Famous German Dramatic Writer Will
Not Make His Tour of

Hermann Sudermann, the famous
German writer, who was expected to
speak this winter under the auspices
of the Deutscher Verein, has announc-
ed that he will not make his intended
tour of America. The Verein has se-
cured no one to fill Sudermann's place
and will probably not attempt to do
so. Several prominent Germans, how-
ever, will be in the United States dur-
ing the coming season and some of
them will undoubtedly deliver univer-
sity lectures here. Among these are
Warner Hegemann, planning expert
of Berlin, and the greatest living au-
thority in his- line; Prof C. Bezold,
famous orientalist from HeidelbeM,
and Heinrich Spiero, literary critic
from Hamburg.
The -Deutscher Verein has already
secured speakers two years ahead.
Next year Ludwig Fulda, well-known
author of "Def Dummkopf," the play
presented here two years ago, will vis-
it Ann Arbor. The following year Ot-
to Ernst, author of "Flachmann als
Erzieher," will deliver an address
here.

"JACK THE PEEPER" DISAPPEARS
No Trace of the Prowler Has Beeen
Found by the Police.'
"Jack the Peeper" has disappeared.
No, trace of the prowler has been re-
ported to police headquarters since
the first report was published in The
Michigan Daily..
At his last appearance, the peeper
was almost caught attacking a young
girl on Fourth avenue,but her screams
frightened him away just in time to
avoid capture.
The description of the prowler that
was given to the police department
was too meager to allow a general
search for the miscreant, but the en-
tire force was warned to be constant-
ly on the lookout. This seems to have
been sufficient, as nothing further has
been learned concerning the man.

MUCH

ROOTING IS EXPECTED.

Approximately 500 tickets for the
O. S. U. game were sold at the Ath-
letic association office at a late hour
last night, which assured that the spe-
cial train which was to leave Ann Ar-
bor at 7:00 o'clock this morning for
Columbus, would be loaded with en-
thusiastic Michigan rooters.
In spite of the threatening weather
yesterday a constant stream of stu-
dents poured into the office of the
Athletic association, to procure the
tickets for the O. S. U. game. Of the
500 tickets sold, nearly 100 were to
women of the university, so that not
only were the male rooters expected
to cheer the Wolverine eleven to victo-
ry, but the members of the fair sex
were counted upon to lend their mor-
al support to the team if not their act-
ual lung power.
"Whitey" Otis, Michigan's cheer
leader was seen traveling toward the
Ann Arbor depot at an early hour this
morning, carrying his big Maize and
Blue megaphone with which to direct
the activities of the Michigan rooting
contingent. Otis and his several as-
sistants plan to give the O. S. U. stu-
dentsa proper demonstration of true
Michigan spirit and from the enthu-
siasm which prevailed about State
street last night, it appeared that he
will have no trouble when he marches
out in front of the O. S. U. bleachers
this afternoon.
ENGINEERING SOCIETY
HOLDS ANNUAL BANQUET
Two hundred engineers ate and sang
and smoked at the annual engineering
society smoker held in the new en-
gineering building last night. Music
by the engineers in the mandolin club,
talks by Professors Riggs, Johnston,
Zowski, Bird, and King, with "Billy"
Williams giving special music and
"Eddie" Wilgus telling special stories
made up the basis of the formal pro-
gram, over which Harold McGee pre-
sided. Cider, apples, dough-nuts,
pretzels, and cigarettes were served in
the society room after the program in

