The 11th annual production of the
Deutscher Verein, "Der Professor Als
Kaufmann," will be presented tonight
in Sarah Caswell Angell hall. The
play is a four act farce comedy, deal-
ing with modern German life. The
title, translated freely into English
would read, "The Professor Becomes
a Merchant," and shows how a univer-
sity professor can make himself ridic-
ulous upon trying to undertake duties
which he is unable to comprehend.
The author, Gustav Von Moser, is a
successful German dramatist in Ber-
lin, where his plays were received with
enthusiasm. He was also the author
of the play presented last year by the
Deutscher Verin, "Koepernicker-
strasse 120."
F. B. Wahr, of the German depart-
ment, has general charge of the play.
The business manager is F. F. Kolbe,

VARSITY CATCHER CALLED
HOME BY FATHER'S DEATH
Rippler, Mainstay Behind Bat, Will Be
Out of Game Saturday; Baer
May Receive
Hippler, the catcher who has been
doing the major portion of the back-
stop work for the Wolverine diamond
men during the season thus far, was
called to his home in Geneseo, Ill., yes-
terday morning by the death of his
father. Hippler, senior law, received
the telegram early yesterday morning
and left immediately.
If his injured digit is in shape by
Saturday, Baer will do the backstop
work for Michigan on Saturday against
Western Reserve. If the veteran, who
has not yet been able to participate in
a single game thus far, is not able to
get into the fray, the task of handling
Baribeau's shoots will probably fall
on Mattson, the catcher who took the
southern trip. There is also a possi-
bility that Gee, a veteran class team
man who has been working out under
Lundgren, will get a chance with the
big fellows.
NEW BOOK TELLS HISTORY
OF MENORAH ORGANIZATION
"The Menorah Movement: For the
Study and Advancement of Jewish
Culture and Ideals" is the subject of,
a report published by the Intercolle-

Rosenstein, '15L, president of the local
chapter, has copies for free distribu-

The practice yesterday was given up
entirely to looking over the infielders
and outfielders, and getting a line up-
on their batting eyes. The coach will
not attempt to eliminate the excess of
battery material until he has the re-
mainder of the berths settled.
On the field the freshmen looked
much better than upon previous occas-
ions, and the final selections are sure
to include some real baseballers for
Lavans to train for next year's Varsi-
ty. The youngsters have had little
chance to show their ability with the
stick, but in the little swatting they
have engaged in, they have shown
skill in locating the sphere.
Dean Effinger to Explain Cercle Play
Dean J. R. Effinger, of the literary
department, will deliver a lecture on
the annual Cercle Francais play "L'
