ident of the association; Miss Nadeau
tennis manager; Miss Hopkins, hock-

SUBSTANTIAL GAIN
IN REGISTRATION
Prof. and M is Zowski, entertained
over 20 Polish students at their res-
idence, Saturday evening. Eleven c
the 13 members of the Polonia Liter-
ary society of 1910-11 were present,
the remainder of the guests being new
students.
The increase in the membership of
the Polonial society is due chiefily to
the efforts of a committee of three
Detroiters which was appointed in
June of this year for the purpose of
conducting a campaign to establish a
Polish educational center at the Uni-
versity of Michigan. The Polish press
of the country supported the move-
ment inaugurated by the committee by
printing a series of circulars ,which
were sent to all the Polish weekly and
daily newspapers.
The officers for the ensuing year
are: Francis Dombrowski, president;
Ladislaus Garsztecki, vice-president;
Adolph Blecki, secretary; Andrew
Sambor, treasurer; and Simon A.
Walkowiak, librarian.

Chinese Club Increases.
ry- Of the 63 Chinese indemnity students
lay that came to America toward the end
aw, of last month, Michigan drew the larg-
>rd est number, 18 of them deciding to
Mr. cast their lot here. This makes a to-
for tal of 51 Chinese students at the uni-
itil versity, over half of whom are sup-
ent ported by the indemnity fund provid-
'. ed for by the Chinese government for
the education of Chinese students
abroad.
ent The Chinese student's Michigan
He club, which was formed five years ago,
en but the existence of which was not
announced until this summer, held
its regular monthly meeting in room
248 of the New Engineering building,
out last evening at 7:00 o'clock. The pri-
to mary purpose of this club is to keep
ere the Chinese students in the state of
oth Michigan in close touch with their
has mother country and with each other,
ng and to promote the general interest.
and welfare of all concerned.
Arrangements for the special train
which is to take Wolverine rooters to
Lansing for the Michigan-M. A. C.
game, have been completed. The train
will leave the Michigan Central sta-
tion at 8:45, and returning will leave
Lansing at 7:30. The railroad fare
is $1.
Of special interest to Michigan stu-
dents is the price of admission to the
game. The general admission fee is
$1 which gives standing room privi-
leges along the side lines. Granid
stand seats between the 30 yard lines
will bring $1.75, while $1.50 will be
charged for all other grand stand
seats.
Director Bartelme was in recent tel-
ephone connection with Coach
Macklin of the Lansing team, and the
latter stated that the Michigan game
was the big gane of the Lansing
schedule and that therefore the M. A.
C. management felt justified in charg-
ing the above named admission price.
He stated that the standing room on
the side lines will accommodate .1,500
people.
Tag Day Proves Big Success.
To enroll every college girl is; the
ambition of the Woman's League par-
tially realized as a result of yester-
day's sale of tags. Nearly 600 women
have already joined the League and it
is hoped that practically all of the re-
maining 200 women in school can be
induced to enroll, before this evening.
"This year's membership campaign
has been unusually successful,' said
Miss DeLano, chairman of the Wom-
en's League membership committee,
when interviewed yesterday afternoon.
"Our enrollment to date is nearly as
large as that of all last year."
University to be Inspected.
Mr. Herbert Dow, of Midland; Mr.
Walter Russell, of Detroit, and Mr.
Mauch of Hillsdale College, compris-
ing the State Board of Visitors, will
arrive tomorrow for the purpose of-o
inspecting the University with Pres-
ident Hutchins. This board is ap-
pointed by the State Superintendent
of Instruction to inspect the schools1
of the state and report is being made
to him. The inspection of the Univer-
sity will take at least three days.
The total registration in the univer-
sity reached 4675 yesterday afternooon,
a gain of 101 over last year at this
time. The enrollment of students is
still continuing in all. departments.
Substantial gains are reported from
nearly every department. The literary
shows the largest increase with 157,
the engineering next with 39, grad-
uate school shows 19 more students,
homeopathic.10 and the dental depart-
ment 7. The pharmic department has
the same number enrolled as last year
at this time.
Two departments show a loss, the
medic leading with a decrease of 72
due to the increase entrance require-
ments that took effect two years ago.
There are 59 less number of law stu-
dents in the university than last year.
.The cause is attributed to the rais-
ing of the standard of the law depart-
.ment.
Damaged Safe Is Repaired.
The door. of the safe in the Treasur-
er's office, which was badly damaged,
by yeggs last Wednesday morning, has
been replaced by one formerly used in
the First National Bank. Nitroglyc-
erine employed by the robbers, bent
the door to such an extent that it could
not be repaired.
The repairs on the vault are hard-
ly more than temporary, as it is ex-
pected a new safe will be installed
later.
A. A. Klein, '11, Gets Good Position.
A. Albert Klein, who graduated in
the June class of 1911, has been ap-
pointed petographer to the United
States bureau of standards with his
headquarters at Pittsburgh. He will
apply the petographical optical meth-
ods to the study of cement.
While here, Klein was an assistant
in the minerology department for
three years, but was perhaps better
known as the manager of the Univer-
sity band for last year.
Recently the University of Kansas
organized a debating league among
the high scholls of the state. The
extension division' of the university
supplies them with debate material,
bibliographies and magazines.

old days has departed the most char-

Into those four walls emptied the

higher up on the ladder of classes'

a freshman is a freshman until his
cap has been licked by the flames of

old days.
Now dismantled foundations and de-
