Engineers' Trio.
P'rof. Cooley was interviewed thcis
afternooic n i regard to licecisuial tript
which a part of the engineerincg stu-
deissmake during the spring recess.
'theouhi the route is not as yet de-
cided upcon, the following facts weere
obtaiined. Theere are twvo trips uiuder
consideration. First, thee usual trip
to Cleveland and Pittsburg. This is
a very valuable trip, even to thiose
who have been there once. The ex-
penses are comparatively small.
Leaving Ann Arbor the Friday morn-
ing before thee spring recess and re-
turning a week frons thee following
Sunday, the expenses, including
some extras, are about $35. The
otheer trip is neore extended, and
takes in a new list of places, Toledo,
Colunebus, H'anmiltoni, Cincinnati,
theen to Fort Wayne and Southe Bend,
Indiana, from thiese places to Joliet,
Chicago, M~ilwaukee, Grand lHaven
and Grand Rapids. The expenses
of the tatter trip swould probably be
front $40 to $50i. In some respects
it would be more pleasant, and on
account of the variety of things to
be seen, perhaps, more profitable.
Those who are fortunate enought to
be able to go on the trip, will be
assured of plenty to see and hear,
whichever route is taken.
