Final Membership
Gathering.
PROF. H. C. ADAMS EXPRESSES
ATTITUDE OF FACULTY MEN.
New and Retiring Officers Give Short
Talks on Various
Topics.
Repeated outbreaks of the smallpox
epidemic have prompted the commit-
tee on university sanitation to arrange
for the free vaccination of all men and
women connected in any way with the
university Friday, Saturday, and Mon-
day, June 6, 7, and 9, in Waterman
and Barbour gymnasiums from 9:00
to 10:00 o'clock.
Numerous instances of the disease
have occurred directly after the vic-
tims had been warned to submit to an
innoculation of the vaccine, and con-
siderable discussion has been aroused
as to the feasibility of compulsory vac
cination.
President Hutchins has issued a no-
tice which will be posted on the cam-
pus bulletin boards tomorrow, in which
he declares: "While there is no occasion
for alarm, or for uneasiness even,there
is occasion for the highest degree of
care and precaution and for prompt
cooperation with the authorities in
their efforts to stamp out the disease.
The condition is such as to justify the
conclusion that cases of the disease
will undoubtedly follow. Vaccination
has been made compulsory in cases of
known exposure and it is earnestly
urged that the advice of the commit-
tee on sanitation be followed at once.
Dean Bates speaking on the legal
phase of the matter, said: "I don't be-
lieve the university can force the stu-
Jents to submit to vaccination, but it
can prohibit them from attending class-
es if they are not vaccinated. The
question of legality, then, can easily
be overruled."
Dean Vaughan stated: "Its up to the
Individual to protect himself from the
danger of smallpox when he is given
the opportunity, and society cannot
protect him more than he will allow.
There is no doubt that vaccination 'will
eliminate or t least check the dis-
ease, but co ulsory vaccination is
impractical ex pt in exceptional in-,
stances."
PROF. WENLEY WILL ADDRESS
OKLAHOMA GRADUATING CLASS,
Prof. R M. Wenley will leave for
Oklahoma on Sunday where he will de-,
liver the commencement address at
the University of Oklahoma, and also
address the Michigan alumni at Kan-
sas City and Oklahoma City. All ar-
rangements have been made for con-
lucting his examinations, both under-
graduate and graduate. He will re-
turn to Ann Arbor about June 15, and
will arrange to see students at his
home for consultation thereafter.
those interested in the game come sup-
plied next fall with all the necessary
paraphernalia.

der student control.
Under this scheme, which the senior
lits have also adopted, an attempt will
be made by individual members of the
several classes in the lit department
to have final exams in the rhetoric,
philosophy and economics departments
taken under the honor system. They
will take up the matter with the sever-
al professors and instructors, with the
idea of having it brought before the
class for action
Faculty men in these departments,
who have been interviewed, state that,
while they have no objections to the
honor system, they do not approve of
the means proposed to inaugurate it.
Prof. T. E. Rankin, of the rhetoric de-
partment, said last night that such a
method would be too premature, and
that discussion could not be allowed
either in the regular meetings of his
classes or at the time of the final ex-
aminations, because of the time that
would be taken up. Prof. Lloyd, of the
philosophy department, was of the
same opinion. Prof. F. M. Taylor of
the economics faculty indicated that
he would not consider the subject.
Selden Dickinson, president of the
senior lits, addressed the juniors at
their class meeting yesterday after-n
noon in the west physics lecture room,
and explained the purpose of the reso-
lution which was proposed for adop-t
tion. Karl Mohr, also of the seniors,
undertook the same task with the
freshmen. The plan will also be1
brought before the sophomore lits thisP
afternoon in Tappan hail at 4:00
o'clock.

His lecture will be based on his trip
to the South Pole and the hardships
endured from hunger, cold and lack of
comfort.
The lecture tour which Capt, Amund-
sen is now making is to raise funds
with which to make a trip to the
North Pole. A. lecture similar to the
one to be given tonight was delivered
in Detroit several months ago. Pres-
ident H. B. Hutchins presided at the

Touches on Relationship Betweet
America and Japan.
"A glimpse at the papers of thi
country during the past few weeks i
a proof that it is time western nation
learned something about the Orient,'
said Dean Greene, of the University
of Illinois literary department, in a
talk before Prof. Van Tyne's class ir
American history yesterday afternoon.
"Our relations with Japan have beer
most cordial in the past and will prob-
ably remain so."
Prof. Greene spoke on "The Pres-
ent Tarnsition in Japan." He de-
clared that American colleges should
teach more of the Orient as it would
help trade in the east and also give
western civilization a benefit similar
to that derived- by the Oriental stu-
dents in western educational institu-
tions.

Student Council Examines More Thai
200 Men For Misconduct
at Recent Affair
in Gyms.
NONE OF STUDENTS ASKED
TO WITHDRAW FROM COLLEGE
Twelve Men i! Ali Are Reprimanded
Three of Whom Get Special
Punishment.

