To prove that Michigan has the best
record in athletics of any college in
the west or south, is one of the inter-
esing functions undertaken by What's
What at Michigan, the new campus
publication which goes on sale this
morning. The official records of the
Athletic Association, giving the scores
of all contests in which Michigan.
teams have ever competed, are printed
in full, proving beyond doubt that the
Wolverines have earned practically
the best all-time, all-around athletic
record of any school in the country.
Under the captions of the various
colleges with whom Varsity teams
have competed, are given Michigan's
exact standings with regard to her re-,
spective opponents. These compara-
tive records are exhaustive and devel-
op such interesting information as the
fact that Michigan has it "on" Illinois
and Chicago in both football and base-
ball, as well as in other branches of
sport. Nearly one-half of the 136 pag-
es of What's What is devoted to athlet-
ic "dope," including an all-time Mich-
igan eleven selected expressly for the
publication by Coach Yost.
A special article on the Conference
is included in the athletic section of
the book, together with such features
as the change in football rules for
1912, Varsity football and baseball
captains from 1865 to 1913, and an ex-
planation of the blanket tax regula-
tions. The reviews of the various sea-
sons in sport were written by Loren
Robinson, '13. The cover of the book-
let is in blue and orange with a cut of
the 1912 Varsity football squad in the
center.
While a large part of the contents of
What's What is devoted to athletics,
many other matters of interest to col-
lege people are ' included. Part one
deals with the history and present ad-
ministration of the University, includ-
ing notes and statistics on colleges.
and universities. The third chapter
treats of student affairs, including an
article on the over-organization of the
campus, by Frank Pennell, a digest of
the uniform class constitution, and
statistics on campus organizations,
fraternities and sororities, and coed-
ucation.

Mass meetings " in University Hall
are a thing of the past. With the open-
ing of the gridiron season, only two
days away, the Athletic Association
decided to do away with the rally in
the big hall that has done duty for so
many years and try a new stunt. It
is planned to have the mass meeting
at Ferry field just before the whistle
is blown in the Case game.
While the details of the new scheme
have not been perfected, the manage-
ment favors the students assembling
about an hour before the contest.
There will be speeches°1nd songs as
well as the yells to instill a little "pep
into rooters before the team comes on
the field. The program has not yet
been completed but it is expected that
'it will be arranged today.
With the new blanket tax, every
student has admittance to the field and
the fact that the meeting is held be-
hindr the gates will bar no one. The
open air mass meeting is ofncourse
rather of an experiment. It will be
tried and if it works with any degree
of success, it will probably be used
during this season. Since the univer-
sity has grown beyond .the seating ca-
pacity of University Hall, a mass meet-
ing in the building has always been a
source of worry to the officials. While
the building is perfectly safe, it is nec-
essary to crowd the exits and aisles if
everyone is °to .be accommodated and
is rather risky. When the new audi-
torium is completed it could be used
for a function of this kind and it may
be that it will be utilized. However,
for the present the authorities deem
it advisable to forge the oldtime pleas-
ures of a rouser in "U" Hall and try
the open air.
FIRST PARTY FOR FRESHMEN
WOMEN WILL BE HELD FRIDAY
The first of the class parties for
freshmen women of all departments
will be held at Barbour gymnasium,
Friday afternoon at four. The pur-
pose of the party is threefold; Mrs.
M. B. Jordan, dean of women will de-
liver a general talk to the women,
elections for the freshmen social com-
mittee wil be made, and the women .of
the various departments will be given
the opportunity of meeting one an-
other. After the business of -the meet-
ing is concluded refreshments and
dancing will figure on the program.
Mrs. Harry B. Hutchins and Mrs. John
R. Effinger will act as chaperons.
NEW COURSE IN ECONOMICS
OMITTED IN LIT BULLETIN.
Course 3 in Political Economy which
was omitted from the literary an-
nouncement by mistake, will be given
by Dr. Carl Parry on Tuesday and
Thursday at 9 o'clock in room 102 of
the economics building.
This course is an exposition, histor-
ical and critical, of the modern social-
ist movement, with special reference
to its economic and sociological doc-
trines and their development. It must
be preceded by course 1.
UNION PLANS TO
BOOST MEMBERSHIP
Nearly a Hundred Men will Campaign
Systematically for New
Members.
CAMPAIGN STARTS NEXT WEEK.
Plans for the annual Michigan Un-
ion house-to-house membership cam-
paign have been practically completed
by General Chairman Maurice Toulme,
'14L, of the membership committee.
For this campaign the city has been
divided into nine districts 'over which
the following nine chairmen will have
supervision; Morton R. Hunter, '13E;
Edward T. Lazear, '13E; J. A. Otto,
'13E; R. C. Spinning, '13; Walter
Staebler,''13; and Henry Cope, 'i3E.
"Cam" Trible, '13, has charge of the
canvass in the fraternities.
The actual campaign will take place
Wednesday and Thursday evenings of
next week. Each, sub-chairman will
have ten men to solicit in his particu-
lar district, and for the purpose of in-
forming all comimtteemen concerning
their duties, a smoker will' be held
the Tuesday evening preceding the
campaign. All members of committees
are expected to be present on this
occasion to receive books and litera-
ture for canvassing.
A meeting of all sub-chairmen of the
membership committee has been called
for Sunday afternoon at the Union at
4 o'clock. It will be necessary that
all sub-chairmen have their committee
members chosen by that time.
Although Michigan Union member-
ship figures have reached a record
high-water mark already this year, it
s hoped that the general canvass plan-
ned by the committee will add four
or five hundred names to the present
enrollment.
WYVERN AIDS DEAN JORDAN
IN PLACING NEW STUDENTS.
About 200 first year women have en-
rolled up to the present time, and
practically all of them have been car-
ed for in the sororities, league, or ap-
proved houses. Dean Myra B. Jordan
has been greatly assisted this year, by
members of the Wyvern, an honorary
junior society, established last year
for the purpose of. assisting the new
women students in all posible ways.

