Chances for the class of 1916 to win
LO four-cornered Varsity track meet,'
be staged in Waterman gymnasium
morrow evening, have been consid-
ably lessened by the announcement
f the entry list,, revised on a basis of
Igibility. The final entries lack the
ames of eight freshmen aspirants be-
,use of deficiencies in their scholas-
e records for last semester.
Phelps and Quail, weight men, Es-
ry, Shulkin and C. B. Smith, middle
stance runners, and Murphy and
ay, specialists in the mile, have been
clared ineligible by the faculty and
ill not be allowed to compete in the
arsity meet tomorrow evening. Sev-
al of these men were regarded as
ire point winners on the basis of their
rformances in the preliminary and
esh soph meet, and their absence
ill be keenly felt by the members of
e verdant class.
The same list which points out the
eakening of the freshmen team,
ows that few, if any, of the senior,

Sleuthing for jobs to .pass away the

immer, and for more permanent lo-
tions for graduates, the University
M. C. A. has written Boards of Com-
erce in all of the larger cities in this
d neighboring states for information

ry one, in order to secure publicity
r the request, and to find names of
ncerns who are likely to need men.
)wever, many definite offers of sum-
er as well as more permanent work
ye been received. One is the offer
a position as assistant manager of
West Virginia mining company, open
an engineer.
Further letters will be sent out by
e association to the firms whose ad-
esses have been furnished, and it is
pected that, by this means, many
>re students, than ever before, will

Interest in the wrestling tournament
reached the high water mark yester-
day afternoon, when Doyle, last year's
light-weight champion was dead-lock-
ed by Lewis for 30 minutes, and Morris
won a hotly contested fall from Rei-
mann, making himself eligible for
heavy-weight semi-finals on Saturday.
The draw in the light-weight match
will be settled next .Tuesday, the win-
ner to meet Kendrick in the first semi-
Anal.
No wrestling was done in the 145
pound class because of the defection
of Voorheis who was scheduled to fight
out a previous draw with Tonouchi.
The 158 pound grapplers were given
a rest to collect strength for the semi-
finals to begin tomorrow.
Wrestling bouts have been decided
every Tuesday, Thursday, and Satur-
day afternoon, until now all divisions
except the light-weight are ready for
the semi-finals, and only one match
intervenes in this competition. The
first semi-finals will be held tomorrow
in the wrestling room of the gym.
With all the semi-final matches due to
be settled next week, plans are being
made to hold the final match in each
weight on the main floor of the gym
a week from tomorrow.
BRIDGE PLAYERS TO HOLD

Prof. Wilgus Will Not Meet Classes.
Prof. H. L. Wilgus, of the law de-
partment, who has been confined to his
home with an attack of la grippe, will
not be able to meet his classes today
as he had expected.
Senior Laws Hold Dinner at Union.
At the senior law dinner held last
night at the Union, Prof. J. R. Rood
gave a talk on, "Reforms in the Justice
of the Peace Courts." Speeches were
given by members of the class and so-
los were rendered by R. S. Taylor and
H. M. Lautman. About 60 men were

promised for the annual home concert
of the Michigan Glee and Mandolin
clubs, to be given at 8:15 o'clock this
evening in University Hall.
The concert will be largely popular
in nature, and in an effort to attract as
large a crowd as possible to hear the
clubs in their last appearance before
their trip to the Pacific coast, the ad-
mission price has been placed at 25
cents, with a few seats selling for 50
cents.
On the occasion of their recent trip
to Saginaw and Port Huron, the Mus-
ical club men tried out a number of
novelties which will be used on the
western journey. All of these featur-
es, and several new ones worked up
since, will be on'the program tonight.
It is expected that the Midnight Sons'
quartet, which will consecrate its ef-
forts .largely to the anti-classical, will
be the most popular of the new num-
bers. The four men in this aggrega-
tion have been imbibing ragtime fea-
tures for the last week in preparation
for tonight, and their work so far is
said to be of a lively nature.
"Bill" Williams, '14E, is on the pro-
gram for a number entitled simply
"stunts." That Williams can manage
the stunts portion of the entertain-
ment was proved by the hit which his
act made at the recent Junior Hop
performance, and at the concerts on
the last trip through the state.
Tickets for tonight's affair have had
a rapid sale, and it is expected that.
many more will be disposed of today.
Admission cards are on sale at the
bookstores, or may be purchased at the
box office in the main corridor of Uni-
versity hall before the concert this
evening. No seats have been reserved.

was formed after the lecture delivered
here by Mr. F. H. Rindge, a Y. M. C. A.

fully organized, but a committee of
five, of which Arthur E. Gilman, '14,
is chairman, has charge of affairs.
William H. Maler, '14, who is direct-

deavoring to interest those who are
not members of the three patrols. Nor-

'13E, and Fred W. Hoogsteen, '14, are

the visiting nurse of the city, to uplift
the standard of unfortunate families.
The students are making their ap-
proaches to the workingmen through
the assistance of Mr. C. L. Young, the
secretary of the city Y. M. C. A.
Several engineers of the organiza-
tion have volunteered to teach classes
for men handling statipnary engines.
A new law requires these workers to
pass an examination, and it is to aid
these men that the engineers have of-
fered their services.

hall next week to discuss the various
phases of the work.

In a one sided basketball contest,
the junior law quintet last night out-
tossed the freshmen of that
department by a count of 32
to 17. This makes the sac-
ond time the 1914 men have defeat-
ed the 1915 aggregation this season.
The other game was protested on the
grounds that the first year men were
not notified in time to have their reg-
ular team on the floor.
The freshmen. started out in real
winning style, but the juniors soon
took a brace, and the first period ended
with the long end of an 18 to 10 score
registered to the upperclassmen's
credit. The second half was a walk-
away for the 1914 quintet which al-
lowed their opponents only seven tal-
lies to their 14.
Corey was the big point winner for
the'juniors, the speedy forward caged
the sphere seven times from the field
and took advantage of fouls by the
freshmen for a total of four counts.
Wright and Tower playing the two
guard positions for the winners, were
on the job every minute and made it a
difficult task for the freshmen's for-
wards to get a chance at the net. Be-
sides keeping his man safe at all times
Tower tossed the ball through the
circle four times.
Donelly at forward, and Heuser -at
center for the freshmen, played strong
games. The lengthy center had no
trouble in taking the ball to his for-
wards by clever dribbling and also
was responsible for four points.
The summaries are as follows:
