Wear Your Caps and Gowns.
The senior classes, following time
honored custom, have decided to wear
academic garb on certain days of ev-
ery week until Commencement. This
decision, while expected, is none the
less to be commended because it adds
a certain academic and scholarly air
to the campus, that is lacking before
Swing-Out.'
To make it worth while, it is nec-
essary for every member of the senior
classes to wear his or her cap and
gown upon the days set apart for this.
It is a duty and should be faithfully
performed. It would be very easy for
the faculty to assist the senior classes
by calling upon such students as they
know to be seniors who are without
cap and gown. This would have the
greatest effect upon the recalcitrants.
The fact that several faculty members
have expressed themselves in favor of
this ought to serve as an excellent
hint.
Straw Hat Day.
Saturday, May 18, is Straw Hat Day
at Michigan. It is up to the students
to make this event a big thing. Sat-
urday morning the' spring contests
take place at Ferry field and in the
afternoon the varsity track team will
meet Syracuse in a dual meet. Both
morning and afternoon make it possi-
ble for a large number to appear to-
gether in brand new spring headgear
or to get busy and have the old one
touched up.,
Keep Off the Grass.
There are enough sidewalks on the
campus to make it unnecessary for the
student to take short cuts across the
grass and wear unsightly paths
through the beautiful green. Use them.
When they wear out, the authorities
will probably replace them. it is im-
possible to replace grass that is worn
away by constant passage and it is
impossible to make anything grow in
our clay soil after it has been tramp-
ed hard by many feet. Keep off of the
grass and persuade your neighbor to
do likewise. It all helps.
SENIOR DENTAL SOCIETY TO
HOLD BIG BANQUET TONIGHT
The Senior Dentl Society will hold
its annual banquet at the Michigan
Union this evening at 6 o'clock. An,
elaborate program has been prepared
by the committee in charge, and fully
seventy are expected to attend. Paul
Alexander will act as toastmaster, and
during the evening he will call on
Dr. R. W. Bunting, Dr. R. B. Howell,
Dr. M. L. Ward, Dr. E. T. Loeffler, L.
C. Schonered, and Henry Purfield, fo
short talks.
COLLEGES RECEIVE INVITATIONS
Anniversary Bids are Sent Out to 150
American Unversities.
Seventy-fifth Anniversary invita-
tions, to about 150 educational insti-
tutions, have been sent out from the
office of General Chairman Effinger
in the last 48 hours. . In this list the
only institution not in the western
hemisphere is the University of the
Philippines. Sixteen Central and
and South American universities are
asked to send delegates. Argentina
will probably have three, from the uni-
versities at Buenos Ayres, Cordoba,
and La Plata. Two Brazilian univer-
sities may be represented, the Univer-
sidad de Rio de Janiero, and the Uni-
versidad 'de San Paulo. One Mexican
institution has been invited to send a
delegate, the Academia Majicana of
Mexico City.
The other educational institutions
of Uncle Sam's neighbors to the south,
to which this courtesy has been ex-
tended,are, the universities of San-
tiago, Chile, of Montevideo, Uaguay,
of Quito, Ecuador, of San Jose, Costa
Rica, of Havana, Cuba, the Universi-
dad Central de Venezuela, the Univer-
sidad Central del Paraguay, the Span-
ish-American universities at Bogota,
Columbia, and Guatemala, and the
Universidad Mayor de San Marcos, at
Lima, Peru. A pan-American confer-
ence of universities is to be held at the
latter place during July of thisyear.

held yesterday, Walter J. Thienes was
elected class football manager for the
year 1912-13. This is in accordance
with the new interclass constitution,
which provides for the election of the

INTERESTED AUDIENCE HEARS
TALK BY HARVARD PROFESSOR
Prof. Theodore W. Richards, of Har-
vard, lectured yesterday on the new
theory of "Atomic Compressibility,"
before a large audience of university
officials and science students. Dr.
Richards traced briefly the philosophy
and history of physico-chemical hy-
potheses, and then took up the hy-
pothesis in question, showing how ita
differs from the generally accepted
notions, and bringing forward exper-
imental evidence to bear out the as-
sumptions of the newer hypothesis.
