Fitts, '14, Second Student to Become a Victim of the Dreaded Disease. d e v e x l e PROMINENT GRAD Thomas W. Palmer, Donor of Palmer Field, Died at His Home in Detroit Sunday. COLLEGE BUREAU TO PLACE WOMEN Nine Educational Institutions Active in New Organization Which is Opened in Chicago. PHOEMNX MEN HOLD ANNUAL ELECTION OF CLUB OFFICERS Members of the Phoenix club held their last banquet of the year last night at Fred Bessimer's, after which the following officers were elected for next year: President, F. L. Ferguson, '-14E; vice president, F. J. Lerch, '14; secretary, L. Catler, '15E; corresponding secre- tary, H. Bockstahler, '15E; treasurer, G. Sewell, '14E; sargeant-at-arms, C. A. Madden, '14P. Ex-president H. N. Todt, '13E, acted as toastmaster at the banquet, and C. A. Madden, '14P, J. G. Ferrand, '16E, W. M. Ferguson, '13E, J. P. Reader, '13E, F. J. Lerch, '14, and ACTIVE WORKER FOR UNIVERSITY|IICHIGAN ALUMNAE ON BOARD. The curtain has fallen on another season of victories and defeats on field and track, with the victories a source of pride to the Michigan campus, and the sting of the defeats removed by a consideration of circumstances. Start- ing with a small number of candidates, Trainer Farrell made every man count in his selected event, and developed to meet the Syracuse track team on a strange gymnasium floor, the best bal- anced squad that has ever represent- ed Michigan in this department of sport Injury on the heel of injury dis- turbed this balance, but every time, the "Gift from Ohio State University" was equal to the emergency, and in- stilled the spirit into the men that en- abled them to finish third with a crip- pled team, at the culminating fete of the track year, the Eastern intercolle- giates. The concluding action is to occur behind the drawn curtain, when the awards of the cherished "M's" are to be made. Following the policy decreed by the athletic board of control, the award of the letters in track no longer hinges solely oh winning a place at the East- ern intercollegiates, but goes also to winners of first place in the principal outdoor meet of the year and to mem- bers of the relay teams. The Cornell meet occupied the position of honor on the .schedule of the past year, but all fortunate enoungh to win an event in this disastrous melee, are eligible in other ways for the "M" track shirts, jerseys and caps. One distinction is to be noted between the awards for firsts in the principal outdoor dual meet, the relays and the Eastern intercollegi- ates. The winners of points in the in- tercollegiate are privileged to. have a yellow stripe sewn diagonally across the breast of the running shirt, while{ the others will wear the plain "M." Before the formal award of the in- signia is made, it is necessary for the athletic board of control to act -sep- arately on each name. Those who have fulfilled the requirements of the rulings on this matter and are in line for recognition are: Capt. Haff, Jan- sen, Bond, Seward, Kohler, Sargent, and C. M. Smith, with the intercollegi'- ate stripe. The plain "M's" go to Brown4 and Haimbaugh, who ran on the rec- ordAbreaking two mile relay team at, Philadelphia in April.

Fitts, '14, is the latest vic- tim of the smallpox, being removed to the University detention hospital Sat- urday with a slight attack of the mal- ady. Fitts was being treated last week for la grippe by Dr. Breakey, and Thursday morning the physician noted certain symptoms which made the case appear more serious than pre- viously diagnosed. Dr. Breakey im- mediately called Dr. J. A. Wessinger, and the health officer isolated Fitts for two days. Saturday, a final con- sultation was held, with the result that he was taken to the contagious ward. The Zeta Psi fraternity house, in which he roomed, was fumigated, and all the members were vaccinated. The house is not quarantined. "The need for vaccination can no better be shown than by this case," declared Dr. Wessinger,"Fitts does not know where he was infected, and for several days he walked around in total ignorance of the disease. Everyone is exposed to the same danger and it is for reasons like these that arrange- ments have been made for free vacci- nation of all students at both hospit- als, by the infirmary physicians, and the city health officer."; CATHOLIC STUDENTS CLUB TO 1 GIVE LUNCH THURSDAY NIGHT.

