ITH REGENTS & NINE,
This afternoon's weekly Union pro-
grain will be featured by an exhibition
of Japanese sword dancing by T. Meri-
matsu, '15L and K. Tonouchi, '13, ,with
a characteristic double-handed sword
bout between the latter, and T. Yama-
da, '13. The other numbers will be a
violin solo by Rafael Suarez, '16E, of
Porto Rico,' several Spanish songs by
S. Martinez, '13E, and a mandolin and
guitar duet by Willis Connelly, '15L,
and Theodore Wood, with George Bai-
ley, '16, playing the accompanists.
The Sunday afternoon programs for
the balance of the year will be devoted
to musical and feature stunts, for it
has been decided that the speaking at-
tractions will be-,too heavy for the
spring months. With this end in view
arrangements have been made for the
appearance of the Cosmopolitan and
Glee clubs.
L. D. David, '14L, will represent
Michigan in the Hamilton oratorical
contest at Chicago April 4, speaking
against representatives of Minnesota,
Illinois, Northwestern, Iowa, and Indi-
ana.
This year's contest marks the re-es-
tablishment of the Hamilton club
eventa, which were abandoned six
years ago because of the excessive ex-
pense connected with them., The ora-
tors will be entertained at the club,
and the winners will receive testimoni-
als of $100.00 and $50.00, as well as
membership in the club.
Either Prof. Trueblood or Hollis-
ter will accompany David torChicago.
His subject, with which he won the
universitycontest is "The Social Re-
former."

Mr. T.E.H. Black, of the oratory de-

to give a, lyceum lecture on "Supply
and Demand" this afternoon.
Now that the question of a return to
the conference has been passed upon
by the board in control, the next
stormy sea that the measure must pass
through, is the regents. The regents
have absolute veto power over what-
ever the board may do, and they are
the only authority over the actions of
the board. So in their hands will rest
the fate of the return, until it gets to
the conference proper. Just when it
will be passed upon is a matter of
much conjecture, and it is believed by
many who are in close touch with the
situation that it will not be until the
April session that the board will dis-
cuss it.
There is a meeting of the board of

In fitting climax to the season's work,
Michigan triumphed over Cornell in
the annual indoor track meet in Wat-
erman gymnasium last evening by a
score of 43 1-3 to 28 2-3. Six firsts out
of the total of eight events were won
by the Wolverines, and from the shot
put, which was won by Kohler in his
best heave of the year, to the mile,
taken in brilliant fashion by John Paul
Jones, Michigan held the lead. The
shattering of the gymnasium record
for the mile when Jones reeled off the
distance in 4:19 2-5, was the stellar
feature of the competition.
Predictions of a close score in the'
dual struggle were nullified by the fin-
al count, which expressed practically
the same ratio of point getting efficien-
cy as the meet of last season. A year
ago Michigan took the meet from Cor-
nell by the margin of 41 to 31, while
last evening the score favored the Wol-
verines a slight degree more.
Several firsts were won by Michi-

gan in events which had been either
conceded to Cornell or listed as doubt-
ful. Chief among these was the half
mile in which Brown took the event
and Jansen scored third. To event

cans, especially when Carver announc-
ed at the last minute that illness would
prevent him from taking part in the
race. Jones, however, did not partici-
pate in the 880, and Brown had little
trouble in defeating Speiden, who fin-
ished second.
In the 35 yard dash, which was liste&d
as doubtful by many Michigan sup-
porters, Seward and Lapsley came to
the fore in great shape, and easily de-
feated Whinery and Reller; the Cor-
nell cracks. Kohler had little trouble

there are two reasons why it is claim-
ed that the question will not come up
there. In the first place matters are
supposed to be in the president's hands
two weeks before the meeting in order
to be brought up, and this action will
have but two days. But even if this
technicality is waived, and the matter
could be rushed through, it is said that
only a bare majority of the regents
will be present Tuesday and the mat-
ter is one of such importance that it
will not be discussed until the whole

unless almost unanimous predic
are wrong, it will not be until
next month before the university

its fate.
It is by no means certain that
regents will act as the board and c
the way for the measure to reach

the other hand, the regents have r
exercised their power of veto over

decision of those who are in '
touch with the matter.
So whichever way one looks at
matter it is a tossup. It is highly p
able that when the matter is bro

be presented to them and the w]
controversy will be fought over ag
No intimation has been officially g
