desired improvement at center, and backed up at that spot by sophomore Duane Peter son and junior Bob McCullough, Coach Newell has moved DeNeal Hartman back to forward where he joins Ferrari and newcomers Duane Olson and Julius Mc is Coy. Olson, at 6-5, is quick and strong around the the basket and McCoy quickest lad on the club, with the ability to increase the scoring potential above that of prior years.