To league all the present university
Unions together and secure national co
operation in founding others through-
out the country is the aim of a move-
ment launched at the Indiana Univer-
sity Union last week. The scheme,
proposed by -the board of directors
of that Union was received with great
enthusiasm at a mass meeting of the
members, and was unanimously en-
dorsed.
This is believed to be the last thing
necessary to "boost" the Unions every-
where, for it is planned that such a
federation will bring the students of
the various universities and colleges
closer together in working for a com-
mon purpose. To secure uniform or-
ganization and regulation, they plan
to unite the Unions which now exist
at North Dakota, Brown, Pennsyl-
vania, Illinois, Chicago, Wyoming,
Harvard, Wisconisin, Indiana and
Michigan, into a national federation,
which will make for a stronger nation-
al feeling among the students of each,
as well as arousing a spirit of co-
operation among alumni everywhere
in the Uiion movement.
It is said that the scheme had al-
ready been contemplated by several
universities, although Indiana is the
first to take action on it, and thus
far the plans have met with nothing
but approval.
"If a consolidation of Unions in
American universities will make a bet-
ter Union here at Wisconsin, I am
highly in favor of the plan," said
President Chester Wells of the Wis-
consin Union. "We are primarily in-
terested in the best interests of our
Union and Wisconisin students."
The plan was also warmly endorsed
by President J. H. Checkley of the
Illinois Union.The opinion there was
that each Union would thus benefit by
the experiences of the others in re-
gard to organization, raising money,
and general Union policy. Correspond-
ence would be instituted between the
different Unions and in that way, and
by congresses of delegates from all of
the federated Unions much would be
gained mutually in discussing phases
of Union life and outlining policies.
Educational Club Meets Monday.
The first regular meeting of the
Educational club will be held Monday
evening at 7:00 p. m. In room 105 Tap-
pan hall. Dean Karl Guthe, of the
Graduate school, will speak, All who
are interested in educational work
are invited to attend.

On account of the trip to Columbus,
elections in several of the clases were
held yesterday afternoon. There was
no evidence of so-called "peanut poli-
tics," and- with few exceptions, the
elections were characterized by com-
yaratively little excitement and medio-
cre interest. Elections in other
classes will be held today and at-var-
ious times next week. The fresh lits
held nominations yesterday afternoon
and started their political career by
deciding. upon clean politics, following
the step taken by upperclassmen. Fol-
lowing are the election results by
classes:

nedy; secretary, J. R. Conley; treas-
urer, Clare Retan; baseball manager,
V. G. Wahlheter; basketball manager,

baut; oratorical delegate, E.E. Penzel;
sergeant-at-arms, R. J. Simmons. For
the office of vice-president, W. T. Bie
received 68 votes, and J. L. McDowell
77, and under the class constitution,
another vote will be necessary, as
neither received a majority.
Senior engineers: president, E. T.
Lazear; vice-president, no election;
secretary, R. R. McMath; treasurer,
L. 0. Waite; track manager, F. L.

COMEDY CLUB PLANS
FOR YEAR'S PLAY
"Money," Sir Bulwer Lytton's Comedy
Will Be Given T'his
Year.
MANY OLD PLAYERS ARE BACK.
Earnest preparation is now afoot
for the finding of material to take the
roles in "Money," Sir Bulwer Lytton's
comedy, which the Comedy club has
chosen to produce this year. Tryouts
will begin under the direction of Pro-
fessor L. A. Strauss of the English de-
partmerit and a committee chosen
from the Comedy club, They will be
held in Sarah Caswell Angell hall
Thursday at 4:00 o'clock and will be
conducted on subsequent days it the
turnout justifies it.
"Money," is one of the master farc-
es of Sir Bulwer Lytton and dates to
the time of 1840. As a comedy of man-
ners of that period it satirizes the
lust of gold, and 'the resulting intrig-
ues.
4 This play was presented two years
ago by an all star cast on the occas-
ion of the coronation of the English
king. Detailed information regarding
the costuming of the production has
been secured by the management of
the Comedy club, and fac-similes of
these costumes will be used by the
cast this year. Arrangements are al-
ready, afoot for the, securing of the
necessary and appropriate scenery for
the settings of the play, and books
have been ordered which are expected
to be in the hands of the prospective
'cast within two weeks' time.
Mr. Bert St. John, the favorite
Detroit coach, will take charge of the
production, and work will be begun
as soon as the different parts can be
assigned.
Prospects for the year are especi-
ally rosy. Among the old players who
have starred on the local boards, are
Isabelle Rizer, Mary Drue, and
Marguerite Stanley, Dion Birney, Dav-
id Cohn, Donald Kiskadden, Clay Wil-
ber, and John Syverson.
The club will feel the absence of
Arthur G. Cohen, the promising Thes-
pian who left college last year, and
who is now engaged by the Jack Bar-
rymore Co., in a tour of the United
States.
