SOPH LITS BEGIN SOCIAL
PROGRAM WITH A SMOKER
Eighty members of the soph lit class+
were present at its initial smoker of
the year. Prof. David Friday of the
economics department spoke on both
the humorous an'd the serious side of
university life. H. L. Kennedy spoke
on the basketball prospects of the com-
ing season. "Chet" Lang, representing
the social committee, announced that
the first class dance will be given at
the Union on Dec. 4.
WILL PRESENT A
'NATIONAL NIGHT'
The Flonzaley Quartet will give the
second concert of the Choral Union
series on Monday evening, November
25, in University Haill. It is five years
since this famous quartet made its
first appearance in Ann Arbor, at the
time of its first journey of conquest to
America. It now stands as one of the
greatest chamber-music organizations
in the world, and by consistent playing
each year in Europe and America, is
constantly winning more laurels. The
personnel of the quartet remains the
same this year as before.
Temperamentally they are well fit-
ted for their work, and the fact that
they do not have to consider the finan-
cial side in working out their pro-
'grams and policies means much to
them in their art. This organization
is unique in this respect, since all the
other great quartets are made up of'
musicians who devote a large part of
their time to teaching, solo work and
various other activities.
Owing to the fact that a goodly num-
ber of general admission tickets ad-
mitting to the one concert only were
sold at the date of the Schumann-
Heink concert, there is now a limited
number of tickets available for the
Flonzaley concert and the remaining
concerts on the series, which will be
disposed of in the order of application.
When this number is exhausted, it will
be impossible to secure more tickets
of any kind, since the legal restric-
tions forbid the selling of more tick-
ets of any kind than the seating capac-
ity.

CRITICISES OX FOR I) C0O3M TT E$S1
Severe criticism made by Dr. George
11. Park in, ex-secretary of the Rhodes
scholarship fund, upon . some of the
students which America sends to the
English college does not in any way
reflect on the American students or
upon our methods of education," said
Prof. A. (. Hall yesterday. For sever-
al years while located at Miami uni-
versity, Prof. Hall was a member of
the Ohio state committee on Rhode
scholarships.
Dr. Parkin, in speaking before the
National Association of American Uni..-
versities, which is now in session at
Washington, D. C., stated that he did
not see how some of our graduates
got into Oxford and intimated that cer-
tain students were chosen because of
their personal or financial standing.
"if Dr. Parkin has been corrtctly
noled,' said Prof. tall, "his criticism
hits only the Oxford committees which
have to do with the examination ques-
tions. The papers are sent to the
United States in sealed envelopes and
are not opened until the hour of ex-
amination. After being filled out, they
are returned by re;;istered mail to
England to be graded.
"All persons who pass the examina-~
tions are equally eligible for appoint-
ment. The state committees after the
grades have been received chose one
candidate who best fills other require-
ments of the rules, but the committees
have nothing to do with the tests inl
Lat, Cieck and other subjects. If
an-one is responsible for poor stu-
dents being admitted to the college, it
is those persons at Oxford who make
cut the questions and grade the pa-
Ipers." -

Tomorrow Night.
SWORD DANCE TO BE PRODUCED.
The first of the series of "national
nights" scheduled by the Corda Fra-
tres-Cosmopolitan club will be pre-
sented before the Students Christian
association Saturday at 7:30 o'clock in
Newberry hall. The affair, which will
be one of the biggest events of the
year will be staged by the Japanese
students.
There will be six special features
in the show, including a stereopticon
lecture on the scenic beauty of Japan
by Professor S. Takahara.
The tableaux will be the most spec-
tacular feature on the program. It
will depict a warrior's farewell to his
son on his departure to the battlefield.
Commander Perry's interview with
representatives of the Strogen, and
American Japanese friendship will be
impersonated by talented artists. Jiu
jitsu by Yamada and Kanata will be
a novel attraction. A quartette, con-
sisting of Yamada, Monimatsu, Odachi,
and Konichi, will sing a few songs in
Japanese. A fencing duel has been
arranged between Yamada and Tonou-
chi, the Japanese exponents of sword
art in this city. Another feature will
be a sword dance by Tonouchi and
Morimatsu.
The opening ceremony will probably
be performed by President W. W.
Welsh, who'will sketch the general
plan of the work of the club for the'
coming year. Following the enter-'
tainment there will be a reception and
refreshments will be served. The
next number of the series is the "Chin-
ese Night," which comes two weeks
later..