night, two of the student bodies, the
Michigan Union and the Student Coun-
cil had held meetings to take action
in the matter and lend the support of
the upper classmen in helping the fac-
ulty suppress the inter-class fights.
Both bodies held their meetings yes-
terday and although there was little
time for them to assemble and take
any measures upon last night's affair,.
steps will be taken to prevent a recur-
rence this evening.
The council took a decided stand
against all'° the hazing methods. At
their meeting a resolution was passed
asking the upper classmen to come to
the rescue and help the council and
the faculty. The council stated that
its views coincided in every respect
with the rules laid down and that all
in its power would be done to stop
all demonstrations other than those
permitted by the university officials.
The board of directors of the Michi-
gan Union met last night and added
its weight to the fast-growing senti-
ment against the affairs of the last few
evenings. The action was precipita-

UNION UNABLE TO PLACE ALL
STUDENTS ASKING ,FOR WORK
In an effort to secure positions for1
all students desiring work, the employ-
ment committee of the Michigan Un-
ion will canvass the city at once. A
meeting of the committee, of which
Howard Ford, '13, is chairman, has
been called for this afternoon at 5
o'clock at the Union.
Some trouble has been experienced
so far this fall in providing jobs for all
men applying at the Union, but it is
hoped that by a systematic canvass,
all applicants can soon be furnished
with work.
UNION HOLDS OPENING
MEN'S RECEPTION TONIGHT
Open house privileges will be in
order tonight at the Michigan Union,
on the occasion of the opening recep-
tion for all Michigan men. "Eddie"
Saier, '13, will be the chief hand-shak-
er of a large reception committee, and
"Ike" Fischer's orchestra will be on
hand for a return fall engagement.
Members of the faculty have been
invited to be present this evening. The
festivities will begin at 8 o'clock, and
'refreshments will be served later in
the evening. All freshmen will be
made welcome.
