PLAY.I

Following the receipt of several
complaints concerning the condition of
towels in wash rooms about the cam-
pis, The -Michigan Daily yesterday
sent a representative to makes a gener-
al investigation of the towels in use.
Practically all of the lavatories in uni-
versity buildings were visited, and it
was ascertained that nearly all con-
tained towels liberally smeared with
dirt.
In many cases the towels were so
soiled as to be unfit for use. It was
foupd generally that they were too
small for the needs of the respective
wash rooms.
"All janitors have strict orders to
change the lavatory towels as soon as
they become soiled," said J. H. Marks,
superintendent of buildings and
grounds, when seen last evening. "I
can't understand why this has not been
done, but I will make sure that the of-
fending janitors hear from any cases
that are reported in the future.
"Our experiment with paper towels
did not prove entirely successful. They
were thrown about the floor after be-
in used, and were probably no more
sanitary than the common roller tow-
el. Beside this, their expense was pro-
hibitive, it costing something like one
dollar a day to provide towelling for
one roller.
"It seems to me that the only solu-
tion of the problem is to have the pres-
ent towels changed more frequently.,
Sometimes the towels in a wash room
are dirtied in a few minutes-for in-
stance, after being used by seven or
eight men who have been out prac-
ticing landscape gardening. It is often
impossible for the janitor to discover,
the condtion of the towels at once, andl
they are allowed to remain for somea
time without being changed."t
Dean V. C. Vaughan, of the medical"
department, believes with Supt. Marks
that the paper towels are not practica-
ble, and thinks that the only expedient
is to use more care in keeping the rol-
ler towels in good condition,.

Five runs in the first inning, sewed
up the game with O. S. U. for Michigan

yesterday afternoon, and left a rathej
listless and uninteresting eight in-
nings to drag along. At no time wer c
the Ohio boys dangerous and their twc
scores came in the last two innings
and after all hope of a close score had
gone. The very onesidedness of the
contest prevented its being interesting
and there were no fast plays pulled off,
"Smi" Smith pitched the -first seven
innings and the Buckeyes were help-
less before him, eight of them whiff-
ing and only three hits being register-
ed against his delivery.
One surprise brought out by the
game was the fact that Nourie, the
A. . man from St. Viature had been
declared eligible by the board and he
appeared at the third corner. The
matter was not finally decided until a
few hours before the game, and Rickey
at once put him in. His playing was
fair, but showed a lack of practice, and
his one error cost Michigan a run. The
decision of the board in this case will
probably settle a dispute in regard to
eligibility that has been a hard nut to
crack, and henceforth, A.B. men from
unrecognized schools will be consider-
ed eligibles,
Michigan's Playing is Slow.
Snyder, who did the twirling for 0.
S. U. was easy in the first inning but
tightened up after that and only in the,
sixth did he waver. His support, how-
ever was not of the best. Michigan's
playing was good in form but showed
a woetul lack of "pep," due perhaps
to the five run lead, This mechanical
slowness has been noticeable in both
games so far. Ward was allowed to
pitch the last two innings again yes-
terday but failed to show the form he1
displayed Friday. It was due to his
delivery that Ohio got her tow tallies.
Just what he could do in a whole game
is problematical,
First Inning Decides Outcome.
The game was practicaly decided in -
the first inning, Duncanson hit and
Bell was safe on Snyder's error though.
Duncanson was caught trying to reach
third on the play. Mitchell walked and
he and Bell pulled off a double steal.
Munson hit to the infield and Bell was
caught between home and third but
finally the ball bounced off his back
permitting him to score, Then follow-
ed the slaughter. Lavans doubled to
center, Rogers tripled to right, and
Howard poled out one for two sacks.
When the 'smoke cleared away five men
had crossed the plate. Michigan did
not score again until the sixth. Nourie
hit and was safe on Snyder's error.
Duncanson hit to third but the worthy
guardian of that sack heaved the ball
into the grand stand and Nourie scor-
ed, Bell got in the way of a curve and
Mitchell hit, filling the sacks. Munson
raised a sacrifice fly and Bell came
home, concluding the scoring.-
Ohio's runs came in the eighth and
ninth. Reilly walked, stole second and
scored on Nourie's error. In the ninth,

Prof. Zoivski Tells How to Secure
Eficiency,
One of the largest and most enthu-
siastic banquets ever given by.the En-
gineering society was held at the Mich-
igan Union last night.
Jerry Collins, '12 E, president of the
society, introduced the toastmaster
George Bancroft to the eighty or more
members who were present. John Eck-
hart related many of the humorous
little incidents of the mechanical en-
gineers spring trip. "Tommy" Hugh-
itt, '15 E, "Jack" Brent, '14 E, "Ted"
Seeley, '13 E, and Ira Hook, '12 E,
spoke on the outlook on college life H
from the viewpoint of their respective
classes. Pr
In response to the toast "Efficiency,"
Prof. S. J. Zowski said, "In designing
my turbines I sent my wife away first
thing, then I forgot all the mathemat-
i s that I knew and took a pencil in un
one hand an eraser in the other and th
started to work depending on common ne
sense to aid me." Fil
Gardiner S. Williams spoke on po
"Practice" and Prof. C. T. Johnson th
concluded the program with a few ho
short stories. pa
Dean Mortimer E. Coolky who was Pr
to speak was unable to attend on ac- Un
count of illness. cei
