The regents have arranged for a course o talks on this subject to be given by members of the medical department. The purpose of the course is to fa- miliarize the first year men with the simplest measures to be taken in time of sudden accident, especially in re- viving fainting or drowning persons. The course will probably consist of seven or eight illustrated lectures with frequent demonstrations to be held in the gymnasium. The "Michigan method" of sustenta- tion of the apparently drowned will be taught. This method was first con- ceived by a medical student in the university some years ago, but no pub- licity was ever given to this method. Several years ago Dr. Shafer, an Eng- lishman, in lecturing to the medical students, demonstrated this method and it is now more commonly known as the "Shafer method." FIXEL ELECTED PRESIDENT OF JEWISH CONGREGATION With a gain of 52 life members yes- terday, the Union made the biggest one-day stride since the beginning of the campaign. This makes a total of 781, and when tonight's returns are received, the committee expects to be at least within striking distance of the 1,000 mark. Returns from all of the classes will be received tonight, and all committeemen are urged to hand in their reports at 7:00 o'clock.

THAW MAKES HOCJEYISTS QUIT Engineer-L#,w Men Are Declared to Be the Campus Leaders Warm weather has compelled man- ager Glenny of the hockey league to cancel all the remaining games sched- uled to be played. This arrangement gives the engineer-law team first place with the fresh engineers second, and the lits and the science teams tied for third. Men on the first two teams will receive their numerals for the season's work. Owing to the fact that some of the teams have played games not arranged for by either Director Rowe or man- ager Glenny, those in charge arbitrar- fly fixed the standings of the teams as follows: engineer-laws, won 3 and lost 0; fresh engineers, won 2 and lost 1; the lits and the science team each have lost 2 and won 0. Church and Milard Get Appointments Nominations of F. M. Church,'14, and F. G. Milard, '14, to fill the places left vacapt on The Michigan Daily staffs by the resignations of Gordon C.

Rogers, of Lansing, a member of the Michigan state highway commission, will be the speaker. Several musical numbers will be ar- ranged for tomorrow's program. PLANS'7F PAGEANT NEAR COMPLETION Piloted by five committees the plans for the Joan D'Arc pageant are rapidly nearing completion. The prob- lem of costumes which has puzzled the management for several months has finally been committed to the hands of Bert St. John, who after a confer- ence with Prof. A. H. Kenyon seems assured that all the requirements can be satisfactorily arranged in Detroit instead of in New York. Designs for the banners in the pageant are already in hand and the work on them will ber commenced directly.l As contemplated now the pageant will be divided into five acts or scenes,. the old idea of floats and procession like displays being done away with as far as possible. The first scene will portray Joan's early life before herc being called; the second will depict a court scene; the third shows the siege of Orleans; the fourth represents the' coronation of Charles VII; and the fifth portrays the death of Joan D'Arc. Fer the peasant dances and the. court balls Earl Moore is writing con- temioraneous music, especially for the songs of the monks and friars. In- strumental music is also being com- posed.x t. P.
