ney theater next semester.
Prof. L. A. Strauss decided upon this
play with the assistance of the play
committee at the meeting held yester-
day afternoon. The choice is subject
to the ability of the club to obtain the
proper sanction from playwrights to
stage the play as a student production.
This drama was first presented three
years ago by the Lieber company of
New York and met with wide success.
It is written by Parker. The selec-
tion was made with the view of get-
ting away from the staid and heavy
offerings, and to give the students a
play more modern and apt to attract
their interest.
An informal talk concerning the
genius of John Galsworthy was made
by Professor Strauss to the club, em-
phasizing Galsworthy's ability to show
impartial strength and the "poor aris-
tocrat."
Arrangements for the staging of the
monthly playlet "The Bracelet" on
November 12 are near completion.

The loss was not discovered until
yesterday morning, when the mem-
bers of the sorority missed their val-
uables.
They did not notify the Ann Arbor
police until yesterday noon. Mem-
bers of the sorority categorically de-
nied the information furnished the
police.
The articles reported to the police
include two small Swiss watches, and
one wrist watch; two diamond rings,
one of which was valued at $200.00,
and some currency.
The members of the' sorority could
offer no solution to the mystery. No
sound was heard during the night. No
place has been found by the police
where the burglar might have made
his entrance or exit.-
the local police have a full descrip-
tion of all the .missing articles, and
intend to make an exhaustive search.

TO NEARING GAMEI
Confident Quaker Team Accorded
Great Send-Off By Enthusiastic
Students
TO TAKE WORKOUT IN DETROIT
(Special to the Michigan Daily)
PHILADELPHIA, PA., Nov. 5.-
Leaving Philadelphia with the great-
est send-off ever accorded a Penn-
sylvania team, 24 players and four
coaches left today for the big intersec-
tional clash with the Wolverines on
Saturday. The Quakers are absolute-
ly confident of victory over Yost's men
this fall, and the demonstration given
the team on its departure showed that
the student body feels certain of down-
ing the westerners decisively.
The Pennsylvania squad will arrive
in Detroit at 10:15 o'clock, Friday
morning, and will take a light workout
at Mack Park Friday afternoon. The
easterners will not go to Ann Arbor
until Saturday noon, arriving just in
time to dress for the game.
The Quakers will ,start the same
lineup they used in the Swarthmore
contest, with the exception of Town-
send, who will be replaced by Harris
at tackle. The big score run up
against the strong Swarthmore eleven
has given the Red and Blue team con-
fidence that has been lacking all sea-
son, and the 24 members ,of the squad
are determined to down Yost's war-
riors in Saturday's struggle.
In Mathews, the Pennsylvania
coaches believe they have a kicker who
is the equal of Splaww, the wonderful
Michigan booter, and he will be used
if the Quakers get within kicking dis-
tance of the Wolverine goal. Every
man on the squad is in the best of
shape for the. big battle and if confi-
dence will do it, the easterners have
the game as good as won.

ram committee to secure the ser-
of Congressman Edwin Deiby,
of Detroit, as one of the speakers
the evening, while E. G. Kemp,
will be in charge to lead the

