George Moritz, '15, playing the part of Caroline Sedley, the title feminine role in "A Model Daughter," who strained his keen slightly while prac- ticing some dancing steps at last Sat- urday afternoon's rehearsal, is recov- ering rapidly and it was announced last night that the injury would prob- ably not interfere with his filling the place in the cast. Moritz played a lead- ing feminine part in last year's opera, and made a lasting hit not only for his grace as a girlhbut also for his singing ability, in the solo parts he carried. The first complete rehearsal of cast and chorus was held in Hill audito-- rium last night. Director St. John was well pleased with the spirit shown, and is confident that by the time the curtain rises on the first per- formance a week from tomorrow, night, everything will be perfected. A cast rehearsal will be held at the Un- ion this afternoon as usual, and the entire cast and chorus will meet at the Union tonight at 7:00 o'clock. The following men were finally pick- ed last night for the Artists' parts in the chorus: H. C. Duffield, '16, Harold Easley, '16, F. P. Surgenor, '16, H. W.' Warner, '16, H. K. Lane, '15, Norman James, '16, H. B. Bartholf, '16E, J. Melaniphy, '16L, substitutes, H. Bell,' '14, and . C. Abbott, '15E.'

Howland, head of the vocal department of the School of Music, has tendered his res- ignation, to take effect at the close of the present school year. Although Mr. Howland's work in Ann Arbor has won universal commendation, and his re- lations with the School of Music ex- tremely friendly, he believes that the possibilities for musical expansion, both in concert work and in teaching. co be greater elsewhere. In his early career, Mr. Howland was engaged with the Bostonian Opera Co., singing the leadig baritone roles. For five years, he was prominent in New York musical circles, engaging both in concert and church work. Im- mediately prior to coming to Ann Ar- bor, he taught in Boston and Worces- ter, where he also conducted Choral Societies. At present Mr. Howland is bass solo- ist and director of the choir at the Temple Bethel in Detroit, where in ad- dition he is conducting -the Temple Choral Society, and f .the Peoples' Choral Society, of nearly six hundred voices. As yet nobody has :been appointed to succeed Mr. Howland. He will open a studio in Detroit in the fall. MICHIGAN'S TRACK CHANCES AGAINST CORNELL IMPROVE Michigan's chances against Cornell -in the two dual track meets to be held here this spring have been greatly increased by the withdrawal of Reller, the crack sprinter, from the eastern intsitution. Reller placed second in the 100 yard dazh at the intercollegiates last year, tLc e vc in which Bond took fourth. In the other sprint Reller failed to place, with Seward and Bond taking second and third, respectively. With Reller out of it, Michigan should score heavily in the two sprints at both indoor and outdoor meets, as Cornell has no other sprinter in the class of Bond, Seward, Lapsley and Smith. procured slips may do so today 9:00 until 12:00 and from 1:00 5:00 o'clock at the Union. NOVEL CONTEST TO DECIDE ON MOST POPULAR STUDENT A contest to determine the most pop- ular man in the university will be inaugurated the latter part of this week. To the winner will be given a $200, 4 1-2 horse-power Marsh-Mets motorcycle. The voting will be by bal- lots, consisting of the fronts of pack- ages of three different kinds of cigar- ettes made by the Liggett and Myers Tobacco Co. Each package front from Fatima cigarettes will count for 60 votes. The other two brands have not yet been decided upon. No qualifica- tions are imposed upon the candidates, excepting that they be students in the university, while anyone, whether stu- dent or not, is entitled to cast his bal- lot. PARSONS IS REELECTED TO PRESIDENCY OF BOAT CLUB Officers of the Union Boat club were selected at the annual meeting of the organization last Saturday night as follows: commodore-H. S. Parsons, '15E; vice- commodore-W. S. David- son, '15; secretary-P. H. Middleditch, '15E; treasurer-H. G. Gault, '15. Reports were given by the various regatta committees and plans for next year were discussed. Another meet- ing of the organization will be held in the near future. APPOINT FORMER NURSE TO. HEAD UNIVERSITY HOSPITAL Miss Margaret E. Jones, who was formerly connected with the Universi- ty hospital, has been appointed matron, to take the place of Miss Edna Schwalm, who was ordered deported by the Department of Labor for alleg- ed violation of tree contract labor law. from until Early returns from the reorganized committees now covering the remain- der of the campus for Union life mem- bers, have brought the total up to 959, promising well for the last spurt in the local campaign. If the students, faculty and alumni respond as well to this concentrated canvass as they did to the efforts of the first committee, it is reasonably certain that next fall will see the ground broken for the long looked-for Union club house. The following are the names of the latest signers: Russell V. Lucas, grad., Eng. Su Sy, '15, George W. Wiard, '17E, Willis Brodhead, '17E, George W. Anderson, '15, Albert B. Parfet, '16, Thomas R.