The final report o' the student coun-
cil relative to the J-Hop riot investi-
gation has been completed. The coun-
cil examined over 200 men and al-
though several were punished, none
of the offenders were asked to leave
school. The report is only statistical,
no names being given for publication.
The official report, as submitted by
officers of the council is as follows:
"The student council announces that

ance at the J-Hop in, February of this

probably meet next week, and
at that time, besides the ef-
fort of the pro-conference men
to elect a new - chairman who will
be favorable to their policies, the stu-
dent members will attempt to have one
of their number named on the execu-
tive comimttee.
As the board is composed of four
professors, three. alumni, three stu-
dents, and the athletic director, the
student members believe they are en-
titled to a member on this committee,
and will make a determined stand on
this point. As they -are all pro-con-
ference men, and the board stands 8
to 3 on the conference question, with
the favorable faction in the majority,
the student members anticipate no
difficulty in bringing this about.
Prof. Patterson, acting chairman,
has promised to call a meeting of the
board next week, if such a move is
possible. The three alumni members
reside in Chicago, Detroit, and Bay
City, so that it requires some little
time to arrange a meeting. Director
P. G. Bartelme and Prof. Whitney are
also out of the city, and it may be im-
possible to get a quorum at this par-
ticular time. The reason for the new
members desiring a meeting before
the university closes was in order that
resolutions might be adopted for sub-
mission to the June conference meet-
ing; but this will now be impossible.
However, there are several other mat-
ters which will come before the board
at this time.
A member of the board, who did not
care to be quoted directly, stated last
night that the effort by the pro-con-
ference men to name a chairman from
their number would certainly be made,
whether the board met next week or
next fall. Prof. Aigler, of the law de-
partment, is the man most frequently
spoken of by the board members for
this position.
Senior Women Hold Breakfast June 20
Senior women will gather for the
final "get to gether" at their breakfast
at the Union June 20 from 8:30 o'clock,
until 11:00 o'clock. Dean Myra B.
Jordan and Miss Catherine Bigelow
will act as chape'rones. Two original
playlets will be presented after the
breakfast, which will be replete with
hits on the women in the class. The
list of toasts has not been arranged.
Oscar Beckman, '12, is making a
week end visit to the university. He

year.
"Over 200 men were examined for
misconduct there; the names of 16 of
these were submitted by the faculty
while the other names were acquired
by the council from other sources.
"The investigations into the actions
of all these men was pursued by the
council in a great many full meetings
and by committees and sub-commit-
tees. After full discussion of every
case, late in May the council voted the
following punishments, and to date
there has been no appeal to the facul-
ty: Thirteen of the men whose names
were submitted by the faculty were ex-
onerated, no one was advised to with-
draw from the university, and 'three
were punished. Of those examined on
charges presented from sources other
than the faculty, nine were punished.
"Of the 12 punished by the student
council one was advised or directed to
withdraw from all class and non-aca-
demic activities for a year; two were
put on probation or suspended judg-
ment with the provision that there
should be absolutely no misconduct
for a year, and nine were reprimand-
ed or censured before the council or
by its officers.
One councilman was accused of par-
ticipating in the disturbance, but close
examination showed him clearly not
guilty and accordingly the council ex-
onerated him.
- "The council's investigation did not
disclose the men who were on the ram
that broke down the door of Waterman
gymnasium.
"The council desires to express its
appreciation for the assistance ren-
dered it by the student body in this
investigation and is confident that in
future years it will receive even great-
er co-operation."
UNION PLANS FOR PROGRAM
OF SUMMER SOCIAL EVENTS.
Summer activities of the Union will
be in the hands of a committee which
President-elect Selden S. Dickinson,
'13-'15L, is to announce very shortly.
The committee's work will 'consist
mainly of social duties. They will take
charge of the dances which will be
held once a week, either on Friday or
Saturday nights. Any lawn fetes - or
other events of a social nature will
also be arranged for by the committee.
With more than a thousand summer .
school students, whose work comes
mainly during the day, there is plenty
of time for the social side and the Un-
ion plans to take the lead in providing
entertainment.
Tickets For Union Dance Now on Sale
Tickets for the Union membership
dance on Saturday night are now on
sale, at the desk in the Union. The
rules governing the dances will be
strictly enforced and such kinds of
dancing as are on the ban will not be
allowed. The so-called hesitation
waltz which so often interferes with
the other dancers will receive partic-
ular attention.Dr.and Mrs.Frederick R.
Waldron and Prof. and Mrs. Otto C.
Glaser, will chaerone.

Addressing his remarks particularly
to the 50 cap and gowned seniors at
the Union dinner last night, President
Emeritus James B. Angell said, in
speaking on what the future had in
store for the prospective graduates,
"one of the greatest secrets of success
in life lies in the ability to differ with
one's neighbors without losing one's
temper; to be big hearted and gener-
ous in one's estimation of others."
Professor Henry C. Adams, of the
economics department, said in speak-
ing on the attitude of the faculty, "the
Union is well worth the efforts that are
expended to keep it going; through the

influence of the Union, a university
spirit is being created that it would be
otherwise impossible to conceive of."
Edward Kemp, '14L, reviewed in a
general way the work that has been
accomplished during the year just clos-
ing. In his inaugural speech, Selden
Dickinson, '13-'15L, the newly elected
president of the Union, outlined in a
broad way the policy of the incoming
administration.
Karl J. Mohr, '13, was master of
ceremonies for the evening, Maurice
Toulme, '14L, and George Burgess,
'13L, talked on different phases of the
Union organization. 165 men attended
the dinner.
