Undergraduate Extravagance.
The extravagant undergraduate is
but one product of an era in which
men have acquired money ten times a
fast, as they have acquired cultire.
The story is told that a New York mul-
ti-millionaire wishing to call on his
son, an undergraduate in a New Eng-
land university, hunted up the pri-
vate dormitory of which the young
gentleman was an inmate. The unso-
phisticated elder was amazed at the
magnificence of the structure. The
liveried custodian, or curator, of the
palace was gracious in answer to his
inquiries and promised to commum-
cate With the lad's "man." That func-
tionary, also in livery, regretted to say
that his master was out with his foot-
man and four-in-hand. The father,
however, it is said, was allowed to sit
down in the son's gilded parlors to re-
coverfo his shock.
It may be safely said that the aver-
age student in American universities
does not lack that experience in sim-
plicity and economy of which he
should be characteristic, but it Is
equally safe to say that there are all
too many exceptions. To hold the
lavish youth in check would call fo
more paternal intervention than is
now usual in college, and whether
such an extension of paternalism is
desirable may be gravely doubted. The
wisdom of a university senate or a
student council cannot cure the mal-
ady from which so many students suf-
fer,--foolish parents.
If the father or mother will not lim-
it allowances to minors and will not
demand accountings, the colleges are
really helpless and the young men, at
the most critical period of their lives,
acquire habits that makethem the
slaves= rather than 'the masters of cir-~
cumstances.
JEFFERSONIAN JURY IN MOCK
TRIAL OF ISMAY DISAGREES
The subject for discussion at the
meeting of the Jeffersonian society
held last night in the law building was
the legal results of the Titanic disas-
ter. After the installation of new of-
ficers, the meeting took the form of a
criminal prosecution against J. Bruce
Ismay on a charge of manslaughter,
the members present constituting the
jury before which the case was tried.
No verdict was rendered as the jury,
disagreed. Charles E. Misner acted as
judge.
Soph Lits Hold Dance at Barbour Gym
Ignoring the lure of balmy spring,
over sixty soph lits gathered in Bar-
bour gym yesterday afternoon for the
last dance the class will give this sea-
son. Mrs. J. R. Effinger and Mrs. G.
L. Canfield acted as chaperones.
NEXT YEAR'S BALL
PROSPECTS BRIGHT
in Three Years, According to Di-
rector Bartelme; "Reserve"
Squid to be Formed
INII4J4CIILES T[O MEE2T VARSITY.
With the opening of the inter-class
series and the noticeable presence of
ball tossers from every department of
the university on the diamonds at Fer-
ry field, speculation is rife as to the
probable strength of next year's var-
sity squad even at this early date.
Among the men who are daily prac-
ticing with their respective class teams
are players, who on account of the
strict rule affecting first year men, are
not permitted to play on the Varsity
but who, unless they lose their ama-
teur standing or leave school before
the opening of the baseball season will
be strong candidates for positions on
the big team for 1913. Quoting Coach
Rickey of the regulars, the bunch as
a whole is the most promising that has
been seen at Michigan in three years.
A team composed entirely of these
mon who are eligible to play next year
will be picked by Coach Rickey early
.next week and they will clash with
the Varsity next Thursday. This nine
cnmiosed mostly of freshmen will be
a team of Michigan "Reserves" having
an identity of its own and bearing the
same relation to the representative
baseball team as the "R" men do to the
Varsity eleven. It is proposed to have
two games a week between these two
teams, limited probably to seven in-
iings at which an official score will be
kept and published, thus making it
possible to derive an idea of the re-
spective strength of the teams by indi-
vidual figures, in fielding and batting.
SENATOR'S SON BECOMES HIS

By means of an active campaign to
be conducted in India within the next
few months under. the auspices of the
Hindu society, M'ibhigan may. become
the Mecca for Indian students in Amer-
ica. A fund is being raised to print
pamphlets and papers setting forth
the educational advantages offered by
the University of Michigan to the Hin-
dustan youth, which will be distributed
in India. The fund will be augmented
from the proceeds realized from the
series of lectures which are to be de-
livered under the auspices of the Hin-
du Club. The first of these is a lec-
ture by Rev. J. T. Sunderland, of De-
troit, father of Prof. E. R. Sunderland
of the law faculty, who will speak on
"British Rule in India," at the Unita-
r ian church, this evening at 7:30.
