LY HUNDRED J-LITS ATTEND DINNER AT UNION. rly a hundred junior lits turned the first of the series of class rs held at the Union last night. J. R. Effinger, who was the pal speaker of the evening, gave joyable talk, becoming reminis- bout some of the old days of the sity. Others called on by "Carp" nter, the toastmaster, were Jack icott, "Chink" Bond, and Bruce The musical part of the pro- was furnished by "Bill" Dieke- At the invitation of several proni- nent Detroit men Dean H. M. Bates of the law department will draft .a bill for the reformation of the probation and reform laws throughout the state. The dean will model his draft after the laws now in force in Wisconsin. The bill will be presented to the next leg- islature and the chances that it will be made a law seem to be pretty bright. "In many instances the prisons and reformatories have proven to be reg- ular educational institutions in vice for the young men and 'first offenders.' This law will be directed at young men{ who commit minor offenses, whole-, some men who have fallen for the first time and who should not be imprison- ed with old offenders, such as thugs and thieves. "Under the present system in vogue in this and most other states, when a man is brought before a police mag- istrate charged with some minor of- fense such as drunkenness, although he's young, and in court for the first time, he is sentenced to jail along with crooks of every description where evil influences may prey upon him. Fur- thermore he is disgraced in the eyes of his friends and no opportunity is given him to escape the stigma of a prison record, But under the proposed law, he would be examined carefully by the magistrate and if it appeared that he was a good, wholesome man, with no previous police court record, that he, had a desire to do better in the future, he would be released under the watch of a probation officer. "This law then, has two main fea- tures, the segregation of persons com- mitting minor offenses from those committing great ones, and second, the parole and probation feature." Governor Osborn, who was in the city Tuesday night to attend the fo- ball smoker, when asked his opinion of such law said: "It would be admirable. Our pres- ent law directed at such evils is neith- er adequate nor comprehensive enough. We now have no place where the petty offenders can be sent and not be in grave danger of coming out worse men than when they were sen- tenced." Catholic Students to Hold Party. Some of the women of the Catholic church will give an acquaintance par- ty tonight at Thomas Hall, Elizabeth St., from 8:00 to 10:00 o'clock. All of the Catholic women of the university are cordially invited to attend. Dur- ing the evening refreshments will be served and a good time for all is as- sured. VEREIN TO GIVE cialist society has engaged to speak production. The choice was announc- GERMAN COMEDY "Koepenickerstr. 120," a Light Drama by Gustav von Moser is Decided Upon. HERR C. LEIDICH GIVES TALK. "Koepenickerstr. 120," one of Gustav Moser's comedies, has been selected by the Deutscsher Verein for its annual here this winter. Although definite< dates have not yet been made with all of the desired men, many promises as well as some definite engagements as- sure the society of arranging the best series of its kind that has ever been presented in Ann Arbor. Alexander Irvine, famous author, pastor, public speaker, and soldier, has been engaged to speak Monday, De- cember 9, and Harry W. Laider, na- tional organizer of the Intercollegiate Socialist society of Yale university will speak December 18. Jack London is also expcted to speak the latter part of next month. Other men whose en- gagements are not definitely settled, are Woodbridge N. Ferris, governor- elect, and Prof. John Kennedy of the economics department of the univer- sity of Chicago. This year the society has increased 150 per cent and its work 'has grown to the extent that three study sections had to be formed. Members and their friends will dance in Barbour gym this evening at 8:00 o'clock. Tickets are 50 cents. Fresh Laws to Hold "Purity" Smoker.s "Purity" in the classroom, on the campus, in athletics and in every walk of life will be the keynote of the first fresh law smoker of the year which will be held at the Union on next Mon- day night. Dean Henry M. Bates, of1 the law department, "Eddie" Saier, "Hap" Haff and A. E. Bing will make short speeches, and music, both vocal and instrumental, will be rendered.' Cigars aid cider will be distributed. Tickets for the affair will cost 25 cents. el at the dance of the society last night in Barbour gymnasium. The play has a Berlin atmosphere, and is based on the universal theme of the city man's love for the country, and the country man's longing for the life of the towns. "Koepenickerstr. 120" has exceptional literary merit, and this, together with its light com- edy, makes it especially valuable for student production. The date has not yet been set, but the tryouts will be held at once. Pros- pects must sign up' Friday afternoon at 5:00 o'clock in room 203 University hall. The trials will be extended over about two weeks, to enable all candi- dates to have sufficient time for try- outs. The play requires an exceptionally large cast, about twenty characters being needed for the production. The parts are equally divided between men and girls. Preceding the dance, Herr C. Leid- ich, president of the Harmonie Verein, [of Detroit,delivered a lecture on "Ram- bles Through Germany," at Sarah Cas- well Angell hall before an apprecia- tive audience. The lecture was illus- trated by slides secured by the speaker in his travels in the Father- land. It was* delivered in German. Prof. Rich Testifies in Lansing. Prof. E. D. Rich of the mechanical engineering department went to Lan- sing yesterday morning to render ex- pert testimony in an engineering case in that city. He returned last night. Although the Michigan Jnion this year has, by far, the largest total mem- bership in its history, the number of faculty names on the roster is unusu- ally meagre. On4y 164 instructors and' university officers have joined to date, which number is considered an unsat- isfactory showing inasmuch as there are over 500 members of the Michigan faculty.. Of the 164 teachers who are affiliated with the Union this year, 134 have tak- en out yearly membership cards, 24 are life members, and six are partici- pating life members. In view of the strong general support given to the Michigan Union by the faculty, it is considered surprising that only one- third of this body has entered into ac- tive participation in Union affairs. 1 By departments, the" literary college1 can claim the largest faculty member- ship in the Union, with the engineer- ing and law departments trailing along as rather poor seconds. This is much1 the same order in which student mem- bership figures by departments rank. I'NIO MEMBERSHIP LISTS NOW EXCEED THE 2,300 1IARK The new additions to the Michigant Union membership list are being made daily. Last evening the record book showed 2,301 members for the college year 1912-'13. Two weeks ago the Un- ion management was of the. opiniont that the 2,300 mark would not be reached this year, but now all inter- ested in Union affairs are looking ahead to still greater gains. The slo- gan, at the present time, is "2,500." The total membership of the Union last year was 1270. Today, the Mich- igan Union has 89 life members, 220 participating life members, and 2,301 regulars. The grand total, 2,610, is more than twice the number of any previous year. Japanese Students to Present Sketches "Japanese Night" is the first of the series of national nights to be present- ed this fall under the auspices of the Corda Fratres-Cosmopolitan club. The affair will be staged in Newberry hall. Saturday evening, and the actors will be Japanese students who will present sketches depicting the quaint life of the Flowery Kingdom. Rev. Knepper to Give Second Lecture. Rev. George W. Knepper will give his second lecture on South America this afternoon at 4:10 o'clock in the rooms of the Bible Chair building at 444 South State street. This lecture will deal especially with the people of South America. These lectures are given for the student body and all stu- dents are urged to be present as well as other people who are interested. Graduate Writes for Detroit Paper. Lee A.
