The case against A. C. Hetler, '15E,
the studentaarrested last Saturday
night for egging the jail, was dismiss-
ed, another charge being immediately
preferred against him. This was ne-
cessitated by a technical mistake, for
he was arrested for breaking a city or-

rest him under a state law. His case
will come up before Judge Ritchie next

SYMPATHY FROM DEAN EFFINGER
The body of Alfred Lindner, '16,
whose death occurred early yesterday
morning at the university hospital,
was sent to his home at Buffalo, N. Y.,
yesterday afternoon. His father, who
has been with him since his removal
to the hospital, and his roommate,
Richard Girven, accompanied the body.
Dean J. R. Effinger, who visited
Lindner's father yesterday, said, "It
was a sad case, but I have been im-
pressed by the spirit shown by the
students of all classes who volunteer-
ed to assist in the nursing. Everybody
seemed willing and anxious to help."
The fresman literary class, of which
Lindner was a member, decided yes-
terday to send flowers as a mark of
their sympathy.
The death, coming directly after a
day of rapid improvement, was the
climax of a remarkable battle for
Slife which has been raging for nearly
three weeks.
During the latter part of his illness,
Lindner was perfectly conscious of all
that was taking place around him,
being well aware of his condition, and
that there was no hope for him to re-
cover.
His father, the physician and nurse,
were the only ones present when he
died. His two brothers, who had been
with him previously, were unable to
be there.

held next spring at the Michigan Nor-
mal College. Michigan's representa-
tive last year, Percival Blanchard, '14,
won the national contest.
It is expected that the following tes-
timonials will be given: in the state'
contest, $75.00 and $50.00 for first and
second honors, respectively; and in
the national contest $100.00 and $50.00
for the two highest places.
Dean. Guthe Inspects State Colleges.
Dean Guthe, of the graduate depart-
ment, left yesterday for a week's
inspection of graduate departments in
several state universities. Dean Guthe
is espcially interested in the support
given the department in the different
universities which have a heavier
graduate enrollment than Michigan.
He will visit the Universities of Chica-
go, Illinois, Wisconsin and Iowa.
75 Couples Attend Wright Party.
Seventy-five couples attended the
first party at the Union last night giv-
en by the Wright saxophone trio. There

arrangements.

done by that department, will proba-
bly be out in a few weeks. A long de-

CAPTAINOFCC.CC.
Represented Michigan in Half Mile a
Eastern Intercollegiate
Last Year.
FOUR MILE RACE CLOSES SEASON.
At a meeting of the "C" men of the
cross country team last night Harry
E. Brown, '14E, was elected captain
for next year to succeed Raymond C.
Haimbaugh, '13. Brown is a well-
known member of the Varsity track
squad, and one of the rnen who repre-
sented Michigan in the half mile run
at the intercollegiates last year. The
other officers elected were R. C.-Haim-
baugh, president, H. C. Carver, treas-
urer, and Kenneth Young, secretary.
The directors elected were R. A. Allen,
A. S. Chapero and F. R. Manahan.

finished first, G. V. Lynch second, H.

TOM MAJOR FLEES FROM CITY.
Police Fail to Apprehend Eccentric
Novelist for Distributing Circulars
After a baffling search instituted by
the police department since Monday
to apprehend Toh Major for distrib-
uting circulars said to be of a suggest-
ive nature on the campus and in that
vicinity, the police believe that he has
sought refuge in flight from the city.
They placed a close espionage on
Tom's favorite haunts in this city, but
the eccentric novelist, and man of
many cognomens proved too wily to be
entrapped, and eluded the vigilanceof
the officers.
It is believed that Major was tipped
off to the police's activity in his behalf
by well-meaning friends, and after put-
ting the ability of the police depart-
ment to a fair test to locate him, he
left before Ann Arbor became too
warm for his further sojourn.
JUNIOR LITS FEATURE OLD
NEW ENGLAND AT DANCE.
A cigar store Indian labelled as one
of the original settlers of New Eng-
land, a Plymouth Rock chicken, and
the Mayflower-not the ship however-
were features of the junior lit New
England dance held last evening in
Barbour gymnasium. Seventy-five
couples were present and Prof and
Mrs. J. A. C. Hildner, acted as chap-
erones.
WORK ON MICHIGANENSIAN
IS PROGRESSING RAPIDLY.
This year's Michiganensian is pro-
gressing remarkably 'well according
to the year book editors. The work
is much farther advanced than at this
time last winter, in regard to both the
editorial and the business sides of it,
and the outlook is exceedingly bright
for putting out an unusually fine book.
A number of artists are hard at work
on the various heads which have been
assigned, and almost all the advertis-
ing contracts are in.
Copy in the fraternity section of the
book must be in by 6:00 o'clock to-
night, so all organizations of that
charactei which have not seen to this
should do so at once. The only crit-
icism that editor Newhall has to make
of the way things are going is that
the seniors are slower than usual in
getting their pictures taken for the
book. The pictures should be taken
or at least dates should be made with
the photographer at once.
FIRST NUMBER OF TECHNIC
TO APPEAR DECEMBER 1.
The first number of the Michigan
Technic for the year will be distrib-
uted on December 1. The book will
contain a survey of the work of Prof.
H. E. Riggs, the new head of the civil
engineering department, written by
Prof. C. T. Johnson. There will also
be an article on "Up-to-Date Photogra-
phy" by Ward Davidson, '13E. The
general make-up of the' magazine this
year will be much the same as last.