Lured on by the balmy Indian sum-
mer weather, the soccer enthusiasts
continue to kick and drible the inflated
sphere well. up and down their partic-
ular section of Ferry field.
With but faint prospects of another
public contest being arranged, the soc-
cer practices have been attracting on-
ly the most ardent devotees of the game
during the past two weeks. As the
number of these does not exceed twen-
ty it is highly improbable that the
Ferry field club house will be kept
open after Thanksgiving, which is the
date that preparations have been made
to close it.
In the brief period of time that the
University of Michigan has known the
game of soccer football, it has gained
a firm hold on the affections of fifty
students who participated in its play-
ing this fall and on many who were in-
bition game between the halves of a
freshman football match. Soccer may
terested in the watching of the exhi-
from now on be considered a perma-
nent branch of Michigan athletics,
and it would not be surprising if next
spring found the university represent-
ed by a soccer eleven, contesting for
premier honors with the state colleges
that will constitute the membership of
the Michigan inter-collegiate soccer
football league.-

If Iegents Decide Favorably Society
Will llesuite' Work in
Waterman Gym.
Unwilling to wait until the board of
regents reach a decision on the peti-
tion for the encouragement of indoor
sports, followers of the arts of boxing
and fencing have engaged the services
of Major Burdette as instructor, and
have arranged with him for the use
of his private gymnasium every Wed-
nesday night, beginning next week.
During the season which lasts until
spring vacation, a regular series of
contests will be staged in both events
and as a closing climax, a boxing and
fencing tournament will be held. If
the regents pass favorably on the peti-
tion-, the club will abandon its projects
and go back Ito Waterman gymnasium
where all the facilities for the culti-
vation of its sports, such as floor space
and instruction would be furnished
free of cost. Because some may wish
to join in this movement, who were
not present when the plans were dis-
cussed and decided upon, the first
meeting of the new organization on
next Wednesday night at 7:30 in Ma-
jor Burdette's gymnasium over Wag-
ner Bros. store, will be open to all in-
terested.
Wrestling will be handled in the
same manner that it w'as last year in
the event of the petition being shelved.
Dr. May will himself arrange. a tour-
nament for the mat artists in Water-
man gym, and provide suitable tro-
phies to be competed for by the men
of the different weights. This year
the tournaments will take place in
February, a month earlier than the
same event last year, and already the
room set aside for that purpose at the
gym is crowded every afternoon by
struggling couples with the ambition
to win the championship of their
weight.
JUNIOR LITS DANCE TONIGHT.
New England.Customs to be Featured

New England, its quaintness, cus-
toms, and well known characteristics,
will feature the first junior lit dance
of the year, which will be held this ev-
ening in Barbour gym. The special
committee has worked hard to pre-
pare novelties for the occasion and
will have several surprises for the
dancers. In an endeavor to get a
larger proportion of the class out this
year than formerly the committee has
asked the men and women of the class
to come separate y.
The music will start promptly at
7:30 o'clock and dancing will lst un-
til 11:00 o'clock. "Ike" Fischer will
lead the orchestra and will feature
several appropriate numbers. The
chaperones will be Prof. and Mrs. J.
C. Hilders
Ticke s may be purchased from the
committee or at the door for 35 cents.
LOST GEOLOGY MANUSCRIPTS
FINALLY BROUGHT TO LIGHT
The writings and drawings of Dr.
Alexander Winshell, former professor
of geology in this university, which
were recently unearthed in the state
capitol at Lansing, are the property
of the Michigan Geological and Biolog-
ical Survey, and will be published in
an appropriate form.
When this work of Prof. Winshell
was first completed in the early 40's
or 50's, printing had not reached its
present stage of perfection, and the
firm which expected to publish the
manuscripts in book form refused to
do so on account of the expensefor
plates. The folios were then placed
