Amid the stirring strains of the mar- tial fife, the rattle of the drum, and beneath the blinding glare of a search light, Michigan's representatives marched away to exterminate the Mex- ican nation. Exactly at 7:30 p. m. last night, the regiment of doughty warriors passed up State street, turned down Liberty, and halted to have their picture taken for the last time. Who knows but that these faces will, in the near future, be emblazoned in the hearts of the American people-the first official uni- versity regiment to start for the land of chile con carne, revolutions, and' sagebrush? .After the picture had been taken and $219 RAISED FO~rR BlISRAHCAMPAIGN Nearly One-Third of Amouit Needed Is Gathered in First Day of Solicitation the smoke of the flash light had drifted away, the doughty captain raised his lath sword, and cried, "Present arms!" Every musket in the force rose with wonderful precision, for the holder of that musket had practiced the motion for two hours. Following this manoeu- ver, the embryo Grants gave an exhi- bition drill, whieh was followed by a tearful and heartbreaking parting be- tween the soldiers and their friends. Then, as the library chimes tolled the hour of eight, the captain adjusted his tie, gave the high sign to the drum and fife corps, and turning his face southward marched from view in the haze of Liberty street. And on what more appropriate street than Liberty could the warriors have marched on?

Although the pitchers were unable to work, the tutor 'an- nounced that Ferguson or Quaintance will probably hurl against Adrian Col- lege in the mid-week game Wednesday. No special preparation will be made for this game, but Lundgren hopes for a better class of opposition than fur- nished by Alma Saturday. Adrian was not on last year's schedule, and little is known of the team this year, as they have played no intercollegiate games. Gee, a newcomer to the catching staff, worked out yesterday. Labodie, the youngster who made such a favor- able impression in left field Saturday, is bothered by a bad ankle as the re- sult of his acrobatic catches. the s on e of On be- Believing that disasters on the Hu- ron river are due to a general lack of knowledge of how to resuscitate drowning persons, the Michigan Union Boat club, in cooperation with the University health service and the Eastern Michigan Edison company, has begun an active campaign to eradi- cate this evil. The campaign will also be directed against those persons who are not capable of handling water- craft. The Michigan State Board of Health is sending several thousand pamphlets which explain fully the care of drown- ing persons, and these will be distrib- uted by the Boat club. The plan to be followed by the Boat club will be the designating of every canoe or boat of its members, by a numbered flag, to be given only to those who have received some instruc- tion in handling water-craft, and in swimming. It is hoped that this will do away with those persons who have become "nuisances" on the Huron. Membership in the Boat club is not re-7 stricted to the student body; towns- people who meet the qualifications of the club, are encouraged to join. The Boat club proposes to "clean out" the river, mark dangerous places and locate portages where they are needed. Efforts are being made to compel all canoeists to carry life pre-1 servers and an extra paddle. The university health service is planning to give instructions in resus- citation to every freshman in the uni- versity next year. Officials of the health service are planning to give Saturday afternoon demonstrations of resuscitating the drowning. The na- tional government has also been asked to send tow navy life-savers here at the time of the Boat club regatta. UNIVERSITY Y. X. C. A.

The amount raised yesterday. among the students brings the total up to $1,219.50. A supper was tendered to ally mem- bers of the campaign committee last night at the Methodist church, at which time forces were combined to effect a more perfect working machine. The reports of the daily solicitation work will be made at these dinners, which will be held each night of the cam- paign. Carl Metzger, general chairman of the committee, desires all students who are willing to assist in the work to re- port to him at the Y. M. C. A. office on State street. SCARLET FEVER REPORTED ON CAMPUS; CASE IS MILD That the Detroit Boat club will sendI NS SERVED IN CUBAI isical Los . e for Oma- oday at the LATE Y COURTS as- vich nave the use of ptain Wil- tor Rowe, ting to let .e mon- Direc- Students and faculty men who are members of national guard organiza- tions, are subject to be called upon to take the field in case war is declared with Mexico. In case of an order for service in Mexico, all the companies will be recruited to their full strength, and must be prepared to mobilize and start for the Mexican border at once. Several of the medical faculty of the university are members of the medical reserve corps of the army, and are subject to call at any time. "We shall probably be called out in case the second division is ordered out," said Dr. C. B. G. deNancrede, who served through the Cuban cam- paign in the Spanish-American war with Dean V. C. Vaughan, of the medi- cal department. Drs. Reuben Peter- son and Mark Marshall are also mem- bers of the.corps, but as yet have not been engaged in active service. The roster of the local company of the Michigan national guard, contains the names of the folowing students: Edward Hubbard, '16E, Fred Novy, Jr., Clarence Wuerth and L. Armstrong, '13. Captain Arthur Warren is an in- structor in the engineering shops, and Lieutenant Conrad Lucas is employed in the electrical laboratory. L. D. David, '14L, a member of the Illinois National Guard, in speaking of the situation last night said, "I do not presume that our state would recall student members who are on such leave as mine. It seems to me that the companies are of sufficient strength to make this unnecessary. If called I should have to go." Prohibitionists Obtain 500 Signatures Over 500 students and about 20 fac- ulty members signed the national pro- hibition petition which was circulated on the campus last week. Applications Must Be Filed By May 15 Applications for admission to the combined courses, lit-medic, lit-law, etc., must be filed before May 15.

J. P. Roberts, '15E, was sent to the university hospital by the health ser- vice Sunday, suffering with scarlet fe- ver. Physicians attending Roberts say that his case is a very mild one, and that he will be able to leave the hos- pital in a week or so. University health. officers say that there is little danger of a spread of the disease, as all those exposed to the in- fection are under strict surveilance. Dr. H. H. Cummings, head of the ser- vice, says that he is convinced that Roberts contracted the disease while at home in Erie, Pennsylvania, during Easter vacation. * * * * * * * * * * * MICHIGAN AT HOME. * Wednesday, April 22-Adrian *y * College. * * Saturday, April 25-Western Re- * * serve. * Wednesday, April 29-Hillsdale * * College. * * Saturday, May 2-Case Scientific * * School. * * Thursday, May 7-Syracuse Uni- * * versity. * * Saturday, May 9-Syracuse Uni- * * versity. * Wednesday,May 13-Cornell Uni- * * versity. * * (Eastern Trip May 16.23) * Friday, May 29-Michigan Agri- * * cultural College. * * Saturday, May 30-Michigan Ag- * * ricultural College. * * Friday,June 5-Notre Dame Uni- * * versity. * * Saturday, June 6, Notre Dame * * University. * * Saturday, June 13-Alumni * * game. * * Tuesday, June 23-University of * * Pennsylvania. *f * Wednesday, June 24-Universi- * * ty of Pennsylvania. * * * * * * * * * * * * Boat club regatta and carnival, sched- uled for May 29 and 30, for a special exhibition race, is now practically as- sured.
