WRESTLERS BEGIN TRAIMING
FOR CHAMPIONSHIP MATCHES
Under the direction of Heavyweight
Champion Lichtner, the Varsity foot-
ball player, Michigan's wrestlers com-
menced active training yesterday for
the annual campus championship
bouts, scheduled for the fore part of
the second semester. Assisting Licht-
ner are Watson, runner-up to the
champion, and Champ, the lightweight
title holder of the university.
Followers of the sport have started
an agitation for outside competition
for the university grapplers, but un-
less some official support for their
movement develops, the possibilities of
any title matches are considered slim.
Nevertheless the interest in wrestling
this year is proving far greater than
ever before.

International Arbitration Society, and
famous lyceum lecturer, traveler and

Mr. Inui's successful career as an

tion is a response to the working stu-
dents' campaign committee, which, in
cooperation with the Ann Arbor civic
association, is trying to bring to this
city a factory which will furnish em-
ployment to stndents during odd
hours.
The Detroit business man intends to
move his stove factory to Ann Arbor,
if the scheme meets the approval of
the board. A sales office will be es-
tablished in connection with the plant,
and students may allot a fixed portion
of their time to work in it. The owner
of the factory believes that no article
offers profit, or sale possibilities, bet-
ter than the electrical goods, which
are sold on the "money back if not
satisfied" basis.
rwo other local concerns have sub-
mitted plans to the working students'
committee to use studeut help in their
factories. Regularity of time of work
in the factories is the chief difficulty
in the plans offered, as students ex-
pect to drop their work during exam-
ination days.

At this meeting, the men will learn

0. H. L. WERNICKE TO SPEAK
ON UNION PROGRAM TODAY

At the next luncheon given by the
women of the senior class, subscrip-
tion blanks will be distributed, and
pledges of $5 to be paid in full a year
from now, or $1 each year for five
years, will be solicited. This sub-
scription entitles the donor to a cou-
pon, granting her the use of the dor-
mitory in the future, at reasonable
transient rates.
Every woman is requested to use
her influence during the Christmas
vacation to interest her relatives and
friends in the campaign, and to come
back prepared to contribute something
toward the fund. Treasurers will be
appointed from the several classes to
take charge of the subscriptions.
DIRECTOR ROWE PLANS FOR
BIG HANDICAP TRACK MEET
Contest Will Take Place in February
and Is Arranged Primarily
For "Dubs."
Floyd A. Rowe, director of intramu-
ral activities, announced yesterday his
latest innovation for interclass con-
tests. His newest plans call for a
handicap meet, to be held sometime
in the middle of February and intend-
ed for those athletes heretofore com-
monly designated as "dubs." Neither
Varsity men, nor meinbers of the var-
sity squad will be allowed to compete
and a special effort will be made to
enter those men who have never be-
fore taken any part in either Varsity
or interclass athletics.
The meet will not be entirely con-
fined to track and field events but will
also include competition in gymnastic

Iowa and Oberlin universities at Ober-
lin. Although the audience was in-

spontaneous applause at his brilliant
oratory before he had spoken five min-
utes.
While in Ann Arbor, Mr. Inui will

exercises. The object in including
the latter will be to enable those men
t , compete, who have shown profieie.4-
c in the various gymnastic feats.
'he meet, according to the ten-
tative plans already outlined by Di-
iector Rowe, will be strictly a han-
dicap affair, the handicaps to be de-
termined by means of trials held dur-
ing the week previous to the holding
of the final events. The meet is to be
open to every male student of the uni-
versity and Director Rowe intends to
take personal charge of entering from
two to three hundred men in the va-
rious events. -It has not yet been de-
termined whether awards will be giv-
en the winners of the various events.

After a week of correspondence and
negotiations, the management of the
Comedy club has finally succeeded ini
having the date of the producton of
the "Scare row' 'h iged to,-Friday,
January 16. This was only made pos-
sible by an agreement between Man-
ager Lane of the Whitney theatre and
Klaw and Erlanger company, of New
York, whereby "The Lure," one of the
K. and E. productions, has been shift-
ed from the 16th to the 17th.
Several things contributed to make
the postponement necessary, but chief
among these were the delays incident
to the shipment of the new scenery,
and the unforeseen difficulties in whip-
ping the new material into shape. The
properties are expected almost any
time, and when they arrive will be
put to immediate use. Especially in
the first act it becomes almost imper-
ative to the progress of the play that
the proper stage effects be used during
the rehearsals. .
The task of coaching and training
the newly selected cast is now at its
most difficult stage. The different plans
of stage business for every small scene
faust be worked out to the smallest
detail.

"Dead Lions" will be the subject of
the lecture of Lincoln McConnell at
6:30 o'clock tonight at the Majestic
theatre, under the auspices of the Uni-
versity Y. M. C. A. McConnell is a
famous southern lecturer who is mak-
ing a tour of the north under the
management of the Redpath Lyceum
Bureau. His lecture will be an inspir-
ational address based on a biblical
story. It is Mr. McConnell's oldest
lecture having been delivered more
than 500 times, and as many as three
times in one year to the same audi-
ence.
As a humorist and impersonator
McConnell is even more famous than
as a preacher. He has also been a
cowboy, and for several years held a
position as a police detective in Atlan-
ta, Georgia, where he is now pastor
of the largest church.
Tonight's meeting will open at 6:10
o'clock with motion pictures which
will run until Mr. McConnell's address
at 6:30.
Two More Peace Orations Submitted
Two more manuscripts of orations
for the Peace contest have been filed
with the oratory department. They
are: "The Leaders in World Peace,"
by B. J. Jonkman, '14L, and "The
Common People, Champions of Peace,"
by D. A. Graham, '16.

Several Musical Numbers Have
Been Secured. "Ike" Fisher
