Organized under a call from Presi-

students spent yesterday afternoon in
a vain attempt to locate the missing
body of Miss Ella Rysdorp. The water
was rather high because both wheels'
on the big Barton dam were running,
and this made a close search impossi-
ble.
Last evening the hunt was contin-
ued, the men using torches. The dam
was closed after midnight, and it was
hoped that with low water, the party

WILL PROBABLY BE STAGED

Cast, Chorus, and Committees of 100
Men to Be Taken on

Permission was granted for the pre-
sentation of the 1913 Union opera in'
Chicago by the senate council last
night. The only stipulation is that it
must be staged either on May 10 or
24 and that the arrangements must
meet with the approval of the non-
athletic committee.
This is the first time that a Union
opera will have been given outside of
Ann Arbor. Efforts have been made
for a number of years to have the op-
era go out of town but the senate
council heretofore denied the petitions.
About 100 men will be taken to Chi-
cago, including the entire cast all but
16 of the chorus and only those com-
mittees that are especially needed. The
show will probably be given on May
10 at the Illinois theater and two per-
formances will be staged The men in
the opera will be taken in a special
train, which will leave Friday evening
arriving in the Windy City Saturday
morning. The return will be made
Saturday night.

Bill For Appropriation of $375,000 to
Erect Proposed Structure
Passes Senate 'Unan-
imously.
}
ACTIVE WORK WILL BEGIN
UPON GOVERNOR'S SIGNATURE.
Will Be Located on Site of Psychology
Laboratory; to Accom-
modate 1,500.
By unanimous vote the state senate
yesterday noon granted the appropria-
tion of $375,000 for a new science
building for the university. The bill
also passed the house by unanimous
vote Saturday afternoon but was not
taken to the senate until Tuesday. The
five day rule of the senate did not hold
as the bill was printed fand in the
hands of the senators a week ago last
Saturday.
The new structure will be placed
between the law and chemistry build-
ings and will take the place of the old
psychology laboratory. The building
will be of the same general design as
the chemistry building and will be
one-fourth larger than the latter struc-
ture. Accommodations will be made
for more than 1,500 students which
will exceed by 300 the capacity of the
chemistry building.
The plans for the new building have
niot been drawn but just as soon as
Governor Ferris signs the bill active
preparations will begin and the struc-
ture will be rushed to completion.
"I am delighted that the appropria-
tion bill passed the senate," said Pres'-
ident Harry B. Hutchins yesterday.
"The fact that it passed both houses
unanimously shows that the legisla-
ture and the people of the state are
with the university and interested in
its welfare."
"The passage of the bill by the sen-
ate is most gratifying," declared Sec-
retary Shirley Smith. "I do not antici-
pate any trouble with the governor and
feel confident that he will sign the
measure."
J.M. Barrett,'16, Kept Home by Illness
James M. Barrett, '16, of Fort
Wayne, Ind., while at home spring
vacation was taken ill with an attack
of the mumps. He will not return
to the university for at least two
weeks. Barrett is a member of the Psi
Upsilon fraternity.

other features on the trip.

"Never have the combined musical
clubs of Michigan enjoyed a more suc-
cessful or pleasant trip."
CAMPUS FLAG REGULATIONS
PASSED BY AUDITING BOARD
To Have Three Weather Flags; Deaths
of Officers to Be
Honored.
Resolutions requiring the campus
flag to be raised at 8:00 o'clock in the
morning and lowered in the afternoon
at 5:00 o'clock were passed' by the
auditing board of the university yes-
terday afternoon. Three flags are to
be used, a fair weather one of mod-
erate size, one for stormy weather of
small size and a large flag for special
occasions.
On the death of a university or state
officer, whom it is proper to honor,
the flag will be lowered to half mast
on order from the president or secre-
tary.
"I think that some appropriate cer-
emonies should be had in regard to
raising and lowering the flag," said
Secretary Shirley W. Smith yesterday.
"It would be a good custom to have
some honor society or committee from'
the senior* class in charge of the fes-
tivities. This is merely a suggestion
of mine and I hope that some of the,
Committees for the engineering ex-
hibit, which is to be given in the engi-
neering building during May festival
week, have been selected. Saul Saul-
son, '12E, as general chairman, will
have general supervision of the whole
affair, and will be assisted by the
chairman of the departmental commit-
tees. The following seniors have been
appointed to the committetes:
