TO DECIDE MATTER TODAY;MEMBERSHIP IS NOW 1740;
MIS HU BARI) LIKES MICHIGIN.
Daughter of East AuroraILPhilosop~er
Preparing to Ean Livelihood.
One of the most interesting members
of this year's freshman class is Mliri-
am Hubbard, daughter of Elbert Hub-
bard, the well-known writer and phil-
osopher.
Miss Hubbard has come all the way
from East Aurora, N. Y., to enter Mich-
igan, because, as she says, she and
her father both believe that this uni-
versity is the best institution of its
kind in the country. They approve of
Michigan's democracy, and her policy
of breaking away from the hard and
fast conventions of the East, enough
to accept on trial new and advanced
ideas.
Miss Hubbard is a staunch advocate
of co-education. To her, segregation
seems both foolish and unnatural. Shc
wonders why there should be a penalty
attached to meeting a man during the
four years in college when it is per-
fectly proper to entertain the same
man at home as a guest.
The daughter of "Fra's" editor be-
lieves equal suffrage is fundamental
to the growth of the nation, inasmuch
as the girls of today will be the moth-
ers of the next generation. While at
Michigan Miss Hubbard intends to
prepare herself for earning a liveli-
hood..

Argued That, If Men Cannot Vote for
Women's Officers, Latter Can-
not Claim Ballot*
Whether or not the women of the
University of Michigan will have equal
suffrage rights with the men at the
coming Varsity managerial elections of
Saturday, is a question which may be
decided in the negative at a confer-
ence today between Director Bartelme
of the Athletic association, and Dean
Myra B. Jordan, representing the wom-
en.
Under the new blanket tax system
of supporting athletics, all students
become, on payment of their $5.00
athletic fee, members of the associa-
tion. Inasmuch as only $2.00 of the
fee paid by women goes to the support
of men's athletics while the remain-
ing $3.00 goes toward the support of
women's athletics, a question as to
whether women should have
equal suffrage rights with the men in
elections which affect men's athletics
only has been raised upon the cam-
pus.
An argument has been advanced
that, under present conditions, the
women should not have any more to do
with election of managers for Varsity
track, baseball and football teams,
than the men should have to demand
votes in elections which pertain only
to women's athletics. Students who
have discussed the matter on the cam-
pus believe that, the matter can be
adjusted in a manner satisfactory to
all.
It is understood that at the time of
the adoption of the new system, the
women intimated through Dean Jor-
dan that they would not demand a vote
in matters pertaining to men's ath-
letics if $3.00 of their fee was turned
over to the support of women's athlet-
ics. It is with this in view, it is stat-
ed, that the conference between Direct-
or Bartelme and Dean Jordan will be
held today, in order that the question
may be settled before Saturday's elec-
tion, and confusion thus avoided.
SOCIALIST SOCIETY SPLITS
ON QUESTION OF SPEAKERS
At a meeting of the Intercollegiate
Socialist club held last evening, some
dissension arose as to whether
speakers should be sent by the society
to near-by towns to lecture on social-
ism, some of the members claiming
this to be contrary to the organiza-
tion's constitution. A special commit-
tee composed of members of both fac-
tions was chosen to decide as to
whether or not the society would di-
vide or continue in its present manner.
Previous to the discussion, officers
for the following year were elected as
follows: Melvin E. Case, secretary;
Herbert Rushbrok, recording secre-
tary; and Miss Jane Meyer, treasurer.
WILL HAVE FEATURE DANCES
FOR WOMEN'S LEAGUE PARTY
The athletic committee of the Wom-
en's league will hold its first party of
the year Friday evening at 8:00 o'clock
at Barbour gym. There will be special
feature dancing in connection with the
sports at Palmer field. All university
women are cordially invited.
DEAN COOLEY VISITS ROSE
POLYTECHNIC AND ILLINOIS
Dean Mortimer E. Cooley visited
Rose Polytechnic Institute at Terre
Haute, Ind., last Friday and the Uni-
versity of Illinois last Saturday, in
search of instructors for the engineer-
ing department. He witnessed the
football game betwen Illinois and Ill-
inois Wesleyan.
3fembers of Campaign Committee Must
Report Results at Once to
Sub-Chairmen.
With the aim of securing 500 more
members for the Michigan Union," the
Students' Campaign committee made
final preparations for the canvassing
of this city at a smoker at the Union
last evening. One hundred men were
present, and the situation and general
nature of the plan were fully explain-
ed by General Chairman Maurice Toul-
me and President Edward G. Kemp.
"When you men go out in this cam-
paign," said President Kemp, "picture,
if you can, the university without a
Michigan Union, and your work will
be so well performed that everyone
will listen to what you have to say:If
you can convey to the men whom you
meet, the idea of a great union of all
university men, your task will be easy.
Let our slogan be '2,500 members for
the Michigan Union.'"
Following a short address by Mau-
rice Toulme, the committeemen were
turned over to their respective sub-
chairmen. Membership books and Un-
ion literature were distributed.
The chairman, together with the
nine sub-chairmen, divided'the city in-
to ten districts, each of which contains
ten or more city blocks. One block,
which is to be canvassed from house
to house, was assigned to each man.
This evening at 7:00 o'clock the sub-
chairmen will meet their men at the
Union. At this time the committeemen
will check with the sub-chairmen and
will start out on the campaign work.
When the men have covered their ter-
ritory, they will telephone their re-
sults to the club-house. An individual
record of the actual work done by
each committeeman will be kept on a
large poster in the Union office. "
Tomorrow evening, the same can-
vass will be repeated in order to reach
those who are not at home tonight.
The Union membership, at a late
hour last evening, had reached the
high mark of 1740.

