Guides Will le on Hand to Explain
Working of Exhibits
to Visitors.
Hammering and sawing is making
the halls of the engineering building
ring with the noise of preparation, as
the committees of the engineering ex-
hibit work overtime in an endeavor
to get all the displays set up on sched-
ule time. Most of the features are
constructed and ready to put in place,
but the actual arrangement of the dis-
play booths has not yet been complet-
ed. Everything will be in place to-
inorrow at 10:00 o'clock, when a series
of blasts from the set of nine whistles
will announce the opening of the first
annual exhibit of the engineering, ar-
chitecture, and forestry departments.
The committees and guides ar pre-
pared to receive and explain the mys-
teries of the different processes to
thousands of visitors. Five thousand
20-page descriptive booklets, explain-
ing the displays and giving a brief
history of the engineering department
will be given to visitors as souvenirs.
Everything is being arranged to give
visitors from out of town, and stu-
dents and members of the faculty from
other departments, a definite idea of
the work accomplished by the engi-
neering department, and at the same
time to give sightseers valuable in-
struction on practical, everyday prob-
lems.
A continuous illustrated lecture on
lumbering and logging will be given
by the forestry department. The chem-
istry department will show a cement
plant in operation, and the whole pro-
cess of making the finished product
will be reproduced, The architecture
exhibit will be replete with sketches
and drawings by different members of
the department; plans of famous sky-
scraffers of the country are promised,
by a New York architectural firm, and
Prof. C. S. Denison's collection of pho-
tographs of wonderful engineering
works will also be on display.
The exposition will run continu-
ously from 10:00 o'clock tomorrow
morning until 10:00 o'clock at night,
if the number of visitors warrant. The
features needing power will not be
run Friday, but the standing features
will be on exhibition until Saturday
afternoon.7

This
The proposed plan for the choosing
of student cheer leaders was passed
by the student council at a meeting
last night. The details of the plan are
similar to systems in use in various
universities throughout the country
and are intended to select men as lead-
ers, who not only have ability, but
who are also popular wih the student
body.'-
According to the details of the plan,
two weeks before spring vacation, the
secretary of the council will publish
in The Michigan Daily a call for vol-
unteers from the junior classes for
cheer leader aspirants. These tryouts
will be instructed in cheer leading
methods for an hour a day for two
weeks by the present cheer leaders.
At the end of this time, a board con-
sisting of the present yell-leaders and
the managers of the various sports,
will'select eight of the candidates to
try out by leading cheers at the base-
ball games and track meets during the
spring.
Four of these eight men will be
chosen as cheer leaders at a general
student election to be held at the same
time as the election of student mem-
bers of the board in control of publi-
cations. The four men chosen will
elect one of their number as head
cheer leader, and the other three will
act as his assistants during the year.
In order to get the new system
started this year, the secretary of the
council has issued a call for candi-
dates to meet this evening at the Un-
ion at 7:00 o'clock The 'nen who will
instruct the aspiring cheer leaders'
this season are Professors Thomas
Trueblood and Richard HollistQr, and
L. M. Otis, '13M.

FEW CONTESTANTS,
TRYOUT FOR TEAM
Enough Underclassmen Do Not Turn
Out For AnIual Spring
Struggles.
CLASSES HOLD "PE" MEETINGS.
At yesterday's weighing-in more
than 100 underclassmen signed up for
the tug-of-war events to be staged
Friday, making a total of more than
500 who will fight across the Huron.
Today is the last day for weighing-in
and more heavyweights are needed to
complete the team. Scarcely half
enough men turned out for the relay
teams at yesterday's tryouts. A large
number of runners are needed from
both freshman and sophomore classes
and Robert L. Mayall who has charge
of the events urges all men of running
ability to be out at the final try-outs
at the fair grounds tomorrow after-
noon from 2:00 to 5:30 o'clock.
Freshmen will hold a mass meet-
ing at 7:00 o'clock tonight in the
west physics lecture room. The meet-
ing will serve as a final "pep" gener-
ator for the struggles and directions
will be given by student councilmen,
Hulbert, Brown, Mayall and Spinning.
Members of upperclasses will be pres-
ent to tell the first year men how con-
tests of the past have been won, and
yells will be practiced.
Sophomores will hold a similar
meeting tomorrow night at the same
time and place. The sophomore motto
of "veni, vidi, vici," circulated on
handbills, will be impressed on class
members.
In the tug-of-war the lightweight
teams will average 135 while the mid-
dleweight team will have an average
of 159 or 160 pounds The heavyweight
class will be comprised of 175-pound
men and heavier. In this year's con-+
test only steady pulling will be allow-
ed and the teams will not be permit-
ted to give a series of jerks and then,
lay down as in previous years. A meet-
ing of the captains will be held at the
Tau Beta Pi house tonight and the
personnel of the teams will be named.
The contests, which were to have been
begun at 3:30 o'clock, have been post-
poned until 4:15 p. m. because of ob-
jection of the faculty.

ed events .make an epoch in university
history, and from all indications every
one of the five thousand seats will be
occupied.
With the exception of the grading,
the new building and grounds are com-
plete. Evergreens were planted in
groups yesterday at the- sides of the
main entrance, and make a contrast
with th~e imposing white facade, while
within, all is in readiness. For the
festival too, everything is ready. The
Thomas orchestra arrives this morn-
ing, and will rehearse this afternoon
with the Choral Union The artists
will arrive during the day, and visitors
from all over the state are already
coming in numbers.
The present year marks the twenty-
fifth anniversary of Albert A. Stanley's
coming tow the university. In com-
memoration of the event, the Choral
Union will present to the university
a portrait in oil of Mr. Stanley by
Percy Ives. The ceremony will take
place immediately after the "Laus
Deo" for Chorus and orchestra, which
Mr. Stanley has written for the festi-
val. The presentation will be made
by Mr. Hoexter of the engineering de-
partment, a member of the Choral Un-
ion, and Pres. Hutchins will accept
for the university. The portrait will
be hung in the Stearns room of the
auditorium during the festival. Fol-
lowing the ceremony of presentation,
a flashlight picture will be taken from
the stage of the entire audience.
For the concert this evening, Fred-
erick Stock and Albert A. Stanley will
be the conductors, and Mme. Marie
Rappold, of Metropolitan opera fame,
the soloist. The program will be as

Honor committees of the three
classes in the law department at their
meeting yesterday afternoon voted
to give all possible publicity to the de-
partmental plan of honor system
which they expect to present to their*
classes next week for ratification.
Copies of the plan will be printed and
distributed to the different sections
early next week, and a vote will be
taken on it in class meetings the lat-
ter part of the week.
A sub-committee was appointed
which will draw up proposed
modifications of the plan sub-
mitted by the boards of class
presidents, and change ' it to fit
the needs of the law department. The
outline will then be submitted to the
clasess as adopted by the committees.
This will be its final form, which will
be printed for general distribution.
"In spite of the assertion of Frank
Landrey who claims to have seen Alan
W. Tull killed, we are not certain as
to the exact nature of the death. The
theory does not explain the missing
purse," said Coroner J. W. Rothacher
of Wayne county last night. He im-
