MUST DRAW TODAY FOR CORNELL MEET i f ', .r f f I e PRESENTS ANNUAL CONCERT TO MANY Glee and llandolin Clubs Entertain- ment Given to Largest At- tendai ce in Years. NEW STUNTS FEATURE PROGRAM.

JUNIOR LAWS WIN FROMFRESH MEDICS Barristers Take Most One-Sided Con- test of Interclass Series; Score 41 to 18. PLAY J ENGINEERS FOR TITLE. By romping away with a 41 to 18 victory over the fresh medics last night the junior laws won the right to play against the junior engineers for the campus basketball championship Mon- day night. The game was the most one-sided contest that has been played in the interclass series this season. From the first whistle the laws took charge of the festivities and the medics had no chance to win. Cory, the fleet forward, was the chief counter for the laws. He located the iron circle ten times from the field and added one more point to his string by throwing a foul, making a total of 21 to his credit. Tower at guard for the winners also played a strong game, making six baskets and keeping his man harmless at all times. For the medics, Statz at forward played the most consistently. He made two remarkable shots from the cen- ter of the field. Seeley playing at guard also aided materially in the point getting for the doctors. The summaries are as follows: Though every class team entered in the four-cornered Varsity meet this evening has a group of loyal support- ers, campus sentiment seems to favor the juniors to win from the other three teams without the slightest degree of uncertainty. It is expected that the seniors will furnish good competition, but no intense opposition is expected from the sophomore and freshmen teams. The freshmen team was ex- pected to put up a good fight for first place until eight men of better than average ability were declared ineligi- ble by the faculty. Nearly all men entered in the meet are in first class shape accord- ing to Trainer Farrell, and from all indications the meet promises to be a lively one from start to finish. Inas- much as the meet will give Michigan students their first real opportunity to see the full strength of the Michigan track squad, and competition between veterans and novices, a large crowd is expected. Predictions of Meet Sargent will start the ball rolling by appropriating five points in the high jump for the seniors, and the remain- ing points will fall either to Perkins for the men of '15, or White of the jun- iors. First place in the short dash. would seem to be the personal prop- not been slightly injured in a collision with another runner. Trainer Farrell expects him to get into the meet, but in the event of his defection, Lapsley can be relied upon to cabture the points. H. L. Smith for the fresh, is looked to follow these two men closely. Craig may be in shape to win both the low and high hurdles, leaving the oth- er places to be contested among Greene, Armstrong, McNabb and the two Cohn brothers. Haff May Run in 880. Trainer Farrell waxes enthusiastic when the name of Haff, as a middle distance runner is brought into the conversation. He advances the opin- ion that Haff is not only one of the best quarter-milers in the country, but that with practice in the half he would rank equally as high. There is a possibility of Haff running the 880, tonight, but if he concentrates on the quarter, it would not be surprising to see the gym record in that event go by the boards. Baier and Jansen, seniors and jun- iors, respectively will trail Haff in the quarter, and Carver, with Haff out of the way, will hand the juniors the 880_ run. Uffer should come in for second or third in this distance. The seniors will get 5 more points in the mile from Haimbaugh, the juniors will get 3 points from Brown, and the remain- ing one point will lie between Rich- ards and Lynch of the freshmen. Through the efforts of Cook, the jun-I iors will have a first, added to their score in the pole vault, with Daskam, (Continued on page 4). DECLARES WILSON'S ADDRESS GIRATEST INAUGURAAL SPEECH After Tonight Athletic Association Will Not Guarantee Tickets to Upperclassmen. OFFICE OPEN FROM 9:00 to 5:30. Today will be the last day on which upperclassmen and members of the graduate school may procure tickets for the Michigan Cornell track meet of March 22. After today the athletic association has announced that it can- not guarantee an opportunity to get tickets on the first drawing. It is also announced, however, that on Monday, providing there are any tickets for the meet left,those who have drawn blanks will have an opportunity for a second drawing. In order that all who care to draw today rAay be accommodated, the office of the athletic association will be open from 9:00 to 5:30, with no intermis- sion for the noon hour. If there are. tickets left, the