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."

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 DECISIVE VICTORY MARKS.

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- Down To Inglorious dhe Tune Of ro 28 2-3t MILE RECORD, 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 was practically conceded to the Itha- 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 in taking the shot put as Kanzler, the best of the Ithacan weight heavers, did not live up to his reputation. Haff dispelled all doubts as to his physical condition when he negotiated (Continued on page 4.) regents scheduled for Tuesday, but 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 STFOR OPEiRA ISLIGHT Plenty of Desirable Locations Still Available For Those Unable to Receive Pasteboards. board is present. .So it is evident unless almost unanimous predic are wrong, it will not be until next month before the university ers listen to the request and deter its fate. It is by no means certain that regents will act as the board and c the way for the measure to reach conference. It is known that som the regents have expressed opi against Michigan's return,and it w not be surprising to to see them re to change the makeup of the bo and so stop the whole proceeding. the other hand, the regents have r exercised their power of veto over board, but have generally accepted 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 up there both sides of the question be presented to them and the w] controversy will be fought over ag No intimation has been officially g out by any regent regarding how stood on the question, and it is likely that the campus will know fate of the resolution until the ac of the regents is announced.
