Following the much discussed ques- tIn of a proper solution to the prob- z of admitting members of the ath- letic association to indoor track meets, the association has devised a plan, ap- proved by the, student council, which will give every member an equal chance to see the same number of m ets to be held this season in Water- man gymnasium. The action was nec- e- ary because the number of ticket h ders excqeds the seating ca- pikity of the gym by sev- e ' thousand. To attempt to accom- mi date all members at each meet w uld be impracticable, and by' the new arrangement, under the blanket system, every student will be giv- an equal chance. 'he following arrangement will be ollowed in the distribution of tickets fog the indoor meets of the season of ILL HEALTH FORCES HIGH JUL'PER TO LEAVE SCHOOL Elwood Griest, '14, Suffers Breakdown As Result of Overwork Last Semester. Michigan's track team has been de- prived of the services of Elwood Griest, '14, of Lititz, Pa., who has been obliged to leave the university owing to a gen- eral breakdown in health. Griest's specialty was the high jump, in which he was a second only to Sargent, and in which event he had a consistent mark of five feet ten inches. Though Griest's work was not at all phenom- inal last year, he was depended on to win points for Michigan in the dual meets this season, and his loss will be keenly felt. Griest carried 19 hours of work last semester, and filled an assistant's po- sition in Zoology in addition to doing a great deal of laboratory work. He was also an active member of the Adelphi society. Griest's friends state that the strain of college work, to-- gether with some outside work whict. he pursued, was responsible for hit ill-health.

INFORMATION LEADS TO RAID, Efforts of the police department to of training, the track athletes have their eyes fastened on the first of the indoor meets which is scheduled for this Saturday evening. Reparts have not yet beeen received from the uni- versity confirming the eligibility of all the men, but Trainer Farrell an- nounced that he expected to suffer lit- tle if any from that source. In the sprints, the names of Bond and Seward stand out from the rest. Lapsley, who was coming along with good speed earlier in the season has received a temporary set-back in the way of a loosenen muscle. Farrell is now working with Green, of the last year all fresh team, who may be de- veloped to fill the vacancy in the hur- dles. Jansen, a candidate last year for the Varsity in the hurdles, was taken hold of by Trainer Farrell, and has shown enough speed in the quart- er, to loom strong for a place on the mile relay team. Haff, Baier and Craig complete the tally of the prob- able mile relay quartet, and Michi- gan 's representatives in the quarter. In the -half mile, the trainer looks principally to Carver and Brown. Smith is the only candidate that has shown much promise in the mile, al- though the fresh squad of last year may give him a running mate in Gray, who has some good marks to.his cred- it. Heinie Haimbaugh reigned in soli- tary grandeur over Michigan's chances in the two mile race. One thing Farrell is certain of, and that is the impossibility of finding the material to compose both two-mile andfour-mile relay teams for the rea- son that tjhe same men would have to be used in either case. Kohler can be expected to better even than last year with the shot, and it would not surprise those who have watch him perform if he should break the Water- man gym record before this year's in- door meets are history. Cole and Smith are being taught form by Far- rell and can be counted upon to win points in the dual meets. No hope is seen for Michigan in the pole-vault, as far as placing in the Eastern inter- collegiates, but Cook, Van Kammen, and Daskem are touching eleven feet. The list of indoor events ends with the high jump, ably taken carq of by Surgent who can leap six feet with tase, and who is looked to better his previous records under the coaching of Trainer Farrell. department in this university, will be' observed tomorrow. The usual date for this celebration, in previous years, - has been February 22, but as this date falls on Saturday this year, the com- mittee in charge of the exercises has moved the day ahead to the 19th. Tle custom of observing Founder's Day has become an annual event in the medical calendar. The object is to bring the