office will be open for the second drawing on Wednesday at 9:00 o'clock. Those who have drawn blanks and desire a second drawing must show coupon number 14 with the proper identification mark upon it placed there by the officials of the athletic as- sociation for the emergency. ECCENTRIC COSTUMES VOGUE AT WOMEN'S PARTY TONIGHT. Every number was applauded to such a degree that continued encores became a matter of course. The crowd was the largest that has attended a musical clubs' entertainment in a number of years, and the bubbling en- thusiasm of the popular portion of the program was soon communicated to the audience. From a purely musical standpoint, the number entitled "Keep a Goin'," by, the Glee club, was probably the best rendered piece on the program. The swinging melody of this selection, combined with the highly effective blending of tones in the closing strains, made this number the most pleasing of the entire repertoire offer- ed by the singers. All of the numbers rendered by the Glee club proved popular with the au- dience, but "The Tinkers' Chorus" came in for the largest amount of ap- plause. The work of the Varsity quar- tet, both serious and frolicsome, was also well received. The "Old Irish Song," a solo by Kenneth N. Westerman, '14 with the assistance of the Glee club, displayed the soloist's clear tenor voice to ad- vantage. The work of the Mandolin club, es- pecially, in "Naughty Marietta," and the following encores, contributed largely to the success of the concert. The offerings of the instrumentalists showed a marked improvement over the selections played by them on their last appearance here. The concert was announced as a popular affair, and the features intro- duced amply warranted this appela- tion. "The Midnight Sons' Quartet," although only organized one week, and still showing lack of polished work, made an excellent impression, and proved especially entertaining in its rendition of "My Ragtime Fireman." The stunts by "Bill" Williams, '14E, which constituted the fifth number of the program, also made a hit. The Musical clubs' treasury was augmented to the extent of about $400 by last night's concert. This money will be used to help defray the expen- ses of the trip to the Pacific coast next month. FESTIVAL SEATS GO ON SALE. First Block Sell for $6.50 and $3.50; to be Reduced Next Week.

Three bouts are schedule4 on the wrestling tournament for this after- noon. Those who will work on the mat are as follows: Light weight-below 133 pounds; Champ vs. Demon. Middle Weight-below 158 pounds; Bleich vs. Harris. Heavy weights-above 158 pounds; Watson vs. Handy. The match between Harris and Bleich will decide which man is to tussle with Amtsbeuchler for the mid- dle weight championship. These two middle weights battled or 45 minutes last season before Harris's shoulders were pinned to the mat by Bleisch, so it is sure to be a lengthy struggle this afternoon before the verdict is. given. The semi-finals in the other classes will be wrestled next week, so that next Saturday the finals in all weights can be staged. MAKE CHANGES IN ORGAN EQUIPMENT University Authorities to Add Echo Organ and Movable Keyboard for New Columbian Instrument. TO BE READY FOR MAY FESTIVAL In moving the Columbian organ into the new Hill Auditorium the univer- sity authorities are contemplating many changes in the equipment. Among the most important are the installation of a small echo organ and a new movable key-board. The latest type of movable key- board will be used. It will operate on 125 feet of free cable, thus enabling the organist to take any position he wants on or off stage. A small echo organ will be built high up on the ceiling, operated by the same key-board. With the excel- lent accoustic features afforded by the new building this combination should offer great possibilities to a capable organist. A feature of this supple- mentary organ will be a set of cathe-; dral chimes comprised of 20 notes. For the last six weeks Harry R. Law, representing the Hutchings Or- gan Co. of Boston, has been at work taking down the organ from its placeI in University Hall, in preparation for its removal to the auditorium. This end of the work is now practically completed. The ceiling decorators in7 the new building completed their work yesterday, giving the organ men a chance to get in. Mr. Law's force will soon be supplemented by seven expert organ builders, and work will1 be rushed to completion for the May Festival. The 4,000 original pipes will be put in place, and will be supplemented by" 500 additional ones, making the organ3 one of the largest in the country. An idea of the range of tone thus afford-E ed may be realized when it is consid- ered that the pipes vary in length from 32 feet to 3-8 of an inch.

