Poultry Course
Slated June 2
The annual poultry short

three weeks beginning June 2,
according to E. D. Parnell of
the poultry department.
Those enrolled in the short course
may qualify as flock selecting
agents and pullorum testing agents
for chicken flocks either the first

lecting and blood-collecting agents
may qualify the third week, Par
nell explained. Students enrolled
for three weeks may earn college
credit while they qualify for a li

ens and turkeys.
A special Visitor’s Day program

attendance was well over 100, with
60 agents qualifying. All selecting
and testing agents for hatcheries
working under the national poul
try and turkey improvement plans
are trained in schools of this type,
said Parnell.

MIRROR OF THE PAST; by K.
Zilliacus, M. P.
One of the books written to pro
mote the cause of the Labor Party
and instrumental in its victory at
last year’s general election elec
tion, “Mirror of the Past”, survives
in triumph the purpose for which
it was was written. The political
history of the world from 1910
through 1930 is the “past” of the
title, and the presentation is in
tended to be a warning.
A great deal of the goings on
diplomatically during the period
preceding World War 1 are now
well known and what happened to
the League of Nations, but Mr.
Zilliacus gives a most successfully
co-ordinated story of that period.
“History as such does not actually
repeat itself but plays variations
on various themes”—of which ge
ography is one—and the import-

ASSIZE OF ARMS; by Brig. Gen.
J. H. Morgan
This is a book which historians
will use as source material, but
the general reader will find it eas
ier going than the footnotes indi
cate, and the subject is one of par
amount importance to everyone.
“Assize of Arms” is the result
of General Morgan’s observations
of the German Army’s re-arma
ment (at first stealthily and then
openly) after the last World War.
He is concerned that there be no
third attempt. When the victors in
World War II are still wrangling
inconclusively with the problem
of what to do with defeated Ger
many, General Morgan’s book
books come as a timely warning.
As British War Crimes Investi
gator, Prisoner of War Commis
sioner^ and later as Depty Adju
tant-general, he perceived from
the beginning what the German
army was doing, and he has docu
mented his book with facts never
before published.
THE WESTWARD CROSSINGS;
by Jeannette Mir sky
Miss Mirsky may have here a
hackneyed theme, but she puts it
in a fresh setting and at a new
angle with the emphasis on the
personalities of the explorers.
The great westward crossings, ac
cording to Miss Mirsky, were three:
those of Balbo, of MacKenzie, and
of Lewis and Clark. These men
of vigorous imagination and great
vision represent the adventurers
of three nations, Spain, Britain, and
the United States. They also rep
resent the ideals and methods of
exploration in three different
centuries.
Readers will find novelty in this
spirited history of the eminent
Spaniard who discovered the Pac
ific and built ships to sail on it,
only to be cruely put to death by
a jealous rival. Here also is the
fascinating story of the tireless
Scot who followed the river which
now bears his name to the Arctic.
You may be familiar with the great
expedition of Lewis and Clark, but
Miss Mirsky tells this grand tale
much better and with more color
and feeling than your history text
book. The author tends to empha
size narrative rather than analysis
and exhibits a talent for rapid,
pictorial reconstruction of scenes
and events.
“Inaudible Sound’
Measures Material
Thickness, Flaws
Thickness of materials may be
measured and internal flaws de
tected by “inaudible sound,” ac
cording to H. E. Van Valkenburg
of the General Electric Company’s
General Engineering and Consult
ing Laboratory.
Ultrasonic vibrations ranging
“at least 14 octaves” beyond audi
bility by the human ear have been
produced and techniques have been
developed to direct them into
beams, and to detect the beams re
ceived at another point, Mr. Van
Valkenburg declared in a G-E
Science Forum address at Schenec
tady, New York.
“Ultrasonic signals can be ‘seen’
through solids or liquids—mater
ials which are partially or totally
opaque to light,” he explained.
