HALL DENIES RUMOR THAT
CLASSES WILL CLOSE EARLY
Registrar Arthur G. Hall yesterday
afternoon officially denied the current
rumor that exercises in the university
would be suspended before Friday of
next week, by reason of the convention
of the state Schoolmasters' club. Ac-
cording to Registrar Hall, the annual
spring vacation period will not com-
mence until Friday night, the schedul-
ed time.
JUNIOR LITS TAKE
BASKETBALL FLAG
ported unfavorably on the project, and
the refusal to change the date for cap
night from May 29 to May 22, in ac-
cordance with the request of the inter-
scholastic manager, featured the reg-
ular meeting of the student council
last night.
In the discussion on reorganization,
the council definitely decided to retain
all its legislative, executive and judi-
cial powers, and to limit the size of
the body to practically one-half of the
present number, with the method and
time of election the same as it is now.
This will result in the council consist-
ing of 4 lits, 3 engineers, 2 laws, 1
dent, 1 medic, 1 homeop, 1 pharmic
and 1 from the graduate department.
The time for changing into the new
system was not decided.
Werner Schroeder, '14, and H.G.Tait,
'15, reported that after considering co-
operative stores at other universities,
and interviewing local business men
and faculty members, conditions were
found unfavorable for the establish-
ment of a similar store at this univer-
sity. If it were started in only one
line, competing merchants would un-
dersell in that line, while it would re-
quire too much captital, at least $12,-
000, to organize a store in all lines.
The council turned down the petition
of the athletic association to change
the date of cap night from May 29 to
May 22, because of the aid it would
give the boat club regatta if held on
the former date.
ate council yesterday to give a Satur-
day matinee presentation of "A Model
Daughter" in Detroit, in response to
a petition presented at the request of
the Detroit alumni. However, it will
not be known definitely until this
morning, when the opera manage-
ment will communicate with the alum-
ni committee, whether the afternoon
performance will actually be staged,
or whether the company will return to
Ann Arbor late Friday night.
Approximately 85 members of the
cast, chorus, orchestra aild committees
will leave for Detroit at 11:12 Friday
morning to prepare for the presenta-
tion of the show at the Broadway thea-
ter Friday night. Special cars will
meet the train, and take the company
directly to the University club, where
the men will be guests of honor at
lunch. A rehearsal will be held dur-
ing the afternoon.
Complete arrangements have not
been made for the Chicago trip, but
it is likely that a special train, leaving
Ann Arbor late in the evening, will
carry the troupe for the production
in that city. The glee club men who
have places in the cast and chorus will
meet the rest of the company in Chi-
cago, after giving a Friday night con-
cert in Grand Rapids.
The final rehearsal of the cast be-
fore the Detroit trip will be held at
4:00 o'clock this afternoon at the Un-
ion, and the final chorus rehearsal at
6:45 o'clock tonight in Hill auditorium.
The management states that no
books for the 1915 opera will be receiv-r
ed after April 28. The authors must,
have the first act, including the lines,
opening and finale and lyrics ready at{
this time.t

The junior lit basketball team won
the campus championship last night
by defeating the senior engineers, 25
