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.

'H. " 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. LANDMARK PASSES WITH HAZING "College Inn," Old Soph Headquarters is Dismantled. Liberty street does not let its pride run rampant over other city highways these days. Into the land from which there is no return has gone its great- est claim to fame for along with the old days has departed the most char- acteristic landmark of those same days. Old College Inn is no more. Time was when College Inn featured the opening of every new year. From its four small walls radiated the pick- et lines of the mighty sophomore class. Into those four walls emptied the soph drag-net. Liberty street was the danger zone for the freshman, College Inn its -hated center. Here he learned his alphabet anew. Here he gave his high school yells. Here he ate of garlic and mustard and stale. "dog." Also did he learn that to those higher up on the ladder of classes' must he show respect; that the tradi- tions- of a university are many; that a freshman is a freshman until his cap has been licked by the flames of a certain annual fire. Such were the old days. Now dismantled foundations and de- bris mark the place where the school- ing was once administered. A huge tank-once a receptacle for those whose training must needs be accom- panied by a plunge into water tem- pered by cold October nights--weath- ea's away in:the rear. The sign rests listlessly on the ground. And he whose memory dates back to the time when the mere mention of College Inn brought fear and trembling to his very heart and soul, sighs at the desolation. Dr. Warthin in Annual Address. Dr. Warthin, of the medical faculty, will deliver the annual address to new men next week Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday in the West Amphi- theater of the New Medical Building. Tickets can be obtained at the Y. M. C. A. Acacia to Build on Old Site. That the Acacia fraternity, whose house was destroyed by fire last win- ter, will rebuild on their old site on State street, is now a certainty.
