claimed to typify hypocrisy, deceit and
perjury, and is severely rapped. The
radical views of the small schools are
pointed out to show that harmony is
im~ipossible,and the stand against the re-
sumption of Michigan games completes
the list of charges. It is a concise,
strong, and direct charge against the
western body.
May Mean Breakup of Conference.
If the withdrawal of Illinois really
occurs many believe that the confer-
ence will break up. Although some-
what quieted down, the feeling of the
student body of Minnesota is still alive
and ready to burst forth at the first'
opportunity. These two schools have
been the real financial support and
backbone of the conference, and in re-
turn, have had their wishes and desir-
es turned down. The mass meeting
will be held at Illinois tonight, and as
faculty action on the petition is ex-
pected in a short time, the outcome
will be watched with interest here.
There are still open dates for desira-
ble conference schools, and Michigan
may boast some schedules soon that
will look like old times.

WORK, ON ANNUAL

Entire Fraternity and Organization
Section Has Been Placed in
Hands of Printer.
PROMISE A MONUMENTAL WORK.
With the last grave senior's picture
on its way to the engraver's table,
where it will be prepared. for Inser-
tion in th "family album," assurance
of an early edition of this year's an-
nual is given. The fraternity section
of this encyclopedic work has been in
the hands of the printers for several
weeks and today will see a large or-
ganization section turned over to them.
Both the literary and art features
of the book will receive tne special at-
tention of the editors trom now on.
From the quality of material contribu-
ted, and the promptness with which
it was submitted, those 1n charge are
led to promise a monumental work for
the class of 1912. Originality and dis-
tinction are predicted for the general
make-up of the volume. In spite of
its ponderous size the management
will positively not publish an India
paperedition.
The engraving is in the hands of
the Bureau of Engraving of Minneapo-
lis, which did the work for the 1911
Michiganensian. The George Banta
Publishing Co., of Menasha, Wis., have
charge of the typographical work.

fense in any subsequent proceedings.

of the year, the "Jay" lits will give
the annual evening party of the season
at Packard dancing academy tonight.

songs in true vaudeville style during

tions will be interspersed by solos.

journalism at De Pauw will be fitted
up like a metropolitan newspaper office
and undergraduates taking the course
will be sent to gather news.
Three hundred new students enroll-
'ed in Columbia University at the begin-
ning of the second semester.

COMEDY CLUB TO
BIEREORGANIZED
Permanent Organization Will Soon
Replace the Uncertain One
Now Existing.
MEMBERSHIP IS OPEN TO ALL
After a thirty year existence as the
Comedy Club, which has played before
the student public of Ann Arbor, and
then dissolved at the curtain's last
drop, with nothing to the credit of its
members but a little fool's-head emn-
blem, that organization met yesterday
and proposed a constitution which will
reorganize the club, and place it on a
new basis and in a new position as re-
gards the university. The constitution
as proposed embraces many radical
changes, and now awaits only the in-
dorsement of a faculty committee be-
fore which it will be formally placed
today.
Instead of being a passing fancy and
effort with the dramatically gifted stu-
dents of the campus, it intends to or-
ganize as a club with a schedule of
regular monthly meetings which will
offer a program of some nature to be
proposed by a committee appointed for
the purpose. Dramatic literature will
be discussed, special assignments will
be given by members of the club on.
chosen plays, and various private in-
formal dramatic entertainments will be
given by the members. A room will
be secured to meet the new needs of
the club, and this will be equipped
with the leading dramatic publications,
and a library of dramatic works.
A On, perhaps more elaborate than
the one given in the past, will be given
to all members In good standing who
have performed publically for the clubt
one year, and this, the emblem they se-
cure for one year's work will be thel
only decoration that they receive, re-
gardless of the work of subsequentl
years.3
All Students Eligible.
All students in good standing who1
pass the examination of the club are
eligible as members. This examination
will take on the form of an annual try-
out before the proper committee and]
the successful ones who pass muster
earn admission into the club, whether;
they are later picked to .fill parts or
not. The new eligibility list will al-
low freshmen to enter the club, as
well as students who may be low in
their work. This would not mean thati
these should be allowed to play in thei
roles of the chosen play, for in accord-;
ance with the university ruling, theyi
are forbidden entering such an activity,
but t ey will be allowed to enjoy thei
privileges of the club and to enter into
all discussions and non-public activ-
ities.
With a membership limited to forty,1
the club will conduct monthly meet-
ings throughout the remainder of the
college year. The main effort will be
to get an early start and line up pos-
sible plays, which the club can pro-
duce next year, so that the choosing
of one of them will be made easier than
it has been in the past.
FIFTEEN YEARS AGO TODAY.

ly injured when hit by a random ball

Spring football practice was begun

TWENTY YEARS AGO TODAY.
Fifty-one candidates for the baseball
