Michigan's 1914 track schedule, both
for indoor and outdoor meets, and the
1914 Varsity football schedule were
ratified at a meeting of the board in
control of athletics last evening at the
office of the athletic association.
The indoor track schedule contains
no surprises. It lists the usual dual
meets with Syracuse and Cornell, Syr-
acuse at Syracuse on March 14, and
Cornell at Ann Arbor on March 28.
A feature is the dual meet between the
All-Fresh team and the M. A. C. Var-
sity on March 14, while Michigan's
Varsity team is meeting the Orange-
men at the Salt City.
The outdoor schedule provides for
Michigan's attending the Penn relays
at Philadelphia on April 24 and 25.
for Cornell at Ann Arbor on May 2.
Syracuse at Ann Arbor on May 16, and
the Eastern Intercollegiate meet on
May 29 and 30, besides the usual Var-
sity meet May 9. The Interscholastic
meet for Michigan preparatory schools
is set for May 22 and 23.
The 1914 football schedule, as rati-
fied, fulfilled expectations. The play-
ing dates are the same as have been
predicted, with Pennsylvania playing
at Ann Arbor on November 7, and Cor-
nell at Ann Arbor on November 14.
The M. A. C. game on October 17 may
be played either at Ann Arbor or Lan-
sing. Negotiations are still pending,
and it is hoped the Agriculturists will
consent to play on Ferry field.'

WOMEN INVITE ALL.
TO, ICECARNIVAL
Everybody, including the merest
man, will be welcome at the ice car-
nival to be sponsored by the Women's
League, Wednesday evening at Wein-
berg's rink. The committee in charge,
under the chairmanship of Beatrice
Merriam, '14, has taken over the rink
for the evening, and the proceeds will
go into the treasury of the league.
Admission to the affair will be 15
cents. Tickets may be obtained from
the members of the committee: Jessie
Cameron, '14, Honora Fogerty, '15,
Clara Roe, '15, Anna Benjamin, '15,
Anita Kelley, '17, Beatrice Lambrecht,
'16, Jean Scott, '14. Admission cards
will also be on sale at the gate.
Band selections will be a part of the
evening's program. The ice is said
to be in excellent condition, and if the
cold weather continues, those in
charge expect a capacity crowd.
PLANS FOR SELF-RY7LE TO
BE DISCUSSED BY WOMEN
Mass-Meeting on Tuesday Will Hear
Professor Lloyd Concerning
1915 Work.
A mass-meeting of all university
women has been called by the self-
government committee for 4:00 o'clock
Tuesday afternoon, January 13, in Bar-
bour gymnasium, at which plans for
self-rule will be outlined, and an at-
tempt made to ascertain the general
attitude of the women toward this
new movement.
Professor A. H. Lloyd, as chairman
of the investigation committee on
house-clubs, will speak about the pro-
posed work of that body for 1915, and
the need for self-government in bet-
tering general conditions. Miss Gil-
lette of the university library staff,
will discuss the need and possibilities
for obtaining quiet and better study-
ing conditions in the general library,
which is the first reform that the self-
government committee wishes to bring
about.
Dr. Geisel Advocates Simple Diet
Dr. Carolyn Geisel, member of the
faculty of the Shorter College for
Girls at Rome, Ga., said she went
through the Michigan medical college
on a diet of chocolate creams and cof-
fee, in speaking at the Race Better-
ment Conference at Battle Creek Fri-
day. Dr. Geisel's ambition is to es-
tablish a chair of health and house-
hold economics for every col-
lege in the United States and
to have these institutions re-
strict girls as to diet and dress.
Dr. Geisel further stated that if as
many hogs died before 'maturity as
children, die at birth or soonn after,
stockmen would stop raising hogs.

tamed with any degree of certainty.
Mr. Editor, we fully appreciate the
worth of the present student members
of the board in control. It is the first
time in our memory, since student
opinion has been represented. They
voted with us on the band, on the Har-
vard game. We are more than satis-
fled with them.
But we are looking to the future,
and we are trying to profit by the
past. It took great efforts to get the
present students in office and we feel
that the "ring" will get into action
again unless the greatest care is exer-
cised We would settle the matter In
one stroke by putting the election be-
fore the entire student body.
It is much more difficult to work
politics, swap votes, with five thousand
of us than it is in an organization of
six or seven members.

Dr. W. G. Puddefoot, of Indianapolis,
Ind., will speak, under the auspices
of the Y. M. C. A., in the Majestic the-
ater at 6:30 o'clock tonight. He vis-
ited Ann Arbor earlier in. the season,
and is returning because of the large
number of people who were unable to
hear him at that time. As an annual
guest of many of the eastern universi-
ties for the past 15 years, Dr. Pudde-
foot has given addresses recently at
Yale, Harvard, Amherst, and Brown.
Dr. Puddefoot began his work by
traveling in Northern Michigan in the
interests of home missions, before the
churches had been established in the
territory. He is engaged by the Con-
gregational church in conducting mis-
sionary activities in Indiana.
Although more than 70 years old,
Dr. Puddefoot is a man of remarkable
vigor, and frequently delivers two
speeches daily. He comes here after
talking to an audience in Detroit. His
virile delivery, coupled with the hum-
orous style employed,' xakes idn a
most entertaining and effectiveorator.
He is noted for his up to date views
on theological questions.
Motion pictures at 6:10 o'clock will
precede the program and special music
is to be provided.

"it is quite evident that it is none too
pretentious for Michigan.
The Comedy club is naturally quite
elated at the possibility of endorse-
ment by the local center, for the
league aims to aid none but the most
deserving of dramatic performances.
The object of the organization is not
so much to elavate the stage, as it is
to first find a deserving play and then
elevate the public to the stage. This
is the first university production which
the League has ever considered en-
dorsing.

ly a discussion of the system employ-
ed by the Chinese. government in send-

Secreteary Bryan Passes Through City
A few students, who went to the
Michigan Central station to see Sec-
retary of State William Jennings Bry-
an, as he passed through here yester-
day afternoon on his way to the Jack-
son Day banquet in Jackson, were re-
warded for their long wait when the
"Peerless One" came oito the plat-
form of his Pullman and in response
to the signs of greeting, took off his
hat and bowed to those present. The
train on which the Secretary traveled,
was held in Detroit about half an hour
so that he might finish his speech be-
fore the Board of Commerce of that
city.
