ROF. STANLEY
WINS TRIUMPH,

Second Night of May Festival is
Another Brilliant Performance,
With All Artists
Satisfying.
HILL AUDITORIUM IS A4AIN
FILLED TO ITS CPACITY.
Schumann-Heink and Florence Hinkle
(wry Leading Roles in
"Requiem."
Again last evening the Hill audi-
torium was the center of interest to
all Ann Arbor for the second concert
of the May Festival. Again the vast
hall was filled to capacity, and again
the tconcert left nothing to be desired
In point of performance, inspiration, or
enthusiasm. From the thunderous en-
semble of chorus and orchestra down
to the thinnest tone of voice or violin,
the ear never caught the faintest echo.
Chorus Achieves Triumph
In the Verdi "Requiem" the Choral
Union fulfilled the promise it made
on Wednesday evening by its impres-
sive performance of Albert Stanley's
Laus Deo." Mr. Stanley's conducting
was masterful, and his chorus was
finely responsive to every shade of his
interpretation.
In finish, in tonal modulation, and in
precision of attack, the chorus sur-
passed all its previous efforts. The
softly breathed accompaniment to the
opening theme of the violins, and the
long sustained chords through the solo
recitative in the final "Libera mo'
were beautifully intoned. In the spln-
did climax of the "Sanctus" the chor-
us rose to a superb volume with no ev-
idence of effort and with a triumphant
force.-
The wisdom of Mr. Stanley's judg-
ment in selecting the too-seldom heard
"Requiem" was apparent to everyone.
It is not all what our northern temper
would call sacred music., but it is rich
with all of Verdi's melodic and orches-
tral resources, and is above all pro-
foundly sincere.
Artists Please- Audience.
Miss Florence Hinkle in the soprano
part gave a performance that was
spect. Her art is supreme in its poise,
its restraint, and its emotional purity.
Her voice last evening was marvel-
ously pure and clear. Her high mez-
zo-voce notes were free, clear, and.
delicious to hear; and all down the
range of her tones there was perfect
smoothness, perfect control.
Madame Schumann-Heink won the
ovation which she always wins. Hers
is an art that seemingly can never
decline. She will always be the same
noble woman and the same noble art-
ist, and she will always move the
hearts of her hearers with that ap-
peal which comes from her own great
heart.
The tenor role of the "Requiem"
gave Lambert Murphy no very good
opportunity to display his finely man-
aged voice. His tones were well mod-
ulated and resonant, and his phrasing
broad and meaningful. Henri Scott
justified the expectation which his rep-
utation has aroused, and his singing
won high praise.
For the afternoon concert today
Mme. Schumann-Heink will be the so-
loist, and the Children's chorus will
make its appearance in "The Walrus
and the Carpenter." The evening con-
cert will be somewhat popular in char-
acter, with Signor Pasquale Amato, the
famous baritone as soloist.

YEAR BOOK IS
UNIQUE WITH
3,000 Students Are Listed With Refer.
enee to Pages on Which Their.
Nanes of Pictures Appear
in Annual.
MJIHINENSIAN WILL GO
ON SALE NEXT TUESDAY.
Volume Contains More Than 700 Pages
of Engraving and Reading
Matter.
One of the distinctive features which
will characterize the 1913 Michiganen-
sian is the 3,000 name index of every
student whose name appears in the
book, which is in accordance with the
ruling of the board in control of stu-
dent publications. Following each
name, will be printed the page or pag-
es upon which that name appears.
The Michiganensian is the only annu-
al in the country with this distinct
feature.
The Michiganensian will be put on
sale at the usual campus stands Tues-
day morning, which is earlier than
that of any other western annual. De-
spite the fact that this year's book
is larger and reppresents more
beautiful workmanship than any other
edition, the annual will sell at the
same price of $2..50.
This year's annual will be bound in
full black cow-hide pebbled grain
leather, stamped with the title and
university seal in gold leaf. The an-
nual contains 700 pages of engravings
and reading matter. A sample copy of
the book has been received by the edi-
tors, and because of the especially at-
tractive features, the annual this year,
in beauty and design, far outclasses
that of any previous edition.

LAKE MOHONK, N. Y., May 15.-
Paul Blanhard, '14, won the Nation-
al Peace Oratorical contest here this
afternoon for the central division of
states as the representative of the Uni-
versity of Michigan.
Vernon Welsh, of Knox College,
Monmouth, Ill., representing the
western states, spoke first with a well
organized oration on "Assurance of
Peace." Blanshard followed with his
oration "The Evolution of Patriotism,"
and in the opinion of his coach, Prof.
T. C. Trueblood, of Michigan, who had
charge of the contest, he never spoke
better.
C. Magruder, of St. Johns College,
Md., representing the eastern states,
spoke last on "Phases of the Peace
Movement." His oration and person-
ality made him a dangerous coupeti-

ENGINEERING
.EXHIBIT RUNS
AGAIN TODAY
Big Crowd All Day at Remarkable
Exhibition of Engineers and
Their Classes Are Again
Dismissed
P11ES. HU1TCHINS WORK WHEN
FRESH ENGINEER IS SHOWN.
Conductors and Board of Trade Aro
Coming Today From Detroit
and Cleveland.
With the automatic register indicat-
ing that 6,982 visitors had passed
through the halls of the engineering
building up to 10:00 o'clock last night,
the first day of the initial exhibit of the
engineering, architectural, and forest-
ry departments came to a successful
close. All day the corridors and the
exhibition rooms were filled to their
capacity with a crowd of May festi-
val visitors, and students and faculties
of other departments.
All of thespecial features were op-
erated, and the booths were arranged
so as to accommodate the large crowd
most efficiently., Guides directed the
crowd at every turn, and although
there was a little confusion in the
morning, at the beginning of the af-
ternoon order had been established
and all sightseers followed a definite
course.
Conductors and Merchants Coming.
Because of the visit of 1,000 conduc-
tors from the Detroit convention, and
the delegation of'50 members of the
Cleveland Board of Trade this morn-
ing, who are coming especially to see
the university and exhibit, the big
show will be continued in operation
from 9:00 until 3:30 o'clock this af-
ternoon.
As a result, all classes in the engi-
nieering department will be excused
for the day. All junior engineers who
are not engaged at the present on the
exhibit, are requested to meet at Dean
Effinger's office at 8:45 o'clock this
morning, to march to the Michigan
Central station to meet the delegation
of conductors, and act as guides to
them during their two hours' stay on
the campus.
Among the interesting features of
the exhibit are the miniatur e irri-
gation project, the cement plant, the
water turbines, the naval tank, the ar-
chitectural drawings, and the forestry
display rooms. The continuous illus-
trated lecture on forestry by Prof.
Lovejoy was attended by a crowd
throughout the afternoon.
Freshman Work of President Shown.
A curiosity is a design of a stone
bridge, by Pres. H. B. Hutchins, '71,
which was drawn when he was a
freshman in the engineering depart-
ment, in '68.
The electrical conditions of the at-
mosphere prevented the sending of
wireless messages, but if conditions
permit today, the two dozen which
were handed in during the day will
be sent this morning.
JUNIOR TRYOUTS FOR CHEER
LEADER UTO BE INSTRUCTED.
All junior tryouts for cheer leaders
must notify by post cards Harold S.
Hulbert,, '14M, 304 North Ingalls
street, before Saturday noon. From

Saturday afternoon, they will be in-
structed for two weeks. and will make
their first public tryout on May 30 at
the M. A. C. game. Four public try-
outs will be given before their selec-
tion, and the successful candidates
will take office in the fall.
