BURNS RESIGNS FROM PROSECUTOR'S OFFICE
George A. Burns, Law, '14, has
resigned as special assistant district
attorney of Milwaukee county and
chief prosecutor
in major criminal
cases in the muni-
cipal court, effec-
tive Jan. 1. He
will resume pri-
vate practice.
"M y relations
with this office
have been pleas-
ant," Mr. Burns
said,	"and the
work	has been
interesting. But I
find that to con-
tinue	I must
either neglect my
private practice or
neglect the inter-
ests of the county.
Therefore, I am
forced	to resume
my private practice which is more
interesting to me."
Dyring the past year Mr. Burns
has tried sixty jury cases in municipal
court. These included every impor-
tant trial with the exception of that
of John Davenport, who was charged
with robbing a Milwaukee bank.
Mr. Burns received his bachelor of
of law degree from the Law School.
He received a bachelor of arts degree
from Marquette in 1908 and a master
of arts degree in 1914.

TOTAL SUN ECLIPSE NOT VISIBLE HERE
In prognosticating the sky for January, the Rev. John B.' Kremer, S.J., head of the department of physics at Marquette university, pointed out that on Jan. 14 there will be a total eclipse of the sun.
The maximum duration of the eclipse will be 4 minutes and 11 seconds, according to the Marquette astronomer. It will be at sunrise.
Will Not Get Full Benefit
"Because the path of the moon's shadow begins in East Africa," said Father Kremer, "and then sweeps across the islands of Sumatra, Borneo and Mindanao, and ends in the Pacific, we will not get the full effects of the phenomenon."
About the middle of January, Sirius, the brightest of all stars, will rise about 6 o'clock in the evening in the southeast, directly below; the constellation of Orion. Orion is one of the two most radient groups in the firmament.
"Sirius belongs to the constellation of Canis Major or 'Great Dog,' and is known as the 'dog star,' " said Father Kremer. "It is this star which gives its name to the dog day of summer because by the end of June Sirius is directly south of the sun, opposite the place it is now.
Fifty-two Billion Miles Distant
"This location is explained by the fact that the sidereal day is about four minutes shorter than the solar day."
"This dog star," said Father Kremer, "is one of the nearest stars to the earth, being only 52,000,000,000 miles distant. Its light waves require eight and eight-tenths years to reach the earth, traveling at the average speed of light, 186,000 miles per second."
Venus, which during the month of December increased in vividness, is still visible in the western evening . Its apparent motion from now

DR. FEDERSPIEL LEAVES FOR WESTERN TALKS
Dr. M. N. Federspiel, professor of Oral Surgery at the Marquette University Dental school, leaves for California this week to lecture before dental societies in various cities of that state oh the treatment of diseases and malformations of the teeth, iaws and face.
Dr. Federspiel has developed a new method for- the saving of pulpless teeth which in the past were considered detrimental to the patient's health. The filling of the root canals, as it was done in the past, was considered by dental scientists as speculative, and the prognosis and the outcome were considered unfavorable because so many pulpless teeth developed abscesses at the root ends. Dr. Federspiel's operation for saving pulpless teeth has frequently been demonstrated in his clinics at the Marquette University Dental school. This operation is considered of great importance to dentists who have resorted to the extraction of all pulpless teeth in order to eradicate dental infection.
In the February meeting of the Marquette University Dental alumni, which will be held in Milwaukee, Dr. Federspiel will present a symposium with leaders in the dental profession from other cities, in which the operation which is claimed to be a forward step in saving teeth which

By GEORGE W. WOLPERT

"Prim for the Prom" is the slogan submitted by Victor M. Hamm, Senior in the College of Liberal Arts, which was chosen by the judges as the one to advertise the Prom. Catharine Davy, Junior in the College of Journalism, was given second honors for her slogan, "The Prom to Remember." First award was a ticket to the Formal dance; second prize, a ticket to the Informal, Feb. 12, .at the Arcadia.
The judges of the contest were Profs. William Lamers, Rufus Rauch, and J. W. McDonald.
McGavick Sets Pace Selections were made from a large number of slogans received by the contest editor of the Tribune during the Christmas recess. Many good entries were in the lot, but due to their length,-the rule of the contest was that the slogan be not more than five words in length,-were ruled out.
Mr. McGavick, the Prom chairman, has taken up the slogan and started to "Prim for the Prom." One of the Grand avenue men's shops ins assisted him, supplying many of the necessary furnishings.