Lansing, visited Ann Arbor yesterday
afternoon to make an official inspec-
tion of the university.
During the summer, the governor
assisted part of the time by the Rev.
Williamson, who is one of the trustees
of Olivet College, has been making in-
spections of the different state insti-
tutions which number nearly 50. Gov-
ernor Osborn has now examined all of
these with the exception of Central
Normal College at Mt. Pleasant.
Yesterday morning was spent at
Ypsilanti, where the two officials were
shown carefully through the Normal
school. Shortly after finishing their
work there, the party motored to Ann
Arbor in the governor's automobile.
They returned by machine to Lansing
last night.

The annual tryout for the Varsity
band will be held tonight at 7:00
o'clock at McMillan hall, at which time.
all men wishing to try for positions on
the band are requested to appear with
their instruments. Enough new ma-
terial has already appeared to assure

>vhich it has had for several years.
FRESH LAWS WILL RECEIVE
ADVICE FROM DEAN BATES.
Dean H enry M. Bates will give his
annual talk to fresh laws this after-
noon at 4:00 o'clock in room B of the
Oratorical Association to Institute En-
ergetic Sales Campaign.
At the meeting of the Oratorical
board tonight the main point of dis-
cussion will be a campaign for new
members. Recently 1200 tickets were
handed over to canvassers for sale, but
as the result has not been entirely suc-
cessful, a more active policy will be
pursued.
Further arrangements will also be
made for the entertainment of Booker
T. Washington, the noted negro edu-
cator, who is to lecture next Monday
evening in University hall, under the
auspices of the Oratorical association.
A date may also be set for the election
of a new vice-president of the board, to
fill the vacancy caused by G. L. Buck's
failure to return to college this year..
MICHIGAN PROVES POPULAR
WITH MONGOLIAN STUDENTS
That Michigan is rapidly assuming
the position of one of the most cos-
mopolitan of American universities is
shown by its large enrollment of for-
eigners this year. There are now in
attendance 60 Chinese students, 12
Japanese, 12 Armenians, five from
British Africa, and others from Porto
Rico, the Philippines, Russia, Canada,
Hawaii, South Africa, Germany, Eng-
land, France and Poland. This fact is
well illustrated in one of Prof. J. L.
Markley's sections in which are 17
students representing nine nationali-
ties.
Sopjs Will Be Guests of Dean Jordan
on Friday Afternoon.
The second of the series of class
parties given by Dean Myra B. Jordan
will be held Friday afternoon at four
o'clock, in Barbour gymnasium, for
the sophomore women of all depart-
ments of the university. The most im-
portant feature of the party will be
the election of the freshman spread
committee, which has entire charge of
finances, programs, and entertain-
ment of the freshmen, at the annual
spread. The committee consists of
over twenty women.
The idea of entertaining freshmen
women originated back in 1885, when
a few upperclass women started the
custom of receiving all the college
women in one of their rooms. The
custom has never been abolished and
has grown to such proportions in the
last few years that a large committee
is now necessary to handle the affair.

Miss Addams comes to his cit

which she has advanced through n

Miss Addams is more often sp