He was a member of the Michigan Alum- ni Association, of the Michigan club of Detroit and until later years was al- ways actively interested in university matters. ENGINEERS TO TEST NEW PUMP AT WATER WORKS STATION Apparatus Falls Short of Contract But Low Steam Pressure Was Employed. Recent tests at the old station near Barton dam to determine the duty of the new pump show it to be above par. The test was carried on by 40 mechanical engineering students un- der the direction of Assistant Profes- sor J. E. Emswiler. The pump ran 50 revolutions instead of the required 53, the duty at full speed was 2,800,000 gallons per min- ute or 200,000 short of the required standard. The figures are a bit below the re- quirements of the contract, but the steam pressure used in the tests was much less than the pump is capable of handling. The tests lasted 48 hours, the students working in shifts of eight hours.

Militia. PROF. GRAM TO HAVE CHARGE OF SENDING IN APPLICATIONS. Capt. R. 0. Van Horn, Who is Back of the Work, Spent Three Years at Michigan. Michigan men will have an oppor- tunity this summer to spend about five weeks in a military training camp under government supervision at a very nominal cost to them, according to a letter received by Pres. Hutchins from the war department at Washing- ton. The offer will be open to all stu- dents over 17 years of age who are physically fit for the work. Prof. Grai of the engineering department whom President Hutchins has appoint- ed to take charge of the matter will send in the applications of all those who desire to take advantage of this opportunity providing he thinks them physically able. The plan of the government is to have two summer military camps, principally for college men, one at the Gettysburg National Park, Pennsylva- nia, to extend from July 7 to August 15 inclusive, and theother at the Pre- sidio of Monterey, California, from July 1 to August 8, inclusive. The ob- ject is to give the men military train- ing so that in time of a national emer- gency they will have some practical knowledge of military affairs. The work will include camping and march- ing and instruction in military policy and the actual handling of troops in the field. Each man will buy his own uniform and pay his own board but the total cost outside of transportation to and from the camp will only amount to about $16. Instruction in shooting by practice on a target range will be giv- en and opportunities to have some training in riding cavalry horses and in riding artillery caissons will be of- fered. The instruction will not ex- ceed four hours work a day, the rest f the time to be at the students dis- posal with due regard to proper su- pervision and military necessities. It is a notable fact that Captain R. 0. Van Horn of the general staff of the U. S. army who is back of the prop- sition is a Michigan student, having attended this institution for about three years. All those who desire to take advan- tage of this offer should hand in their ames to Prof. Gram in his office at oom 322 new engineering building.

When, by a final decision of the con- ference question, Michigan's eligibili- ty rules shall have been determined, the athletic association plans to pub- lish and distribute booklets contain- ing eligibility rules, rules governing all athletic contests, field and track rules, and rules concerning admission to games. These booklets will be giv-I en to every student.1 Due to the delay in settling the con- ference dispute, however, the books will probably not be issued in time for distribution next fall. colorful confusion on a much-bedaub- ed artist's palette,-that is the im- pression one receives from a first view of the score or more Futurist concep- tion paintings exhibited in Memorial hall this week. Jerome S. Blum is the man behind the brush. "What an awful waste of perfectly good color!" murmurs the economical amateur artist behind you. "Humph!" grunts an unimpressionable engineer, in tow of a fair enthusiast, "looks to me like a free-for-all scrap between the British lobster-backs and a music- al comedy Mexican army." The unusual effect is gained by a liberal splashing in generous quanti- ties of the primary colors combined iri are noticebly scarce. The artist's con- ception of canyons and cliffs are re- markably unique; his rocks look like slag piles behind the Anaconda smel- ter. The exhibit serves a purpose, it is explained, in preparing one for the in- roads which Oriental ideas and color designs are making in modern dress, house furnishings, paint, and so on. After seeing Futurist paintings, one is more ready to sympathize with Bulga- rian neckwear, petticoats, and costum- es, Turkish tapestries, and peacock bonnets should appear logical to the layman. Yes, Rudyard, "it's pretty, but-is it 'art'?"