and a quarter.
New plans for the fraternity sectionj
of the 1915 Michiganensian, which,
were accepted by the inter-fraternity
council, will materially change the
make-up and contents of this year's
book. This section has usually oc-
cupied one-third of the entire book,
or four pages for each fraternity and
sorority.
According to the new plans, it will
be cut down to one-half its former'
size, which will permit the introduc-
tion of material of general interest to
the campus. It is planned to have
the 1915 year book an all-campus pub-
lication, as well as a senior class
book. The underclasses will be a
prominent feature in the make-up of
the annual.
Among the new features :which
Managing Editor W. B. Thom, '15, has
under consideration are: the inter-
scholastic, meet, the Women's League
pageant, commencement exercises and
reunions, senior swing-out, Penn and
Cornell football games, and "M" men's
par'ade; senior girls' play, junior girls'
play, football under-class pictures and
stories, post-graduate filler, convoca-
tions, mass meetings, cap and gown
pictures, baseball batting averages,
celebration after games, society initia-
Itions and cap night.
General tryouts for 'the "Kermiss,",
to be presented by the combined Wom-
en's League, Girls' Glee club and
Masques, at 8:00 o'clock Saturday, De-
cember 12, in Hill auditorium, will be
held at 3:00 o'clock this afternoon in
Barbour gymnasium. Mildred Rees,
'15, is general chairman of the enter-
tainment, with the presidents of the
above-mentioned organizations among
the members of the committee.
The program for the evening has
not been completely arranged, but will
consist of several varied numbers, in-
cluding character songs in costume
by the Glee club, dances and a short
play, to be given by the Masques. A
string-instrument orchestra, plans for
the formation of which are in the
hands of Helen Malcomson, '15, will
probably furnish music.
Women of all classes are eligible
to take part and those who have tal-
ents along these lines are urged to
try out. The signing up for voluntary
committees on costumes, music, etc.,
can also be done this afternoon. Wom-
en who wish to try out but who are
unable to appear today, will notify
Helen Ely, '16, telephone 378.
MISTAKE MAY GIVE BOAT SITE
Rowe Discovers University Owns Two
Additional Acres
Director Floyd A. Rowe, who was
engage'd in surveying land for the uni-
versity this summer, has discovered
that. two acres of land up the river,
near the place where the Boat club
regatta is held, belong to the univer-
sity.
This land, near Argo pond, was
deeded to the university about five
years ago by G. B. ,Burns, formerly
professor of botany here, to be used for
bathing and boating. It is expected
that a boat house will be built on this
land in the near future.
Professor Burns, who is now at the
University of Vermont, was instrumen-
tal in developing the boulevard sys-
tem about Ann Arbor.
argue before the Supreme Court the
case of the people, in the appeal of
Lawrence J. Damm, who was convict-
ed in the Washtenaw county circuit
court last spring, on the charge of sell-
ing liquor to students.
Damm was arrested last November
upon information furnished by Don
T. McKone, '16, R. J. Miller, '16, and
L. H. Tingay, '15D, and it was upon
their testimony that he was convicted.
It is thought that the arguments be-
fore the supreme tribunal will involve
the constitutionality of the statute for-
bidding the sale of liquor to students.
This law has been upon the statute
books for years, but, previous to the
attempt of the local authorities to
eliminate student drinking, no effort
had ever been made to enforce it.
A case against George Schaible,
proprietor of the Orient bar, on a like
charge, is now pending in the circuit
court.
PREPARE FOR FOOTBALL SMOKER
Over 30 Men Comprise Committee To
Arrange Fest
Preparations are under way for the
annual football smoker given every
year by the Union, in honor of the
gridiron warriors. I
Following custom, the smoker will
be held in the Waterman gymnasium,
Thursday evening, Nov. 17, and seats
provided for several. hundred guests.
Songs, yells, doughnuts and cider,
speeches, and various assortments of
smokes are scheduled on the program.
Lyndon will be on hand with his lan-
tern slides.
The speakers for the occasion have
not been decided upon yet. H. R.
Marsh, '15, is general chairman.. Other
chairmen are Paul Thompson, '16L,_
arrangements; H. H. Phillips, '16E,
program; J. S. Switzer, '16, publicity;
and Ward Peck, L, finance.
In an effort to bring out more fac-
ulty men, a block of seats has been
reserved. Not a large percentage of
the members of the faculty have turn-
ed out for the football smokers of the
past, and it is hoped in this way to
insure a large attendance.
If the present plans for the band
are realized, next year Michigan's Var-
sity. band will number 65, and possibly
100 musicians.
"We have every reason to believe
that our organization can become the
best student band in the country,"
said Mr. S. J. Hoexter, manager of the
Varsity band, when interviewed yester-
day.
"There is a wealth of material here,
and it is more nearly of a professional
calibre than that of any other institu-
tion. Service is voluntary, contrasted
with that of schools where band work
is undertaken to avoid military drill.
"When the band marched onto Sol-
dier's field in Cambridge last Saturday,
it was the first time in its history thatf
a fully equipped and properly trained'
band represented the University of
Michigan. Heretofore, we have sent
a delegation of musicians, but it was
not trained nor possessed of any libra-
ry."