faculty and students to- gether in such a way as to develop de- partmental spirit, and to foster the feeling of fellowship which results from the personal acquaintance of those engaged in the same work. Dr. Abraham Jacobi, '82M, of New York City, and Dr. W. J. Herrington, of Bad Axe, Mich., will de- liver the principal addresses dur- ing the day. Dr. Jacobi stands today as one of the foremost figures in medicine in this country. Because of his wide experience in the medical world, he has been made the president of the American Medical association. Dr. Jacobi was given the L.L.D. degree by Michigan in 1898. Dr. Herrington is a physician of extraordinary ability and he has been asked to come back to deliver the Foun'der's Day address. The program will be opened by Dr. Jacobi who will lecture before Dr. Vaughan's class in hygiene at 10:00 a. m. in the west amphitheater of the medical building. Dr. Herrington will deliver the Founder's Day address at 4:00 o'clock in the afternoon in Sarah Caswell Angell Hall. He will speak on the subject of the "Country Doctor." At 8:00 o'clock in the evening, Dr. Jacobi will address a joint meeting of the Ann Arbor Medical club and the medical department in Sarah Caswell Angell Hall on "What are doctors good for?" Following the evening program, a; reception will be given under the aus- pices of the Ann Arbor medical club to members of the faculty, medical' students, and invited guests. by a vote of 22 to "Bubbles" Patterson election. PUCKSTERS STAGE, DOUBLE SESSION 13. Councilman supervised the M. caps. This step was decided upon at a meeting of the board of directors of the athletic association held yester- day afternoon The design of the in- signia on the caps will be similar to those given in recognition of other athletic service with a slight differ- ence of crossed tennis racquets inter- woven with the U. of M.{ A matter relative to some sort of award for baseball players who make the Varsity squad, but do not receive the baseball "M," was also discussed. It is planned if possible to give the baseball men insignia in reward for their service similar to the "R" of football and the "A. M. A." of track. Heretofore the men who have not been of regular "M" caliber in baseball have gone without any recognition, not- withstanding that they have rendered valuable service to the Varsity base- ball team. The matter was left open until the arrival of Branch Rickey, baseball coach, in order that his ideas on the subject might be obtained., J Laws Elect Grisinore Councilman. G. C. Grisinore, '14L, was elected Junior Law councilman yesterday af- ternoon. He defeated Wm. J. Laidlau 1 7 a C a 1 and baseball have issued a call for all sophomores who wish to try out for the office of assistant manager in these respective sports, and for all juniors who wish to compete for the position of varsity managers in these lines for the season of 1914. Men of either the junior or sophomore classes who de- sire to compete under the new ruling must leave their names at the athlet- ic association office before next Tues- day. All candidates who wish to try out for track managerships will ad- dress their applications to Don Den- nison, '13, and those for baseball to V. L. McCarthy, '13L. The new competitive system aims to do away with the petty politics that are prevalent in campus elections. The new plan will base the selection on merit alone. Inasmuch as this -is the first opportunity offered for the working out of the plan, at this time both sophomores and juniors must re- port at the same time for competition. The juniors will compete directly for the managership in either track or baseball, and of those who report, two will be selected by the committee in charge of that sport, to run for the po- sition of manager at the election next October. The sophomores, at this time, will try out for -the assistant managerships. From the nunber of sophomores who compete, two will be chosen by a com. mittee, composed of men in charge of that particular sport, to run, in their junior year, for the office of assistant manager. The man, thus elected as- sistant manager by the members of the association, will automatically become Varsity manager in his senior year. The plan combines the merit method and still does not take from the mem- bers of the association the right of their franchise to vote for the final selection. Scienee -Team Defeats.

Sunday morning, after they had been seen leaving the building. These men have since been released, no charge having been made, and their case has been completely dropped by both the city and county officials. As a result of the information which they were able to give the police, the club-rooms were raided yesterday af- ternoon, and the equipment, consisting of liquor and gambling devices, confis- cated. Herbert Case, colored, the pro- prietor of the place, has long been un- der police surveillance, on suspicion of breaking the liquor laws and of ad- mitting white pepple to the rooms, against orders. In their testimony given yesterday in Prosecutor Burke's offices, the stu- dents involved were able to defend their actions to the satisfaction of the police. They went down-town near to midnight on Saturday and entered the place out of curiosity. No charge of drunkenness was made, and the men were further able to satisfy the police that they at no time had any money in their possession for gambling purposes. This is not the first time that the liuron club has been in trouble with the authorities. It has become the custom with the local police depart- ment to raid the place periodically be- cause of the evident inability of its management to obey the law. This is the first time that any students have been mixed up in the clean-out. Hockeyites made up for lost time last night and staged two games at Weinberg's abbreviated rink. The teams skating for honors were the lits vs. science, and the laws vs. engineers. In the first contest the scientists were able to drive the puck home three times while the lits located the wire cage only once. The second game was called after 18 minutes of play on account of the lights being turned off at 10:00 o'clock.

The recent state democratic conven- tion nominated William A. Comstock of Alpena and Frank H. Begole of Marquette for regents ci. '*a. niver- sity of Michigan. Mr. Comstocx is now serving as regent, having been appointed by Governor W. N. Ferris to fill the vacancy on the board caused by the death of Regent Grant. He is a graduate of the university receiving a degree from the literary department in 1899. Mr. Begole is prominent in Mar- quette industries and is president of the Lake Shore Engine Works. He is the nephew of the late J. W. Begole who was elected governor of Michi- gan in 1882. Cabinet Club Elects Semester Officers. The Cabinet club, a sectional organ- ization comprised of men from the na- tional capitol, elected the following of- ficers at a meeting held for that pur- pose Sunday. The men will hold office during this semester. President Thos. C. Rathbone, '13E; vice-president, F. L. Weaver, '13E; secretary, Harry S. Estler, '13E; and treasurer, Theodore M. Robie, '14E. Lit-Social Club Dance Well Attended. About 50 couples attended the regu- lar dance given by the Lit-Social club last evening at Grangers. An increase in the number of attendants over those present at the last function was notice- able. t t ti 1 t e t e s] t; b 18 minutes, the laws had scored twice to the engineers once. The lighting was por and frequeui halts were necessary to wait for the uncertain current to produce enough light for the players to see the rub-, ber. During the first half of the lit-sci- ence contest the latter were able to advance the puck more consistently than their opponents and the period ended with the long end of a 2 to 1 score on their side of the ledger. In the second period the lits took a great brace and played at par with the sci- entists, each team annexing one digit to their account. The feature of the battle was the phenomenal stops of Barnum at goal for the lits. The lengthy protector of the coveted cage was able to stop the puck when a goal seemed inevitable. Warrel formerly a member of the Houghton team that won the Ameri- can championship played a wonderful game at point for the science aggre- gation, and Buerile at rover kept the lits guessing at all times to follow his advances. Hunting, playing left wing for the literary men, received a bad blow in the nose from the stick of one of his opponents and was replaced by Spring, The injury is not considered serious. In the second game Wharton played the stellar game for the laws, holding lown the rover job. Ratz at right wing, .nd Edwards at rover were the most consistent dodgers for the engineers. The rest of this contest will be played >ff Thursday afternoon at 4:15 o'clock. Today the lits will meet the laws at 4:15 o'clock and the science team will ace the engineers at 7:30. Tomorrow State Solons to Inspect University. Representatives of the state legis- lature will visit Ann Arbor Thursday and Friday to make the annual inspec- tion tour of the university. To assist the committee in its work here Pres. Harry B. Hutchins has notified the committee in charge, of the national Alpha Delta Phi convention that he cannot preside as chairman of the con- vention which is to be held in Madi- son, Wisconsin, the last of the week.

From 7:30 o'clock last night to 1:45 o'clock this morning the governing body of the university was passing upon routine matters in one of the longest sessions in its history. The report of the goard in control of athletics for the year 1911-12 was received and accepted.
