One faction claimed that they had repeatedly asked the vice-president to call the election for some day this week and that she esaded them by saying that she hadn't as yet decided what day she would call the meeting. The other faction claimed that it was her right to call the meeting for elec- tion when she chose and that she did not have to take anyone's advice in the matter. The vice-president did not deny, however, that she had had a week's notice to call the meetin for yes- terday, but declared that it was not written. There are two tickets in the fieid. One is backed by those who supported the "all Michigan" ticket at the fresh- man class election last fall, while the other is being supported by nearly ail foreign students and by many Michi- gan men. The contest promises to be close, both sides claiming the victory with equal assurance. Dr. Nancrede Says Good Bye. While Major Nancrede was in the city Thursday he appeared before the senior medical class to say a last fare- well. He said that he had gone to the front from a spirit of loyalty, but also he had another motive, namely, a de- sire to advance science. "There are certain things which can only be learned by experience, and for that reason I have gone. The 'members of the medical faculty, together with the student body, intend to present the major with a horse. A committee has been appointed and sub- scriptions have already been started towards that end. The flag that will float from the $375 flag-pole; recently ordered by the Uni- versity board of regents, is one of the two 40-foot world's fair flags, secured by the Chicago alumniof the University of Michigan at the close of the fair. The lower 60-feet of the pole is to be Another Fruit and Flower Social The ladies of the Fruit and Flower Mission will hold another dance in the gymnasiums Saturday night, May 28. It will be an informal party, as was the May Pole dance, and the proceeds will go to the hospital fund of the society. The success of the May Pole party has encouraged the society to give another, and with dance tickets at only 25 cents a very large audience is expected. Music will be furnished by the U. of M. Band. The proceeds of the May party were used in furnishing the sun room at the University hospital, and proved quite sufficient for the purpose. The funds resulting from the next , dnce will be used in purchasing furri. hings for the nurses' home. The regents have only been able to appropriate money enough for the most necessary furniture. and the Fruit and Flower Mission wish to add a few comborts. Dents Victorious. The third ga.e- of the class series was played at the fair grounds this af- ternoon between the '99 Dents-and A. A. H. S. teams, the former winning 7 to 4. The special feature-of the game was three fights between members of the opposing teams and rooters. "Pat" Murfin, a high school rooter, was struck in the stomach by a foul ball and laid out for a half hour. In the first inning the high schools succeeded in making three runs and held the Dents down till the fifth, when they ran in two scores. The high school then went to pieces without once recovering' themselves. Newhausel, Dent, knocked out a three-bagger, and White, high school, a two-base hit. Innings 12345.76t89 R.H.E.

Word has been received from Chick- amauga Park Ga., where Company A. from Ann Arbor was sent, that the Handicap Meet. All arrangements have been made for the handicap shoot, to be held by the University Gun Club this afternoon at the grounds on S. State st. It will un- doubtedly be a grand success. The committee who'had charge of arranging the handicaps met last night with Capt. Shepherd and decided upon the handi- caps. The scrach man will get 25 shots and the rest of the shooters will vary on up to 35 shots, which is the limit. The committee decided to handicap the men as follows: Flansburg 25 (scratch); McMillan, 26; Lambert, 26; Hutchinon, 26; Oliver, 27; Churchman, 29; Norton, 30; Shepherd, 30; Van Horne, 31; John- son, 31; Hubbard, 31; Raymond, 33; Rice, 24; Whittlesey, 35; Woodrow, 35; Upham, 35. There are seventeen entries so far. It is desired to have as iany more as pousible, and every man in the Uni- versity is requested to come out and enter in the shoot. Any one who en- ters who has not shot before with the club will be put scratch. Guns and ammunition can be obtained at the club house by all who wish, to shoot. There will be four prizes, which -will consist of a certain number of cart- ridges for each. The exact number v.ill depend upon the number of entries, Wisconsin's Troubles. The following editorial is taken from Thursday's issue of the Wisconsin Car- dinal, and would tend to show that Wis- consin is not very enthusiastic over the record her ball team is making for her: As we expected, our baseball team is adhering . to the traditions if the gaie at Wisconsin, and has succeeded in lresng all games played on the trip so far. Judging from the showing of the team in these games, the prcspects of losing one or more of the remaining three games are most excellent. The shtiveng of our ball team this year can be no n.ore disappointing for t'ison- sia s emthusiasts than it is for Chicags and fi'higan.
