Recent delays have made necessary
a postponed appearance of the 1914
Michiganensian, but the management
promises the year book to the campus
by May 12, so that, unless a set-back
occurs at the last minute, the annual
will be placed on sale on swing-out
day.
The book will contain a total of 680
pages, almost exactly the number of
last year, and will be bound in the cus-
tomary morocco. Tents located on
the campus will serve as selling sta-
tions.

BANQUET TO CLOSE 1914 YEAR
California Glee Club to Sing Here on
Way to European Tour of
Two Months
The Nemesis of the 1914 Varsity
track team has been on the job. again,
and as a result, the squad alrddy suf-
fering from lack of material, takes an-
other slump. Added to the Cornell de-
feat, comes the injury to Catlett and
Ufer, and the withdrawal of Griest,
star half miler, from school.
It is said that scholastic difficulties
have forced Griest to withdraw until
next fall. Originally. a high jumper,
this versatile athlete was turned into
a half miler by Trainer Farrell, and
was a member of the Michigan quartet
at the Pittsburg relays. He was also a
substitute for the two mile four at
the Penn games.
Catlett, who it was thought had re-
covered from the leg injury received
indoors, started in the high hurdles
Saturday, and pulled a tendon just af-
ter taking the first hurdle. Ufer in-
jured his ankle Sunday, and at present
it is not known how serious it will be.
The outdoor Varsity meet will be
held Saturday, on Ferry field, and will
be an interclass struggle. Any one
eligible in studies, will be eligible to
enter this meet.
Trainer Farrell was disappointed
but not surprised at Saturday's results,
and hopes that the Varsity meet will
bring out some material that will
strengthen the squad, in its weak
spots.

Bert A. Baker, '14E, and K. Milhoss,
'17E, were breasting the rapids at the
old flour mill when their attention was
distracted by the call of passing
friends. The neglected canoe was
turned over by the current. Millhoss
could not swim, but clung to the canoe.
A passing canoeist helped him ashore.
By that time, Baker, who had been
swimming around waiting to help Mill-

lightweight, the middleweight and
heavyweight pulls. The weight limits
of each class have been set at 135, 160
and above 160 pounds, respectively.
Captains for the events will be chosen
at mass meetings next week. Fresh-
men will assemble next Wednesday at
7:00 o'clock, in the west physics lec-
ture room, and sophomores will meet
the following day at the same time
and place.
According to the system of scoring
the games, the winning class will have
to amass the majority of the 7 points.
Each of the three tug-of-war contests
will count one score, each of the three
relay -races will count one point, and
the pushball contest will add another
tally to the total. Last year the sophs
won by a score of 4 to 3, and in 1912
the second year men carried away the
long end of a 4 to 2 score, but prior to
that, the freshmen have been the most
consistent winners of the spring com-:
bats.
Three concerts, a final business meet-
ing and a banquet, make up the pro-
gram mapped out for the musical clubs
before finishing the college year.
Saturday, at 1:00 o'clock, the men
will board a special interurban car for
Jackson, where they will give a con-
cert under the auspices of the Cham-
ber of Commerce. Immediately upon
their arrival in the city they will be
given an automobile ride, following
which a dance will be held lasting the
remainder of the afternoon. The enter-
tainment will wind up with a smoker
following the concert.
On Saturday, May 23, the California
Glee club will be the guests of the lo-
cal organization. The California men
will pass through Ann Arbor on their
way to the Atlantic coast, preparatory
to a two and a half month European
tour. They carry with them a person-
nel of 27 men. A full program of en-
tertainment has been arranged for
them by Manager H. Beach Carpenter,
'14. The visitors will witness the In-
ter-scholastics, and after the concert
