PROF. J. C. KNOWLTON WILT.
MEET CLASSES NEXT WEEK.
Prof. J. C. Knowlton of the law de-
partment will meet his classes in con-
tracts next week. He arrived in Ann
Arbor April 8 after his first vacation
in 25 years, his early return .from the
south being necessitated by the con-
tinued ill health of Mrs. Knowlton.
Prof. and Mrs. Knowlton left Ann
Arbor March 16, expecting to remain
in the south until about May 1, but ear
trouble contracted by Mrs. Knowlton
made the change in plans imperative.
The couple went as far south as New
Orleans.

MI. RENE TALAMON WILL DIRECT.
Final rehearsals are under way for
"Les Fourberies de Scapin," the Moli-
ere farce which will be given as the
annual production of the Cercle Fran-
cais at the Whitney theater on Friday
evening, April 25. Members of the
cast spent the spring vacation learning
their lines, and are now letter perfect
in their parts. The remaining two
weeks will be devoted to the finishing
and polishing process.
It is a typical farce of Moliere that
has been selected this year, and one of
his most laughable and spontaneous.
"Les Fourberies de Scapin" is a con-
stant favorite in France, and has in
recent years been much played in
translation.
M. Rene Talamon will again act as
director of the play. A. F. Hulburt of
the French department, well known
for his delightful comedy playing in
several other Cercle Francais produc-
tions, will take the title part of Scapin.
The two fathers, Geronte and Argante,
will be played by M. Talamon and Cy-
ril Quinn, and the two amorous sons,
Octave and Leandre, by Robert Tanna-
hill and Mark Wisdom. They will
make love to Misses Mildred B. Guil-
ford and Elaine Shields as Zerbinette
and Hyacinte, respectively. Waldo
Fellows will take the role of Sylves-.
tre, the valet of Octave.
CLUBS
Tryouts for Michigan's Varsity mile
relay team, and the freshmen mile re-
lay team, will take place Saturday.
This was announced by Trainer Far-
rell during today's workout of the
track men.
Definite time for the trials was not
announced by the Michigan train-
er, as he is desirous of
consulting with Captain Haff
and arranging the tryouts when
it is most convenient to all concerned.
The tryouts may occur late in the af-
ternoon, as Trainer Farrell does not
think it advisable for the men to run
soon after the lunch hour.-"'
Tryouts for the two mile team will
not occur until Monday or Tuesday
according to the trainer. Farrell
wishes to give the half-milers a little
more time in which to prepare, as
J Carver's inability to compete, has put
a little crimp in prospects for the
longer distance team.
Captain Haff may try out in both the
mile and two mile competition. Haff's
place on the mile quartet is assured.
It is intimated among the track men
that the captain may also participate
in the half in order to bolster up the
weakening team, if he can do the half
mile without weakening his quarter.
Michigan's Varsity mile quartet
did not fare well in the draw-
ing for positions in the re-
lay games to be* held April
26, taking fifth place. In the two-mile

House Passes Bill Granting Amount
Requested by University
For New Science
Structure.
SENATE WILL NOT TAKE UP
ME ASURE UNTIL SATURDAY
Secretary Smith Experts Favorable
Action by Upper
Body.
A bill appropriating $375,000 for a
new science building for the university
was passed by the house at .ansing
Monday afternoon. The measure is
now before the senate, but will not
come up for discussion in that body
until Saturday owing to a rule in the
senate that bills originating in the
house cannot be considered by the up-
per body until five days have elapsed
after passage in the house.
The amount which the house bill al-
lows is the exact amount that was
asked for by the university. Univer-
sity authorities do not look for any
opposition in the senate and are con-
fident that the appropriation will be
granted by that body.
"The appropriation bill has passed
one mile post in its journey to the
governor," said Secretary Shirley W.
Smith yesterday. "I do not look for
any opposition in the senate, and I am
confident that the governor will not,
veto the'bill should it pass the senate."
HUGH CHALMERS EMPHASIZES
IMPORTANCE OF PUBLICITY.
"The one great object of manufac-
turing is the successful distribution of
goods and successful distribution is
accomplished through publicity, which
is salesmanship and advertising," em-
phasized Hugh Chalmers, president of
the Chalmers Motor -company, in a
speech delivered at the Commerce
club smoker held at the Union last
night.
Prof, Jones Prepares Business Book..
"An Idea of the Administration" is
the title of a book now being'
prepared by Prof. E. D. Jones.
Three chapters, which have ap-
peared in recent issues of the
Engineering magazine, have been
published in pamphlet form as "Prin-
ciples of Administration in Business."
Almost wholly covered by sand, the
body of John H. Bacon, '15, was found
in the Huron river opposite the old
pulp mill yesterday afternoon by J.
W. Morrison, '14, and W. K. Wallace,
'15.. The body was identified as that
of Bacon by dark hair and an identifi-
cation card that was found in one of
his pockets. The body was in a good
state of preservation, considering the
fact that it had been in the water for
16 days.
The discovery was made at 2:45
o'clock. Morrison and Wallace were
rowing back and forth on the right
side of the river near the site of the
old pulp mill, when Morrison passed
what looked like a stone almost cover-
ed by sand. The water was low, and
a second glance showed that the
"stone" was the body of one of the
drowned students. The body was
brought to the surface immediately
with a pike pole.
Bacon's remains were taken to
Muehlig's undertaking establishment.
The father and brothers of the unfor-
tunate student have been in the city
since the tragedy and will take the
body to their home at Pontiac this
morning on the 11:12 train on the
Michigan Central.
Morrison and Wallace, the men
who found the body are two of the
party of Grand Haven students who
organized for the search, pledging
themselves not to stop until the re-
mains were recovered, or all hope of
discovering them abandoned. Both men
have worked steadily since the first
day after the tragedy, remaining here
during vacation to aid in the hunt.
They will receive the reward of $50,
offered for the recovery of the first
victim.
News reached here yesterday that
the piece of woman's skirt which was
found in the river last week and sent
Jto the home of Miss Ella Rysdorp for
identification, did not belong to -the
unfortunate woman. This informa-
tion tends to strengthen the belief of
the searchers that the remains of the
other two victims will be found above
the Argo dam. While it is impossible
to tell with any degree of definiteness
where the bodies will be located, both
Prof. C. E. Johnston, and Morrison,
who are leading the efforts to recover
the remains, state that they believe
that they will be found in the Argo
pond.
Search All Night With Torches.
The search which has been carried
on continuously since the accident, re-
ceived an added impetus with there-
covery of Bacon. Those engaged in
the hunt did not stop with the darkness
yesterday, continuing throughout the
night by means of torchlight. All boats
that could be used were engaged and
many canoes were also pressed into
service to accommodate the number
that sought to locate the other two
missing bodies. The light company
did all in, its power to aid, shutting
off the water at the big Barton dam
after midnight. This made the river
