We propose to measure the star forming galaxy SHOC 391 using the MIPS Spectral Energy Distribution (SED) mode. SHOC 391 is one of only three star forming galaxies known to have an SED peak in the mid infrared (MIR) rather than the far infrared (FIR). This behavior may result from an early stage in starburst evolution where very hot stars are still embedded in optically thick (in the near infrared) dust clouds. Measurements of the FIR behavior can expand on this hypothesis. The precise position of that peak and the strength of the FIR emission lines is best measured using the MIPS SED mode. We have measured one of these galaxies (Haro 11) in this mode, while another (SBS 0335-052) is far too faint. Thus, SHOC 391 is the only known star-forming galaxy with a short-wavelength infrared peak which has not been yet still can be measured using Spitzer's MIPS SED mode.
