DAVID SECOND IN
HAMILTON CONTEST
Michigan Man Places Well in Chicago
and is Awarded a0
TestimonIl.
HIS SPEECH WAS TOO RADICAL.
Louis D. David, '14L, was awarded
second place and a testimonial of $50
in the Hamilton Oratorical contest at
Chicago, April 4. Howard W. Jones,
of Wisconsin, won the contest with his
oration on "Insurgency," and received
an award of $100.
Wisconsin received two firsts and a
third; Michigan, two seconds and a
third; and Northwestern, a first, sec-
ond, and fourth. The tie for second
place in standing was broken by
Michigan on percentages.
"It was an exceptionally good con-
test, but I expected David to win,"
said Prof. Hollister, on returning from
Chicago. "Jones had the best organ-
ized speech, but on the the other hand
our man made the strongest impres-
sion on the audience, and was the
most effective in delivery.
"The judges were all lawyers or
members of the bench, and Jones,
speaking first, in a conservative man-
ner and upon a conservative subject,.
made more of an impression upon
them than upon the audience; while
David's subject, 'The Social Reform-
er,' and his radical treatment of it,
was evidently not so much to the lik-
ing of the members of the bar who de-
cided the contest."
Walter F. Olds, an old honor debater
against Northwestern, presided at the
contest, which was held at the Haml--
ton Club. There was a large audi-
ence, and all five speeches were well
received.
ANTI FRATERNITY BILL IS
TURNED DOWN IN WISCONSIN
Greek letter organizations will con-
tinue to exist at the University of
Wisconsin, at least until the next ses-
sion of the state legislature several
years hence. By a vote of 57 to 42 the
assembly of the state indefinitely
postponed the Anderson proposition
to abolish fraternities at the Univer-
sity of Wisconsin. Practically all
agitation along this line is thus end-
ed, following months of long and
wearisome debate. This final post-
ponement of the proposed legislation
means the probable killing of the bill,
since the question has been viewed
from all possible angles, many and
varied amendments considered only
to be cast aside, and no satisfactory
agreement reached.

WIRELESS PLANT
ONLY FLOOD LINK
For Four Days All News From Ohio
Came by Way of University
Radio-Staioni.
AIDS G)VER ME NT I NSPECTl(ON.
The University wireless station
proved its value during the Ohio
floods, when for four days it was the
only means through which news from
the submerged cities could be given to
the outside world.
Amateur operators in the flooded
district would send their mnessa es to
Columbus, to the station at Ohio State
niversity, from where they were
sent to the local plant. Here the mes-
sages were given over to the Western
Union Telegraph company and sent
by them to all parts of the world.
Over a thousand words of press mat-
ter were received and sent, and near-
ly half a hundred private messages
were relayed to their destinations.
Bulletins which were sent to the
newspapers of all the large cities ap-
peared on the front pages; bulletins
also were sent to liners on the Atlan-
tic keeping the passengers on board
the ships informed of the develop-
ments in the flooded district.
The radio-station would be of great-
ar value, however, if it were a com-
mercial station, with an operator con-
tinually on duty. As it has the most
efficient receiving and sending appa-
ratus in the middle west, and is prac-
tically the only station which can
communicate with all parts of the
great lakes, it would be of extreme
value in calling for aid in case a ship
would be disabled when out of reach
of all other land stations.
At present it is also aiding the gov-
ernment inspector in keeping ama-
teurs from using forbidden wave
lengths, that is, waves above 600 and
less than 1600 meters long, which siz-
ed waves are reserved for government
use. The local operator, who can
easily measure the wave lc'ngths, re-
ports all infrin ements o the law to
the government inspector at Cleve-
land.
hILL AV1ITORIUM FINISHED
EXCEPT FOR PLACING SEAT
Except for the installation of seats
on the main floo r,the Hll auditorium
is completed. Oan account of the
cleaning-up work, however, the build-
ing will not be open to the public un-
til the May Festival.
All scaffolding is down, revealing
a great dome-shaped ceiling studded
with a block "1" in the center. The
decoration is in harmony with the ex-
ternal architecture. Two shades of
blue and buff are used with numerous
gold embellishments.
The Columbian organ is nearly in-
stalled and will be in readiness May
festival time.
Physical Exams Are held This Week.
Final physical examinations will be
made at Waterman gym this week.
All freshmen taking gym work should
report immediately and make arrange-
ments for this examination.
ADVISORS AND FRESHMEN
TO HOLD SMOKER AT UNION
Senior advisors and all freshmen
will hold an informal get-together in
the nature of a smoker at the Union
on Thursday night at 7:30 o'clock.
The purpose of the affair is to enable
the freshmen to get acquainted with
the fourth year students and to dis-
cuss the merits of the advisory sys-
tem. Short talks will be given by
members of both classes and the
freshman orchestra will render a few
selections.
Tickets for the smoker have been
mailed to every senior advisor and
may be obtained by the freshmen for
25 cents. In case a freshman is not
notified by his advisor, he is invited
by the committee in charge, to par-
ticipate in the gathering.
Tarneto Leave
When you discover you are not dealing with a one-price store,
it's time to leave. 1\ concession in price may look like a bargain.
It is not. It means the first price was not the real one. It means
you may get a second or third reduction, if you are persistent.