CATHOLIC STUDENTS SMOKER
SETS NEW ATTENDANCE RECORD

Student's club in St. Thomas hall last
night brought out more than 300 stu-
dents, and inaugurates a new record in
attendance
The next event planned by the club
is a dance to be held on Thanksgiving,
and Fischer's orchestra will provide
musical repertoire. Tickets for the
dance may be secured from C. Harold

FORESTRY FACULTY RETURN
FROM M IICHIIGAN CONVENTION
in
I
Professors Filibert Roth, 6. L. Spon-
sler, P. S. Lovejoy, and Mr. L. J. Young
of the forestry faculty and H. Pottin-
ger, president of the forestry club re-
turned to Ann Arbor yesterday from
the annual convention of the Michigan
State Forestry association which was
held Wednesday and Thursday in Sag-
inaw. All of the men took an active
part in the business and discussions of
the convention. Prof. Lovejoy was
elected secretary of the association
and Michigan will be further repre-
sented in the administration by the
choice of Regent Junius K. Beal as
one of the directors.
Prof. Roth tooksoccasion to make
clear his stand in the little controver-
sy he has had with Chief Moore of the
United States weather bureau, There
seems to be a difference of opinion'
as to whether or not forest growth
tends to prevent ,floods and washouts.
The great majority of scientists are of
the opinion that such growth does in
a great measure help to prevent floods
while it seems that a few scientists and
a number of politicians hold that it
does not. Chief Moore has taken this
latter view and has had some litera-
ture published and sent out to the va-
rious . weather stations. Prof. Roth
simply stated his opinion and he let it
be thoroughly known that it did not
agree with Chief Moore's.
OPROCLAIMS ANNUAL
THANKSGIVING DAY
The formal proclamation announc-
ing the annual day of thanksgiving has
been issued by Governor Chase S. Os-
born and is ad follows:'
"Another year has been added to the
golden scroll of Michigan. Our people
have been recipients of God's bounty,
His nercy and His love. The state has
been spared famine and pestilence.
There has been a wholesome awaken-.
ing of public conscience. Civic ideals
were never clearer and higher. Our
people have an increased reverence
for the laws of God and man. Every
fibre of heart and head thrills with
gratefulness to the Divine Father.
"Therefore, I, Chase S. Osbori, gov-
ernor of Michigan, for the people of
this state, having in mind the mani-
fold blessings of God, do proclaim
Thursday the twenty-eighth day of
November as a day of feasting 'and
prayer and thanksgiving to ,God for
His goodness, His protection and His'
direction,"
Verein Now Has Bulletin Board.

board for the convenience of its mem-
bers. All meetings, announcements,
and other news of interest to the so-
ciety will be posted here, and the
members are requested to watch it
closely. The board is situated in the
south end of the rear corridor in Uni-
versity hall just across from room

COACH DOUGLAS WILL REMAIN
HERE DURING WINTER MONTHS
The closing of the interclass foot-
ball series does not necessarily mean
the end of Coach Douglas' work for the
year. As long as the soccer game is
played he will be in full charge, and it
is not likely that the season will close
before the latter part of December or
at least until snow prevents the con-
tinuance of the sport, During the
winter months Douglas will take the
class - basketball management under'
his wing and organize the various de-
n"rtment hockey teams.
