Heart Lecture Slated Today
The chemistry of damaged hearts will be discussed by Paul R. Saun-j ders, assistant professor of pharmacology and toxicology, today in 1C7 Science at 4:15 p.m.
•Further work should be done on the nature of the normal heart metabolism. Research, might be conducted by comparing the metabolism of a normal heart with that of a damaged heart of an animal. It would then be possible to know the exact effect of drugs on the heart and proper- treatment could be effeced.” Saunders said.
The lack of large donations to secure expensive experimental equipment has been the greatest obstacle to research work on fhe heart, he added.
In recent years, however. Professor Saunders explained, two new sources of funds have been instituted, the Life Insurance Medical Research fund and the National Heart Institute of the U.S. Public Health service.
In the past, he revealed, there has been very little basic scientific work on the heart. Due to the lack of available funds, research has been limited mostly to the clinical field.
Research in this field is especially important, he explained, as heart disease is still the major cause of death in the U.S.

Gas Company Head to Speak
“The accent on our entire training and educational system has been too long cn ‘how to make a living’ and not on ‘how to live’,” said N. Henry Gellert, president of the 6eattle Gas company, who is scheduled to speak today at 10 a.m. in Bovard auditorium.
“We have for toe long ignored the social skills necessary to keep in balance the mammoth industrial state which we have created,” he continued.
“Students destined eventually to become a part of the management in our complex industrial civilization are without the benefit of sufficient training in social skills either in their homes, the public schools, or advanced educational institutions. and receive none in the technical schools,” Gellert added.
The solution to this problem of renewing the social aspects of education is not up to the industrial leaders alone. Gellert believes, but is the problem of the combined leadership of the nation, working together
In the utility field since 1910, Gellert is nationally recognized for his successful application of the Cottrell process to blast furnaces. He derigned and built the first successful electric blast furnace gas cleaner.
Penny Pitching Champion Is Lowell Larbor

Mr. Trojanality To Show Tonight
The curtain goes up on the musical comedy “Mr. Trojanality” tonight in Bovarc auditorium, marking the climax of two months’ work by student production members.
Ticket sales for the Trojan chest show * topped 1000 yesterday with 800 tickets left to be sold. Although tickets will remain on sale today in front of Bovard and at the ticket office, second floor. Student Union, latest reports indicated an early sellout.
SHERLOCK SENT Last night's dress rehearsal hinted to Director Buck Sherlock that the show will be even better than he had hoped. The 14 songs composed by Bill Mays have been arranged by Gordon Munford, who is under contract to Decca records.
The story revolves about the campus antics of a group electioneering for “Mr. Trojanality.” The ensuing troubles offer plenty of activity for the romantic leads. Dolores Peterson and Gordon Ewing.
SPECTACULAR SCENE One of the most spectacular scenes is the “Election March,” which has the entire cast on stage. Other scenes are divided between the featured characters and 15 coed chorus * girls. Dances for the troupers were originated by Jack Colton. As choreographer, Colton has spent his time during the past weeks in coaching the chorus.
Sure-fire hits predicted by Sherlock include the scene where seven hefty football players sing, “I’ve Got a Good Professor,” and the part where Lee Jone.°, star comedian, gives out with “I Get the Short Side of Love.” Other favorites are“Love Is Everywhere,” and j “Our Dreams.” “Puppy Love” Ls i another potential show-stopper, he i said.
60-DAY WONDER
Planning for the show started ; last November and actual produc-! tion work has been sandwiched i between classes for more than two months.
The show will be the climax to a week-long Trojan chest campaign. With a $900 goal already in sight, members of the cast feel that the hard work has really paid off.
Doors will be open at approximately 7:30 tonight and the show will start at 8:15. Any remaining tickets will be sold at the door.

Faculty support of the Trojan Chest drive has thus far been inadequate, according to Dennis | Murphy, Chest chairman.
With a goal of $1000 set for fac- j ulty contributions, money from this | source reached only $68 yesterday afternoon. Less than 6 per cent of ■ the combined teaching and admin- j istrative force contributed.
Murphy pointed out that the j failure of faculty support could be ; laid to inadequate collections on j the part of the Trojan Chest com- | mittee, but letters making a special appeal for support from the j faculty were sent out by Clinton j A. Neyman, chairman for faculty contributions.
“If each member of the teaching i and administrative staffs would j give $2. his part to help reach the goal would be done,” Murphy said.
Walter E. Terry, faculty adviser j to the Trojan chest, supported Murphy in his appeal to the 94 j per cent who have not made contributions thus far.
“We of the faculty are a part of the community of SC. So let’s help support its charitable work,” Terry said.
Steps axe being taken which will enable the faculty to give full support to the drive. Student collectors will contact each member per-
'■cally {' ' ' cn • week. Con-tr bull j L_:.: : i3 source will j.ntinue lhici’£,ii the week.
DR. ALBERT ZECH and Prof. W. E. Terry show SC faculty how easy it is to contribute to the Trojan Chest. That's Tommy in the middle.