REHEARSAL OF "SHE STOOPS TO CONQUER" SHOWS FINISH Rehearsal of "She Stoops to Con- quer" yesterday afternoon, moved with such smoothness and finish, that in the opinion of Prof. R. D. T. Hollister, who is directing the play, the produc- tion could be staged successfully today. Costumes for the production will ar- rive from Detroit tomorrow, and the scenery will be installed in time for the final dress rehearsal Thursday ev- ening. The seat sale at Wahr's start- ed yesterday and will continue until Friday from 4:00 to 6:00 o'clock in 'the afternoon. PRESIDENT HUTCHINS' CLASS FLAG OF '71 IS ON EXHIBIT The class flag of President Harry B. Hutchins has been resurrected from the depths of the basement of Univer- sity hall, and is now on exhibition in Secretary Shirley Smith's office. It was carried by the class of '71 the day of the class exercises, when President Hutchins, as class orator, spoke in the Methodist church. The banner Is blue on one side and yellow on the other, bearing the class motto, "To the stars through difficulties," and the clajss numerals.! HOUSE CLUB DELEGATES IN SESSION WITH FACULTY MEN Sororities, woman's league houses, professional fraternities,. and men's house clubs are holding conferences with the house club sub-committee of the non-athletic committee of the sen- ate during this week. These are an- nual meetings and not special gather- ings, although several recommenda- tions will doubtless b.e made. The ses- sions will be held on dIfferent days of the week. The sororties met yester- day. Remaining Candidates Begin Fighting It Out For Positions on Varsity COACH STARTS INFIELD WORK The baseball candidates surviving Saturday's cut had one of the liveliest practice sessions of the training sea- son yesterday, with practically all the men out. With the first game but four short weeks away, and the squad narrowed down to the point where in- dividual rivalry for the different po- sitions has begun, both veterans and youngsters are on their toes. Quaintance was the only veteran hurler to work out yesterday, and the squad leaned against the offerings of the recruit pitchers in murderous fash- ion. Of the youngsters, Soddy, the only southpaw on the squad besides. Captain Sisler, looks as if he had something. Davidson, of last year's, squad, and Ferguson, a tall, rangy recruit, are also possible Varsity hurl- ers. Following the dafly slugging - bee, Lundgren chased his battery men to the showers, and gave his infield can- didates a long fielding drill, himself laying down the bounders. On the oth- r side of the gym the gardeners scoop- ed up the balls from another battel-. From now on the fielding drills will probably occupy almost as much time as the batting sessions. DYNAMO, INACTIVE FIFTEEN YEARS, WILL BE REPAIRED Prof. H. H. Higbie's class in El-B, are reconstructing an old dynamo which has been found in the basement of University hall. It has not been used for 15 years. The dynamo was operated as a booster for some of the feeders of the university power plant until the com- mutator blew out and wrecked the machine. The dynamo will be used in the laboratory and will also feature the coming exhibit. Engineer-Lit Sophs to Dine March 26 An interdepartmental dinner for the men of the soph engineer and the soph lit classes, is being arranged for March 26. The event will be in the nature of a "get-acquainted" party, intended primarily for the benefit of those who expect to attend the soph prom. Freshmen, to the number of 500, temporarily forgot their respective de- partments and yelled themselves hoarse for a united class of 1917, at an "All- Fresh" smoker given by fresh lits last night at the Union. Talks, of a "pep" nature, were given by several first year men, with Prof. W. A. Fray- er of the history department, repre- sentiig the faculty. The freshman en- gineer orchestra, glee club and quar- tette rendered music for the affair. Freshman engineers promised to do even better than the lits by giving an affair of a similar nature in the near future. Both classes are considering the giving of a mammoth open air smoker, open to all first year men on the campus, at some time next spring. Peking University Official Visits City Harry E. King, '91, vice-prsident of Peking University, China, visited Ann Arbor last Friday and signed the alumni rigester in Alumni Memorial hall.