Tau Beta Pi Elects First Men From New Republic. H. Y. Tang, and S. H. Waung, two of the 15 junior engineers elected Thursday to Tau Beta Pi, are the first Chinese students who have been hon- ored by the local chapter. Both Tang and Waung were sent by the Chinese government to this country in September 1910. They will return to China after graduation to serve the government for a period of five years in accordance to contracts which they agreed upon with the Bu- reau of the Chinese Educational Mis- sion to the U. S. A. before they came to this country. Tang graduated from the Canton Christian college, Canton, China, and Waung attended St. John's college, Shanghai, China. Millard and Neilson Win Prizes. G. F. Millard, '16, and R. H. Neilson, '14, won the prizes awarded to high men at the Union card party last night. Auction bridge was the game featured this week There were only eight ta- bles of players, a slight falling off from previous attendances, due no doubt to the fact that auction bridge is not played by so many as five hundred and other games. GRAD WRITES ON HIGHER EDUCATION IN LATIN-AMERICA Edgar E. Brandon, '88, who was sent by the -Pan-American union to get first hand information concerning higher education in the Latin American re- public, has returned to Washington after a trip which lasted nearly a year. He visited every university in Pana- ma, PeJu, Bolivia, Chili, Uruguay, Ar- gentina, Brazil, Venezuela and Costa Rica. He has given an interesting ac- count of the unique educational sys- tems and facilities found in these coun- tries in the bulletin of the Pan-Amer- ican Union. Now Secretary Shirley W. Smith's recent suggestion to the Michigan alumni of New York city that a prize be offered each year to the graduate making the most important contribution to the human welfare met with the enthusias- tic approval of prominent faculty men last night. While few of the professors inter- viewed offered any definite opinion as to what such a prize should be, there was a unanimous sentiment against a monetary reward. All maintained that a careful administration of the awards whereby no field of human endeavor would be overlooked was essential to the success of the plan. Prof. Calvin 0. Davis, of the depart- ment of education,proposed the institu- tion of a Michigan hall of fame in the Alumni memorial building, where a tablet, or bust or picture of the most worthy alumnus of each year might be placed as a tribute to his achieve- ments. "Such a prize if it Is offered," said Prof. Davis, "should be a mark of rec- ognition of worthy accomplishments rather than a direct inducement in it- self, as a monetary prize might' be- come. At any rate, any cash sum of- fered probably would prove paltry to the man who deserved it. Favors Tablet in Memorial Hall. "I believe that the erection of a tab- let to the most deserving alumnus each year would be a suitable form of rec- ognition. A room might be set aside in the Memorial building for this pur- pose." Prof. Henry C. Adams, of the eco- nomics department, similarly opposed a monetary prize, while heartily en- dorsing the plan. "Michigan has set a standard for modesty in recalling the deeds of her alumni," said Prof. Adams. "Although it has sent out many men into govern- mental affairs and the technical world, it has been the last one to blow its horn, and I should hate to see it begin now. "However, if properly administered, such a prize would stimulate graduat- es for action in fields other than com- mercial. For this reason I regard the scheme as highly commendable." erty of "Howdy" Seward, if he had Prof. Wenley Pleads for Ideal. Pointing out the danger that the practical interests might be permitted to crowd out the ideal, Prof. Robert M. Wenley pleaded for a varied repre- sentation on the board or committee which would make the awards. "The most wonderfful man that Michigan ever produced," said Dr. Wenley, "was James Craig Watson, the astronomer. At the present time- there is the danger that a man in such a field might be overlooked. "The plan is not only unique but ad- inirable. I sincerely hope that it will be adopted and carried out wisely." Prof. Filibert Roth, of the forestry department, held that while the move- (Continued on page 4.) PREMANADA DAS, '12P, TALKS BEFORE THE PRESCOTT CLUB Last Year Champs Out For Revenge and Expect to Tie Up Series. Owing to the forfeiture of two games by the laws and engineers to the sci- ence team the championship issue will be fought out this afternoon be- tween the lit and science teams at 2:30 o'clock at Weinberg's rink. The science hockeyites are virtually champions with a perfect record to their credit, but the last year cham- pions are out for blood and fully ex- pect to land the big end of the score today. If their expectations are rea- lized the series will be tied up neces- sitating another game to decide the better aggregation. President Woodrow Wilson's inaug-' ral address was referred to by Prof. . M. Wenley yesterday in his ethics ass as the greatest of these address- ever given.
